055 Too many expectations

The 0.55 million ton destroyer is the first high-performance advanced destroyer that my country has achieved overtaking the advanced navy in terms of overall technology. The 055 destroyer has a displacement of more than 12,000 tons, is equipped with a large-scale four-sided phased array radar made in China, and has 112 vertical launch units. Although the vertical launch unit of the 055 destroyer is not the largest in number, it has the largest caliber. The advantage of the large-caliber vertical launch system is that it can be compatible with most of my country's anti-ship missiles and air defense missiles, and it is very versatile.

055 is currently the most beautiful destroyer in the world

The first batch of 8 055 destroyers are still powered by conventional gas turbines. The main combat missions are fleet air defense and long-range anti-ship. But for this 10,000-ton destroyer with a simple appearance and first-class sci-fi performance, military fans have placed it on it. Too many expectations : all-electric propulsion systems, ultra-long-range anti-ship capabilities, one pit four bomb technology, and sea-based anti-missiles, etc., all hope to be realized on 055.

055 carries the expectations of too many military fans and friends

055 The strongest partner exposure

There is a saying that is good, a dream must be there, in case it comes true! This sentence was best confirmed by 055! CCTV recently elaborated on the performance of the 055 destroyer in its report. Among them, it mentioned that 055 has the ability to strike low-orbit satellites. This is the first time that 055 has disclosed its "hidden performance" outside of the conventional fleet air defense and anti-ship capabilities. 055 has strong plasticity and potential for improvement and upgrade, and it is my country’s latest Hongqi 19 air defense missile that helps 055 strike low-orbit satellites.

CCTV reveals that 055 has anti-satellite capabilities

Hongqi 19 is a land-based anti-missile missile. It is an important part of my country's missile defense system. Thanks to the compatibility of the 055 large-caliber vertical launch system, this land-based anti-missile missile was successfully launched on board. After the 055 is equipped with the Hongqi 19 anti-missile missile, it not only has the same sea-based anti-missile capability as the U.S. Navy Aegis destroyer, but the strike range can also reach low- and medium-orbit satellites below 1000 kilometers in height!

The appearance of Hongqi 19 and Hongqi 9 is very different

Expected performance is being achieved one by one

The rapid completion of the first batch of 8 055s shows that this destroyer is not only advanced in performance but also very mature in technology, which has laid a solid foundation for subsequent improvements and upgrades. At present, my country’s all-electric propulsion system has entered the practical stage. Future submarines and large surface ships can use this power system. After 055 adopts this system, it creates good conditions for the next electromagnetic gun to board the ship, because only The all-electric propulsion system can meet the huge power demand of the electromagnetic gun, and the domestic electromagnetic gun has been tested on the Yuting class landing ship as early as last year.

055 is realizing expectations step by step

Having anti-missile capability is just the beginning, the large-caliber vertical launch system of the 055 destroyer can accommodate larger missiles! After the third aircraft carrier is equipped with the Air Police 600 carrier-based early warning aircraft, it can provide relay guidance for ultra-long-range missiles. This will solve the last technical obstacle of 055 equipped with large-caliber ultra-long-range anti-ship missiles, in addition to improving the Eagle Strike 18 Strike accuracy, even supersonic missiles similar to DF17 can be boarded. In the second batch of 055, part of the vertical firing unit may be changed into one pit and four bombs to further increase the density of air defense firepower! There must be a dream, 055 Isn't this being realized one by one!
