China audacious claims of imposing a naval blockade with just ten submarines

[SrNair]

Even US Navy would face tough time if they try to block us let alone PLAN.We have 7500 km shoreline.

And India CBG Vikramaditya will have ASW protection and SSN protection.
Chinese need at least 50 nuke sub to block us .But then we will also have a large navy .We are also looking for 30 nuke subs within two decades.

First question is how they will get through malacca area without detection.Their nuke subs are very noisy.Han class is useless 50s tech,type 093 is still nosiiser than 70s victor 3.The latest type 095 is still noisier than akula 1.

Forget sinking our carrier with a submarine,the carrier battle group will be escorted by an akula -2.And against the akula-2 no submarine in IOR has any chance unless USN steps in.We are getting a second akula-2 for the vikrant carrier coming up.

First,This Chinese claim is for China's "Domestic Consumption"..reality has nothing to do with this..

Second,As reports suggest,its PLAN who is under "Near Blockade"..They can't make a move without Japanese-Australia-USN-South Korea and India hearing about it..

I'm posting a pic,which is quite old Undersea Defense Line...

just look at it.It is no wonder why one year back,their submarines got detected 22 times in IOR only.

To make a blockade,you need whole lot of things..Control on Airspace and it is needed to have support of Surface Fleet.ASW is a big threat for isolated submarines as it becomes an easy target.

and another thing...

India is not "Philippines"(Hell,I doubt they can make a blockade against Philippines with 10 subs)..Its having a vast coast.just one food for thought..Germany having massive amount of subs in Atlantic couldn't make a successful blockade against small nation like Britain..and here we're,talking about a blockade against a country which is thousands of km away,have a very powerful navy and potent ASW capabilities and situated right next to world's busiest sea lane.

and another thing..I wonder which submarine they'll want to use..Because most of their SSK's willn't have 2 weeks of "Station Time".and as fact suggests,to continuously deploy 1 submarine in station all the time,one needs 3 submarines(1 in station,1 which is going to relieve it and one is returning from station),which means to perform it,it'll need some 30 subs(if SSK).Now if we think that submarine availability rate of PLAN is around 40%(I doubt),then PLAN needs around 80 SSKs..Another problem will be,void of any "Support Base",how well this sub fleet will continue is very doubtful.

of course,one doesn't need to understand all these prospects when it comes about "Chinese Claim".when you see it,simply treat it as trash..

Interesting that it covers Sundra strait as well.

Which was one the ways of entering IOR region without India's notice

American naval intelligence will come very handy for us

 

[HariPrasad]

We have excellent reconnaissance capabilty with nest in class naval reconnaissance planes of the world. We should not have any problem in identifying the chines sub and drop a depth charge with love.

It's one thing for you to compare IN with Chinese navy. It's another to say that U.S. Navy will have tough time with India navy. India navy can only operate in Indian Ocean with our permission.

Chinese troll big mouth bragging ..... Nobody requires your permission .

Ya right .
They couldnt do anything in 1971 when we were nothing.We invited Soviets and decently did our job.

So they cant anything now .USN will stay in South Indian Ocean.We will dominate other area.Dont quote me again to show the IQ level of that ugly thing in your avatar

 

[[Bregs]]

China and India have never exchanged a single bullet on border since past 40 years or so, blocking of Indian seas is highly far fetched idea and neither its pragmatically feasible for them to do so as Indian Navy is right on the job

India and China economic trade in next 3 years will reach such a gigantic stage that it will guide the both countries towards reconciliation

Isnt that technically Indonesian territorial waters? Also that strait looks very shallow for any submarine to pass through. And Chinese subs would definitely be detected by the Indonesian authorities before any body else!

True!

In both the straits due their deph no submarine can go submerged.

Also, welcome back gubbi, was a fan of your post back in the days when i was lurker here

Actually I won't be surprised if someone say that Indian navy have planted sea bed sensors and buoys to detect submarines across the Indian ocean or at least near the vital entry points to the ocean. Any intelligent navy would do that !

Indian territorial waters begin where the Strait of Malacca ends. All shipping that goes through this strait skirts the EEZ or territorial waters of India. There is a very large Indian naval presence on the Andaman and Nicobar islands, God's gift of an unsinkable natural aircraft carrier to India! Since the 10th century, India has been a major player controlling or influencing shipping through the straits. Rest assured, contrary to whatever the fanbois want to believe, anything that floats or swims in the IOR, Indian navy has its eyes and ears on it.

Chinese recently proved the capabilities of their new Subs . if the export model is that good what about the one they made for their defence.
