Super military empire

"More technicians? I don't know what it is. If it is an expert level, it is impossible. If it is an ordinary technical force, it is not a problem." Liu Suxue frowned.

The other party agreed to the price of 3 billion U.S. dollars, which was a very pleasant decision, but now there are additional conditions.

You Chengfeng immediately said, “The hundreds of technicians you mentioned before are all related to the aviation industry, and we are indeed very lacking in this regard. However, our lack of personnel in naval equipment is even more serious. Ukraine has large Soviet warships. The obvious advantage of the manufacturing base, their aircraft carriers are all manufactured in the Black Sea shipyard in Ukraine, as well as some large cruisers..."

"Design personnel for naval equipment? Among these hundreds of technical personnel, including designers of some large naval surface ships, the number is not too much, but they are all core and key technical personnel..." Liu Suxue immediately relaxed. Frowned.

To hire technical personnel from Ukraine, it is natural to have the technical personnel most lacking in China.

Liu Yijiu’s previous layout was for Ukrainian technical personnel and technical equipment. Similarly, key technical materials are indispensable.

The Black Sea Shipyard can be said to be completely inseparable from the development of Chinese aircraft carriers.

In the world where Liu Yijiu was once, China’s aircraft carrier bought a Varyag aircraft carrier from Ukraine at a scrap price, with all its weapons, equipment and systems removed, and obtained dozens of tons of aircraft carrier design drawings. Initiated the development of China's aircraft carrier. Eventually, the Varyag became the Liaoning ship. At the same time, China's self-made aircraft carrier basically adopted some related technologies on the Varyag.

Aircraft carrier, this is the top priority!

"Too few personnel is simply not enough. We need more large ship designers. Including power design, etc..."

"Ukraine’s Black Sea Shipyard and other shipyards, because they are one of the few large-scale surface warship production units in the Soviet Union, and they are the largest, they pay close attention to personnel. At the same time, because this shipyard is not in Russia The entire shipyard is not responsible for the overall design and manufacturing. The core components are designed and manufactured here, but the spare parts and technical information are indeed scattered in hundreds of machinery manufacturing units in the other 15 Soviet republics!" Liu Suxue explained patiently With.

It's not that he doesn't want to get more people, but to get a full set, it's really not easy.

Devotion and gain will be unsatisfactory.

Just a Ukraine, for him, it is already very difficult, the layout of more than ten years has today.

"What about the power system? These are Ukraine. We don't need aircraft carrier-related technology and personnel, but we cannot lack technical personnel for the design and manufacture of large-scale marine power. At least hundreds of people are needed..." Li Xiangyang also said."These technicians will be regarded as an addition to this transaction!"

He did not say that there is an urgent need for large-scale marine power systems in China. The domestically produced 052 destroyers and the 055 large-scale drive by the Ninth Academy are also lacking conventional power systems.

No one can deny this.

The power system on 051 is already old.

The power system on the large surface ships of the Soviet Union is still a bit worse than the Western countries headed by the United States, but it is not much.

The Soviet Union’s main development direction in the past was nuclear submarines. Large surface ships have never paid attention to them. However, because they have a technical background far exceeding China and can manufacture large destroyers and tens of thousands of tons of cruisers, they have such a foundation. When designing a larger aircraft carrier, it is no longer a problem.

The Soviet aircraft carrier, from design to launch, only took less than 7 years!

The Kirov guided missile cruiser has become the pinnacle of cruisers in the world.

"Really this is Chinese cabbage on the market?" Liu Suxue frowned and looked at Li Xiangyang, then cast his eyes on Long Yaohua.

Long Yaohua was thinking about whether to persuade Liu Suxue, and Li Xiangyang's words were really annoying.

Now that Liu Suxue’s eyes are cast, he can only helplessly explain, “Our domestic situation, you should know some. Even the whole world knows that the industrial foundation is weak and the technical background is not deep. No matter what, It's not very good, everything is built from scratch...The navy, land and air forces are equipped, and there is nothing that can be obtained. Now that Mr. Liu can help change the situation in China..."

