It has accumulated experience for the U.S. Navy Pioneer-class joint high-speed ship .
The United States has successively leased HSV-X1", TSV-1X, and later HSV-2 from the Australian civilian shipbuilding company INCAT Shipyard. They originally leased 100% civilian ships, but what the U.S. military valued was that its technology met the needs of the U.S. Navy at that time. They needed ships with fast transportation capabilities to match the changes in the naval ship system at that time.

The US Navy developed a series of ships based on this series. Pioneer-class joint high-speed warship JHSV, high speed, "shallow draft", good adaptability to sea conditions, and certain effectiveness The payload can carry a medium-sized helicopter. It is also equipped with simple self-defense weapons.

0The U.S. Navy has high expectations for this type of transport ship, hoping that it can quickly improve the navy's overseas transportation capabilities. , especially its rapid delivery and reinforcement capabilities, shallow draft, which means less restricted sea area. It forms a new naval transport ship system with the San Antonio-class dock transport ship , ocean base ship, etc., and is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Sealift Command .
This angle is very exaggerated
Looking back at the HSV-2 high-speed transport ship itself, It served the U.S. military for several years until the lease expired in 2013, and was withdrawn from the U.S. Navy equipment list. Later, it was returned to INCAT, Australia. After the shipyard, it underwent maintenance and modification, and then was sold to the United Arab Emirates. It is still used as a military transport ship.

The highlight is here, and the final ending is the highlight. It was Husai Armed used Iranian to imitate a type of anti-ship missile from the Far East and destroyed it. This was its hasty life. Speaking of the Houthi armed forces, let’s not talk about anything else. In terms of the results achieved, it is really strange and legendary. Not only did they damage HSV-2, they also subsequently attacked the American Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer . They once sank a United Arab Emirates' Baynouna-class corvette. You must know that the ship was equipped with American-made anti-aircraft missiles. In short, the results are great.
Judging from the wreckage of the HSV-2 high-speed transport ship, it is considered useless, completely useless, and reminds me of the United States a while ago. The Navy ordered the independence-class littoral combat ship to sail at a restricted speed because the ship has Cracks. It seems that aluminum as the main material of ships still has risks. First, there are issues with combustion resistance and strength. The year-round beating force of waves cannot be ignored, especially when sailing at high speeds. In addition, the materials are not cheap. The entire ship is made of aluminum. It is very large, and some aluminum grades have strength, but the machinability is completely different from ordinary extruded 6061 or 6063, let alone 10 series cast aluminum. Wasted
Final ending
The stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade. The reason why the changes in warship style during that period were related to the guiding ideology at that time, and something can be obtained from it, such as pioneers, transport landing ships , ocean base ships and other eras. It is changing, technology is changing, and ships are also changing. All this shows that the U.S. Navy attaches great importance to delivery capabilities. As the ancients said, food and grass go first before the soldiers and horses are used. This principle and importance have not changed yet.
HSV-2 Distinctive Advantages , high speed, shallow draft, inherited from the Pioneer class, not as good-looking as the Pioneer, but it still looks fashionable, even though it has been twenty years, it still looks fashionable - look at the pictures when it still existed [silly laugh] .
