Utusan Malaysia - 13 November 2007
APABILA Tentera Laut Amerika Syarikat (AS) menugaskan armada perangnya untuk latihan, aspek keselamatan kapal-kapal pengangkut pesawat diberikan kawalan keselamatan yang tinggi.
Sekurang-kurangnya 12 buah kapal perang menyediakan kawalan fizikal tatkala kepintaran teknikal kuasa besar tentera di dunia ini menyediakan perisai ghaib bagi mengesan dan menghalang sebarang pencerobohan. Itulah teorinya .
Namun kini, para panglima tentera AS telah tergamam dengan kemunculan sebuah kapal selam China di tengah lautan Pasifik tanpa dapat dikesan semasa menjalani latihan, iaitu muncul berhampiran dengan USS Kitty Hawk, sebuah kapal pengangkut super sepanjang 300 meter dengan 4,500 anggota di atasnya.
Semasa ia muncul di permukaan air, kapal selam penyerang Song Class sepanjang 50 meter berkuasa diesel ini telah belayar dalam jarak yang berupaya melancarkan serangan torpedo atau peluru berpandu ke atas kapal pengangkut itu.
Menurut seorang pegawai Pertubuhan Perjanjian Atlantik Utara (NATO), insiden itu menyebabkan Tentera Laut AS kebingungan. AS tidak menjangka armada kapal selam China itu mampu sampai ke satu tahap canggih selain berupaya memberi ancaman.
Seorang tokoh NATO menyatakan, kesannya sama seperti 搆ejutan besar apabila Rusia melancarkan Sputnik |

Lor... lama dah incident ni berlaku..... dah setahun .........
Song S20 Class
A submerged Song-class attack submarine shadowed Japan-based CV-63 Kitty Hawk in the East China Sea near Okinawa without being detected on 26 October 2006. The boat surfaced within five miles of the carrier, and only then was it spotted, by one of the carrier's planes on a routine surveillance flight. The submarine is normally equipped with wake-homing torpedos and anti-ship cruise missiles. Disclosure of the submarine encounter came while Adm. Gary Roughead, Coammander of the US Pacific Fleet, was in China holding talks with Chinese navy leaders. The encounter was something of an embarrassment to Adm. William J. Fallon, Commander of US forces in the Pacific, who has engaged in an ambitious military exchange program with China.
The SONG is China's first new-design, conventionally powered submarine. The SONG is a blend of Chinese and Western technology and has several key features that point to a major shift in diesel submarine design philosophy. It is the first Chinese submarine to have a skewed proPE***R. The SONG also is the first Chinese submarine designed to carry the developmental YJ-82, China's first encapsulated ASCM capable of launching from a submerged submarine. SONGs are probably fitted with flank-array sonars of French design. Chinese diesel submarines are fitted with German MTU diesel engines.
The Type 039 Wuhan C- class submarines, also referred to as the S20 Song-class, is China抯 most modern indigenously built diesel attack submarine. The Song-class, produced at the Wuhan shipyard, is 75 meters long, and 8.4 meters wide, giving a length-breadth ratio of 8.9, about the same as that of the 035-type. The submarine is equipped with a seven-blade large slanted proPE***R and shock-absorbance for the main engine. As seen from the color of the submarine's hull, it is already using damping tiles similar to those used on the "K"-class submarines. The body of the submarine is water-drop shaped and it has a wrap-casing rudder, although it still retains the stepped conning tower similar to the old Ming/Romeo class.
It is believed that the first Chinese naval platform capable of submerged launching of cruise missiles will be the Song-class submarine. It is designed to launch the Yingji-8 anti-ship guided missiles from underwater. However, test firings of the YJ-82 sub-launched anti-ship missile were unsuccessful during sea trials during the late 1990s.
Overall, their shape is like that of Western submarines and their technology is equivalent to the international level of the early 1980s. It also reportedly incorporates technologies acquired from Russia, as well as from Western countries. China is believed to have good access to a wide variety of foreign sonars, to include passive ranging sonars, flank array sonars, variable-depth sonars, as well as helicopters equipped with dipping sonars. Incorporating a German propulsion system and advanced hydrodynamic design, the Song-class is said to be as quiet as the American Los Angles nuclear submarines. But its overall performance is constrained by the use of 1980s technology, and the fact that the PLAN purchased the Russian Kilo-class submarines suggests that there are problems with the Song-class.
Intended to replace the aging Ming-class submarines, the first Song-class submarine was launched on 25 May 1994 and started sea trials in August 1995. but did not become operational until 1998.
They are a great advance on the Type 035, but are said to be a less than satisfactory design. Problems reportedly include excessive noise radiation and systems integration difficulties. The integration of Chinese, Russian and imported systems such as the French TSM 2225 sonar and German diesel engine is blamed for serious system design and operational problems on the lead boat.
Type 039G
The improved variant deleted the stepped conning tower of the first unit, resulting in an appearance like that of the French Agosta-90B. A coating of anechoic tiles is believed to have been added to reduce the acoustic signature while submerged. There is unconfirmed speculaiton that future units might be fitted with an AIP system which may have been tested onboard a Ming class SS.
According to some reports, two units were in afloat as of 1997, and two or three additional units under construction, though subsequent reports confirmed that only one unit was actually active by 1999. Two more boats (321 and 322) were laid down at Wuhan Shipyard within a year after the launch of the first boat. The second unit was extensively modified due to serious problems encountered onboard the first boat. This second unit was launched in late 1999, a year later than originally anticipated, and was formally commissioned in 2001.
As of late 2003 at least three Songs are in service with at least two additional units under construction. The 2nd 039G (322) was believed to be undergoing sea trial in late 2002. Since then at least three new hulls were launched at Wuhan Shipyard and one more was being built at Jiangnan Shipyard,
Additional construction of the improved variant was reportedly planned at two per year from 1998 with as many as nine additional improved units contemplated. This program was apparently slowed in favor of Russian-built submarines and continued production of the Ming-class. Other sources suggested that the class would be cancelled in favor of further purchases of Russian boats, given the unsatisfactory performance of the first unit of the class.
As of late 2004 there were probably at least five Songs completed, with eight or more under construction. The year 2004 was a landmark for the Song, with two vessels launching at the Wuchang shipyard, and, for the first time, two more launched at Shanghai's Jiangnan shipyard. By early 2005 there were at least 10 Songs either in commission, on sea trials, or in the final stages of being fitted out, with seven of these submarines reportedly built since 2003. From pubished photos it can be confirmed that the following numbers have been painted on PLAN Songs: 320, 314, 315, 316, 321, 322, 323, and 324. Janes Fighting Ships says there is a 325, though as of mid-2005 there were no published photos.

