"Dad, this is our plan." Qin Tao put the report in front of Wu Shengli: "After careful study by the aerospace department, we believe that we can export a simplified version of the YJ-21 hypersonic anti-ship missile. It is expected that
It is a big business worth billions of dollars, and the aerospace sector will also gain high profits from it."
"In the office, don't be so friendly." Wu Shengli said, "We have to do business."
"Yes, Dad."
Wu Shengli rolled his eyes at him: "Taozi, you also know that the YJ-21 is currently the most powerful anti-ship missile of our navy. The navy has not warmed up to it in its own hands, but you are going to sell it.
, Yes, it can indeed be sold for a lot of money, but our navy also has to consider its own interests. Everyone has already had a unanimous discussion and feels that this project is too important to act rashly. It has not yet been exported.
"
"But I have already promised to the big dog."
"That's your business. Since you agreed, the big dog will go find you. It has nothing to do with us."
Qin Tao looked at his father-in-law and felt a little helpless. When we were poor in the past, we could sell whatever we wanted. Now we are finally richer. Our navy is really rich.
"Dad, the Navy currently owes our Mingzhou Group a construction fund. When will it be settled for us?"
Wu Shengli smiled: "Taozi, I knew you would ask this. We have already prepared it, and the funds have been transferred to your group's account."
In the past, the Navy did default on funds, but that was all in the past. Now the Navy will not default on these construction funds, especially the projects related to the 003 aircraft carrier and the 055 destroyer.
"The funds have been given, so your construction can be accelerated. Our navy is still waiting eagerly," Wu Shengli said.
"Dad, we have been seizing the time to complete the finishing work. It should be almost time for the 055 destroyer to be ready for sea trials." Qin Tao said.
055, the navy's most advanced destroyer, has finally entered the final stage after intense construction. It is about to complete outfitting and enter the important stage of sea trials.
Although the Mingzhou Group has built a large number of destroyers, they are all Aegis battleships of six to seven thousand tons. The largest 052DL has a displacement of less than 8,000 tons. The 055 is a 10,000-ton destroyer. It not only has a large displacement, but also
A lot of advanced equipment is also used, such as dual-band radar. Even if many tests are conducted on land, there will still be a lot of uncertainty in the sea trial stage. Therefore, the next sea trial will be
will be more important.
"Are you ready?" Wu Shengli said: "This sea trial is very important. By then, many missiles will be tested."
Qin Tao suddenly thought of something: "Is it the shipboard test of Red Flag Nineteen?"
In the past, Hongqi 19 was tested on board the ship, but at that time it was a scrapped satellite, and it was equivalent to knowing the orbit and other conditions in advance. But this time, it went to sea and was tested on 055, that is
It was carried out with real swords and guns.
The various radars and fire control systems on the 055 warship are a severe test, and at the same time, this is also a test that must be passed.
"You kid, do you know about Red Flag Nineteen? There are more than just Red Flag Nineteen advanced weapons in our navy's arsenal."
"Red Flag 26 is out?" Qin Tao suddenly became excited. When the 055 destroyer was designed, it was used as a sea-based anti-missile platform. This kind of platform requires advanced missiles. Although Red Flag 19 has been developed,
But the performance is still limited, the shooting height is not enough, and the range is not enough. At most, it can intercept medium-range missiles. If you want to intercept long-range or even intercontinental ballistic missiles, you need something as big as the Red Flag 26.
Wu Shengli rolled his eyes at him: "How can it be so fast? This is not a matter of words. To develop advanced missiles, it requires a combination of advanced technologies from many aspects."
Not Red Flag 26? What is that?
Qin Tao doesn't know anymore.
"Relevant domestic institutions have successfully developed a new type of turbofan engine that is more fuel-efficient than existing models. The YJ-18 missile equipped with this turbofan engine will have a range of more than a thousand kilometers."
The YJ-12 has supersonic speed throughout, so its range is limited. For this reason, China has developed the YJ-18 missile that combines sub-supersonic capabilities. From the appearance point of view, the biggest feature of this missile is that there is an extra shell on the upper part of the missile body.
It's like peeling corn with the last layer of husks left.
This layer of skin is the key to sub-super union.
When the YJ-18 missile takes off, there is a booster behind the butt. After it takes off, the booster will fall off, the small turbofan engine will ignite, the straight-shaped wings in the middle of the missile body will unfold, and the missile will start.
The process of cruising.
If it is a cruise missile with the same missile body, not to mention the Tomahawk, even the Long Sword Ten can fly two to three thousand kilometers, but when it comes to the YJ-18, the range is only a few hundred kilometers. Why is this?
Of course it's because there isn't much fuel.
The front half of the YJ-18 missile does not have the liquid fuel required by the small turbofan engine. The fuel is stored in the rear half. Judging from the length, its fuel tank is only about one-third that of other cruise missiles. It can have six
The range of 100 kilometers is already very good.
What is the first half?
