The current international and domestic biosafety situation is complex and diverse. With the progress of biotechnology, the use of biological weapons in the future battlefield may become a revolutionary and subversive means of warfare and determine the direction of war. It is necessary for surface ships to arrange in advance for biosafety protection. This paper discusses main biosafety challenges faced by surface ships from the perspectives of biological warfare agents in wartime and infectious diseases in peacetime. These challenges include increasingly fierce biological warfare, bioterrorism threat, increasingly frequent emerging infectious diseases, potential threats brought by the development of biotechnology and so on. Besides, the shortcomings of protection methods and equipment currently used by surface ships to deal with biological threat are analyzed, which include its weak ability of real-time detection and identification of microorganisms and the lack of isolation and disposal equipment for internal infectious sources. In view of the above deficiencies, the countermeasures are put forward from the perspectives of monitoring and protection. On the one hand, we should actively develop remote, non-contact, real-time and rapid-response biological monitoring equipment. On the other hand, based on the construction standard of biological laboratory, we should build the isolation and disposal cabins of surface ships. This paper aims to improve the response ability of surface ships to biological threats, and provide theoretical support and reference for the R & D and upgrading of nuclear, chemical and biological protective equipment of surface ships.