"President Long, these words are a bit arrogant. The Dragon Guard tanks of your country are among the first-class in the world. No matter whether it is attack power or defense power, it will not be worse than any tank... Ten, J-11, these two fighters are also the world's advanced fighters... It is not possible to manufacture such tanks and fighters without a weak industrial foundation and a lack of deep technical background." Obviously, Long Yaohua said this. It's Tibetan."More importantly, there are large passenger planes such as Yunshi and the world's top strategic missiles such as Dongfeng-5. These things cannot be handled by countries with poor industries!"

Liu Suxue knew that Long Yaohua knew his own situation.

He said this at this time, obviously to tell the two people next to him.

He said with a smile immediately.

The achievements China has made in the field of military technology over the years have been eye-catching.

The aviation industry is originally an important manifestation of a country's industrial level and comprehensive national strength.

China can say that in the past ten years, the aviation industry has developed to a certain level, and the worst is a breakthrough.

In terms of naval vessels, it is a fact that China cannot manufacture large warships above 10,000 tons. This is an indisputable fact.

"But we don't have any advanced naval surface ships. At present, the main naval ship is the Luda-class destroyer..." Long Yaohua is not afraid of revealing his own ugliness, and said lonely, "So, we need technicians in this area."

"For this matter, we can only do our best!" Faced with such a situation, Liu Suxue can only answer to do our best."If there is a way, we will provide more large naval ship designers and manufacturing-related technical personnel. And we will arrange for them to enter China through various channels."

"Then thank you in advance." Long Yaohua was very satisfied with Liu Suxue's answer.

It was so easy for the two to negotiate, but it made Li Xiangyang and You Chengfeng a little confused.

The two sides conducted a lot of detailed discussions. Even Li Xiangyang and You Chengfeng both said that the Chinese military will do its best to deploy more aerial tankers to cooperate with future operations.

Many detailed issues have become more secure under the joint discussion between the two parties.

No one discussed the route to fly back, because this China can’t intervene. Even if a strategic bomber like the Tu-160 White Swan is acquired, it will not be announced to the world. The Chinese Air Force has secret equipment and there will be no The news will be announced.

Unless, China can imitate it.

Even if it is forced to announce to the public, this will be said to be the success of China's imitation, and nothing else!

Only in this way will China bear less international pressure and make China's defense cause more stable.

After coming down, Liu Suxue met with Liu Yijiu again before leaving, "What is the main lack of ships? At present, China's national strength and technical level, it is too unrealistic to build an aircraft carrier. An aircraft carrier costs too much. At the same time, maintenance and other costs are also very staggering. I don’t believe that China will restart the aircraft carrier program at this time."

Liu Suxue did not ask Long Yaohua and others about these circumstances.

Only by communicating with Liu Yijiu and the two people can there be no pressure at all, let alone detours.

Liu Yijiu sighed, "In terms of warship design, the Admiralty has been accelerating the design and manufacturing progress of the Type 052 guided missile destroyer since the early 1980s. However, it faces too many technical problems and the introduction of foreign technology has been seriously hindered. , Long-range prediction radar, electronic system, power system and other problems need to be solved one by one. The biggest problem facing now is the power system. Similarly, this power system also has a great impact on us. We have nuclear in our hands. The power system. The Iowa class currently being transformed uses the nuclear power system in our mountain. Like the power system used in nuclear submarines, the power is higher, but conventional power is not enough. This also severely limits the development of the 055 project."

"In this way, our demand for the navy's technology even exceeds the air force's demand for technology?" Liu Suxue really does not understand these domestic conditions.

For a long time, he only paid attention to the technological development of the Ninth Academy.

But never thought that China is really not too optimistic in this regard.

"Yes. This is the problem of poor foundation, and because of this reason, we have to invest in the research and development of naval equipment at this time. The financial pressure of the Ninth Academy is basically because of the investment. For the navy, a 10,000-ton drive is absolutely necessary. For the aircraft carrier, we can temporarily ignore it, but we also need to make a good technical reserve. When the country's economic strength develops, the development of aircraft carriers is certain!" Liu Yi Nine nodded, "If possible, I really hope to evacuate the technical team of the Black Sea Shipyard. We can solve the large-scale shipbuilding equipment by ourselves, but the technical strength in design and the design experience of those technicians are not short. It can be resolved within time."

Liu Yijiu licked his lips and said eagerly.
