New episodes every Monday and Friday! Feel free to comment below for discussion and debate. CORRECTION: The guns on the patrol boats are NOT 5 inches! Sorry! Transcript 0:00 Intro ever since the end of World War II the dominant force in the Pacific Ocean has been the United States Navy their large carrier fleets and overseas baces make them kind of second the none in terms of power projection across the region however a new power has started challenging America's dominion over the waves across the whole region and that power is China China now has a modern Fleet and a larger Fleet than the United States but are they really that powerful today on World Made Simple we'll take a look at the different ships doctrines and ideas being used by the Chinese Navy today we'll take a look at the state of the people's Liberation Army Navy better known as the Chinese The Chinese Navy Navy hey guys bill here welcome back to another episode and today we're talking about the people's Liberation Army Navy couple of you guys just went wait hold up Army Navy yeah China's a weird way of labeling their armed forces the United States it's the United States armed forces in South Africa it's the South African Defense Forces in China 1:00 it's the people's Liberation Army so you basically just staple whatever the specific fighting force is on that so people's Liberation Army Navy people's Liberation Army Air Force you just scrap on whatever it is so it's not a part of the army it's just the title of the Armed Forces China so Chinese Navy people's Liberation Army Navy same thing all right clearing that up so next thing I really want to talk about before moving on to the specific ships and assets that the Chinese Navy has is kind of a little bit of backstory on why why things with the Chinese Navy have escalated and it goes back to the 1980s because 1980s China opened up to the world and they went from essentially being worried about what's going on in their own country to realizing that they have a lot of influence abroad and they wanted to start using this influence and the best way to do that is by having Maritime power in the Pacific you have to have a strong Navy to basically do anything and in the 1990s China started building that na they got the first steps off the ground in that era but it 2:01 really took off during the early 2000s and the 2010s and today China has the largest navy of the world ranking around 700 ships give or take so really big Fleet biggest Fleet in the world today what's in it let's start with the essentially Coastal forces because this is where China gets a lot of those numbers for out of their entire Navy nearly half of the ships fall into this category we're going to start with the smallest first and then move our way up and the smallest is going to be Patrol boats I mentioned this a little bit in the American Navy video America doesn't really have Patrol boats China loves them and loves them quite a bit they have over 150 of these things now for anyone going so are these just like really fast speedboats kind of um you basically strap a 5-in gun to them a couple missile pods is at least as many it can fit on board and just fire everything you can off of these China's most prolific class is the Hub class it's basically just a very fast speed 3:00 meant to go up to enemy ships unload everything and then run like Haack because they're not well armored which means if they get hit they're pretty much sunk so they're meant to kind of weave and Dodge out and into of the Chinese Coastline and use the terrain to their advantage and this is a pretty effective design for this and this is also something that China's invested heavily in but you really can't get this type of ship too far beyond the Chinese Coastline so they're restricted to China these 150 types of ships are not going to be leaving the Chinese Coast now the next stage up is going to be Corvettes and these can go a little bit further off the coastline but not by much and the Chinese have the type 56 and the type 56 is a decent design it's relatively modernized for the most part and the Chinese have been able to use it to great effect and they're actually multitasking with there's a total of 72 of these ships 22 of them actually been transferred to the Chinese Coast Guard so interesting design and looking like they're going to be used for a couple years to come but they'll probably be 4:00 replaced by Something New by the Chinese Navy I guess in the 2030s but Chinese Corvettes are not kind of the end of the line when it comes to Coastal the next size up in terms of coastal defense is going to be frigs now we talked a little bit about frigs for the United States how America really has none the Chinese have 42 of these these vessels are meant to basically ensure China's local defense at a large scale ship so Patrol boo Corvette fr that's going to be your largest kind of coastal Patrol and Coastal protection ship so the Chinese Navy is going to keep these vessels well armed and this is going to mostly be the type 54a designated as the I'm going to apologize for any mispronunciations now uh jingai two class there's 35 of these in active service within the Chinese Navy they have a couple of smaller ones below that the type 54 53 but the main one they use is the 54 and they're coming out with a new variant of this being the 54b the Chinese Navy is 5:01 focused a lot on this smaller stuff because it's meant to protect the Chinese Coastline specifically and they want to make