GJB 5860-2006
GJB 5860-2006 (Chinese: 国家军用标准 5860-2006; pinyin: Guójiā Jūnyòng Biāozhǔn 5860-2006; lit. 'National Military Standard 5860-2006') is a Chinese military technical standard describing a vertical launching system (VLS) for all types of missiles aboard surface combatants.[1]
Cells have a square crosssection with 850 millimetres (33 in) sides, and may be 9 m (30 ft), 7 m (23 ft), or 3.3 m (11 ft) deep. Each cell carries one missile; the shortest cell may carry four missiles. Hot and cold launches are supported; hot launching uses the concentric canister launch (CCL) approach with exhaust vents within each launch cell.[1]
The first operational implementation is believed to be the VLS aboard the People's Liberation Army Navy's Type 052D destroyer.[2]
Armament compatible with GJB 5860 VLS:
- YJ-18 anti-ship cruise missile
- YJ-21 anti-ship ballistic missile
- HHQ-9 surface-to-air missile
- CJ-10 land-attack cruise missile
- CY-5 and Yu-8 anti-submarine rockets
Ships classes with GJB 5860 VLS:
- Type 052D destroyer
- Type 055 destroyer
