Aircraft carriers and aircraft are not enough to "freedom of navigation" in the South China Sea. US State Department spokesman Kirby confirmed this on December 19. In the media briefing of the State Council, he said that the US military's placement of unmanned submersibles in the South China Sea for material collection and research is "freedom of navigation", and China's detention of submarines violates "international law."
Kirby said in the media briefing that the submersible belongs to scientific equipment for marine research. Kirby also stressed that he himself did not know what tasks were being carried out and what materials were collected at the time, but it was definitely doing and could only do work related to marine research.

Kirby also said that submersibles work in "international waters" and are also applicable to "international law." The detention of submarines in China is "illegal."
The reporter asked Kobe if he would aggravate the tension in the South China Sea. Kirby replied: "(This incident) will certainly not weaken the tension."
Kirby also affirmed the reporter's statement that "the United States is more worried about China." Kirby said: "The US ambassador to China, Bocas, has been involved in the negotiations... The United States has made efforts to coordinate through the ambassadorial level."
The United States has always used the "freedom of navigation" as an excuse to provoke China's doorstep, but whether it is an airplane, an aircraft carrier, or an unmanned submersible, China's attitude has always been the same. The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated that China has always respected and safeguarded the freedom of navigation and overflight enjoyed by all countries in accordance with international law, but resolutely opposes any country to show off its power by exercising navigation and overflight freedom, and undermining China's sovereignty and security interests.
Regarding the Chinese navy’s detention of US submersibles, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that a Chinese navy rescue boat found an unidentified device in the relevant sea area of ​​the South China Sea. In order to prevent the device from harming the navigation safety and personnel safety of passing ships, the Chinese side is responsible. The device was identified and verified with a professional attitude. After verification, it was determined that the device was a US-based unmanned submersible, and the Chinese decided to hand over to the US through appropriate means.

We adopt the advanced technology imported from Europe, patented technology, specialized software to optimize the design for dry type transformer. The core is made of cold-rolled grain-oriented silicon steel sheet which cut in step-lap by GEORG Germany TBA core cutting lines and laminated by the method of fifth-order step-by-step stacking technology, enabling the no-load performance of the core to improve greatly. The epoxy resin from American HUNTSMAN is adopted for the windings which casted in the vacuum resin casting machine imported from HEDRICH, Germany. The winding material ensures good permeability, no bubbles occur, which leads to minimum partial discharge. The HV and LV winding mate with each other tightly, which ensures solid strength of structure and capability to withstand short circuit and vibration. Under normal service condition, the service life of dry type transformer is 30 years. No crack will form on the surface of transformer winding due to temperature variation as long as the transformer runs under normal service condition.
