I. China's 055 destroyer The 055 has basically become the model for the next generation of main destroyers, just like the historic status of the Intrepid-class battleships and Burke-class destroyers, with a dual-band phased array, integrated RF, far-medium-near + anti-missile air defense system, a fully compatible drogue that can be used with the 052D, and a comprehensive stealth hull design. The new sonar and helicopter make 055 anti-submarine capability has been greatly improved, with the ability to launch more than 1000 km anti-ship ballistic missile is unique. The 055's anti-submarine, anti-aircraft, anti-missile and anti-ship capabilities are all-around better than the Burke series, except for the anti-missile capability, which may be a bit different from the Burke series. Also, the 055 leaves enough design redundancy for future all-electric propulsion, electromagnetic guns, and directional weapons, so it can be said that before a new generation of destroyers emerges, the 055 drive is the benchmark for destroyer design for the next few decades around the world.
2. U.S. Arleigh Burke-class destroyer This is the world's first Aegis destroyer, after nearly 30 years of successive construction, has become the most advanced and most widely equipped type of U.S. Navy shield ship. The newest model in service is the IIA improved model, and the Type III produced in response to the 055 threat has been launched and is expected to enter service next year. Type III Burke is the most advanced Aegis destroyer in the Burke series, equipped with the new AN/SPY-6 active phased array radar, which is said to be 30 times more powerful than the former AN/SPY-1, with a detection range of about 1,000 km. Combined with the Standard 3 series of missiles will become an unparalleled area air defense destroyer, the 055's most powerful rival.
3. Japan's Moyer-class guided missile destroyer The Moyer-class destroyer is second only to the Chinese navy's 055 large drive shield ships in Asia, using the same technology as the latest U.S. shield ships and the most advanced U.S. standard-3 standard-6 missiles, with a strong CEC (A shot B guide) and IAMD capabilities, that is, anti-missile anti-aircraft are not in the picture, the radar system and the latest U.S. Burke, the comprehensive performance is excellent. Basically, it is the Japanese version of the latest and top-notch U.S. Burke class, nothing to say.
4. Jumbo Walter-class destroyer This class of "crumb" warship, which was declared bankrupt after the construction of three ships, was a test advanced warship for the concept of "sea to land", which was carefully built by the United States. It is obvious that the United States has gone astray, many weapons concepts are too advanced, the final ship many not installed, such as advanced electromagnetic gun, 155mm smart gun shells. The dual-band active phased array radar radar is not installed, the only thing that can be praised is the stealth capability. Now the Jumwalt class is actually a good-looking vase, but in view of its epoch-making significance will be placed in the fourth place, the Jumwalt class can be seen as a failed practice, for the Chinese Navy to feel the United States across the river to learn the lessons learned has made a great contribution.
5.052D Type Destroyer As the Chinese Navy's current suspected mainstay, with more than 15 ships in service, the 052D is a novel shield ship, carrying 64 drogue units in a mere 7,000-ton hull. Four bombs, can carry the advanced straight 20 anti-submarine aircraft. Using 346A four new domestic plate, the overall performance is not inferior to the U.S. and Japanese Aegis. With a full range of anti-ship, anti-aircraft, anti-submarine capabilities, the only shortcoming is the limitations of the hull, the vertical hair is too little, only 64.
6. Korea Sejong Daewang class destroyer This class of destroyer is purely a combination of American technology and South Korean magic modification, with three ships in service. As Asia's first 10,000-ton destroyer, it is equipped with a full set of U.S.-made Aegis systems, 80 MK41 drogue engines and 48 Korea-developed missile launchers, as well as an additional 16 anti-ship missiles and 21 Hiram close-in defense systems, which can be said to be "full of wu-de". The warship's drogue is poorly versatile, 80 and 48 can not be common, anti-aircraft missiles using semi-active guidance standard 2, anti-ship missiles are not surprisingly subsonic, the system, radar, missiles are 2000s level. Anti-submarine performance is good, sonar, helicopters, anti-submarine missiles torpedoes are all available, the overall is a large but not refined a missile destroyer, in today's only by virtue of the number of missiles to occupy the list of sixth.
7.Australia Hobart Class The Hobart is actually a pocket-sized version of the U.S. Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, with three ships in service and a reduced displacement of more than 7,000 tons. U.S.-made AN/SPY-1D (V) four-sided large flat plate and CEC (A shot B guide) function, with excellent area air defense capabilities. Anti-ship capability is still the same old flying fish subsonic anti-ship missiles, but the ship's anti-submarine performance is much better than the above destroyers, with new sonar and MH-60 anti-submarine helicopters, from the body is a weakened Arleigh Burke class.
8. India Visakhapatnam class destroyer This destroyer is India's most powerful destroyer, with one in service, can be said to be a typical universal build, except for the hull, other than basically all the universal brand. Equipped with four small flat panels provided by Israel (active phased array radar) and 32 equipped with Israeli-made Barak 8 anti-aircraft missile drogue drogue unit, in order to anti-ship is also equipped to see 16 drogue unit BrahMos supersonic anti-ship missile. This missile is basically Russian technology, using a high to low ballistic pattern, range enough to exceed 400 km, to the full Mach 3 speed of sudden defense, which is the above-mentioned British, French and Italian destroyers do not have the killer ability. It is worth mentioning that this ship is equipped with Barak missiles should be called Ba "pull across" missiles, Barak range is 70-100 km, but the initial speed of only Mach 2, the terminal speed is Mach 1.2, this speed is also self-protection, as for regional air defense for friendly ships to intercept do not even think about it. Anti-submarine aspects of the equipment ancestral anti-submarine deep bomb and four 533 torpedoes, as well as towed sonar, with helicopters have a certain anti-submarine capabilities, in addition to anti-aircraft performance missile pull across, anti-ship, anti-submarine, radar detection capabilities of the above two.
9.French/Italian Horizon class guided missile destroyer This is a new era French-Italian joint development destroyer. It has the same A50 series 48 drogue unit as the British Type 45, and is equipped with Aster 15/30 anti-aircraft missiles, eight subsonic anti-ship missiles and four 324mm anti-submarine torpedoes. However, as a destroyer with the same displacement as the 052D, the drogue unit is only 75% of the 052D, and its phased array radar is a disgrace to the machine sweep of the passive single-sided plate! I have to say that the British and French can put 7000 tons of large ships armed with hawser into even 22350 frigates are not as good as the destroyer, but also a talent.
10. British Type 45 Missile Destroyer The Type 45 Guided Missile Destroyer is the most advanced Aegis-class guided missile destroyer in the British Navy, and is mainly used as the main ship for the British Navy's regional air defense mission. This caused the ship's performance in other areas is seriously inadequate, a 7,000-ton ship drogue system is only 48, the 48 drogue can only fire anti-aircraft missiles, and Type 45 is not even equipped with anti-ship missiles. The funny thing is that its phased array radar is equipped with only a double-sided machine sweep, anti-submarine performance there are serious problems, the helicopter model is old and can not even launch anti-submarine torpedoes.
