[@thedubstepaddict3675]

I think a CIWS instead of the 30mm cannon could really improve crew safety

[@Chickenworm9394]

The landing ship would be escorted by escort ships. The bow gun is its last line of defense

[@scottvanbuskirk3653]

They most likely have 50 mounts through out the ship, the newport class T's had 2 3" twin mounts

[@oldfucker68]

A CIWS starts to track targets at about 148 knots. It's a last ditch effort to protect the ship. It's not used for engagement with other ships and small boats.

[@chicagobulls5436]

A bofors 57mm naval gun in the front could be a good offensive shore gun, a CWIS is a must on this ship they can install it in the higher mounts like in the roof of the super structure.

@@justanotherasian4395 But it is what it is

[@capespring]

9 tank, 6 apc, 12 humvee, 4 lcvp, is that possible? how deep is the ship's draft with full load?

[@justanotherasian4395]

Probably still not much. Safe to assume they wanted the lowest draft possible so they used light weight materials. I’m just taking a guess though so correct me if you find the right answer.

[@death_parade]

Draft would be around 3 to 4 meters. Why is that not possible?

[@animistchannel2983]

If you do the displacement calculations on essentially flat-bottom boats like this, you find out that water is... very very heavy... 61 pounds per cubic foot, or a metric ton per cubic meter. Take 100 meters x 15m x 3m (approx average dimensions for this ship below waterline if you squared it up) = 4500 metric tons of total lift/float. The boat only takes up 1700 of that, leaving you (2800 tons!) a lot of room for cargo & cakes. The thing could literally carry another one of itself as cargo. Irregularities in the shape of the bottom and a little rocking with the waves mean you may actually draw another meter or so. It's amazing how much stuff will float in a boat that is still mostly full of air and spreads out sideways. You could put 4 inches of steel armor on that lander and it would only add another meter of draft. If you want to see some really wacky size to draft ratios, look at what catamarans and trimarans can do. There are 42x12-meter water-taxi catamarans that only draw 1.5 meters and can go 40 knots. With a true trimaran, you can practically have the deck space of a small aircraft carrier and you could literally wade out to it from shore. The thing is, you may see stats on aircraft carriers and some other long-running big ships, and they are sucking up like 15 meters of water; but those have long, narrow keels sticking down like fins. Those deepwater hulls are not about carrying more stuff, they are about navigational efficiency, stability in nasty weather, and speed. That carrier has to stay rock-steady and on a tight course in storm waters for the planes to land safely. An LST can afford to rock'n'roll with the waves a bit more -- it will get plenty stable again once it grounds itself up on the beach :)

[@ninobreznik9354]

@@animistchannel2983 Great explanation!

[@jankaas4504]

@@animistchannel2983 the draftsurveys on yachts and multi hull designs arent realy applicable on this ship. Its safe to state that all merchant ships nowadays are flat bottomed as the draft itself is a limiting factor in the ports and shoals it can safely navigate. A boxy mid section is the norm with a little bit of kim for rolling cushioning. Keeping in mind that stability wise the rightingmoment is highly dependent on weight destribution and less on hull and keel form itself. Also in the case of beaching a vessel the stability would be critical with any form of v shaped hull. The mass to volume on the loads this ship will experience is realy low as hmmv's or any vehicle would be almost completly filled with air, the same as accomodations for marines and crew. Also the volume/mass of seawater (atleast the oceans) is 1.025ton/m^3. It would be safe to say the ship would be orientated to saltwater beaches.

Maybe add one Phalanx CIWS on the roof?

[@justanotherasian4395]

Nah. Too op.

[@donkoh5738]

@ Finn -- probably not on the roof, as it likely wasn't designed with the excess space and specs for a full Phalanx class CIWS ? But perhaps one of those 20kw +/- drone zapper lasers could however be installed there ? But you likely could replace the 30mm bow gun with a CIWS sys of some sort. Yes .

[@animistchannel2983]

If you were really doing a landing under likely fire, you'd have air support jets, plus gun coverage from at least OPV's like the Holland class (76mm @ up to 120 shells/minute from 16km out, or sitting just offshore behind you in like 5 meters of water with its 30mm and various 12mm); plus there's the helicopter the lander carries itself and the OPV's chopper, which means even more machine guns and rockets, etc. Also, the crew (or your landing infantry dudes) can get up on the foredeck with their weapons and cover the first stage vehicle landing from the sniper positions set up there. Notice the peek-holes in the armor wall around the perimeter of the 30mm? Of course, as soon as the first tanks roll out to ground from the RORO deck, you have mobile armor support with all their stuff going on for the rest of the parade. They will just squash anything in the vicinity before your infantry dudes even have to walk off the deck. If you're trying to come ashore against too much heat for all that to cover, you need to just back off out to sea and let the carrier group soften up that area until it's bloody ready to land on, sir! A ship like this doesn't just show up out of nowhere and run around by itself. It comes with a pack of big nasty friends and a plan. Of course, in the real world, there won't be another D-day, and what's most likely to come rolling out of there is a UN relief convoy full of water bottles and medical supplies for an earthquake disaster response. Real war among "equal powers" is essentially over. The only people who can really afford to play have too much incentive to not blow up all their riches. Whatever campaigns happen after this will be putting down pirates or taking out a local tinpot dictator who tortures babies. That's why you see so much downsizing to lighter/patrol vessels with equivalent-scaled weapons. For anything big, you use air power.

[@schno.z]

You’d think there would be one with additional Laser systems to fry missles

[@Betterhose]

Other naval vessels by Damen are equipped with the MANTIS by Rheinmetall.

[@JFrazer4303]

Very few users seem to want ships with bow ramps for unimproved landing sites. I've found one class of combined LST/LPD, the old Soviet "Ivan Rogov:" and they didn't build many and didn't replace them and nobody else seems to do it. The Russians haven't built any more LSTs, nor the US. Everybody is going with LHA and a few with well decks aft for watercraft. A very useful class would be something big enough to operate STOVL planes, perhaps with a ski jump, but also for other missions be capable of LST/LPD, as well as trans-shipping freight from container ships as well as tankers. Ballast the rear end down for a wet well deck aft while pumping the front end tanks dry, to beach it. If it's a big ship, the rear end is out far enough that big freighters and tankers can come alongside the aft end.

This ship is very useful for us, an Indonesian country whose country is in the form of an archipelago. The shipping of soldiers, amphibious tanks and combat vehicles to an island become very easy. In addition, tanks and other amphibious vehicles can immediately take an attacking position in taking over an island through the bow door of the ship.

[@Kayaz48]

Great video. Awesome capability. Only suggestion would be a little bit more on deck armament to suppress enemy response to landing

The Damen shipyard ads are quite interesting and informative, but some of us wonder how durable their ships really are. How well do Damen ships hold up to rough seas (e.g. Sea State 8 or higher)? How often must they be docked for overhaul and repainting? Are there new paints and coatings that give ships more life? How protected are ships to modern-day pirates and smugglers from 14.5 mm machine guns and RPGs?
