Taiwan plans to deliver the first 10,000-ton amphibious dock landing ship "Yushan " this year. The Taiwan Navy and the outside world have always placed high hopes on it. When the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee of the Legislative Yuan reviewed the budget, a member proposed that the Ministry of National Defense should implement the day and night takeoff and landing of helicopters of the three armed forces. The training of the "Yushan" ship also verified items such as weapons, fuel storage, mounting and medical personnel support, so that the new ship 's combat capabilities could be fully utilized . Application In addition to its long history in the navy, the sea patrol can also extend the mission distance through the use of frigates and aircrew helicopters. What kind of helicopters can take off and land on the "Yushan" ship, and what kind of helicopters can be permanently stationed on the ship , and the main attack with the Navy's carrier-based aircraft The anti-submarine sea cruiser carrier aircraft is specially responsible for search and rescue. Taiwan's expectations for the "Yushan" amphibious dock transport ship are far more than that . Today, we will talk about the Taiwan "Yushan" ship that has been entrusted with the carrying force to carry out the amphibious landing operations. In recent years , the Taiwan Navy has accelerated various The speed of upgrading weapons and equipment on June 20, 2016, the Taiwan Navy announced 12 shipbuilding plans. It plans to spend NT $ 470 billion between 2018 and 2019 to develop a new generation of amphibious dock transport ships, multifunctional personnel transport ships, and amphibious helicopter dock landing ships . The main battleship, a new generation of guided missile frigates and a new generation of submarines and other multi-type ship plans "Yushan" ship is also one of the 12 shipbuilding plans of the Taiwan Navy . The "Xuhai" dock landing ship "Xuhai" was originally the USS "Pensacola" dock landing ship and was bought by Taiwan after it was retired in 1999. On July 21, 2000, it officially joined the Taiwan Navy to serve "Xuhai" ” is 168.8 meters long , 25.9 meters wide, 5.6 meters draught, 8,600 tons of standard displacement and 13,700 tons of full-load displacement. It adopts steam power system . At present, all kinds of equipment on the ship are very old and outdated and have frequent failures. Therefore, the Taiwan Navy urgently needs a new type of ship to replace it . The new amphibious dock transport ship shipbuilding plan began in 2017. After 2 years and 6 bid openings, all bids failed, and finally in 2019, the Taiwanese ship won the bid for NT$4.635 billion and started construction on May 6 of the same year International Shipbuilding in Taiwan The groundbreaking ceremony was held. On January 17, 2021, the full view of the new high-rise tower with concealed canopy built by the "Yushan" combined with composite materials was first exposed. On March 18 of the same year , the erection ceremony was held . On April 13, the naming and launching ceremony was held. Based on the image of the highest peak in Taiwan, it was officially named "Yushan Warship". According to public information , the "Yushan" ship has a full-load displacement of 10,600 tons, a hull length of 152 meters, a draft of 20 feet, a maximum speed of 21 knots, and a range of 7,000 miles . The "Yushan" ship refers to the U.S. "San Antonio"-class amphibious dock transport ship , which can carry 9 AAV7 amphibious assault vehicles, 1 LCU general landing craft , and 4 LCMs. Mechanized landing craft 1 H6 amphibious assault gun vehicle 7 Humvee vehicles Almost all amphibious landing equipment can be covered The deck can be used for landing and take-off of CH-47SD helicopters of the army aviation. The ship-based helicopter can carry 2 helicopters. The personnel part includes 190 officers and soldiers. 250 troops and extra space for more than 230 people fully loaded with more than 670 people, amazing transportation capacity The ship also has a double hangar Size to accommodate Sikorsky's "Seahawk" and "Blackhawk" helicopters Flight deck for helicopter operations Wet dock Can be directly injected with water Accommodates and retracts the landing craft The amphibious vehicle swims out of the cabin by itself The power system is two 2-axle 6PA6L-280 diesel engines The self-defense arm of Taiwan's past amphibious landing ships is mainly based on 40mm fast guns with a range of about 8,000 meters. With 20mm machine guns and machine guns, including two "Newport" class chariot landing ships leased from the U.S. military in 1995 and one "Anchorage" class dock landing ship received from the U.S. military in 2000, all maintain the firepower configuration of 40mm guns Although some amphibious ships have been equipped with short -range MIM-72 "Sea Congshu" air defense missiles , the range is only 5 kilometers and they do not have anti-missile capabilities. The efficiency of modern maritime air defense operations is not high. Relatively speaking, the self-defense capability of the "Yushan" ship is also obvious. The strengthening will be the first time that Taiwan's amphibious ships are equipped with medium-range air defense missiles. The ship 's weapons include a 76mm MK-75 fast gun on the bow, a MK-15 phalanx close-in weapon system at the front and rear of the