Well I was so stupid I missed that its right on the Norinco website, the Type 64 7.62x17mm, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of info on just the round though, such as exact dimensions or properties, at least I know its rimless now though.

Chinese robotic and remote piloted submersibles

Does anyone have any information regarding recent developments, or any developments with Chinese robotic and remote piloted submersibles.

I am interested in the civilian market for these vehicles and what companies in China (PRC) build them.

Any assistance is appreciated.

Chinese Patriotic Military Slogan?

Japan I think has "NIPPON! BANZAI!" or "LONG LIVE JAPAN!"

What's China's equivalent?

Remember to use the FAQ thread if you have a question.

Well, "Nippon Banzai" is a sentence structure that comes from the Chinese loan words imported into Japanese - the phrase literally means "Japan Ten Thousand Years" 日本万歳, which is familiar to most Chinese speakers as Wansui 萬歲.

So it's quite possible that you could say "Zhongguo Wansui" 中國萬歲 which means the same thing, though I'm not sure what is actually used. I've heard "Zhongguo Jiayo" 中國加油 which I would translate as "Go Go China!".

Yea don't open a thread to ask a question..Anyway I have a question..

Will some fine member please direct me to a good FREE Chinese to English translator?

Seem the translators I've used are very poor. Oh they translate ..but something is lost. Like understandable English. Thanks!

Here's an example..
香港《东方日报》刊文:近日,太平洋美军司令基廷提醒中国,造航母操作及运用不易,“既昂贵,又困难,会超过中方现在的想像。”其实,不妨把基廷放言与希拉里访华两件事连在一起看,就有一种洞若观火的效果。希拉里力促中国继续大手笔购买美国国债,拯救美国经济;而基廷则极力阻止中国花钱自己制造航母,因为造航母“太昂贵”,不便宜。很明显,希拉里与基廷一唱一和,一起打中国外汇储备的主意。一个指导北京应该把钱花在哪,一个阻吓北京不应该把钱花在哪。言下之意,北京与其花昂贵的钱造航母,还不如多买美国国债,与美国“同舟共济”。

根据香港《东方日报》有一篇评论文章特别提到,买美国国债不如造航空母舰。这篇文章特别提到了最近美国国务卿希拉里访问中国,而且美国政府不断给中国政府施加压力,希望中国多多购买美国的国债,目前我们知道美国希望中国多买国债。

一方面,美国出于经济的这个危机,同时中国是有两万亿美元的外汇储备,那么中国买七千亿美元的美国国债,对中国来说还是可以承担的。但是这篇文章特别提到,中国除了买美国国债跟美国互相更紧密关系和牵制美国以外。中国也应该思考,拿出买美国国债的1%,也就是大概60亿美元,就可以打造一个中国自己先进的航空母舰的编队,还可以进行相关的维修和补给等工作。

那么这篇文章特别提到,中国解放军确实正在造自己的航空母舰,60亿美元左右就可以维持一个先进航空母舰整个舰队的相关的功能。那么有了航空母舰之后,中国一方面可以保卫自己领海的相关的安全,最近不断的有海区上受到侵占的新闻出现。

另一方面,中国也需要保护自己油路的安全,所以航空母舰对中国非常重要。那么他也提到解放军确实正在研发制造两艘的航母,未来可能要正式的服役,一方面解放军在研究怎么样使用航空母舰舰队。另一方面这篇文章也提到,解放军也正在研究如何打美军的航母,因为这是茅和盾的问题,也要来反制美军的航空母舰对中国的压力。

提到中国目前最有效的可能还是反介入的这个战术,所谓的反介入就是不让航空母舰逼近,或者是介入中国台海地区等等相关的战事。一方面提到中国最有效的还是用常规潜艇,发射攻击性的鱼雷对美军的航母是最有利的一个攻击。

因为美军航母目标大,而且很容易被中国的潜艇用狼群的战术来进行突袭。同时特别提到,中国也提升了攻击的方法,因为按以往的规律,美军的航母只要不接近中国大陆的海岸的基线1000公里以外,中国大陆是很难侦测的。

但这几年中国大陆在研究打美军航母方面,做了一些新的突破,包括在太空的侦查方面。中国大陆不断发射各种的侦查卫星上空,同时展开了对美军锁定的一种追踪。另外中国也发展了预警机,还有无人的长程的侦察机等等,对在公海活动的目标美军的舰只都可以发现。另外中国在陆基也部署了远程的超视距的雷达,公海的目标也可以尽收眼底。

但是美军的这个报告也特别提到,中国大陆目前还是缺乏太空侦查的卫星,像是南海地区,如果中国要全天候24小时侦查,起码需要46颗的卫星,但是中国现在显然在卫星数量和卫星侦查的质量方面,还是有所欠缺。所以提到中国解放军一方面发展航母,同时也在研究如何打美军的航母。

