Having an aircraft carrier and having an aircraft carrier battle group are two different concepts. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info All over the world, the countries that have aircraft carriers are the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and the Celestial Empire. But the United States was the only one with an aircraft carrier battle group before, and now there is a Celestial Empire.

There are quite a few countries with aircraft carriers, but not many countries with aircraft carrier battle groups, why is that?

Because the aircraft carrier battle group is more high-end, the cost is greater, and the requirements for national strength are higher.

The aircraft carrier is very powerful, it is a weapon of naval warfare, but the aircraft carrier itself does not have much offensive power, and even the defense power is not good, and it needs other warships to escort it. Therefore, in general, aircraft carriers do not sail alone, and need to bring several warships to escort them, which is the way of playing in general countries.

And the aircraft carrier battle group is even better, just look at its basic establishment.

Taking the United States as an example, the composition of an aircraft carrier battle group can be called a luxurious lineup: 1~~3 aircraft carriers, 1~~2 missile cruisers, 2~~3 missile destroyers, 1 frigate, 1~~2 attack submarines, and 1~~3 supply ships.

The aircraft carrier itself is a system engineering that needs to be supported by various fields. To build an aircraft carrier battle group, the requirements are even higher, and the cost is greater, and an aircraft carrier battle group needs tens of billions of dollars.

With such high requirements, it is recognized globally that only the Celestial Empire and the United States can afford to play. Other countries can't play this kind of money-burning and demanding game.

Judging by the information revealed, our country is playing with the aircraft carrier battle group, and not with the aircraft carrier itself. Playing like the Ah San British and French woolly bears cannot meet the needs of our country, and the aircraft carrier battle group can meet the needs of our country.

Judging by the warships that our country is building now, our country is building an aircraft carrier battle group.

"Not bad. Our country is building an aircraft carrier battle group. Ge Lao smiled.

"Great." As a military fan, Ye Chen had already guessed it, but getting confirmation from Ge Lao's mouth still made him very excited and couldn't help but applaud.

"Old Ge, where have we come? How does it compare to the United States? Immediately afterwards, Ye Chen asked with great concern.

The news that I got from the mouth of Ge Lao, the chief engineer of the aircraft carrier, was the first-hand information, and it was the most accurate, Ye Chen's spirit was highly concentrated, and his ears were pricked up. If you miss a word, that's a big loss.

Xiao Lingyue's ears also pricked up, and she also wanted to know what was going on.

Ge Lao's brows furrowed, and he groaned for a while, and said: "Although our country has made great progress and is one of the two countries in the world that can play aircraft carrier battle groups, due to the short time, our accumulation is still not enough, and there is a certain gap compared with the United States. We believe that with just a little more time, we will be able to catch up. ”

Although our country had previously made some preparations in terms of aircraft carriers, the effect was not too great. Not to mention that in terms of aircraft carriers, even in terms of gas turbines, there were no successes, and we had to buy them from the United States. Later, the United States banned the sale of gas turbines to our country, and our country could not build large warships.

The real research of our country on aircraft carriers should be after the "buying". It has only been more than ten years, and although great achievements have been made, the speed at which we build ships is like dumplings, and the more we build, the bigger we build, but this time is really too short. It is unrealistic to catch up with the United States, which has hundreds of years of experience in the construction and use of aircraft carriers, in such a short period of time.

Therefore, it is reasonable that there is a gap.

"Ge Lao, this is the actual situation, it can't be solved by subjective consciousness, what we lack is time." Ye Chen smiled and comforted Ge Lao: "You can achieve such a huge achievement in such a short period of time, it is already very, very remarkable. ”

Although our country has bought back so many technologies, giving our country a higher starting point and saving our country decades of time, it is only the starting point.

These technologies have fallen behind, so backward that even Western countries have no interest in buying them.

Ge Lao, they have been able to achieve such great achievements in more than ten years, no matter how much they praise it, they can't praise it too much.

"Not bad." Zhuang Lao also came to comfort and said: "The United States is the first country in the world to test aircraft carrier-based aircraft, and it has been more than 100 years since the first country to play aircraft carriers. It will take you more than ten years to catch up with the United States, and you should praise you for this achievement. ”

"That's right." The chief cadres also agreed.

From 1910, when the United States tested carrier-based aircraft, a full hundred years have passed. The road that the United States has traveled in 100 years, we have almost completed it in just a dozen years. Although there is still a gap, the gap is not too big, and our country has already been among the two countries capable of using aircraft carrier battle groups, and this achievement is quite remarkable.

"I know this, but when I think about this disparity, I feel very uncomfortable." Ge Lao shook his head, with a look of regret, and said, "I always think that I will catch up with this gap in my lifetime." ”

"That's right." Hou Lao, these aircraft carriers, nodded heavily, with a resolute face.

