Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 1975 Shameless, I'm Scared

Battleships in southern Africa are not as good as the United States, and the Americans are not good at aircraft carriers.

Regardless of the Americans' ambitions and clamoring for revenge, the "Ranger" is inherently insufficient, and the "Yorktown" is still on paper, and even if the "Yorktown" class is completed, it is probably only equivalent to the level of the "Elizabeth" class , which is far from the "island" class aircraft carrier being built in southern Africa.

"Yorktown" has a full load displacement of 25000 tons, a maximum speed of 32 knots, and can carry no more than 80 combat aircraft.

The "Island" class aircraft carrier has a full load displacement of 30000 tons, a maximum speed of 34 knots, and may carry more than 130 combat aircraft.

And it should be explained that the combat aircraft of the U.S. Navy still have a large gap in performance with the combat aircraft of southern Africa.

Therefore, in terms of the combat performance of aircraft carriers, an "island" class aircraft carrier is roughly equivalent to two "Yorktowns".

"Yorktown" plans to build three ships, and after the "Lexington" is sunk, the number may increase.

The "Island" class plans to build four ships, which will be assigned to the Atlantic Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet respectively, and the number may also increase in the future.

Putting the data of the two types of aircraft carriers together, let's say that the Americans are not panicking.

"For a long time, the U.S. government has been tolerant of targeted suppression in southern Africa. You sanctioned, you curbed the supply of raw materials for American companies, and you united with Europe to squeeze out the living space of the United States. We have endured it—" Hoover was filled with grief and indignation , Southern Africa is too much!

"—and now you are finally reaching out to America's back garden, you were the ones who first tore up the agreement between Lord Nyasaland and President Roosevelt, and now you are blaming us for tearing up the Washington Naval Treaty, which is being built in Southern Africa' Didn't the island-class aircraft carrier break through the restrictions of the Washington Naval Treaty?" Hoover complained, in the words of the southern Africans, this means that only state officials are allowed to set fires and the people are not allowed to light lamps.

"When the "Washington Naval Treaty" was signed, southern Africa was still part of the Commonwealth of Nations, and we in southern Africa did not sign the "Washington Naval Treaty" as an independent country at all, so how can it be regarded as tearing up the "Washington Naval Treaty"? "Sean Ferguson was also wronged, this is a problem left over from history.

Hoover really didn't think of this crop.

After being interrupted by Sean Ferguson, Hoover's newly accumulated emotions stopped immediately, and there was a feeling that a mouthful of old blood had reached his throat, and then he swallowed it abruptly.

"What about the London Naval Treaty?" Hoover was successfully distracted by Sean Ferguson.

"When the "London Naval Treaty" was signed, Southern Africa was also a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, and the "London Naval Treaty" mainly restricted cruisers and destroyers—" Sean Ferguson avoided the important, and the "London Naval Treaty" actually imposed restrictions on aircraft carriers. In fact, there are additional restrictions.

It is mainly southern Africa. When the "Washington Naval Treaty" was signed, southern Africa did not receive a quota. It only deducted [-] tons from the British quota to build four "Elizabeth" class aircraft carriers.

The "London Naval Treaty" added a quota of [-] tons of aircraft carriers to Southern Africa, and Southern Africa built two more "Elizabeth" class aircraft carriers. This is the source of the current six aircraft carriers in Southern Africa.

"So, when all the countries in the world are restricted by the "Washington Naval Treaty" and "London Naval Treaty", your southern Africa can be free from any restrictions?" Hoover was so mad that he didn't know about these two treaties. When the signing was signed, the heads of governments of the participating countries must have been brain-dead to agree to such a bizarre clause.

Hoover probably forgot that when the "London Naval Treaty" was signed, Hoover himself was the president of the United States.

Sean Ferguson helplessly spread his hands, and Sean Ferguson, who is not brain-dead, doesn't know, but this is the fact.

"Even so, what about the new aircraft carrier on the berth in southern Africa?" Sir Drummond was still cunning.

The six "Victoria" class aircraft carriers in Southern Africa have already filled up the quota of aircraft carriers in Southern Africa. The United Kingdom has no quota space for new aircraft carriers. Sir Drummond is actually very uncomfortable.

But there is nothing you can do if you are uncomfortable. Let alone the United Kingdom is not capable of building new large-scale warships. Even if it has, the Royal Navy will insist on building battleships instead of aircraft carriers.

The stubborn British are terrifying. Even if the aircraft carrier performs well, the stubborn British will never compromise.

"When the two newly built 'island' class aircraft carriers are put into service, Southern Africa will decommission the two 'Elizabeths', ensuring that the restrictions of the London Naval Treaty will not be breached." This is the first time that southern African officials have publicly recognized the "island" The existence of class aircraft carriers.

