The US super battleship is rusty, so it does not care for equipment, it really does not want it! #Weaponry#
Battleships floating at sea are very easy to corrode, the high salinity of the sea, the high humidity of the sea surface, all provide favorable conditions for steel corrosion, so those battleships that have been on duty for a long time and have no time to enter the dock for maintenance, it is very normal for serious corrosion! In fact, the corrosion of the surface is good, and the internal corrosion is often impossible to repair through maintenance, which is the key factor that determines the life of the battleship! And if it is those outdated ships, the Navy's careful maintenance and careful use of the mood will also be greatly reduced, such as the Ticonderoga class cruiser in the picture below!
The United States is planning to retire all of these warships, because they no longer meet the needs of future operations, and naturally do not want to care for equipment. A total of 27 ships were built for the Ticonderoga class, which is really not much compared to the Alibberk class, which has exceeded 72 ships and is still being built at high speed! And the oldest 5 for the Condraga class has been retired, the other 22 youngest are also 28 years old, are currently difficult to maintain, in the context of the economic downturn, it is likely to be completely abandoned.
The Ticonderoga class is an upgrade on the basis of the Spruance-class destroyers, the tonnage has increased from 7700 tons to 9900 tons, the typical seedling growth, the hidden dangers behind it are very many, and the third picture below is a comparison of the two-class ships. Ticonderoga's phased array radar is also not powerful enough, its back-end processing capacity is very limited, can only continuously monitor the area within 85 kilometers, in order to solve this problem, specially equipped with a two-dimensional radar to continuously scan the airspace within 450 kilometers, after finding the target and then by the phased array radar to intervene! Such a collapsed radar is obviously behind the times! If you don't want to retire all of them, you must all change blood and upgrade, and then look at this ugly appearance, it is better to retire directly.
