Chapter 1701: So We're So Powerful

Chapter 1701: It turns out that we are already so powerful

But in the midst of all the opinions, there is no doubt that the aircraft carrier of the Alice Group has once again sparked a heated discussion and heated discussion about the aircraft carrier among the rising Chinese people

Different from the previous imagination of aircraft carriers designed by senior military enthusiasts with strong hands-on ability, this time it is a real aircraft carrier in front of them, and it is not a scrapped aircraft carrier like the "Varyag", which can only make some guesses about the use so far, and most importantly, what does this company that builds aircraft carriers, or even its own country's shipbuilding company, mean?

As long as the brain has a little associative function, it will naturally be able to associate what it means, and for a while, the whole network is completely excited

There are even senior military enthusiasts who have made special calculations according to the proportion of the ship's hull relative to the buildings on both sides of the dock, and made the final calculation results public: According to the calculation results, the aircraft carrier built by the Alice Group should be no less than 340 meters in length and not less than 80 meters in width, whether in terms of displacement or the number of carrier-based aircraft, it is definitely not lower than the top national weapon in service in the United States: the "Nimitz" class heavy nuclear-powered aircraft carrier

As soon as this news was released, it was as if a scoop of oil was poured on this surging aircraft carrier boom, and the network was completely boiled like a boiling volcano

The patriotic enthusiasm of netizens was completely stimulated at this moment

The enthusiasm of netizens is naturally understandable: aircraft carriers will always be a dream in the hearts of Chinese people, and having an aircraft carrier of their own means that China has finally moved towards the prelude to building a powerful naval force

Although China has the most powerful army in the world in terms of combat capability, if the opponent conducts a non-contact war with you, you still have not much to do with your opponent After all, no matter how powerful you are, even if you are alone and seeking defeat, as long as you can't beat me, I won't be afraid of you.

However, if China has its own aircraft carriers and its own powerful aircraft carrier combat formation, then the situation will be completely different, and it will be able to "keep the enemy out of the country" and no longer have to be bullied by foreigners

If the news of the construction of an aircraft carrier by the Alice Group is true, it means that China is really just around the corner from having an aircraft carrier of its own country, and China is really not far away, as an ancient country with a history of 5 years of civilization, it has really stood up

Now China already has its own "Beidou" series of navigation satellite systems, and there are no problems in the early warning and communication of aircraft carrier formations;

In terms of power system, if several UGT-25 gas turbines are selected to work in parallel, they can also provide the power required for aircraft carrier navigation;

As for the choice of carrier-based aircraft, the J-10 fighter has already been equipped with troops this year, and it is completely possible to develop a carrier-based fighter with a twin-engine, strengthened skeleton and overall structure, a ship-finding hook and corresponding sea landing equipment on the basis of this high-performance fighter with the world's third-generation mid-term technical level;

As for the issue of carrier-based early warning aircraft, in the first half of this year, it was hyped to install a Y-8 AEW aircraft that resembles a balance beam radar on the back of the aircraft, which has attracted widespread attention from military fans and the media, although the military and the government have unanimously expressed their silence on this aircraft, but judging from the test flight pictures of the Y-8 AEW "balance beam" early warning aircraft frequently released on the Internet, such a dense appearance on this flying network is definitely acquiesced by the military, which means that China already basically has the technology to develop and manufacture its own carrier-based early warning aircraft. Considering the limited space on the aircraft carrier, replacing the Y-8 aircraft equipped with the "balance beam" early warning radar radar with the smaller Yun-7 transport aircraft has become an excellent choice for the early warning aircraft to board the ship;

With the launching of the No. 170 "Lanzhou" destroyer and the No. 171 "Haikoukou" destroyer, which are equipped with the "China Aegis" air defense system, which we have independently developed and developed into combat effectiveness, the issue of the fleet's regional air defense is no longer a factor restricting the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers.

It can be said that now China has all the conditions for building its own aircraft carriers, and it has reached the point where it can take this last step: to have its own aircraft carrier

Therefore, as soon as this argument came out, it was like pouring a scoop of oil on this wave of aircraft carrier craze, making this craze for discussing aircraft carriers even more surging on the Internet, and even to the point of "no aircraft carrier, no talk".

In the face of this surging Internet craze, Alice Group naturally did not dare to slack off, so it held a special press conference to explain the matter to the media, saying that this aircraft carrier is a cruise ship built for business activities by Mr. Ellison, President of Alice Group Consulting Group.

When asked about the performance and power system of the aircraft carrier, a spokesman for the Alice Group said, "The power of this aircraft carrier adopts our improved power system based on the UGT-25 large gas turbine imported from Ukraine, which is in Mr. Ellison's cost-saving requirements, and the maximum speed of this cruise ship can reach 28 knots per hour." ”

What if it's not for cost savings? As we all know, military equipment, especially the military equipment of the navy, is always ranked first to consider performance, if the cost is not considered, can this "cruise ship" run faster?

