Chapter 338: The aircraft carrier has 130,000 tons of nuclear power, and the navy is about to compete
Turning around, Su Dingping saw the status of the Varyag aircraft carrier appearing on the virtual panel.
“The Varyag aircraft carrier can be upgraded!”
“The complete version of aircraft carrier close defense weapon system technology (analysis progress 100%), the complete version of active phased array radar technology (analysis Progress 100%), complete version of aircraft carrier power system (analysis progress 100%), aircraft carrier power system (analysis progress 100%), carrier-based aircraft arresting system (analysis progress 100%)..."
He found these These are all core technical breakthroughs that have been completed before, and the relevant information has been handed over to Cheng Yiqiang and the others for further research.
With the breakthrough in the core technology of the aircraft carrier, it seems that the analysis progress of the core technology of the 10,000-ton large drive has improved, which gave him an unexpected gain.
In this way, the previous three months cannot be regarded as wasted.
If you think about it carefully, it is actually easy to discover the underlying truth. Many military technologies seem to be very advanced, but in fact, the underlying technical logic is the same.
It can be said that everything can be changed by analogy!
Soon, he also discovered an ‘upgradeable’ button on the upper right side of the Varyag aircraft carrier’s virtual panel.
I don’t know what kind of effect will appear after pressing it.
In his plan, the research and development of the Longxia tribe’s own domestic aircraft carrier must be done after the 10,000-ton cruise ship. After all, you can’t eat a big fat man in one bite, and the road must be walked step by step. .
With anticipation, Su Dingping decisively pressed the upgrade button. He wanted to see what kind of super aircraft carrier the military industrial illustrated book would analyze next.
Should we go to nuclear power in one step, or do we need to build at least two batches of conventionally powered aircraft carriers as in the previous life to make a transition.
“Ding, upgrade successful.”
As the computer synthesized prompt sounded, Su Dingping immediately looked at the virtual panel and found that it had been fully updated, and the 005 aircraft carrier's illustrated book had been lit up.
"The third generation nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, 130,000 tons of displacement!"
"Holy shit!"
"Is it really a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier?"
"130,000 tons!"
"Oh my God, the largest aircraft carrier of the Eagle Tribe on Blue Star in the previous life was only a Ford-class aircraft carrier with a full row of 110,000 tons, but now it has jumped to 130,000 tons in one step. It is really a super aircraft carrier."
Once such an aircraft carrier is launched, it will be Blue Star’s strongest aircraft carrier, no doubt!
When he saw the words "nuclear powered aircraft carrier", even though he had experienced strong winds and waves, Su Dingping still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and even his breathing became rapid.
Nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, even before his rebirth, the Longxia tribe never had it. 004 nuclear power is the dream that has been pursued!
After generations of hard work, nuclear-powered aircraft carriers have still not been realized due to technical limitations.
I never thought that he would realize it in this life.
And it was 130,000 tons at the beginning.
I came directly to the 005 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. I couldn’t be happier.
The huge tonnage that exploded like this really opened Su Dingping’s eyes.
The Longxia tribe has nuclear submarines, but the power in the nuclear submarines cannot be used on aircraft carriers. Otherwise, it will become a small horse-drawn cart that cannot run. In the end, it will end up like France. aircraft carrier.
But once a technological breakthrough is achieved for the 13-ton aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier will have an almost unlimited range, at least during its 50-year lifespan, without having to replace any power fuel.
In this way, a lot of fuel costs can be saved.
Relatively speaking, the cost-effectiveness of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers is still very high, which is the main reason why all countries on Blue Star are pursuing nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
The Eagle Tribe even plans to retire all Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carriers and replace them with nuclear-powered aircraft carriers to ensure that it has the largest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleet on Blue Star.
You know, if a conventional aircraft carrier is dispatched, the fuel cost alone will cost tens of millions, which is very scary.
Of course, if nuclear power is used, the power system will be greatly improved, which will be of great help to the efficient operation of the aircraft carrier.
In addition, nuclear power generation is also huge, which can improve the operating efficiency of the aircraft carrier's comprehensive power system, thereby providing sufficient power for the aircraft carrier's electromagnetic catapult, as well as laser weapons and kinetic energy weapons to be launched on the ship. ensure.
Relatively speaking, Su Dingping is more inclined to build nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
After calming down, he quickly looked towards the 005 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier attribute panel.
“Full version of multifunctional terahertz radar technology (analysis progress 18%, analysis time 823 days), high-performance electromagnetic ejection system technology complete version (analysis progress 11%, analysis time 1088 days).”
