Great warships
Chapter 462 Old men from 5 lakes and 4 seas gather in Mingzhou
Chapter 462 Old men from all over the world gather in Mingzhou
The original design of a warship matters.
The bow of the Glorious class is very special in design. Needless to say, the front naval guns are flanked by powerful anti-ship missiles. These missiles almost extend to the middle of the hull. The part between the two rows of missiles must be It needs to be higher, otherwise it may be affected by the tail flame of the missile launch.
Therefore, the front part of the bridge is an elevated second or even third deck, and many weapons, including short-range anti-aircraft missiles, are deployed on this.
Digging down from here, after digging the height of the bow deck, and then digging down a layer, the total height is six or seven meters, but if you dig to the height of the S-300 missile, you will almost have to poke to the bottom , it cannot be dug like this.
When he heard what Mutisin said, Qin Tao finally breathed a sigh of relief, well, he was finally able to get back on the normal track.
In all fairness, the plan that Yang Dawei and the others came up with is really good, almost equivalent to the 055 of later generations.
However, the cost of this kind of modification is also quite high. In many cases, the modification is even more expensive than the new construction. After all, the modification needs to remove the original one and install a new one, which is more labor-intensive than direct installation.
Four-sided phased array, more than 100 red wine missiles, sounds very enjoyable, but the cost is too high.
For now, the modification should not cost too much.The navy doesn't have that much money.
The current S-300 missile system is completely usable. If it is disassembled and replaced with a domestically produced Hongqi IX, it will cost a lot of money. Waste is a crime.
Qin Tao is unwilling to waste.
Yang Dawei was a little confused, why, can't it be cut off?
Squatting on the current platform is already very high. If the height is increased, it may block the bridge.
Missiles are unstoppable, but when missiles are fired...
"Let me tell you something." Qin Tao said: "Although in Lao Maozi's original design, this kind of anti-aircraft missile has a defensive dead zone, but we don't have to care too much, as long as our long-range radar can detect the target in advance, the warship If you change the direction, it can still be intercepted. Our 051C can accept it, and this kind of warship can also accept it. Since there is insufficient space at the bow, we can install Hongqi-16. If the long-range area air defense missile is not blocked, we can use it. Medium-range anti-aircraft missiles to intercept, remove the two sets of Wasp-M ship-to-air missile systems, in the original position, about 2 or 16 HQ-300 missiles can be loaded. As for the S-[-] missile system, let’s arrange it first. "
After all, the Hongqi-16 missile is small in size and the launch unit is compactly arranged, so this kind of missile can still be equipped in large quantities.
"Hongqi-16?" Mutisin didn't understand. In the past few years, he has been driving a taxi, and he doesn't know much about the development of warships in various countries.
"That's right, our own vertically launched ship-to-air missile system." Qin Tao said: "The overall performance is about the same as that of Shi Keli."
Mutisin nodded: "That's right, if it's similar to Shi Jili, you can arrange two target irradiation radars at the front and back, so that you can have omnidirectional interception capabilities, and you can also use the roof radar on the top of the upper bridge mast. "
"Okay." Yang Dawei nodded. The 054 they manufactured also uses the Hongqi-16, so the transplantation of this missile system is not difficult.
Although he regretted that he didn't install the S-300 system, that's the only way to go at the moment.
"I have another proposal." Qin Tao said: "Remove the crane at the front of the S-300 missile, can there be two sets of it underneath? In this way, 300 more S-16 missiles can be added, bringing the total to [-]."
This can be regarded as an alternative, which can make up for everyone's regret.
I don't know what Lao Maozi's designer thought, but a crane was actually installed in the back chimney, which is in front of the S-300 missile launcher!The function of this crane is to lift the missiles for the S-300.
Do you still think about replenishing at sea at any time?Anyway, there is no such need in China, and it is enough to supply directly on the shore. There is a special crane on the shore, so there is no need to equip another crane yourself.
Mutisin thought for a while, then nodded: "The position of the flue passes through from both sides. If the space in the middle is freed, it will be no problem to insert two more groups. However, for this kind of launching device, you have to start from Import it from outside?"
Qin Tao smiled: "No, we can produce it ourselves without spinning."
