Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for integrating a large-caliber gun on a ship according to the features of the preambles of claims 1 and 2 and a ship's gun according to the features of the preamble of claim 6.
  • the currently used marine munitions are specially manufactured and are not compatible with land munitions.
  • Other ammunition eg. B. tank ammunition, etc. can not be used.
  • Another disadvantage, the previously used marine munitions is the short range, whereby targets on land can not be fought without significant own risk.
  • Another disadvantage of the relatively small caliber of the guns is that the guns prone to weather, such. As wind are, resulting in small ammunition, a relatively high dispersion occurs.
  • Such a gun is known from EP 0 051 119 A1.
  • An automatic loading system for a large caliber ammunition is described.
  • a howitzer (155 mm) is mounted on a carriage.
  • the gun carriage is permanently installed on a ship's deck. This results in the problem that the recoil forces of the howitzer / gun carriage are introduced directly into the ship's structure.
  • the object of the invention is to meet the existing military requirements to realize the capability of naval fire support (NFS) for the use of military ships in the coastal area, in particular the fire support amphibious operations is important here, the projectile range should be considerably increased, so that also targets inland with a high Hit accuracy can be combated.
  • the solution of the task is to be made possible in new construction, or conversion of ships without serious changes in the steel structure and with the least possible financial and time.
  • the invention is based on the finding that the use of the hitherto unsuitable land guns on ships meets the new needs of the navies, not to cover with expensive new development, but with existing, even exceeding the expectations of technology.
  • the tower of a land gun can be connected with an adapter plate and a shock-absorbing storage and installed on the ship that the existing steel structure of the ship withstands the increased recoil forces.
  • this installation can be done in modular design, so that no significant changes are made on the ship and the installation can be made for a short time.
  • the land guns with a caliber> 127 mm can be used unchanged, with the projectile deck to be transferred recoil forces is absorbed in a particularly advantageous manner by a shock absorbing storage, so that by the advantageous technically easy to manufacture adaptation, design of the adapter plate and additional shock absorption over the Deck floor a connection of the standard of the ship technology with the standard land technology is manufactured, whereby this new need of the navies is not covered with expensive new development, but with the existing land guns preferably the 155 mm howitzer.
  • modular use of the tower and the weapon system of Panzerhaubitze 155 mm as a ship's gun can be achieved in a particularly advantageous manner, a long range and a strong effect in the target with low dispersion.
  • the gun according to the invention can further advantageously intelligent submunitions, z. B. Zerlege- or fog ammunition, etc. carry.
  • the use of a turret with the 155 mm gun howitzer as a ship's gun with an advantageous range of ⁇ 40 km from a safe position, enables on-land fire support.
  • the modular installation of the howitzer on the ship can be sealed ABC tight by the use of a radial damper, so that a threat to the operator is excluded.
  • the long range allows a greater distance of the ship to the land whereby a location of the ship is much more difficult.
  • destinations on land can be easily located by helicopter and drone from the ship.
  • the use of carrier bullets is also made possible by the invention, which targets are definitely taken when using bomblets without 100% exact target coordinates are required, this being a particular advantage at sea in the fight against ships.
  • the invention allows a doubling of the control range at sea for sea targets. Due to the sophisticated, intelligent sensor technology of the gun howitzer, the gun carriage aligns itself again, although the ship moves on. Due to the high accuracy, a significant reduction of the shots to be delivered is achieved.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates the construction of a land gun 1 on the upper deck 7 of a ship 2 of the naval forces.
  • a rotatable tower 3 with abanrichtbarer armament 15 of a land gun on the example of the tanker 155 155 mm successivefully used by the land forces visible.
  • the tower 3 is equipped with an unrecognizable inertial platform with GPS satellite navigation at the tower 3 or at the gun carriage. This measures the position of the tube 3 in space and the geographical position on the earth. Via satellite navigation, the exact position of the turret 3 is determined and consequently the necessary orientation of the tube 15 can be calculated.
  • An unillustrated Feuerleitrechner receives the desired target coordinates and determines the necessary ballistic curve regardless of the ship-related influences. For the firing of the tower 3 is rotated according to the target calculation about its axis and the tube 3 is directed to the trunnion axis 16 in height.
  • the shock-absorbing bearing 5 is supported by a mounting frame 6.
  • the mounting frame 6 can be fixed together with the adapter plate in the tower modular as a unit.
  • the mounting frame 6 is designed so that it compensates for the space of a present on the free deck of the ship 7 hole and can be mounted on the existing hole edge portion 9 of the deck 7.
  • the lower half of the tower turntable 12 is connected to an intermediate frame 4,13 or the adapter 4 or the adapter plate, or inserted therein, wherein the intermediate frame 13 is connected to the shock-absorbing mounting 5.
  • the adapter plate 4 and the intermediate frame 13 have in a manner not shown on an appropriate, scalable according to the respective frame spacing shape with integrated stiffening structures for static and dynamic force application of the gun weight in the structure of the carrier ship.
  • the shock-absorbing bearing elements 5 consist of energy-absorbing damper and shock elements and reduce on a damping of about max. 150 mm the forces to be transferred to the deck to a tolerable level.
  • the shock-absorbing bearing 5 consists of bearing elements 5 ', which are arranged in a segment on the circumference.
  • the bearing elements 5 ' are connected to the intermediate frame 4,13 so that they absorb pressure and tensile forces depending on the weft direction and elevation angle and accordingly compressed or pulled apart elastically for shock control.
  • the bearing elements 5 ' are multi-axially resilient according to the weft direction and elastically deformable. They can for example consist of a rubber compound, a steel spring or another suitable elastically deformable spring or damping element.
  • the mounting frame 6 is formed such that it is placed in a modular manner with the shock-absorbing bearing 5 and the tower 3 as a unit on the deck and firmly connected.
  • the mounting frame 6 also allows mounting in another Sequence. Thus, a pre-assembly of the frame 6 on the deck and a subsequent use of the remaining parts in the mounting frame is possible.
  • a radial damper 14 is arranged, which preferably consists of a hollow rubber hose.
  • a sealing skirt 10 protects the bearing elements 5 and partially the mounting frame 6 against splash water.
  • shock-resistant connection options of the ship with the module 18 of the tank howitzer are shock-resistant connection options of the ship with the module 18 of the tank howitzer.
