If Ma Wei remembers correctly, the USS Liaolu was completed in 2011 and commissioned on September 25, 2012.

The reason why it took so long was because the original Chuanglu Group spent 20 million US dollars to buy this half-finished aircraft carrier from the Ukrainian Navy. It is intended to be towed back and continued to be completed by the Dailian Shipyard.

However, considering shipbuilding technology and other issues, the aircraft carrier that the Black Sea Shipyard can complete in three years will be even more time-consuming and laborious when it comes to the Dalian Shipyard. There is time to study, and after learning, there is also time to explore on your own. Lay the foundation for independent research and development of aircraft carriers in the future......

"Can it be completed in three years?" asked Mr. Yuan Kaimin, following Ma Wei's words. I have to say that this time is very tempting.

"Yes, Mr. Yuan Kaimin. Ma Wei nodded lightly, this time he received the Chinese Navy, not for business purposes.

Just take them on a tour, tell about the Varyag aircraft carrier inside the shipyard.

And then there are the two "modern" class 956 destroyers parked at the dock of the shipyard at this time. These two large destroyers were also specially prepared by Ma Wei to receive the Chinese Navy.

In addition to aircraft carriers, destroyers are also an important part of demonstrating national strength and guarding the country's territorial waters. In the naval fleet, destroyers have always been medium-sized warships with relatively strong assault power.

It is equipped with a variety of weapons such as air defense, anti-submarine, and sea resistance, and can serve as an offensive assault mission in naval ship formations. It can also undertake the tasks of air defense and anti-submarine escort of combat formations. It can be said to be an all-round type of ship.

"Mr. Yuan Kaimin, have you ever learned about our Russian and Ukrainian Type 956 modern-class missile destroyers? If you are interested in this, maybe I can take you aboard the ship to experience its demeanor?"

Ma Wei asked the Chinese naval officers beside him with a smile. As for the visit of the compatriots of the motherland, he naturally wants to be perfect. By the way, within the scope of our ability, we will give our compatriots a certain amount of support and assistance. I believe that when the time comes, it will definitely be a spring of reciprocation.

"Type 956 destroyer?" After listening to Ma Wei's invitation, Mr. Yuan Kaimin, his eyes lit up and repeated.

The Varyag aircraft carrier, although shocking, is at best an aircraft carrier that cannot be commissioned. You can only see it, but you can't appreciate its strength in person.

On the contrary, the Type 956 modern-class missile destroyer, it is completely different. This is a Soviet service battleship with very strong firepower and penetration. As a member of the Navy, there is no reason why you would turn down such a tempting invitation.

"Mr. Mavi, it is our honor to be able to see the Type 956 missile destroyer. At this time, Mr. Yuan Kaimin, a senior admiral beside him, nodded to Ma Wei and said.

Since the officers arrived at the Ukrainian airport, their impression of Mavi has been very good. I always feel that he, a Russian, understands Chinese culture very well and respects China. From treating people to gestures, you can see that Ma Wei is a very self-contained person.

Now at the Black Sea shipyard, Mavi is taking them to visit the aircraft carrier and preparing the missile destroyer to board the ship. It's really painstaking, and it leaves a strong impression on people.

They will always keep this good feeling in their hearts. If Ma Wei needs help one day in the future, they will definitely do their best to help him solve the problem within the scope of their ability......

Ten minutes later, when Ma Wei led the crowd, he came to the dock of the Black Sea Shipyard. I saw two magnificent "Type 956 modern-class missile destroyers", which were domineering in front of everyone!

The Type 956 large destroyer, with a full load displacement of 8,000 tons and a rough and majestic hull design, can be called the strongest anti-ship and anti-aircraft combat power among the destroyers of the Soviet Navy in the 80s!

Whether it is overall size, seaworthiness, survivability, firepower, etc., it surpasses the previously built Type 1134 cruisers.

"Mr. Yuan Kaimin, let me first introduce these two Type 956 missile destroyers. On both sides of the bow are two sets of quadruple SS-N-22 "Rixi" anti-ship missile launchers. The A and Y gun emplacements each had a double-barreled 130mm naval gun. B and X gun emplacements, each equipped with an SA-N-7 "Hurricane" single-arm anti-aircraft missile launch arm ......"

Ma Wei said to Yuan Kaimin and the admirals. According to the memory of the previous life, Russia has nearly 2.5 billion US dollars in destroyer orders, all of which come from China.

So this time the Black Sea Shipyard, if it receives a super order, it will inevitably be divided into a part and given to the Russian Navy shipyard. This was discussed by Ma Wei in advance, and it was also agreed by both parties by default.

After all, the interests of Ukraine and Russia can only be closely tied together. In this way, the two brothers will not be easy to be sow discord by other countries.

The officers of the Chinese Navy, while listening to Ma Wei's introduction, looked at the two modern-class destroyers in front of them, and deeply felt the strong military power of the former Soviet Union. It's awe-inspiring and envious!

If their navy can be equipped with destroyers of this class, then their strength will increase a lot. I believe that when the time comes, the group of naval soldiers in the fleet will be very excited.

It's just that what they don't know is that the two Type 956 destroyers in front of them are only a small part of this greeting. When the ships sail into the Black Sea, the scale and formation that will appear at that time. It will definitely make everyone feel deeply shocked......

"Ma Wei, why did the Ukrainian Navy specially prepare two Type 956 destroyers?

Ma Wei smiled after hearing this, Jiang deserved to be old and spicy, so he explained to everyone and said, "Mr. Yuan Kaimin, this is the case, in order to welcome everyone's arrival, the Ukrainian Navy, together with our Russian Navy, is preparing to hold a large-scale joint military exercise in the Black Sea region. ”

"In order to let you better watch this exercise, we will divide it into two batches and go to sea with two Type 956 destroyers. ”

As soon as Ma Wei's words fell, the naval officers standing in front of him suddenly looked at each other in a stunned manner! It can be seen from the expressions of everyone that they did not expect that they would be able to see the joint military exercises of the Ukrainian and Russian navies during this visit!

This level of welcoming ceremony is really amazing! If the news is transmitted back to China, it will certainly make the people feel extremely proud and proud...... At the same time, the friendship between Ukraine, Russia, and China will also be even stronger! After all, Mavi said that this drill was specially held to welcome them...... This scale of greeting is really super powerful!