"With this change, there is also the shadow of an arsenal ship." A naval leader present was very happy: "There are [-] to [-] anti-aircraft missiles, plus anti-ship missiles, by the way, anti-ship missiles , how do we change it?"
"Now we can reserve it first, or we can poke a set of Eagle Strike-81 anti-ship missiles first. After our pony bombs are mature, we can replace them and become our own big killer. If the size is suitable, The original two-mounted launcher can be installed with three or even four, and if counted according to four, this warship can carry 32 anti-ship missiles, and the total number reaches [-]."
Is it appropriate for a [-]-ton cruiser to install so many weapons?
There are too many weapons, and they are not friendly to damage control and the like, which may cause problems. However, since it is designed in this way, it cannot be wasted, so the space that should be used must be used.
"Pony bomb?" Mutisin was a little curious: "What is this?"
"The supersonic anti-ship missiles on the Hyundai class." Qin Tao said, "What's your name?"
"Sandflies." Mutisin replied.
The aircraft carrier killer and the sun-burning missile were given by NATO. In Lao Maozi's place, the 3M80 anti-ship missile is called the sandfly. Of course, this sandfly is a transliteration. If you translate it directly according to the sound, it is called Mas Kit.
The pony bomb is not the little mother who cursed people, but refers to a new generation of supersonic anti-ship missiles developed on the basis of Musket. In the Navy, it is called the pony bullet.
When Mutisin said the pronunciation of Musket, he also understood something: "Are you imitating sandfly missiles?"
Qin Tao smiled: "Currently we don't have suitable anti-ship missiles to put on both sides, but there will be some in the future, so let's keep them for now and wait for the mid-term improvement to replace them. Yang Gong, go ahead."
"Okay, next, let's talk about the specific electronic system. On the rear mast, we will install a meter-wave radar produced by ourselves as a long-range warning radar..."
The meeting lasted for a whole day before it was concluded. Although the corresponding design drawings had not yet been obtained, everyone talked on paper and combined with Mutisin's suggestion, the basic idea of refitting the warship was determined.
"In this way, the original components are retained to the greatest extent, and we try our best to refit this warship with a budget of 2 million yuan."
Qin Tao finally concluded that, of course, he wanted to tell the most critical budget issue of the Navy.
"[-] million?" Sure enough, someone was surprised there.
"Two hundred million yuan, not U.S. dollars." Qin Tao said: "Think about us buying the Hyundai class, and a ship costs [-] million US dollars. If we buy the Glory class and modify it ourselves, the cost is less than the Hyundai class. The superiors can't deduct it." Buckle Soso."
Can you still tell the difference between [-] million RMB and [-] million US dollars?
People who just thought there were more than 2 million people shut up immediately.
"That's right, if we only spend [-] million yuan, we can accept this modification plan."
"In terms of time, according to this idea, we should be able to complete the modification of this warship within a year." Qin Tao continued.
Not only in terms of money, but also in terms of time. It is very important to complete the modification within one year and enter service as soon as possible next year.
For some reason, Qin Tao felt more and more energetic.
The busy day is finally over.
When returning home, Qin Tao and Wu Shengli naturally sat in the same car.
"Taozi, your modification plan is not the best, but it is the most economical and fully meets the needs of the Navy." Wu Shengli said with emotion.
The so-called not the best, of course, refers to not following Yang Dawei's design plan. If the Hongqi Nine can also be stuffed in the front, then the area air defense capability of this warship will definitely be overwhelmed.
"Yes, we can solve the problem of insufficient strength, but the cost is too high." Qin Tao said: "We can build this kind of [-]-ton warship by ourselves in the future. The new design is definitely better than the current modification many."
"after?"
"That's right, we will definitely build warships of more than [-] tons in the future. Of course, in order to avoid irritating some people, we can continue to call it a destroyer." Qin Tao said.
Wu Shengli smiled. When it comes to these trivial matters, Qin Tao is sometimes very serious and effective.
"Now, our phased array radar system is still in a running-in stage, especially for that aircraft carrier. With the current production capacity of 14, it is simply not enough for us to complete the improvement and put into service within one year. requirements."
Wu Shengli nodded: "Yes, keep the original equipment as much as possible. The main change is the medium-range air defense missile. In this way, the construction period will be greatly shortened and the cost will be greatly reduced. Your plan is correct."
