Great warships

Chapter 131 The same stubborn factory manager as Dad

Qin Tao is just pointing out the country casually, but he has the advantage of being reborn, so he can get to the point with a casual sentence.

As far as air defense ships similar to the Aegis system are concerned, Lao Maozi really doesn’t have them now. Although their Kirov-class and Glory-class ships are already solid arsenal ships, these warships are too expensive after all, and it is impossible to mass put up.

Only by developing a dedicated anti-aircraft destroyer with a displacement of less than [-] tons can this problem be solved.

Because Lao Maozi's electronic technology is backward, it is impossible to achieve balanced anti-submarine, anti-ship and air defense on one destroyer, so they are developed separately.

The Type 956 destroyer, also known as the Hyundai class, is equipped with powerful supersonic anti-ship missiles and medium-range anti-aircraft missiles for anti-ship and air defense, while the Type 1155 destroyer, also known as the Fearless class, is used for anti-submarine. This type of destroyer is the main ship of their ocean-going fleet.

According to this analysis, it seems that it is more appropriate to refit professional anti-aircraft ships on the modern class. The fearless class with full combustion power is more suitable for modification.

Although it is said that the Dreadnought 3 air defense ship appeared in the fiction of alternate history, in fact, this kind of air defense ship also appeared in Lao Maozi's plan.

According to Lao Maozi's military development law, fearless 1 is under construction, design of fearless 2 has already begun, and fearless 3 is of course also under conception.

At its peak, the Red Empire has been sparing no effort to develop their sea power in order to compete with the United States on the opposite side. This kind of special air defense ship is of course also in their consideration, even if the Red Empire does not collapse If not, maybe it will really get this kind of thing out.

Originally, it was just a courtesy to let these guests from the east visit. Makarov didn't think about showing these people too many things, but when he heard this suggestion, he couldn't help but admire them. You really have foresight, and you can guess their follow-up development plan!

"Comrade, please tell everyone how to change it?" Makarov asked.

"Soviet warships are all equipped with a large number of naval guns. In fact, I think this is unnecessary. After all, the era of naval gun confrontation has passed." Now that he has successfully aroused the interest of these people, Qin Tao will of course continue Fool them.

"Take the Type 1155 anti-submarine ship as an example. Its bow weapon can be readjusted. The front short-range anti-ship missile launcher can be removed. In that place, a 130mm naval gun can be placed. It is enough. In this way, the positions of the original two main guns on the bow are vacant. In these positions, the vertical launch tubes of 9M38 anti-aircraft missiles can be inserted. If they are squeezed like this, they may be able to be inserted. 48 launch tubes."

Large area air defense missiles are fine, but medium-range air defense missiles can still be packed in a lot. If the space at the rear is freed up, more can be stuffed in.

The plan Qin Tao offered was exactly the same as what they thought!
Babich couldn't help but said: "However, our Sky Sentinel radar antenna is too bulky, and there are still many problems when it is installed on the bridge of the Type 1155 anti-submarine ship."

Makarov gave him a blank look, why did he say what he shouldn't have said?

Although it is a flat-panel phased array radar, it is only a backward passive phased array radar antenna, especially it is very cumbersome, so now Lao Maozi just installs this radar antenna on heavy-duty aircraft cruisers. Type 1155 anti-submarine The body of the ship, I am afraid it will be a bit difficult to carry it.

"Cut it in half, you can't even think of this?" Qin Tao looked at Babbage with contempt.

Qin Tao is also clear about the specific data. This kind of sky sentinel radar antenna is six meters by five meters, cut in half, and becomes three meters by five meters, or even three meters by four meters, which is enough for use .

"There is also the problem of radar irradiation. You can learn from the Americans. Using the time-sharing irradiation mode, the number of missiles that can be guided can also be doubled, providing multi-channel air defense capabilities."

As a person who has been engaged in anti-aircraft missile research since graduation, Zhao Ling looked at Qin Tao with admiration at this time. This kind of serious nonsense is really too strong, and the old man was really fooled!

