Chapter 642 Installation of Hongqi-16B modern class
"This incident was caused by Sanzero Heavy Industry, and now our Sanzero Motors has been seriously affected!" Seiji Matsumoto, the person in charge of Sanzero Motors, was full of annoyance: "In Europe, our brake problem has been solved
It was solved satisfactorily, but in the east, it was intensified, and the Mingzhou Group must be behind it!"
San0 Heavy Industry couldn't compete with the Mingzhou Group in the field of shipbuilding, so it came up with a bad idea. As a result, everyone got the stolen goods. Now it's in trouble, and even San0 Automobile has been harmed.
Although the flaws have existed for a long time, why did they suddenly break out now? Moreover, the people of the island country will never think that it is their arrogance and differential treatment that led to this situation. In their eyes,
Come on, these are all done by the Mingzhou Group.
So, they are very annoyed.
"Everyone, now is not the time for us to hold people accountable. We need to find a solution to the problem. What should we do?" said Iwasaki Konosuke.
"This is caused by 30 Heavy Industry, and of course it has to be solved by 30 Heavy Industry!" Matsumoto Seiji continued: "Mingzhou Group is doing business, and they must look at profits. As long as Mingzhou Group is given some benefits, it will naturally
It can make Mr. Qin calm down."
"How is this possible? The person in charge of our Changqi Shipyard has committed suicide and has given an explanation to them. They are still chasing him. At this time, we must not be weak. We must persevere! We must
Be tough!" Zengshan Xiongshou insisted.
How can they bow to the Mingzhou Group? There is no such word in their dictionary!
"Report, the Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau of Eastern countries sent an ultimatum. The problems with our San0 vehicles are entirely our technical problems. We are required to take immediate measures and take full responsibility!" At this time, another news came.
came.
"Damn! How do they want us to be responsible?" Matsumoto said: "If we have to recall and replace it, how much will it cost?"
"In this case, let's give Dongfang some face and see if we can ease this conflict." Iwasaki Konosuke said.
"Okay, then let's take a step back." Matsumoto said: "We will inspect and replace those San0 off-road vehicles imported through normal trade channels."
In the East, there are a large number of San0 Pajero off-road vehicles, but a large part of them are imported through abnormal means. San0 Auto does not need to provide after-sales service for those vehicles, which can also save a lot of money.
"Now, I hope this matter can be resolved as soon as possible, and it will not have a worse impact on us at 30. Mr. Qin must be planning some big conspiracy behind the scenes, and we must be more vigilant." Iwasaki Konosuke continued.
"Damn it, if that Mr. Qin is abroad, we really want to send someone to kill him!" Zengshan Male Beast said angrily.
"Sneeze!" Qin Tao sneezed again.
"Mr. Qin, have you caught a cold?" Xu Zhengyang asked worriedly.
"Why am I catching a cold? Someone must be saying bad things about me behind my back, especially San0." Qin Tao said, "I guess they should put up a scarecrow next."
"Dad, those are all superstitions." Qin Haiyang said from the side: "Our teacher said that those superstitions are all lies."
"Well, okay, dad knows."
"Dad, remember what you promised me!"
"Of course."
Several people were talking and walked into the courtyard, just in time to see Wu Shengli walking out, with the secretary beside him carrying his suitcase.
"Dad, where are you going?"
"Mingzhou, you came back just in time. It's strange today that your call didn't get through."
"Mingzhou? What are you going to do?" Qin Tao was thinking rapidly in his mind. Now, it is not the 052C's turn to serve, and other warships are not worthy of the father-in-law's fanfare, etc.!
"Dad, is the nuclear submarine construction going to start? Why didn't I know?"
"It's not a nuclear submarine, it's a Sovremenny-class destroyer, it's already back!"
"Modern level?"
"Yes, the Pacific Fleet ship has returned, and the Northern Fleet ship is still on the way. After returning, it is time to enter your dock for repairs. This is an important moment, I have to go and take a look!"
Although it was not reserved by the navy, the bargains certainly tasted good. Seeing that the navy could add two more eight-thousand-ton warships, Wu Shengli was very excited and had to go over and join in the fun.
"By the way, you can go with me too."
"Yes." Qin Tao nodded and planned to follow his father-in-law. However, when he turned his head, he glanced at Qin Haiyang and suddenly thought of something.
"Dad, I promised Haiyang to tell him a bedtime story."
Qin Haiyang held his little hand, his eyes were very complicated and entangled, he moved his lips a few times, and finally said: "Dad, go ahead, you are doing big things, I can't be your dragnet."
Is your son so sensible?
