Interesante articulo reciente del siempre interesante blog finés Corporal Frisk al respecto de ¿Cuántos VLS me pongo?
Excelente aportación. Es muy interesante.
Ahora, al Frisk ese habría que explicarle que las fragatas noruegas (que menciona antes de este párrafo) se basan en las F100 españolas y que si va a poner ejemplos de ese tonelaje, mejor ponga las F100, que con el mismo desplazamiento que las Sachsen alemanas que menciona, ofrecen 16 celdas de las largas adicionales:
This does seem to strengthen the idea that the render shows the [finnish] Pohjanmaa able to take not one, not two, but four eight-cell Mk 41 launchers. This isn’t unheard of in a vessel of this size, but we are at the very edge of the launchers per tonnage-ratio for frigates and corvettes. The current German air defence frigate, the 5,700 ton F124 Sachsen-class as an example sport the same 32 Mk 41 cells, though in addition it also has two 21-shot launchers for short-range RIM-116 RAM-missiles. The British Type 26 (6,900 ton) has 24 Mk 41 cells for larger weapons, and 48 dedicated cells for the Sea Ceptor air defence missiles (roughly similar to the ESSM in capability). The FREMM-class is another design in the 6,000 to 7,000 ton range – depending on exact version – and in the air defence versions sport a relatively limited complement of 32 (French version) or 16 (Italian version) Sylver-cells, which basically is the European system corresponding to the Mk 41.
Volviendo a nuestro caso de las F110 con sus 16 celdas VLS, me quedo con esta frase:
Eight SM-2 and 32 ESSM simply doesn’t provide for the weapon numbers to be able to fight a prolonged battle either at medium or at closer range
Y esta otra, que es la cantidad de celdas que deberían llevar nuestras F110 para ser polivalentes:
32 cells offering a combination such as eight Tomahawks, eight SM-2, and 64 ESSM is already a load that wouldn’t look out of place in a NATO North Sea task force, and would provide a land-attack capability, a limited area air defence capability, and a serious medium-range air defence capability any task force commander would be happy to have in his or her force.