Wu Shengli agrees with Qin Tao's modification idea.
As for the advanced [-]-ton large drive, Wu Shengli at this time can only yearn for it.
"The navy has spent more money this year." Wu Shengli sighed again.
Qin Tao smiled, this is not his concern, he has to spend even if he spends more than that, they can't let the Mingzhou Group advance the money!
"The navy's project to build its own air defense destroyer has to be delayed again. It is estimated that the navy will not be able to provide funds until next year." Wu Shengli said: "By then, the development of the 14th phased array radar should also be more mature. .”
If it weren't for this cruiser, the Navy would have already started bidding for an anti-aircraft destroyer. Now, it can only be delayed for another year.
Qin Tao smiled: "For us, this is really good news. In this year, if the 14th Research Institute achieves a technological breakthrough and the cost of phased array radar is reduced, the possibility of the navy choosing our solution is almost Bigger."
"Yeah, some people are already feeling that your Mingzhou Group is so lucky."
"It's not luck, it's strength." Qin Tao said: "However, at most they dare to say a few words behind their backs. Our Mingzhou Group has developed, and they have followed suit. If you don't believe me, ask Huating Shipyard. Let's see if they dare to speak ill of us in person."
Mingzhou Group's natural gas ship patents have been expanded to several major domestic shipyards. The big guys have received preferential treatment from Mingzhou Group. It can be said that Mingzhou Group has helped them make money. So, how dare they explain the state? Bad words for the group.
Even if there is no order for military ships, they can still get a large order for civilian ships. Now, driven by the Mingzhou Group, the entire domestic shipbuilding industry has begun to develop natural gas ships. There is a kind of natural gas ship building powerhouse feeling.
The Mingzhou Group is earning more money, even if it only needs half or even a quarter of the French patent, it will still have a lot of income.
The business was busy. The next day, Qin Tao took people to Mingzhou. As for the blueprints, they had already been transported to the first design office of Mingzhou Group.
It is almost the same as the previous operation, first of all, the blueprint must be input into the computer. This is not the first time that this kind of thing has been done, everyone is familiar with it, and even without the instruction of Yang Dawei and others, they can enter the working state proficiently.
They knew that this project was very important, and it was best to complete it before the warship returned to China. Therefore, from this moment on, they started to work continuously, and many people even directly moved the bedding into the design office.
After Qin Tao brought people back, Yang Dawei also immediately devoted himself to this work, but Mutisin didn't go to the design office immediately. When he saw the shiny warship in the dock, Mutisin couldn't help pointing out requested to visit.
"Of course." Qin Tao nodded, "I'll take you there with me."
The rust removal process is very fast, and it has reached the rear deck. Looking at this scene, in another month, the exterior will be completely brand new.
Mutisin stood on the wide deck wearing foot gloves: "You guys are so fast. When I was a taxi driver, I read newspapers and saw that this warship was bought by you, but I didn't expect , It’s only been a few months, and you have made it look brand new!”
"It's been almost half a year." Qin Tao said: "We spent half a year just to carry out a rust removal operation. This progress is already very slow, okay?"
Mutisin smiled.
At this moment, a crane next to the dock lifted a large box and slowly put it on the elevator next to the deck. Mutisin asked curiously, "What is that?"
"Internal equipment." Qin Tao said.
"Internal equipment? You are still in the rust removal stage, and you have started to install the internal equipment? No, you lowered it from the elevator behind. Could it be the boiler?"
The power of warships is big, and when a general warship repairs the engine, it needs to cut open the rear deck. Therefore, using the rear deck as a helicopter take-off and landing platform has this advantage: cut it directly during maintenance!
If, like the Hyundai class, there is a double-mounted 130mm naval gun on the tail, it will become a big project. The naval gun is not only the upper part, but also the loading machine below, which is very complicated. , During installation, the platform has to be calibrated, and the slightest deviation may cause the shell to miss the target.
The aircraft carrier does not need to cut the uppermost deck, and directly transports the boiler inside through the elevator. Of course, the inner decks still need to be cut.
Mutisin was a little curious, and walked in that direction while talking, and soon, he saw clearly a group of people working there.