hull, and a 30mm remote control cannon on each side of the rear of the bridge. Four sets of quadruple-mounted "Haijian 2" air defense missile launchers are installed on both sides of the middle section of the hull . Entering the modern naval warfare of the 21st century, anti-ship missiles have become the biggest threat to the ship. Therefore , the main armed configuration of the "Yushan" ship is aimed at air defense and anti-missile. It is necessary to install 16 " Haijian 2" air defense missiles with a range of at least 30 kilometers and the ability to intercept anti-ship missiles on the "Yushan" ship, and the space in the middle of the ship is large. It is also possible to install 6 to 8 quadruple launch boxes. Although the design of the "Yushan" ship is not based on attack, its firepower has been able to cover the air and surface threats within a certain distance. It is reported that the "Yushan" warship can park 2 helicopters, and also has complete air defense and sea self-defense capabilities . Time in the open sea to independently perform various combat missions , while the wartime mission is to form an amphibious task force to carry out various combat missions of amphibious combat reinforcement and recovery of outlying islands. Adopting a more modern design, the most obvious change in appearance is the highly invisible shape. The vertical part of the hull has a certain inclination angle. The equipment on the ship also adopts a hidden design as much as possible, which greatly reduces the cross-sectional area of ​​the radar . Generally, the ship adopts metal lattice masts . Reflecting a large number of radar signals , the "Yushan" warship adopts the most advanced enclosed mast radar system, and hides the transceiver antennas, including the air/sea search radar, in a fully enclosed tower-shaped cover, which greatly increases the stealth and can also avoid Equipment Damaged by sea salt or foreign objects In addition , the configuration of the chimney is also obviously committed to reducing other signals such as infrared radiation and radiant heat. The liaison boats on both sides also have special accommodation cabins with a closed design. The "Yushan" ship also focuses on reducing the reliance on friendly shore facilities, reducing manpower requirements and reducing operations. Cost Retain future improvement space and improve independent combat capability. Most of the improvements in this part are to replace manpower with automated systems and enhance endurance, maximum speed, and maritime self-sustainability. Among the 12 shipbuilding plans announced by the Taiwan Navy, the ship project that received the most attention from the outside world at first It is a "new generation main battleship". The senior officials of the Taiwan Navy have said that this type of ship will be developed and built by itself. The ship is equipped with a phased array radar, and its performance is comparable to that of the "Burke" class destroyer of the US Navy. The full displacement of 6000-8000 tons will be built in the future 4 to replace the 4 "Keelung" class destroyers that are currently in active service. However, due to Taiwan's overall military and scientific research strength , the research and development of many warships, including the "new generation of main battleships", has faltered. Various technical indicators are difficult to determine. The effective progress is on the contrary , the "Panshi" class oil and bomb supply ship "Yushan" class dock transport ship , which is relatively low in technical difficulty and can use a large number of civilian equipment and civilian standards. The auxiliary ships developed smoothly and were launched soon . Trial or service Taiwan's current number of amphibious landing ships is only one "Xuhai" dock landing ship with a full load of 13,000 tons, two "Xingang" class tank landing ships with a full load of 8,700 tons, and a "Gun" class warship with a full load of 4,800 tons. There are 5 car landing ships, 8 in total. Taiwan has a marine corps with a total strength of 10,000 people. The number and carrying capacity of the aforementioned ships are obviously not enough to cooperate with the marine corps in operations. The Penghu Islands in the Taiwan Strait, the large and small Kinmen Islands and the Matsu Islands , Dongsha Island and Taiping Island in the South China Sea are all stationed with troops . However, the situation urgently requires the transportation of heavy weapons and the need for defense replacement . The existing amphibious ships can hardly afford it, especially the islands in the South China Sea, which are now the focus of controversy. It is far away from the main island of Taiwan. The sea and air cover forces are stretched , and the "Yushan" ship with enhanced defense capabilities has strong performance to perform related tasks . More importantly, the "Yushan" ship is added and built in batches. Because of the novel design concept and equipment, in addition to greatly improving the aforementioned Problem It can also perform tasks such as "distributed killing" and "anti-submarine carrier" flexibly. The "Yushan" ship is expected to be delivered in April 2022. In the future , at least 2 ships and a maximum of 4 ships will become the new main force for the Navy to perform amphibious landing and transportation and replenishment tasks.