In later generations, the Aegis warships of the motherland used active phased array radar. This kind of radar can not only search for targets, but also track and illuminate targets. Therefore, with this kind of radar, it is truly capable of resisting saturation attacks. ability, as long as a part of the T/R unit is allocated, and each performs its duties.

But in this era, no matter if it’s old Maozi’s or American’s, they are all passive phased array radars. The electromagnetic waves are still generated by a huge electromagnetic tube, but the phase shifter is used to change the phase before it is released. , Therefore, although it can find multiple targets, it cannot separate a part of the electromagnetic wave to irradiate the target.

Anti-aircraft missiles also need special irradiation radars. The number of such radars is the number of firepower channels of Aegis warships.

On a warship, installing four irradiation radars is already very good, and eight is against the sky, that is to say, it can attack up to eight targets at once.

So, what if more anti-ship missiles come?
The Yankees have thought of a solution, launch as many missiles as they come, and first illuminate the eight most threatening targets among them, and wait until the irradiation is over, then relay to illuminate other targets. At this time, the missiles have also flown a certain distance according to the predetermined trajectory. , Wait until there is the help of the radar, and then fly to the target accurately.

This method is easy to say, but in fact, it is difficult to use, because it requires the electronic system to be advanced and agile enough, and the old man does not have this level yet.

If Lao Maozi's electronic technology is advanced enough, why separate anti-ship and anti-submarine warships?The Universal Destroyer does the trick.

However, the old Maozi couldn't admit that his electronic technology was backward, and these methods could not be realized. Therefore, they could only nod in front of Qin Tao's proposal, saying that Qin Tao was right and greatly inspired them.

Qin Tao gave Jiang Shan a few pointers, which impressed the old man, and he was also in a good mood. At this time, everyone continued to move forward, and they had already passed the middle of the bridge, heading towards the leaping deck of the bow.

"The designers of the Soviet Union are too creative. This kind of jumping deck has successfully made it possible for heavy fighters to board the ship." Qin Tao continued: "However, it also brings a lot of restrictions. If you want to If you operate a carrier-based fixed-wing early warning aircraft, you still need a steam catapult."

At this time, Qin Tao stood on the top of the Yuefei deck, looking at the No. 107 berth from here, where the huge order [-] was being welded.

Although the deck of Order 107 has not been welded, and the slots for the steam catapults cannot be seen, the relevant equipment has been assembled at the Nitka base and has been tested for several years. Therefore, the West has long speculated that the old Maozi's latest heavy-duty aircraft-carrying cruiser is going to be equipped with a steam catapult with an angled deck.

Looking at the direction Qin Tao was looking at, Makarov was also very moved. As an old man who has built ships for half his life, he is already satisfied that his men can assemble warships that rival the West. He is full of expectations.

The other people also stood on the deck, facing the sea breeze, excited.

How wonderful it would be if we could also have such a powerful warship!

Everyone has this idea in their hearts. They don't know that in the next few years, this ideal will become reality little by little.

Everyone stood at the bow of the ship for more than ten minutes before starting to walk back.

"If this boat can be disassembled to sell scrap iron, I think it can be worth 100 million boxes of canned fruit." Qin Tao whispered to Nicholas.

Nicholas smiled: "Yes, it must be very valuable, but we don't have room for manipulation, so let's forget it."

Qin Tao also smiled: "Not now, maybe in the future? My friend, since we are here, we must get some good things, right? I can also get some good things, toilet paper, ballpoint pens, plastic bags and so on .”

Qin Tao looked around while talking, and sure enough, he really saw it.

On the grass in the distance, there is a pile of tatters.There should be disused things there, and among them, a device that looks like a revolver wheel is very conspicuous.

When seeing that device, Qin Tao's heart suddenly became hot.

Of course he knows, that kind of thing is Lao Maozi's rotary vertical missile launcher!Although the distance is very far, the size cannot be seen clearly, but as long as the launch tube under the rotary launcher is rectangular, you know that it should be a 9С95 launcher! (This model is really hard to find, I don’t know if it’s right.)
What Lao Maozi likes to use most is the launcher of this revolver. However, generally speaking, under this launcher, there are cylindrical launch tubes stuffed in. Whether it is a long-range Reeve-M, It is still the mid-range Shi Jili, all of them are like this, with the exception of short-range.