"The complete version of ultra-high power laser weapon technology (analysis progress 5%, analysis time 3188 days), the complete version of active phased array fire control radar technology (analysis progress 22%, analysis time 666 days)."
< br>"The complete version of the aircraft carrier's pressurized water nuclear reactor' nuclear power system (analysis progress 4%, analysis time 4285 days), anti-torpedo hydroacoustic countermeasures system technology complete version (analysis progress 44%, analysis time 338 days), shipboard Complete version of medium and short-range air defense missile system technology (analysis progress 52%, analysis time 342 days..."
After carefully studying the relevant analysis projects, Su Dingping actually discovered a brand-new radar technology.
>
Terahertz radar is a radar technology that is one generation more advanced than active phased array radar.
It has a wider field of view, better search capabilities, and good penetration. The ability of smoke and dust can be used to detect enemy concealed weapons, camouflaged ambush armed personnel and military equipment in smoke and dust, and can work around the clock
Compared with ordinary microwave and millimeter wave radars, terahertz radar has shorter wavelength and wider bandwidth, and has the advantages of strong information transmission capability, high detection accuracy and high angular resolution.
It also has natural anti-stealth properties.
Since the terahertz frequency band has good transmittance to microwave absorbing materials, it is conducive to the detection of stealth targets, and the broadband terahertz radar wave can produce a small resonance surface on flat and thin edges, causing reflection The wave is enhanced and has good anti-stealth performance.
In addition, terahertz waves can propagate in plasma and can effectively combat plasma invisibility. Whether it is based on shape stealth, paint stealth, or even plasma stealth, terahertz radar can make it appear in its original shape.
In this way, even if the Eagle Tribe or other tribes in the West develop plasma stealth fighters, this radar can still effectively capture them and guide anti-aircraft missiles to attack.
Of course, this 130,000-ton super aircraft carrier will definitely not only be equipped with such a radar.
He remembered clearly that in the previous life, the radar array on the 003 aircraft carrier exceeded more than thirty, just to give the aircraft carrier super situational awareness.
005 is an upgraded version of 003, which is naturally more advanced. Whether it is battlefield situational awareness, command, electronic countermeasures and other functions, it will be several levels higher.
In addition, there are electromagnetic ejection systems, electromagnetic interception systems, laser weapons...
The analysis time of each advanced weapon made Su Dingping dumbfounded.
Especially for the 'pressurized water nuclear reactor' nuclear power system, the analysis progress is only 4%, and the analysis time will take 4285 days, which is too long.
Even if it lasted a long time, I could still see his mouth watering.
“Damn it, the stuff is good, but it still takes such a long time to analyze.” “It’s so tempting.”
Su Dingping He sighed helplessly.
However, he also saw the unique advantages of the 'pressurized water nuclear reactor' nuclear power system, which can be adapted to warships of different tonnages according to the power of the reactor.
But there is also a limitation. The tonnage of the battleship must be at least 10,000 tons. Otherwise, it will not be able to support the output of such a huge power. If the ship is small, the power will be wasted, directly turning the battleship into a missile speedboat.
When adapted to a nuclear-powered submarine, the tonnage of the submarine will inevitably exceed 10,000 tons, and its comprehensive combat power will naturally far exceed the current nuclear-powered submarine, becoming a new generation of super-powerful submarine, thus completely Get rid of the problem of loud noise and low power.
Su Dingping remembered clearly that the Eagle Tribe had always belittled the Longxia Tribe’s submarine for being noisy, saying that as long as the Longxia nuclear-powered submarine was launched in the port, the Eagle Tribe could listen across the Pacific Ocean. arrive.
Although it is a bit exaggerated, it just shows that the Eagle Tribe has mastered the sound characteristics of the Longxia nuclear submarine, which is extremely dangerous for nuclear submarines.
But if it is equipped with this pressurized water reactor nuclear power system, the meaning will be completely different.
You can reduce the use of muffler equipment without considering weight reduction. This will greatly improve the stealth performance of the submarine. Even if it appears on the doorstep of the Eagle Tribe, they may not know it.
If the analysis of this power system is completed, it will become possible for the aircraft carrier formation to be fully nuclear-powered.
In the future, the interests of the Longxia tribe will spread all over the world. Naturally, it is necessary for the Longxia Navy aircraft carrier fleet to have the ability to fight in all areas of the Blue Star. This goal can be achieved if all warships in the aircraft carrier battle group are nuclear powered.
