There were sparkling waves on the sea, and Qin Tao was in a good mood as he looked at the waves at the rear of the warship ahead.
"To the north of us is Asan. Every time we pass, they will send people and equipment to join in the fun. They should be coming soon this time. By the time they come, we will be studying their equipment."
"Brother Tao, Ah San has recently signed a formal contract with the British. Next, they will dismantle the gantry and hoist it back. By then, they will be even more angry."
"We have already reminded them, but they did not listen at all. Oh, what can we do? Hey, the warship helicopter hangar in front has opened, and it seems that the ship-based helicopter is about to take off?"
"Yes, it seems there is something going on."
The 055 warship is very spacious and has a double hangar layout at the rear. Because the hangar area is very large, it generally does not carry the Z-20. Instead, it chooses the Z-18 with a larger take-off weight, especially the early-warning Z-18 Y.
, the accompanying 052 mainly carries two Z-20s for anti-submarine warfare, so that the entire formation can carry six carrier-based helicopters, which can cope with various situations. If that is not enough, there are also helicopters on the comprehensive supply ship.
Now, the 055 in front opened the cabin door, and a carrier-based early warning helicopter took off. The 052 on both sides took off an anti-submarine Z-20 each. This battle was quite big.
At this time, Xu Zhengyang, who was on the bridge, also ran over: "Mr. Qin, there may be something going on outside. You'd better go into the cabin. It's safer in the cabin."
"What can happen? Isn't it just some minor harassment?" Qin Tao said: "We can call the Siamese Navy for support at any time. The worst we can do is conduct an exercise here first."
Qin Tao has seen big scenes, so this small situation will not affect him at all. He can watch the fun.
Xu Zhengyang was helpless.
However, the battle did not last long. Soon, two Z-Twenties flew back. Zhi-Eight Y was always in the sky, supervising every move on the sea in the distance.
"Did you see it? A small scene." Qin Tao said: "There are no big threats in the water. At most, it is a Kilo-class submarine. Throwing some buoys is enough to scare them away."
"President Qin, the Asan Navy's underwater force is not only Kilo-class submarines, they also have a nuclear submarine."
"Yes, they also have a nuclear submarine leased from Lao Maozi, but it is still outdated, and the performance is still under our control, so there is no need to worry."
"All right."
The small episode during the voyage passed quickly, and the fleet continued to move forward. Qin Tao was bored and squatted on the bow of the ship, throwing down his fishing rod.
"Mr. Qin, our ship is moving forward, it is difficult to catch fish." Xu Zhengyang couldn't help but said when he saw Qin Tao dropping the fishhook.
"That's not necessarily true. Jiang Taigong can catch anything with a straight hook, not to mention we still have bait." Qin Tao said: "We will eat whatever we catch today. If we can't catch it..."
While talking, there was a force on the fishing rod, and Qin Tao suddenly became excited. Did you see it? This is coming!
So, Qin Tao started to reel in the line, and soon caught a big fish, weighing more than 20 kilograms!
"We have a good meal today. When the fish is ready, we will give them half a fish." Qin Tao pointed to 055 in front of him.
"How to send it?"
"Drones!"
Soon, an eight-rotor civilian drone took off from the cargo ship, with half a fish hanging underneath, and flew towards the 055 in front. Moreover, it circled around the ship island before flying to the rear.
On the helicopter deck, lower half of the fish.
On the warship, the formation commander had a meaningful smile on his face: "Today is a double blessing. We drove away a big fish underwater, and Mr. Qin caught another big fish!"
"Yes, it's all thanks to them, otherwise our life at sea would be really boring."
We are not afraid of challenges, we are only afraid of life being too monotonous.
The formation continued sailing southwest, crossed the equator, crossed the ocean, and finally arrived at the Rainbow Country.
After entering the relevant waters, the Rainbow Nation Navy launched the foreign trade 054 frigate to greet them.
