However, the Taiwanese media said on the 14th that the\u201cHai Kun\u201d has a series of experiences from launching to sea trials, proving that it is likely to have more shortcomings, taiwan&#8217;s Navy may be in the follow-up to the release of home-made submarine program worse news, in advance to the outside world\u201cTo prepare.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to the information released by the Taiwan Navy, the sea trial procedure of\u201cHai Kun\u201d is divided into three stages: floating test, shallow-water diving and deep-water diving. \u201cSince June 17 this year, the submarine has completed three buoyancy tests and implemented a dynamic combination of power, navigation, communications, ship control, periscope and other systems at sea.\u201d But since the\u201cHaikun\u201d returned from its third sea trial in early July, it has been in dry dock for nearly two months, so far has not gone to sea, the outside world talk about. The Taiwan Navy has said only that\u201cDocking is for detailed adjustments such as watertight inspection of ship structures, performance correction of carrier equipment, and inspection of equipment below the combat system waterline.\u201d At present, the combat system, main hydraulic pressure, submarine charge and drainage, sonar and other systems have been completed, but the main engine and power management system, integrated platform management system has not yet completed the adjustment, these two major projects need to be completed before the sea to conduct submarine tests.<\/p>\n<p>Taiwan&#8217;s\u201cUnited Daily\u201d said on the 14th that in the past, the Taiwanese military had been very secretive even when it released basic information such as submarine sea trials procedures. Now, before Taiwan&#8217;s\u201cMinistry of National Defense\u201d has conducted a business report, the first step was to announce the progress of the homemade submarine. This was obviously not based on the public&#8217;s right to know, but on the discovery that the\u201cHaikun\u201d was a serious problem. If the previous\u201cSecrecy\u201d attitude continued, it was feared that Landslide dam would collapse, so the DPP authorities took early action by \u201cTheir own people\u201d, partly to expose the problem, hoping to \u201cDrain\u201d it to avoid serious damage.<\/p>\n<p>The report said that the Haikun&#8217;s mainframe and power management and integrated platform management systems have not yet been fully calibrated and can not be automatically charged when the mainframe is activated for navigation, \u201cThere are a lot of key messages hidden in the Taiwan Navy press release.\u201d. For example, a submarine can use a diesel engine only when it is afloat or snorkeling; when it is deep underwater, it can only rely on batteries. As for Integrated Platform Management, it allows the crew to remotely operate and monitor the equipment distributed throughout the ship in the cockpit, which is a necessary condition for any modern ship. The report said that since these two systems are the most basic conditions for the operation of submarines, they should never have waited until the sea trial stage to carry out verification. The relevant functions should have been debugged during the\u201cShore test\u201d stage of berthing at the docks earlier, then the sea trial can take place. \u201cThis confirms the rumor that the Hai Kun was only sailing with pure electricity or pure oil. However, the submarine has not been out to sea for three months, and there may be other problems beyond the public&#8217;s knowledge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taiwan&#8217;s\u201cChina Times\u201d revealed that several retired Taiwanese naval submarine academies all believed that the\u201cHai Kun\u201d was quite a big problem, \u201cCramming six main engines into the small space of a submarine adds complexity to operation and maintenance, which is not found anywhere in the world,\u201d the report said, \u201cHai Kun\u201d before the ship may be used when the battery rather than the host, also not common sense. Usually the conventional submarine uses diesel engine when floating, inhale air, exhaust gas, on the one hand to charge the battery, on the other hand can be directly propelled. During this period, the diesel engine will generate a lot of waste heat and water vapor condensate, along with cooling water and exhaust, so the submarine bow or the middle of the hull will emit bubbles and spray. But when the haikun goes to sea, it does not have any of these features, so it is more likely to be propelled by batteries than by a mainframe.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Integrated Platform Management System, Taiwan submarine experts believe that\u201cNot all the equipment will be bought back into a ship, submarine is even more so.\u201d. \u201cSubmarine integration involves the integration of the combat system and the platform system, and there is integration between the two systems. You Can&#8217;t buy equipment and then decide how to put it, but you can decide how to put it together before you buy it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taiwan\u201cLetter Media\u201d website revealed that the\u201cSea Kun\u201d more trouble. For example, the commercial communication system purchased in support of the submarine may be damaged due to great pressure when diving, and can only be placed in the explosion-proof box, while the submarine out to sea to close the explosion-proof box, only the temporary use of radio. But in combat conditions must remain silent, \u201cRadio can not use either.\u201d. In addition, the six-engine submarine is a commercial model and has been criticized as a \u201cScheherazade practice and disaster\u201d, which will not only result in insufficient combat capability, but also complicated operation and maintenance, and the noise could be so loud that\u201cEven the other side of the Atlantic can hear it\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The report also mentioned that the Taiwanese authorities rushed to advance the construction of follow-up submarines, and there is talk of changing the design to two engines. Retired generals said that this will involve the whole ship&#8217;s center of gravity, piping configuration, including the pressure chamber, the overall configuration will be re-designed, equivalent to the construction of a new submarine prototype.
