Indian media said the F-31 is better MiG-29K Indian aircraft carrier has an advantage than China

India Indrus website reported on December 5 that the aircraft carrier force in its infancy in China and India, the two countries still have a long way to go before the formation of the mutual threat of potential of the World Wide Web. Carrier pilots, especially China, which not only do not have enough carrier aircraft, did not have the aircraft carrier operating experience Western defense analysts have even pointed out, China to set up one is really special task forces, also 25 years .
　　Indian Navy aircraft carrier force fell to no
　　February 19, 2010, the Indian Navy has four carrier-based MiG-29K fighters for its introduction of the "Black Panthers" squadron. However, the place is not the MiG-29K fighters to take off the aircraft carrier. Developed by Russia this interceptor range of over 3000 km, eventually deployed ashore test site Hansa naval base in Goa, India.
　　The reason why the powerful MiG-29K fighter became the "landlubbers", because the procurement in India used Russian aircraft carrier "Admiral Gorshkov" / "Vikram Muddy Teia" not yet in place. Vikram Muddy Teia "is not yet in place, plus" virrat "aircraft carrier in dry dock much longer than the time at sea, resulting in the Indian Navy's aircraft carrier force dropped to zero. Even taking into account both Italy and Thailand maintain the aircraft carrier, Indian Navy officials must take seriously the India's aircraft carrier vacuum.
　　Fortunately, in the process of building a blue-water navy, India was able to rely on imports naval engineering and technology, as well as the offshore platform jointly developed with other countries, mainly Russia. Although India has built a large number of frigates and destroyers, but these weapons platform equipped with Russian weapons. Popular technology in nuclear-powered submarines, stealth warships and aircraft carrier, India again turn to Russia, because in these arms, India can not spot purchases products. "Arihant class submarines," Vikrant class aircraft carrier, the Delhi class destroyers as well as the "Brahmos" supersonic cruise missile (including hypersonic Edition) are some examples of the successful application of the Russian technology in India.
　　Chinese Navy aircraft carrier the power of high-speed upgrade
　　It is in this context, the Chinese Navy on August 10, 2011 to receive the first aircraft carrier "Liaoning". After one year, the Chinese aircraft carrier force at full speed upgrade: November 25, 2012, the Chinese F -15 fighter first successful first ship aircraft carrier. In fact, the reason for China to use so long to be fitted out aircraft carrier, completely serious impact because the PLA Navy's maritime theory by the Soviet Navy strategic considerations. Soviet aircraft carrier is too expensive and too bulky, it is easy to be anti-ship missile attack. According to this line of thinking, if a $ 1 million worth of missiles able to sink a $ 1 billion worth of aircraft carrier, it is best to be fitted out 1,000 such missiles, rather than one vulnerable to attack aircraft carrier. Even if these missiles, only one percent hit the target, the enemy's aircraft carrier also will undoubtedly corpse Shen sea.
　　However, the era in China is still very poor, the pursuit of the aircraft carrier is the pursuit of material comfort, then trillion of deposits, the Bank of China and China is difficult to resist the temptation of the aircraft carrier. When Ukraine should have been completed in 30% of the "Varyag" Soviet-made aircraft carrier disposed of as scrap metal, the opportunity came. In 1998, Macau, China, Chong-law travel company requires the Ukraine aboard the aircraft carrier sold to them, said the carrier will be converted into a floating casino. After that, the company got a $ 20 million "Varyag" aircraft carrier. "Varyag" in just 12 years, China's shipbuilding industry put complete renovation the continued construction became "Liaoning USS.
　　Now than a few decades ago, India more attention to China, this trend is commendable, but it can not be too alarmist. "Liaoning" aircraft attracted the attention of the "threat" of India looms. Chinese J -31 stealth fighter better than the Indian Navy's MiG-29K fighter is a rash statement. This is because the F -31 fighter just to verify the machine, away from the actual deployment of 10 years, while the 4 + + generation of MiG-29K fighters are battle tested fighter, but also have the unique ability to search stealth fighter.
　　Despite the "Liaoning" USS bulky, but the lack of aircraft carrier operations technical experience, suggesting that the carrier is more likely to be used as a training ship, rather than combat mission. Chinese media, "the Global Times quoted a Chinese military expert as saying," Liaoning "aircraft carrier does not have to perform tasks, it needs more adaptive to enhance its combat effectiveness. In contrast, as early as May 18, 1961, India had already mastered the carrier aircraft taking off and landing on the aircraft carrier, more than half a century earlier than the Chinese.
　　Moreover, China does not have enough aircraft, but also lack of access to the knowledge required pilots to take full advantage of its first aircraft carrier. Without experienced pilots "Liaoning" aircraft carrier is likely to have only limited military utility. Obviously, as China's first aircraft carrier, "Liaoning" mainly used to help the Chinese navy master maritime aviation tactical.
　　In addition to the carrier-based air wing, must also provide air, surface and underwater protection for Liaoning "aircraft carrier to protect the aircraft carrier logistical and training in the operation of the aircraft carrier's crew. Western defense analysts have pointed to the formation of a positive really special task forces, also 25 years. However, the outside world can not underestimate the ability of China. In fact, fitted out in new weapons systems, the speed is amazing. Only 8 years successfully cloned F -15 fighter. Therefore, its completely may be compressed to create a task force of time.
　　India ahead of China catapult off
　　Russia's far-reaching impact on the Indian and Chinese naval ships from the two navies have adopted the Russian or Soviet-style design, it will be able to see that. Currently, the Navy aircraft carriers in India and China have adopted the short takeoff blocked landing (STOBAR) mode. All of the former Soviet Union aircraft carrier, this carrier aircraft taking off and landing mode, but you can not take off the heavy-duty carrier-based aircraft. This constitutes a serious limitation payload carrier aircraft, is not conducive to the use of early warning aircraft. Taking into account the vulnerability of the aircraft carrier itself, there is no early warning aircraft, the wartime aircraft carrier's life will be reduced from days to hours. "
　　However, India has announced its second domestic carrier ship, the displacement of 65,000 tons, "Vishal" aircraft carrier, will catapult off, the block cable to help reduce (CATOBAR) mode. This is a huge technological advances. According to the College of American Naval Fighting reported that carrier-based aircraft catapult design must be very precise, effective work must be able to complete, with an American expert saying is, "99 minutes is equivalent to fail." The report also stressed that must often adjustment the the aircraft catapult to adapt to the specific aircraft type and total.
　　In this area than the Chinese navy, the Indian Navy has an advantage. Aviation Week magazine reported that the issue of the installation of a steam catapult for "Vishal" aircraft carrier, Northrop Grumman will provide India with the help of the concept of integration. (This is typical of reciprocity, Northrop Grumman hopes India able to purchase the E-2C "Hawkeye" early warning aircraft).
　　After decades of watching and suspicion, India and China have developed the aircraft carrier force development route. As Chinese naval military academic researcher Li Jie colonel said, "from the big countries towards power, can not live without the aircraft carrier."
