Chapter 700 What a yellow water battleship I am
The leader of the National Defense Working Committee looked at the comrades of the Maritime Decoration Bureau with some helplessness, and knew that you would all have to be circumvented by Gao Zhendong in the end. Not to mention completely following his ideas, you would always be impressed by him in some way anyway.
Get used to it, get used to it.
"Tell me about your large escort boat!" The comrades of the Marine Equipment Bureau were very interested. Not to mention, Gao Zhendong's two suggestions really touched their hearts.
Hey, that's right if you take the bait.
Gao Zhendong said: "As we said before, gunboats are the housekeepers and missile boats are the assassins, but there is still one less expensive one, but with sufficient comprehensive capabilities and a certain endurance, they can lead these little guys to fight in the offshore. At the same time, they can also A ship with certain long-range combat capabilities.”
Many people think it makes sense, but there seems to be something wrong with it.
"Isn't this a big ship?" Some comrades reacted. Isn't this taking off their pants and farting?
Gao Zhendong smiled and said: "Yes, but big ships are expensive!"
Okay, don't say anything anymore, a penny can't defeat a heroic man!
Comrades then remembered, yes, big ships are expensive. Who doesn’t want big ships? But that thing is not just a matter of spending a few more tons of steel.
Gao Zhendong's idea is not complicated, it is the youth version of the battleship - the battleship.
According to the configuration Gao Zhendong saw in his previous life, if the small train's 10,000-ton large drive is the core, then the main force will be the lower-level D-type and DL-type ships.
But here, the core is escort and destroyer-type ships, and the main force is large escort boats, although these "big ships" are not that big.
Gao Zhendong's idea is to take advantage of the time gap in technological leadership to use large escort boats to achieve to a certain extent the effects that would otherwise require larger warships.
Even at the beginning, before the big ships were modified or upgraded, the overall combat power of this kind of boat within a certain distance from the shore was even greater than that of these "big ships".
"What do you think of the specific requirements?" the National Defense Work Committee asked.
"The full displacement reaches about 500 tons, the top speed is about 30 knots, the fully enclosed cabin, the self-sustaining capacity is not less than 1,200 nautical miles/15 knots, and it can sail in X-level sea conditions."
This is the most basic requirement. It does not include armaments, but is only a requirement for the hull itself.
Every time he said a word, the expressions of the Haifa Bureau and some comrades changed, and in the end they looked dumbfounded.
"Comrade Zhendong, although you said this is a boat, you have pushed your requirements for a 'boat' to the upper limit. This boat is not simple."
The comrade from the Maritime Decoration Bureau said with a wry smile.
Gao Zhendong nodded: "Well, yes, it's not simple, but it's still a boat."
I know you have stock, hehe~~~~~~
At this time, a comrade from a certain design office looked at a comrade from the Marine Equipment Bureau, and the Marine Equipment Bureau looked at the National Defense Work Committee.
The meeting was suspended. Comrades on several sides walked up to the leader of the National Defense Working Committee and said a few words. They saw the leader of the National Defense Working Committee smiled and nodded.
Several comrades walked back to their seats, and the comrade from the design office just now spoke with a slightly surprised and dumbfounded expression.
"Comrade Gao Zhendong, we happen to have a piece of equipment under development, which is similar to what you mentioned."
When it comes to equipment under development, no wonder they want to come together to discuss it.
Gao Zhendong smiled, I know you have it, but I can't say it.
"Let's talk about the situation of this equipment first. The full displacement is close to 400 tons. The design speed and endurance meet the requirements you mentioned. The seaworthiness in sea conditions is a little bit worse, but it has an open bridge."
Gao Zhendong smiled even more happily. Sure enough, all the military fans who were interested in the navy in the past life knew about the Yellow Water Battleship, and they were very powerful.
Originally, this thing was designed for hunting submarines, but in the end, it was actually used as a large high-speed escort boat. It mainly has more guns, a larger boat, better seaworthiness than others, and longer legs.
"The whole row is already 400. If it is stretched a few meters, the whole row will be 500, haha."
Gao Zhendong said it like a cabbage, but in fact, this elongation is the improvement direction of this type of boat modification.
"Ah this..."
"As for sea conditions, add a stabilizer fin. It's not much different to begin with. Adding this should be enough."
This is how the Huangshui battleship was modified in order to go to the southern sea and meet the requirements for missile launch under the sea conditions in this sea area.
The leader of the National Defense Work Committee interjected: "Zhendong, you want X-level sea conditions, is it for the south?"
Some people didn't quite understand which south it was, but some people understood it and narrowed their eyes.
Gao Zhendong chuckled and acquiesced.
The leader of the Defense Working Committee nodded. His idea really coincided with some of the chief's words.
"I want to fully close the bridge for this reason. The journey is long and the deployment time will be long. The closed bridge will be more comfortable. At least it can also install an air conditioner to improve the combat environment for the commanders and fighters."
There are about 70 people in the whole boat, distributed in various battle positions. I don't know if it is possible to load them all, but at least some of them should be loaded.
Comrade from the Marine Decoration Bureau was so moved because Chief Engineer Gao was so considerate. The comrade from the Ship Research Institute almost rolled his eyes. This comrade said it so easily...
