There are two side elevators at the front and rear of the ship island. In this way, it has two elevators with dimensions of 16 meters long and 14 meters wide. Although the Su-33 is only less than eight meters wide after folding the wings.
, but it is more than 20 meters long and cannot be folded.
At this time, the side elevator can exert its unique advantages: the butt of the carrier-based aircraft can be exposed to the outside. As long as the wheel is fixed on the elevator, there will be no problem, and it will be no problem if it extends five or six meters outward.
.
Therefore, this kind of warship can operate carrier-based aircraft such as the Su-33.
As for the Kiev-class aircraft carrier, this is not possible. It uses a built-in elevator and has an internal pothole on one side of the island. This limits the size of the aircraft to be smaller than the elevator.
Therefore, even if Asan in later generations purchased Rafale fighter jets from the French, he could not deploy the Rafale fighter jets on the aircraft carrier because the elevator was too small to fit inside.
Only the MiG-29 can barely enter, so no matter how dissatisfied Ah San is with the MiG-29k, they have no other choice but to use this carrier-based fighter.
At this time, billowing smoke was constantly coming out of the elevator port behind the Dongfanghai Ducheng.
Inside the elevator, there are more than a dozen smoke cans, the kind used during exercises. At the same time, behind these smoke cans, there are several large industrial electric fans, which are blowing smoke in front of them.
The can blows air.
Therefore, the smoke did not spread to the inside of the cabin, but kept flowing out, which looked very spectacular.
Behind the smoke, Kozlov observed the scene and replaced the smoke canister with a new one when necessary. He said to the people around him: "Old factory director, what's the use of doing this?"
Makarov smiled: "Mr. Qin didn't say it, but I think the purpose of this is to declare to the outside world that this warship has become a useless ship."
"Hulk? How is that possible? In our hands, it will become an aircraft carrier again!" Kozlov disagreed.
"Yes, of course it will become an aircraft carrier again, but before it can become an aircraft carrier, it needs to go through this step. After all, its current announced use is still a blocking ship."
Is it the only way to turn a blocked ship into an aircraft carrier?
Kozlov reacted: "That's it!"
On the outfitting dock.
A group of people walked around inside the submarine and finally came out. Everyone was very excited. Mamish vowed: "Don't worry, we will be able to raise the funds for the second submarine soon. Please let us continue to build the second submarine."
Two ships!”
"Hey, what's going on over there?" Zheng Ming saw the flames coming out of the dock in the distance and asked everyone in surprise.
Qin Tao chatted with Mamish with a smile. When he looked in the direction of Zheng Ming's finger, his expression immediately changed: "Sorry, we're sorry!"
After saying that, he jumped ashore in big strides and ran towards the dock.
At this time, there was chaos on the other side of Dayu. Some people were running back and forth, and some people had already started using water dragons to pour water over there, trying to extinguish the flames.
The Oriental Sea Blocking City accidentally caught fire during the renovation!
The news quickly spread throughout the country and the world.
People from all sides who are eyeing this project do so with the mentality of watching the excitement.
Hum, Mingzhou Group also makes mistakes sometimes!
The halo of Mingzhou Group has been broken!
There is a problem with the construction quality of Mingzhou Group!
Is that ship still usable? It was originally a broken shell, and now even the broken shell has been burned, so the quality must no longer be up to standard!
Three days later.
Mingzhou Group finally announced the results of the accident investigation.
"There was a foreign worker who, because he loved drinking, was bribed by some drinking friends outside. After accepting a large bribe from the other party, he deliberately set fire to it!" Qin Tao's face was extremely serious: "This is not an ordinary modification accident, this is completely...
A long-planned sabotage! We are extremely indignant towards the conspirators behind it!"
The reporters were all bombarded.
I knew it was impossible for Mingzhou Group to make such a low-level mistake, but I didn't expect that there was such an inside story.
Who is the conspirator behind this?
Needless to say? It must be those people on the other side of the ocean. They continued to create difficulties during the process of Green Venture Company’s purchase of the Varyag, but in the end they did not block the ship’s return to China. But these people will not
If they are willing to fail, they will do other things!
For example, deliberately win over certain boat workers and then sabotage them!
The other party would definitely not be able to win over domestic boatmen, so they simply roped in foreign boatmen. There are a large number of foreigners working in the Mingzhou Group, and it is normal for one or two of them to be bribed.
When the news reached some people's ears, they were as disgusted as eating shit. Although they were happy that the ship broke down, it was not them who did it!