"Our Haiyang is very sensible." Qin Tao's mother-in-law came out of the room and said with a smile: "He knows that his parents are doing big things, and they will never drag you down. Come, go back with grandma, tonight
How about grandma telling you a story when you go to bed?"
"Well, Haiyang, when dad comes back, I will definitely make up for you. When you have your winter vacation, you will go find dad. Wherever dad goes, you will go."
Zhao Xiu'e rolled her eyes at Qin Tao. If you can't do something, don't promise your child. If you don't promise anything, your child will have nothing to think about. Every time you promise, every time you break your promise, let your child go from hope to disappointment. That's the best thing.
It hurts the child's heart.
Qin Tao looked at his son's back, which was turning back three times, and his heart was suddenly stung: "Hayang, don't worry, dad will do what he said this time."
Qin Haiyang turned his head and glanced at Qin Tao, then continued to walk back and muttered: "Humph, you are a puppy when you lie to people."
Along the way, Qin Tao was not in a good mood. For a child, companionship is so important! When the child is on winter vacation, he will do nothing and take his wife and children to the island for vacation!
When they arrived in Mingzhou, it was already the morning of the next day. Several people got off the plane and went directly to the shipyard, and the destroyer Shenmi had already shown its outline on the sea in the distance.
The black smoke rising straight into the sky looks so clear. In this era, there are very few warships that emit black smoke when operating.
"It seems that the boiler also needs repair." Looking at the sea from a distance, Qin Tao said: "This is a big project. If we can avoid demolishing the superstructure, I think, like Lao Maozi, it would be better to cut the bottom of the ship for repairs.
Method."
"It sounds quite special." At this moment, a person watching on the dock spoke, and the voice was extremely familiar.
"Xiao Ling?" Qin Tao then lowered his head to see his wife. Before he knew it, how many days had he not seen her? He was obviously married, but he still lived the life of a monk. When Qin Tao saw his wife, he immediately felt
A special desire.
Zhao Ling's face was a little pale, which was obviously the result of long-term excessive fatigue. It was time for her to rest.
"Well, it's me." Zhao Ling smiled, not dissatisfied at all with Qin Tao calling her so intimate in public.
"Why are you here?"
"Isn't the modification of this warship mainly based on our Hongqi-16? So, I came over to help match it." Zhao Ling said: "I have been working here for a week, but you haven't come back yet.
"
"Matching? Do you still need to do this? The technical staff in our design office have already had experience." Qin Tao was a little curious.
"If it were the previous missile, of course there would be no need for me, but now that we have completed the research and development of new missiles, of course we have to match them."
New missile? Qin Tao originally thought it was a new launch method. The Hongqi-16 has already achieved thermal launch. Next, it is estimated that it will be a hot and cold launch? But if the Hongqi-9 is not loaded, there is no need for a hot and cold launch.
He didn't expect that it was actually a new missile!
"Is it an extended-range model?" Qin Tao asked.
Zhao Ling smiled: "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you. After our further improvements, the range of the Hongqi-16 has been increased to 70 kilometers. If these two modern-class ships are to be improved, it will be more convenient to equip them with this new type of missile."
A good choice. Moreover, after the modification is completed, the two modern-class ships already in service can also be modified according to this plan."
Is the extended range model out?
Qin Tao was also excited for a while: "Okay, if this kind of missile is available, then our modern class can also serve as a regional air defense ship. Since then, our Red Flag IX R&D team has become anxious!"
The early Hongqi-9 had a range of only 90 kilometers. This Hongqi-16 has already reached a range of 70 kilometers. It is almost catching up with the Hongqi-9!
"Yes, after this improvement, our modern class can also be used as a regional air defense ship, but it lacks a four-sided phased array radar." Wu Shengli said: "This modification is not cost-effective, so we should wait for a new build in the future."
Qin Tao didn't know the progress of Hongqi-16B, but Wu Shengli knew it. At this time, he looked at Qin Tao with a smile: "Taozi, do you know how the range is increased?"
This is not a problem for Qin Tao.
"On the one hand, it is to pack more fuel. Our new missile is definitely longer than the previous one. It is estimated to be about one meter longer."
"How did you know?" Now it was Zhao Ling's turn to be curious.
Of course it was his own memory, but Qin Tao didn't say that: "This is not simple. If the appearance hadn't changed, wouldn't it be necessary for you to come over and match it?"
"That's true, but what about the other side?"
"On the other hand, of course, it is to improve the propellant. The higher the energy density of the solid rocket motor, the farther the missile can fly."
The progress of missile technology does not happen overnight. At first, the range of this missile was only more than 20 kilometers. Later, the flight trajectory was optimized and the range was increased to 40 kilometers. However, they must have been making continuous progress in the past few years.
