1036 To Nanhai, we need a cruise ship (3/7)
"......" Xie Kai didn't know what to express at this moment.
Of the 905 supply ships in the country, 4 have been built so far, one of which is for the Pakistan Navy.
Now there are three ships left in the country, and they basically don't have much effect in peacetime.
If you go to the small pond in the South China Sea, the maximum speed of this thing is only 18.5 knots, and the maximum speed of a frigate can reach 26 knots, it can't run at all. Even with a cruising speed of only 18 knots, the 905 Navy Nurse had to use the best strength to barely keep up.
"If your 053H2 does not have a supply ship, it can only run 2,700 nautical miles on its own sake, which is not enough to go from here to the very edge of your country's southern territorial waters. Not to mention the fresh water reserves on the 053 ship, which are too small. Our officers and men could not adapt to bathing in seawater, the supply of fresh water was insufficient, and their physical strength could not keep up......"
Lieutenant Colonel Yevrola said solemnly.
In a word, if there were no navy nurses to follow and constantly provide fresh water and other supplements to the 537 Zhoushan, which had just been launched and had not yet been handed over to the PLA Navy for service, they would not have done it.
Xie Kai was speechless when he heard it.
The condition of the 053 ship is really not very good, and it will not improve a lot until 053H3.
And now the model they named H3 is actually similar to the original 053H2G, except that the firepower is much stronger.
In these years, many technologies on warships are still solved by manpower, and even the advanced warships of Europe and the United States are also in such a state.
If technology wants to break through, it must wait, and all technical systems can be solved by a comprehensive breakthrough.
Like many foreign naval guns, even if there is an automatic loading mechanism, it is necessary to transport shells from the ammunition warehouse to the ammunition rack.
There are too many technical equipment, and even more personnel are needed to maintain the safe and smooth operation of technical equipment.
In such a situation, it seems normal for Saudi personnel to ask for supply ships to accompany them, but this is not the style of the army.
"Lieutenant Colonel, do you need to be accompanied by a cruise ship?" Xie Kai asked angrily.
I don't know if Yevrola didn't hear the mockery in his words or something else, so she nodded immediately, "That's just right!"
Xie Kai couldn't wait to hit his head directly.
But when he saw the 537 ship listening to the base port, he suddenly felt that the Saudi Arabian side's request was not as excessive as he imagined.
The Saudi Navy was built almost from scratch, originally only a few small gunboats and patrol boats, and the number of personnel on them was not very large, and most of the officers of the navy had the experience of studying in Europe and the United States, and there were not many professional personnel.
At the same time as arranging personnel to go to China to receive training in ship operation, Saudi Arabia has also arranged for personnel to go to Europe and the United States to learn ship command and other things.
The reason for buying warships in China is that China's warships just meet their needs, and if we talk about the combat experience of the navy or something, the Chinese navy has almost nothing to get it to.
At the same time, 4 warships were purchased, and according to the staffing of 053H2, 130 people are required to operate on one warship.
With the addition of the weapon system, the number of operators rose directly to 150, of which 40 were officers, and generally above were technical officers.
Saudi Arabia does not continue to order, if you want four warships to leave at the same time, then there will be a large number of backbones to train, and before delivery, more naval soldiers will come to train.
The backbone of the first batch of submarines was trained at the northern base, while here was the training of officers and men operating ships, with a total of 200 people.
Many of them have no experience, although their educational qualifications are relatively high, but they have not mastered any professional foundation at all, and these guys do not have the hard-working spirit of the officers and men of the PLA Navy, as long as they are a little tired and hard, they are not willing to continue.
Not to mention anything to learn day and night in order to understand the technology and operation that you don't understand.
200 people, divided into four batches, each group of 50 people, these are the backbone of each warship in the future, involving each post.
"There are so many people, there is only one ship, and there are indeed few. Xie Kai was a little speechless.
Especially after he got on the 537 ship, he personally felt the crowding and harsh environment inside the battleship, and he somewhat understood the feelings of the Saudi officers and soldiers.
"When there is no practical training on the ship, I usually train basic operations on the basic training ship. Only the training of technical arms, this basic training has not been built a lot ......," explained Major Yu Haitao.
The Saudis' request is not excessive.
The conditions are too poor.
Chinese are hard-working and can endure any harsh environment.
"In the previous training, the supply ship followed, rotated, and a group of people practiced training, and the rest of the people practiced on the supply ship and the training ship behind it...... Yu Haitao explained.
"Thanks, our request is not excessive, is it? I wanted to lease another warship for training, but you refused. Jevrola said dissatisfied.
"They are all on active duty, how can they be loaned to them?" Yu Haitao said hurriedly.
Xie Kai also understands.
It is impossible for an active warship to be leased to other countries for training purposes, even if it is not performing well. It is impossible to train one's own officers and men or to be on duty for combat readiness.
