Chapter 275 Daxia is horrified, what on earth is this organization going to do? Prepare to copy ‘God of the North Wind!
(modified)
now.
On the Port of Los Angeles.
Compared with the extremely crowded crowd in the distance, everyone is rushing to take a photo with the USS Eisenhower aircraft carrier.
The 'Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine' in front of us seemed a little cold, and could even be said to be 'isolated'.
Tourists in twos and threes passed by it, took a few photos and hurried to the next destination, as if they didn't take it seriously at all.
"Is the Ohio class so unpopular?" Lu Ze frowned and asked Lucy next to him in surprise.
This thing is the most powerful strategic nuclear submarine in active service in the world.
It is also the "trinity" nuclear deterrence capability that a major power must possess, including land-based intercontinental missiles, submarine-launched ballistic missiles, and strategic bombers, the three land, sea and air nuclear attack means.
As a result, there were not even two tourists taking a group photo?
"It should be because it doesn't have a large ship like an aircraft carrier. Isn't it so shocking?"
Lucy tilted her head and guessed based on her inner feelings.
If Lu Ze hadn't told her about this 'Ohio-class' strategic nuclear submarine, she might have just thought it was an ordinary large cylindrical 'submarine' and wouldn't have much interest in visiting it.
Hearing this, Lu Ze shrugged helplessly: "It seems so. The appearance of these submarines is indeed not outstanding."
No matter how important the strategic significance of the 'Ohio Class' is, it cannot change the fundamental reason why its appearance is very ordinary. Even submarines all over the world are similar in appearance. They are basically round and blunt-nosed, and the rest are in size. There are subdivision differences with the outer contour.
If you are not a professional military enthusiast, you may not be able to recognize what the submarine in front of you is.
Compared with the distinctive ‘fighters’ and ‘ships’, it is not surprising that they do not attract tourists’ attention.
Lu Ze didn't dwell on this reason. He happily pulled Lucy to the front of the 'Ohio' class strategic nuclear submarine, took out his camera and planned to take a group photo.
He held Lucy with one arm, and the other hand was unconsciously attached to the shell of the submarine.
After taking a few photos, a curtain of light also appeared on the eyeballs!
【bite! Current technological items: Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine! 】
[Copy achievement points: 120,000! 】
【Do you want to copy? 】
When looking at the prompt in front of him, Lu Ze was delighted: "It's so high?"
He had no idea that an 'ordinary' Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine could provide up to 120,000 achievement points!
A full 12,000 achievement points, which is just lower than the 'Kitty Hawk-class' aircraft carrier, and even higher than the Wasp-class amphibious assault ship.
From this point alone, this 'Ohio-class' is almost recognized by the system as one of the most powerful combat ships under large aircraft carriers, and can even be said to be the most powerful underwater ship.
However, it shouldn't be this high.
Suddenly, Lu Ze had a second thought and came up with a reliable guess.
"The cost of this thing is so high. It seems to be more valuable than the 'Wasp'. It is not unreasonable." He murmured.
Even though strategic nuclear submarines don't seem to be as brilliant as large surface ships, let alone aircraft carriers, they don't even attract much attention compared to the 'Wasp-class' amphibious assault ships.
This conclusion can be drawn from the reactions of visitors to this ship exhibition.
Even a Burke-class destroyer can instantly kill any submarine in terms of public opinion and shock level to ordinary people.
However, not attracting attention is one thing, but it does not mean that it is unimportant or cheap.
You know, the Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarines began to be built and put into service in the 1970s and 1980s. The average cost of each ship is about US$2 billion.
The Wasp-class amphibious assault ship was built and put into service after the 1990s. Even though the time difference is more than ten years and inflation has increased a lot, the cost is only about one billion US dollars.
If we compare it with the next-generation strategic nuclear submarine being developed by Yingjiang.
The Columbia-class strategic nuclear submarine will need to spend US$15 billion to develop and build a single ship by 2024, and its service is still far away. By then, the military-industrial complex will submit several more budget expansion bills to Congress, and it is estimated that it will be able to Running for $20 billion.
At this price, if Daxia can build two aircraft carriers and a few additional 055 large-scale drives, it will be no problem.