They are all old men!The person in charge of the command is still very familiar!
"Makarov!" When Mutisin called out the name, his surprise was beyond words.
He never expected that the old director of the Nikolayev Shipyard would appear here.
This is also Qin Tao's first meeting with Makarov after leaving Ermao. Makarov has been in Mingzhou for less than a week, but he has already adapted to life here.
At this time, Makarov was wearing the overalls of the Mingzhou Shipyard, with a smile on his face, the confusion in his eyes disappeared, and he seemed to have returned to the booming shipbuilding era!
Qin Tao was very satisfied. He could tell what state Makarov was in right now by looking at Makarov's expression, and he wouldn't leave even if he was asked to leave!
This place is very close to the derusting station, and all kinds of machinery are very noisy. Makarov was busy directing, but did not hear Mutisin's words. Mutisin continued to run a few steps and came to Makarov. in front of.
"Makarov, why are you here?" Mutisin patted Makarov's shoulder excitedly.
The relationship between the Naval Design Bureau and the shipyard is very good, and Mutisin and Makarov are old acquaintances. Now, Mutisin is very happy to meet an old acquaintance in a foreign land.
Makarov turned his head and was taken aback when he saw Mutisin: "Mutisin, why are you here? By the way, you came for that cruiser. It seems that we all gathered in Mingzhou .”
us people?Mutisin was a little curious, watching someone sticking his head out from the lower hangar: "Are you ready?"
"Babbage?" Mutisin looked at the people below in surprise.
Babbage smiled: "Work first, put the elevator down manually!"
When the elevator went down, Mutisin also went down. The giants of naval shipbuilding who used to be in the era of the Red Empire actually met here!
Mutisin looked at the box again. He didn't know the Chinese on it, but he could roughly guess it: it must be a boiler!
Didn't this warship say it was going to be a blockade?What is the use of installing a boiler?For guests to bathe?of course not!
Mutisin's heart suddenly became excited.
If a boiler is to be installed on this big ship, it means that this big ship has to start again!
"Boss Qin, can I go down and have a look together?" Mutisin said.
He couldn't wait.
"Mr. Mutisin, of course you can follow along. After all, you are already a member of our Mingzhou Group, but are you ready?"
Qin Tao asked this question very implicitly.
You can watch it, but if you read it, it means that you have seen our core secrets, which means that you will be linked with Mingzhou Group in the future, and you will probably lose a lot of freedom.
"That's right, I'm ready." Mutisin said, "When you appointed me as the commander-in-chief of that cruiser, I made up my mind. I will stay here until I die!"
This is the reason why scholars die for their confidants. In St. Petersburg, Mutisin can only drive a taxi. When he comes here, he can continue to work on his previous projects, and even create more projects together. Mutisin has long been The choice is made.
stay here!
At this time, seeing Babic and Makarov, Mutisin knew that these people also planned to stay here forever, and it was very good to work with their former companions.
For Qin Tao, this is also a necessary step.
The degree of secrecy of this project is no longer very important, and more relevant personnel can know about it. Anyway, there will always be a sea trial in the future, and it will always attract the attention of others.
People like Mutisin belong to important personnel. Let him know, and he can feel his own trust, and he will be more determined in the future. Moreover, they all work in the same shipyard, so sooner or later they have to know.
As for betrayal?Hmph, the fate of a traitor is death!
Now, Mutisin has made his choice.
"Come on, let's go down and have a look together." Qin Tao said.
Qin Tao's previous life was shipbuilding, warship building, and aircraft carrier building. Now, he was rushing back and forth, which actually delayed his old career. At this time, he followed the crowd, went down several decks, and came to the bottom cabin. , it can be seen that two brand new boilers have been installed inside, and the one currently installed is the third one.
"This is the best boiler I have ever seen!" Makarov said: "The safety measures of this boiler are in place, which greatly improves the safety of our warship boilers. I didn't expect that you have already started to make preparations for this." gone."
Makarov felt that this time was like a dream.
When he saw the Varyag being towed away, his heart was empty. At that time, he seemed to be dead.
Even if the Varyag was changed to a sea blockade, it still made him very sad. It would be great if this warship could continue to sail on the ocean!
