AMS
IS NOW DEALING WITH NUMEROUS
COMPLICATED PROBLEMS CONFRONTING THE PLA AS A RESULT OF
GREAT CHANGES
IN THE WORLD'S STRATEGIC PATTERNS AND
RAPID
S AND T DEVELOPMENTS.
AMS
IS SERVING AS A "THINK
TANK",
"BRAINTRUST" ,
AND "COMMAND DEPT" TO IMPROVE
DEFENSE STRATEGIES,
ARMY BUILDING,
AND PREDICTIVE
RESEARCH ON IMPORTANT ISSUES OF FUTURE WARFARE.
THE
ACADEMY
IS "LOOKING TO THE FUTURE"
IN APPLYING SUCH
MODERN
S AND T METHODS AS CYBERNETICS,
SYSTEMATOLOGY,
INFORMATION SCIENCE,
MATHEMATICS,
AND AUTOMATION
IN ITS
RESEARCH
IN SIMULATED OPERATIONS,
COMMAND AUTOMATION,
MAN-MACHINE
INTERFACE,
AND MILITARY DATA BANKS.
AMS
HAS ALREADY ESTABLISHED OVER 1,000 STRATEGIC,
CAMPAIGN,
AND TACTICAL RESEARCH MODELS,
SIMULATIONS SYSTEMS,
AND
SPECIAL MODELS TO AID
IT
IN ITS RESEARCH WORK.
B.
UI AIR FORCE RI AND BEIJING FIRE BRIGADE
DEVELOP "TURBOJET TAIL GAS/WATER MIST FIRE ENGINE"
(LAD,
OCT).
THIS HIGH EFFICIENCY FIRE-FIGHTING
VEHICLE WAS DEVELOPED USING A DECOMMISSIONED TURBOJET
ENGINE FROM A PLA AIR FORCE FIGHTER.
DURING RECENT
APPRAISAL TESTING,
THE ENGINE EXTINGUISHED A BLAZING
FIRE
IN AN 80 SQUARE M OIL POOL
IN UNDER
10 SECONDS.
THE NEW SYSTEM WILL BRING ABOUT A SIGNIFICANT
IMPROVEMENT
IN CHINA’S FIRE-FIGHTING CAPABILITIES.
C.
SHENYANG MR TRAINING SIMULATION EQUIPMENT RI
TRANSFERS MILITARY LASER TECHNOLOGY TO ENTERTAINMENT
INDUSTRY
(LAD,
26 OCT).
THE RI APPLIED
ITS LASER
SIMULATION TECHNOLOGY TO BUILD A HIGH TECH AMUSEMENT
PARK CALLED "LASER GUNFIGHTER CITY"
IN YINGKOU IN
LIAONING PROVINCE.
THE PARK WAS
SO SUCCESSFUL THAT THE
RI NOW HAS CONTRACTS TO BUILD SIMILAR PARKS
IN
SHENYANG,
DALIAN,
LUOYANG,
AND CHENGDU,
WHICH WILL EARN
IT A PROFIT OF OVER
1.6 MILLION YUAN.
D.
GLD HEALTH DEPT SETS UP RESEARCH FUND FOR
MILITARY MEDICAL PERSONNEL RETURNING FROM STUDIES
ABROAD
(LAD,
OCT).
MILITARY MEDICAL PERSONNEL
UNDER 45 YEARS OF AGE, WHO HAVE STUDIED ABROAD FOR AT
LEAST
6 MONTHS AND HAVE RETURNED TO CHINA FOR LESS THAN
1 YEAR,
ARE ELIGIBLE TO APPLY FOR FINANCIAL SUPPORT
FROM THE FUND WITH WHICH TO CARRY OUT SCIENTIFIC
RESEARCH AND EXPERIMENTS.
NINETEEN RETURNING STUDENTS
HAVE ALREADY OBTAINED ASSISTANCE FROM THE FUND, WITH
OF THEIR RESEARCH PROJECTS
IN THE HIGH TECH BIOLOGICAL
FIELD.

DEFECTS AUTOMATIC MONITORING DEVICE"
(LAD,
OCT).
((ZHANG)) XINGYUAN (STC
1728/5281/0356)
HAS DEVELOPED
AN "ELECTRONIC DOCTOR" WHICH CAN AUTOMATICALLY MONITOR
DEFECTS
IN RADAR SYSTEMS,
GIVE A WARNING ALARM,
AND
ISSUE APPROPRIATE GUIDANCE TO REPAIR THE DEFECT.
