| Source measurement | The Adhafer -class corvette is a type of stealth corvette belonging to the Algerian Navy . They are built in China by China State Shipbuilding Corporation CSSC in its Hudong-Zhonghua shipyard in Shanghai. The ship is 120 metres (393 ft 8 in) long and 14.4 metres (47 ft 3 in) wide and has a standard displacement of 2,880 tons. Three Adhafer -class ships were commissioned, with an option for three others of the same type. The first unit was launched on 15 August 2014 and commissioned in November 2015. The second and third were both commissioned in 2016.[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Lead; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The displacement of the Adhafer -class corvette is about 2,880 tons standard and 3,000 tons full load. The propulsion system consists of four MTU diesel engines.[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The ship features a "low point" design and combines this with radar absorbing paint to reduce radar signature. In a departure from existing designs, there is no funnel stack . Instead, the diesels exhaust near the waterline to minimise infrared signatures . Top speed is expected to be around 30 knots (56 km/h; 35 mph). The hull has two sets of fin stabilisers as well as bilge keels .[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Design; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The ships are equipped with an Italian 76 mm NG-16-1 naval cannon as their main gun, inside a turret with a reduced radar cross-section design. They may engage surface targets as well as aircraft.[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Design / Armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The Adhafer class carries HQ-7 naval short-range air defence missiles in eight-cell FM90 launcher. The missile's operating altitude is 15~6,000 m and a range of 700 m to 15 km, it offers combined guidance by command and electro-optical tracking.[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Design / Armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The ship also carries C-802A anti-ship missiles in two quad launchers, which can target ships within the range of 280 km, and two triple 324 mm torpedo launchers. Two seven-barrel 30 mm Type 730 CIWS , both mounted atop the hangar, provide close-in defence. Each gun has a maximum rate of fire of 4,600~5,800 rounds/min.[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Design / Armament; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage The ships are equipped with Smart-S Mk2 medium to long-range air and surface surveillance 3D multibeam PESA radar designed by Thales Nederland , with a maximum range of 250 km. Two navigation radars - an I-band (X-band) set and an E/F-band (S-band) set - that are thought to be Kelvin Hughes SharpEye radars. In addition of Type 364 targeting and secondary air search radar. One Type 345 fire-control radar system used to guide the FM90N missiles. Two Type 347 fire-control radars control the Type 730 CIWS . They are also equipped with a hull-mounted sonar of Chinese origin.[source]Adhafer-class corvette · Design / Sensors; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage | — |
