U.S., "Ohio" is to leave the nuclear submarine base in Yokosuka, Japan美国“俄亥俄”号核潜艇正在离开日本横须贺基地
A few days ago, the U.S. Navy submarine force in Australia openly declared that the United States Navy In addition to the tune of 60% of the submarine deal with China and Russia, and Australia will also join the Navy to build "the world's most lethal," the submarine force to deter China and Russia.
Full of colors such provocative remarks, the North American Chinese-language newspaper "World Journal" published an article pointing out that the U.S. military generals in the government is about to change when they make such a position on the long-term development of relations between the two countries adversely.
For the formation of the "most lethal" force under water
Nov. 8's "Australian" that the United States Navy Submarine Command commander Lieutenant General Jieyi Tang Donnelly, a few days ago at the Australian Institute of submarines at a meeting presided over a public that the U.S. submarine force in the Asia-Pacific region's largest Concern is China's military spending and the rise of weapons and equipment. China is aimed at strengthening the military conflict in the Taiwan Strait, have the ability to block third-party intervention. In order to deal with possible conflict in the Taiwan Strait, the U.S. Navy is to mobilize 60% of the nuclear submarine stationed in the Pacific Ocean to China and Russia to form an underwater deterrent force.
Lieutenant Donnelly said that China's defense budget by 2007 an increase of 17%, and this growth trend is still going on. "China is the construction of a large number of ships is causing us some concern, we would like to know what their intent is." He also claimed that China is developing a "blocking U.S. military satellites" and the United States to destroy long-range surface warships.
A few weeks ago, Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said Australia should step up building of the armed forces in response to an arms race in the Asia-Pacific region. However, he did a little bit out of China is a threat. In response, Major-General Donnelly said that the United States and Australia's submarine forces should join hands to form "the world's most deadly force" and Australia "Collins" class submarines will be the next military conflict to play an important role, because they No air support, can be dangerous voyage to the waters to carry out its mandate.
Military observers believe the Australia-New Zealand defense white paper released early next year, which is the important part of the construction of 12 new submarines in order to be able to after 2020 to replace the existing "Collins" class submarines. As the new submarine will be equipped with long-range cruise missiles and more advanced sonar sensors and air-independent propulsion system, so Australia has been favored by the submarine force. However, because of the high cost of manufacturing a new boat, the navy hopes that the Australian media for public support. In this case, the U.S. military generals, by playing up the mouth of Chinese naval threat, does not rule out the possibility that the intention to carry out public opinion offensive.
This position may not be combined appetite of the White House
For a long time, the United States and its allies in the Asia-Pacific advocacy of "Chinese naval threat", particularly "Chinese submarine threat" this way, as the strategic adjustment of the layout and ask for an excuse for military spending. November 10 "World Journal" commented that if the Australian media reports accurate, Donnelly's remarks are bound to cause some controversy.
First of all, Donnelly rank of lieutenant general just three weeks, if the above remarks as personal views, he has clearly exceeded the capacity of the said should not say. These remarks do not represent the position of the U.S. military. Where is transferred to the submarine, which contain one country, is the Navy's military orders and even Defense Minister duties. The task force commander of the submarine just completed combat readiness of the submarine, the smooth forces specific areas, the implementation of orders from their superiors.
Furthermore, if Donnelly is the representative of the U.S. Navy and the Department of Defense issued a statement, that is, to convey the U.S. government's official policy, the selected time is not appropriate. Obama has been elected as the next president, Bush is about to leave the future of national defense should be Obama's foreign policy decisions. If Donnelly on behalf of the U.S. military, openly claim that the mobilization of 60 submarines in the Pacific to deal with China, as if the two armed forces has been confrontation between the U.S. and China and return to the Cold War era. The White House's new owners may not be willing to do so for the Chinese position.
