Recently, a small stealth ship appeared, which turned out to be an experimental ship. The ship has sparked all sorts of speculation and controversy, with some believing that it is futuristicCorvette, there are also people who believe that it is a foreign trade product. However, now we can be sure that the ship is a technical experimental platform, which bears the responsibility of a new generation of largeDestroyerstasks.
This experimental ship is the same as the existing Type 055DestroyersComparatively, there is a big difference. Therefore, some people jokingly call it the new large in the futureDestroyersThe scaled true model is designed to verify the configuration of the future drive. From this point of view, the future of largeDestroyersThere will be a greater focus on stealth performance and possibly the adoption of initiativeStealth technology。As can be seen from the existing **, there is a transitional platform in front of the bridge, which is supposed to be used for the installation of a vertical launch system. And above the middle of the cabin, a Haihongqi-10 long-range air defense system is abruptly installed, and this design raises doubts.
There are also some questions about the stealth performance of the ship. On the one hand, the ships that emphasize stealth performance are actually equipped with the Haihongqi-10 system. This may seem to be contrary to stealth performance, however, it is possible that this was only temporarily installed for some experimental purpose. On the other hand, due to the displacement of the ship and other conditions, large ones were not installed on the experimental platformRadarThis part of the verification will be done on other platforms.
Despite its small size, the experimental ship is significant as a platform for technological experimentation. Through this platform, we can verify the maturity of relevant technologies and improve the craftsmanship and configuration layout of the ship. The rapid construction of the experimental platform indicates that the relevant technology has been relatively mature, and the focus now is on how to carry out engineering experiments to finally determine the final form of the ship.
The future direction of development should be to further strengthen the stealth performance of the ship and optimize its technology and configuration. This experimental ship is a large new generation for the futureDestroyersThe development provides an important reference. According to current speculation, the next stage of the construction of new ships may be improved on the basis of the Type 055 and become the rumored Type 055B. It is worth noting that in terms of continuity of technology and processes, preparation for production and use of equipment, etc., the Type 055B will not change much.
As the technology matures, we are better able to respond to the needs of ships, and the focus on the improvement of stealth performance also demonstrates our countryNavyContinuous enhancement of strength. In the future, we are looking forward to a new generation of large-scale in our countryDestroyersIt is believed that it will show China's strength and style in the field of world ships.