, so, considering the time, it’s time to change the projectile body and propellant.
In fact, this is not the final model change. In the later stage, there is also the Hongqi-16FE, which is incredible. It has a range of 160 kilometers. It can be used for air defense and anti-missile. It is said that it can also be inserted into the Hongqi-16A.
In the launch tube!
Of course, this kind of modification is not easy. It uses a newly designed integrated engine. The rims on the projectile are no longer there, and it becomes a polished rod bullet. Through various means, this range improvement was finally achieved.
If it improves to that level, it will probably take ten or eight years, right? How many more ten years and eight years does my wife have left? My wife's best years have been dedicated to Hongqi-16?
Qin Tao thought: "Xiao Ling, I remember you said that when this extended-range bomb is developed, you will be done with it, right?"
Zhao Ling glanced at Qin Tao with complicated eyes: "Yes, I once said that."
"That's good. You stay at the shipyard and help complete the matching. When the winter vacation comes, we will take Haiyang on vacation together. After that, if you want to be a good wife and mother, you can be my assistant. At the aerospace institute, you can
I will handle the suspension procedure for you."
Zhao Ling's lips moved a few times, trying to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything and just nodded.
"Isn't it shocking that this warship can still float on the water?" At this moment, someone started talking again.
The former backbone of the Pacific Fleet, the USS Shenmi destroyer was getting closer and closer. Since there were already two modern-class destroyers in the country, the navy's crew drove it back without the help of Lao Maozi's crew. At this time, this destroyer
The warship appeared in front of everyone, which still made everyone feel a little emotional.
This is simply like a pile of scrap metal that has been exposed to the weather and rusted at the recycling station.
"Lao Maozi's warship is just like this. Don't look at the rust on the outside. After polishing, the inside is still bright. The Varyag was even more rusty than this!" Someone else retorted.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As everyone was discussing, the Shenmi was getting closer and closer, and the status of the hull could be seen more clearly.
"Then what's going on on both sides of the bridge? It's just like there was a fire!"
"It must have been smoked when launching Sunburn missiles. Speaking of which, this warship is not bad. It actually has the opportunity to launch missiles!"
While everyone was talking about it, the huge hull finally moved into the dock. This was an expansion of the original dock of Mingzhou Shipyard. It was 10,000 tons and was specially used for the repair of destroyers and frigates, so as not to occupy the hundreds of thousands of tons.
Super dock.
The dock began to pump water and set up scaffolding, and the construction was in order. An hour later, the warship entered the repair state from sailing state.
"Let's go up and have a look." Qin Tao said.
Now that Wu Shengli and others are here, of course they can't just watch from a distance, they have to stand up.
Following the erected scaffolding, everyone went directly to the front deck of the Shenmi. After passing the twin 130mm naval guns, everyone continued to walk to the back. On the second deck was the Schkili system with a single-arm launcher.
.
But... looking at the mess above, Qin Tao couldn't help but sigh: "Is this because Lao Maozi knew we were going to modify it, so he deliberately took it down and sold it as junk?"
Not only the launcher, but also the loading system under the launcher has disappeared.
"The report was already like this when we received it in the past." The captain who performed this mission said, feeling a little uneasy in his heart. What if the leader blamed it?
Fortunately, no one blamed him.
"It's okay. We have this expectation. If we dismantle it, it will save us the labor cost of modification." Qin Tao said: "Is the electronic equipment in the bridge still intact?"
"The outer shell is intact, but I don't know what's going on inside. We've tried it, and most of it has failed."
It seems that Lao Maozi must have dismantled the valuable things inside and sold them!
Of course this was not done by Nikolai. Nikolai would definitely issue an order in Moscow, asking the Pacific Fleet to preserve this warship and not destroy it. However, just like Lao Maozi, no one will listen to the words of his superiors and can dismantle it.
I came down to exchange for drinks, so of course I had to dismantle it.
"Then we will use our own equipment instead, ours is more advanced." Qin Tao said.
However, when he walked into the bridge and saw the missing rudder, which could only be replaced with a wrench, Qin Tao couldn't bear it anymore: "No, they went too far, I have to give Nico
Call me! He has to give us some compensation, and he even lost the steering wheel! That thing is made of wood, could it be taken down to chop wood for the fire?"
This destroyer, Lao Maozi originally planned to seal it and wait for it to be activated at any time in the future. But now, looking at the situation, it is impossible to reactivate it. As long as it is sealed, it will be dismantled and sold for parts.
If this were brought to China, he would be arrested and sentenced directly, but at Lao Maozi's side, no one would care about it.
