“华船1号”是由南海舰队装备部4801工厂设计建造的我国第一艘自航式浮船坞,可为3万吨以下船舶提供进坞维修保障。传统意义上的千船坞和拖带式浮船坞已无法满足现代海战对保障条件的需求。“华船1号”的服役标志着我国海军大型战舰修理开始由岸基定点保障向远海机动保障进行转变,开启了海军大型舰船海上坞修新纪元。 “China Ship No. 1” is the first self-propelled floating dock in China designed and constructed by 4801 Factory of South China Sea Fleet Equipment Department, which can provide dockyard maintenance for ships under 30,000 tons. In the traditional sense, thousands of docks and towed floating docks have not been able to meet the requirements of the modern naval warfare for their security conditions. The service of Huafang No.1 symbolized that the repair of large-scale naval battleships in China started to shift from the protection of shore-based fixed points to the moat protection of distant seas, opening a new era of maritime dock repair for large-scale naval vessels.
