2023: Equipment that receives high attention

2023-12-28

Looking back at 2023, from a global perspective, although the number of new equipment has significantly decreased compared to previous years, there are still innovations and highlights. Among them, the new main combat equipment research and development projects of the multinational armies are still ongoing, and significant progress has been made in improving and upgrading active main combat equipment; Large naval frigates and unmanned vessels exhibit many characteristics of intelligent platforms; The rapid development of "intelligence+unmanned" technology in the Air Force has greatly expanded the scope of practical application. The "Dark Hawk" missile company - the first hypersonic missile company in the United States - has postponed deployment. On October 26th, the US Army cancelled the launch of its "long-range hypersonic weapon" due to technical issues before the test launch. At this point, the project has suffered five consecutive defeats, and the US Army's plan to deploy the first long-range hypersonic missile platoon (also known as the "Dark Hawk" missile platoon) at the end of this year has been aborted. The US Army originally planned to deploy its first long-range hypersonic missile platoon at the end of fiscal year 2023. The company is equipped with one command vehicle equipped with the "Afaz" advanced field artillery tactical data system and four twin launch vehicles. The maximum range of the "Dark Eagle" long-range hypersonic missile is nearly 2800 kilometers, and the maximum flight speed is not less than Mach 5. In the past two years, the live fire testing of this missile has suffered consecutive failures, leading to repeated delays in project progress. The Assistant Secretary for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology of the US Army stated that "mechanical engineering issues" with the launch system were the cause of the test failure. He also stated that due to the fact that missiles and launch systems are newly developed equipment, the initial integration of the two is prone to mechanical engineering problems. In later testing, it is considered to separate the two to solve the launch system problem. The US Army plans to conduct comprehensive testing from April to May 2024, and if successful, it will announce that the company has initial combat capabilities. In addition, the strategic firepower battalion of the US military's first multi domain task force is currently undergoing relevant training, and the battalion will first be equipped with the "Dark Eagle" missile company. The F126 type frigate - a 10000 ton class frigate set a new record. In December, the construction of the German F126 type frigate officially began. As the next generation flagship of Germany, the F126 frigate has a full displacement of 11000 tons, making it the largest and most powerful surface vessel built by Germany since the end of World War II. Escort ships are known as "light cavalry at sea" and are an indispensable component of the maritime forces of various countries. Traditional frigates, as medium and small maritime combat platforms, mainly carry out escort missions for maritime transport formations. In recent years, some large frigates with displacement exceeding 6000 tons have emerged, which can undertake anti submarine, anti-ship, and medium to short-range air defense combat tasks. The F126 frigate has a displacement of over 10000 tons and is currently the largest frigate in the world. The main highlights of this ship are a small number of core operators (114 people), strong continuous deployment capability (60 days), and modular design. Under the condition of personnel taking turns to rest, the F126 frigate can be deployed continuously at sea for 24 months. The F126 frigate reflects the development trend of European frigates, which are large-scale, modular, and intelligent. Large scale is beneficial for improving
