If it was not because of the significance of Luo Hai, Lin Ziran would not inspect the Navy for the second time in just half a month, and personally participated in the service ceremony of the ship.
The ship represents a new naval strategic system. Even if it is not considered, it is only much stronger than the old warships in terms of performance.
In terms of protection, although it is not a comprehensive waterline armor belt, it also uses a bow -shaped dome armor, and rely on the coal compartment to strengthen the protection on the outer layer. This protection design is proposed by Lin Ziran.
It is found that the effect is amazing, and it is very suitable for some small and medium -consolted warships.
In terms of power, the most advanced steam units in Nanhai Prefecture can be used to run 16.5 verses. This speed is faster than many contemporary warships.
The entire warship looks like the number of defects is that the number of large -caliber cannons is relatively small.
However, there are fewer big -caliber guns for other traditional warships!
For example, at the beginning of the ship, when the ship was designed, it is expected that the front -loading cannon can be equipped, and the caliber of the main gun is prepared to install 170 millimeters. Of course, the number of artillery will be very large.
The flat wave number after changing the design halfway is limited by the original hull design, so it is also difficult for the ship to configure a large number of large -caliber guns in large quantities.
This is more than 6,000 tons of big guys, which is only one more than 2,500 tons of Luo Hai.
The main force gun on the Pingbo is actually a hundred and fifty millimeters of guns.
Although it is said that after the ship solved many technical problems a few months ago, after the official service of the technical problems, it reflected the more powerful combat effectiveness. Its strong armor brought it to it.
The power has made the maximum speed reach more than fifteen.
Its laid -loaded rear -loading cannon is also powerful.
However, this is still not Lin Ziran, nor is it the new generation of warships that the Navy of the Daheng Unified Army wants to see!
For this reason, when he first captured Luohai City, controlled Luohai's shipyard and took over the South China Sea State Fleet, Lin Ziran had already proposed some design indicators of the new warships for the Navy's military weapon department, and received unanimous support from the navy generals!
For example, installing a larger caliber artillery and destroying the current protection of the enemy warship with a huge artillery diameter.
At the same time, after installing a large -caliber artillery, the number of carrier artillery will decrease. In order to ensure the firepower, the artillery needs to have a larger firing angle, so it is necessary to rotate the cannon.
At the same time, simplify sail installations, and avoiding the firing world of sails to prevent artillery has also become a necessary choice.
In the end, as the accuracy of the rear -loading line was greatly improved, the effective range of the rear -loading cannon on the side of the army ran for ten kilometers.
But the Navy's side, Pingbo has been in service for a few months, and other warships have been installed for more than a year, but after so long training, in the simulation practical exercise, the movement is effective
The shooting distance can still not exceed 1,500 meters, or even at the distance of a kilometer of 1,500 meters. Even if it is aimed at the shooter with superb technology gunners, the hit rate is terrible, not even one percent.
As for the ordinary artillery player, it is only a hit rate that is infinitely close to zero.
It is not until a distance of about one kilometer that the hit rate is considerable.
However, the range of one kilometer of a kilometer is easy to be approached by the enemy ship during naval battles.
Once the two sides are close, people step forward directly to your face, even if you use dense globe guns to scum the flat wave.
Therefore, if you really want to play the power of the line -loading, you must improve the effective range in actual combat.
There are too many unstable factors on the ship's guns on the sea, because the ship moves with each other, and even the sea water is moving, and the ship will swing up and down, left and right.
, Especially when you want to carry out a long -distance shelling, it is difficult to ranging from the target without knowing the accurate distance, it is difficult to accurately aim at the shooting.
If you are alone, even if you are experienced and superb technology, how much you can't get at a long distance in this circumstances.
So what should I do?
Since relying on manpower simply, use the assistance of machinery and equipment!
The first urgent need to solve is the problem of fighting ranging!
No matter what, at least it is time to fight, and quickly and accurately test the distance from the enemy ship.
To this end, the navy has improved and cited the existing main navigation instruments, that is, the six -point instrument.
Through the six -point instrument, in fact, data such as the distance can be simply calculated, and the guiding gun can be shot. Although it is said that the operation of the six -point instrument is more complicated, the calculation process is slow, and it is suspected of delaying the war.
But this is the best solution that the Daheng Unified Army Navy can come up.
As for other methods, it is still in the laboratory. Ghost knows when it can be studied!
Previously, Daheng's unified army navy was used to use the six -point instrument for ranging, calibrating the shooting of the Yuanyuan.
On the Luo Hai, it is based on the improvement of the improvement of various designs. At the same time, the command mast is also designed.
The success of Luo Hai's successful completion and service, which represents the initial formation of the new strategic system of the Daheng Unified Army Navy.
In addition to Luo Hai, there are two cruisers in the same class in the back. It is expected to serve in the second ship in three months, and the third ship will be served in the third ship in five months.
At the same time, the Daheng Unified Army Navy has prepared to start a main armored ship based on the design and construction experience of Luo Hai, and the tonnage ran directly 8,000 tons.
Don't think that this tonnage is very large, and you are worried that the South China Sea state will not be built. The Luohai Shipyard has the ability to build 10,000 tons of warships.
The Navy is named after the country name, called the Kingdom of Ol.
Although this iron armored ship is still the Luohai Shipyard, it is also the first 10,000 -ton iron armored ship built in the entire Great Heng. The overall performance index cannot keep up with first -class standards.
However, regardless of hull design, protection, power is the top level of contemporary second -rate.
This level is basically the highest level that can be purchased by the Kingdom of Ol. It is enough for them. After all, it is a 10,000 -ton iron armor ship. It is also scary to pull it out.
In particular, the ship also replaced a large number of rear artillery, which occupied a great advantage in the firepower.