Not only is the manufacturing price expensive, but the work of submarines is also the most difficult and torturous among all naval ships.
Therefore, the higher achievement points for copying rewards should be due to the increase in value of this ‘Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine’.
Read this.
Lu Ze did not hesitate and muttered silently: "Use 'over-limit refresh' to perform 'double copy'!"
【bite! Over-limit refresh requires 20,000 achievement points! 】
【bite! Over-limit refresh is superimposed with ‘Multiple Copy’. This copy requires spending 400,000 achievement points. 】
[Whether to copy. 】
"Yes!"
The idea was just settled.
Instantly, a notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully acquiring the ‘Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine’. 】
[Obtain: Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine’s physical object*2, purple random reward*1! 】
[Achievement point reward: 260,000! 】
Looking at these lines of prompts, Lu Ze grinned and smiled silently: "I only lost 140,000 achievement points"
"But in exchange for an Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine, and a purple random reward."
"This business is not a loss."
That purple random reward alone is worth 100,000 achievement points, and how many achievement points is an additional Ohio-class strategic nuclear submarine worth?
How could he be unhappy!
After the copying was completed, Lu Ze continued to wander aimlessly with Lucy at the scene.
This time, the entire Eisenhower aircraft carrier battle group came directly to visit at once, almost filling all the parking spots in the port.
At first glance, the only word that can be used to describe it is 'shocking'.
Lu Ze was thinking about how soon Daxia could build an aircraft carrier battle formation and hold a one-time public exhibition for the public.
Not only can it reflect its own muscles, but it can also condense the cohesion of the entire country.
After a while.
Lu Ze looked at these ships with dull interest. It seemed that he didn't really have much to copy
In my mind, I started thinking about another thing.
When should this ‘Nimitz-class’ be delivered to Daxia?
"Now is not the right time. Let's wait until I return to China to deliver it." Lu Ze thought to himself.
However, Daxia is about to conduct the Asia-Pacific Joint Security Exercise. At the same time, it has just received a few large ships, and it is estimated that there will not be too many manpower available to make arrangements.
Not to mention the delivery of two 'Nimitz-class' aircraft carriers at once, even just one would leave Daxia in a hurry.
At this critical moment, he must delay the delivery time.
"And. The next delivery will not only be aircraft carriers."
"I need to go back to China and make preparations." Lu Ze decided decisively. He now has two 'Nimitz-class' nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and two 'Ohio-class' strategic nuclear submarines on hand. He still has more than half a month to go before returning home, so he might be able to get a lot of good stuff.
What was delivered this time is far more important than the previous ones combined. No Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carrier can compare with it.
Great care must be taken to ensure that everything is completely foolproof.
now.
Eagle sauce, evening time.
Tens of thousands of people gathered at the pier of the Port of Los Angeles to enjoy the fireworks display that continued to explode in the sky.
Whenever a round of brilliant flowers rises, you will hear "wow" sounds in various languages from around you.
However, Lu Ze didn't have much interest in this kind of fireworks show. He had already seen a grander display in Yanjing, which was probably the size of a small county in Daxia.
He kept his eyes on the dense crowd to prevent any accidents.
Although nothing has happened yet, the whole scene is still very chaotic.
at the same time.
He has also commanded the puppets and boarded the plane to Kiev.
The first thing to copy is naturally the long-cherished ‘Tu-160’ bomber. Although this thing has no stealth capabilities and is very weak under the modern air defense system.
Even after Daxia had the H-20, there was no need for this kind of weapons and equipment.
But it's a Tu-160! It is the ‘white swan’ in the minds of most aviation fans. With this kind of thing in front of you, is there any reason not to copy it?
"First ask the general manager of the Antonov Design Bureau."
"Let's see if we can go to Russia next week to inspect the Ruby Ship Design Institute." Lu Ze thought about this secretly.
If that didn't work, he could only rely on other methods to see if he could get close to the God of the North Wind.
Although it has not been officially completed, it should be of great value.
Two days later, on the 27th.
Daxia, in the office of the president of Xia Academy of Sciences.
Zhang Yuli and Zheng Lixing were chatting, the one drinking tea and the other smoking.