At that time, the Mingzhou Group defeated the A200 frigates of its German counterparts and provided the Rainbow Nation with four 054 frigates. Moreover, these frigates were built at the Glorious Years Shipyard. Later, there were two 039 submarines. These warships formed the Rainbow Nation.
The main force of the navy is definitely ranked first among the coastal countries in southern Africa. However, after so many years, these warships have become a little old. The Rainbow Nation Navy needs brand-new warships with a displacement of 20,000.
tons of amphibious assault ships, also known as aircraft carriers!
Looking at those 054, Qin Tao became even more energetic.
Since the new warships will also be built at the Glory Years Shipyard, this time the fleet will dock directly at the pier of the Glory Years Shipyard, and the security work here will be easier. Almost all of them are from the Glory Years Security Company.
Staff, these were once the foundation of Vana, but now, in Rainbow Kingdom, they have developed into a behemoth. Their force is stronger than the regular army of Rainbow Kingdom, and they can easily control the entire Rainbow Kingdom.
A large group of leaders were waiting on the dock. There were Meyer, who was going to the East to discuss cooperation this time, Davidson and others who had become good friends with Qin Tao before, and people from the shipyard. Liu Dashan stood at the dock, and the most important one was
Excited.
Mr. Qin is here, Mr. Qin is here! These expatriate employees are so looking forward to Mr. Qin coming to see them!
However, they also know that Mr. Qin's identity is becoming more and more important, and the dangers he faces are getting bigger and bigger. He has not traveled abroad for several years. He can come this time because he has the protection of more people, and it is for the sake of being here.
important projects.
Build amphibious ships! Their shipyard here is also going to start building amphibious ships. Their glorious years shipyard has finally become the largest shipyard in Africa!
Watching the two ships transporting steel gradually approaching, Liu Dashan became more and more excited.
Finally, the ship docked, and two rows of security personnel from the glorious days immediately boarded the ship, walked to the cabin door of the bridge, and then set up several pieces of bulletproof glass to protect Qin Tao's surroundings.
"No, it's not that serious. Even the President of the United States does not receive this kind of treatment." Qin Tao felt a little embarrassed when he saw such a battle.
There are armed helicopters overhead, and there are three posts, one post, five posts, and one sentry in the port below. This is enough. If someone else can sneak in here to snipe him, it can only be God's will.
"No, Mr. Qin, from the moment you set foot in the Rainbow Kingdom, we will be fully responsible for your safety and we will ensure that you will not have any problems." The security personnel on the side said in Russian, obviously the most elite in Vana.
a group of people.
Where's Vitalia? I didn't see her, I guess she was hiding in the dark. In fact, with the strength of Varna, Vitalia's safety has become increasingly important, and there are no people or organizations who want to kill her.
There must be quite a few.
Mayer was the first to come up: "Mr. Qin, welcome to the Rainbow Kingdom..."
Before he finished speaking, the bulletproof glass spread out and even he was wrapped up.
"It's a great honor." Qin Tao looked at the scene around him and still felt a little uncomfortable. He had never experienced such a scene before.
"Everyone, is the time suitable? If so, we will hold the ceremony first, and then..."
If you hold the ceremony first, you won't have to show your face. Once you enter the building, you won't have to go through such trouble, right?
"The time is just right, Mr. Qin, we can carry out the groundbreaking ceremony immediately. We will name this aircraft carrier..." Meyer paused, and then continued: "Glorious Years!"
The song "Glory Days" has spread to the entire Rainbow Nation, even the entire Africa, and the entire world, and it is still enduring. At this time, this song is still playing on the radio in the shipyard, and the Rainbow Nation's aircraft carrier finally
The powerful war machine will also be named Glorious Years!
The bell rang as a signal to return home, which seemed to bring a bit of sadness in his life...
Accompanied by such songs, Qin Tao and everyone came to the platform that had been set up next to the slipway of the shipyard. The goal here was more obvious. At the same time, the safety facilities here were also in place. From the outside to the inside, there were three floors.
bullet-proof glass.
