Warship of Great Power Chapter 638

  Chapter 638 The Four King Kongs are together like this?

   Don't take porcelain work without diamonds. In the era of the Red Empire, they might be able to grab it, but now, they are clear about the state of their respective shipyards. With the loss of workers, the remaining workers are not motivated to work. The modification work is so difficult, they dare not take it at all!

  The face of the superior is extremely ugly: "You are not willing to do it, do you want us to send this job abroad? This will leak our military secrets!"

   "Nicolas, you proposed this project. Do you have any good ideas?" The superior looked at Nikolai again. At this time, he could only rely on Nikolai.

"Report, if our own company is not sure of refitting, we can turn to Mingzhou Group for help. In this salvage, Mingzhou Group's performance was impeccable. Since they dared to take the risk of nuclear leakage to salvage for us, Then, they will take the risk and help us transform it. Since we have obtained a nuclear power plant, we don't have to worry about production safety, so this should be the best choice.”

   "Mingzhou Group?"

"Yes, their group is now using the nuclear power plant developed by themselves. They have relevant experience. Moreover, during the salvage process, they have already come into contact with the information of the Type 949 nuclear submarine. Now if they continue to refit, there will be no risk of leakage." Nicola said.

   "However, if it is contracted to them, they will ask for modification fees!"

   "Our fleet has decommissioned a Type 956 destroyer, the Shenmi. We can use this warship as an exchange, and the Mingzhou Group will definitely agree."

   Exchange decommissioned warships?

  The scene fell into silence.

  East, the capital, Huanglou, Qin Tao has already begun to introduce his vision endlessly.

"The Shenmi is an old ship that was launched in the 1980s. It has a history of more than ten years. In terms of Da Mao's maintenance level, the condition of this warship must be very poor. Therefore, it is different from our previous two ships. The ship is incomparable, and it must be repaired in the dock before it can join the navy." Qin Tao said.

   "Of course, our navy will reimburse you for all the expenses." Wu Shengli said, "During maintenance, do we also need to upgrade it?"

"Yes, it definitely needs to be upgraded, but it can't be upgraded on a large scale. If it costs too much, it's better to build a new warship." Qin Tao said: "Among them, the boiler needs to be dismantled. Will Maozi's sailors add fresh water when they are short of water? Things like frying boilers cannot happen to us. Also, the anti-aircraft missiles have to be modified and replaced with our vertical launch system. As for Otherwise, keep it as it is."

   "Keep it as it is? Do you want to remove the tail gun and replace it with a helicopter hangar according to the modification plan of the Glory?"

Qin Tao shook his head: "No, it's not cost-effective to modify too much. The tail gun remains the same, anyway, it is not a professional anti-submarine ship. The tail gun can carry out ground attacks when needed in the future. The power is still great, by the way, after the YJ-12 anti-ship missile matures, we can install this anti-ship missile!"

  Modification is necessary, but it cannot be changed drastically. This is Qin Tao's basic idea.

  The major modification costs too much money, even similar to a new warship, so it is unnecessary.

"Yes, Taozi is right. We can't be too greedy. If there are too many modifications, it will be too expensive. It depends on the positioning of this warship." Wu Shengli said: "If it is positioned as anti-ship and air defense , This modification is already qualified. Relevant units are working **** research and development, and it is estimated that after the modification of this warship is completed, the Eagle-12 missile will also come out."

  The Hyundai class is not urgent for the time being, but the No. 138 ship has been carrying air-launching tubes without missiles for a long time, and it urgently needs the addition of anti-ship missiles.

   "Yes, the original Shijili will be dismantled and replaced with our vertical launch system, which will be almost the same. Even, in the future, the two ships we have on hand can also be transformed according to this plan!" said a leader.

   Now, the two Hyundai-class ships have only been in service for a short time, but the big guys feel that this kind of warship is outdated. Without a vertical launch system, it does not have the multi-target saturation attack capability, and it is time to transform it.

   "These two ships are not in a hurry. If our navy has sufficient funds, we will build 052C next, which is what the navy needs most." Qin Tao said: "You guys, the expansion is too strong now."

The young Qin Tao was educating the old leaders all over the room. This scene was a bit ridiculous, but everyone was smiling and didn't think Qin Tao was disobedient. After all, Qin Tao was right. Everyone is inflated.

"I don't know how long the old Maozi will discuss." Wu Shengli said: "Their movements have always been very slow. We don't have to worry about this modification plan. Taozi, in the next time, we can go to the research and development of Eagle-12 Take a look at the unit, you can also go to the catapult to have a look, by the way, and your J-31A recently called a report, requesting to use our aircraft carrier for take-off and landing test flights.”