With such regrets, he came to the east, met his old acquaintance Babich, and then learned about the real modification goal of this warship. At that time, Makarov burst into tears.
He made a decision on the spot: stay here for the rest of his life, and never leave again!He wants to build this warship with his own hands!
Makarov seemed to have gained a new life, his body was full of energy all of a sudden, and he was busy here every day.
Although the actual modification would have to wait until the derusting operation was over, they couldn't wait any longer, and the boiler was ready, so they simply started installing the boiler.
"Yes, we have already started to make this preparation. We have made this plan since we saw this warship for the first time. However, the modification of the warship has just begun, and we may encounter various difficulties in the future. Make a huge difference, please!"
Makarov nodded: "There's nothing to say, let's roll up our sleeves and work hard! The five-year construction period is not too late. By the way, do you have a new aircraft carrier construction plan?"
Qin Tao smiled: "Of course, this is just the beginning. In our words, this is only the first step of the Long March. In the future, we will build a [-]-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. Everyone, come on! We all come from From all corners of the world, come together for the same goal!"
(End of this chapter)

It is almost the same as the previous operation, first of all, the blueprint must be input into the computer. This is not the first time that this kind of thing has been done, everyone is familiar with it, and even without the instruction of Yang Dawei and others, they can enter the working state proficiently.
They knew that this project was very important, and it was best to complete it before the warship returned to China. Therefore, from this moment on, they started to work continuously, and many people even directly moved the bedding into the design office.
After Qin Tao brought people back, Yang Dawei also immediately devoted himself to this work, but Mutisin didn't go to the design office immediately. When he saw the shiny warship in the dock, Mutisin couldn't help pointing out requested to visit.
"Of course." Qin Tao nodded, "I'll take you there with me."
The rust removal process is very fast, and it has reached the rear deck. Looking at this scene, in another month, the exterior will be completely brand new.
Mutisin stood on the wide deck wearing foot gloves: "You guys are so fast. When I was a taxi driver, I read newspapers and saw that this warship was bought by you, but I didn't expect , It’s only been a few months, and you have made it look brand new!”
"It's been almost half a year." Qin Tao said: "We spent half a year just to carry out a rust removal operation. This progress is already very slow, okay?"
Mutisin smiled.
At this moment, a crane next to the dock lifted a large box and slowly put it on the elevator next to the deck. Mutisin asked curiously, "What is that?"
"Internal equipment." Qin Tao said.
"Internal equipment? You are still in the rust removal stage, and you have started to install the internal equipment? No, you lowered it from the elevator behind. Could it be the boiler?"
The power of warships is big, and when a general warship repairs the engine, it needs to cut open the rear deck. Therefore, using the rear deck as a helicopter take-off and landing platform has this advantage: cut it directly during maintenance!
If, like the Hyundai class, there is a double-mounted 130mm naval gun on the tail, it will become a big project. The naval gun is not only the upper part, but also the loading machine below, which is very complicated. , During installation, the platform has to be calibrated, and the slightest deviation may cause the shell to miss the target.
The aircraft carrier does not need to cut the uppermost deck, and directly transports the boiler inside through the elevator. Of course, the inner decks still need to be cut.
Mutisin was a little curious, and walked in that direction while talking, and soon, he saw clearly a group of people working there.
They are all old men!The person in charge of the command is still very familiar!
"Makarov!" When Mutisin called out the name, his surprise was beyond words.
He never expected that the old director of the Nikolayev Shipyard would appear here.
This is also Qin Tao's first meeting with Makarov after leaving Ermao. Makarov has been in Mingzhou for less than a week, but he has already adapted to life here.
At this time, Makarov was wearing the overalls of the Mingzhou Shipyard, with a smile on his face, the confusion in his eyes disappeared, and he seemed to have returned to the booming shipbuilding era!
Qin Tao was very satisfied. He could tell what state Makarov was in right now by looking at Makarov's expression, and he wouldn't leave even if he was asked to leave!
This place is very close to the derusting station, and all kinds of machinery are very noisy. Makarov was busy directing, but did not hear Mutisin's words. Mutisin continued to run a few steps and came to Makarov. in front of.
"Makarov, why are you here?" Mutisin patted Makarov's shoulder excitedly.
