Chinese naval ships detected near Andamans
中国军舰在安达曼群岛附近被侦查到
KOLKATA: With ships of the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) snooping around the Andaman islands on routine basis, the ministry of defence is contemplating deploying more assets in the island chain in the days to come.
印度军方监测到中国海军舰艇在安达曼群岛附近的活动，印度国防部正考虑未来日子里向该群岛海域部署更多舰艇。
According to sources, the Andaman and Nicobar Command (ANC) – the country’s only strategic command comprising the Army, Navy and Air Force – have detected Chinese naval ships very close to India’s territorial waters in the recent past. A report states that PLAN ships attempt to get close at least twice every three months.
设在安达曼-尼科巴群岛的战略司令部是印度唯一由陆海空三军组成的战略司令部。消息人士称，最近该司令部侦测到中国海军舰艇非常靠近印度领海。有报道称，这样的情况每3个月至少会发生两次。
“They have been detected on every occasion and we have made it very clear to the Chinese that we are monitoring their movement. Though we have detection capabilities in the Andamans, we don’t have assets that can work as a deterrent. Only landing craft and some patrol vessels of the Indian Navy are deployed in the islands. This is inadequate. There are no weapons platforms. There aren’t any missiles on the islands that can be used against incoming ships or aircraft. This has to change,” a senior officer from Delhi said.
“他们每次都被侦测到，我们向中国人明确表示我们正在监控他们的活动。尽管我们在安达曼群岛拥有侦测能力，却缺乏威慑手段。印度海军只在安达曼群岛部署了登陆艇和巡逻艇，这是不够的。没有任何武器平台。岛上没有任何导弹以应对来犯的舰艇或飞机。这必须得到改变。”