THE
DEVICE RECENTLY WON A STATE
S AND T PROGRESS AWARD AND
IS BEING INTRODUCED THROUGHOUT THE ARMY.
F.
PLA AIR FORCE NUMBER
1 AERONAUTICS RI DEVELOPS
HIGH TECH EQUIPMENT FOR LATEST COMBAT AIRCRAFT
(LAD,
30 OCT).
THE RI'S LATEST DEVELOPMENT
IS THE BASIC
PROTOTYPE OF A NEW "LASER RANGEFINDER" FOR A SPECIAL
AIRCRAFT.
IT HAS ALSO DEVELOPED A "SPECIAL RADAR
INTERFACE" AND AN ACCOMPANYING "INTERFERENCE PRODUCING
UNIT", WHICH ADAPTS ADVANCED FOREIGN TECHNOLOGY TO
GREATLY IMPROVE THE CONCEALABILITY OF PLA AIR FORCE
COMBAT AIRCRAFT
IN A FUTURE WAR.
THE RI
IS CREDITED
WITH DEVELOPING A SERIES OF LASER FIRING SIMULATORS FOR
A VARIETY OF AIR FORCE AIRCRAFT,
WHICH HAVE EFFECTIVELY
IMPROVED AIRCRAFT TRAINING THROUGHOUT THE AIR FORCE.
OVER THE PAST
5 YEARS,
THE RI HAS COMPLETED 58 AWARD
WINNING PROJECTS,
85 PERCENT OF WHICH HAVE BEEN
SUCCESSFULLY APPLIED,
AND
60 PERCENT OF WHICH HAVE BEEN
ADDED TO THE AIR FORCE'S EQUIPMENT INVENTORY.

COMMENTS:
1.
(SOURCE COMMENTS)
GLD'S XINXING CORP
HAS FOLLOWED COSTIND
IN EXPLOITING HONG KONG'S
INTERNATIONAL CONNECTIONS.
THE
1-15 OCT 92 DSTI REPORT
INDICATED THAT COSTIND WAS EXPANDING ITS CONCEPT OF
"WINDOW ENTERPRISES", WHICH IT HAD BEEN SETTING UP IN
THE SHENZHEN SEZ FOR THE PAST
10 YEARS,
INTO HONG KONG.
"WINDOW ENTERPRISES" GENERALLY ARE SINO-FOREIGN JV
FACTORIES, WHICH PRODUCE HIGH TECH CIVILIAN GOODS FOR
MARKETING OVERSEAS.
COSTIND MAINTAINS
IT HAS HAD
CONSIDERABLE SUCCESS INDUCING FOREIGN COMPANIES TO
INVEST FUNDS AND THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY
IN SUCH
OPERATIONS AND NOW HOPES TO FURTHER EXPAND
ITS NETWORK
INTO HONG KONG,
ALTHOUGH THE TERRITORY DOES NOT REVERT
TO CHINA UNTIL
1997.
NOW,
GLD'S MARKETING ARM,
XINXING,
HAS SIGNED AN AGREEMENT WITH HONG KONG’S MOST
SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEUR,
((LI))
HASHING,
UNDER WHICH
HIS FLAGSHIP,
CHEUNG KONG HOLDINGS,
WILL ATTEMPT TO
EXPLOIT THE TECHNOLOGY AND PRODUCTION OF GLD FACTORIES
(PARA
3A)
CHINA'S DEFENSE
INDUSTRIES ARE ANXIOUS TO
CONVERT AS MUCH OF THEIR MILITARY PRODUCTION CAPACITY
AS POSSIBLE TO CIVILIAN GOODS BEFORE THE END OF THE
CENTURY TO MEET NATIONAL ECONOMIC GOALS.
THEY ARE ALSO
NOT AVERSE TO OBTAINING COLLATERAL FOREIGN TECHNOLOGY
PROVIDED BY OVERSEAS FIRMS
INVOLVED
IN SINO-FOREIGN
JVS,
WHICH MAY ALSO BE USED TO ENHANCE PLA MILITARY
EQUIPMENT DEVELOPMENT.

CHINA SHIP NEWS PROFILED FIVE KEY NAVAL ENGINEERING
CENTERS RESPONSIBLE FOR RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
IN CHINESE
WARSHIPS
IN ITS
30 OCT EDITION.
MOST OF THE CENTERS
ARE
IN THE GREATER SHANGHAI AREA,
AS
IT
IS AT THE
SHANGHAI SHIPYARDS THAT MOST PLA NAVY WARSHIPS ARE
BUILT.
