Pirates: I built a super navy city

Although it returned earlier than expected.

But Tina also carried out a saturation fire attack.

As she said, this warship can match the entire fleet of the Demon Slayer Order.

The firing rate of the main gun alone is more than three times faster than that of the large naval warships.

Not to mention the main gun range, shell power, and strike accuracy.

Each item is far beyond the large naval warships.

Even if the advantage of the range is used well, a warship can even overthrow the entire naval fleet.

After all, the range of 22 kilometers...

And the main guns on the large warships of the navy are just a little more than one kilometer.

Using a speed of 30 knots to kite your entire fleet, there is nothing wrong with that?

Of course, Tina also found some areas for improvement.

For example...

Observation methods!

Yes, the main gun can shoot 22 kilometers away, but standing on Cambridge, using a telescope can only shoot about 12 kilometers away.

In other words, attacks from 12 kilometers away cannot be accurately located at all.

Yes, there are observation Haki radars on warships, but as mentioned before, the maximum detection range of this thing is about ten times the range of the user's observation Haki.

Take Tina as an example.

Currently, the coverage range of observation Haki is about 300 meters.

So, after using the observation Haki radar, it is only 3 kilometers.

Not to mention locating targets 12 kilometers away, it is not even as far as a telescope.

And if you want to match the range of 22 kilometers, then the captain's observation Haki basic coverage range must reach 2.2 kilometers.

How many people in this sea can use observation Haki to cover a range of 2.2 kilometers?

So, for the time being, although the observation Haki radar is useful in artillery battles, it is very limited!

In the conference room, Tina spoke for almost an hour.

Some are minor problems that only need to be adjusted.

But some are major problems, and there is no good way to solve them.

"Roy, what do you think?"

As the director of the Ship Design Bureau, Roy is definitely a professional in this area.

"Colonel, other problems are easy to solve, but the problem of the sight radar is a bit troublesome. How about using the old method to temporarily deal with it?"

"The old method?"

"Yes, add a mast to the island and set up a lookout tower above the island."

Good guy, this is really the old method.

As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the farther you can see, right?

After all, Tina said that you can only see 12 kilometers away, because you are looking from the bridge.

But if you add more onlookers on the island and directly raise the observation position by 20 to 30 meters?

Then you can naturally see farther, right?

Although it is still unlikely to reach 22 kilometers, it is definitely much higher than 12 kilometers.

This method is a bit old, but it is still acceptable as a temporary transition!

"I agree. After Roy has finished designing, Kylo will be responsible for modifying the warships immediately!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

"Well, another thing is Silas. How is the progress of the close-in defense weapons of the warships that I told you about last time?"

After confirming this, Luo Lan looked at Silas again.

In fact, from the beginning, Luo Lan thought that it was too thin to deploy ten heavy machine guns on each warship for both air defense and close-in defense.

So, he asked Silas to develop a more effective close-in defense weapon.

It requires a fast firing rate, a barrage of bullets formed instantly, and great power.

If it can work automatically, it would naturally be better!

"Colonel, the indicators you mentioned last time cannot be achieved in a short time!"

Silas shook his head.

What was Luo Lan's request last time?

1. The firing rate exceeds 1,000 rounds per minute.

2. The range exceeds 2 kilometers.

3. The bullet uses a 30mm caliber armor-piercing bullet.

4...

There are more than ten requirements.

But for now, most of Silas can't do it.

A very key point is...

It is too limited by the process capability.

Many times it is not that the things cannot be researched, but that the current process cannot do it.

Just like Luo Lan's chip in his previous life, you can design a 3-nanometer chip, but your process cannot make it.

Because, you don't have a lithography machine.

This is the same in the world of pirates.

The fundamental reason is that the current technological development of the branch is a bit too distorted.

There is no way to do this, it takes time to do it bit by bit.

"In this case, how about increasing the number temporarily?"

Luo Lan pondered for a moment and asked Roy again.

"In fact, it doesn't matter how many are deployed on the battleship, even 50, as long asIf that's the case, based on two people per heavy machine gun, we need to carry dozens more people. "

"This will greatly reduce the living conditions of the personnel, the time that supplies can be maintained, and the amount of other ammunition reserves, etc."

Yes, it doesn't matter how many heavy machine guns you deploy.

After all, as long as there is a place to set up this thing, it's fine, and there are not too many harsh conditions.

It's nothing more than a question of balance and trade-offs.

"Add it, each warship is equipped with at least 30 heavy machine guns, and it is required to form a firepower network with no blind spots in all directions! "

After repeated consideration, Luo Lan decided to add it.

It may not be used in ordinary operations, but going to the volcanic island in a month...

It still needs to be prepared.

After all, there may be a big war at that time, and the original warship configuration...

It is still not safe.

------

This meeting lasted a long time.

In addition to the modification mentioned earlier, Luo Lan also asked Roy to make improvements to the problems found.

At the same time, build the second batch of warships, the number is also two.

Time is very tight, because Luo Lan's requirement is that from design to completion of construction, the total time is only 20 days.

As for Tina and Smoker, they were also assigned tasks.

The time is also 20 days, and four groups of qualified crew members must be trained so that...

Four warships can be dispatched at the same time in a month.

After deploying all the tasks, Luo Lan prepared to go to the training center for training.

However...

Silas quietly stopped him.

"Colonel, I just made some good things over there, do you want to take a look? "

"What did you come up with?"

"Hey, it's the thing you told me about before, the airplane!"

"What, you made an airplane?"

Luo Lan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"Let's go, lead the way, go now!"

"Yes, Colonel! "

About ten minutes later.

Luo Lan finally saw the plane made by Silas and others.

At first glance, it looked very familiar.

It was too familiar.

If I remembered the name correctly, it was exactly the same as the [Morana-Solnier L-type fighter] in my previous life, right?

Good guy...

Silas, did you secretly travel through time without my knowledge?

Otherwise, how could you make it so similar?

Although from the perspective of Luo Lan, a time traveler, this thing is very backward.

But it is undeniable that this is indeed a fighter.

Even in my previous life, this thing is the world's first fighter in the true sense.

"Can it fly?"

"Theoretically, there is no problem, but we haven't tested it yet!"

"Okay, let me test it!"

With his eyes full of heat, Luo Lan made the decision on the spot.

I want to be the first person in the pirate world to fly a plane!
