On previous articles I have pondered on how it would see 😁 best Idea would be Hypsersonic Mach 9 in its termimal phase but cruises around at lower speed to avoid forming plasma. Well the Burkes also have VL-ASROC, SM-3 and SM-6, plus those Mk41 cells mean that the Burkes could fit VL-launched anti-ship missiles if they wanted. (And also fit drop tanks to the F-35s to extend range.). The three Phalanx mounts installed on HMS Prince of Wales July-August 2020 give overlapping 360º coverage. ], “The guest poster at UKDJ probably meant that it’s technically possible, but it would seem that it hasn’t been done, for CAMM, CAMM-ER, or LRASM yet.”.
First the huge growth in radars and ECM kit taking up a lot of the top weight. The further away from a ship a missile is destroyed the better. I don’t much like the Type 31 and would much prefer the full amount of Type 26 and 45s, but the 31 is a quarter of the price.

The key issue is that they kick out packing material debris when they launch, meaning that you have to halt air ops in order to clear the deck after any launch. Ideally 4 of each if there’s space. Through a rolling procurement programme, the RN had accumulated 36 mounts by 2001 which comprised a mix of Block 1 (Baseline 2) and Block 1A. The nature of these signals is that they are significantly more powerful close by than they are further away- if I recall correctly it’s an inverse square. But even if they don’t, it would be nice to see a politician make a sensible decision even if it means he/she doesn’t get re-elected. The Ship has proudly flown the flag for the UK across the Atlantic.”. It has a variety of different sub-projectile sizes, which could be used in a pre-mixed configuration of larger and smaller sizes.

There was a version that wasn’t bought by any country in late 80’s that included the possibility of start firing APFSDS when the enemy missile entered the last 1-1,5km.

You might argue that this includes a missile system, but why not just have a separate system for missiles such as RAM (or Sea Ceptor)? A pre-production Harriers are used alongside F-35Bs on the Wasp-class and America-class ships. Well I can’t say because I don’t know every weapon system out there, although I do know that the Spike-NLOS ATGM has a huge range of 25km. Couldn’t agree more.

We also need to develop an extremely long-ranged successor to TLAM, which ideally would be stealthy.

However, these are all fixed panel AESA systems, so must be mounted lower down due to the weight. Ideally though I’d prefer a better baseline so that ships have multiple layers of defence. I’m a bit confused though.

down incoming mortar rounds.

Well I already said that AHEAD and PFF ammo couldn’t be used against such missiles. And as I said, it’s completely short-sighted, foolish and negligent to not defend ships as well as we possibly can. That’s absolutely insane. Do you have a source saying they’re less accurate?

The carriers and amphibious vessels all use RAM out of the 21-cell Mk49 and the rest of the Burkes have Phalanx. Likewise, if we pick up one of the models that has a land attack mode too, then we expand our surface fleet capability massively.

stand-off armour and reactive armour, although obviously the armour shouldn’t be too heavy or it’ll affect the speed that a ship can sail at). the Naval Technical Phalanx has more ammunition to fire off. I believe the updated Leonardo 40mm guns can all use the BAE / Bofors 3P ammo, but the Leonardo 76mm & 127mm use Leonardo’s own roughly equivalent 4AP (designed for bigger shells). The Millennium Gun could fire airburst rounds, he added, along with more traditional high-explosive rounds. systems have been built and deployed in the navies of 22 nations.

That said, I believe helicopters also drop sonobuoys for wider area search nets, in addition to what is supposed to be a very good dipping sonar. (HMS Edinburgh, 2012), The forward mount being fitted to RFA Tidespring in Cammell Laird shipyard.

And while there might be a radar seeker head, there will likely be inertial guidance which would also be unaffected.

I think 6 LRASMs complemented by cheaper anti-ship missiles would be the best bet, e.g.

Scutter can also be fitted to subs, so fit it to the Astutes, Trafalgars and Vanguards. I’m sure if mounted well below the deck line on sponsons the issue would be minimal.
Block 1 greatly I know talking about budgets is annoying but everything comes down to them one way or another.

Do you have sources confirming this? ), TLAMs and then quad-pack CAMMs in the remaining cells. Rapidly up-armed in light of painful experience, HMS Illustrious with the first two Phalanx mounts in service with the RN departs the Tyne, June 1982.

If a ship commissioned in 2003 can’t take out an old subsonic anti-ship missile then something is seriously wrong.

