Super military empire

"What do you mean, our 055 project is also a wrong project?" The old man frowned and asked Liu Yijiu.

The 055 project has a relatively large investment, and the top leaders of the Republic have also given high hopes.

The top military leaders now consider whether to increase investment in the 055 project or to increase the investment in the 052 project.

On this point, the above has always been without any independent opinions.

Liu Yijiu now put forward his own views on this matter, but the old man and others hope to hear his views, maybe this kid has any different views.After all, from the beginning of the Ninth Institute to the present, in ten years, no project has failed.

"The 055 project is inherently unsustainable. Unless we can agree to increase the tonnage, under our current industrial base, the technical conditions are insufficient. Even if the UK transfers the related technology of the 42 destroyer to us, I would like to ask you, Such a small ship needs to be equipped with so much equipment. How can it be reasonably designed?"

"If we increase the tonnage and use our current accumulation of technology, Comrade Xiao Liu, do you think we can break through the 10,000-ton warship’s hull structure design? So far, we have not even broken through four thousand tons..." Johnson has now It was not that day that only Wu Xia Amon, various situations, with his efforts, learned a lot."If we want to engage in technology, we must take our situation into consideration."

All the other big guys nodded their heads when they heard what he said. What this guy said was true and conformed to the current situation in China.

"Yes, since I am unwilling to increase the tonnage, this project is even more hopeless. Let’s not talk about anything else. Only in the technical task book issued in 1976, it was clearly stated that the 055 ship could be adapted to the depolarization zone. In addition, any sea area and any sea conditions can be safely navigated. The other technical requirements require that the 055 ship meets the tactical and technical requirements while also taking into account the sea resistance. It is just that the long-range radar is installed. We have analyzed it earlier. This will increase the weight of the upper layer of the warship a lot. The overhead radar antenna causes the ship’s transverse wind moment to increase sharply. In the event of a sea storm, the only result is the ship capsize..." Liu Yijiu said very seriously. The big guys listened very seriously.

Even the young man in front of him is not an expert in naval equipment at all.

This statement was also put forward by some people, but they are those who oppose the continuation of the 055 project, so naturally they have little credibility.

Liu Yijiu has a relatively neutral status. In addition to the 531 project accepted by the Ninth Academy, the other naval projects are only nuclear submarines involving some key technologies.

"Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible to meet the demanding sea resistance capabilities. The only way is to reduce the size and weight of the radar to achieve the stability of the entire ship, which cannot meet the tactical performance indicators. This is only electronic The system, in other aspects, the power system, the hull structure, etc., face the same situation as the electronic system..." Liu Yijiu unceremoniously pointed out the serious problems faced by the 055 ship at this time.

There is simply no way to get it out at this time.

A 6,000-ton hull, a Type 518 long-range early warning radar under the fortress, a three-dimensional air search radar further developed from Type 381A, an air defense missile launch control radar, an integrated communication system, an anti-submarine launch control system, etc., and a shipboard combat system The shipboard weapon system is equipped with anti-ship missiles and medium-caliber naval guns as anti-surface weapons. The air defense includes anti-aircraft missiles and anti-aircraft artillery. The anti-submarine aspect includes guided anti-submarine torpedoes, rub deep bombs and anti-submarine helicopters. Both the sea and the submarine have formed a multi-level attack and defense system.

This is exactly the combat capability of the old Maozi Kirov-class guided missile cruiser.

However, the Kirov class can plug so many systems, with a total tonnage of 19,000 tons.

What is the tonnage of the Republic’s 055 ship?

Not more than 6000 tons!

In such a small tonnage, the fortress has so many weapons, and even a complete set of combat fire control systems, three-dimensional air defense radars, air defense missiles, anti-submarine helicopters, anti-submarine torpedoes and even radar-guided fully automatic naval guns, etc. It is impossible for China, even the United States and the Soviet Union to complete such a design!

This is a typical Great Leap/Jin style!