Even if there is a tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet, it is still 14.5 mm in caliber. When it passes through the first layer of bulletproof glass, there will be a warning, and then the bodyguard on the side can press the button and lead Qin Tao and Zhao Ling directly through the
The flap mechanism goes underground.
Unless a bomb is dropped, but in that case, it is not a simple assassination, but an act of war. The warships docked outside are not vegetarians.
Qin Tao walked up, looked at the eyes below, and then said: "Before the groundbreaking ceremony, I propose that we sing "The Glorious Years" together!"
The response immediately came from below: "Okay!"
"...Today there is only the remaining body, welcoming the glorious years, holding on to freedom in the wind and rain..."
"After a life of hesitant struggle, self-confidence can change the future. Who can do it? Here, I can say that our Rainbow Nation has done it!" Qin Tao looked at the people below, with confidence in his eyes: "Rainbow Nation
The future of the Rainbow Nation is in its own hands. Over the years, you have achieved freedom and realized your dreams. You have built a strong country with your own hands! You have a strong navy, and now you will also have a strong one.
aircraft carrier!"
Although it is an amphibious assault ship, when it is announced to the outside world, the aircraft carrier is obviously more imposing, so Qin Tao has always used the title of aircraft carrier.
"Now, I announce that the construction of the aircraft carrier Glorious Years has officially begun!"
There was a burst of warm applause below. In the applause, the first piece of marine steel plate was unloaded from the bulk carrier. The workers used their dexterous hands to draw lines on it, cut it, and then entered the bending machine on the side. After repeated
After many operations, the first steel plate was finally made!
"Mr. Qin, I have seen modern shipbuilding tools over in Mingzhou, and the entire process is automated." Mayer said next to Qin Tao.
The ceremony was over, and construction was going on in full swing. At this time, Mayer was a little dissatisfied with the old equipment of the glorious years shipyard.
"Mr. Mayer, if we install advanced equipment here, it means that a large number of workers will lose their jobs." Qin Tao looked at Mayer: "You should know that there is a job that is very important to ordinary people.
How important it is. There is a large amount of surplus labor here, so we would rather increase some working hours and spend more costs to give local workers one more job opportunity."
Mayer nodded happily: "Yes, Mr. Qin, you are so kind to us!"
Are you kidding me? Of course, those advanced equipment can only be used in China. If they are brought here, if something unexpected happens, won’t the machines and equipment be cheaper for others? What if they are learned by outsiders?
Therefore, except for Eastern China, the equipment in other places has to be one level behind!
Almost the same day, Asan Cochin Shipyard.
"Today is an important day for our Asan shipbuilding business. In order to build our Asan's second aircraft carrier, we decided to build a brand new dry dock at the Cochin Shipyard!" Sunil stood on the rostrum and looked down.
, said with confidence: "This dry dock is 310 meters long, 75 meters wide, and 13 meters deep. This dry dock can build a cargo ship of up to 100,000 tons, or an aircraft carrier of 80,000 tons. We are currently preparing to design a displacement ship."
A 75,000-ton super aircraft carrier, we named this aircraft carrier Vishal!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Generally, it is named after it is launched, or when the order is placed. Now, Asan announced the name of the new aircraft carrier when the dry dock was being built. This
The speed is so fast that it is unbelievable.
"This aircraft carrier will be a super aircraft carrier. In order to improve its combat effectiveness, we will also use electromagnetic ejection and electromagnetic interception technology on it. This is also an advanced technology that we are actively preparing to conquer!"
After reaching an agreement with the British, Ah San couldn't wait. Since the technology of electromagnetic catapults and electromagnetic interception is no longer a problem, it would be a waste to only use it on the Blue Sky Guardian. After all, the displacement of this aircraft carrier is not large enough.
Due to the excitement of going to the East, they decided to build the next aircraft carrier.
This ship needs to be bigger. The Cochin Shipyard does not have a shipyard of this level, so it can only build one first!
