Super military empire

"Actually, this is not without benefits. Although it has affected the progress of 055, the technical level of relevant units has improved rapidly. It has a great effect on the improvement of our naval equipment manufacturing capabilities. The management committee has taken this issue into consideration. , So there is no objection, but it is required that I must be strictly checked, and because of this, my work here..." Tang Weidong explained to Liu Yijiu.

He knew that no one in the management committee should tell Liu Yijiu about this matter.

Liu Yijiu has not come out all these years. I don’t know that these things are normal. If you follow Director Liu’s character, maybe something will happen. Whether the military will continue to tolerate his behavior is hard to say. .

"The management committee knows?" Liu Yijiu was taken aback.

He really didn't expect it.

If the management committee knows about this matter and has no objection, it means that there should be an agreement with the military.He just wanted to get angry, but nothing happened.

"Yes, I know. These units not only have our funds, but the military will also allocate some research and development funds to them, otherwise they will not be able to operate at all. Our funds alone are not enough to support too many units. Technological transformation. There is no way for the military, and the people at Hudong Shipyard do not know the inside information, so we can only endure all kinds of things." Tang Weidong explained the matter to Liu Yijiu.

In any case, the Ninth Court belongs to the military, and even if it has some power, it is given to them by the military.The management committee should be clear about this.

Liu Yijiu suddenly felt that he was very tired.

As for Tang Weidong in front of him, under such circumstances, work pressure can be imagined, but he has never complained, and even hopes to tell himself this matter in private.

"You worked hard." What else can Liu Yijiu say besides such a sentence?

"Director Liu, don't worry about this. The military is helpless. The funding is too small. After all, our naval equipment manufacturing industry starts from scratch. It is not a problem to catch up with Europe and the United States, or even surpass them. Easy thing. But now, the military has begun to increase its support for these companies..." Tang Weidong comforted Liu Yijiu instead.

He knows that Director Liu is not a hypocritical person. He has always insisted that funds are only used for related projects of the Ninth Academy. This is also such a helpless move. This is just like when the reform and opening up, the old man said, "Allow some people first To become rich, get rich first to drive other people to get rich together."

The military industry system, unlike other civilian products, is completely unable to launch targeted products based on market demand. They sell whatever the market demands.

For example, intercontinental ballistic missiles and nuclear warheads have huge international demand, but they cannot be sold.

Funding can only be based on military funding.

With more monks and less meat, it is naturally impossible to get enough funds in every aspect.

"It's already like this now, what's the use of urgency?" Liu Yijiu said with a wry smile. Knowing the inside story, what else can he feel besides bitterness?

Although a large part of the funding of the Ninth Academy is obtained from the international market, it actually belongs to the state.The military has discussed this matter with the Ninth People's Court, but he doesn't know, can he oppose it?

"According to the news, if our 055 large drive is successfully developed, the military will place an order for at least 4 ships. The 052 ship has not achieved too high performance, and the military will not install it and will continue to improve..." good news.

The 4 055-class large-scale guided missile destroyers, although not too many, are a very good start. This shows that the military is now beginning to attach importance to the development of naval equipment.

In other words, other developments have reached a bottleneck, allowing the military to spare money on the behemoth that has not made much progress.

"The question is, when will our 055 be able to conduct sea trials? The above situation was completely unexpected. Originally, I was still planning to let 055 conduct sea trials with guided missile battleships." Liu Yijiu was even more helpless."Only when the development is successful, the military can see the real object, and it meets our design criteria, will the order be placed."

"According to the current situation, as long as the remaining things are strictly in accordance with our technical requirements, during the National Day this year, sea trials can be carried out." Tang Weidong's words made Liu Yijiu finally heard that it was not particularly good. Good news.

It hasn’t been long since the National Day.

Almost four months.

I have waited for so many years and don't care about these four months.

"Your relationship with them here is not very harmonious, right?" Liu Yijiu asked suddenly.Seeing Tang Weidong nodding his head, he said, "Since the military has communicated with the Ninth Institute, why don't you tell them? They have the military's signal to keep asking for money from the project, but you must be optimistic about the money bag. ..."

"Director Liu, the situation is the best at the moment. They have the secret signal from the military, but they don’t know that the military has reached an agreement with us. It’s more difficult for me to carry out work here, but I can give them The greater pressure makes them unable to obtain more funds from our side with peace of mind. Otherwise, if they have sufficient funds in their hands, they will be like other state-owned enterprises without considering the development of the company or them. The upgrading of technology, the use of funds to repair welfare housing..." Wang Weidong quickly stopped Liu Yijiu.

When things are made public, his work will be more difficult to do.

The Ninth Institute not only has projects, but also more money.

The reason why the military only hinted in secret, instead of issuing documents in the form of documents, was also for this reason.

Obtain the greatest results with the least funds, this is suitable for the development of each unit.

After the reform and opening up, the country began to explore the market economy, and the strategic focus shifted to economic construction. This resulted in the military’s demand being compressed to the limit. But unable to adapt to the fierce competition in the civil market, bankruptcies, and mergers are happening all the time.

No country can do without its own military manufacturing industry, and nothing can be done without it.

Just like India, their industrial system is imperfect. Almost all domestic weapons and equipment are purchased from countries around the world. It is only light weapons. There may be Soviet weapons in a company, Israeli weapons and NATO weapons...

Once a war is fought, the chaotic logistics will make the Indians themselves killed by themselves.