Doesn't this throw dirty water on them?
However, if you report this as a credit, maybe you will be rewarded by your superiors?
Just after Mingzhou Group announced the investigation results, Green Venture Company also issued a statement.
Vitalia had already come to Mingzhou, but she didn't show up until today. She took over from Qin Tao, stood in front of the microphone, and looked at countless reporters: "We express strong indignation against this behavior. At the same time,
This failure cannot hinder our determination to enter the gaming industry in Ma Gang! We, a green company, are here to announce a new plan!"
Countless cameras were flashing in the Kacha Kacha area. Under the camera, Vitalia said loudly: "No force can hinder us. We are also very confident in the Mingzhou Group. Therefore, our group decided to start from Mingzhou."
The group has ordered a brand new blockade ship, which will have a displacement of 100,000 tons! At the same time, we will also name it the Oriental Sea Blockade City!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The 60,000-ton aircraft carrier shell was burned out. Green Venture Company was not discouraged. They will definitely do something even bigger: a 100,000-ton ship jam!
Everyone was excited for a while, and every piece of news was exciting!
"Next, we will drag the burning ship to a nearby dock, free up the dock, and build a 100,000-ton blockade." Qin Tao walked to the microphone and said: "Any conspiracy behind it will not be
It will hinder the progress of our Mingzhou Group!"
There was a burst of applause below. In the eyes of everyone, this was the beginning of Mingzhou Group’s new drive to become stronger.
The dock has started to fill with water.
The Old Dongfang Sea Dock City, which had been staying in the dock for half a year, slowly floated as the seawater poured in. With the help of the tugboat, it began to slowly leave the dock. Its movements were so slow, just like
It's as if he doesn't want to leave here.
However, compared with when it came in, its spray paint made it look brand new.
In the distance, Makarov stood on the dock and said to the people around him: "We still work in two shifts. Those on the night shift are fine, but those on the day shift must enter before dawn and after dark.
Then, all the materials needed for modification have to be transported at night, which puts higher demands on us."
Kozlov nodded: "Of course there is no problem, but why should we continue to be so cautious? Why shouldn't we do it blatantly?"
"Hold on, in a few months we will be able to do it openly," Makarov said.
It's already October.
The Old Oriental Sea Castle has once again become a hot topic in the news this month. Because someone had ulterior motives, it accidentally caught fire. After the fire, it was completely scrapped. It was quite difficult to bring it back. It made people sigh: Why bother?
Woolen cloth!
At that time, the construction of the 100,000-ton New Oriental Offshore Dacheng was immediately started. Maybe it has already been launched!
I originally wanted to take a shortcut, but found that I had gone in a big circle and ended up back where I started.
However, no one will doubt the shipbuilding quality of the Mingzhou Group, and after this incident, they will control the shipbuilders more strictly to avoid similar incidents from happening.
After holding the external press conference, Qin Tao has accomplished another major event. The only regret is that the ship was launched into the water for the first time after modification and there was no lively ceremony. However, this is nothing.
Anyway, after the interior modifications are almost completed, we have to drive it into the dock and paint the ship again. When it is launched into the water at that time, the scene will be very grand.
However, this seems to be somewhat similar to Asan. The aircraft carrier was thrown into the sea when it was halfway built. Thinking of this, Qin Tao smiled helplessly.
The pace of development will not stop, and there is no need to be too anxious. It will be done step by step. One day, some people will suddenly discover that Dongfang has become so powerful without even realizing it.
"Mr. Qin, there is bad news from the Coal Provincial Diesel Engine Factory." Xu Zhengyang whispered to Qin Tao.
"Bad news?" Qin Tao frowned.
"Yes, MTU has issued a formal notice requesting that the 396 diesel engine be immediately stopped for military purposes. Otherwise, they will stop supplying parts."
"This is going to kill us." Qin Tao said, "Let's go to the Coal Province Diesel Engine Factory to have a look."
In the past, domestic marine diesel engine technology was very backward. Later, Bincheng Diesel Engine Factory introduced Swiss Sulzer diesel engine technology. After many hardships, it was finally achieved.
Laoqu Diesel Engine Factory has introduced related diesel engine technology from France and used it on surface ships, including the 054 frigate currently being manufactured, which uses the 16pa6v-280stc diesel engine of Laoqu Diesel Engine Factory. This STC technology is still from Mingzhou Group
With help, the power of the diesel engine was greatly improved to meet the needs of the frigate. At the same time, Mingzhou Group also invested in the old district diesel engine factory and became the major shareholder.