"In that case, we don't have to go on this project at all?" The old man sighed helplessly.

The Republic has no warships!

There is no large warship manufacturing capability.

"In fact, we can now fully tackle the 052 project. Such a destroyer, functional positioning and tactical performance, are more in line with our development. The 055 ship can be dismounted if the technical requirements are not modified." Liu Yijiu Gritted his teeth and said.

"Our aircraft carrier has been dismounted. Under the current circumstances, the Navy has no large warships at all!" Bai Meng is the one who most does not want the 055 to dismount.

In other countries, the navy has countless warships to choose from.

But China has no choice. The current battleship is the 051 ship with a tonnage of less than 4000!

"We don't need such a warship. This is a waste of money! If we say we need it, what we need more is a large destroyer over 10,000 tons!" Daxue, this is what the Chinese Navy needs most.

There is no aircraft carrier, but it must have a comprehensive large destroyer capable of navigating oceans, navigating in various sea areas and various sea conditions, and having a relatively long-term maritime self-sustaining capability.

In the 21st century, the Republic only restarted the 055 project, but the displacement directly doubled to 12,000 tons.

The basic industrial capacity of the Republic at that time far exceeded what is unknown now.

"Ten thousand tons!" Except for the old man and others, the other high-ranking military members took a breath.

If 10,000 tons can be produced, will the 055 tonnage be so small?

"We don't have enough technical strength to manufacture 10,000-ton warships." This is something everyone must admit.

"It didn't say that we want to manufacture now, and wait until later to manufacture. Now we can work hard in this direction. We will definitely have a 10,000-ton big drive in the future. Even if it is not used to match other larger warships, it is just one Ships can also perform ocean missions!" Liu Yijiu said with a grin.

A 10,000-ton drive, that is what any country’s navy should have.

"Didn't you say that 055 should be dismissed at first?" Long Yaohua and others did not understand Liu Yijiu's true purpose.

At the beginning, the kid was still saying that this project was not going to work, but now he was talking about building a 10,000-ton destroyer.

"It is true that 055 must be dismissed, because this project is not very feasible at all. At least, in the next 50 years, we will not be able to achieve this kind of design. But if we want to have such a function, we must have Owning a large destroyer with a larger tonnage. This can also be regarded as the follow-up project of the two battleship transformation plan we bought from the United States!" Liu Yijiu’s thinking jumping ability is obviously something that is not easy for the big men to accept. .

In this way, it is easy to jump the topic again to the renovation project of the Iowa-class battleship bought from the United States.

"Director Liu, let's not talk about this battleship, we can still communicate happily, you said that this battleship, the transformation plan has not been put into action!" Bai Meng said that it was unhappy.

At first he suggested that the two battleships should belong to the Navy. Although the main guns were shamelessly dismantled by the Americans, the large number of secondary guns was enough to be used as capital ships.

The huge tonnage is fully capable of mounting more missiles on the deck of the battleship.

The problem is that the two battleships have already returned. Liu Yijiu didn't tell them the transformation plan at all, or even let the Admiralty intervene!

"Two Iowa-class battleships, this is the best opportunity for us to learn. Whether it’s the hull structure or subsequent modifications, we have accumulated experience. The price of the two hulls is not high, although the Americans also learned from it. The main system was disassembled. Most of the technology was decades ago, but this is what we still lack!" Liu Yijiu said very clearly that the hulls of these two battleships were designed to make China The shipbuilding industry can accumulate technology for manufacturing large warships.

"Your goal is to transform both of them into guided missile battleships. Is it for us to build a large guided missile destroyer or something like the Soviet Kirov-class guided missile cruiser?" Qi Hao somewhat understood Liu Yijiu's thoughts.

No wonder this kid said from the beginning that a large destroyer over 10,000 tons must be built.

"We don't have enough funds to study the 10,000-ton class destroyer!" Long Yaohua looked at Liu Yijiu with a serious face.