"As for the progress of ship 055, although we do not ask for it, I hope everyone understands what it means. As the 701 responsible for the design and the Hudong Shipyard responsible for manufacturing, do you think there is a problem with your attitude? This opportunity to support other naval equipment manufacturing units is a good idea. Comrades, this is a battleship produced, the most advanced 10,000-ton large-scale drive in the entire country! You know the quality requirements better than me, and you can almost Is it okay? The warships made with a lot of money are not used yet, so they are lying in the military port. Don’t you feel disturbed? Our soldiers dare to have confidence in our military industry? Our people dare to treat us. Do you have a sense of security in your national defense?" At the end, Liu Yijiu gathered the heads of relevant units together.

Prior to this, it was also confirmed with Mai Dongyue of 701 and Wang Jingui of Hudong Shipyard that they were indeed informed by the military to use this opportunity to support some supporting units.

Under such circumstances, they will naturally release water.

"I know, everyone is also in order to complete the manufacture of warships faster. Although many equipments are not far behind our technical requirements, have you thought about it, everything is almost the same, and in the end the entire warship will be far from our needs. How old?" Liu Yijiu didn't get angry, but said quietly.

Mai Dongyue and others are a little embarrassed.

They know this. Although they seem to have done nothing wrong in the process, they think that the technical indicators of 055 are too high. Now the domestic technical conditions are not too easy to complete such technical indicators. You can build warships first. Then continue to improve technical performance in the subsequent battleship construction process.

In this way, a balance can be achieved. The Navy has warships available. Although they are not advanced enough, they can be used to train navy officers and soldiers.

According to the current situation, there is no problem with the development idea. The 052 destroyer is such a development idea, but this is definitely not in line with the thinking of the Ninth Academy.

"To make, we must make the best we can make. The technical requirements and technical performance indicators are not trifling, not for fun! I hope everyone can do it for themselves." After Liu Yijiu finished speaking, he left here. side.

Did not interfere too much.

Because he knew that as long as the 055 level is completely completed, the performance of the 052 ship can completely surpass the 052b in a short time, directly enter the technical level of the 052c, and even reach the level of the 052d.

As long as this level is reached, the Republic’s navy will, in the next few years, have guided missile destroyers that are no worse than the world’s first-class warships and a 10,000-ton large-scale drive.

The painstaking efforts of the military and the management committee of the Ninth Academy are all for this.

He doesn't need to interfere, and he doesn't need to disturb the existing balance in order to show his personal ability.

"Director Liu, how is the progress of the 055 ship? At that time, will the sea trial be conducted together?" Wang Weijian asked Liu Yijiu worriedly when Liu Yijiu returned.

Sea trials of guided missile battleships and densely packed weapon systems will make the enemy’s scalp numb, but this thing is not without its drawbacks. It is modified by warships purchased from the United States, rather than manufactured by the Republic itself.

Foreign countries cannot thoroughly understand the manufacturing level of Chinese warships through the technical level of this warship.

Level 055 is completely different.

The entire 055-class 10,000-ton destroyer, everything from materials to the production of invisible coatings on the outside, is all made by China itself.

The performance is not perfect and the cost is high, but China already has the technology.

The emergence of 055 will make foreign threat theory even more powerful.

The pressure on the military will be very great, and the country will face greater resistance in the international environment.They didn't report the matter, and it will obviously be cleaned up.

"No, the outfitting of Ship 055 has not been completed yet. When will it be completed? There is no guarantee..." How did Liu Yijiu fail to understand Wang Weijian's purpose, especially when he finished speaking, he clearly felt Wang Weijian. He breathed a sigh of relief, further confirming his idea.

"Isn't 055's outfitting work going on almost at the same time as ours? How come it hasn't been completed yet?" He Chengming was a little confused. His question is also a question in everyone's mind.

The 055-class destroyer is almost a reduced version of the guided missile battleship.

Although the difficulty will be greater, it cannot be too much.

"The technical indicators are different. After all, 055 has stealth requirements, and the requirements for electronic equipment and radar systems are much higher." Liu Yijiu did not want to talk about 055.

After all, this involves a lot of things.

If this side also learns to do the other side, it will be in trouble.

Obviously, the military did not make the Ninth Institute feel too much. There were no moths on the missile battleship transformation. They were all done in strict accordance with the design and funding.

What's more, what he said is also true. Although the 055 is a reduced version of the guided missile battleship, they are all the same arsenal ship concept. The electronic equipment of the guided missile battleship can be made larger, and the huge warship has enough space for installation.

Electronic equipment does not need to be installed inside the cabin, which is much less difficult.

What's more, nuclear power has enough energy for various equipment to consume.

055 is conventional power, and its energy consumption requirements are relatively high.

"In that case, only one missile battleship is undergoing sea trials? Will the shock level be much smaller?" Wu Donghao was a little unwilling.

He hopes to be able to compare with 055.

055 level, but can't accommodate so many missiles, even if they have 124 vertical launch units.At least there is no way to load things like Dadongfeng that can be delivered globally.

"What kind of shock is needed? The sea trial will do the sea trial honestly." Liu Yijiu said insincerely.

No one believed that he wanted to conduct sea trials honestly.

If it is just to conduct sea trials honestly, is it necessary to go to the south to see the return of Hong Kong at this time?Obviously it was to make trouble.

Besides, it is only a sea trial, do you need Director Liu to follow him personally?

"How much time is left for sea trials?" Liu Yijiu asked Ai Guoxiu.

"Three days, the final stage of equipment debugging is currently underway..."
