The Type 052D destroyer, also known as the Luyang III class, is a class of guided missile destroyers currently in service with the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) of China. This class represents a major modernization over its previous iterations and is considered among the most advanced surface combatants currently operated by the PLAN.
Technical Specifications:
Displacement: The Type 052D has a full load displacement of about 7,500 tons, making it significantly larger than its predecessors.
Dimensions: It typically measures about 156 meters in length, with a beam of 18 meters and a draught of 6 meters.
Propulsion: The ship is powered by a combined gas and gas (COGAG) arrangement, featuring four QC-280 gas turbines. This setup allows for high speeds and efficient cruising.
Speed and Range: The Type 052D is capable of reaching speeds up to 30 knots (56 km/h) and has a range of approximately 4,000 nautical miles (7,400 km) at 18 knots (33 km/h).
Armament: The destroyer is heavily armed, with a 64-cell vertical launching system (VLS) capable of firing a variety of missiles, including HHQ-9 long-range air defense missiles, YJ-18 long-range anti-ship cruise missiles, and CY-5 anti-submarine missiles. It also features a 130 mm dual-purpose gun, close-in weapon systems (CIWS) for point defense, and anti-submarine warfare (ASW) torpedoes.
Electronics: The Type 052D is equipped with advanced radar systems, including the Type 346A phased array radar, and has sophisticated electronic warfare and countermeasures suites.
Aircraft Carrying Capability: The destroyer has a hangar and flight deck capable of operating one medium-lift helicopter, typically the Harbin Z-9 or the Kamov Ka-28, enhancing its anti-submarine and search and rescue capabilities.
The Type 052D destroyers are considered integral to the PLAN's blue-water ambitions, enhancing China's ability to project power and maintain a presence in distant waters. They play a key role in air defense, anti-surface warfare, and anti-submarine warfare operations.

Actually, most PLAN surface combatants including destroyers and frigates, do already have short-range searching radars called H/LJQ-364 (Type 364, or SR64 in terms of export version) , which is similar to US Navy's AN/SPQ-9A. H/LJQ-364 featured a parabolic antenna covered in a spherical dome; it operate in X band with rotation speed of 15/30/60rpm depends on mode. On Type 052B/C/D and Type 051C destroyers, H/LJQ-364 is installed on top of the main mast to maximum the horizon range. H/LJQ-364 radar serves as target acquisition/indications and fire control for main gun/Type 1130 CIWS and HQ-10 SAMs. Now PLAN do have newer models of X-band close range phased-array radar on Type 055 destroyers (four fixed-arrays antennas) and Type 075 LHD, Type 054B frigates (a rotational back-to-back phased array antennas), and on the future batch of Type 052D(E).

The curvature on the earlier AESA panels was due to cooling limitations, not beam forming constraints.

@picardtseng 5 месяцев назад

The VLS on Type 052D/Type 055 destroyers are quite different from the Western "hot launch" systems such as MK-41/Sylver. This PLAN common VLS is compatible with both "hot launch" and "cold launch" missiles, since the launching facilities are built in canisters , not into launchers. The western had similar concept many years ago called "Concentric Canister Launcher"(CCL),but PLAN implemented it first and their "hot/cold" common VLS is the only one of this kind by far. This is necessary for PLAN since they had both hot and cold launch missiles; HHQ-9 series is cold-launched, YJ-18 cruising missiles and Yu-8 (Chinese VL-ASROC) are hot-launched.

@picardtseng 5 месяцев назад

On the other hand, the "hot-launched" VLS on Type 054A frigates is highly similar to MK-41 and Sylver , but it's only compatible with HQ-16 SAM and Yu-8 VL-ASROC

@adrianpaz472 5 месяцев назад

Just a clarification. At mach 3, which is more-less 1kms, when detected at the horizon, an Aegis ship has around 30 seconds before the missile impacts it. The response time of the aegis/vls allows for engaging it with either Sm-6, sm-2 or ESSM. However this last would be the optimal. Additionally, CRAMs are also capable. On the other side, the phalanx ciws range has the issue that even if it is able to intercept the missile, the speed of the missile would mean it is likely to impact the vessel with debris even if intercepted. In short, It is a very good and capable missile (at least on paper) but Arleigh Burks are still able to intercept it.

@brandonhoffman4712 5 месяцев назад

He said by the time you see it. Meaning detected by your eyesight. He was just trying to describe the missiles speed. Of course the missile is still capable of being intercepted. It's as fast as a f15 and 10 feet shorter based on missile tube. Then there's hypersonic missiles. God forbid one of those be traveling @ mach 25...

@SuiLagadema 5 месяцев назад

Not a navy guy here, but since you said the YJ-18 flies between 10 to 15 ASL, isn't there a chance for it to hit a wave on the way and just become a really dangerous seabed mine? Or is it able to compensate for that? Edit: I'm asking because I've heard that waves that high aren't uncommon in the open sea, or rogue waves. To anybody, please correct me if I'm wrong.

@brucelytle1144 5 месяцев назад

Just thinking here... If I was designing something to do this, I would use a forward looking radar and shoot for 10-12 ft above the wave tops, not trying to maintain 10-12 ft below the missle.

@jannegrey593 5 месяцев назад

Sea-skimming profile that missile takes would depend on weather and weather forecast (as well as knowledge of sea between ship and target) and would be chosen just before the launch. In basically State 0 of the sea, it can fly really low. But in rougher weathers it will fly slightly higher. Note that rougher weather also means that it could be harder for many radars to detect it, even if it is higher.