China's huge maritime frontier does not have many warships that can be used, and the patrol and garrison tasks are already intense, so it is naturally impossible to lease them.
Even the 537 in front of him has not yet been delivered to the Navy, and the outfitting has just been completed directly from the shipyard, and the sea trials have not yet been completed, otherwise, it is impossible to use it for the training of officers and men of the Saudi Navy.
"What now?" Yu Haitao asked Xie Kai.
He was a little aggrieved and a little dissatisfied.
The superiors asked them to cooperate with the people of Hudong Shipyard, and Saudi Arabia purchased 4 053 ships and two submarines.
The service must be done thoughtfully.
"Let Nanyun-950 follow them. These are the financiers, maybe they can sell two more supply ships when the time comes. Xie Kai could only comfort himself like this.
The Nanyun-950 is the third of the 905 supply ships, and according to the original history, if nothing else, it will be decommissioned next year and handed over to ocean-going caravans to transport oil.
The final fate of a supply ship becomes a transport ship, and no one can bear to see it.
Even if it's a supply ship, that's a warship.
What's more, a large warship with a full load displacement of more than 21,000 tons?
It's not that Xie Kai likes to measure warships by displacement tonnage, with the use of high-strength superalumin alloy inside warships, in order to increase the space inside the warship, reduce weight, and displacement to measure warships, it is no longer accurate.
The problem is that China does not have warships with large displacement.
Now it is still the 051 of the navy, and the full load displacement is only 3670 tons, which is not at all like the era that Xie Kai is most familiar with, the largest naval warship must be the aircraft carrier, although the navy at that time is still not rich enough, but the navy has 055 This 10,000-ton drive, as well as 052C/D, the two final displacement of more than 7500 tons of Chinese Aegis ships.
Even the 054A of the frigate has already reached 4200 tons with a full load displacement.
Now it is only possible to fill the façade with 4 Type 76 37-mm twin-mounted machine guns of the 905 supply ship.
"This will seriously slow down the speed, and it will not be able to play the role of a frigate at all, and it will not have much practical significance for them at all. Yu Haitao was anxious.
Supply ships will be a serious drag on speed.
If you want the officers and men of the Saudi Navy to master it faster, it is best to follow the actual battle.
Thousands of miles away.
This process takes several days in a row.
"We're not going to war!" Xie Kai said indifferently, "just to prepare for the ocean to the Arabian Sea." ”
"......" Yu Haitao obviously didn't believe Xie Kai's words.
There is a distance of thousands of kilometers from Shanghai to the South China Sea, and if you go at a speed of 053H2, you can reach it in about five days.
But after the addition of supply ships, it is difficult to say.
"They're training anyway. Xie Kai said.
As for the soldiers, Xie Kai knows more than everyone, and every soldier wants to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, but unfortunately, the country has no war for them at all.
What is needed for economic construction is peace and stability.
The idea of the military is absolutely contradictory to the national policy of the country.
Just like the self-defense counterattack war against Vietnam, after the invasion of the Vietnamese army, the officers and soldiers were so enthusiastic about the war that they even held their breath to fight to the Vietnamese capital in one go, and finally the country withdrew within a few days.
Although the war is not over yet, there are basically no major wars.
Making a small amount of money with peace of mind is the national policy of the country.
"Thank you very much. Yevrola looked grateful, he looked for Xie Kai, obviously not for gratitude, but to make other requests, "Xie, can you help us arrange a passenger ship to accompany the supply ship, the environment on the supply ship is not too good......
Xie Kai's eyes widened suddenly.
A sentence of MMP almost blurted out.
His previous ridicule of him, this thing is serious!
Really stupid or fake stupid?
"Lieutenant Colonel, isn't this very good? We are training, very serious military training, not sightseeing tours on cruise ships!" Xie Kai was really a little speechless.
Where did he go to find a cruise ship for these Saudi Navy officers and men?
This is a special war.
These goods in Saudi Arabia seem to be for battlefield sightseeing?
The scenery of the South China Sea, which is absolutely beautiful, although Xie Kai has never seen it.
"Only when you have a good rest can you devote more energy to your studies......," insisted Jevrola, "and if you agree, we can contact the long-distance passenger liner ourselves......"
Xie Kai really didn't know what to say.
These bastards are here for real.
"Will His Royal Highness approve it?" Xie Kai's throat was a little dry.
He knows that the local tyrants in Saudi Arabia have money, so they can't go out on missions with their warships in the future, and the supply ships will follow at any time, and then they will also take cruise ships to rest for their navy?
Or simply convert part of the dry cargo warehouse of the supply ship into a luxury lounge, so that their officers and men can keep only a few officers and men on combat duty when they are sailing on the ocean, and the supply ship will follow behind to provide support at any time?
