New Delhi: Once again the two superpowers of the world (America and China) are slowly coming face to face in the Indo-Pacific region. According to the latest developments, America has deployed its nuclear submarine USS at its military base located in Guam island in the Pacific Ocean. China is angry with Minnesota anchors. It is being told that America is upgrading its military base on the island of Guam to prepare for the future. Special: As China has deployed 370 warships in its submarine fleet, countries in the region including the US have become worried.
The US anchored there on the USS. ‘Minnesota’ is the flagship of the Virginia series of fast submarines. Its displacement (weight) is 7,800 tonnes. Length is 377 feet. It has 12 land cruise missiles and 25 torpedoes. This is the first time such a nuclear submarine has been deployed to Guam. May is the 10th submarine of the Virginia series.
A Newsweek report said that after months of waiting, the U.S.S. ‘Minnesota’ (SSN783) has reached its ‘home-port’ Guam. The submarines of this series were ‘commissioned’ around 2000. Its presence in Guam will strengthen America’s naval position in the Western Pacific region. It is also capable of ‘submarine warfare’. Also capable of conducting attack missions and intelligence gathering. There will be about 147 sailors in it.
When the submarine arrived in Guam, it was greeted by Captain Neil Stein Hagen, commander of Submarine Squadron 15, and nine other servicemen.
It is noteworthy that China has increased its navy significantly in the last few years, it has a total of 370 warships along with submarines. The Chinese Navy is currently the largest navy in the world.
America has made full preparations to fight this. It has also given ally Japan a destroyer armed with laser weapons and an aircraft carrier equipped with stealth aircraft.
Lipu Pengyu, spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in Washington, said that China is in panic. He said that on one hand America talks about peace, while on the other hand it is building its navy. This is a strange situation, unfair.
