    "Starting from 2015, it is planned to be involved in carrying out military transport and peacekeeping tasks." And what are their peacekeeping tasks? Bring democracy to North Korea? ..

    Korean shipbuilding companies are among the strongest in the world. Samsung has made a tremendous leap in this direction over the past three decades. Modular construction is carried out with extraordinary speed. But they were mainly engaged in civil engineering. The landing ship is a natural step.

      An alternative can only be the abandonment of the fleet as such. But few are willing.

    Wait a minute! Am I missing something in this world? Where is the Dokdo udk / light aircraft carrier built? Like in Busan. Two more will be built there (or have already begun).
    And three amphibious divisions with heavy armored vehicles and a separate DR battalion of marine corps on type junks dissect.
    According to the above characteristics and photos - this is a classic DVDKD. Experience in the construction of such a class of SK is not to occupy - the entire Indonesian series.

    But what do you write in a similar vein? what
    If not our tank / bmp / ​​btr / MRAP - be sure to weave RPG-7.
    If the combat aircraft is not ours, be sure to perform the mantra about the Su-27/30 / PAK-FA / T-50.
    If the combat helicopter is not ours - a flailing with a tambourine about Mi-28 or Ka-52.
    If a battleship - then perform a match for "our unbreakable missiles" - yeah, right now!
    And pictures, pictures more !!!
    Themselves are not yet ... smiling?
    Let calmly penetrate into the information.
    And as practice shows, any ship from anti-ship missiles sinks without comment. What ours will fly to, what ours from that - the effect will be approximately the same. There is an exception - the "tanker war" in the Persian Gulf, when a supertanker received two "Exocets" on board and, having sworn at all the belligerents, pushed itself further.

      You probably didn't live in the USSR, you wouldn't write that. If we were developing technically now as in "stagnation", they would have been before us as before the moon

      when we built ships during the Soviet Union, the Koreans made pleasure boats. the collapse of the union and the antics of the liberals brought it all into decline. but I still think that Russia is capable of making ships for the fleet on its own. It only interferes with the cuts of funds and big kickbacks

    Interesting. And our sold pr.12061 where will they be? I'm not a marine, but IMHO in the dock-cameras they have the place (like LCAC).

      Just arrived recently.

      For what reasons did you agree on such a concept? (They gathered to do a whole series)
      Maybe someone else for sale?

      The first option is for the sake of economy in the construction process ("Dokdo") and operation (compact).
      On this, all the advantages end (IMHO):
      the deck is cluttered (instead of them, it would be better if behind the superstructures a couple of hangars for another pair of helicopters were placed or some additional weapons.)
      On the go and with the excitement of the boat you will not let go.
      Boats can be lowered by crane only to the port side.
      What if the tap sticks?
      The problem with loading on boats: completely dependent on the weather.
      My purely amateurish IMHO.
      Look at this site:
      http://panzercho.egloos.com/10694164
      - I'm not strong in Korean.

      Long --126m
      Width -19m
      max. -23 node speed
      economical move -19 node
      Landing - about 300 people
      tonnage -4.950 tons
      max tonnage - 7140 tons
      The loading and unloading crane can work with 65 tons.

    Well, you may not be news and don't care when Honduras is on fire.
    The transport "shoulder" of the civil merchant fleet from the port of loading Busan to the port of unloading Vladivostok is just over 1,5 days. "Container carriers" go faster - a day.
    Your opinion - what is the "shoulder" of the ships of the Navy of one very difficult state? Do I need to know this or is it in fig? If anything, I live on the very edge of Russia and this is much more interesting to me than MAKS.

    Well, three Marine divisions, with heavy weapons, up to MBT. They must somehow be delivered to the drop point. We decided that the concept of UDC is suitable and amphibious ships are being built, forming a de facto standard with their world's best shipbuilding industry - how to build ships, for a specific task.