However, they are still not bold enough, or they are not courageous enough. Now they have only built an 80,000-ton aircraft carrier. What if they want to build a 100,000-ton aircraft carrier in the future? They will have to build a new one!
At Asan's speed, it would take several years to build a dry dock, which is really not cost-effective.
But now, Ah San is happy, and we will talk about the future later.
"Our Asan's shipbuilding technology leads the world, and we will definitely be able to build an advanced aircraft carrier! At the same time, in order to cooperate with this shipyard, we will also purchase gantry cranes from the UK, with a lifting weight of up to 12,000 tons. With it, we can
The 75,000-ton aircraft carrier is built in five or six sections, which can greatly speed up the construction progress. Our Vishal is expected to be completed within three years!"
Anyway, there is no tax for bragging. If Asan really wants to use the segmented construction method, it will be damned if they can be connected. The error will definitely be huge.
However, Ah San didn't care, he had to brag first, and besides, this shipyard was really built to match the gantry crane.
A dock was specially built for the newly purchased gantry crane. Only Asan could build it.
"At the same time, we also decided to use nuclear power on this aircraft carrier!"
Ah San's current aircraft carrier is equipped with an LM2500 gas turbine, but this power can only support a 40,000-ton aircraft carrier at most. If it is larger, it will not be able to push a 75,000-ton aircraft carrier. The British
The gas turbine can't push it, so it can only be replaced by other power sources.
Ah San decided to launch a large satellite again and upgrade the power directly to nuclear power. After all, they don’t have the technology to burn boilers, and now Lao Maozi doesn’t have it either. Even if they want to buy it, they can’t buy it. The only one in the world that produces 80,000
Only Dongfang uses boilers for tonnage-class aircraft carriers, and Asan will never purchase aircraft carrier boilers from Dongfang.
Since we couldn't buy a boiler anyway, we might as well just go for nuclear power. Ah San had been thinking about building his own nuclear submarine, and by the way, he would also take care of the aircraft carrier's nuclear reactor.
Although these two types of nuclear reactors are very different, the French, the only people in the world who have packed a nuclear submarine reactor into an aircraft carrier, have proven how unreliable this is with actual actions, but Asantou Iron will definitely try again
of.
Just because the French can't handle it doesn't mean Asan can't handle it.
Ah San is full of confidence.
Following Sunil's speech, the news quickly spread around the world. When it reached Qin Tao's ears, he was in a meeting with a group of senior officials from the Rainbow Kingdom.
"The construction technology of aircraft carriers is very complicated. Although we have built frigates here, there is still a long way to go before we can build aircraft carriers. Therefore, we cannot rush, let alone use segmented construction. Our safest option is to use the manufacturing method of American aircraft carriers.
, tower construction, building the aircraft carrier bit by bit, so although it takes more time, it is very safe and will not cause major problems."
"That's right, we can't be in a hurry!"
"You must not make jokes, especially jokes like Ah San's."
Just as Asan was talking, an intelligence officer walked in: "Report, I just got the news that Asan Cochin Shipyard held a groundbreaking ceremony for a new dock today. They are about to build a second nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, and the displacement will reach seven.
Fifteen thousand tons.”
"President Qin, is a dock necessary to build an aircraft carrier?" Someone asked immediately.
There are two ways to build a ship. One is to build it directly on the slipway on land and then push the ship down. The other is to build it in the dock. After the ship is built, the dock is filled with water and the ship is driven out.
In comparison, the slipway is very simple, but the launching is very complicated. Especially for super aircraft carriers, the impact of launching may cause damage to the warship hull, so it is best to use a dock.
But, can Qin Tao answer like this?
The Glory Years Shipyard used slipways to build aircraft carriers!
"Of course it is not necessary." Qin Tao said: "It is best to have a dock, but building a dock for one ship is too wasteful. Most people can't understand Asan's brain circuit. Our Mingzhou Group has advanced technology, slipway
It's the same as the shipyard. When Lao Maozi built the aircraft carrier, he also used the slipway construction method."