Then he thought about it in his mind, what the fuck? It's really easy, it seems like there really is a way.
This was something they themselves later improved upon, so it wouldn't be easy.
But it seems that the engine is almost useless? But it doesn't seem to be much different.
"Well, except for the speed, it seems that it can be changed according to what you said. If the speed is extended like this, it will definitely drop a little." This does not mean that the comrades of the institute are ready to make changes. Party A has not spoken yet. , but technical discussions are still possible.
Gao Zhendong smiled and said: "Whether it is appropriate to lower it a little or not is a matter for the comrades of the Shipbuilding Bureau. It is difficult for me to express my opinion."
The comrades almost went berserk after hearing these words. This comrade is not kind.
However, Gao Zhendong still added: "Actually, if I drop one or two quarters, I personally feel that it is not a big problem."
The Huangshui battleship was lengthened to a 500-ton full-row version, with a top speed of 28 knots.
You can't use it as a non-stick pan, otherwise no one will play with you.
This is nonsense. The comrades from the research institute laughed: "General Engineer Gao, let me talk about the current deployment of force. I think you are most interested in this."
Not to mention, he is really good at reading people.
The comrades from the institute introduced the weapons and equipment, and it turned out to be a yellow water battleship. In fact, there were no other large boats with a displacement of about 400 tons at this time.
Double 57*2, double 25*2, 5-unit rocket depth charge launcher*4, depth charge launcher*2, jamming chaff launcher*2.
This jamming chaff launcher is the only thing that is different from the basic model of the Huangshui battleship that Gao Zhendong knew in his previous life. This matter was originally his own fault. He encouraged his comrades to do it.
After listening, Gao Zhendong thought about it for a moment, and then said: "If this boat is used as the basis, my suggestion is to remove the rear dual 57-meter cannon and add a triple solid anti-ship There are two missile launchers. Remove the front twin 25mm guns and consider replacing them with multiple portable anti-aircraft missiles. If you really want to use torpedoes, you can consider installing two on them.”
This hodgepodge shocked everyone. What the hell kind of ship is this?
Especially the torpedo, but Gao Zhendong actually said this about torpedoes, and I guess he will cancel it if he doesn't like it later.
It doesn't matter if you don't cancel it. This thing can still be used to give the final blow to a large ship or a merchant ship. It is easy to install and has little impact on other parts of the hull. If you really can't bear to leave it, just keep it.
But this arrangement can be accommodated. Not to mention other things, the first one of the Huangshui battleships is that it is long enough, not to mention that Gao Zhendong also asked for a few meters of extension.
Looking at the appearance of the second-generation missile boat it has been modified, you may even overlook the few anti-ship missile launchers if you are not careful.
"This lack of firepower..."
"Insufficient firepower? 6 anti-ship missiles are still insufficient firepower?"
"It can only fire 6 rounds, there are not many shells."
"Are you kidding? What can't be solved by 6 missiles, even if there are more artillery shells, it will be difficult."
"Don't forget, this thing is a submarine hunter."
"It's for hunting submarines. The sonar, rocket depth charges and depth charge release racks are all still there."
"Ah this..."
But the comrades of the Shipping Decoration Bureau have been deeply attracted by this hedgehog.
The artillery was cut in half and replaced with anti-ship missiles and anti-aircraft missiles. Although the anti-aircraft missiles are a little guy at first glance, there is a difference between having them and not having them.
"Chief Engineer Gao, how high can this portable anti-aircraft missile hit?" I'd better ask first.
Gao Zhendong said: "The current design is to shoot at a height of 3.5 kilometers and a combat range of 0.2 to 4 kilometers." It is basically the standard of Citigroup's Stinger.
The comrades from the Shipping Decoration Bureau looked pleased with themselves: "Well, change! Change!"
——Double 25 cannons have a range of 3 kilometers. If the shells are replaced with missiles, the range is still greater. Only a fool would not change. Besides, don’t they keep a double 25 as a backup?
This is considered the original version of the combined projectile and cannon system.
Some comrades did the math and felt something was wrong: "Chief Engineer Gao, in this case, all the benefits of lengthening the hull will be taken away by these weapons."
Gao Zhendong shook his head: "No, lengthening the hull increases the displacement by about 100 tons, but removes one double 57 and one double 25, and the double 25 is heavier than the 8-unit portable anti-aircraft missile. 6 anti-ship missiles The aircraft does not exceed 15 tons, and with the addition of radars, the weight gain will not exceed 20 tons. The torpedo is simple. It basically does not have many other things except the tube and the mine, and the weight gain will not be too heavy. "
The comrades at the Ship Research Institute did not know the performance of the new equipment mentioned by Gao Zhendong. He originally thought that the solid bomb was a big thing like Zhengxian No. 1, but he did not expect it to be so light. The anti-aircraft missile was also light. He listened carefully and said with a smile. : "If this is the case, there is actually no need to increase it so much. Basically, a little increase in the original tonnage is enough."
Gao Zhendong shook his head: "No, I still need it. My consideration for this part of the tonnage is to increase self-sustainability and improve the living environment."