   "What? J-31A is going to take off and land on an aircraft carrier? Isn't this progress too fast?" Qin Tao was very surprised.

"What's so fast about this is that the conventional air force model has already begun to make prototypes, that is, the vertical take-off and landing model, which is still in the design stage." Wu Shengli said: "Now, the two units of military aircraft research and development are full of urgency. feeling."

The J-31A is a three-type aircraft, the first to be a naval carrier-based type, capable of ski jumping or catapult takeoff, and can also block landings. Although this type of aircraft was developed in the name of export, but, Everyone can see that once this kind of aircraft is successfully tested, it means that Dongfang has entered the period of fourth-generation aircraft, and the navy and air force may purchase it.

  In particular, the land-based model does not need to strengthen the landing gear and the airframe. The performance of this kind of aircraft will be more advanced. It is not guaranteed that the Air Force will take a fancy to it and abandon the purchase of J-10, and instead purchase the aircraft of Mingzhou Group.

Therefore, 611 has a sense of urgency, and it has to quickly get out the double-engine heavy-duty stealth machine. The 601 Institute is also working hard. The light machine is hopeless, and only the heavy machine is left. Easy!

Qin Tao rubbed his nose: "Oh, their progress is too fast, we don't have stealth coating yet, no, I have to tell them to slow down and be more steady, it doesn't matter if the flight test takes another year or two, Moreover, this excuse can also be used to require customers participating in R&D to increase their capital investment."

  Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

  Looking at the expressions of everyone, Qin Tao felt contempt in his heart. What, you don't agree? You all don't know that a high-tech company engages in a PPT project, and then starts countless rounds of financing. When the financing is enough, it will immediately run away! Our Mingzhou Group is already very good, at least we have projects!

   However, none of this worked out.

"Leaders, Mr. Qin, we have just received an official notification from Da Mao. Da Mao has made a decision. Please ask Mingzhou Group to help transform the second half of the salvaged submarine into a floating nuclear power plant at sea!" Xu Zhengyang walked in, Report to everyone.

So fast? Da Mao has also changed his style, has he acted swiftly and resolutely?

  Qin Tao is a little curious. If Da Mao really agrees, he must make a deal with Da Mao first. After all, this kind of project is the most important!

   "Moreover, Da Mao also added a condition. The Northern Fleet also hopes to exchange a decommissioned Hyundai-class destroyer. Let us refit the tail sections of two sealed nuclear submarines for them as two floating nuclear power plants at sea."

  Another ship coming?

   In this case, the four King Kongs of the Eastern Fleet will be together! How is this going?

  Qin Tao thought for a while: "The Northern Fleet is powered off?"

Xu Zhengyang nodded: "That's right, because the Northern Fleet can't pay the electricity bill, it has already been cut off by the power supply agency for the third time. After they heard about it, they were very interested and hoped that they could supply their own power in this way, so as to avoid having to be powered again." The department is shutting down."

   "Their fleet couldn't pay the electricity bill, so they were shut down?" Everyone present was very curious: "Then what should they do?"

  The fleet definitely needs a stable power supply, and the power must not be cut off!

   "I heard that this time, they sent a group of troops to surround the power supply department." Xu Zhengyang said.

  Everyone laughed wryly. They didn't expect the survival of the Da Mao Navy to be so difficult. However, their style of doing things has never changed.

The Oscar-class nuclear submarine is already broken, and no company dares to take it over, but this is not the case with the decommissioned nuclear submarines of the Northern Fleet. Therefore, they became more greedy and used a decommissioned Hyundai-class as an exchange to transform two offshore submarines. floating nuclear power plant.

   After all, in addition to the main base of Severmorsk, the Northern Fleet facilities have 6 other naval bases and several shipyards and fuel storage stations. Their scale is very large, and a floating nuclear power plant at sea is not enough.

"This is really good news." Qin Tao said: "This is just the beginning. In the future, those nuclear submarines that were decommissioned early in Da Mao will probably be modified in this way. In this way, they can use waste and solve the problem." Power problem."

The old man's military expenditure is too tight. The Northern Fleet is the largest fleet. Even if it receives the most funding, it is not enough to maintain its operation. Among other things, look at the Kuznetsov, even if it is equipped All the carrier-based aircraft, no training, no fuel!

  Even if there is a training base, it is useless without oil.

   "Of course we will do this deal." Qin Tao said: "However, refitting a nuclear submarine is still risky after all. Dad, we hope to lease the navy's submarine base..."

  Wu Shengli shook his head immediately: "Don't even think about it, our submarine bases are all for combat use, and it is impossible to lease them to you for use."

   No diamonds, no porcelain work, since Qin Tao has already agreed to Lao Maozi, he must have his own ideas. Now, Qin Tao actually wants to borrow the navy's submarine base to do it, of course it won't work!

