Chapter 673: What if!

Kind of calculation. The military originally spent a total of 10,000 yuan to buy this warship. Now it costs $10,000 to decide. It's even a little more than a quarter of the original price. _-Arashi made $10,000 from it. The navy, on the other hand, bought what it needed most at a much lower price than the international market price. Everyone takes what they need. Happy to work with.

Most importantly. By such means of operation. Not only does it save money. The most important thing is that the delivery is fast. There will not be a sentence like the purchase of the "Modern" class missile destroyers, which will be finalized in years I. Until the beginning of the month's delivery of the first warship, the embarrassing events of the past years. By this way of operating. It only takes a few at the earliest, less than a month, and no more than a year at the slowest to get things done.

Although the warship purchased in this way can only be considered second-hand. But the service life of the hull of a warship that is commonly used internationally is years. During this period, the combat effectiveness of the warship can also be improved by modifying and improving the equipment on the ship.

Lao Maozi's Krivac-class missile frigates have only been used for about ten years. Some are even only three or four years old. It's young and strong. The most important thing is that the combat power of such a frigate is even much stronger than that of a Chinese destroyer. The price is several times cheaper than building a destroyer in the country. No matter how you calculate it, it is a very good deal.

That's right. Zhang Lan understood. Zhang Dingjun naturally understands. After hearing Zhang Lan say this. It is probably already authorized by the leaders above. Zhang Dingjun nodded and rubbed his hands. A look of embarrassment and a cheap smile after making a bargain. "Then we'll make a big deal for you."

I have always heard that the Zhang family is very good at business. But it never took advantage of the military. Zhang Dingjun was thoroughly enlightened this time: originally according to the above leader's statement. Purchased at the international standard price. If you want to add that Ka-carrier-based anti-submarine helicopter. The benefit fee to Zhang Lan. This warship will need at least 10,000 US dollars to be able to get it. But if you follow Zhang's algorithm. Although I don't know how much money Zhang Lan can spend to take down this warship. But the money spent on your side is definitely not more than the dollar. _II my side is really big!

"We're not making any money." Zhang Lan naturally knows that there must be a degree of truth to make money. The true meaning of making money lies in the long stream. Being too greedy doesn't do you any good. Earning that extra $10,000 in exchange for a bad feeling for the military towards him. It's not worth it. I don't want to repeat Hu Xueyan's mistakes. "Besides, we don't know if this will work out or not. It can be good. If it can't be done. Uncle Zhang, you can help me explain to the leaders above. Don't blame us when the time comes. ”

"Of course." Zhang Dingjun nodded. "As long as you're willing to do this. Whether it ends up or not. We all receive this from you. ”

"That's right." Just as I was leaving. Zhang Lan suddenly thought of a possibility. Turning his head, he asked General Zhang Dingjun. "If we just in case. I mean just in case. If we can get you a better one. Do you want to? ”

Of course, the meaning of "just in case" is clear. It's a 1 in 10,000 chance. Literally. This opportunity is there though. But generally speaking, it is a "theoretical possibility" that everyone often talks about. Generally related to the word "in case". There are not many seemingly successful examples.

"Better?" Heard Zhang Lan say this. Zhang Dingjun's heart began to pound. Hold back the excitement in your heart. "For example?"

For example, the former Soviet Union's Dreadnought-class missile destroyers, which were designed specifically for fleet anti-submarine purposes. For example, the "Modern" class missile destroyers, designed at the same time as the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyers, designed for fleet anti-ship. Zhang Lan said. If you were a little more daring. Heavy nuclear-powered missile cruisers of the "Kirov" class can also be added. There are also conventionally powered missile cruisers of the "Glorious" class, which are not inferior in combat effectiveness to the heavy nuclear-powered missile cruisers of the "Kirov" class. ”

Last year, China reached an agreement with Russia to buy "Modern" class missile destroyers. Zhang Dingjun, as the commander of the North Sea Fleet, naturally did not know about it. As a clear point of the explanation of the Chinese Navy's enhancement of combat capability in the direction of the Taiwan Strait, it is an important measure to deal with the USS Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier battle group of the US Seventh Fleet. Although it is still early to hand over the ship. However, the Navy has already decided to incorporate the two "Modern" class missile destroyers, which were purchased in advance, into the East China Sea Fleet combat sequence.

