베트남, 자국 설계 대잠호위함 건조 시작

[위종민]

베트남이 자국에서 설계했다는 대잠호위함 건조를 시작했네요. 무장 체계는 일단 주포와 대잠로켓, 대잠헬기는 러시아제네요. 

베트남, 사상 최대 규모 군함 건조 착수

베트남이 국내 설계한 신형 대잠 프리깃의 건조를 시작했다. 이 함정은 약 3년 뒤 완공되면 베트남 인민해군(VPN)이 운용하는 최대 규모의 수상전투함이 될 예정이다.

8월 10일 다낭에 위치한 송투 코퍼레이션 조선소에서 강재 절단식이 열렸으며, 베트남 국방부와 공산당, 베트남 인민해군 관계자들이 참석했다.

베트남 국영매체는 아직 함명이 정해지지 않은 이 함정에 능동전자주사배열(AESA) 레이더와 방공미사일, 비엣텔 및 관련 방산공장에서 국내 개발한 첨단 대함미사일이 탑재될 것이라고 보도했다. 예를 들어 이 대함미사일은 VCM-01의 함정 탑재형으로 추정된다.

국산 체계 사용이 늘어나고 있음에도 불구하고, 함정 설계에는 여러 러시아식 설계 특징이 여전히 남아 있다. 행사에서 공개된 모형에는 76.2mm AK-176 주포, RBU-6000 계열의 213mm 대잠로켓 발사기 2기, 6셀 수직발사체계 2기, 4연장 대함미사일 발사기 2기, 533mm 2연장 어뢰발사관 2기가 탑재된 모습이 나타났다.

이 프리깃에는 함미 비행갑판과 카모프 Ka-28 대잠전 헬기를 수용할 수 있는 밀폐형 격납고도 마련된다.

이 새로운 함종의 건조는 베트남이 자국 방위산업을 확대하고 러시아산 장비에 대한 의존도를 줄이려는 노력에서 또 하나의 진전을 의미한다.

하노이는 러시아 방산장비를 둘러싼 제재와 국제적 감시가 조달과 유지·운용을 더욱 복잡하게 만들면서 국내 대체품 개발을 점점 더 적극적으로 추진해왔다.

현재 베트남 인민해군의 주력 수상전투함은 러시아가 건조한 게파르트 3.9급 유도미사일 프리깃 4척으로 구성된다. *딘 띠엔 호앙*(함번호 011), *리 타이 또*(012), *쩐 흥 다오*(015), *꽝 쭝*(016)이다. 이 가운데 후자의 두 척만이 전용 대잠전 체계를 탑재하고 있다.

베트남은 또한 킬로급 디젤전기추진 잠수함 6척을 운용하고 있으며, 이와 함께 러시아와 인도, 한국에서 넘겨받은 구형 프리깃 및 코르벳을 혼합 운용하고 있다.

Vietnam has started construction of a new domestically designed anti-submarine frigate that is set to become the Vietnam People’s Navy’s (VPN) largest surface combatant when completed in around three years’ time.

A steel-cutting ceremony was held on 10 August at Song Thu Corporation’s shipyard in Da Nang, attended by representatives from Vietnam’s Ministry of National Defence, Communist Party and VPN.

Vietnamese state media said the unnamed vessel will be equipped with an active electronically scanned array radar, air defence missiles and advanced anti-ship missiles developed domestically by Viettel and associated defence factories. The anti-ship missile, for example, is believed to be a naval variant of the VCM-01.

Despite the growing use of domestic systems, the ship’s design retains several Russian design features. A model displayed at the ceremony showed a 76.2mm AK-176 main gun, two RBU-6000-style 213mm anti-submarine rocket launchers, two six-cell vertical launch systems, two quad anti-ship missile launchers, and two twin 533mm torpedo tubes.

The frigate also features a stern flight deck and enclosed hangar for a Kamov Ka-28 anti-submarine warfare helicopter.

Construction of this new type of vessel marks another step in Vietnamese efforts to expand its indigenous defence industry and to reduce reliance on Russian-origin equipment.

Hanoi has increasingly sought to develop domestic alternatives, as sanctions and international scrutiny surrounding Russian defence equipment have complicated procurement and sustainment.

The VPN’s principal surface combatants currently comprise four Russian-built Gepard 3.9-class guided-missile frigates: Đinh Tiên Hoàng (hull number ‘011’), Lý Thái Tổ (‘012’), Trần Hưng Đạo (‘015’) and Quang Trung (‘016’). Only the latter two vessels are equipped with dedicated anti-submarine warfare systems.

Vietnam also operates six Kilo-class diesel-electric submarines, alongside a mixture of older frigates and corvettes handed down from Russia, India and South Korea.

우리나라도 독자 설계 무기로는 군함이 먼저, 그 다음 장갑 차량, 그 다음 항공기였네요.

아 그러네요. 배 만드는 게 건설업이랑 비슷한 구석이 있다던데 그런 이유 때문일지. 장비나 체계통합은 외주부터 시작할 수가 있으니..