“Bear in mind that LRASM isn’t yet cleared for use in ADL or (I think) Mk41” Well I’d use ADL for CAMMs or ESSMs, not LRASM. Burst (automatic fire): 1000 rounds per minute Effective range : 3500m 5. – I’d rather the Type 26s were built with the same radars as the Type 45s and had Aster 30s and Aster 30 Block 1NTs as the first layer of missile defence.

That is why if we look at the gold plated solution, it would include SeaCeptor, Artisan and the T23 combat management system (CMS). This was: “widely believed to have caused the navy to enter into a programme of record to upgrade the entire fleet with Phalanx having a secondary mission of protecting the ship from surface or slow-moving air targets; i.e. As missile technology evolved, Raytheon has developed the Phalanx System in response. In the event of multiple attacks, the next most imminent threat will immediately be engaged.

The next thing we need imo are vast numbers of suicide drones to take out fixed SAM and radar sites, mobile SAM launchers and mobile anti-ship missile launchers in Russia and China.

--- And considering how long it takes to build ships, that’s another good reason to defend them as well as possible. Le Close-In Weapon System Phalanx comprend un canon principal Vulcan Gatling de 20 mm à six tubes qui possède une cadence de 3 000 coups à la minutes. “and any engagement window is going to be very short.”.

“I’m also not sure how the cold launch system would work with an ADL type launcher, seeing as it’s at such and angle.”. And we don’t have many carriers, destroyers and frigates to begin with, so we need to protect them as best as we possibly can. Units are rotated between warships in refit and RFAs not deploying to high threat areas, providing for planned maintenance, as the table above indicates, there are sufficient numbers for the RNs requirements. Another example is the Rheinmetall Oerlikon Millennium Gun. For something like a T26 which only has one primary radar. It’s resistent to ECM and physical countermeasures and has a no-escape zone of 60km. The deployment was also the first for the reformed UK Carrier Strike Group staff according to a Royal Navy news release, headed up by Cdre Michael Utley, who said: “This has been an extraordinarily successful deployment on the Royal Navy’s journey to full Carrier Strike capability. The Horizon class have been earmarked for a mid life upgrade. If you are going to stick… Read more ». The gun is fully trainable with a horizontal arc of 300º, the expectation being that usually at least two mounts will be installed per ship for overlapping 360º coverage. the rate of fire to 4,500 rounds per minute. The USN had probs with anti torpedos, and withdraw them. And I deliberately said ‘escort’ to avoid terms like destroyer and frigate which have no global meaning. The orange discarding sabots are clearly visible. The best practise is to kill the shooter , or its mid course guidance source before the missiles are shot. Retro-fitting Sea Wolf to RN warships was neither affordable or practical whereas the Phalanx offered an immediate remedy. It uses the 40mm CTAS which from this write up (https://www.thinkdefence.co.uk/cased-telescoped-armament-system/) looks a heck of a lot better than the DS30 and has selectable ammo natures including an airburst option optimised for anti-air.

The self-contained nature of Phalanx makes it particularly useful for self-defence of large, vulnerable auxiliaries that lack their own sensors and combat systems.

“probably the aircraft carrying capacity which is the carriers main focus.”. Phalanx may prevent the loss of the ship but may not be able to stop it from becoming eliminated as an effective fighting unit.

As a low cost solution, I think adding the T23’s systems would be a huge benefit to the amphibs, but it all depends on what happens to the T23s when they retire. Without their paltry 12 CAMMs they’re just overgrown, ridiculously expensive OPVs (compare them to the Danish Iver Huitfeldt-class they’re based on and tell me we’re not getting ripped off).

As I said, replacing sunk ships (or repairing mission-killed ships) would be a lot more expensive in the long run than fitting our ships with the best defences available. Block They may look at the Seamaster SM400 system replacing the EMPAR. rocket threat. This radar has three modes, i.e. The Invincible Class had SeaDart for most of their lives (tbh SeaWolf would have been a better choice but thats in hindsight) Right now as far as ASHMs, the Type 23s and Type 26 carry Sea Ceptor which can be used as an ASHM abiet with less explosive power but better kinetic impact. From a collector stand point, which is more desirable, the civilian model or the military model? T42 did help to provide additional to resource to the submarine screen. Rheinmetall is working with a number of suppliers on these efforts, and one potential customer exists, though Mr. McLoughlin said the project was still in its early stages. In such a scenario it would make sense for the Phalanx to (a) be longer ranged and (b) have access to as much ammo as possible. Pretty sure all of the Nimitz carriers are down to three Phalanx now however as one was removed to make way for RAM.

To my mind a ship operating of the coast will be required to defend against many incoming threats and should be able to help lay down fire itself.