@brandonhoffman4712 5 месяцев назад

It's a missile, not a rocket. Missiles have eyes and a brain, they are capable of navigation and movement. A rocket goes in a straight line if it's aerodynamically sound. It doesn't if it isn't. Sea skimming is a marketing term for the military industrial complex. Meant to imply a sneaky missile that tries to hide close to the surface of planet earth.

I disagree on your view that the Type-52 destroyer HHQ-9B doesn’t have the capability to shoot down Sea skimming AsHm.. Sea skimming technology isn’t something new and if the Chinese knew that their missiles aren’t capable against Sea skimmers it would never accepted into their navy ships, moreover the AESA radar is powerful enough to detect the incoming missiles from pretty decent range and guide the SAM to intercept it.

The first HHQ-9 it is derivaten from S-300PMU-1 with some Chinese specific tech in them, it’s a love child of S-300PMU-1 and Patriot, they do not have the same minimum engagement altitude as S-300F, nothing similar in guidance, nothing like S-300F. S-300F uses radios command guidance, HHQ-9 uses semi-active radar homing and infrared homing mode. And why would not the radar detect a missile? it’s an AESA, they have the same band with as US radar on Aegis ships, can’t they detect incoming missiles?

It's only a failure because the Navy kept changing/upgrading the requirements.

As we all know the 40+ knots requirement was the killer; which begs the question what submarine can go that fast even on the surface?

Chines VLS is Cold ejection or Could Lunch. Is a diferent “system” and second his Active Radar is better then the Americans. They have diferent versions but the Chines Acrive radar have better definition and have more electrive power output. That’s the big concerns of the American navy, because American DD can not be improve anymore, they don’t have more room for better equipament or better power generation. That’s something that the USA navy should be working on it.

US has two huge seaboards, the Pacific and Atlanic. Many safe of warm water ports free of ice in winter to carry on its shipping trade. Russia does not have this advantage. Even its warm water port in Sevastipol since 1790 is only accessible via Nato member Turkey Bosphorus. China has two islands chain and choke points galore, easy to blockade, as Mallaca Straits. Japan attacked Pearl Harbour only after it was blockaded by US, unable to import materials oil etcc and export finished manufactured goods. China is in same position as Japan was then. Thats why its trying to build infrastructure on land via the Belt and Road Initiative to imort and export. US can order Egypt to prevent for example Iran using the Suez canal. The Brits control the choke point into the Med via Gibraltar, as example the Brits took over an Iranian tanker that was refused use of Suez, went all the way round Africa only to be hijacked by UK at Gibraltar. Hence the Russians and Chinese are developing the Northern Sea Route and the North South Corridor to ensure secure trade routes. The Brits and East India Company, even before the Royal Navy had over a thousand warships and colonised the entire world. The US took over from the Brits and became the worlds Imperial power because of control of ports, ships, trade and the control of world finance via the Dollar after WW2, again after replacing British Sterling as world trading currency. All the wars since WW2 are an attempt to keep world domination of resources, trade and get everyone to finance US debt by investing in US Treasuries and holding billions of dollars which US can and is starting to seize.

True but island chain is no longer an issue for China and the US without the foreign port will be isolated from rest of the world especially in East Asia. It goes both way when comes to power projection if both sides are peer level.

In regards to coping the mk 41 VLS system you would have to blame the pr/sales Depts of the manufacturer. I have a pdf download of a detailed sales/specification/info package and it the details of the drawings and pictures would be sufficient with the right level of technology be enough to reverse engineer the mk 41 VLS system. On a side note, the same can be said for time-lapse and associated view of the construction of the USS ford released by her biulders. There was enough details to easily workout the dimensions of side protection system, the only question been the nature of the inclined TPS belt/ inclined internal armour belt/ bulkhead which is obviously quite thick but it depth within the hull is rather obvious. The position of and external dimensions of the two 'hot boxes' is clearly shown. Makes it rather easy to guess what you would need disable the ship in a war situation.

@picardtseng 5 месяцев назад

As to the anti-cruising missile capability, maybe Type 052D is not that bad. Certainly, HHQ-9 is not a proper interceptor for the sea-skimming missiles and I believe its minimum engaging altitude is relatively inferior to the newer version of SM-2; but the real problem is that Type 052D did not have the interceptor like ESSM in the early years (PLAN has, which is HQ-16 on Type 054A); according to some reliable sources, PLAN has deployed HHQ-9B and some "new medium SAMs" on Type 055's VLS, that could be the further variant of HQ-16 that much more closer to ESSM(including quad-pack canisters ) . As to "horizon issue", no ship can engage "over the horizon" targets "alone" due to the simple physics (radar go straight, the earth is spherical); The real issue is that whether PLAN have the cross-platforms integrated AAW fire control network like US Navy's CEC/NIFC-CA. According to some descriptions of the PLAN surface fleet drills, they do have some capabilities within integrated AAW fire control categories such as Precision Cue(PC), but whether they have some more advanced capabilities within CEC categories is unknown.

@bcsak4362 5 месяцев назад

I guess, you simply cannot put enough armor on a ship to defend against modern, big ASM warheads. Ships would have enormous tonnage and dangerously low speed. It's better to recon and hit the enemy before they can hit you + have good defense weapons and decoy.