Faced with the whole question, Alice Group only smiled meaningfully, but did not give any answer...... That's enough for journalists.

However, when asked by another reporter whether the aircraft carrier built by Mr. Ellison of Oracle with the help of the Alice Group has the ability to take off and land aircraft, the Alice Group frankly admitted that the cruise ship was built using a mixture of military and civilian technology, and all key parts were built using military technical standards and materials, while in some unimportant parts, civilian technical standards and materials were used to build, so it was completely possible to take off and land carrier-based aircraft.

"In other words, with almost no modifications, the cruise ship can be used as an aircraft carrier for patrol and training missions, and after less than half a year of refit, the cruise ship can take on the most intense combat missions," said the Alice Group spokesman at the end of the press conference

Alice Group's words stirred up a thousand waves with one stone

Of course, throughout the press conference, the Alice Group has always shied away from the claim that the aircraft carrier is an "aircraft carrier", and has always insisted that it is a "cruise ship...... It's just a little bigger.

Many emotional netizens on the Internet asked the government and the military to give an explanation: In the past, the country had no ability to build aircraft carriers, but now, why does the Alice Group already have the ability to build aircraft carriers that are even bigger than the American "Nimitz" class heavy nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and the military is not ready to build its own aircraft carriers?

The Ministry of Defense also held a press conference a few days ago, telling the media that the aircraft carrier being built by the Alice Group is a large cruise ship that looks like an aircraft carrier built for foreign businessmen: Ellison, the boss of Oracle. If the final assessment results prove that Alice Group has the ability to build aircraft carriers, the possibility of placing an order for Alice Group cannot be ruled out when the country needs to build aircraft carriers in the future.

Listening to this group of uncles of the Ministry of Defense chirping here, netizens can't wait for a green brick in their hands to slap on this guy's head: Damn, the aircraft carriers built by others are basically completed, and you still say that you want to evaluate the technical strength of others? Not ruling out the possibility yet? When we are fools, our country, which country has the technical strength and ability to build a shipyard?

"Brother Zhang Lan, is this aircraft carrier you built for our country?" Hu Ruoxi tilted her head and asked Zhang Lan with some excitement.

Although the girl of Alice Group's press conference also knows about it, Hu Ruoxi, who has lived in the intrigues of officialdom since she was a child and has seen a lot of things in front of her and behind her back, doesn't really care much about what is said in the so-called press conference.

Hearing Hu Ruoxi's words, Zhang Lan couldn't help but feel a little bitter in her heart: This thing, if our country commissioned us to build it, it would be good Shook his head helplessly, looking a little depressed, "No, so far, the Ministry of Defense has only stationed a working group with us, and there is nothing else." ”

"That's it," Zhang Lan was a little depressed when she heard her say this, and she paused angrily, "What do those old men think?" No, I'm going to find my grandfather to theorize, since our country needs an aircraft carrier, and your family can build it by itself, then why don't you help the country build an aircraft carrier, you start building an aircraft carrier now, and after two and a half years, the aircraft carrier will be completed and launched, and the carrier-based aircraft and the fleet early warning aircraft will basically be ready for service, and then it will be time to conduct sea trial training together...... I really don't understand, what my little girl understands, why don't these old men understand? ”,

Over, this girl turned her head and was about to go upstairs to find Brother Hu's "theory".

Zhang Lan was secretly happy in her heart: Hey, I can't see it, this girl is really familiar with the military aspect.

Think about it, in terms of this girl's position, many things that are confidential to ordinary people, I am afraid that there are no secrets to this girl, as long as this girl has this mind, these things are not as much as she wants to know?

But despite the coke in her heart, Zhang Lan still quickly grabbed the girl's hand, shook her head, and didn't let the girl go upstairs, "Don't, to manage this country, there are thousands of things, and there are so many things to consider, and the old men also have their own difficulties: it is difficult to be a family, and it is even more difficult to be a family...... Speaking of which, no one is cheap, if they can, who doesn't want to live in the scenery and scenes? If conditions permit, who wants to be slapped all day long? Do you think that these guys have a penchant for masochism, and when these words we say in China are ignored by those Europeans like farts in the international community, the old men feel comfortable on their faces. ”

"Hehe......" Hearing Zhang Lan such a girl, she also laughed, of course, there is no doubt that although the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds, the little girl does not deny that there are really some cheap people in the people, but in the political arena, especially at the top of the power pyramid, if anyone really has such a hobby...... Well, he has no way to climb this position, and in this country, a person who is not good at personal ethics will never be able to rise to a high position.