Ye Chen saw it in his eyes, only to feel that his nose was sour, and he wanted to cry bitterly.

Ge Lao, these scientists, for the sake of the strength of our country, worked hard and refused to admit defeat, which is too touching.

Xiao Lingyue, a world-class demon, is also rolling tears in her good-looking eyes.

"There are many gaps we have, mainly including: First, our technical team, especially the manufacturing team, lacks experience." Ge Lao looked serious and summarized seriously.

No matter how advanced things are, they must be able to be manufactured, otherwise they will only stay on paper, which is useless. Therefore, the aircraft carrier requires not only a research and development team, but also a manufacturing team.

The Qiang-6 aircraft has such an advanced design, but our country can't build it, and in the end we can only regret it. This is a profound lesson.

"Our country did not make a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in place at one time, but to use the old sliding jump, this is to train our technical team and manufacturing team, right?" Ye Chen asked.

"That's right." Ge Lao nodded.

Our first domestically produced aircraft carrier is about to be launched, and it uses an old sliding jump take-off, which makes those foreign media who like to hack us feel as if our domestically produced aircraft carrier is useless.

Don't we know that the skid take-off is too old and inefficient? Of course we understand that, so why do we do it? That is to train our team and let the team accumulate more experience.

We are seeking stability, steady and steady.

The United States has played with aircraft carriers for more than 100 years, and it has so much experience, and its R&D team and manufacturing team have accumulated very rich experience, and we are almost blank on these two points.

Especially when it comes to the manufacturing team, we can say that there is a blank slate. I haven't even built an aircraft carrier, where is the experience? Can it not be a blank?

Therefore, it is necessary to train our team with one or two aircraft carriers.

"The second is our weapons system. Xiaoye, you also know that aircraft carriers are a system project that requires numerous weapons to match it. In this regard, although our country has done a lot of work, because there are no aircraft carriers, verification cannot be carried out. Now that there are aircraft carriers, verification is begins, and this will also take some time. Ge Lao said again.

This is also an important question. An aircraft carrier is a system project that needs to be matched by many fields, among which weapon systems are very important.

In terms of weapons systems, the state has also done a lot of work and carried out preliminary preparations. However, there is no verification of an aircraft carrier and there is an aircraft carrier, that is completely different.

Can the situation in a simulated environment be the same as that of an aircraft carrier sailing on the sea?

Simulations can only be simulations, and there is a gap between them and the actual situation.

"That makes a lot of sense." Ye Chen nodded and said, "For example, our carrier-based aircraft, the first time it went on the ship and the second time it was on the ship later, there were obvious modifications. This is how problems were found on the aircraft carrier. ”

After our country's aircraft carrier came out, the boarding of carrier-based aircraft was a major event, and the Chinese people were paying attention to it. Later, it turned out that the carrier-based aircraft had obvious modifications, and this was carried out after practical verification.

This is also due to the difference between the simulated situation and the actual situation.

"The third is that there are also some problems with our ship's nuclear technology." Ge Lao said again.

Ye Chen was a little surprised, and said, "Won't it?" Isn't our country going to build a mobile nuclear power platform to supply power to islands and reefs? ”

"Xiaoye, nuclear technology is divided into many categories, and there are differences between each type." Zhuang Lao explained: "As you know, although our country was successful in researching nuclear technology back then, because of the late start and weak industrial base, there is a gap between the technology of our country and the developed countries. Our country has been catching up for decades and is finally catching up. However, there is really a gap in the part of the ship. ”

It is already a miracle that our country, when it is so poor and has such a weak industrial base, was able to create nuclear weapons. We can't expect more, we can't expect our nuclear technology to reach the world's advanced level, and it's good if we can build it.

Ye Chen nodded, indicating understanding.

Next, Ge Lao and the others gave Ye Chen a specific talk about the situation of our country's aircraft carrier.

The more Ye Chen listened, the more surprised he became, Ge Lao's achievements in the aircraft carrier were very amazing. If the technology of ships without new power technology is used as a standard, Ge Lao and they are already equivalent to 60 percent.

Don't look at only 60 percent, it's also amazing.

You know, how long has our country really been studying on aircraft carriers? It's only been more than ten years. Although we have a higher starting point, it is very amazing to be able to achieve such an achievement.

Of course, if it is measured by the standard of complete ship technology, Ge Lao and their achievements are even less.

However, these are two completely different ship technologies, and if they are compared together, it would be too unfair to Ge Lao.

If we take complete ship technology as the standard, the US aircraft carrier technology is also scum, not to mention that our country's aircraft carrier technology started hundreds of years late.

"Old Ge, you can help me take a look, how about this? This is what I designed. After understanding the situation, Ye Chen couldn't wait to project the warship he designed.

"This is ......" Ge Lao's eyes widened sharply, and his breath became short.
