Chapter 1277 - Going to Colombia?
Absolutely good ship, the hull itself is actually a reference to the original Soviets provided design advice and the Finns built the deep diving research mother ship.
The United States is the first in the world in terms of the number of scientific research ships, and the Soviet Union is the second, but if it is judged in terms of size, quality, and scientific and technological gold content, the Soviet Union can squeeze the United States out of the scientific research ships!
The use of Russian equipment is not only because it is easy to use, but also for a greater reason: such equipment related to deep diving, except for which the Russians will sell, don't even think about getting it from other countries!
Scientific research ships at the national level need to have various research rooms and scientific research instruments, and the number of scientific research personnel on board will even be more than that of the crew.
The "Deep Diver" has almost no need for scientific research, he is the boss's big toy, plus it has become a professional deep-sea salvage ship of the Star Salvage Company, and it can also be rented out for a short time, if the person who wants to rent has a good relationship with Zhang Nan.
The necessary crew plus divers are less than 100 people, and enough cabins can be reserved for the accommodation of passengers who may embark on the voyage, and it can also be luxurious.
The whole ship can meet the needs of 130 people for 90 days, and it is comfortable enough.
Russians account for more than half of the crew and professional divers, and most of the equipment added to the ship is customized from the Soviet Union and delivered from Russia, and the Maozi are the most handy to use.
Good ship, there is a helipad and hangar on it, and it is prepared with the same type of Ka-32 heavy helicopter carried by the "Seeker".
The guy with a maximum take-off weight of more than 12 tons and the ability to lift five tons of heavy objects over short distances is, of course, a heavy helicopter, but this helicopter is not large in size, and the reason for its special structure is the same.
The helicopter was the last stop for Zhang Nan to inspect his new ship, after which he and 11 other people boarded the helicopter to the nearby "Searcher."
There are 15 detachable seats in the cabin, which are not full.
Not for the sake of the spectrum, just to feel the feeling of riding this coaxial reversing blade rotor helicopter: taking off on the ship, landing on the ship, not many people have really tried it.
The most interesting thing is that the pilot on board was not allowed to carry out this mission, and Andrei and Kirill made a cameo as the first and second pilot, and in the blink of an eye, the helicopter landed on the flight platform of the "Seeker".
There were already two Ka-32s in the hangar of the "Searcher", and the full-time pilot who came by helicopter plane together planned to fly the helicopter back, and Zhang Nan asked him to talk about it later.
The plane took off just now, Zhang Nan felt that the noise of this card 32 was not stingy, not to mention the Black Hawk VIP helicopter that he had specially modified, it seemed to be a little more noisy than the Bell 205.
And the appearance of this cabin is really awkward, the pipelines are all exposed, it is a civilian version of the helicopter, but this interior is still a proper military smell.
The layout of the pipelines is ugly, and a person accidentally thinks that he is drilling into a laundry room, or a water distribution room.
Whatever the boss said, Zhang Nan even slowed down the matter of looking at the "Searcher", and asked the aviation technician on the ship to open some of the plane's detection ports.
In my last life, I heard a legend: Maozi's truck helicopter has some rough and simple craftsmanship, which can make people feel outrageous!
Pipelines are like cobwebs, which is normal, airplanes are like this, regardless of the country that made them, and the electrical units are densely packed, and a bunch of buttons can make people with dense phobia shy away and dazzled
The cockpit design and man-machine efficacy are still complete, but there are also a lot of instruments and buttons, and if the pilot wants to memorize them all, he must have a good memory!
Well, this is a helicopter, and the American one is actually not much better, that is, it looks a little more glamorous on the outside.
An airplane with a dead weight of only six and a half tons can lift goods weighing about 5 tons, and it can be called a flying crane, which is very good.
There are also two pontoons under the helicopter, which can be inflated and opened within 3 seconds, which can ensure that the helicopter stays on the surface for 10-15 minutes before taking off.
It is designed for the marine environment and is most suitable for ships at sea.
Poor workmanship?
People call it practical.
Zhang Nan has prepared two Ka-32s for the "Searcher", and it is really possible that he will take his own scientific research icebreaker to go there in the summer of Antarctica.
If you want to go to Antarctica, Namaozi's boats and helicopters are the most suitable, they are designed for the Russian alpine region.
For example, the Ka 32 can operate in extremely bad weather, with very strong low temperature resistance, wind resistance and corrosion resistance, and the requirements for the landing site are not harsh.
The plane is good, the "Seeker" is even better.
It was originally a multi-purpose transport ship in the Arctic region, and more than 20 million dollars were smashed, and the shipyard upgraded the ship, which was actually quite new.
All the equipment and facilities above the main deck have been updated, and several clean laboratories with an area of more than 200 square meters have been retained, but no equipment has been updated for the time being.
Zhang Nan is private, but some of his companies will need these laboratories in the future, such as oil companies.
The 21,000-ton ship included not only helicopters, but also transport boats, and even small barges.
The ship can work normally in the severe cold climate of minus 40C, and the ice-breaking ability is also strong, and it can also transport necessary general cargo, large heavy cargo and various vehicles, refrigerated cargo, valuable cargo, explosives, minerals, standard containers...
Versatile, it can do whatever you want.
Zhang Nan also visited the internal cabin, where the ordinary crew and staff are two people in one room, each of which looks like a 10-square-meter bathroom, with central air conditioning, a 24-hour hot water supply toilet, a refrigerator, a wardrobe, a writing desk, etc.
The "Explorer" also has a swimming pool, an indoor basketball court, a library, a gym, a laundry room, and an operating room.
Boats can sail all over the planet, cold regions are a strong point, and long working hours in the tropics is no problem.
The machinery and equipment could have been adapted, and the ship was a Soviet-built ship in the Arctic Ocean, and there was no cold air conditioning on it!
So it has to be changed, otherwise the ship will be used as a toy by Zhang Nan without modification, and the company will use it to search for shipwrecks and oil on the bottom of the sea, then the people above will suffer.
More than 20 million US dollars are not spent in vain, and the installation is central air conditioning, which will not be engaged in "hang-up air conditioning" in the member cabin or cockpit.
However, the equipment on the "Seeker" was still not fully equipped, and there were only unmanned deep-diving probes on board, and Zhang Nan actually ordered three "Peace".
The place is reserved, which will not have time to be delivered.
But Zhang Nan doesn't care, anyway, it is unlikely that he will go into the deep submersible to wander around a few thousand meters deep, and he will not think of going to the bottom of the sea to join in the fun when he sets off for the high seas near Colombia in two days, where the water depth can be hundreds of meters.
To buy a boat, you have to find a way to earn back the money you spent, and the "Big Shark" has been around there for two months before, and there is something to discover.