As for the largest diesel engine production plant in China, it must be the Coal Province Diesel Engine Plant. This is one of the 156 key projects built with assistance from the Soviet Union during the first five-year plan. It is the national 150 series, high-power,
A manufacturer of high-speed diesel engines. (You will know this after reading "The Great Power Tank" by Heroes of East China. This factory is the main manufacturer of tank diesel engines in China, and the power of the 99 tank comes from here.)
Back then, after the country was opened, the Coal Province Diesel Engine Factory also began to actively introduce foreign technology. The product they introduced was the famous mtu396 diesel engine.
At that time, the Germans also put forward a lot of conditions. For example, they required how many units to purchase before discussing the introduction. I originally thought that it would be difficult for Dongfang. Unexpectedly, the domestic railway locomotives were being upgraded at that time, and the required diesel engines were imported.
Quantity is not a problem at all, it can be easily used on railway locomotives!
After that, the Germans could only provide a full set of technical information on the 396 diesel engine in accordance with the agreement.
However, MTU company is a thief. They only provide various materials and sizes, but not the craftsmanship. If you want to imitate it? Then go ahead and research it yourself. The craftsmanship? They don’t sell it for any money!
There is no retreat for coal province diesel engine factories, they must face the difficulties head on.
After all, this diesel engine and the mtu873 diesel engine used in the tank are products of the same era. If they want to imitate the engine used by the Leopard-2 tank, they must go all out. At the same time, this diesel engine is still the world's most powerful diesel engine.
The best-selling marine diesel engine! I don’t know how many ships are equipped with this kind of power, especially submarines!
For example, the old German 209 submarine has two 396 diesel engines installed in it.
It also has great uses in China. Take Mingzhou Shipyard as an example. The first flagship product is the 022 missile boat, which uses the 396 diesel engine. Now, the exported 039b foreign trade submarine also uses three 396 engines.
diesel engine.
Although this kind of diesel engine is produced by the Coal Province Diesel Engine Factory, its key components are still imported. It is not that simple to achieve 100% localization, and there must be a long way to go.
Qin Tao wants to go to the Coal Province Diesel Engine Factory for only one purpose: to use the technical strength of the Mingzhou Group to help the 396 diesel engine be domestically produced faster, so as to avoid being controlled by others in the future!
However, just before Qin Tao, Xu Zhengyang and others left, someone blocked Qin Tao with great enthusiasm.
"Mr. Qin, you actually used inferior products to trick us. This is an insult to us. We demand a return! We also demand compensation for the losses!"
Xu Zhengyang looked at the people in front of him in surprise and understood why Mr. Qin had made harsh demands on them at the defense exhibition. These guys were definitely typical examples of going back on their word!
After participating in the launching ceremony, Mamish went back, leaving a group of people to participate in the sea trial project. Standing in front of Qin Tao at this time was the person in charge of the sea trial sent by the Pyramid State, the scheduled submarine captain.
Inhab, another man, was responsible for supervising the construction of Aboutrika here.
The submarines have started sea trials and have been named. Now as soon as the sea trials are completed, it is time to sail back. These guys actually said they don't want it anymore and want to compensate for the losses!
MTU Company, as a supplier, is causing trouble for them, and the Pyramid people, as customers, are also looking for trouble. This is a joint attack from both front and back!
Xu Zhengyang looked gloomy and translated the other party's protest to Qin Tao. After all, Qin Tao couldn't understand Arabic.
After hearing the other party's protest, Qin Tao showed a surprised expression on his face: "We use inferior products to trick you? How is it possible? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. We are good friends, so, I
I don’t want you to be taken to court and accused of defamation.”
"How can we slander!" Yin Habu said: "The most important power system on the submarine is the three sets of diesel generator sets. What we want are products from the German MTU company, but you actually provide us with your own diesel engines.
!”
"Really?" Qin Tao said: "Then let's open the contract and take a look. If we make a mistake, we can return it to you or even compensate you. However, if you make a mistake, you need to apologize to us!"
The contract was brought, in three thick folders, in Chinese, Arabic and French.
"Come on, let's open the French contract and find the relevant parts about the engine." Qin Tao said, "Zhengyang, read it to them."
Xu Zhengyang quickly opened the contract and read on the corresponding page.
"For the power system, we use three 396 diesel engines authorized by the German MTU company, each outputting 6,800 horsepower to drive three twelve-phase generators..."
Yinhab and Aboutrika were both stunned. What, authorized production?
