中国在南中国海岛礁扩建军事设施

China has nearly completed a military-length runway on one of the artificial islands it has built in the disputed South China Sea, according to satellite photos published by a maritime monitoring group.

The Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative (AMTI) , which is affiliated with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, says China continues to pave and mark the 3,000-meter airstrip, which analysts say is capable of accommodating any plane in China's air force fleet.

Additional military facilities - including two helipads, up to 10 satellite communications antennas, and a possible radar tower - are also being built on the Fiery Cross Reef, said the group's online report.

The reef is one of seven locations in the Spratly Islands where China is reclaiming land.一个海事监督组织公布的卫星照片显示，中国在有争议的南中国海一个岛礁上建造的跑道已经接近完工，该跑道的长度可做军用。

亚洲海事透明计划组织说，中国在继续铺设这个简易机场。分析人士说，这个机场可用于中国空军的所有机种。

亚洲海事透明计划组织在网上发表报告说，中国还在这个岛礁上修建其他军事设施，包括两个直升机机坪、10个卫星通信天线以及一个可能是雷达天线塔的设施。

中国在南中国海七个岛礁上进行填海造岛工程，该岛礁是其中之一。
