The A1B nuclear reactor used by Bald Eagle on aircraft carriers is indeed very powerful!

Even the power of the old A1B nuclear reactor has reached 350,000 kilowatts, and the power of the new A1B nuclear reactor has doubled, which is an exaggerated improvement.

An Liang also had to admit that the Bald Eagle's ship-borne A1B nuclear reactor is really quite advanced.

"Old Huang, do you know the cost price of the A1B nuclear reactor?" An Liang asked.

Huang Guoxiang really knows!

"The old A1B nuclear reactor on the Ford aircraft carrier currently in service, that is, the 350,000-kilowatt A1B nuclear reactor, has a purchase cost of 1.5 billion US dollars." Huang Guoxiang explained.

"The new A1B nuclear reactor on the three Ford-class aircraft carriers under construction, with a single unit power of 700,000 kilowatts, has a purchase cost of 2.5 billion US dollars." Huang Guoxiang added.

"A Ford-class aircraft carrier requires two A1B nuclear reactors, and the cost is really high!" Huang Guoxiang said with a sigh.

The overall cost of a Ford-class aircraft carrier is about 13 billion US dollars, and the two new A1B nuclear reactors account for 5 billion US dollars, which is 38.46%.

In fact, this is because Huang Guoxiang and An Liang's information is outdated, because the budget of the Ford-class aircraft carrier being built by Bald Eagle has been further increased from the original 13 billion US dollars to 17.5 billion US dollars.

In addition, the nuclear reactor is the heart of the aircraft carrier, so it is normal to be more expensive.

After all, aircraft carriers with and without nuclear reactors can even be said to be two different things.

Those aircraft carriers without nuclear reactors cannot perform ocean-going missions at all, let alone global cruise missions, but they can also protect territorial waters.

Only aircraft carriers with nuclear reactors have the ability to fight around the world!

So it is reasonable that the nuclear reactor used in aircraft carriers is more expensive, right?

"If the cost price is similar, can you make a nuclear reactor with similar performance to A1B? "Huang Guoxiang asked.

Huang Guoxiang quickly added, "I'm talking about a nuclear reactor that can be used on ships!"

"It should be no problem!" An Liang agreed directly, "We will make such a nuclear reactor for you at the price of A1B."

"Ah?" Huang Guoxiang was stunned.

"Can you really do it?" Huang Guoxiang asked excitedly.

"We sent you the information of the bomber-killer combination before, you should understand it, right?" An Liang teased.

"In addition, I want to praise the National Academy of Sciences, because the work of reducing the size of the reactor around the fourth-generation nuclear power technology is almost all handled by the National Academy of Sciences." An Liang added.

"It seems that their confidentiality is very high, even you don't know!" An Liang sighed.

“…” Huang Guoxiang was speechless.

After all this time, it turned out to be a misunderstanding?

"Can the National Academy of Sciences really make something comparable to the Bald Eagle A1B nuclear reactor?" Huang Guoxiang asked without giving up.

An Liang responded uncertainly, "According to their last report, they have overcome the relevant technical difficulties. The only problem is that the price is relatively high."

"How high?" Huang Guoxiang was curious.

"Currently, it costs about 35,000 Xia Guoyuan to match 1 kilowatt of power." An Liang explained.

"Previously, the National Academy of Sciences made a simulation sample through a supercomputer. The sample specifications are five meters in diameter and five meters in height, with a total weight of about 700 tons, a power generation capacity of 600,000 kilowatts, and a total cost of about 21 billion Xia Guoyuan." An Liang added.

"What the hell?" Huang Guoxiang was shocked!

"Do you know how much our Fu Jian aircraft carrier cost?" Huang Guoxiang asked back.

An Liang responded casually, "I remember that Captain Fu Jian revealed the news that the cost of the Fu Jian ship was 30 billion Xia Guoyuan, but it did not include the carrier-borne aircraft and various ship-borne weapons and equipment."

Huang Guoxiang responded affirmatively, "¨々 Indeed, so you think a nuclear reactor will cost more than 21 billion Xia Guoyuan, is it really appropriate?"

"What's inappropriate?" An Liang asked Hu.

"You just said that the new A1B nuclear reactor on the Bald Eagle side also costs 2.5 billion US dollars. Isn't this price too much?" An Liang borrowed the data previously revealed by Huang Guoxiang.

"Wait a minute..." Huang Guoxiang quickly used the mobile phone calculator to calculate.

While calculating, he muttered, "The current exchange rate is around 6.8, and 2.5 billion US dollars is about 17 billion Xia Guoyuan. If we calculate based on the power of 700,000 kilowatts, the cost of each kilowatt is more than 24,000 Xia Guoyuan."

"Your (Nuo Qianhao) offer far exceeds the A1B nuclear reactor of the Bald Eagle. Do you still think it is appropriate?" Huang Guoxiang seized the issue of unit cost price and asked.

An Liang just said the results of the supercomputer simulation of the National Academy of Sciences of Xia State. The matching cost of each kilowatt of power is 35,000 Xia Guoyuan, which is indeed far higher than the Bald Eagle in terms of cost price.

An Liang complained directly, "Bald Eagle's A1B nuclear reactor is indeed relatively cheaper in terms of cost, but we couldn't build a ship-borne nuclear reactor that meets the requirements before. Now we have solved the key problem of building one from scratch. What's wrong with the price being a little higher?"

"Besides, the two have similar costs and similar powers, so there's really not much difference!" An Liang complained.
