Chapter 893: Calculation
A total of nine "Leahy" class missile cruisers were built in the United States, and the first ship, the "Raisi", started construction in December 1959, was launched in July 1961, and was commissioned in August 1962, and is now deployed in the Pacific Fleet.
This class of ships adopts the type of long-bow ship, with a straight and inclined bow and a bulbous nose sonar shallow under the bow. In order to prevent the corrosion of weapons and electronic equipment by smoke damage, the "Raisi" class for the first time adopted an integrated chimney and mast structure.
The ship is 162.5 meters long, 16.6 meters wide, 7.6 meters draft, standard displacement of 5,670 tons, full load displacement of 8,203 tons, power plant using two steam turbines, the steam turbine is made of chromium-molybdenum and nickel alloy steel, suitable for working in the harsh environment of high temperature and high pressure, and light weight and good reliability.
The "Raisi" class ships are equipped with ship-to-air, ship, and anti-submarine missiles: two quadruple "Harpoon" ship-to-ship missiles, two MK-10 SM-2ER "Standard" ship-to-air missiles, and eight MK-16 "Asroc" antisubmarine missiles, and two MK-32 torpedo launchers are also arranged on both sides of the middle of the ship.
In addition, there are two 30-mm "Phalanx" short-range defense weapon systems. The ship is fully equipped with electronic equipment and has strong communication capabilities. As one of the components of the ship-to-air carrier formation, the "Raisi" class has the primary mission of air defense operations, followed by anti-submarine operations, and can be used to support amphibious operations.
This is one of the oldest warships in the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleet of the United States, so it will be left behind, plus the main task of the Leahy-class missile cruiser is air defense, so in the face of the giant octopus monster, although the United States soldiers on the Leahy-class missile cruiser are very brave to fight the giant octopus monster, but the Leahy-class missile cruiser did not hold out for even five minutes.
Soon only a large amount of oil and some living materials were left on the sea, as well as hundreds of surviving American soldiers. The giant octopus monster that had just been in full swing disappeared again, and the other soldiers who had fallen behind them on the warships of the United States and Europe began to pray, hoping that God would bless them.
It's a pity that they don't know that this is China's territory, so it is absolutely impossible for their God to bless them, on the contrary, China's God is ready to recover some of the interest that these countries have made against China in this century, and these warships, this time it is impossible to escape!
England before the forties of the last century. It is a well-deserved boss in the world, at that time, the rice flag of the British country fluttered in all corners of the world, and no country dared to challenge the British country lightly, but after the Second World War, the British country completely declined.
The United States, a rising country of the same race as the United Kingdom, completely replaced the British Kingdom on the earth. Until now, the United States has been the overlord of the earth. And the British kingdom fell after the Second World War. However, Britain always wanted to restore its pre-World War II strength, so it still invested a considerable amount of money in the manufacture of warships, and its naval strength ranked first in the world.
Conventionally powered aircraft carriers. Missile cruisers, missile destroyers, submarines, etc., these ships are not numerous, albeit in number. But the modern equipment on it is still very perfect. This time, in the military confrontation in the Treasure Island Strait, the British side sent two Type 45 destroyers, and the Type 45 destroyer is the most advanced ship among the missile destroyers currently in service in the United Kingdom.
The Type 45 Destroyer or Daring Class Destroyer, named after its lead ship, is a new generation of anti-aircraft missile destroyers under the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom.
Focusing on the PAAMS missile system, this class of ships is equipped with excellent performance Sampson phased array radar and S1850M long-range radar, and the epoch-making use of the integrated electric propulsion system (IEP) makes this class of ships one of the most cutting-edge destroyers in service in the world.
The number of destroyers/frigates has been reduced from 31 to 25, and the number of Type 45 ships has also been affected, from 12 to 6, and on December 30, 2013, the last Type 45 Duncan (HMS Duncan) was officially included in the Royal Navy, and the current construction plan of this class has ended.
The Type 45 destroyer is currently the most advanced destroyer in the United Kingdom, with a full load displacement of 7,350 tons, equipped with a series of advanced systems such as Sampson phased array radar, integrated navigation system, CMS combat management system, 3D anti-air surveillance radar, bow active and passive intermediate frequency sonar, etc., equipped with a vertically launched "Aster 15/30" anti-aircraft missile, a 114 mm main gun, two "phalanx" close defense guns, two 30 mm machine guns, two twin 324 mm torpedo tubes, and so on.