This kind of short-range air defense missile is improved from land-based air defense missiles, which is the famous Doyle combat system. It creatively arranges air defense missiles, search radars and other equipment on the basis of a chassis. Maozi's weapon for field air defense.

Lao Maozi has always liked to move land-based air defense missiles over, so this missile system soon began to be moved to warships. It was developed in 1975 and installed on warships in 1986. It was also ten years of hard work. The Maozi Navy has advanced short-range defense missiles.

In terms of range, it only has a maximum range of more than ten kilometers, which seems to be very backward. However, it uses radio command guidance technology, does not require target irradiation radar, and has multi-target attack capabilities. One system can deal with eight targets at the same time. Definitely a weapon for close range defense.

According to its own naming rules, NATO gave it the number SA-N-9 Gauntlet (gauntlet). In Lao Maozi's case, it is called a short sword.

In the war that broke out in later generations, the Moskva was sunk, and Lao Maozi's navy immediately got on the horse, hoisting the army's Doyle M1 directly to the helicopter deck of the warship to configure a more reasonable interception firepower , It can be seen that this weapon system is powerful.

In the Doyle M1 system of the army, the launching box is a cuboid. When it comes to the navy, it is also a cuboid. However, it is installed on the firing unit of the revolver, and the overall shape looks a bit weird. (I found it by searching some pictures, and I feel a little curious. If it is a cylindrical launcher, please tell Huadong Zhixiong this military blind, and then change it.)
Any shipyard will have a lot of scrap iron, the remaining part of the cut steel plate, and the installation of various system samples or broken things. The vertical launch device should be a sample or a problem was found during installation. Yes, just throw it there.

Qin Tao remembered that when he went to the 713 Research Institute, he boasted there that he wanted to find a chance to get them the vertical launcher. Now, it happened to be a chance!

These launchers are similar with minor differences, as long as you get one, other missiles of different sizes can also be copied from the gourd, so let's start now!
"My friend, I think those rags can be replaced with ten tons of toilet paper." Qin Tao said, pointing to the rags in the distance.

Lao Maozi is extremely short of all kinds of living materials here.

Strange to say, Lao Maozi has no shortage of trees. It is said that it is easy to cut down trees to make toilet paper, which is still the best wood pulp paper. However, Lao Maozi only develops heavy industry, and light industry has not been doing well. This kind of paper mill The toilet paper produced is not enough for them to use.

At this time, Qin Tao can exchange the rags with toilet paper, and it's no problem.

Nicholas nodded immediately, and ordered the adjutant beside him to catch up with Makarov who was walking ahead to negotiate. Soon, the adjutant came back with a dark face.

"The director of Makarov said that those things belong to the state, and he has no right to deal with them. Relevant departments need to be dispatched to our steel plant to return to the furnace."

Nicholas' face was a bit ugly, but even though he gritted his teeth, there was nothing he could do.

This Makarov factory director was born in 1934 and experienced the cruel World War II. Many people in his era are absolutely loyal to the Soviet, just like Qin Tao's father, he has a lofty ideal. A sense of mission and responsibility.

It is impossible for Makarov to make money for his own interests and fill his own pockets.

This is a shipyard, not a fleet, so Nikolai has no other choice. If Makarov refuses to agree, then he can only give up.

"Hmph, let the people in their shipyard continue to wipe their asses with water." Nikolay said angrily, "My friend, let's go to the 61st Commune Shipyard in the afternoon. I and Moskalenko, the director there, are friends." good friend."

Makarov doesn't know good from bad, and Nikolai can't do anything about it, so he has to change places.

The meal at noon was not very pleasant. The shipyard cafeteria here did not even provide drinks. After Nicholas had a simple meal, he took a group of members of the inspection team to the 61 Commune Shipyard.
