Isn't one ejection aircraft carrier sufficient?The "Shandong" ship can be equipped with an electromagnetic ejaculation, or the deck can be tied

In the past few days, there are a lot of news and analysis of the aircraft carrier of "Fujian". Presumably many people have been annoying. Let's talk about something different today. On the whole, for the Chinese Navy, only one flat deck ejection aircraft carrier is obviously less. So, can we increase the number of ejection aircraft carriers through the modification of the "Shandong" and "Liaoning"?

In fact, the modification of the aircraft carrier makes it not an empty talk to make it more powerful. The most typical is the modification of the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force on the two "Izumo"-class helicopter carriers, making it a light aircraft carrier that can carry F-35B vertical take-off and landing fighters, which greatly improves its aviation combat capabilities. Therefore, for the Chinese Navy, the two aircraft carriers of "Shandong" and "Liaoning" are not without the potential to modify.

However, from the perspective of service life and design layout, the modification value of the "Liaoning" aircraft carrier is obviously lower than the "Shandong". Considering the original layout of the 1143.5 aircraft carrier, the "Liaoning" aircraft carrier will focus on the expansion of training and aircraft carrier use tactics with the continuous expansion of the Chinese naval aircraft carrier forces.

Therefore, today we mainly explore the possibility of modifying the "Shandong" aircraft carrier.

The first modification solution: retain the slippage off deck, install an electromagnetic ejaculation;

This modification plan has a small impact on the modification of the "Shandong" aircraft carrier. The original slip -off deck of the "Shandong" aircraft carrier and the two long -term take -off points remain unchanged. On the diagonal angle of the "Shandong" aircraft carrier, like the "Fujian" aircraft carrier, an electromagnetic projectile is added. In this way, the "Shandong" aircraft carrier will directly have the ability to ejection ship carrier.

Laying only an electromagnetic ejaculation on the oblique flying deck

Although from the perspective of the bright side, the electromagnetic maggots arranged on the slanted flying deck cannot be performed when recycling the carrier -based aircraft, but for the "Shandong" aircraft carrier, even a ship of an electromagnetic projectile It will also greatly enhance its overall combat effectiveness.

The disadvantage is that it will affect the recycling operation of carrier -based aircraft

First of all, it improves the projection efficiency of carrier -based aircraft. The electromagnetic rebounder arranged on the slanted flying deck is matched with the original two long -distance take -off points, which can fly more carrier -based aircraft in a short time. Considering that the electromagnetic rebounder does not consume the power steam of the aircraft carrier like a steam projectile, its ejection efficiency is higher in a short time.

Secondly, the type of carrier -based aircraft carrier of "Shandong" was added. Even the ejection-15, J-35 stealth carrier-based aircraft and air police-600 fixed-wing carrier-based early warning aircraft cannot take off. After having an electromagnetic projectile, the "Shandong" aircraft carrier can also use the same carrier -based aircraft configuration as the "Fujian" aircraft carrier. In the future, with the maturity of stealth carrier -based unmanned attack aircraft, the "Shandong" aircraft carrier can also be equipped with stealth carrier -based attack aircraft to fight to further enhance the combat effectiveness.

This modification scheme is very suitable in terms of cost perspective or from the perspective of engineering. ", Very suitable for the transition before the 004 nuclear power carrier service.

The second modification plan: cutting the sliding jump take off the deck, flattened the deck, and installed three electromagnetic ejaculation;

Compared with the first modification solution, the amount of this modification scheme is much larger. The "Kaga" light aircraft carrier, which was modified recently, directly cut off the entire ship. Therefore, for the "Shandong" aircraft carrier, cut off the entire skid deck, and installed a flat deck without much problem.

Cut the "Kaga" ship

The influence of gliding deck on the "Shandong" aircraft carrier combat effectiveness not only reduces the delivery efficiency of carrier -based aircraft, but also affects the parking efficiency of carrier -based aircraft. If the flying deck is a flat plate, more carrier -based aircraft can be parked on the flying deck, which can effectively improve the aircraft carrier's aviation combat efficiency.

In this regard, the most typical is the "Queen Elizabeth" aircraft carrier equipped by the Royal Navy. Although it still uses a sliding take -off method, the front deck is divided. Take off, and the other half is a regular flat deck, which is used to place the on -board carrier -based aircraft. Of course, for the "Shandong" aircraft carrier, either keeps retaining the slip -to -deck, or it is all changed to a flat deck. The "split -style front deck" in the UK is not necessary.

"Queen Elizabeth" -class aircraft carrier "divided front deck"

If this is modified, the "Shandong" aircraft carrier will become a truly flat deck ejection aircraft carrier. In addition, like the "Fujian" aircraft carrier, three electromagnetic projectiles are arranged. Compared with the "Fujian" aircraft carrier, except for the overall flight deck area and the area of ​​the hangar, there is no big gap in terms of carrier -based aircraft combat efficiency.

Summary -Modification of old warships is still one of the important directions of our army in the future;

In recent years, with the large number of Chinese Navy's new types of warships, some Chinese military fans have a "floating" mentality. They believe that the original old warships can consider retiring exports in advance to save more funds for purchasing new models to purchase new models Warship.

Modified and upgraded 052B missile destroyers

But in fact, the service of a large number of new types of warships in a short period of time also means that the so -called "old warships" have not lag behind this era whether they are the age of the ship or the design concept.Taking the 052B missile destroyer as an example, although it is nicknamed "Large 054A" after the modification and upgrade, it has a period of full -load displacement of 6,000 tons.ability.The "Shandong" aircraft carrier officially joined the Chinese Navy in December 2019. Judging from the service time of the U.S. Navy aircraft carrier, there is no problem in serving for thirty or forty years.In the next few decades, the "Shandong" aircraft carrier cannot always maintain the current state, and the need to modify and upgrade to adapt to the needs of the new era and the new combat environment.
