The first look of this battleship is sci-fi.

It adopts a fully stealthy three-body floating island structure design, the middle hull has a connecting double deck, the second deck has two emergency cross take-off ducts that can take off directly from the hangar, the top deck can ensure eight fighter take-offs and landings at the same time, and at the stern of the second deck, there is a vertical take-off and landing deck for helicopters.

In general, although the central hull of this battleship is more sci-fi, it still adopts an ordinary aircraft carrier design, and only the double take-off and landing decks are eye-catching.

But on the sub-hulls on either side of the central hull, its design is somewhat surprising.

The rear of both sub-hulls is a large helicopter take-off and landing platform, which can ensure the take-off and landing of three helicopters at the same time. In the middle is a fully stealth ship island similar to the Zumwalt-class, which integrates various antennas such as phased array radar and satellite communications, and on the top of the ship island, it has a high-power laser air defense weapon system in four directions.

In front of the island are two stealth turrets, which, according to everyone's speculation, should be the legendary electromagnetic railgun.

Unlike the Zumwalt-class, this battleship does not have any missile vertical module on board.

Seeing that everyone in the conference room couldn't take their eyes off it, Chen Xin smiled slightly, and clicked twice in the void with his hand, and soon, the sci-fi battleship in the holographic 3D projection was divided into three parts at once.

Chen Xin said: "My colleagues named this battleship the Kunlun-class aircraft-carrying cruiser, which has a total length of 330 meters and a width of 250 meters. With a displacement of 110,000 tons, the overall structure consists of three main parts, namely one main hull and two sub-hulls. Its main hull is no different from that of an ordinary aircraft carrier, which can park 150 fixed-wing fighters and helicopters, has 10 take-off runways and electromagnetic catapults, and can eject all fighters into the air within 10 minutes. In addition, at the rear of the main hull, there is a large dock, which can be used for four unmanned mini-submarines and four unmanned stealth attack boats, which can be used for long-range vigilance, special operations, and small-scale armed suppression and other tasks. As for defensive weapons. The central hull has only four low-powered laser cannons for short-range defense, and no other superfluous weapons are mounted. ”

"Of course, the real key part of the Kunlun-class aircraft-carrying cruiser is still on the two sub-hulls......"

Chen Xin paused and continued: "These two sub-hulls are Kunlun-class power centers. Command center and weapons center. It has four high-power nuclear reactors and an 800-ton Golden Dragon battery. It provides power support for ten electromagnetic catapults, four electromagnetic railguns, and twelve laser cannons on board. Its high-power phased array radar can monitor targets within a radius of 800 kilometers, and these offensive and defensive weapon systems can be hidden, hatches can be closed, and the entire ship can sail semi-submersible. When semi-submersible, the radar reflection cross section of the Kunlun-class is only comparable to that of a fishing vessel with a displacement of several hundred tons......"

Then. Chen Xin also gave an in-depth introduction to the Kunlun's power system, weapon system, radar system, communication system, stealth system, weapon system, etc., and even the design principles of some key technologies were explained to a certain extent, so that everyone can understand that this super battleship is not a product designed by a military fan.

Especially when it comes to the four electromagnetic railguns on the Kunlun, Chen Xin made a key introduction.

"The barrel of the Kunlun electromagnetic railgun consists of two parallel rails about 6 meters long, connected by a smooth rotor, and the current flows out of one track, through the rotor and back from the other, this circuit generates a magnetic field to push the rotor, which in turn pushes the shells located in front of the rotor out of the track. ”

Generally speaking, the range of ordinary naval guns is only 20 kilometers, and the accuracy is very poor, although the effective range of cruise missiles exceeds 300 kilometers, they are expensive, and a ship can only carry a maximum of 70 pieces, because it cannot be loaded and unloaded at sea, it must be returned to the port when replenishing. Electromagnetic railguns are highly expected by countries around the world for their long range, low cost, transportation and convenience of replenishment.

However, the technical difficulties of electromagnetic railguns are also well known, and the biggest problem is that there is no warship that can generate and store the electrical energy required to fire the guns. Generally, 90% of the energy of the warship is used to supply the propulsion system, and it is impossible to provide enough energy for the electromagnetic railgun.

In addition, the challenges faced by the electromagnetic railgun include: high-precision control technology to ensure accurate target hitting, and the ability of the shell to withstand huge accelerations. Due to the firing range of more than 600 km, the cannon could not be aimed like an ordinary barrel, but required aerodynamic correction, and the direction of the shell had to be corrected by commands from satellites when it was in the air. At the same time, the acceleration of the shell when it is discharged is 45,000 times that of the Earth's gravity, and the electronics carried on the shell must withstand this acceleration. In addition, it was difficult to move the rotor at high speed in the barrel.

These are mountains of electromagnetic railguns, but for steel hammers, it is not a problem at all.

Chen Xindao: "When the Kunlun obtains the location coordinates of the enemy's command headquarters 500 kilometers away, it does not need to launch a Tomahawk cruise missile worth one million dollars to destroy the target, but launches a shell about 1 meter long and weighing about 20 kilograms from the superconducting electromagnetic orbit of the gun barrel, the shell comes out of the barrel at a speed of more than 11 times the speed of sound, flies out of the earth's atmosphere, and then returns to the atmosphere under the guidance of the satellite, rushing straight to the target, its speed makes it have enough momentum to make the target disappear in an instant!"

Time passed minute by minute, Chen Xin spoke for more than two hours unconsciously, except for his voice in the conference room, no one interrupted his speech, everyone listened attentively, even the commander of the navy, General Wu Anguo.

It was not until the end that Chen Xin concluded: "All in all, the Kunlun aircraft-carrying cruiser itself integrates all the forces of an aircraft carrier battle group without the need for additional escort warships to cooperate with the operation (except for submarines), and in wartime, this flexibility is beyond the reach of American aircraft carriers." In addition, according to the current exchange rate estimates, if the aircraft on the Kunlun are not included, the cost of this warship is only $10 billion, which is much cheaper than the US aircraft carrier battle group, and the operating cost is only one-fifth of that of the average aircraft carrier battle group.......
