How strong is the China Coast Guard?

In the past 2017, we often saw this kind of news in the media: several Chinese coast guard ships appeared near a certain island and reef, while a certain country sent ships to track and monitor, and when appropriate, shouted in protest. But China's coast guard ships don't follow this pattern at all. They still go their own way, coming when they should and leaving when they should. They can complete their patrol tasks excellently every time... Do you see any clues in this?

In other words, China's coast guard ships are now able to pass unimpeded in certain sea areas, and will no longer be intercepted or sprayed with water as they were before. There was a fierce confrontation with cannons and water cannons. Why is this? Could it be that the Coast Guard of a certain country suddenly became gentle? Of course this is not the case. In fact, all this is because China’s coast guard equipment has become more powerful and has even become the world’s number one maritime law enforcement force!

Many people will mention the United States at this time. Its coast guard is the strongest in the world. I think back then, a retired coast guard ship from the United States was given to the Philippines. It has become the country's most powerful flagship, which shows how awesome its coast guard equipment is! Yes, it is undeniable that the U.S. Coast Guard was once the world's strongest "maritime law enforcement force." But in fact, since 2016, China's coast guard equipment has surpassed the size of the US Coast Guard in terms of total tonnage, quality and quantity, becoming the new world's strongest!

It is precisely because of this that the coast guard agencies of some countries dare not approach Chinese coast guard ships. If a conflict occurs, they will definitely suffer. In the past, Japan once owned the world's largest coast guard ship, which was said to have a tonnage of an astonishing 7,000 tons and also had a fairly strong firepower configuration. That's why people used to be tyrannical at sea and "get wild" in front of us at every turn!

However, since the 12,000-ton "sea monster" of the China Coast Guard was put into service in 2015, we can no longer see the arrogant "ship shadow" of some countries. This "sea monster" of the China Coast Guard is not only the largest in the world, but also has the best firepower configuration in the world. China's 29.01 million-ton coast guard ship is equipped with a 76mm rapid-fire gun, two 30mm secondary guns and two anti-aircraft machine guns. This is almost the standard weapon for ordinary warships.

Not only that, China’s Type 818 coast guard ship is said to be just like a military frigate. It has a displacement of nearly 4,000 tons, a speed of up to 30 knots, and can carry an armed helicopter; it is also equipped with a 76mm naval gun, a 30mm rapid-fire gun and an anti-aircraft machine gun; in addition, the more modest weapons are 4 large-caliber high-pressure water cannons . Generally speaking, China's coast guard ships are built according to the standards of warships, and their anti-collision design is also world-class.

Therefore, China's coast guard force has quietly become the number one in the world. Moreover, after the 29.01 million-ton monster entered service with the China Coast Guard, the second 3901 was put into service in 2016. This makes some countries anxious in their eyes. If this continues, sooner or later, China's coast guard ships will catch up with other countries' warships. Not to mention having a head-on conflict with them, they will have to be careful of them misfiring even from a distance. In the end, I suffered a loss and it could only be regarded as a friction in law enforcement at sea. If I lost my tooth, I could only swallow it in my own belly.