Apasal ni macam cerita recycle aje....ataupun USN masih tak belajar kesilapan tempohari....
Anyway..diesel subs on batteries can be quieter than nukes. |

The uninvited guest: Chinese sub pops up in middle of U.S. Navy exercise, leaving military chiefs red-facedBy MATTHEW HICKLEY - More by this author 籟/url]Last updated at 00:13am on 10th November 2007[url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_article_id=492804&in_page_id=1811#StartComments] Comments (6)
When the U.S. Navy deploys a battle fleet on exercises, it takes the security of its aircraft carriers very seriously indeed.
At least a dozen warships provide a physical guard while thetechnical wizardry of the world's only military superpower offers aninvisible shield to detect and deter any intruders.
That is the theory. Or, rather, was the theory.

Uninvited guest: A Chinese Song Class submarine, like the one that sufaced by the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk
American military chiefs have been left dumbstruck by anundetected Chinese submarine popping up at the heart of a recentPacific exercise and close to the vast U.S.S. Kitty Hawk - a 1,000ftsupercarrier with 4,500 personnel on board.
By the time it surfaced the 160ft Song Class diesel-electricattack submarine is understood to have sailed within viable range forlaunching torpedoes or missiles at the carrier.
According to senior Nato officials the incident caused consternation in the U.S. Navy.
The Americans had no idea China's fast-growing submarine fleethad reached such a level of sophistication, or that it posed such athreat.
One Nato figure said the effect was "as big a shock as theRussians launching Sputnik" - a reference to the Soviet Union's firstorbiting satellite in 1957 which marked the start of the space age.
The incident, which took place in the ocean between southern Japan and Taiwan, is a major embarrassment for the Pentagon.

Battle stations: The Kitty Hawk carries 4,500 personnel
The lone Chinese vessel slipped past at least a dozen otherAmerican warships which were supposed to protect the carrier fromhostile aircraft or submarines.
And the rest of the costly defensive screen, which usuallyincludes at least two U.S. submarines, was also apparently unable todetect it.
According to the Nato source, the encounter has forced a seriousre-think of American and Nato naval strategy as commanders reconsiderthe level of threat from potentially hostile Chinese submarines.
It also led to tense diplomatic exchanges, with shaken Americandiplomats demanding to know why the submarine was "shadowing" the U.S.fleet while Beijing pleaded ignorance and dismissed the affair ascoincidence.
Analysts believe Beijing was sending a message to America andthe West demonstrating its rapidly-growing military capability tothreaten foreign powers which try to interfere in its "backyard".
The People's Liberation Army Navy's submarine fleet includes at least two nuclear-missile launching vessels.
Its 13 Song Class submarines are extremely quiet and difficult to detect when running on electric motors.
Commodore Stephen Saunders, editor of Jane's Fighting Ships, anda former Royal Navy anti-submarine specialist, said the U.S. had paidrelatively little attention to this form of warfare since the end ofthe Cold War.
He said: "It was certainly a wake-up call for the Americans.
"It would tie in with what we see the Chinese trying to do,which appears to be to deter the Americans from interfering oroperating in their backyard, particularly in relation to Taiwan."
In January China carried a successful missile test, shooting down a satellite in orbit for the first time. |
