Anti-Japanese War: Young Marshal? No, please call me Great Power

Chapter 173

When the time came in 19345, there was good news from the Dalian Shipyard.

Two Midway-class aircraft carriers have been successfully launched after construction around June last year.

The Dalian shipyard even ran a competition.

Look at who launches first of two aircraft carriers that start at the same time.

In just about a year, the construction of two heavy aircraft carriers was completed.

Zhang Xueming was also a little stunned when he heard the news.

Although he knew that the shipbuilding industry in the northeast was progressing rapidly.

But that's an exaggeration.

It will take about a year and a half for Eagle Sauce's Midway-class aircraft carrier to start construction and launch.

And the Dalian Shipyard turned out to be built in a year?

You know, the 43-year-old eagle sauce shipbuilding industry is at its peak.

This also made Zhang Xueming feel that he seemed to underestimate the shipbuilding industry in the northeast.

But when he heard the report.

You can see why it's going so fast.

The reason is actually very simple.

Three shifts!

The Huaxia shipbuilding industry needs to build a large warship to prove its shipbuilding ability.

Although now the powerful navy already has 8 capital warships.

Among them, 6 Wuyue-class battleships and 2 Midway-class aircraft carriers.

But none of these warships have anything to do with the Dalian Shipyard.

It also has nothing to do with the shipbuilding industry in Huaxia.

All are given away by the check-in system reward.

Therefore, the shipbuilders of Huaxia are holding a breath in their hearts.

This is true from top to bottom.

As the number of shipbuilders surged.

The Dalian shipyard decided to concentrate on attacking two Midway-class aircraft carriers.

So a group of elite soldiers and strong generals were dispatched.

Accelerated the construction of two Midway-class aircraft carriers in three shifts.

Otherwise, with the construction process at that time.

It's hard to get into the water again 35 years ago.

The shipbuilders who hold their breath are also particularly powerful.

No one is lazy.

Only after suffering backwardness can we know how difficult it is today.

They don't want to be bullied by the great powers anymore.

It is precisely under the influence of this force.

It took only 11 months to complete, from the construction to the launch of two 60,000-ton heavy aircraft carriers.

Zhang Xueming was still very moved by this.

"I don't advocate this kind of behavior, and this spirit is very positive.

This is the spirit that our Chinese nation should have.

With them, why don't Huaxia worry about revival, who dares to bully us.

But in the future, don't do this, just follow the normal routine. "

Two more Midway-class aircraft carriers were added.

Although it will be at least seven or eight months before it is officially commissioned.

From sea trials, outfitting, etc., it was already very good to be able to officially join the Navy at the beginning of 35.

But this is also a matter of time.

6 battleships, 460,000-ton Midway-class aircraft carrier.

It is enough for the current Chinese Navy.

After all, there is still some time before World War II.

So Zhang Xueming is not in a hurry.

After all, the cost of raising such a large fleet is still quite high.

After the reunification is completed, it will mainly focus on developing the economy and industry.

So it just takes them to build step by step.

After all, there are still three Midway-class aircraft carriers under construction.

And there is also an improved model with an angled deck.

In addition, steam catapults and arrestor cables that are still under development will also be tested on this aircraft carrier.

Even if this experimental aircraft carrier is removed.

By then, the Midway-class aircraft carrier will also reach the size of 6 ships.

This is already a very strong sea force.

However, Huaxia has developed aircraft carriers so vigorously.

It will inevitably attract the attention of external forces.

Aircraft carriers are the trend of the future, and there are still very few people who can recognize this.

The current mainstream is still giant ship artillery.

However, due to the restrictions of the Washington Treaty.

They also tied the hands and feet of the major powers.

So Zhang Xueming decided to help them quickly get rid of the speed of the Washington naval treaty.

Strive to complete the lifting of the ban more than a year ahead of schedule.

And the best way to do that is to openly build a supership.

In this way, the nerves of various countries can be stimulated.

Let them return their attention to the cannons of giant ships.

Instead of focusing on the development of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft.

Zhang Xueming regretted a little, and let two Midway-class heavy aircraft carriers appear when he was in Fu Province.

Now all countries have begun to pay attention to aircraft carriers.

"Super Battleship~?"

Navy Commander Chen Shaokuan was also a little stunned after hearing Zhang Xueming's proposal.

He proposed to Zhang Xueming several times to continue building and developing more powerful battleships.

However, all were rejected by Zhang Xueming.

Let him put his focus on the aircraft carrier.

And not on a battleship with a knife.

Of course, Chen Shaokuan knew that aircraft carriers were very powerful, and it was not difficult for an aircraft carrier to sink a battleship.

But it is almost impossible for a battleship to sink an aircraft carrier.

After all, the maximum firing range of the main guns of battleships was only thirty or forty kilometers.

And the carrier-based maneuver of the aircraft carrier is hundreds and thousands of kilometers.

It was very difficult for battleships to find aircraft carriers in the vast sea.

And aircraft carriers can find battleships relatively easily.

