aircraft carrier can be said to be one of the most complex conventional weapons and equipment in human history. The number of people and resources required to use this equipment are incomparable to other weapons. However, the main command of such a complex weapon requires a simple and common neural center, which is the so-called CIC intelligence command center of the aircraft carrier. Recently, the combat command center of the domestically produced aircraft carrier Shandong ship was unveiled, and a new type of electronic sandbox and a new generation of integrated display console can be seen.
From the picture, the combat command center of Liaoning ship is located in the core position of bridge . There are no windows around it, and the space inside itself is not large. This means that this is a streamlined and efficient command system that can quickly make decisions on the acquired information. The small site also requires that the tactical data processing system used can be fully integrated and does not occupy too much data. Obviously, this system of Shandong ship has the above characteristics.
From a distance and in the nearest view, the outermost part is a horizontally-rowed tactical processing system terminal, and there are two rows of the same terminal around it. The tactical information of the aircraft carrier will be processed according to multiple contents such as weapons, air defense, anti-submarine and air management. This set of terminals should be a new generation of domestic tactical display console. You can see that it is not called small, one group is divided into two terminals, and there are 8 terminals available in 4 groups. This shows that the display console has strong integration capabilities and high informationization capabilities. This is actually much stronger than some Western trio screens, and many screens are vertically plugged in. One screen can be processed, so why bother one person to handle three screens? People’s processing capabilities are limited, and too many screens will only reduce efficiency.
. What we see near is an electronic command sand table, which adopts a desktop layout, and is responsible for analyzing and judging the comprehensive information in order to make decisions. And there are four large screens behind them, which can also be used to display more data information. In fact, electronic sand table is not uncommon. Similar devices were first used on ship during World War II . Of course, it was impossible to electronically be used at that time. The main purpose was to use handwriting to describe battlefield changes. Today's electronic sandbox can comprehensively collect data obtained on the tactical processing system of the display console, and use visual methods to combine battlefield perception capabilities to project them together. After all, Shandong ships are not only responsible for commanding ships and aviation, but also performing formation command functions. This is a complex command project of more than 100,000 tons of ships, which tests the processing capabilities of the entire system.
Although the system used by Shandong ships is now very advanced, the research and development of the ship's comprehensive command system in China has gone through a lot of embarrassment. In the early days, the domestic command was open-air. It was not until the 1980s that the ZKJ-3 formation command system was established, which was installed on the 053H2 destroyer, and the later 166 ship was installed with a more advanced ZKJ-4A. However, most ships had not yet installed combat command systems, and were purely manual collection and transmission of information to analyze and judge and command. While developing the formation command system in China, it also borrowed from an original French Trumpson command system introduced on the 052 destroyer. While constantly integrating domestic and Western technologies, it carried out small steps and quickly explored. After the rapid development of domestic electronic information technology, it began to gradually catch up with the Western level.
Overall, the tactical mid-range and formation command systems of domestic aircraft carriers are very advanced, and they are designed for aircraft carriers based on years of research and development of similar devices in China. They also refer to the SSDS of many Western amphibious landing ships, the SENIT-9 battlefield management system used by " Northwest Wind ". Of course, no matter how good the system is, it must be used by people. To achieve the best performance of this system, the soldiers need to persist in daily training to make the aircraft carrier formation command like a hand.