The 396 diesel engine is a masterpiece of MTU Company. However, in order to make more money, MTU Company also authorized this diesel engine to other companies in the world for production. Therefore, as long as the word "authorize" is added to this contract, it means
The place of origin does not have to be Germany, other countries are also fine!
The products of Meizhou Diesel Engine Factory are one of them.
"Everyone, this is the French version of the contract, which is the most rigorous. Of course, you can also take a look at your Arabic version and you can also see the word authorization." Qin Tao said: "We are completely acting in accordance with the contract.
, there is no fraud whatsoever.”
The two of them picked up the Arabic version of the contract with some annoyance, and sure enough, the words "authorized production" were also written in it.
Damn it, how could this happen? Didn't those people pursue these details when they negotiated the contract?
"No, there is a problem with this contract. We want MTU's products. The ones you produce domestically cannot meet the quality requirements!" Yin Habu decided to mess around.
"Can't meet the requirements?" Qin Tao's eyes held a meaningful smile: "Since you said so, let's talk about it. I remember that the subject of yesterday's sea trial was the maximum speed. Did it meet the design specifications?
?”
All of this has been recorded, so we can’t just talk nonsense. Yin Habu could only nod: “Yes, the design specifications have been reached.”
"That means our engine can already achieve the predetermined power output. Why can't it meet your requirements?"
Qin Tao looked at Aboutrika again: "During the construction, you arranged special personnel to supervise. All equipment installations have the signature of Mr. Aboutrika. His signature has legal effect.
Yes, all signed documents have been recorded, including the installation of the engine. Therefore, we do not have any fault."
Aboutrika's expression changed.
"Now, if you are messing around and insisting on asking for the original German diesel engine, you will completely break the contract on your own initiative. Therefore, our Mingzhou Group has the right to terminate this cooperation project. We will also refuse to deliver this submarine."
The Pyramid State has already paid the money, and only the final balance of 10 million is left, which will be paid when the submarine is driven away. Now, if they mess around, don't take the submarine.
What kind of compensation? The worst we can do is go to the International Court of Justice and file a lawsuit for three to five years, ten to eight years, but we, the Mingzhou Group, are not afraid.
Both Yinhab and Aboutrika were stunned.
They really don’t know the specific details about the contract. One of them supervised the manufacturing and the other received the goods. They were not the ones who negotiated the contract in the first place. They just received instructions from a certain military officer in the country and asked them to come to Dongfangren.
Trouble.
Wouldn't they be happy if they could get a compensation from the Orientals?
With this idea, they came to try, but they didn't expect that Mr. Qin would be more ruthless. We are not wrong. If you continue to do this, then we will detain the submarine and lose your 195 million US dollars in funds.
All in vain!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The two were dumbfounded, Qin Tao had already stood up: "You think clearly, whether to go to court with us or to apologize to us, I still have something to do.
Go out for a while. During this period, the submarine sea trial project will be stopped. You should think carefully about it."
Stop sea trials?
The domestic navy can’t wait to take this submarine back! Although it is not a nuclear submarine, it can lurk underwater for twenty days like a nuclear submarine!
Now, they messed up. Not only did they not succeed, they also annoyed Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin became angry, and the consequences were serious!
Qin Tao gave the two of them a slap in the face and went about their own business.
"Mr. Qin, why do they have the nerve to come and cause trouble for us?" Xu Zhengyang lamented what just happened while driving Qin Tao to the airport.
"There is a kind of people who are always very thick-skinned. When doing business with them, we must be very diligent." Qin Tao said, Qin Tao didn't care much about the claim he had just been asked to make.
It was exactly as he expected.
In the international arms business, the most shameless thing is the local chicken, who can take advantage of both sides and seize chestnuts from the fire. The Pyramid State is also ranked in the top ten, how could Qin Tao not be on guard.
International cooperation is what it is.
Xu Zhengyang nodded: "Mr. Qin, what are their intentions?"
"If the people behind the scenes are smart enough, they just want to lower the price." Qin Tao said: "The price of our exports is not expensive at all. Next, we will find a few more customers. If they don't want to
If we buy the second ship, we will directly sell it to other customers and see if they are in a hurry."
other customers?
"For example, several countries in South America have demand in this area. If there is an opportunity in the future, we will promote it."
Xu Zhengyang nodded.
Having purchased Varyag and Glory-class cruisers, Qin Tao has almost always been in China and has not been out for a long time. For a person who is used to running around outside, of course he has to find ways to open up more markets.
