MOTHERSHIP FOR UNMANNED VEHICLES LOOKS TO THE FUTURE11 Sep 2007 | Ref. 286/2007
BAE Systems has developed a new concept warship, the UXV Combatant, designed to operate in a future battle space dominated by land, sea and air unmanned vehicles.

Using a proven naval hull form to launch, operate and recover large numbers of small unmanned vehicles for extended periods, the UXV plays the role of mother ship - a permanent base and control centre for the futuristic unmanned land, sea and air vehicles before, during and on completion of their missions.
The 8000-tonne vessel, an evolution of the multi-role warship, is not expected to enter service until post 2020.

The design provides a cost-effective solution to the evolving challenges facing the modern navy. Features will include:

  • Flexible and efficient twin flight decks
  • Variable ski jump
  • Rotary aviation facilities
  • Below-deck hangar
  • Smart munitions

The weapons are a future development of the Type 45 combat suite.
With the UXV support capability, performing multiple roles combined with an easily adaptable design, which moves the concept of stealth to the next level.

Propulsion options include full integrated electrical propulsion with twin propeller shafts/motors supplied by gas turbine and diesel alternators.
Alternatively, cruising power can be supplied by two shafts/motors and diesel alternators with boost power from one gas turbine driving two water jets.

The concept brings together naval technologies developed through collaboration with partners such as Rolls Royce and across BAE Systems business units, as part of a programme of continuous improvement.

BAEでは、2020年頃の艦艇リプレースを見越し、無人機が主役となる将来戦に対応する水上戦闘艦のコンセプトとして「UXV Combatant」を提唱。
これは、8000トン級の船型に

  • 柔軟な運用を可能とする二連V型の飛行甲板
  • 可変式のスキージャンプ
  • 回転翼(ヘリ等)に対応した整備設備
  • 艦内(船体内)に収められた格納庫
  • 指揮統制機能

等を備え、統合電気推進の2軸によって駆動するもので、個艦武装としては45型駆逐艦の発展型としているほか、さらなるステルス性の向上を狙うとなっている。


・・・まぁ、とりあえず「戦艦」はよしとこーぜ?>テクノバーン