"That's fine. We have to repair it anyway, so we might as well replace it with new ones. Fortunately, I don't have the ability to dismantle the entire warship and sell it for scrap." Wu Shengli could only say with a wry smile.
"No ability? Dad, Er Mao has done this before!" Qin Tao said: "Er Mao's captain has not received wages for several years, so he directly sold the scrapped pieces of the ship. This is not a problem for the soldiers, but a problem for the country.
ah."
"Yes, it is their tragedy that they do not have a strong country." Wu Shengli also nodded.
"Yes, it is their sorrow, but for us, it is better now."
If they hadn't broken the pot, would we have been able to obtain this kind of warship? In the era of the Red Empire, if Lao Maozi wanted to transform the floating nuclear power plant, would he still need the help of the Mingzhou Group?
Everyone had emotions in their hearts.
After leaving the bridge, we continued back and looked at the dilapidated warship. The first step was to remove the rust and conduct a thorough inspection to determine how many parts of the warship needed to be replaced.
In this way, until the end, everyone has gradually adapted to it. No matter what they see being dismantled, there is no need to be surprised.
"The budget is 50% higher, otherwise this warship cannot be renovated." Qin Tao made a rough estimate: "The construction period may also be extended."
"Yes, Lao Maozi has gone too far." Wu Shengli also sighed: "We can issue a few more issues of national defense lottery, so that the funds for modification should be collected."
After saying that, Wu Shengli looked at the outfitting dock: "Now that we are here, let's go there and have a look. I don't know why, but looking at the two warships together gives me a wrong feeling, as if they are two
The times are the same.”
"These are two eras." Qin Tao said: "If our navy has money, it is better to invest in continuing to build the 052C. It is the future of our navy."
Everyone was talking and heading towards the outfitting dock.
When 052C was launched, a lot of equipment had already been installed, and the workload in the outfitting stage was very small. Therefore, when a few people walked up, they saw an almost complete warship.
The hull is painted with low-visibility paint, everything is brand new, and the stealth shape is full of modernity.
The four-sided phased array radar around the bridge is the most dazzling equipment of the entire warship. As the second warship in the world equipped with a four-sided phased array radar and long-range air defense missiles, No. 168 has attracted worldwide attention.
"At present, the outfitting has entered the final stage. We expect to start sea trials at the end of the year. If there are no major problems with the equipment, it will be delivered to the Navy next year." Zhou Yongfei, who is in charge of the construction of this warship, looked at the crowd.
The leader came over and introduced enthusiastically.
"Well, the progress is almost equal to that of 052B." Wu Shengli nodded: "At that time, we can have a sea competition to determine which of the two warships is more suitable."
"The competition is very unfair to them!" Qin Tao sighed: "We will feel like bullying others."
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! "Don't brag. Maybe that kind of warship is more cost-effective. Will our navy continue to place orders for that kind of warship?" Wu Shengli glanced at Qin Tao.
, said with a smile.
"That's impossible. Unless the navy doesn't want to go to blue water, otherwise, that kind of useless product cannot meet the needs of the navy." At this time, everyone had already walked to the vertical launcher in front, and Qin Tao continued: "Now
, now that our Hongqi-16B has been successfully developed, then our Aegis warships can also be upgraded."
"upgrade?"
"Yes, dad, currently, our 052C can only be equipped with nine types of missiles, and it still has weaknesses in air defense. Now that our Hongqi-16B has been released, we might as well consider whether we can mix and install some Hongqi-16Bs.
, in this way, you will have more choices during air defense operations.”
Although there is no universal hot and cold vertical launch system with a diameter of 850 mm, considering the current launch device of Hongqi-9, there is no problem in inserting two Hongqi-16Bs.
Only Hongqijiu is still a little inconvenient during combat. After all, Hongqijiu is a regional air defense missile with a long range and a large size. When it deals with close-range targets, its response is not that fast and it is also very wasteful.
Americans will also encounter this problem. Their Standard-2 is very advanced, but it is blind when dealing with low-altitude and close-range targets. Therefore, their MK41 launch unit must be mixed with a part of the Sea Sparrow, otherwise the Standard-2 will not be able to respond once
Come on, only Phalanx is left.
"Well, this is a good idea. It can also greatly increase the number of missiles that can be carried. However, the guidance method of the Hongqi-16B is different from that of the Hongqi-9, which means that more electronic equipment is needed, and the displacement of this kind of warship needs to be expanded.
, it’s too troublesome to change it.”
Hongqi-9 is a C-band target illumination radar, while Hongqi-16 is an X-band radar. The two are incompatible.
"Perhaps, we can modify the guidance head of Hongqi-16?" Zhao Ling said.
Qin Tao was shocked. What happened to him that he was looking for a job for his wife again?
