Eagle Sauce: The 055 destroyer was launched into the sea just after the founding of the country?

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, another half a year passed.

Under the bright sunshine, the dock of the Great Wall Shipyard is bustling with activity.

The Dragon State aircraft carrier, tentatively code-named "Kunpeng", is quietly docked in the dock, and its towering island casts a long shadow in the sun.

Workers are carrying out the final outfitting work, and welding sparks are flashing on the deck.

This giant ship with a displacement of 80,000 tons embodies the hard work of the entire Longguo shipbuilding industry.

Fang Yu stood at the edge of the dock, looking at this huge thing, with mixed feelings in his heart.

"Xiao Fang," Li Dingyuan came over and handed him the latest progress report.

"According to the current progress, all outfitting work will be completed in another month."

Fang Yu took the report and scanned the densely packed data.

Two years is neither long nor short.

In this era, it usually only takes about ten months for the Americans to build an Essex-class aircraft carrier, from keel laying to service.

“Our construction speed is indeed a bit slow, but fortunately it is finally completed…”

Li Dingyuan said this with a sense of relief.

Fang Yu shook his head: "No, this speed is already very fast."

"Fast?" Li Dingyuan was puzzled. "But the Eagle people..."

"Director Li, you have to understand," Fang Yu put down the report, "the Eagles are able to build aircraft carriers quickly because they have a complete industrial system and rich experience."

“And what about us?”

He pointed to the workers busy in the dock.

"Two years ago, how many of these comrades had seen an aircraft carrier? How many knew what a carrier-based aircraft was?"

“We started from scratch and figured it out bit by bit.”

Li Dingyuan pondered: "Indeed, it took us half a year just to train welders who could weld the aircraft carrier deck."

"More than that," Fang Yu continued, "look at the design of this aircraft carrier."

"Steam catapults, arresting cable systems, air defense missiles, phased array radars...each one is the most advanced equipment."

"Even the Eagles haven't fully mastered these technologies yet."

In the dock, workers are debugging the newly installed carrier-based aircraft elevator.

This system uses new hydraulic technology and can move fighter jets from the hangar deck to the flight deck in thirty seconds.

"Speaking of which," Li Dingyuan said, looking at the busy figures, "many of our equipment are independently developed. Even the blueprints have to be drawn from scratch."

Fang Yu nodded.

He knew that in the future world, even for the Dragon Country, which had the strongest industrial strength, it would take three to four years to build an aircraft carrier.

Because the complexity of modern aircraft carriers is far beyond the reach of aircraft carriers from the 50s.

The reason why he was able to complete this aircraft carrier within 2 years was because he had control over almost the entire Dragon Country's military manufacturing capabilities.

"Director Li, do you believe it?"

Fang Yu suddenly said, "Our aircraft carrier is, to some extent, more advanced than the Eagle Country's."

"This..." Li Dingyuan was a little bit unbelievable.

"Look at the design of the island," Fang Yu pointed at the angular command tower. "Even the Eagles haven't thought of this shape yet."

"And our integrated electronic system, using all-transistor technology, is at least twenty years more advanced than their vacuum tubes."

Li Dingyuan looked carefully at the huge ship in front of him and suddenly understood something: "So, in the past two years..."

"Yes," Fang Yu smiled, "We are not just building an aircraft carrier, but also establishing a brand new industrial system."

"From the most basic welding process to the most advanced electronic equipment, we have to learn from scratch."

There was a cheer from the dock.

Workers have just completed the commissioning of the carrier-based aircraft elevator, and the first test was completely successful.

"You're right," Li Dingyuan said with emotion. "Looking at these comrades, just two years ago they were still struggling with how to weld armor plates, yet now they can independently complete such a complex system installation..."

Fang Yu looked at the aircraft carrier that was about to be completed, and a sense of pride surged in his heart.

This is not just a warship, but also a symbol of the industrial strength of the entire Dragon Country.

It embodies the hard work of countless workers and carries the dream of a nation.

"In another month," he whispered, "we'll see it sailing across the Pacific..."

……

A month later.

At the dock of the Great Wall Shipyard, the sun shines on the brand new aircraft carrier hull, and the silver-gray metal sparkles in the sun.

The workers stood in a row, each of their faces filled with irrepressible excitement and pride.

“Into the water!”

With an order, the huge aircraft carrier slowly slid into the water.

The sea water was pushed away, and the splashing waves were like a welcome salute.

As senior generals who participated in the sea trial with Fang Yu, Jiang Chaoyanghai and General Chen were shocked by the scene before them as soon as they got off the car.

The ship has a streamlined hull, an angular island, and four steam catapults neatly arranged at the front of the deck.

This is not a warship from the 1950s, it looks like a warship from the future.

"Xiao Fang, this... is this really something we made ourselves?"

After seeing this scene, Jiang Chaoyang's voice trembled a little.

Fang Yu smiled and nodded.

"Of course! Every screw and every inch of steel plate on this aircraft carrier is domestically made!"

"Uncle Jiang, do you want to go up and take a look?"

"Okay, okay! Let's go!"

Hearing Fang Yu's voice, Jiang Chaoyang, who had been itching to do it for a long time, agreed immediately.

He hurried to the deck of the aircraft carrier.

While climbing onto the bridge, Jiang Chaoyang was like a curious child, touching and looking around.

As an old sailor who has dealt with warships for more than 20 years, he has seen many foreign warships, but everything about this aircraft carrier in front of him amazed him.

"What is this?" Jiang Chaoyang pointed to a radar antenna on the island.

"Phase-scanned array radar," Fang Yu explained, "can track two hundred aerial targets simultaneously. This is unique in the world."

General Chen also came over.

"This design is truly amazing. Even the Eagles don't have this kind of technology right now, right?"

When he arrived at the bridge, Jiang Chaoyang was so surprised that he was speechless.

The fully electronic command system, the huge tactical display screen, the advanced communication equipment...everything was beyond his imagination.

"This is the tactical command center,"

Fang Yu pointed to a row of display screens.

"It uses the latest transistor computer, which can automatically calculate interception trajectories and coordinate carrier-based aircraft operations."

Jiang Chaoyang's hand gently stroked the console.

"These devices...were all developed by us?"

"Yes," Fang Yu said with a smile, "From the most basic circuit boards to the most complex programs, our engineers wrote them line by line."

When visiting the hangar deck, Jiang Chaoyang could no longer control his emotions.

Looking at the neatly arranged aircraft carrier elevators, the advanced fire-fighting system, and the spacious hangar space, the old navy man burst into tears.

"Thinking back then..." he choked up and said, "I personally participated in the Battle of the Magic City and watched our Dragon Kingdom's warships being shattered by the Sakura Kingdom. At that time, I swore that one day I would rebuild the Dragon Kingdom's navy. But..."

He wiped away his tears and said, "But I never dreamed that I would see an aircraft carrier like this in my lifetime."

"Xiao Fang, you guys... you guys really bring glory to our country!"
