Chapter 1567 Electromagnetic ejection on a conventionally powered aircraft carrier?

(I wish you all a happy new year! Happy family, everything will come to me, and everything will come to you.)

According to Liu Yijiu's idea, all current weapon systems in the future will form a complete and inseparable three-dimensional defense network from the ground to the sky to outer space.That is China's future homeland defense system.

In outer space, set up a stationary space station in a suitable orbit, keep the space station in the center of Chinese territory at all times, and then install a few laser cannons and electromagnetic railguns to defend against the enemy’s strategic missiles against China. Go outside the real defense against the enemy.

Similarly, it must have the ability to deter attacks.

This is another direction.

The space station is built as a docking platform for aerospace fighters. Once there is a war, the fighters docked at the space station can directly change their orbits from space and quickly strike any place on the earth from space.

There is no defense at all.

This is much lower than the cost of Dongfeng Express, which has a mission.

Of course, the initial construction requires too much funding, and a huge technical system is needed to support it.China itself is not the most technologically powerful country in the world, and even the United States and the Soviet Union, which are the world's first echelon, are far away.

"What's more, the aircraft carrier construction plan we have started requires electromagnetic ejection technology. Although this is a different technology, the basic principles are the same." Liu Yijiu once again told everyone the principle of not giving up the research on electromagnetic railguns. .

For the 60,000-ton aircraft carrier plan, the high-levels in the base are all aware of it, and the core technical personnel also know it. After all, the technology required involves too many fields.

Various materials, manufacturing technologies, various supporting radar devices, and even communication command systems are closely related to all scientific research systems in the country.

The construction of aircraft carriers must have a complete industrial system.

Britain and France cannot build larger and more advanced aircraft carriers, and even many technologies have to be obtained from the United States or the United Kingdom.Our own country cannot supply it.

There are only three complete industrial systems in this world, the Soviet Union, the United States, and China.

The Soviet Union disintegrated, the huge empire fell apart, and there was no complete industrial system. Then, after entering the 21st century, Lao Maozi did not purchase new large warships or several thousand tons of new destroyers for decades. Provide them with a power system that cannot be built.

Where is the domineering power of the world's first empire?

The United States, in order to save money, lost a lot of technical fields to Britain, France and even Germany during the Cold War. After entering the 21st and 1930s, many European countries turned against the water and stopped following the United States. This strength is getting worse and worse, but the eldest brother who keeps pitting them has mixed up, and they have united to form an alliance, so that the American imperialism can only be painful in certain fields, and eventually they have to build their industrial system from scratch.

Because China has a complete industrial system, and has continued to improve and upgrade the domestic industrial system since the old man came to power in the process of reform and opening up, it has the ability to build aircraft carriers after entering the 21st century. Immediately after the launch of the ln ship, construction of two ships was started at the same time, both for experiments.

The first one was built by itself and still took off with the ln ship’s skid jump, and the second was equipped with a steam catapult. Then, it was seriously affected by electromagnetic catapult technology. Even the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier had to wait. In the 1930s, when the electromagnetic railgun was applied to warships on a small scale, mature electromagnetic ejection technology was really used.

Liu Yijiu didn't want to wait.

The principle of electromagnetic ejection technology and the technology of electromagnetic railgun is really not too different.

Anyway, the object is ejected by electromagnetic force.

Of course, the ejection technology used on the aircraft carrier cannot apply electromagnetic force to the carrier aircraft, otherwise serious problems will occur.

"Are you going to launch an electromagnetic catapult on the aircraft carrier? Didn't it mean that it was just a ski jump at the beginning?" Wang Shunyi and others found Liu Yijiu, dissatisfied with Geology and asked, "Little Jiu'er, can we follow the plan? If all The projects are all messing around like you, we keep changing, what's the difference between this and before?"

"Yes, it's mainly due to our funding. You don't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt are expensive!" Xu Zhifei, the chief financial officer of the Ninth Academy, was able to wring water out of his face.

Liu Yijiu changed the project into whatever he thought of, or, at the beginning, he knew clearly that the management committee would not agree to his plan, so he lowered the requirements, and when it got started, he changed the plan.

This kind of thing has been particularly noticeable in recent years.

In the past, there were not many projects and the problem was not very big. Anyway, their funds are sufficient.

And now, it doesn't work.

There are too many projects, and most of them are gold swallowing behemoths. For example, manned spaceflight projects and the current aircraft carrier projects. Which one has to prepare a hundred billion dollars in funding?