"Well, it's okay if the navy doesn't agree. I originally planned to build a military-civilian joint construction and build a special nuclear submarine production base in Yalong Bay. At the same time, the base can directly lead to the nearby naval port, especially the submarines in the mountain. Where's the cave?" Qin Tao said.

  This idea caught everyone's eyes.

In the past, in order to protect the capital, all good things were first used by the northern fleet, and the southern fleet was bitter. Seeing that other fleets had advanced destroyers, they could only rely on frigates to take the lead. However, anyone with a discerning eye can It can be seen that in the future, the southern fleet will definitely be valued and will continue to expand its strength. The base there must not only be able to park destroyers and frigates, but also aircraft carriers. Not only diesel-electric submarines, but also nuclear submarines! The best base for a nuclear submarine is a mountain cave with direct access to waterways.

  If Mingzhou Group starts to build a special nuclear submarine production plant there, it means that the nuclear submarines produced can be put into service directly, and the outside world will never know.

  However... After all, this project is still too large, and the Navy needs special planning.

"It's not enough for now, you should use your own one-acre three-point land first." Wu Shengli said: "Didn't your Mingzhou Group occupy Dalie Mountain and Xiaolie Mountain? Start working there first That's fine, anyway, Mingzhou people are no longer afraid of nuclear power plants."

On Dalie Mountain, there is a nuclear power plant of the Mingzhou Group. If a production base of a floating nuclear power plant is set up on the beach there, no one will be afraid of anything. People in Mingzhou have long been used to it. Besides, half of the entire Mingzhou Chicken farts all depend on the Mingzhou Group, who dares to object?

  Qin Tao was helpless.

The Mingzhou Group is still growing and growing. The land that was once requested by the government has now been used, and there is no room for further development. Even if all the shipyards on Chongming Island are taken over for their own use, it is still not enough. Therefore, He thought about setting up a professional shipyard again, taking advantage of the navy's east wind, and getting the land for free. It seems that the old man disagrees.

  If you don't agree, you don't agree, it's not a big deal anyway.

   "Next, I have to go to Lao Maozi's side to see which nuclear submarine the Northern Fleet is going to provide." Wu Shengli said, "I hope it's one we haven't touched before."

   "Of course we have the final say on this kind of thing. I'll go to their submarine cemetery and I'll definitely pick out a good guy from it, such as a typhoon-class nuclear submarine."

The biggest underwater monster is of course the 941 Typhoon-class nuclear submarine, which can be called an underwater super aircraft carrier. In the era of the Red Empire, a total of six Typhoon-class nuclear submarines were built, all of which were assigned to the Northern Fleet. They are the most important thing for Lao Maozi. Underwater nuclear forces.

However, after the collapse of the Red Empire, Da Mao, who had no money in his pocket, could not afford the annual maintenance cost of about 27 million yuan per ship, so he had to make three of them, TK-202, TK-12 and TK-13, one after another. Decommissioned early and sent to the shipbreaking yard.

  Da Mao's own ship breaking yard probably only has the ability to break ships, and has no strength to refit at all, so they can only turn to Mingzhou Group for help.

  As for the Hyundai-class destroyers, the Northern Fleet has also decommissioned several ships. Anyway, they will be rusted after being exposed to the sun and wind in the port. It is better to give them to the Orientals directly.

  However, even so, he still felt that Lao Maozi was too self-willed. A few days later, when Qin Tao stood at the port of Kola Port and looked at the old acquaintance in front of him, Qin Tao finally understood something.

   "Nicolas, aren't you in charge of the Pacific Fleet? Why did you come to the Northern Fleet?" Qin Tao looked at Nicholas curiously.

Behind Nicholas, followed by Uskimenko and Yarekin, all old acquaintances who had been in contact with Qin Tao. Just looking at these people, Qin Tao felt a little surprised, not to mention seeing Nikolai .

   "Qin, that happened in the past. Now, I have been promoted. This time I am here to inspect the Northern Fleet."

  Qin Tao suddenly understood.

  The Northern Fleet lacks power supply, but that doesn't mean dismantling the nuclear submarine and remodeling it for the Mingzhou Group. This is all promoted by Nikolai! In the last nuclear submarine rescue, Qin Tao helped Nikolai a lot. Of course, Nikolai also wants to repay Qin Tao. Since Qin Tao likes to have a modern class, he should give Qin Tao one more.

   Converting a nuclear submarine into a floating power station is definitely a win-win outcome. Nicholas knows that Qin Tao will definitely make a lot of money in the process.

   "That's really good news, congratulations! I didn't prepare any gifts for you. Tonight, let's drink together, it's mine!" Qin Tao was very generous.