The attitude is very clear. If you want to do it, you have to pay.

Liu Yijiu gave him a glance, "Our Ninth Academy is responsible for this matter!"

"Didn't the Ninth Court say that there is no money? Didn't you say not to interfere in naval equipment?" Johnson did not understand what Liu Yijiu meant, and asked Liu Yijiu suspiciously.

The old man and the others didn't say anything, but looked at Liu Yijiu's eyes and became amused.

No wonder this kid opposed the 055 project at the beginning, and then proposed a modification plan, requiring a 10,000-ton large destroyer. This is the purpose!

The two battleships brought back from the United States are the preliminary works of this plan.

Once China can complete the transformation of these two battleships and manufacture large-scale guided missile destroyers of 10,000 tons, it will not be a problem.

"Chief, we can provide money, but we don't have anyone. 701 is still working on the 053 class guided missile frigate!"

"You are turning a corner!" The old man's face was full of smiles.

Liu Yijiu was noncommittal.

Johnson and others frowned.

"Director Liu, I don't know how many people you need. The people in the Admiralty Department are already in short supply!" Bai Meng knew that Liu Yijiu was deliberate and wanted by no means a few."Furthermore, it is enough that we currently have a guided missile destroyer project in China. There is no need to build so many 10,000-ton-class warships. Should we not wait until the 052 project is completed? This will concentrate manpower and material resources and see the results as soon as possible. ..."

Bai Meng is not a fool, Liu Yijiu put forward such a plan, he must have his ideas.

There is no surplus for the landlords.

If this is done in accordance with Liu Yijiu, it is very likely that personnel will be transferred from the 052 project.

This is quite detrimental to the development of the entire navy.

"I want the relevant personnel of the 055 project. The 052 project is currently imminent. Our navy needs an advanced new type of destroyer. The 051 level is obviously not suitable." Liu Yijiu's words dispelled Bai Meng's concerns. He made it clear Tell this Secretary of the Navy who doesn't have much presence, I won't touch your 052 project, and I will even help you.

"Can the Ninth Academy's finances be affordable? The conversion of two battleships requires tens of billions of dollars!" Bai Meng is really worried about Liu Yijiu's finances.

To transform these two battleships into guided missile battleships, the cost required is definitely a terrifying figure.

There are more than 400 missiles of various types on Kirov. How much does it take to fill the Iowa-class battleship with missiles?

Eight hundred?

A thousand?

even more!

How much does the Republic have to produce to fill these two strategic missile ships?

Not to mention the missiles, and the various systems on the warships, the funding required is even more unimaginable.We will not discuss the possibility of technical realization yet.

Liu Yijiu grinned. He also knew that if these two battleships were all transformed into guided missile battleships, the funds needed would collapse the Ninth Academy's finances and would require too many missiles.This will have a serious impact on the entire international situation.

However, the future situation in the South China Sea and the situation in the East China Sea after the kid passed the "Security Act" all make China necessary to have such a deterrent!

"We can not build aircraft carriers, but we cannot but have a maritime arsenal that threatens other countries!"

He positioned the guided missile battleship as a maritime arsenal!

Indeed, such a battleship, as long as it is filled with missiles, is completely a mobile maritime arsenal.

"That's your Ninth Institute's business, let's not intervene! You want the 055 project, and you can give it to you! However, Comrade Xiao Liu, you have to consider the domestic situation and not drag down other projects." Long Yaohua looked at it. Father, the latter nodded, and immediately agreed to Liu Yijiu's request.

From the beginning, Liu Yijiu didn't say too eagerly, this kid is now getting more and more cunning.

"Of course. Although the transformation of these two battleships requires a huge amount of money, it is not all invested in one year. Moreover, as long as we can make the functions perfect, we don't necessarily have to fill the battleship with missiles!" Liu Yijiu grinned. Said.

As long as it is transformed, without the support of absolute intelligence, who dares to bet whether the missile library of this guided missile battleship is fully filled?
