Royal Navy vs. Joseon Navy

 A Study on the Panokseon, shipbuilding, naval forces are still insufficient. These studies can compare the Navy and other countries should properly first. This kind of comparable significance, but ... I'm a bit disappointing having. Is a bit difficult to conclude that the conclusion that the Joseon, naval forces weak. At that time also rose across Europe, all sorts of levels the level of European navy is impossible to compare in the name of ...Even if only comparable to narrowing the Royal Navy and comparison is not an easy one. In 1592, the Japanese Invasion of Korea, and between the Royal Navy and the Spanish Invincible Armada of 1588 are there in a decisive battle at the time of the first of all, compared with the British fleet. By the time they first 1590s still drill without properly a painter of the Royal Navy vessels. I am Henry the Great (Henri geurase, Góa, Damán, and Díu) flagship Some vessels used to 1,000 and close to supermassive min while the rest of the dedicated shipping line drawn from a warship and ships are not such a large lot. The navy is not drill an artist working like at the time of the Royal Navy was shipbuilding the naval forces. The same standard as Chosun, naval forces in the British navy ship in the future of ratings after make rules not only make a boat. After crew members in moderation or according to the number of naval gunfire with number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 only identified by the equation. As a result, one-size-fits-all is very difficult to compare. Except Henry the Great in Drake's Revenge, flagship of the Royal Navy ship in 1588 or Howard's flagship Ark Royal, Regent's 800 tons or more of the daeeong a trap. The Geobukseon and Panokseon displacement is unclear, but Panokseon 227 in the gross tons, according to the calculation of the Korean science professor at Seoul National University, said Professor gimjaegeun, 28.5 tons the turtle ship. It is clear that Joseon's main warships are smaller than the British's large ships. However, even in the British fleet, the number of large vessels approaching 800 tons is very small. At the time of the battle between the British fleet and the Spanish Invincible Fleet, the Royal Navy had only 13 ships weighing more than 500 tons, including the above-mentioned Henry Great and Akroyal, and the remaining 150 ships were all between 100 and 150 tons. And there were about 20 ships that weighed less than 100 tons. Rather, ships smaller than Panokseon were the main force of the Royal Navy, and these ships were not permanent naval forces, but many of them were suddenly pulled out. On the other hand, in 1593, the Joseon Navy had 250 Panok ships of 227 tons. The large British vessels of 800 tons or more mentioned above are also capable of carrying only 20 to 46 cannons in practice, regardless of the maximum number of ships. Considering that the payload of the Panokseon is about 20 to 30 doors and the total blood of the Jwasuyeong Turtle Ship is 36, there is no significant difference in the payload of the ship. It's not easy to judge the strength of the hull, but it's only after the British took complete control of India as a colony. During the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1590, British ships were mainly made of elm trees. The proportion of elm trees is 0.53, whereas the proportion of Korean red pine, the main ingredient of Panokseon, is 0.53 to 0.73. The weakest kind of red pine is similar to the average elm tree. It is difficult to make a final conclusion on hardness only by the specific gravity without the flexural strength value, but if the specific gravity is this much, the basic hardness will be advantageous for Korean red pine. The thickness of the outer plates of various ships during the Joseon Dynasty is 4 to 7 inches from the original. This is about 12-18cm. This thickness is thicker than that of modern wooden ships, and among the three Eastern kingdoms, Korean traditional ships make the outer plates of ships the thickest. It's one of the advantages of Panokseon. There is no direct data on the thickness of British sailboats in the 1590s, but with the exception of 13 large vessels with displacement of 500 to 1,000 tons, the rest of the British ships are likely to be thinner than Joseon Panokseon. Moreover, given that the proportion of red pine itself is higher than that of elm trees, at least British ships must have thicker outer plates than Joseon ships to have similar strength. If the British ships are structurally advantageous for ocean navigation because they are sailing ships, the Panok ship, a ship of the Joseon Navy, has many advantages for coastal navigation. While the Royal Navy has a inherent limitation in using monotonous tactics centered on Danjongjin, the Joseon Navy can use various modified tactics using the small turning radius of the Panokseon. In particular, if you fought in waters with severe tidal differences along the coast of Joseon, the Joseon Navy will not be at a unilateral disadvantage. It's not easy to tell the difference between the two. At the time of the battle with the Spanish fleet, Calverin was the most loaded cannon in the entire British fleet at the time, with 1,530 guns, 344 Demi-Calverin, 55 Canon-Perrier, and 43 guns. In total, the British fleet has about 2,000 guns. In the case of the Joseon army, there were about 10 to 30 ships on the Panokseon. In 1593, the year after the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1593, when the Joseon navy boasted the strongest, there were 250 Panokseon ships of the three provinces of Gyeongsang, Jeolla, and Chungcheong. Excluding miscellaneous ships such as post-ship and narrow-line, the Panokseon alone produces a huge payload of 250 ships x 20 doors = 5,000 doors. In the case of the projectile, Canon's shell, the largest diameter in the Royal Navy, was 68 pounds (51.408 kilometers). On the other hand, Daejanggunjeon, the largest projectile of Joseon, is 56 geun, which is not less powerful than the cannonball of the large-caliber canon. The number is 18 pounds (13.6 pounds) of shells from the flagship British city of Calverin. In the case of the Joseon Navy, like the British Navy, the main focus was the rather small-sized Hwangja Führer, and it was equipped with many toys and bulanggi systems. The weight of the Hwangja-gun projectile, Piryeongjeon, remains, but the Hwangja-gun is 40mm in diameter and never loses to Calverin. The monolith (stone bullet) fired from Joseon's toys is about 11 to 30 geun. Calverin has a maximum range of 2,000 meters and a maximum range of 300 meters, and the maximum and maximum range of Canon is 1,500 meters and 250 meters. In the case of Hwang Ja-chong, regardless of the maximum range record, the actual test result of the close/hail was about 1,600 meters when the iron ring was fired. Considering that the actual results of the experiment are shorter than the record at the time, there is a high possibility that the range will be longer. It doesn't make a big difference at the intersection. The projectile at that time was a simple, explosive shell-Solid Projectile.  If the European Navy used a chain shell-like Expanding Projectile, which is not in the Joseon Navy, the Joseon Navy had a series of Genjangjeon, a super-arrow projectile that is not in Europe, so the ship is not inferior to the projectile.   At that time in Europe, the transition from crude assembly to battlefield casting was complete, and the technology of casting was already completed in the East. During the Japanese Invasion of Korea in 1592, Europe was ahead of Joseon in the technology of Hujangpo, but overall, the technology and performance of the warship were not unilaterally ahead of the East. One crucial difference is that the Korean navy failed to innovate qualitatively during and after the Japanese Invasion of Korea, while the technological revolution that began in the 15th century continued to explode in Europe, at least in the early 17th century, in the early 1600s. While Joseon was in place, the European Navy, led by Britain, was in the midst of a qualitative revolution.  If the Joseon navy fought a naval battle along the coast in the 1590s, it was clear that it had such a powerful force that it was hard to distinguish between the British navy and the British navy at the same time. But in just a few decades, the Royal Navy is able to overwhelm the Joseon Navy. And the Royal Navy is not just a European powerhouse, it's the basis for building a world empire. The Royal Navy had a virtuous cycle of investing heavily in foreign trade that made Britain rich, but the Joseon Navy was a defensive force to defend pirates, so despite the huge investment that destroyed the country's economy, it did not have much direct economic benefit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is from Shin Jaeho, an expert in this field.