sure that they can basically Patrol their own area so this includes their claims in the South China Sea the island that shall not be named because YouTube doesn't like it and even reaching up to sangoku Islands in Japan so a large swath of territory is able to be covered by the ships that's over 270 Destroyers ships within their Fleet now the next stage up from this kind of starts our Blue Water side of things and that's going to be destroyers the Chinese Navy has 42 destroyers in their Fleet and unlike the American Fleet which focuses on one class being the Arley Burke the Chinese have actually been developing their own for a while now this goes back to luhu class and all the way to Soviet designs into our newer ships that we see from the Chinese Navy China's newest Destroyer model specifically is known as the luong 3 and the luong 3 is a kind of equivalent to the Arley B there's 25 of 6:00 them in active service with six more under construction and three that have been launched so they're serious about the ship fets additionally they're going to be building 30 plus of these so more than half of their Force right now is going to be comprised of this type of Destroyer this is a pretty potent force and it has the range comparable to the Arley Burk as well so this is the first ship that can get kind of outside of China properly however there is a problem and that is because they have so many different types of Destroyers this makes Logistics a little bit difficult so if you have a part that breaks on a luho class and a part that breaks in a luong class they're not going to be the same part so this means that you kind of got to have a separate supply chain just to make sure these ships are operating and this will be a headache for China if a warer breaks out this is why they're Expediting the luang 3 into production and trying to get it to replace all their older Destroyer classes so that's a destroyers but there is one little other kind of sneak in thing that they have have here and that's a destroyer 7:02 that technically qualifies as a cruiser the new renh high class being around 11,000 tons is the largest surface combat in China has meant for surface combat yeah their aircraft carriers and their some of their Landing stuff is bigger but this is their largest combat surface ship this they have eight of right now they're building eight more and they're pretty potent designs overall I would say that they're probably Superior to our tand deroga class something because they're newer have better gear and we're retiring our ATT on D roog class so with the service fleets kind of discussed and talked about I'm going to move on to the carriers and this is the part of the video where if I have any Chinese individuals viewing me you probably like the coverage at least I hope that I've talked about for the rest of the Chinese Navy however this is where things start to go problematic China has three aircraft carriers the type 1 type two and type three type 1 and two are basically converts from the Soviet designs being the Admiral kets off class 8:02 and for anyone who knows that name oh this was a class full of problems and the Chinese Navy is not a decent job at retrofitting these ships to make them be able to launch and land aircraft and they've done a decent job at that but it really hasn't gone according to plan because surprise surprise carrier aviation's very hard China's newest carrier the type 003 better known as the ability the fuang class I apologize once again for all the pronunciation errors I'm doing here but this is their first real full-time flat top the other two are way underweight this one I believe is between 80 to 100,000 tons there's been a lot of variation on that and the Chinese been very kind of tight LIF about this ship but China's actually listed all three of these ships as training carriers not as full-time flat tops but as training carriers and it's because the Chinese want to build the carrier Fleet to rival the United States but they currently lack the KN how to to do it and carrier Aviation is the 9:01 hardest thing to do in Naval Warfare so China's actually taking a pretty good approach to it kind of going step by step what this means right now is in terms of carrier Aviation China is nowhere near the United States even if they build two or three more fuang they're not really going to be able to combat the United States at se but Submarines 9:20 there's another problem for the Chinese Navy when it comes to that side of things they don't have enough naval aircraft they only have a handful of I believe it's like 50 or 60 carrier jet fighters not a whole lot in that regard I believe they have another 50ish multi roll to go off of that but still compared to the United States Navy which is over a thousand just on our carriers alone not even counting in reserve that's a very very high difference so carrier Aviation definitely not China strong suit won't be for at least another 10 to 20 years based on current estimates the next force that we're going to talk about within the Chinese Navy is their submarines so China has 61 submarines nuclear and conventional so 10:00 unlike the United States they have both um this comes with some upsid this comes with some downsizes but they are also one of the few Nations to own ballistic missile submarines they have seven of them in service right now of varying types as well as a new class coming out that is going to replace them so these are all nuclear with the exception