"Cyberattacks" and electronic warfare means: The British press announced a "Chinese threat" to the aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth in the Pacific Ocean

68

The British aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth has embarked on its first "long-term mission", according to the press service of the United Kingdom Navy. After leaving the base in Portsmouth, he will go to the Mediterranean Sea, from there proceed to the Indian Ocean, and then will carry out tasks in the Pacific Ocean - approximately by May-June of this year. At the same time, it is noted that in the Pacific Ocean, "Queen Elizabeth" will pass through the Taiwan Strait. It was this information that caused significant concern among British military experts.

The British press began to publish materials, which said that the aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth "may face opposition from China."



For example, The Sunday Times published an article by Larisa Brown, a military columnist for the publication. Even if a British Navy aircraft carrier does not pass through the Taiwan Strait, Brown said "it could face Chinese attacks."

From the material about the "Chinese threat" to the British aircraft carrier:

The British Navy aircraft carrier expects hostile reception from China in the Pacific Ocean. The attack aircraft carrier group, led by HMS Queen Elizabeth, is awaiting cyberattacks from the Chinese military, which will try to drown out the signals of the ships, interfere with radar systems and airborne electronic equipment.

The article indicates that HMS Queen Elizabeth will have to face the use of Chinese electronic warfare systems.

But if everything is so difficult for an aircraft carrier, why is it being led in the direction of the PRC's maritime borders?

Larissa Brown says that in connection with the new phase of aggravation of relations between Beijing and Taipei, "the aircraft carrier of the British Navy may be on the front line."

For your information:

HMS Queen Elizabeth is the lead ship of the project of the same name. Commissioned in 2017. Full displacement - about 70 thousand tons. The cruising range is 10 thousand nautical miles, so during his "mission" he will definitely go to ports to replenish supplies. The aircraft carrier's crew is about 1,6 thousand people.

And his air defense exercises, in Solo sailing on the Northern Fleet, will be included in the Legend. Elizabeth does not have an air wing, and her shortcomings are noticed only on VO and in our media. From the series in their own eye the log is not noticed. We do not have a single ship of the first rank that can master such a campaign.

                  What's the use of looking if the T-64's armor is weaker than that of the T-72 and still doesn't take it? The most modern shells for l7 are 500 millimeters along the normal, for the t-72 without dz 500-550, and dz, and even a relic, and even more. Moreover, 500mm penetrates almost point-blank.

    In an interview with The Times, Chinese Ambassador to Great Britain, Liu Xiaoming, warned of the negative consequences in the event of the redeployment of the British new aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth to the Pacific Ocean.
    "Liu Xiaoming said that the proposed dispatch (of the ship - IF) is a sign of deteriorating relations between China and Britain after Brexit, when the United Kingdom becomes a junior partner of the United States," the newspaper writes.
    "After Brexit, I think the United Kingdom wants to play an important role in the world. This is not the way to play an important role," the ambassador said.
    He said he would be alarmed if Britain "joined forces with the United States against the Chinese."
    The ambassador also commented on London's decision to deny the Chinese company Huawei the right to participate in the creation of British 2027G networks until 5, stressing that this will lead to billions of losses for Britain due to China's refusal to invest. He recalled that while he is serving as ambassador, Chinese investments in this country have grown from $ 1 billion to $ 20 billion.
    "Now everything has changed. I don't think Huawei is still interested (do business here - IF). She planned to invest $ 3 billion in research over the next three years. And now the situation has changed," explained Liu Xiaoming.
    In addition, he warned of possible retaliation from Beijing if London hosts opposition activists from Hong Kong. However, the ambassador did not specify what action China would take.
    Liu Xiaoming also accused a number of officials of the Conservative Party of Britain, China Research Group and Premier Boris Johnson, who could not cope with pressure from Washington and party members, of creating a new atmosphere in British-Chinese relations.
    "National leaders must represent what is most in the interests of their country. They must not succumb to political pressure. The relations between China and the United Kingdom are too important to be usurped by these anti-Chinese forces," the ambassador summed up.
    The aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth is set to sail the Pacific in 2021. However, earlier British media reported that the British military plans to deploy Queen Elizabeth in the region as part of the formation of an international alliance to counter China.

    He is sickly among the Saxobrits. You will not be in a hurry - I think there will be serious breakdowns along the way.
    The striped ones were persuaded to "help bend China." I would not be surprised if ships from other countries "listening to the Capitol" approach the Taiwan Strait. Although I am sure that, apart from the striped and impudent ones, no one is interested even in trying to "include the owner" with China - everyone is satisfied with trade and economic relations with China (Europe / other NATO member countries).
    I believe that in the next 5 years, China will begin to establish itself not only as an economic leader, but also shake its arms.
    They well armed the PLA, now it is time to acquire the experience of modern warfare. While they can only fight in numbers. And I cannot believe that China will tolerate the claims of amers in silence for a long time. Any sanctions against any state are humiliation (remember how they put them in a corner at school - it was unpleasant). And China has historically been bent pretty well. Great Britain, Japan, and even the Tatar-Mongols were noted. The question is - they are accustomed to this historically and they already need it (funny), or they think that now "their kung fu is better than other kung fu."
    I am also looking forward to the creation of a military-political union of Asia (otherwise the Indians will be finished off with sticks and stones) - India, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan. China has some questions with Australia. Of course, the "standards of democracy" will catch up, or, most likely, they will. I wonder how Vietnam will behave - there are territorial disputes with China, but I do not believe that they will participate against China.
    In general, if a turmoil (military operations) against China starts there, it will be dangerous, but very curious to see the composition of the participants. And the DPRK? The Chinese did not little help the Koreans against the Koreans. And Pakistan?

    If China develops in the same way as in recent years, then many will be conquered financially. My relatives live on the Amur - I'm afraid that we will slowly sell the Amur land. This is how our "younger brother" grew up.