Drummond is much harder to fool than Hoover, a human trafficker. During the World War Drummond served successively as the private secretary of the British Foreign Secretary Edward Gray and the Keeper of the Seal Arthur Balfour.

"The 'Elizabeth', the oldest model in Southern Africa, has only been in service for about ten years, so it's retired?" Sir Drummond almost doubted his ears. For a large warship like an aircraft carrier, the service life is not Calculated in units of ten years, after all, it is an aircraft platform, performance does not matter, the key is the carrier aircraft.

Battleships are different. During the arms race, battleships often lag behind in performance before they are launched, and their cost performance is outrageous. This is one of the reasons why aircraft carriers are getting more and more attention.

After all, even the British Empire is unable to initiate another arms race.

"Of course, Southern Africa is a responsible country. In order to maintain world peace, Southern Africa will do whatever it takes." Sean Ferguson said in a high tone.

Sir Drummond sneered.

Who is to blame, if Southern Africa was so honest and reliable, the "Lexington" would not have sunk.

Of course, Drummond has no choice. Retirement depends on the situation. Dismantling and selling decommissioned warships is decommissioning, and directly sealing them in the port and sending people to maintain them on a regular basis is also decommissioning. The name is to prevent the loss of state-owned assets and wait until needed. Enable anytime.

Although the "London Naval Treaty" has more detailed regulations on the decommissioning of warships, Sir Drummond believes that southern Africa must have a way to circumvent the restrictions of the "London Naval Treaty".

The completely shameless southern Africans are also terrible.

Americans are actually shameless.

When Hoover attacked Sean Ferguson in the League of Nations, Stimson, who had not yet left southern Africa, went directly to the Palace of Justice to see Rock.

See you, not an appointment.

Stimson was naturally rejected, and the Rock people were still in Los Angeles cheering for the southern African athletes participating in the Friendship Games, so they had no time to meet Stimson.

Like the Commonwealth Games and the Olympic Games in Pretoria, in the Goodwill Games, Southern African athletes made great strides, winning gold medals faster than De Beers Consolidated Mining Company produced gold medals.

All the medals awarded at the Friendship Games were manufactured by De Beers Consolidated Mining Company, and the gold medals were in the form of gold with diamonds, which was so dazzling that everyone was deeply impressed.

This is what Stoudemire wants. De Beers Consolidated Mining Company, among other things, has more gold and diamonds.

At the same time, the De Beers Unified Mining Company also decided to award all Rhodesians who won gold medals a gold brick weighing [-] kilograms as a reward. There are also silver and bronze medals, but the difference is that the weight of the gold brick is smaller.

Then, while the De Beers Unified Mining Company greatly improved its sense of presence, it also established a brand-new image of local gold in front of audiences all over the world.

Nyasaland Company is not willing to be lonely, gold and diamonds are nothing, Nyasaland Company decided to present a set of houses in the city of Los Angeles as a reward to all Nyasaland athletes who won medals, and the champion set is located on the shore of Lake Nyasaland The first runner-up is a large flat in a high-end community, and the third runner-up can also get an apartment in the city center as a reward.

We all know how much a house on the shore of Lake Niassa is worth. If you have money, you may not be able to sell it. Ordinary people simply cannot get their hands on it.

In addition to De Beers Unified Mining Company and Nyasaland Company, other companies such as Nyasaland Military Industry and Nyasaland Aviation also have their own rewards. For a time, the athletes fought bravely and made great achievements. After the friendly games started, More than 20 world records have been broken in a row. Under such circumstances, no one paid attention to the news of the sinking of the "Lexington".

Vargas must have known it. As soon as the "Lexington" was sunk, Vargas took the initiative to find Rock and express his concerns.

The "Lexington" was sunk, and the Americans will certainly not let it go.

Southern Africa did not participate in the war, and the Americans did not dare to trouble southern Africa. Therefore, the anger of the Americans must ultimately be borne by the new Brazilian government.

"Hehe, don't worry. The third batch of submarines will be delivered in the near future. At least the safety of Rio can be guaranteed." Rock is not worried. Submarines and Luke aviation are enough to ensure the safety of Rio.

The "Lexington" was sunk, and Rock didn't believe that the Americans dared to drive the battleship to Rio to play wild.

Without the protection of the air force, driving the battleships to Rio is to deliver food, one by one to dry one by one.

If it is said that the new Brazilian government and the Americans still have the possibility of negotiating.

Now this possibility is very slim. Unless one side completely admits defeat, the war will not end.

The second batch of submarines delivered in Southern Africa was the same batch that sank the "Resolution".

"Lord, if possible, I hope to form a modern army with the help of the Southern African National Defense Force." Vargas finally let go.

Rock is very satisfied, that's right, political power grows out of the barrel of a gun, no matter whether Vargas understands this truth, Rock must understand it deeply enough.
