“To monitor India, China’s ‘Yuan Wang 5’ spy ship has arrived at Ambantota port in the southern part of Sri Lanka. India is fully equipped to face this ship,” said former Army Major Madankumar.
He gave an interview to our daily: China, a superpower, has set up a navy called the ‘People’s Liberation Army’. It has a division called ‘Strategic Support Forces’. There are many warships in it.

Among them, the most advanced technology is the “Yuan Wang-5”. It was first designed by China in September 2007. Designed for reconnaissance, the ship is capable of launching intercontinental ballistic missiles. It also has the ability to accurately monitor the activities of satellites of various countries.
It is celebrated as China’s third generation invention. In the modern world, air warfare is on the rise. Similarly, the Yuan Wang 5 is seen as a treasure of the Navy as it has modern technological equipment to face anything like ‘cyber attack’ and electronic warfare.
increasingly maritime boundaries; Countries like France, Russia, USA, India, which have strong navies, have advanced warships like ‘Yuan Wang-5’. India’s ‘INS, Dhruv’ ship is similar to ‘Yuan Wang 5’. The 222-meter-long, 25-meter-wide ‘Yuan Wang 5’ ship will immediately transmit all the intelligence it collects to the Naval Headquarters in the Chinese capital, Beijing.
Also, this vessel, which has the capacity to withstand a weight of 11 thousand tons, can accurately capture any object within a radius of 750 km. Also able to fully monitor its operations. It has the ability to attack and destroy that object. The ‘Lan March-5’ rocket can be launched from the ‘Yuan Wang 5’.
China’s ‘Yuan Wang-5’ ships have been doing surveillance work in the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans for many years. China monitors passenger and cargo ships passing through these waters, in violation of globally followed agreements.
The Yuan Wang-5 ship, which crossed many countries including African countries and went to Pakistan, has arrived at Sri Lanka’s Ambanthota area to monitor the coastal areas of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh in the southern region of India. Tamil Nadu is just 110 km from the ship docked at Amban Thota, Sri Lanka. So, the ship can track Tamil Nadu very easily.
The Chinese ship will monitor Tamil Nadu’s Kudankulam and Kalpakkam Nuclear Power Stations, Sriharikota Rocket Launch Site, Southern Regional Naval Headquarters in Kochi and all ports in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, collect information and report to its headquarters. All kinds of defensive measures have been taken by the Indian Navy to counter this move by China.

India, Japan, Australia and the United States are members of the ‘Quad’ group of countries, which has strongly opposed China’s move. The central government has taken all measures to ensure that no Indian secrets go to China. Beyond that, India has the power and capability to destroy the ‘Yuan Wang 5’ if China comes after it. Madankumar said this.