On the other hand, despite Donnelly's will be open to question the timing and wording, but it can not be denied that what he said was his heart, also on behalf of the U.S. part of the voice of high-ranking officers. At present, the Russian naval power and has been a huge difference from the Soviet era, that the Americans only have the ability to contend with the U.S. is China's navy, the submarine force the Chinese side is the object of their fear. The question is, why should Chinese military expansion year after year, with the intention to build a navy ocean it? "World Journal", wrote the article, the U.S. military to take into account mainland China's naval forces over Taiwan several times long ago, Beijing's long-term intention is clearly in the Taiwan Strait, that is, the United States has always been regarded as the inland sea in the western Pacific. As the only post-Cold War world maritime power of the United States, of course, to end tension.
On the other hand, the U.S. military was on the Chinese military's progress so "nervous" and also to a large extent because of the cold war ideology is indeed cause trouble. Pacific is not the United States own the pond, China to safeguard national interests and building of ocean-going navy, had not violated any laws or international conventions, there is no reason to interfere in Washington.
"World Journal", the article also concluded that politically conservative and Bush, Obama came to power, what would the U.S. military in the Pacific region, what strategic adjustment? I believe the United States and China are all waiting anxiously for the military.
Sitting on the world's most powerful submarine force, the U.S. Navy for antisubmarine warfare Research continues to spare no effort and has been looking for a suitable imaginary enemy. Published in the United States in April, "National Defense Magazine" (National Defense), contains the text, should be urged more research and development of new anti-submarine equipment, in order to cope with the sustained development of China's conventional submarines. According to the Japanese Foreign Ministry disclosed that the U.S. nuclear-powered submarine, "Providence" in at 10 o'clock on the 10th about to enter Japan's southern Okinawa Baidi naval base, and left before noon, prior notification in accordance with the practice in Japan. Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement: "The United States submarines to enter our ports, must be at least 24 hours to inform the Japanese government." Japan in a rare protest to the United States, the United States Embassy in Japan to respond quickly, saying the United States for the communication by the Navy submarine caused by adverse events apologize.
