Mk-57 PVLS

Mark 57 Peripheral Vertical Launching System
Mk 57 VLS (Vertikal Launch System)
Vertical odpaľovacie zariadenie Mk 57 VLS is that stem from vertikálneho odpaľovacieho zaraadenia the Mk 41 VLS. Development zariadenia provide a firm Raytheon on the basis of požiadaviek in the development of torpédoborcov triedy Zumwalt. Odpaľovacie zariadenie is spätne kompatibilne with odpaľovacím zariadením Mk 41, what allows you in the Mk 57 must use all the missiles and to them patriace containers intended for pre Mk 41 without another adjustment. Vzhľadom to konštrukčným alteration in the system of conscription štartovacích plynov (prepracovanie system into a U-shape, where the gases obtekajú shaft of the oboch sides, on the rozdiel from Mk 41, where gases prúdili to act centrálnej shaft between bunkami) but it is possible must use aj must use the new missiles, ktorých launch ťah is up to 45% väčší ako bolo allowed, Mk 41, what allows to considerably bump the range, or užitočné zaťaženie rockets.
Changes konštrukcie at the same time umožňujú inštalovať new odpaľovacie zariadenie nielen to centrálnej osi vessel, but aj on its edges, what allows inštalovať tieto zariadenia aj on menšie plavidlá. This had contributed nielen change základnej cells that have nie is consisting of 8 bunkami in two radoch, but len 4 bunkami in one line, but aj eliminácia system zaplavenia shaft, which in Mk 41 provide chladenie shaft with the racket in the case of the rocket after ignition štartovacieho engineand left the silo. Odstránenie this system greatly znižuje maintenance and staff and at the same time protect front znehodnotením rakiet accidental flooding of the shaft with inštalovanými missiles.

Production úvodnej series odpaľovacích zariadení Mk 57 VLS was closed in decembri 2014.

Basic technical information:
The number of odpaľovacích zariadení in základnom module: 4
The width of the module: 2210 mm (7.25 ft)
Dĺžka module: 4330 mm (14.2 ft)
The height of the module: 7930 mm (26 ft)
Hmotnosť module: 15240 kg (33600 lb)
Max. dimension container with a missile (d x w x h): 710 x 710 x 7180 mm (28 x 28 x 283 ft)
Max. hmotnosť container with the rocket: 4091 kg (9020 lb)


Under manufacturers sa odpaľovacie zariadenie Mk 57 characterized by maximálnou flexibilnosťou and adaptability, to čomu prispieva nielen spätná compatibility with muníciou specified pre Mk 41, but aj konštrukčné changes in the system of conscription spalín, which umožňujú použitie výkonnejších rakiet in budúcnosti. With konštrukčnými changes distressing súvisí aj zníženie the necessary extent of maintenance, what has priamy influence on the decline of the necessary personnel for the operation of prescribed zariadení.
Oddelenie odpaľovacieho zariadenia and own weapons system allows you to jednoduchšie upgrade weapons systémov in budúcnosti.
Itself odpaľovacie zariadenie is but universally, it means that it is possible to ochre plavidiel inštalovať aj on stacionárnych / plávajúcich platforms, but aj on the pevnine (eg. systems pobrežnej protection systems air defense), what extends the total number of weapons systémov that him don't mind me využívať. Otvorená. allows relatívne time odpaľovacie zariadenie prispôsobiť new podmienkam použitia in budúcnosti, what znižuje the total cost of the development of new weapons systémov.

Itself odpaľovacie zariadenie sa except their own buniek is from niekoľkých another prvkov. Basic prvkom pre right funkčnosť is the so-called Canister Electronic Unit (CEU) - what is actually the liaison protozoan between strelou umiestnenou in kontajneri and odpaľovacím zariadením connected to the palubný combat system. In the case of použitia new kompatibilne munície sa changes vykonávajú len at the level of CEU, what znižuje nákaldy on zavedenie guns. Other prvkom, who secures prevádzku odpaľovacieho zariadenia is the so-called Module Controller Unit (MCU). Dad riadiaca unit monitors the state of itself odpaľovacieho zariadenia and in's stored rakiet (prostredníctvom module CEU) in favor of palubného the combat system, what secures priebežnú informáciu about bojaschopnosti, respectively. nebojaschopnosti system. Ďalšou unit is a Power Distribution Unit (PDU) that secures electrical napájanie odpaľovacieho zariadenia and his komponentov (including charged rakiet) of palubného napájacieho system of the vessel. Poslednou riadiacou jendotkou is the Hatch Control Assembly (HCA), pozostávajúca of vlastnej riadiacej units (Hatch Control Unit HCU) and the control prvkov (Hatch Drive Unit - HDU) zabezpečujúcich aktiváciu respective krytiek kryjúcich shaft and prvkov regulujúcich wicking spalín during predštartovej preparation and samotnéhop odpálenia rockets.

Demonstration (model) the operation of the new system of conscription spalín (in form U), ktorý odvádza flue gas into separate of the sea kanálov on the oboch sides of the cells odpaľovacieho zariadenia Mk 57. In predchodcu Mk 41 sa exhaust odvádzali into one channel between the two shafts odpaľovacieho zariadenia, what limited the performance of the štartovacieho engineand.