"Everyone, what's the matter? When did I say that the aircraft carrier will be launched by electromagnetic ejection?" Liu Yijiu asked in surprise.

"Did you not say this during a meeting with the electromagnetic railgun project?" Wang Shunyi was also a little surprised.

It's impossible for this kid to say no to admit it, right?

Liu Yijiu grinned, "When they were studying electromagnetic weapons, their enthusiasm was hit by huge difficulties. This is to cheer them up. Besides, our first aircraft carrier, although it has 60,000 tons , But the entire system, including carrier-based aircraft, as well as missiles for defense, and even offensive missile systems, need to be integrated. Electromagnetic ejection up, conventional power supply energy can be sufficient?"

Think about this, it's the same.

Conventional power generally uses steam ejection technology, and many nuclear-powered aircraft carriers use steam ejection.

"You don't want to switch from conventional power to nuclear power at the critical moment of the project, do you?" Obviously, Director Liu's credibility in this regard has become a little worse.

The few people who came to him stared at him in disbelief.

"No!" Liu Yijiu was a little bit eager to cry without tears, "Is it that I have no credibility?"

Obviously, several old men nodded their heads at the same time and had a poorly written expression on their faces, which seriously doubted Liu Yijiu.

He has a lot of bad records.

"Furthermore, we have no technology for large conventionally powered steam engines. It is very difficult to make breakthroughs. And we have nuclear power system technology in our hands, even the transformation of Iowa-class battleships, which use nuclear power technology. Tell me how do we trust you?" Wang Yueshan expressed the doubts in their hearts.

The Ninth Academy started with nuclear power plants, and then built nuclear power systems for submarines in underground bases. These power systems were applied to submarines under construction and large warships being transformed.

The entire country does not have high-power steam turbines and gas turbines. Liu Yijiu chose conventional power on a 60,000-ton aircraft carrier. How can he not doubt his motives?

The cost of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers is very high, each of which is billions of dollars, and future maintenance costs will be higher.

The Management Committee of the Ninth Academy has already penetrated into the entire aviation system, and when manned space projects and even lunar exploration projects are underway, it is impossible to agree.

Once this project is launched, it is likely that their funding chain will break.

The state will not invest money in the Ninth Court, and even if it does, the Ninth Court will not agree.

The use of national financial allocations will interfere with the projects of the Ninth Academy.

The right of independent project establishment and independent management will gradually be supervised in the process of state financial appropriation. After all, the state’s money must be supervised, and every transaction must have a clear and reliable record, unless like other units do not care. The money is misappropriated or added to some costs indiscriminately.

The Ninth Academy never did such a thing.

"Electromagnetic ejection technology really must be developed. But it will not and cannot be installed on the first aircraft carrier. Everyone should be aware of the biggest role of our Ninth Academy. What domestic technology projects are blank, we are heading in what direction. Efforts, we don't necessarily need this result, but we need to have an influence on the entire country's science and technology system..." Liu Yijiu said helplessly."We are engaged in aircraft carriers, and we have funds on hand, which naturally requires us to research, and other naval units are already lacking in funding. How can they do research when they are of no use?"

"If this is the case, there is no problem." Liu Yijiu's answer gave everyone a sigh of relief.

"As for conventional power, for the same reason, our ordinary large warships do not have a suitable power system at all. This is the problem that our 055 project is currently encountering. If the power system cannot be solved, our warships are no more advanced. A target!"

"This project will really not change. The domestic foundation is still too poor, and we don't have any technical reserves. Otherwise, we won't find a way to return from the Soviet aircraft carrier designer team, otherwise it will be very difficult for us to expand. Of course. After the completion of the hand training on the first ship, we will definitely consider nuclear power on the second ship. Therefore, there is no problem with the electromagnetic ejection technology, which is now being studied."

Liu Yijiu carefully explained the reasons why the aircraft carrier project made such a choice.

This is a kind of sadness.

Obviously there is more advanced technology, but it is impossible to use this advanced technology. Once used, without developing lower conventional power technology, the entire Navy will have no other tonnage warships available.Even large warships are expensive to build, and there is simply no way to meet the needs of the navy.

At that time, the Navy's preparations will be divided into two levels, one large, one small...

As for large warships, the world knows that the larger the tonnage, the higher the cost-effectiveness ratio.

The question is, how many warships can China raise?
