Tres couldn't take his eyes away when he saw Duke Medea for the first time. After being pushed by Franky, he suddenly reacted and quickly lowered his head.
Aslan said dissatisfied: "Is this the quality of your country?"
"Sorry! Your Majesty, we are rude this time. Duke Medea is really too beautiful. Any normal man would be stunned. I ask for your understanding." Franky quickly bowed and said.
Aslan snorted, because Duke Medea next to him was giggling.
"The original good mood has been ruined by your actions, so stop being polite and take out your things!" Aslan said angrily.
This is the advantage of being an emperor, and he is also the emperor of a powerful country. He can speak and act as he pleases.
Franky has long been used to facing Aslan's character.
He nodded with a slight smile, took out the documents from the briefcase, and the maid next to Aslan immediately took them and sent them to Aslan.
Aslan took the document and looked at it.
The first page introduces a 100,000-ton bulk cargo ship. Ships that mainly transport bulk dry bulk cargoes such as grain, coal, ore, salt, cement, etc. can all be called dry bulk cargo ships.
Because dry bulk carriers carry a single type of cargo and do not need to be packaged in bundles, packages or boxes for loading and transportation, they are not afraid of squeezing and are easy to load and unload, so they are all single-deck ships. Those with a total load capacity of more than 50,000 tons are generally not
Loading equipment.
Since the stowage factors of grain, coal and ore vary greatly, the required cargo hold volume, hull structure, layout and equipment and many other aspects are different.
Therefore, it is generally customary to only call ships that carry grain, coal and other goods with similar stowage factors as bulk carriers, while ships that carry goods such as ore with smaller stowage factors are called ore ships. Used for grain, coal,
Ships carrying bulk cargo such as ore are usually divided into the following classes.
A ship with a total load capacity DW of 100,000 tons or more is called a Capesize ship. A ship with a total load capacity DW of 60,000 tons is usually called a Panamax ship. This is the largest ship type allowed to pass through the Panama Canal. The length must be less than 245 meters.
The ship's width is not more than 32.\n2 meters, and the maximum allowable draft is 12.\n04 meters. The total load capacity DW is 35,000 tons - 40,000 tons. It is called a light bulk carrier. The draft is shallow and it is used in all ports in the world.
Basically it can be docked.
The total load capacity DW ranges from 20,000 tons to 27,000 tons, and is called a small bulk carrier. It is the largest ship type that can sail to the five major lakes of the Holy Bryta Empire.
The maximum length does not exceed 222.\n5 meters, the maximum ship width is less than 23.\n1 meters, and the maximum draft is less than 7.\n925 meters. For ships used to transport ore, the larger the load capacity, the lower the transportation cost. Ore ships
The smallest total load capacity is 57,000 tons; the largest is 260,000 tons; most are around 12,000 tons-150,000 tons.
The 100,000-ton bulk ship in front of him mainly transports grains, but there are also many other types of cargo ships in it. Aslan is very satisfied. With his current strength, cargo ships exceeding 100,000 tons are still too difficult to handle. In the end,
The key is that his naval fleet has just been established and there is no way to send out the navy to survey the sea area.
If the draft is too large, it will be troublesome if you encounter a shoal. For safety reasons, under the current situation, it is safest to use a cargo ship of about 50,000 tons. However, such a 100,000-ton cargo ship is also needed, as long as it is transported over a long distance.
It is most suitable to travel between Wolan Island and Weihai Port.
Aslan ordered three 100,000-ton cargo ships, namely a grain bulk carrier and an iron ore bulk carrier.
Turning to the second page was the 50,000-ton freighter Aslan needed, which made Aslan even more comfortable. He chose two ships of various models.
The last ten or so pages were all about battleships, but after reading the data on the first page, Aslan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
The Snowfield-class destroyer is a destroyer of the Holy Breita Empire Navy. It is the main battleship used by the Holy Breita Empire during the Third World War. It has been in production for more than fifty years and was decommissioned twenty years ago.
.
The standard displacement is 2,000 tons, the full load displacement is 2,490 tons, the ship has a length of meters, a width of meters, and a draft of meters.
It has a crew of 228 people, a power plant with four oil-fired boilers, a main engine output of 52,000 horsepower, and dual-shaft propulsion.
The maximum speed is 35 knots, the endurance is 5,000 nautical miles, and the maximum range is about 6,000 nautical miles.
The weapons and equipment are 3 50-caliber 127mm C-type twin-mounted guns and 8 single-barreled 25mm anti-aircraft guns.
Type 92 has 2 610mm torpedo launch tubes in 4-link configuration, and the stern is equipped with mine-laying and mine-sweeping equipment.
It's just that the radar system, communication system and sonar system above have all been dismantled.
"What's the price?" Aslan asked, not caring about this.
"If your country takes it away on its own, just give me 5 million new Merlot coins. We still have twelve ships there." Franky said very generously.
When Aslan heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He instantly understood what the Holy Brighta Empire was planning.
The methods used by Blue Star countries to deal with decommissioned warships are all kinds of strange. Some are commendable, and some are extremely strange. For example, many of the decommissioned warships of the Gonza country are returned to their original ports and sealed. They can be reused with a little modification during wartime.
However, the maintenance costs brought by this method are too high, and not every country can use it.
The Economic Alliance is great. They once dismantled an aircraft carrier with a displacement of more than 50,000 tons and recycled its steel. There are also cases like the Eresh Empire where the economy is too poor to afford maintenance costs and no time to figure it out.
, so the decommissioned warships were moored in the port to withstand wind and rain, and let the years corrode them.
The Holy Brighta Empire uses relatively scientific and reasonable methods to make the best use of everything. Part of the decommissioned warships will be used as an open education base, allowing the people to understand the development of the country's military weapons and feel their charm. Some of the recycled warships are of little value.
Warships will be dismantled and the steel will be used for the construction of new warships. In some cases, the overall strength of retired warships is still good, and they will be simply upgraded and refitted and sold to other countries.
The Snowfield-class destroyer in front of us is probably one of those warships that is ready to be dismantled and recycled. The reason why it is sold so cheaply is that the cost of disassembly is too high. If one ship is dismantled, even if the steel is recycled, it will be a big loss to lose several million.
Normally, unless it takes up too much space, most of the time it will be used as a target and destroyed by new weapons.
The Holy Brighta Empire once equipped more than a hundred Snowfield-class destroyers. Now these twelve ships should be the ones left after being bombed. The warships that were retired twenty years ago should not have any special steel or equipment worth recycling.
"I have always been paying attention to the situation of Blue Star, and I happened to have heard of this warship. I am helping your country deal with garbage!" Aslan said mockingly.