After all, the aircraft carrier is carrying the more advanced KJ-30 carrier-based AWACS aircraft.

That is, the A-1 Skyraider attack aircraft was modified.

The TBM-3W AWACS aircraft with worse performance has been replaced.

But none of this matters.

Living in this era, he was inevitably affected by the cannons of giant ships.

Moreover, the Northeast had the ability to build larger battleships.

But today, Zhang Xueming changed his previous attitude.

The construction of large battleships was actually proposed.

That's why Chen Shaokuan had such an expression.

And Zhang Xueming also gave him his thoughts.

Only then did he understand Zhang Xueming's intentions.

It turns out that the future delays the pace of development of aircraft carriers of the great powers. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

That's a good idea.

This does no harm in the Navy.

Why not say yes.

Super battleship.

Hearing this name made his blood boil.

So he asked a little eagerly: "I wonder what the commander suggests about this super battleship?" "

Zhang Xueming did not answer directly, but said: "Go and call the people of Dalian Shipyard and the Northeast Ship Design and Research Institute and discuss it together." "

Chen Shaokuan didn't say a word, and directly rushed to shake people.

A few hours later.

Everyone is here.

"Super battleship?"

When they heard this plan, they were also a little stunned.

But they are very interested in it.

Zhang Xueming looked at everyone and said: "The displacement of this battleship should preferably reach a full row of 100,000 tons.

And the minimum caliber of the main guns of battleships was more than 500 mm.

The minimum speed should also be more than 25 knots. "

Zhang Xueming's proposal of these data indicators is not without purpose.

Rather, it took a long time to think about it.

It is believed that this indicator can still be achieved in the current shipbuilding industry in the northeast.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this indicator.

Chen Shaokuan is no exception.

He originally thought that its full row could reach 80,000 tons, which was already an unprecedented super giant ship.

For a full row of 100,000 tons, the standard discharge is at least 80,000 tons.

Boy.

The commander's appetite was much greater than they thought.

If it can be built.

The day it was launched was the time of the earthquake of the world's navy.

It can definitely re-draw the great powers into the battleship race.

But such an exaggerated indicator.

Can it really be achieved?

Chen Shaokuan's eyes stared at the president of the Northeast Ship Design and Research Institute.

Feel the gaze from everyone.

The dean also felt Alexander.

"In fact, we once studied the construction of a large battleship of 100,000 tons.

In terms of our current technology.

There should still be no big problem.

However, there will be no specific difficulties.

It will take some time to argue.

My side doesn't dare to guarantee it. "

100,000 tons of super battleships.

They have never designed ships of this size.

So there is really no way to give a guarantee.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Shaokuan looked at the director of Dalian Shipyard.

The director nodded quickly and said confidently: "As long as we give us the design drawings, it is not a problem at all." "

Dalian Shipyard do not say 100,000-ton battleships.

Even if it's a ship of 200,000 tons.

In terms of the equipment and workers of the shipyard, it is capable of building.

This downward pressure was given to the Northeast Ship Design and Research Institute.

After the dean returned, he summoned the elite soldiers and strong generals in the courtyard overnight.

The technical demonstration sessions alone went on for several days.

When the preliminary argument is completed.

This side finally gave an answer.

With the current technology, it is completely possible.

However, the only more difficult thing is the 500 mm caliber naval gun.

This caliber is somewhat oversized and weighs much heavier than the 406 mm naval gun.

But it's not unsolvable.

This is a test of the current comprehensive industrial capacity of the northeast.

Since there is no problem with the technical argument.

Zhang Xueming waved his hand and directly asked the God of Wealth to allocate this fund.

A whole hundred million bong coins.

Used to research and build this super battleship.

It will also be the most expensive battleship.

In terms of the purchasing power of the current Tohoku.

The cost of building a Midway-class aircraft carrier is about 30 million yuan.

This still counts these things of carrier-based aircraft.

If you go up to the angled deck and catapults, these things.

It is estimated that the cost will approach 4,000 coins.

And Eagle Sauce to build a Midway-class aircraft carrier costs $90 million.

However, the situation of the Yingchan family is very different from that of Huaxia.

First, the material cost and labor cost of eagle sauce are much higher.

Second, military enterprises are all private, and what they seek most is high profits.

So the price will be so much more than the northeast.

The scientific research units and shipbuilding enterprises in the northeast are publicly owned, and the profits are very low.

The profit of building a warship is only about 5%-8%.

The Northeast Ship Design and Research Institute, which received funding, immediately started construction.

At the same time, the weapon system and power system were also started.

500 mm naval gun, high-power power system.

It is also a big challenge for the shipbuilding industry in Tohoku.

500 mm naval gun needless to say than.

Light is the power system.

Want to drive such a 100,000-ton full row of super battleships.

The minimum power must be more than 250,000 horsepower.

This places very high demands on heavy oil boilers and steam turbines.

While the construction is ongoing.

The northeast side also began to publicize this super battleship in a high profile.

Even the PPT was published.

Sure enough, as soon as it was announced, it caused a shock among the world powers.