After approaching the target, the front half of the missile will fall from the nesting place, and the four tail fins will unfold from the back. Then the front half will transform into a new anti-ship missile. After the solid rocket is ignited, this anti-ship missile will
It can sprint to Mach two or three, and then perform a snake-like maneuver to ensure that the opponent cannot react and hit the enemy warship hard. With just one shot, it can send a 10,000-ton warship into the sea!
The cruise stage is subsonic, which can save fuel and fly longer distances, and the final stage is supersonic, which facilitates penetration. Anti-ship missiles such as the YJ-18 are more advanced and can be said to be the most powerful cruise anti-ship missile in the navy.
Now, this missile has also been upgraded and equipped with a more fuel-efficient cruise engine, with a range of one thousand kilometers!
The main equipment of the Eastern Navy is prepared to defeat the enemy's aircraft carrier formation. The air defense distance of the opponent's aircraft carrier formation is 600 kilometers, so our own anti-ship missiles must have a range of 600 kilometers. However, this does not mean
If it is not safe, the opponent's fighter planes may fly farther, and the opponent's carrier-based early warning aircraft may also search farther. At the same time, if the opponent finds that it is being attacked, it may retreat quickly. The farther the range, the harder the fight will be.
flexible.
One thousand kilometers is enough.
"Okay." Qin Tao nodded: "The upgraded YJ-18 will be more complete. At that time, a group of YJ-18s will fly over the sea, and a group of YJ-21s will crash down in space. Let's see how they intercept them.
."
This can't be stopped at all.
"It was originally intended to be carried by 052DL, but considering that the electronic system of 052DL is not as advanced as 055, it is planned to be used by 055. You Mingzhou Group should not think about those miscellaneous things. For now, it is better to build the navy's warships first.
Say it again."
Launching anti-ship missiles is not just a launch tube with a diameter of 850 mm. This is a systematic project. From satellites in space to early warning aircraft on the ocean, all kinds of equipment must be used, especially advanced data links.
System, in this aspect, 055 is definitely more suitable.
"Okay." Qin Tao nodded.
Since my father-in-law does not support it, we can only wait for a while. If the big dog asks, it can be said that the process is going through.
"Dad, I'm leaving then."
"Well, go back and prepare. I will also be there during the audition."
April 1, 2005.
The Mingzhou Group's outfitting dock was crowded with people.
For the navy, it usually only comes when the warship is launched. The sea trial after the outfitting is nothing worthy of attention and is not a grand moment.
But this time is an exception.
After a long wait, the 055 destroyer finally completed the outfitting work and officially started sea trials. The Navy has high hopes for this warship and is extremely tolerant of its delay. You know, Qin Tao was filming
I promised myself that I would be able to do the audition by the end of the year, but it was postponed to April of the new year!
There are many reasons for this, especially the installation and debugging of various electronic equipment, which took a long time. The Navy could only wait patiently. After all, this cannot be blamed on the Mingzhou Group. This is the delay of the supporting suppliers, and the supporting suppliers
There are also difficulties: they modified the design plan. In order to give this warship the strongest performance, they decided to use the advanced Loongson-5 processor. This processor was just developed not long ago, and it still needs to undergo various tasks.
test.
Anyway, 055 has finally completed outfitting and is about to begin sea trials!
Compared with previous warships, the appearance of the 055 is more concise, especially the mast. It is the first warship in China to adopt comprehensive radio frequency mast technology. There are no messy masts anymore, only a quadrilateral structure mast.
Various slabs are laid outside. If foreigners see it, they will be extremely envious. Only the East can have such luxury!
The hull number 101 has been painted on the bow of the ship. This hull number is of great significance. The reuse of it now represents the navy's emphasis on this warship. It is the number one destroyer!
On the side of the bridge, a bright flag was hung in the center of two huge flat-panel antennas, making the warship look even more majestic.
On the dock next to the warship, there were more than two hundred sailors standing. They were wearing white navy uniforms, with determination and confidence in their eyes.
They are all carefully selected from the navy officers and soldiers! Only the best sailors can operate this 10,000-ton monster! As for the captain, he is Li Pingfan, the captain of the 168th warship who has performed many missions!
Li Pingfan is a top student in the Navy. He has gone to the Naval Academy many times for further training. He is a very commanding officer on No. 168. He knows everything about the entire ship, so he stands out from all his competitors and becomes the leader.
The captain of the Navy's first 055 destroyer.
During the sea trial phase, the Navy will work together with the shipyard's technical personnel.
Therefore, next to them stood the technical team of the shipyard. Yang Dawei stood at the front of the group, feeling very excited.
As the designer of this warship, he is familiar with everything on the warship. At the same time, he also participated in the entire construction process. This sea trial was also what he requested.
Warships such as aircraft carriers belong to the Second Design Department. This is the most modern warship designed by their First Design Department. Of course, he has to personally participate in the trial of this warship. It is of great significance to him.
He is not young anymore. He was already middle-aged when he was recruited by Mr. Qin. Now, many departments have to be managed by young people. After all, young people are more energetic. He is equivalent to standing last.