THE JIANGSU AUTOMATION RI HAS APPARENTLY
DESIGNED THE UNMANNED ENGINE ROOMS AND COMPLEX COMMAND
SYSTEMS FOR THE NAVY'S NEWEST FRIGATES
(PARA
6G)
.
THE
SHIPBUILDING RI UNDER THE HUDONG SHIPYARD,
WHERE THE
NEW FRIGATES ARE BUILT,
DESIGNED THE OVER-PRESSURE
SYSTEMS ON THE FRIGATES, WHICH THE NAVY CLAIMS ARE
"FULLY SEALED" AGAINST CHEMICAL OR NUCLEAR ATTACK (PARA
6J).
THE WUHAN SHIPPING DESIGN RI
SEEMS TO BE A KEY
PLAYER
IN EFFORTS TO UPGRADE SOME OF THE NAVY'S
EXISTING MEDIUM SIZE WARSHIPS
(PARA
611).
THE SICHUAN
RI,
RESPONSIBLE FOR BUILDING LARGE TRANSMISSION AND
GEAR SYSTEMS,
HAS
APPARENTLY CONTRIBUTED TO DESIGN OF
PROPULSION SYSTEMS FOR THE NAVY AND FOR ARMORED
VEHICLES FOR THE GROUND FORCES
(PARA
61).
FINALLY,
THE
JIANGSU ELECTRONICS FACTORY HAS BEEN INVOLVED
IN
DEVELOPING SONAR EQUIPMENT FOR THE NAVY
(PARA
6K)
.
3.
AN AIR FORCE RI
IN BEIJING HAS APPARENTLY EXPLOITED
THE PROPELLING FORCE OF A JET ENGINE TO DEVELOP A VERY
SPECIAL FIRE TRUCK FOR EXTINGUISHING PETROLEUM FIRES,
WHICH DO NOT RESPOND TO NORMAL FIRE-FIGHTING EQUIPMENT
AND TECHNIQUES (PARA LOB).
THE RI SAVED FUNDS BY
DEVELOPING THE SYSTEM USING AN OBSOLETE JET ENGINE
FROM A DECOMMISSIONED AIR FORCE FIGHTER.
THE SOVIET
ARMY DEVELOPED A CHEMICAL AGENT DECONTAMINATION SPRAY
TRUCK
IN THE
1960S USING THE SAME TYPE OF ENGINE.
THE
TECHNIQUE FOR THE FIRE-FIGHTING ENGINE
IS PROBABLY
SIMILAR TO THE ONES USED BY CHINA'S ANTI-CHEMICAL
WARFARE UNITS.
4.
MOFERT
IS PLANNING AN EARLY JAN 93 EXHIBITION TO
POPULARIZE CHINA'S LATEST HIGH TECH DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE
CIVILIAN PRODUCTS LINE
(PARA LLA)
.
THE SHOW HAS
OSTENSIBLY BEEN SET UP TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT CHINA
IS
NOT SUCH A BACKWARD THIRD WORLD COUNTRY AND
IS READY
FOR ENTRY INTO GATT.
THE FACT THAT THE SHOW WILL BE
IN
THE PLA MUSEUM SUGGESTS THAT MANY OF THE GOODS ON
DISPLAY WILL HAVE BEEN PRODUCED BY DEFENSE
INDUSTRIES.
THE EXHIBITION
IS CLEARLY FOR THE BENEFIT OF FOREIGN
LEADERS;
HOWEVER,
A CONCURRENT SEMINAR ON THE
IMPACT OF
GATT ENTRY ON CHINA'S ENTERPRISES AND BUSINESSES
IS
PRIMARILY FOR DOMESTIC CONSUMPTION.
LARGE SEGMENTS OF
CHINA'S HUGE STATE-OWNED INDUSTRIAL SECTOR HAVE
EXPRESSED GRAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THEIR VIABILITY
IF CHINA
COMPLIES WITH GATT FREE TRADE REQUIREMENTS.
MMBEI
IN
PARTICULAR, WHICH CONTROLS THE LARGEST SEGMENT OF

STATE -OWNED FACTORIES,
IS PUSHING FOR SPECIAL TARIFFS
AND QUOTAS TO PROTECT
ITS LOSS-MAKING FIRMS FROM
FOREIGN COMPETITION
(SEE
1-15 OCT 92 DSTI REPORT).
PRELIMINARY INDICATIONS FROM THE STATE COUNCIL ARE THAT
THESE INDUSTRIES SHOULD NOT ANTICIPATE SUCH PROTECTION
AND MUST MAKE EFFORTS TO BUILD PRODUCTS THAT ARE
COMPETITIVE ON INTERNATIONAL MARKETS.
