We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?
Chapter 711: Aircraft Carrier in Place
Dalyan Shipyard, this is Zhang Nan’s second stop in Binhai.
Here, Zhang Nan attaches more importance to it than Luwu Equipment Company.
Because the fighter jets from Luwu Equipment Company are not what Rabbit desires most, but those from Dallion Shipyard are.
Aircraft carriers, the overlords of the sea, have made Dallion, a shipyard that had originally been converted from military to civilian use, once again a treasure of the navy.
Do you dare to say that Dalyan Shipyard is not good enough? Can't win the defense order? The Navy is the first to disagree.
This is an aircraft carrier. The navy has been depressed for many years, and now suddenly tells you that it is no longer a ragtag grouper but a billionaire.
If you talk to him about nonsense at this time, you will be finished if he slaps you.
I'm going to inherit the family fortune and become a billionaire. Do you think this is a metamorphosis?
"Tell me about the situation."
In an office at the Dallion Shipyard, Zhang Nan couldn't wait to ask a man in military uniform.
The man's name is Yang Qi, and he is the factory representative sent to Dalian.
In addition to supervising and understanding the manufacturing of aircraft carriers, there is also coordination to help Dalyan Shipyard solve problems that cannot be solved.
"Those experts built the entire ship in sections, which consist of 21 large modules and tens of thousands of small modules.
Once all modules are completed, the overall assembly will begin.
At the current rate, it will take about 12 to 14 months to launch the ship."
"So slow?" Zhang Nan was a little surprised.
This aircraft carrier, temporarily named Liaoshen, has been under construction for more than a year. Given the Russians' level, the main structure should be completed in about a year and a half as long as there is sufficient funding.
Of course, this refers to the hull itself, not including weapons and other equipment.
After all, this aircraft carrier has a template, and it was designed based on the polar bear Kuznetsov aircraft carrier. However, the Liaoshen aircraft carrier is larger than Russia's Kuznetsov aircraft carrier.
The Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is 284 meters long and 72.3 meters wide, with a standard displacement of 55000 tons and a full load displacement of 67500 tons.
The Liaoshen currently under construction is 290 meters long, 73.8 meters wide, with a standard displacement of 56500 tons and a full load displacement of 68000 tons.
In addition to these, there are many other changes to the Liaoshen.
For example, it is not designed with two flight decks, and it also abandons the ski-jump deck.
Because the ski-jump takeoff has a fatal flaw, which is that it cannot take off against the wind or in bad weather.
In terms of weapon configuration, the Liaoshen aircraft carrier is closer to the United States' aircraft carrier, unlike the Kuznetsov, which is equipped with a large amount of firepower.
No aircraft carrier carries out a mission alone; they all work together as a formation.
The defense mission does not require the aircraft carrier itself, but is instead undertaken by the destroyers in the aircraft carrier formation and the carrier-based aircraft on the aircraft carrier.
But the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is different. It is equipped with 25 ammunition magazines, which increases the load capacity to a certain extent.
Therefore, the displacement of Liaoshen is similar to that of Kuznetsov, but the deck area is larger than that of the other.
There is also the power system. Like the Kuznetsov, the Liaoshen also uses four GTZA-674 gear-driven steam turbines and eight KVG-4 boilers purchased from Ermao, reaching 20 horsepower.
The difference is that the Kuznetsov's design speed limit is 30 knots, but its actual speed is only 29 knots.
The design limit of Liaoshen's speed is 32 knots, and it is expected to reach this speed.
As for the most important carrier-based aircraft, like the Kuznetsov, it can carry up to 42-52 aircraft, depending on how they are matched.
However, for now, the X-01 is definitely the main force. As for helicopters, if you want to produce them domestically, you will probably have to wait for Luwu to develop them.
It’s not that there are no domestic products, but that they are not advanced enough.