And this ^^ turned into this..;

Hong Kong "Oriental Daily News," published in the text: Recently, the U.S. Pacific commander of the Chinese基廷提wake up, building an aircraft carrier to operate and easy to use, "not only expensive but also difficult, more than China now imagine." In fact, may wish to put boasted with Sheila Keating Lane's visit to China two things together look, there is a hole if the concept of fire effects. Hillary Clinton urged the United States that China will continue to buy large bonds, saving the U.S. economy; and Keating are strongly deter Chinese manufacturers to spend its own aircraft carrier, carrier-made because "too expensive", not cheap at all. Obviously, Hillary and Keating一唱一和, playing with the idea of China's foreign exchange reserves. Beijing should be a guide to spend the money on which, a deterrent to Beijing should not put money there. This implies that Beijing and its flower making money expensive aircraft carriers, the United States is not such as to buy more bonds, and the United States "the same boat." According to Hong Kong "Oriental Daily" has a commentary article in particular mentioned that the United States treasury bonds to buy than build an aircraft carrier. This article specifically mentioned the recent visit to China, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary, but give the United States Government has repeatedly put pressure on the Chinese government hoped that more Chinese buy American treasury bonds, we now know that the United States hopes that China will buy more bonds. On the one hand, the United States out of economic crisis, has meanwhile China is 2000 billion U.S. dollars of foreign exchange reserves, China's 700 billion U.S. dollars to buy American treasury bonds, for China or could afford. However, the article specifically mentioned, apart from Chinese to buy American treasury bonds with each other more closely the relationship between the United States and pinned down outside of the United States. China should also consider and take to buy 1 percent of the United States government bonds, which is approximately six billion U.S. dollars, you can create a China's own advanced fleet of aircraft carriers can also be used for related work such as repair and replenishment. Well, this article specifically mentioned, the Chinese People's Liberation Army are indeed making their own aircraft carriers, about six billion U.S. dollars will be able to maintain an entire fleet of advanced aircraft carrier-related functions. Then have an aircraft carrier, China can defend its own territorial security related, there has been the area has been occupied on the news emerged. On the other hand, China is also the need to protect the safety of their own circuit, so an aircraft carrier to China is very important. He also mentioned that it is indeed the PLA 2 R & D and manufacturing of the aircraft carrier, the future may be a formal service, on the one hand, the People's Liberation Army in the study how to use the aircraft carrier fleet. On the other hand, the article also mentioned that the PLA is also studying how to hit the U.S. aircraft carrier, because this is the problem of fescue and shield, but also to counter U.S. aircraft carrier to China's pressure. Mentioned that China is currently the most effective anti-intervention may be the tactics, the so-called anti-intervention approach is not an aircraft carrier, or Chinese intervention in the Taiwan Strait area are related to the war and so on. On the one hand, mentioned that China is still the most effective conventional submarines, torpedo launch offensive against U.S. aircraft carriers are the most favorable one attack. Since target U.S. aircraft carriers, and can easily be used wolves Chinese submarines to conduct a surprise attack tactics. At the same time specifically mentioned, China has also improved the method of attack, because in accordance with the laws of the past, the U.S. aircraft carrier is not nearly as long as the Chinese mainland coast 1000 kilometers away from the baseline, China

Say What???:confused: the English above needs a translation to ENGLISH!!

The introductory basically says that US is discouraging China from building aircraft carrier by saying it is expensive, difficult to operate, etc. At the same time, Hillary wants China to buy more US' debt. The newspaper in question took these two observation and suggest that the US is eyeing China's money.

The paragraph that follows should be considered as the first paragrpah. Bascially, it says the exact samething as the introductory parapgraph, but it is now saying "an article said that..." rather than doing an introductory "there is an article which said..."

The second paragraph continues on telling us what the article has written, the latter of which suggested that China should think about using the money to buy a carrier instead of US debts, because it would only cost 1% of the debt that is currently held.

The third and forth parapgraph says that the article said that with a carrier, China can protect its sealanes, especially the routes of oil tanker. The newspaper continues on saying that a carrier is very important, and that PLA is investigating the operation aspect of operating and sinking a carrier.

Fifth paragraphs say that the article said that the most effective method to defend against carrier (from coming close to China) is to use submarines for area denial.

Sixth parapgraph says that the article said that aircraft carrier is a huge target, and that China continues on upgrading its potential of tracking an aircraft carrier that is more than 1000km away from Chinese coast line.

Seventh paragraph mentions that the article said that breakthroughs were made by China in methods of tracking an carrier, from space assets to air assets to OTH radars.

Last paragraph mentions that the article concluded that there's still a long way to go for China to be able to observe the seas 24 hours a day. The article used here seems to be different from the one mentioned in the introductory paragraph, so I'm confused.:confused: I don't think this article of your's is reliable.

Anyway, nothing can translate better than a human can.