of one so China is very specific about these ships and they are blue water cable they're not like the majority of the Chinese Navy that stat sustain the coastline they can and go far beyond it now in terms of nuclear attack submarines China has a couple of different variants specifically the sue the Shang and the Hong class so the Sue class is their newest one it's currently in development and set to replace both the Sha and Hong class and that currently they have nine of two more are under construction of the Shan class but overall the fleet of nuclear shines is smaller compared to their conventional sub forces so China operates four different classes of conventional kind of diesel Electric and that is going to 11:00 be the Yuan the song The kilo and the Ming class and all these ships is kind of the backbone of the Chinese subin force and this is where China gets a lot of the Flack for having a very noisy submarine Force the last thing I want to talk about is the Chinese amphibious Invasion forces and this is going to be things like their Landing dock ships and their amphibious assault ships and these ships are going to be kind of the ships that would take front and center if the island that shall not be named ever came under attack and China ships are actually really modern in this regard they have comparison to the American America class and the San Antonio class being the yushun and the yuz class respectively and they have a decent amount of these ships in service they perform relatively well in SE triones the problem is there's simply not enough of them to perform a successful amphibious Invasion at least the way that it's laid out in the Chinese Doctrine and the landing ships that are around them have not been updated just yet they're still a little bit behind so in reality their Invasion forces are not 12:02 in the best shape for transportation so that's kind of my 10 cents on that force and on the Chinese Navy in general now I do want to address one additional thing with the Chinese Navy and that kind of brings up the idea of the m in China aspect and I see a lot of people bring this up with decent kind of evidence behind it just I think was three weeks ago at this point one of China's brand new submarines sunk at dock brand new literally still not even off the production line sunk at Doc and total the entire sh I believe they're going to raise it and repair it but that's not a good sign if one of particularly the most advanced ship that China has being a submarine is lost during production it could have been a simple technical malfunction it could have been X Y and Z China has not come out and said what caused is sinking as of yet as of this recording so we're kind of left to speculate additional some of China ships 13:00 are very old at this point around half their Navy still needs to be properly updated so they're working with systems that aren't yet fully integrated additionally a lot of their other systems are Stepping Stones so you have the quality problem you have the stepping stone problem and in general you have your lack of modernization pro problem China is working to address all three of these and probably by 240 China is going to have one of the most effective navies in the Pacific if not the most effective Navy simply because the US Navy doesn't have the numbers to compete with them in the local area so China's Navy is very very strong but is limited by range by Logistics and most importantly by time so we'll see what happens with China's Navy in the near future but for right now it seems like it's going to be at the very least a bit of a restrained Force until it can modernize all its ships so I do want to include one more kind of little Point here and that is I am not going over all the individual ship class within the Chinese Merchant Navy within the Chinese 14:02 Maritime militia within the Chinese Coast Guard those would all be separate videos this is the Chinese Navy I want to stick on this Navy because don't have enough time to do that and this video was already pretty long so I don't want to go over so that's all I have to say on the Chinese Navy if you guys want to see more content like this I do a poll that kind of says what the next topic for the state of series will be and our next state of series is going to be I think in two three more weeks so it's going to be a little bit before you see another one of these up however next week's video is actually wild card and what that means is you guys have to choose the topic entirely it's not going to be a technology it's not going to be a specific topic it is going to be anything so if you have any suggestions please put them in that poll I'm going to put kind of three General ideas and then whatever one wins we'll go with and the last idea is going to be basically whatever you want to come with I am all for different ideas and if you guys look in the comments say that's really cool and vote for it we'll do it but next Friday is going to be wild card this 15:00 coming Monday we're going to have our Tech talk and PLL right now for that is very very neck and neck I believe it's currently between cavitation Torpedoes and Military Green Tech so we'll see which one wins out but it's going to be interesting to talk about either way so this was a little bit of a longer video there was a little bit more detail I wanted to go in here so if you got all the way here I appreciate it regardless enjoy the rest of your weekend I will see you on Monday [Music]
