Japan stole built aircraft carrier China exposure

Order the military to seize the Diaoyu Islands, Japan has been quietly preparing. Japan's only parachute troops Sunday in Chiba imaginary training in order to regain the enemy occupied the Islands. Japan Coast Guard plans to establish the Diaoyu Islands proprietary Force. Japanese official is rare released under construction "destroyer" 22DDH photos.

This ship has been started in January last year, the first time in the world to see that the ship is not called "aircraft carrier" aircraft carrier. Aboard the Japanese official called "the destroyer" aircraft carrier is still in construction. From his photo, 22DDH construction of continuation of the high standard of the Japanese shipbuilding industry. Various sub-structures centralized assembly, welding workmanship, smooth surface. And the construction of a fairly rapid pace. Built from the beginning of last year so far, less than a year's time, the degree of completion of the hull has been far more than the Indian Navy started 8 years of self-made aircraft carrier "Vikrant".

22DDH only the completion of the current construction of hull and parts around the hangar compartments below the hangar deck, less than half of the upper flight deck straight laying. Because of this, the photo taken from ships rear, where you can see the important information of the completion of state can not be observed hangar. According to it, plus some frame of reference, can be found 22DDH not like the Japanese say, is only used for a patrol, relief "destroyer", but one is not called "aircraft carrier" aircraft carrier.

22DDH equipped with three Phalanx the melee weapons systems and two "Ram" missile launchers, deck and hangar, equipped with 14 ship-borne helicopters, five helicopters taking off and landing at the same time. 27,000 tons full load displacement is far more than the Italian Navy's aircraft carrier "Garibaldi", the Spanish Prince of Asturias "aircraft carrier and the British Royal Navy's" Invincible "class aircraft carrier.

22DDH the main engine for the gas turbine, biaxial, shaft power of 112,000 horsepower, maximum speed is 30 knots. The ship either tonnage, designs, or weaponry Design, infinitely close to the aircraft carrier. Canada, "Han and Defense Review" magazine directly positioned as a modern light aircraft carrier.

Ocean anti-submarine warfare fleet flagship enter service after 22DDH, the Maritime Self-Defense Force's anti-submarine combat double covered waters will also be increased by several times. Japan "world ships" magazine 22DDH high sensitivity of the sonar and helicopter long-range combat capability of the combination, in time of war to prevent neighboring countries as the main weapon to torpedo submarine near the Japanese surface fleet for the Maritime Self-Defense Force Fleet clearance radius of about 300 sea miles of waters. "

Some analysts believe that, 22DDH most likely to attack aircraft carriers. Once sovereignty disputes in Japan, a large number of Chinese Navy submarine force as in wartime combat forces out of the first island chain, will be faced with the checks and balances of a strong anti-submarine forces in Japan.

22DDH characteristics of the aircraft carrier is also reflected in the ability of carrier aircraft. The 22DDH flight deck and the hangar layout in addition to helicopters, rotorcraft, and even UAV the most attention from the United States to buy F-35B fighter. "Han Defense Review" magazine has published an article that, 22DDH ability while carrying more than 12 F-35B.

However, the new photo exposure, F-35B may be difficult to display in a new aircraft carrier. The hangar width of only 20 meters, while the F-35B fighter wingspan of about 11 meters. This means hangar barely "stuffed" F35 fighters, but not for the two F-35 arranged side by side in the hangar. 22DDH lifts located ships in the line, in addition to the rear of the first aircraft, other aircraft are unable to cross it out of the hangar. If you really equipped F-35B, will be difficult to scheduling under the deck.
