Zitat:Basically it introduces the "so-called" CV-16 carrier battle group. You can watch it as a leisure during breaktime.interessant, wieviel mediale Aufmerksamkeit China dem Träger widmet
It's in Chinese but I will translate after I watched.
After-notes:
The military analysis is Maj Gen (Ret). Xu Guangyu. He comments that;
1) this escort group is an initial test of communications and coordination between ships;
2) training and experimential now have to shift from East China Sea to South China Sea due to the tide conditions and demands of all the weapon systems onboard CV-16;
3) the lack of auxillary ships and submarines shows that this is not a formal CBG although it can be shuffled around on the types of ships for the type of mission;
4) a further extensive training and coordination exerises will be conducted judging from the period of the training;
5) this "so-called" carrier grp is not a show of force;
6) China still have a long way to have an actual carrier battle group;
7) China would have to customise its own carrier task force or carrier battle group in accordance to her strategic needs and tactical missions.