He is on duty at first shift. When the warship completes its sea trials, although he will continue to work, he will be taking a back seat.
In front of these crowds, stood the leaders of the navy. Wu Shengli stood in front of the crowd with a bright look on his face: "Comrades and fellow workers, the 055 destroyer has completed the outfitting work, and the next step is the sea trial. What's next?
Your work will become more important, and the time to test you has arrived. I hope you will not let down the hopes of the motherland and the people, the entrustment of the naval leaders, and successfully complete the sea trial mission!"
"yes!"
"Now, get on board!"
Everyone lined up in neat lines and walked towards the warship.
A 10,000-ton destroyer has a very large space. When it was designed, there was room to temporarily carry marines. Now, with more technical personnel from the shipyard, it can be fully arranged.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wu Shengli walked onto the deck of the destroyer and looked at everything around him.
The side of the 055 is recycled inward, and most of the place is covered with steel plates, forming a perfect extended shape. However, there are still some railings near the bridge, and these railings can open gaps to facilitate getting up and down.
Walking up from here, you can see the naval gun in front, the vertical launch system behind the naval gun, and the 1130 close-in defense gun on the second deck behind. These all look familiar.
However, the ancestral multi-barreled anti-submarine rocket depth bombs in front of the ship's bow have disappeared. At the 055 level, there is no longer a need to use such anti-submarine rocket depth bombs to fight bayonets.
The shape of the naval gun is special and angular, taking into account the need for stealth, and the 130 mm caliber also makes it look majestic. Before the electromagnetic gun is put on the ship, this kind of naval gun will become the pinnacle of chemical energy naval guns.
Made.
Wu Shengli read the front, then walked to the bridge, passed through the small door, entered the interior, followed the stairs, and came to the navigation bridge.
Like other warships, only this floor has windows, and there are no portholes in other places. This is also the result of considering many factors.
The first and most important factor is of course safety. Opening a hole in the steel plate to install glass will definitely reduce the strength. Even a cannonball flying over may break the glass. If you install portholes on the side of the ship, what if a careless sailor
If the windows are not closed and seawater pours in during stormy weather, it will cause big problems.
Although there are no extra portholes, the surrounding situation can still be clearly seen. When Wu Shengli walked in, he first saw various images on the large screen hanging at the rear.
"Is this surveillance?"
"This is a closed-circuit television system. Through this system, we can observe the situation at every battle position on the warship. If an accident occurs, we can observe it as soon as possible."
Surveillance sounds a bit unpleasant, but the closed-circuit television system sounds much nicer. It consists of four large screens spliced together, and there are sixteen grids on them. This displays sixty-four pictures, and you can see every place in them.
Case.
The sailor's cabin is full of bunk beds, and the space is very large. However, the sailors have already put all the bedding in the cabin in advance. They did not stay in the sailor's cabin to clean up the housekeeping. There are quite a few people in white clothes at each work station.
The sailors surrounded the technicians in blue clothes, obviously listening to various introductions.
There was also a large group of people in the engine room. At this time, Li Pingfan was giving orders in an orderly manner: "Attention, prepare to start the No. 1 and No. 2 main engines!"
The 055 large drive uses four gas turbines as the main power. During normal navigation, it is enough to start two gas turbines. Of course, in order to ensure that the four gas turbines have the same lifespan, they will be used alternately. For example, this time No. 1 and No. 2 will be used.
Use it for cruising, and use No. 3 and No. 4 for cruising next time to save two of them from being scrapped in advance.
Although the 055 destroyer is new, the UGT25000 gas turbine is an old acquaintance of the navy. It has been used since the 052B and has been used until now.
The engine crews operated skillfully, and the huge warship trembled slightly. Light blue smoke came out of the exhaust pipe and curled into the sky.
"Attention, disconnect the shore cable and switch to your own power."
When a warship is moored, it relies on the power provided by the shore to maintain internal ventilation and lighting. After all, this is a fully enclosed warship. If there is nothing, the air inside will become dirty over time.
After all these are done, the next step is to leave the pier.
Li Pingfan glanced at Wu Shengli and other leaders: "Report to Leader Wu that No. 101 is ready to go!"
"Set off!"
Li Pingfan glanced at Wu Shengli again: "Are the leaders going ashore?"
"Why go ashore? I'm going out today just to test the navigation ability of the warship. Let's have nothing to do. Let's go out together and follow around."
"yes."
Li Pingfan no longer hesitated: "Attention, both cars are in reverse, with full left rudder."
The warship can leave the dock on its own without the need for any tugboats, but it is also important to push the butt out first.
The roar sounded, and the reversing turbine at the rear began to rotate. After the turbulent water hit the steering surface, it turned and hit the dock. The butt of the 10,000-ton destroyer was swung out, and then it reversed straight and drove out.
Although you can only see the front from the bridge, with so many monitors, you can clearly see the surrounding situation.
The 055 destroyer left the outfitting dock, then switched to forward mode and headed for the distant seaport.
The sea trials of the 10,000-ton 055 destroyer have officially begun!