According to Canada, "Daily Mail" reported on August 31, GE Shipping Company on August 29 at the shipyard held a brief news conference, President Yuehankaixi presided over the ceremony to pay shipping. He said: "The submarine is all the construction workers and designers of technology and wisdom, their excellent work for the defense industry has made tremendous contributions."
日前，美国海军潜艇部队司令在澳大利亚公然宣称，美国海军除调60％的潜艇对付中国和俄罗斯外，还将与澳大利亚海军一起打造“世上最致命”的潜艇部队，以威慑中俄两国。
对于这种充满挑衅色彩的言论，北美华文报纸《世界日报》刊文指出，美军将领在政府即将更替时做出这样的表态，对两国关系的长远发展不利。
欲组建“最致命”水下力量
11月8日的《澳大利亚人报》透露，美国海军潜艇司令部司令杰伊·唐纳利中将，日前在澳大利亚潜艇研究所主持的一次会议上公开表示，美国潜艇部队在亚太地区最大的关注，是中国的军费和武器装备的崛起。中国强军的目的是在台海发生冲突时，有能力阻止第三方的介入。而为了应对可能发生的台海冲突，美国海军正在调集60％的核潜艇进驻太平洋，以对中国及俄罗斯的水下力量形成威慑。
唐纳利中将说，中国国防预算到2007年为止增加了17％，而这种增长趋势仍在进行之中。“中国正在兴建的大量舰艇引起我们的关注，我们想知道他们的意图是什么。”他还声称，中国正在开发“阻断美国军用卫星”和远距离摧毁美水面战舰的能力。
数周前，澳大利亚总理陆克文曾表示，澳应该加强武装部队的建设以应对亚太地区的军备竞赛。不过，他并没有点出中国是威胁。对此，唐纳利少将表示，美国和澳大利亚的潜艇部队应该携手组建“全世界最致命的力量”，而澳大利亚的“科林斯”级潜艇，将会在未来的军事冲突中发挥重要作用，因为它们无需空中支援，便能远航到危险水域执行任务。
军事观察家认为，澳新国防白皮书将于明年初出炉，其中重要内容是建造12艘新型潜艇，以便在2020年之后能取代现有的“科林斯”级潜艇。由于新潜艇将装备远程巡航导弹、更先进的声呐传感器和不依赖空气的推进系统，所以备受澳大利亚潜艇部队青睐。然而，由于新艇制造费用过高，澳海军希望通过媒体争取公众支持。在这种情况下，借美军将领之口渲染中国海军威胁，不排除有开展舆论攻势的意图。
如此表态未必合白宫胃口
长期以来，美国及其亚太盟友对鼓吹“中国海军威胁论”，特别是“中国潜艇威胁论”乐此不疲，将其作为调整战略布局和索要军费的借口。11月10日的《世界日报》发表评论称，如果澳媒体报道无误，唐纳利的谈话势必引起若干争议。
首先，唐纳利的官阶只是三星中将，上述谈话如果属于个人意见，他显然已经逾越了身份，说了不该说的话。这番言论并不能代表美国军方的立场。把潜艇调往哪里、遏制哪一个国家，是海军军令部长甚至国防部长的职责。潜艇部队司令的任务只是完成潜艇的战备，顺利移防特定地区，执行上级的命令。
再者，如果唐纳利真是代表美国海军与国防部发表谈话，亦即传达美国政府的官方政策，所选时机也不恰当。因为奥巴马已当选下任总统，布什即将离职，未来的国防外交政策应由奥巴马决定。唐纳利若代表美国军方，公然宣称调动六成潜艇到太平洋对付中国，仿佛两军已然对峙，美中之间又恢复到冷战年代。白宫的新主人未必乐意如此对中国表态。
另一方面，尽管唐纳利中将谈话的时机和措辞有待商榷，但不能否认，他说的是他心里的话，也代表一部分美军高级将领的心声。目前，俄罗斯海军实力与苏联时代已不可同日而语，美国人认为惟一有能力与美军抗衡的就是中国海军，中方的水下力量更是令他们担心的对象。问题在于，中国为什么要逐年扩军，并意图建立一支远洋海军呢？《世界日报》的文章写道，美军考虑到中国大陆的海军力量早就超过台湾数倍，北京的长远打算显然在于台海以外，也就是向来被美国视为内海的西太平洋。身为冷战后世界惟一海上强权的美国，当然要为此紧张。
反过来说，美军之所以对中国军力的进步如此“神经过敏”，很大程度上也确实是由于冷战思想作祟。太平洋不是美国自家的池塘，中国为维护国家利益而建设远洋海军，未曾违背任何法律或国际公约，华盛顿没有任何理由干涉。
《世界日报》的文章最后也总结说，与政治上保守的布什不同，奥巴马上台后，究竟会对美军在太平洋地区的战略部署作何调整？相信美国与中国军方都在拭目以待。
坐拥当今世界上最强大的水下力量，美国海军对反潜作战的研究仍然不遗余力，并一直寻找合适的假想敌。4月出版的美国《国防月刊》（Ｎａｔｉｏｎａｌ Ｄｅｆｅｎｃｅ），载文，力主应研发更多新式反潜装备，以便应付持续发展的中国常规潜艇。
据日本外务省透露，美军核动力潜艇“普罗维登斯”号于10日上午10时左右进入日本南部冲绳县白堤海军基地，并在中午前离开，事先没有按照惯例通知日本。外务省在声明中说：“美国潜艇进入我们的港口，必须至少在24小时前知会日本政府”。在日方罕见地向美方提出抗议之后，美国驻日使馆赶紧回应，称美方对此次由海军沟通不利引起的潜艇事件表示歉意。
据加拿大《每日邮报》8月31日报道，通用电气船舶公司8月29日在船厂举行了一个简短的新闻发布会，公司总裁约翰·凯西主持交船仪式。他说：“这艘潜艇是所有建造工人和设计者技术和智慧的结晶，他们的出色工作，为国防工业做出了巨大的贡献。”