However, the biggest advantage of the Type 45 destroyer is its groundbreaking integrated all-electric propulsion system (FEP).
The integrated all-electric propulsion system consists of two Royce WR-21 gas turbines (21.5 MW each, 28,800 hp), each of which drives a 21 MW alternating main generator. The two propeller thrusters are each directly driven by a 20MW (27,000 hp) Converteam propulsion motor.
In addition to the main turbine generators, there are two sets of 2MW Wartsila diesel auxiliary generators.
In the conventional propulsion system, the ship's main engine is directly connected to the propeller propeller through the guò reduction gearbox, while the electric propulsion system of the Type 45 breaks this direct coupling relationship.
The main gas turbine only drives the main generator, and the power from the auxiliary diesel generator is transmitted to the integrated transmission and distribution network, which is controlled by the digitalized integrated transmission and distribution system, and the motor that drives the propeller thruster will serve as a terminal of this system.
In addition, at high speeds, the main engine uses the main power for the propulsion motor, while the auxiliary diesel generator can provide propulsion at low speeds, as well as provide power for the ship's auxiliary systems, so that the main gas turbine can save fuel.
It can be seen that the electric propulsion system of the Type 45 destroyer is a revolutionary product, which is significantly ahead of the active destroyers in various countries around the world. At present, only the latest DDG-1000 "Zumwalt" class destroyers in the United States and the "Queen Elizabeth" class aircraft carriers under construction in the United Kingdom have adopted this system.
The comprehensive performance of the Type 45 destroyer is second only to the world's second most advanced destroyer after the United States' Ali Burke-class destroyer, the power system is currently the world's most advanced all-electric power system, and the radar uses the best SAMPSON active phased array radar at present, which has extremely high resolution and strong anti-jamming ability.
It can be said that Britain is already very sincere in sending two Type 45 destroyers this time, and of course, there is also the intention of Britain to curry favor with the United States.
Although Britain's warships are very advanced, compared with the 13 nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets of the United States, the number of British warships is not only far inferior to that of the United States, but even the comprehensive strength of the warships is lower than that of the United States.
If Britain wants to gradually regain its former majesty on the earth, it must first take a good picture of the current overlord on the earth, so that the British can have more opportunities to participate in various affairs on the earth and show their existence.
It's a pity that the British country obviously overdid it this time, and it is also possible that the United States also knew the plans of the British country, so I want to teach this disobedient little brother with careful thoughts in my heart.
When the two nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets of the United States fled, they fled with the British warships, and the British warships were very gentlemanly to give up the channel of the warships for fear of the sycophants of the United States, so that the warships of the United States could evacuate first.
In the opinion of the commander of this British naval detachment, although the strength of the giant octopus monster is indeed powerful, it is still so far from him that it is still thirty or forty nautical miles, and if they want to escape, they will not have time.
After losing three nuclear-powered aircraft carrier fleets, the United States did not disclose the details of their battle with the four-headed giant octopus monster, so the extremely high underwater parade speed of the giant octopus monster and its strong tracking ability are unknown to those countries outside, and the United Kingdom is of course no exception.
A large part of the British country's understanding of the information of the giant octopus monster is based on the octopus to guess, of course, the British country still knows that the giant octopus monster has an energy shield around its body, and it can also launch energy to attack these news, but it is completely unknown about the other information of the giant octopus monster.
Therefore, this British squad stopped on the sea in such a big way, and it was very gentlemanly to let the warships of the United States evacuate first, thinking that this would get the favor of the United States naval fleet.
As everyone knows, the people in those Mi fleets are actually looking at the British fleet's small fleet with the eyes of fools, and they have seen people looking for death, but they have never seen people looking for death with a smile on their faces, but from now on, they can go back and tell others that they have seen it, because these British warships are not like this now.
"General, should we inform this British detachment, in European affairs, the British is one of the most important chess pieces of our country, if this detachment is lost here, the Prime Minister and the royal family of the British Kingdom will be extremely dissatisfied, and when the time comes, we will be in trouble. General, you see ....... (To be continued......)