Nicholas nodded: "Of course, we have to have a good drink, but now, let's settle the matter first. There are a lot of nuclear submarines waiting to be dismantled. We need to choose two of them. The second half is modified, Qin, what do you think is suitable?"

   "It goes without saying, of course, the power is higher, the bigger the better." Qin Tao said: "In this way, we can provide sufficient power supply. It is best to use the same power device as the 949, which is also convenient for us to modify."

  It's the same as Type 949, need I say it?

   That is typhoon level!

"If you want to say the most powerful, it is the Type 941 nuclear submarine. Like the Type 949, it uses two VM-5 pressurized water reactors, an OK-650B steam generator, and an OK-9 steam turbine. They are all of the same type. It's also convenient for you to refit.” Uskimenko said: “Just in time, we have decommissioned three ships here.”

  The world's largest Typhoon-class nuclear submarine, only six were built in total. As a result, three of them were decommissioned because they couldn't afford it!

  Looking at the huge back exposed in the submarine cemetery, Qin Tao was also moved with emotion.

In fact, although the Typhoon-class nuclear submarine has a large displacement, the number of missiles carried is not as large as that of the Ohio-class. This is because the technology of the Da Mao missile is backward. However, due to the large displacement, it can withstand the recoil of two salvos. The twenty missiles it carries can be fired in ten salvos, an ability unmatched by other submarines.

  Unfortunately, the sunset of the empire has come.

   "These three nuclear submarines haven't cut the tail section yet?" Qin Tao asked curiously: "I remember, didn't you announce to the public that this nuclear submarine has been sent to the ship breaking yard?"

"Yes, due to the serious shortage of the processing capacity of abandoned nuclear reactors, these nuclear submarines can only be placed here for the time being. After the nuclear reactors are dismantled, they can enter the shipbreaking yard. Because of this, they have new uses," Uskimenko continued.

   "Then we need to send professionals to step on the nuclear submarine, check it internally, and select two suitable ones." Qin Tao made this request.

  Uskimenko frowned, and before he could speak, Nicholas nodded: "Of course it's no problem, just check in the second half, don't go to the front, we will send people to follow you and supervise the whole process."

   "Don't worry, my old friend, we won't cause trouble for you, but the valuable things on it must have been removed long ago, right?"

Uskimenko was a little embarrassed. Qin Tao was right. They were so harsh on Qin Tao, but it was actually unnecessary, because the management of the submarine cemetery was very lax, and people often came here to dismantle valuable parts. It's just a drink.

"Nicolas, you should do more research on the book of Unrestricted Warfare." Qin Tao said, "It's fine if you just remove some common parts, but if you remove some special parts, such as radioactive ones, the It is dangerous for some people to use it to do that kind of disgusting stuff."

  The smile on Nicholas' face froze, and he thought seriously: "Yes, you are right! This is indeed a big trouble, Qin, thanks to your reminder, otherwise we would not have thought of it."

   "Yes, we have to send more people to take care of this place." Uskimenko also became serious, Qin Tao was right! Those damned desperate guys might really come here to steal special parts, but this kind of thing can't be allowed to happen!

   "We have a saying in the East, which is called being a thief for a thousand days. It is impossible to prevent a thief for a thousand days. It is impossible to prevent it by relying on defense. It is better to deal with the key parts of these nuclear submarines as soon as possible."

deal with?

  How to deal with it?

  Nicolas looked at Qin Tao: "Qin, do you have a solution?"

   "If there are still some nuclear submarine reactors with a lifespan of more than ten years, we might as well renovate them." Qin Tao said: "In this way, there will be no thieves to steal."

   "But, we don't have any more scrapped 956 destroyers to exchange!" Nikolai said.

  The Hyundai class is actually their main warship, and they cannot be eliminated in large quantities. Even, because the Hyundai class burns boilers and consumes very little, it will become their backbone for a long time.

   There are also other scrapped warships, but Qin Tao should not look down on them. If they exchange them in this way, they can take advantage of Qin Tao. Nicholas doesn't want to treat his old friend badly.

"It can be sold!" Qin Tao said: "Push it to the international market to see if there are any buyers. Some countries that are close to the ocean and lack energy should have ideas. You can also arrange it on the Arctic route. A necessary place to serve as a source of power supply to and from ship rescue bases."

  Nicolas nodded: "Yes, this is a good way! Let's announce it to the public first to see if any buyers come to the door."

"When selling to customers, we must explain the advantages of offshore floating power stations. For example, in case of accidents, they will be towed away at any time, so that we can not only obtain energy, but also avoid possible threats." Qin Tao said: " If the publicity is in place, maybe the Germans may purchase it."
