Are there any numbers for the RCS of modern warships? Obviously

>Zumwalt is king
It's not actually, The African Republic of Swedistan had stealth corvettes far before Zumwalt was around.

The Type 45 is currently the most advanced Warships in the world with a radar signature smaller than that of the Zumwalt.

>>34441578
Zumwalt hull is actually kockums tech.

>>34442185
>average gun versus AGS
>average hull shape versus tumblehome hull
It isn't

>>34442185
T45 is a heap of shit

What people don't realise is the Zumwalt is a gigantic fucking monolith, size is an element of stealth

wew lad, why is this?

There was a saying in the 1980's. A British expert once said, ' If you see a wake but see no ship in your radar. Then you have found the Chinese Type 055 destroyer.'

RN is phasing out their block 1C Harpoons in 2018, with no direct replacement available.

Sounds like the F-35 too me

>>34442789
With the F-35 you at least know the DoD will keep pumping money into the program until it works as promised. That didn't happen with the Type 45.

Aster-30 can intercept ballistic missiles

source?

>no dedicated X-band radar for surface search
so is Arleigh Burke
and, surface radars in other frequency band can do the job.

>>34443109
>Aster 30 can intercept ballistic missiles
Yeah and the Standard 2 ER is an anti-ship missile, that doesn't mean it does it well.

>>34442626
>LRLAP doesn't exists
>HVP doesn't exist
>Excalibur doesn't exist
>Vulcano doesn't exist

>>34442789
Yes I imagine the F-35 wouldn't perform very well if you tried to use it as a boat.

>>34442185
yeah it's 100ft shorter than the Zumwalt and has a 10ft shorter beam than the Zumwalts, so it might have a smaller RCS.

>>34441578
Swedish stealth vettes were only 1/3 of the size of a zumwalt and have a larger RCS. so yeah, not king, just first.

>>34443109
>Aster-30 can intercept ballistic missiles

with inertial guidance/radar emission homing? whatever you say bud.

>so is Arleigh Burke
>and, surface radars in other frequency band can do the job.

ABs are old bud, most were built before X-Band was an option, and the flight 3s are built around their new split band radar platform. additionally SPY can be used for surface search if need be.

also whats with the SAMPSON radars pathetic power output?

>>34442185

This is the most obvious reverse bait to try and get people to lash out at the Bongs I've ever seen.

Russins has Paket-NK, which uses 323mm torpedoes against incoming torpedoes. Or if the enemy sub is too near.