The relationship between the Naval Design Bureau and the shipyard is very good, and Mutisin and Makarov are old acquaintances. Now, Mutisin is very happy to meet an old acquaintance in a foreign land.
Makarov turned his head and was taken aback when he saw Mutisin: "Mutisin, why are you here? By the way, you came for that cruiser. It seems that we all gathered in Mingzhou .”
us people?Mutisin was a little curious, watching someone sticking his head out from the lower hangar: "Are you ready?"
"Babbage?" Mutisin looked at the people below in surprise.
Babbage smiled: "Work first, put the elevator down manually!"
When the elevator went down, Mutisin also went down. The giants of naval shipbuilding who used to be in the era of the Red Empire actually met here!
Mutisin looked at the box again. He didn't know the Chinese on it, but he could roughly guess it: it must be a boiler!
Didn't this warship say it was going to be a blockade?What is the use of installing a boiler?For guests to bathe?of course not!
Mutisin's heart suddenly became excited.
If a boiler is to be installed on this big ship, it means that this big ship has to start again!
"Boss Qin, can I go down and have a look together?" Mutisin said.
He couldn't wait.
"Mr. Mutisin, of course you can follow along. After all, you are already a member of our Mingzhou Group, but are you ready?"
Qin Tao asked this question very implicitly.
You can watch it, but if you read it, it means that you have seen our core secrets, which means that you will be linked with Mingzhou Group in the future, and you will probably lose a lot of freedom.
"That's right, I'm ready." Mutisin said, "When you appointed me as the commander-in-chief of that cruiser, I made up my mind. I will stay here until I die!"
This is the reason why scholars die for their confidants. In St. Petersburg, Mutisin can only drive a taxi. When he comes here, he can continue to work on his previous projects, and even create more projects together. Mutisin has long been The choice is made.
stay here!
At this time, seeing Babic and Makarov, Mutisin knew that these people also planned to stay here forever, and it was very good to work with their former companions.
For Qin Tao, this is also a necessary step.
The degree of secrecy of this project is no longer very important, and more relevant personnel can know about it. Anyway, there will always be a sea trial in the future, and it will always attract the attention of others.
People like Mutisin belong to important personnel. Let him know, and he can feel his own trust, and he will be more determined in the future. Moreover, they all work in the same shipyard, so sooner or later they have to know.
As for betrayal?Hmph, the fate of a traitor is death!
Now, Mutisin has made his choice.
"Come on, let's go down and have a look together." Qin Tao said.
Qin Tao's previous life was shipbuilding, warship building, and aircraft carrier building. Now, he was rushing back and forth, which actually delayed his old career. At this time, he followed the crowd, went down several decks, and came to the bottom cabin. , it can be seen that two brand new boilers have been installed inside, and the one currently installed is the third one.
"This is the best boiler I have ever seen!" Makarov said: "The safety measures of this boiler are in place, which greatly improves the safety of our warship boilers. I didn't expect that you have already started to make preparations for this." gone."
Makarov felt that this time was like a dream.
When he saw the Varyag being towed away, his heart was empty. At that time, he seemed to be dead.
Even if the Varyag was changed to a sea blockade, it still made him very sad. It would be great if this warship could continue to sail on the ocean!
With such regrets, he came to the east, met his old acquaintance Babich, and then learned about the real modification goal of this warship. At that time, Makarov burst into tears.
He made a decision on the spot: stay here for the rest of his life, and never leave again!He wants to build this warship with his own hands!
Makarov seemed to have gained a new life, his body was full of energy all of a sudden, and he was busy here every day.
Although the actual modification would have to wait until the derusting operation was over, they couldn't wait any longer, and the boiler was ready, so they simply started installing the boiler.
"Yes, we have already started to make this preparation. We have made this plan since we saw this warship for the first time. However, the modification of the warship has just begun, and we may encounter various difficulties in the future. Make a huge difference, please!"
Makarov nodded: "There's nothing to say, let's roll up our sleeves and work hard! The five-year construction period is not too late. By the way, do you have a new aircraft carrier construction plan?"
Qin Tao smiled: "Of course, this is just the beginning. In our words, this is only the first step of the Long March. In the future, we will build a [-]-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. Everyone, come on! We all come from From all corners of the world, come together for the same goal!"