At that time, the aircraft carrier wet nurse will only need to bring all kinds of food, fuel, and ammunition supplies. She will also need to carry a large amount of power and fuel, which will greatly reduce the pressure on logistics support.
Just thinking about it makes me extremely excited.
After all, the Eagle Tribe in the previous life did not achieve the full nuclear power of the aircraft carrier battle group.
However, this also brought about a problem. Su Dingping discovered that some of the core technologies equipped on the 005 aircraft carrier far exceeded what the manufacturing equipment of this era could bear.
Therefore, in the past few years of analysis, he still needs to continuously upgrade the construction equipment and some machine tools.
This also means that when the follow-up goal of 10,000-ton large-scale drive is achieved and the mass production stage is entered, in order to build a new generation of aircraft carriers, it will be necessary to improve the high-precision equipment in the integrated military factory. The state-of-the-art production equipment undergoes a secondary upgrade.
In comparison, that is still very far away, after all, it is still a few years away.
At the same time, it also means that the upgrade cost required will be even larger, far from the current scale.
Right now, the navy seems to have a lot of money and money, but in fact, it doesn't have enough money at all.
“It seems that we need to work harder.”
“Otherwise, it will not be possible with aircraft carrier technology alone, and it will still be a big problem.”
Su Dingping let out a long sigh and was filled with endless emotion.
For him, the development of the navy still needs to rely on the country's economic prosperity and the country's further strength as a guarantee.
Even so, it was enough to make him excited for a while.
"If you have the opportunity, board the Eagle Tribe's aircraft carrier and visit it. I wonder how much the analysis progress of the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier will be improved?"
This is just an idea, Eagle Tribe It is impossible to open the aircraft carrier to Longxia people for visit, especially the core cabin.
In the eyes of the Eagle Tribe, the Longxia Tribe is a ferocious being who will get pregnant at a glance.
But this does not mean that one cannot be captured and brought back in the future.
Of course, if Xu Dongguo, Liu Huaming and others knew about this idea, they would be so shocked that their jaws would almost drop to the ground.
“Once we have a 130,000-ton super aircraft carrier, I’m afraid our navy will look down on the Eagle Tribe’s aircraft carrier.”
“I really look forward to that day coming soon. .”
Su Dingping murmured to himself, and a super aircraft carrier fleet had already appeared in his mind.
With the 005 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier as the main body, equipped with 0.55 million-ton large-scale propellers, 052D guided-missile destroyers, plus a number of frigates, and nuclear-powered submarines, a complete aircraft carrier strike group is formed.
They cruise in the Pacific Ocean and are fully capable of fighting against the Eagle Tribe's aircraft carrier battle group.
And this is definitely not as simple as one or two aircraft carrier fleets.
If the Eagle Tribe does not dispatch half of its naval warships, it may not be useful at all. We can only watch the Long Xia fleet cruising there and achieve free navigation in the waters near the Eagle Tribe.
At that time, the Navy has truly achieved the stage strategic goal of "the enemy can go, and I can go too".
As time goes by, the Longxia Navy can have more systematic nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets and possess global combat capabilities.
From now on, Blue Star will transform from one super power with multiple powers to a battle between dragons and tigers. In the end, the Long Xia Navy will achieve the long-term goal of the Star Sea and completely drive back the Eagle Tribe.
At that time, the Longxia tribe will truly rise and return to the top of the world!
If you can imagine freely, Su Dingping also knows very well that it is very difficult to realize it.
"The road ahead is long, and we still need to work hard."
"It can only be said that the future is bright, but the road is tortuous, and we still need to work harder."
Su Dingping will His thoughts were brought back to reality. Looking at those long-term core technology analysis, he knew that it was simply impossible to realize those advanced technologies at the current level.
Now we can only promote naval construction in a down-to-earth manner, step by step. Without strong technical accumulation, it is impossible to completely achieve the purpose of production.
“It seems that it will take a long time to realize the second step of the Navy’s three-step strategy and fight against the Eagle Tribe aircraft carrier fleet.”
"It can't be accomplished overnight."
Su Dingping had many thoughts, but his mind was very fresh.
For them, what they have to do now is to do the things at hand well, first of all, realize the large-scale mass production of 052D, and realize the upgrading of the old ships of the navy.
Of course, some ships that are not very old and have the potential to be upgraded still need to be upgraded and reused.
No matter what time it is, the Long Xia Navy is definitely not an extravagant and wasteful service like the Eagle Tribe Navy.
If a ship is no longer usable or has a new use, it cannot be easily decommissioned.
