Abstract:
      Not only the basic situation and development process of shipborne missile launchers at home and abroad are introduced, but also the fixed launcher, rotary launcher, arm launcher, vertical launcher which contained advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. According to the characteristics of hot/cold launch methods, basic performance of four launchers are analyzed in terms of installation methods, ammunition storage capacity, launch boundary, launch efficiency, reaction speed, reliability and safety. Basic principles of incline launch, vertical launch and hot/cold common frame launch are clarified. Due to the advantages of large firing range, high efficiency, fast response, and large amount of ammunition storage on vertical launchers, they become the mainstream of shipborne launching devices. Identically, inclined launch is an effective supplement to vertical launch in terms of short-range large maneuvering time of the missile and improve the terminal interception probability. Shipborne missile launchers are developing towards a vertical and general direction. Modular launch and electromagnetic vertical launch are the development direction of the next generation of shipborne launch.
