Littoral combat ship combat range, the problem of Littoral combat ships

Littoral combat ships also have anti-submarine type, anti-ship type, anti-aircraft type, integrated type in different directions.

The tonnage and design ideas are different, and the equipment is diverse.

Their combat range depends entirely on the attack range of their carriers, and the detection range does not have to be taken into account, since it can be provided by a datalink from other AWACS aircraft or radar bases.

In general, the combined attack range of Littoral combat ships is within 100 km.

Coastal and tidal flats, within the territorial waters of the state.

The maximum speed cannot be maintained for a long time, and it is only used during combat maneuvers, so it is better to avoid "missiles" and "high thunder", in this case, the theory will not exceed 30 minutes, and the fuel will not be consumed mainly because of the heat dissipation and wear of the main engine.

Independence class 4300 nautical miles 20 knots or 4500 nautical miles 16 knots, at present, the United States is ready to retire this **.

This kind of littoral combat ship is not suitable for all countries, and the Visby-class stealth patrol ship that Sweden is the first to equip is actually an enlarged stealth multi-purpose missile boat, and the United States has prepared it for pure patrol near the coastal water.

China has mothballed the 022 missile boat and replaced it with the 056 corvette, and in a certain sense, the "missile boat" cannot replace the function of the frigate.

<> "The U.S. Navy has solicited a new frigate design from the industry, reflecting widespread dissatisfaction with the problematic Littoral Song Frigate-sized Gruffy Combat Ship." Littoral combat ships have fallen victim to excessive technological ambitions and a changing geopolitical environment, and they are poor, unreliable and outdated in dealing with a world of global threats. Instead, the Navy wanted a more traditional missile frigate capable of playing a larger and more complex role.

The Navy issued a request for proposals. The RFP lets the shipbuilding industry know what the Navy is looking for in the new type of ship tentatively called the Fast Missile Frigate, codenamed FFG(X). The RFP clearly states that such a fast missile frigate should be significantly different from the current Littoral Combat Ship of the Navy.

The Littoral Combat Ship is comparable in size to a frigate and was originally designed to be multipurpose with a variety of replaceable "mission modules".

Littoral combat ships with aluminum hulls want to have as few crews as possible (about 70 people) that operate mission-specific modules and complete anti-ship, anti-submarine, anti-mine and special operations missions. These ships are especially suitable for littoral waters.

The Littoral Combat Ship project was a frustrating failure. The ship proved to be unreliable, with several worrisome breakdowns at sea. Touted mission modules often end up in vain, and even after more than a decade of research and development, very few are actually deployed to the fleet.

Without these modules, the strike firepower of these ships is very small, with only one 57-mm naval gun and a pair of 30-mm light cannons mounted in the bow. The Navy has been promising to bolster the firepower of littoral combat ships in the form of anti-ship missiles, but even this relatively simple job has not been completed. In addition, the requirement to control the number of crew members overworked the crew of the Littoral Combat Ship.

Littoral combat ships are also victims of the changing geopolitical era. The Navy once wanted a ship that would operate on the periphery of the global war on terror, an effective ship that could operate in the coastal zone. But over time, it turned out that the real need for such a ship was not as great as it seemed.

The development of such ships and their mission modules has taken so long that the strategic environment has changed, and the Littoral Combat Ship has become something flashy.

The Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy is growing, while Russia is becoming more aggressive and using more and more naval power abroad. Compared to the Chinese and Russian navies, the Littoral Combat Ships have very little equipment, and they do not even have anti-ship missiles that can be aimed at the enemy. To make matters worse, the Navy's initial proposal to equip the Wild Stall's anti-surface missiles, the Griffin, and later the Hellfire, were too powerful and too close to counter Chinese frigates, let alone destroyers.

Littoral combat ships also prioritize speed over range (they can reach speeds of up to 40 knots at full speed), but when it comes to operating in the vast Pacific Ocean, such priorities seem reversed.

This is an online report, this may be China's littoral combat ship, this ship has a domestic 76 mm naval gun, a domestic roof radar, a new sea search radar, an Eagle Strike 83 missile, and a 730 close defense gun, as well as a vertical launch system, a new type of close defense missile, etc., it can be said that China's littoral combat ship.

Probably true! Hopefully true!

You mean those ships with low endurance, strong assault capabilities, high speed, and good maneuverability. They tend to be smaller in tonnage, such as missile boats, torpedo boats, and gunboats, which are largely gone. They are characterized by small targets, which are not easily detected by the enemy, and quickly approach large enemy ships in a very short time, which are used for defense and raids on close targets.

In our country, it can be used for frontal combat against Taiwan. In the Russian Far East, it can be used to fight against Japan, and in the Persian Gulf Iran can be used in the Strait of Hormuz.