"The reason why it is so slow is related to the number of workers. Our workers have no experience in building aircraft carriers, and those expert workers who come from Ermao are obviously short of manpower."
"What did Mr. Luo say?"
These people are all Ermao's shipyard workers. Although they work in the Dallion Shipyard, they are not from here.
If you want to add more workers, it’s actually just a matter of one word from Luo Nianzhong.
There are some things that others don’t know, but Zhang Nan knows a little about them. Ermao is now like a back garden to the Luo family.
Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is certain that the Luo family's influence in Ermao is unmatched by any other country or family.
"I can't get in touch with him, but Director Shen told me that his feedback was rejected."
Adding staff? Not right now.
For Luo Nianzhong, the current Liaoshen is just a transitional product both in terms of technology and tonnage.
Why not just launch the Varyag? How can the Russians launch the Varyag when they haven't even built it themselves?
Now that we have carrier-based aircraft, the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is the most cost-effective to build.
As for Ermao's shipyard workers, they also have their own tasks, which is to build the Varyag at the Black Sea Shipyard first.
It must be acknowledged that it is impossible for a rabbit to compete with the United States in a short period of time. It will take at least 20 years for the two countries to reach a point of equal strength.
But it’s different if we bring in Da Mao. Do we think we’re afraid of you when two against one?
The little brother of the United States? Europe may follow closely in the footsteps of the United States, but if a superpower were to fall, the families behind Europe would be more pleased than anyone else.
The reason why they are so afraid of the United States is that they are being coerced. The United States has too many cards in its hand to force Europe to bow its head. Another reason is that they are afraid that the Russians will launch a revolution to expand eastward, and no one can resist without the protection of the United States.
If the United States is too busy to take care of itself, those trump cards will no longer be counted as trump cards.
If someone could restrain Da Mao, there would be no problem.
On this point, Luo Nianzhong believes that Europeans see it clearly.
The most secure way is to contain the United States, the East, and Europe. Later, a certain big country did the same, and the world pattern also developed in this way.
"Yeah, I get it."
After listening to Yang Qi's extensive report, Zhang Nan understood.
There are no thousand-year-old empires, only thousand-year-old families. This iron rule applies everywhere in the world.
It is already a huge favor for the Luo family to let the Dallion Shipyard build an aircraft carrier for the country. The Luo family is under a lot of pressure in the United States.
For the country, this means completing the construction from zero to one. Although this aircraft carrier cannot be compared with that of the United States, its strategic value is immeasurable.
"I don't need to say much about how much importance the higher-ups attach to this matter. Your task is to cooperate to the best of your ability to build our first aircraft carrier."
"Yes." Yang Qi stood at attention and saluted.
"By the way, are those Russians trying to be wary of us?"
These are what Zhang Nan cares about most. Outsiders are always outsiders, and it is better to have control over it yourself.
Although many parts are still far behind the domestic level, it doesn’t matter.
Technology can develop, and he hopes that when the technological capabilities meet the standards, the country will be able to mass-produce aircraft carriers at any time.
"That's not the case. The Russians were completely defenseless and took the initiative to offer suggestions to improve the skills of our workers."
"That's good." Zhang Nan breathed a sigh of relief.
To prevent technology leakage, is it the same as before, or is it that foreigners inspect and prohibit others from watching?
Luo Nianzhong did not have this idea, because he knew that the country would become a military power sooner or later.
All he had to do was add some fuel to the fire and speed things up.
I am a Chinese. If the Dallion Paper Mill can continue to build various new ships, it will be enough for the Luo family's influence.
A day later, Zhang Nan left Binhai with full of joy.
At the same time, Luwu Equipment Company also received the first large order in its history. The first batch of 30 X-01m will be delivered within a year, and the first batch of payments will be deposited into the account soon.
Luo Nianzhong was very happy, the superiors were also very happy, and the troops were very excited.
Local governments are even more concerned about street lights at this time, because this will drive huge economic circulation.
