Analysis by the SITC Team: Civil Military Integration Coordinating Small Group
|
On May 3, China held the fifth annual meeting of the Civil-Military Integration in Weapons and Armament Research and Production System Inter-Ministerial Coordinating Small Group (CMISG). Started at the end of the Hu Jintao administration in 2012, this supra-ministerial body has met annually under the Xi Jinping administration and has taken on increased importance following Xi's elevation of civil-military integration to a national strategy in March 2015, a move intended to provide momentum to an effort that has made mixed progress over the past decade.

Kanwa Defense Review reports that China's J-15 fighter still has many technical issues preventing it from entering full production. To date, only sixteen J-15 fighters have entered production. Kanwa concludes that the only option for the CCP to overcome this obstacle is to request from Russia technical improvement plans for the Su-33, which the J-15 is based upon.

习近平：坚持人民防空为人民开创人民防空事业新局面
第七次全国人民防空会议
13
日在京举行。中共中央总书记、国家主席、中央军委主席习近平亲切会见与会代表。他强调，人民防空事关人民群众生命安危、事关改革开放和现代化建设成果。要坚持人民防空为人民，把这项工作摆到战略位置、纳入"十三五"规划，与其他工作同步抓好，团结一心开创人民防空事业新局面。
The Chinese Air Force has begun to use H-6 bombers to train flight crews, a move experts say indicates the People's Liberation Army is steadily strengthening its bomber force by putting newer versions into service and moving older ones to flight schools. Starting in early April, students at the PLA Air Force Harbin Flight Academy have been using the H-6 for bomber training. In the past, they used other planes to simulate bomber flights, according to the PLA Air Force. The change will substantially shorten the time required to train bomber crews and strongly boost the bomber force's development, the Air Force said.
The crash of a fighter jet in eastern China on Wednesday will almost certainly be followed by similar accidents as the People's Liberation Army ramps up training to improve combat readiness, military analysts said. Liang Yang, a spokesman for the PLA Navy, confirmed late on Wednesday that a fighter jet from the East Sea Fleet crashed into a sewing machine factory during a night training mission at about 7.30pm in Taizhou in Zhejiang province.
China's first medium-long range unmanned freight plane made its maiden flight in Xixian New Area in Shaanxi province on May 10, reported guancha.cn. The unmanned plane with fixed wings can fly 80 km with 15 kilo cargo and deliver goods in a range of locations.
The unmanned plane with fixed wings can fly 80 km with 15 kilo cargo and deliver goods in a range of locations. Compared to other unmanned drones, this plane has longer mileage per flight and can handle heavier cargo and is capable of taking off and landing in short distance.
China continues to stalk stealth for its military air operations, viewing it as a "core capability," the Pentagon says.

SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY AND PLA NAVY

The People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) is in the process of upgrading a number of older classes of surface warships with new anti-ship missiles, missile defense systems, and cannons capable of firing precision-guided ammunition, Popular Science reports.
The gradual, but steady development of China's ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) program has been closely monitored by international observers. China is the last of the Permanent Five members of the United Nations Security Council to establish an operational SSBN force. A recent report by the U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) says that China's Jin-class SSBN represents the country's "first credible at-sea second-strike nuclear capability." That goal remains a long way off, however. Although the Jin-class is a potential step forward for China's nuclear deterrent, its nascent SSBN program continues to face considerable challenges.

In the past decade, the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) has added significant new capabilities to its order of battle. The average PLAN surface combatant is now a capable, multi-mission platform. The PLAN submarine force is increasingly composed of modern conventional and nuclear units, many employing long-range antiship cruise missiles. The aircraft carrier Liaoning continues steady work as China learns the art and science of naval aviation.
As defense analysts brood over the evolving military balance in the western Pacific, considerations related to undersea warfare keep coming to the fore. Given the lethality of modern antiship cruise missiles, surface combatants of all types may well be scarce on the future naval battlefield. Moreover, precision strikes on airbases (and the inherent vulnerability of aircraft carriers) suggest that aerial platforms could additionally be rather sparse during the first few critical weeks of any military conflict that breaks out in the Asia-Pacific region. That leaves submarines (assisted by undersea robots) to decide the epic battle.

NUCLEAR INDUSTRY

Of all the pieces of Cold War-era jargon that have wormed their way into the cultural zeitgeist, none has been more pervasive (or sobering) than MAD, or mutual assured destruction. The strategic reasoning of MAD is as simple as it is deadly: two adversaries, each with vast numbers of deployed nuclear warheads on high alert, refrain from attacking one another out of fear of unacceptable retaliatory damage. With their adversary's arsenal secured against even the most overwhelming assault, the reasoning follows, a country's strategic planners would never engage in a first strike. It was this lethal logic that guided Cold War superpower relations after the development of the "trident" system of three-pronged deployment: bombers, land-based missiles, and submarine-delivered warheads. This dispersion guaranteed warhead survivability and ensured stability between the United States and the USSR, if at the expense of tremendous uncertainty over the performance of early warning systems.

PUTTING NEWS IN CONTEXT: CIVIL-MILITARY INTEGRATION
|
|
On May 3, China held the fifth annual meeting of the Civil-Military Integration in Weapons and Armament Research and Production System Inter-Ministerial Coordinating Small Group (CMISG). Started at the end of the Hu Jintao administration in 2012, this supra-ministerial body has met annually under the Xi Jinping administration and has taken on increased importance following Xi's elevation of civil-military integration to a national strategy in March 2015, a move intended to provide momentum to an effort that has made mixed progress over the past decade.
The CMISG is tasked with overcoming barriers to civil-military integration and implementing the 2010 jointly-issued State Council and Central Military Commission (CMC) "Opinions on Establishing and Improving Civil-Military Integration Weapons and Armament Research and Production Systems". Reporting of the CMISG's meeting in 2013 offers the most detailed assessment of these barriers, which include institutional mechanisms (rules on weapons and armament development, obstacles to equal competition, military research institute classification); attracting civilian participation in military projects (revision of catalogues, investment); industrial development (civilian CMI-related industries, financial channels); resource sharing (defense intellectual property rights, sharing of large equipment and facilities); and technology transfer (two-way transfer between military and civilian entities, alliances between enterprises, research institutes, and universities, intellectual property rights, integration of military and civilian standards). The 2016 meeting further emphasized the need to accelerate CMI reform to enable CMI to meet both supply and demand in the weapons and armament procurement system.
The CMISG has been chaired each year since its founding by Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) Minister Miao Wei. Vice chairs have included the dual-positioned MIIT deputy minister/director of the State Administration for Science, Technology, and Industry for National Defense (SASTIND) and deputy director of the General Armament Department (changed this year to the CMC Armament Development Department). In 2013, a deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission was a vice chair in lieu of the GAD.
While the large majority of participants are not named, the 2015 and 2016 meetings appear to have expanded the scope and influence of participants. Particularly noteworthy among the 2016 attendees is the increased presence of military representatives, including the CMC Armament Development Department, CMC Joint Staff Department, CMC Logistics Support Department, CMC Science and Technology Commission, and CMC Strategic Planning Office. Another notable addition this year is the Chinese Academy of Sciences, an important institution in bridging obstacles in technology transfer between civilian institutes and China's military research and development system.
While not the only major forum for overcoming obstacles to CMI in China, the CMISG is critical in coordinating CMI reform work across the many ministries and departments that share pieces of the puzzle needed to create a functional CMI ecosystem. Its success in coordinating across issues will be especially important as China implements its 13th Five Year Plan and the new CMI national strategy.
