The Taiwan Navy face of Kidd-class treasure

Southeast Network on August 21, according to Taiwan media reports, the Navy’s largest warships in Taiwan Kidd-level simulator for training computer damage found that computer repair for mainland production. For repair will be sent to the mainland. Had deliberately dragged under the Taiwan military’s embarrassment over the warranty period before maintenance related simulation training all suspended during this period.

It is reported that Taiwan’s navy in 2008 to buy the Kidd-class destroyers, and huge amounts of money purchasing U.S. Navy specifically designed to shore-based simulator for training personnel. However, the recent simulator damage to the equipment, The Taiwan military requirements of the United States factory to provide maintenance services. However, the U.S. plant response to damage to the computer production for the Chinese mainland, such as free maintenance must be sent back to China. Taiwan’s military returned to the mainland may “leak” to the island of Taiwan electronics manufacturers to ask for help, however, the manufacturers said the computer is still under warranty period not want to take the risk of destruction warranty regulations unboxing repair. The matter of Taiwan’s military is very embarrassing, and finally decided to stop training, and other island to spend money to send Guoliaobaoxiuji manufacturers for repair. During this period, this expensive emulator practically equal been abandoned.

Taiwan military training close to Japanese waters caused the event this year, training is limited. The accident at the time the Kidd-class destroyers. The class ship is in addition to the Aegis-class guided missile destroyer the most advanced air defense destroyer, and the displacement of up to 8,000 tons, after only 2000 tons frigate navy as Space Battleship.

now actual training and simulation training due to the influence of political factors on the island completely disrupted, ship combat effectiveness of the actual formation of the more remote time.

background: Kidd-class destroyers Kidd-class destroyers was originally built by the U.S. Navy for 伊朗巴列维 dynasty destroyer design combined air defense cruiser’s air defense radar and weapons systems and anti-submarine destroyer ship anti-submarine sonar and rocket-propelled torpedo weapons. In addition to the Arleigh Burke-class “and” Ticonderoga class Aegis destroyers in the U.S. Navy is the most powerful air defense ships. Transferred to Taiwan in 2005, the U.S. Navy the four class ship, to deal with the the mainland purchases to Russia “modern” class missile destroyer. In order to avoid stimulating the mainland, the United States canceled the plans for the ship to increase the “Tomahawk” missiles. Since then, however, the class ships is not rebuilt, and problematic due to Taiwan’s navy is too sophisticated, has been in practical use in. Even mistakenly close to Japanese territorial waters 12 hours unable to determine their actual position in training earlier this year. The mainland equipped with advanced air defense missile and phased array radar of large-scale air defense destroyers and aircraft carriers in service and sea trial, Kidd-class status in Taiwan Navy more rise, but still can not change the four have been in service for decades, kinds of equipment devices has lagged behind the actual state of the world’s advanced level in more than a decade old ship. Than the more advanced class ships Spruance and Ticonderoga-class have gradually retired, or even become the target ship.