From time to time, he picked up a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard in front of the two people's table.
However, although they kept talking about things, their eyes always glanced at the phone on the desk from time to time.
Even when playing chess, the knight moves directly to the field, the cannon is used as the rook, and the rook is used as the bishop, and no one cares about it.
It seemed that winning or losing didn't matter anymore, and the two of them didn't pay attention to the chessboard at all.
Watch this move.
"I said, if you want to call, you should call first." Zhang Yuli shook his head helplessly.
Old Man Zheng, the flag has been lowered outside the chessboard. How can this be absent-minded? This is not even an eye here.
"You make it sound like you're not?" Zheng Lixing said angrily.
Zhang Yuli even said that he didn't even notice that the tea on the cup was almost spilled on the ground, and he wasn't any better than himself.
The reason why the two of them are like this is because today is the 27th!
What day is this? It’s a great day for the three ships in the Southern Fleet dockyard to be officially refitted!
As for the 'Seawolf-class nuclear attack submarine', it doesn't need to be changed much. After all, it spends most of its working time under the water, and attack nuclear submarines around the world are similar.
While both of them were teasing each other.
Suddenly, the phone on the table rang.
Zhang Yuli ran over quickly and answered the call at a fast speed.
He asked anxiously without realizing it: "I am Zhang Yuli, what can I do?"
Just hear.
Wang Guanghai's hearty laughter came from the opposite side: "Old Zhang, all ships have been renovated!"
"Including the aircraft carrier, the basic transformation of the appearance layout has been completed, and the painting and printing have been re-printed."
For example, the features on some previous 'Kitty Hawk-class' aircraft carriers were all removed during the modification, and at the same time, they were directly replaced with Daxia's characteristic paint.
Even some American-style specifications have been replaced by the standards implemented by Daxia.
It can be said that even senior military experts cannot tell how this aircraft carrier is similar to others in terms of appearance. It is more similar to the current North Sea Fleet's "Hedong".
"Okay, okay!" Zhang Yuli could only use such simple words to describe his mood.
"But."
Wang Guanghai changed his voice and said with some hesitation: "This aircraft carrier is exactly the same as the one we received before!"
Hear this.
Zhang Yuli was a little puzzled: "Exactly the same?? What do you mean?"
He didn't realize it for a moment. Isn't it normal for the military equipment to be exactly the same?
However, Zheng Lixing, who had been listening nearby, was shocked: "These aircraft carriers are exactly the same? How is this possible!!"
If this is a missile or an airplane, then the specific structure is exactly the same, which is very reasonable.
After all, these are mass-produced modules that only need to be assembled. If nothing else, it is unlikely that there will be inconsistencies unless the production batches are different.
But you must know that the construction cycle of an aircraft carrier often takes three to four years, sometimes more than four to five years.
The constantly evolving various advanced technologies, advanced instruments and equipment, etc. mean that you will never be able to find two identical aircraft carriers in the world, even if they are both of the same 'Kitty Hawk' class.
More or less, an aircraft carrier with such a huge span of construction time must have different points, maybe using better equipment, or having better ideas.
Or there is another more terrifying conjecture
"There is no difference at all in terms of instruments, structure, or equipment used," Wang Guanghai said with shock.
He really didn’t believe the ‘fact’ before him. The problem was that he had also visited the ‘Hedong’ in the North Sea Fleet, and after comparing them one by one, he discovered that every detail matched what he remembered!
"Hiss" Zheng Lixing took a breath of air.
It’s true! !
what does that mean? This 'Great Wall Watch' organization actually built two identical aircraft carriers at the same time, and even launched them one or two months apart.
What kind of terrible construction ability is this? What incredible preparations are needed to accomplish this?
Not to mention that today's Daxia can't do it, even ten years from now Daxia will be able to do it.
After all, they all have the ability to mass-produce aircraft carriers. This organization can even produce several aircraft carriers in a short period of time.
Doesn't that mean they really have a "nuclear-powered aircraft carrier" on hand?
Thinking of this, Zheng Lixing opened his mouth and murmured: "No, it really looks like me, right?"
If the world is not crazy, then I am probably crazy!