Living in China's first family, of course, the little girl herself knows a lot of things, when she sees the grandfather's face that is as cloudy as the dark clouds in June, the little girl knows that the grandfather must have been angry with foreigners...... Domestic affairs, in terms of his grandfather's political skills, generally do not let his grandfather have such an expression.

Of course, with the rapid improvement of China's strength in recent years, its voice and influence in the international community are getting bigger and bigger, and there are fewer and fewer times when my grandfather goes home with a gloomy face.

In fact, Zhang Lan also felt quite disappointed by the hesitation and indecision of the domestic government and military, as well as the hesitation of attitudes on this matter.

But disappointed to disappointed, Zhang Lan's heart is actually not too depressed, after all, the construction of Chinese's own aircraft carrier is the general trend of history, although it may be slightly delayed because of this and that kind of thing, but looking at the development steps of the squadron over the years, we know that having its own aircraft carrier is definitely an inevitable trend of development

Even if China itself does not want to, but in the current complex international situation, as long as the old men above are not angry with the Americans all day long, are not bullied by others, do not look at other faces, and want to have their own right to speak, instead of letting others treat what they say as fart, then they must have their own aircraft carrier...... The act of letting others take what they say inappropriately all day long is no longer a matter of naked slap in the face for these old men who want to save face and still uphold the mind of a "central power" in their hearts.

And this heavy aircraft carrier built for Ellison has been filed with the Ministry of Defense in the first place, and naturally, the military is also closely ...... for the Alice Group to help others build a heavy aircraft carrier built with a mixture of military and civilian technology In fact, the military is more concerned about this matter than others, and even sent a special working group composed of the Ministry of National Defense security team and shipbuilding experts to be stationed at the construction site of this project.

The task of this working group, in addition to supervising the work of the Alice Group, is to analyze the strength of the Alice Group, whether it is really possible to build a fully mature aircraft carrier, of course, Zhang Lan is very shameless in his heart that the purpose of these guys coming here is not without the idea of stealing teachers, otherwise among the members of the entire working group, there are two warship designers from Huludao Shipyard and Jiangnan Shipyard? These two major countries build shipyards, one is to build nuclear submarines, and the other is to build China's most advanced destroyers, saying that they don't have any ideas? Who believes

So far, the entire working group has basically come to the conclusion: Alice Shipyard has indeed reached the level of building a heavy aircraft carrier in terms of aircraft carrier construction capacity, and it is completely capable of building a heavy aircraft carrier with a full load displacement of more than 10,000 tons.

Therefore, after seeing the conclusion of this working group, although the military and government leaders have not publicly expressed their position, they are already inclined to hand over the construction of aircraft carriers to Alice Shipyard, and the exchanges between Dalian Shipyard, Jiangnan Shipyard and Huludao Shipyard and Alice Group have also increased significantly...... Even the "Varyag" aircraft carrier, which is being refitted at the Dalian Shipyard, is being refitted at the Dalian Shipyard, and some high-ranking military officials are inclined to hand it over to the Alice Group for refitting, only focusing on cultivating the country's own aircraft carrier construction force and balancing the Alice Shipyard.

"By the way, Brother Zhang Lan, the aircraft carrier you are helping Ellison build now can really take off and land planes?" The little girl frowned, and suddenly asked Zhang Lan, "I took a look at the picture, and it still uses a sliding jump take-off method, have you developed a steam catapult?" ”

"There is no problem with taking off and landing planes at all," this girl's question made Zhang Lan smile, "As for why we use a glide jump to take off and take off, well, why should we give good things to others?" ”

"Good things for others?" After a little reminiscence of Zhang Lan's words, Xiao Nannan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes, the Americans are now using the catapult take-off method, even if Ellison's bastard sells this aircraft carrier to the United States in the future, limited by the limitations of take-off and landing performance, this aircraft carrier is not very compatible with the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier in service in the United States Navy, compared with the trouble caused by the mutual cooperation between the two, I am afraid that the United States will not be able to take over Ellison's aircraft carrier after weighing various pros and cons, even if it is a modification, It seems that the gains outweigh the losses...... If other countries take over this aircraft carrier, it is really a good way to have a good way not to pose too much of a threat to our country."

As soon as she thought of this, Hu Ruoxi asked Zhang Lan with disbelief in joy, "Brother Zhang Lan, do you mean...... You mean...... Can you build a steam catapult system? ”

Because he was too excited, Hu Ruoxi's voice even trembled slightly

Zhang Lan was stunned and looked at Hu Ruoxi, who was already excited at the moment, and her face was flushed: This girl is really ...... Why did you immediately think about why you took off with a glide jump instead of any other way of taking off?