The same as the Navy. Zhang Dingjun was naturally greedy for this kind of missile destroyer, which has a powerful anti-ship combat capability and is known as an "aircraft carrier killer." It's just a high price of $1 per ship - the order price is $100 million. But in the end. Carefully calculated. The total cost of the front and back adds up. In the end, a single "modern" class guided-missile destroyer cost $1 -- but not the first Chinese navy to equip each of the three fleets

For such a full load displacement reached a staggering - a maximum speed of thirty knots and a power of I horsepower, the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyers designed for anti-submarine purposes. Although China did not buy. However, this does not mean that the Chinese Navy does not pay attention to this aspect. For this type of missile destroyer with excellent performance and mainly anti-submarine design. Naturally, the Chinese Navy is also very greedy-

Just now. The biggest problem facing the Chinese navy is still anti-ship, and to put it more clearly, it is just dealing with the US aircraft carrier group. The need for anti-submarine aspects is also important, though. But relatively speaking, it can be a row in the back row. So after weighing it for a long time. The Navy finally chose the anti-ship version of the "Modern" class missile destroyers between the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyers and the "Modern" class missile destroyers. _。 Of course. The main reason was that the Chinese army at that time was not fully funded. If you have money. It cannot be ruled out that China will buy the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyers, which are mainly anti-submarine, and the "Modern" class missile destroyers, which are mainly anti-ship, together with the possibility of buying them.

But let's be honest. In the design thinking of the former Soviet Union. It is a combination of the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyers and the "Modern" class missile destroyers. The strength of the "modern" class missile destroyer is only reflected in the powerful penetration capability of the "Sunburn" heavy supersonic anti-ship missile equipped with it, and the powerful combat power of the warhead. It itself is largely devoid of anti-submarine capabilities. And this anti-submarine gap. It is filled by the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyers, designed specifically for anti-submarine purposes. _ to say. The "Dreadnought" class and the "Modern" class are in one fleet. They are inseparable from no one. It is a pair of "life and death partners" on the battlefield. ,

Because it lags behind European and American countries in terms of electronic technology. So the same electronic device that functions. Everything in the USSR was larger and heavier than in Europe and the United States. It is difficult to do "everything" on one ship. Let him be both anti-submarine and anti-ship. _ At the time of the development of large surface combat ships. The former Soviet Union took a completely different path from that of Europe and the United States: for the same fleet of ships. Implement "division of labor and cooperation"! While emphasizing the capabilities of the air defense of the fleet. Each type of warship has a different design focus. This is also the reason why the former Soviet Union wanted to develop two types of missile destroyers, the "Dreadnought" class missile destroyer and the "Modern" class destroyer, which mainly focused on anti-submarine warfare, at the same time. _ For these two - missile destroyers. Originally, it was meant to be mixed and matched in the same fleet.

In the current Russian Far East Pacific Fleet. Both types of missile destroyers, the "Dreadnought" class and the "Modern" class, are available. And like any other warship. Because of the serious shortage of military spending. There is no fuel. These two types of missile destroyers have not only not been to sea for several years. Even because there is no money. These two types of missile destroyers could not even carry out normal maintenance. There is not even money to paint the hull of a warship with anticorrosive paint! The entire Russian Far East Pacific Fleet could only watch them slowly decay and grow in the military port. Let them gradually start to turn into a pile of scrap metal.

One can imagine the extent to which Russia has become impoverished.

As for the "Kirov"-class heavy nuclear-powered missile cruisers and the "Glorious"-class multipurpose missile cruisers mentioned by Zhang Lan. Naturally, it is also a mouth-watering treasure in the eyes of the Chinese Navy:

The Kirov-class heavy nuclear-powered missile cruiser with dual power and steam turbine power as the power core. It was the first and last type developed by the Soviet Union to use nuclear-powered missile cruisers. The appearance has also changed the complex appearance characteristics of Soviet-style warships. The adoption of the missile vertical launch system makes the Kirov-class heavy nuclear-powered missile cruiser relatively simple in appearance. But the rugged beauty of Soviet battleships was still not lacking in the slightest.

The "Kirov" class heavy nuclear-powered missile cruisers have a standard displacement of I tons. Full load displacement tons. The total meters of the whole ship. The width of the hull reaches an astonishing meter. Maximum speed'. As for the cruising range. Then it goes without saying. Since it is nuclear-powered propulsion. So it has an almost infinite range.

As a missile cruiser on par with the American "Ticonderoga"-class Aegis missile cruisers in the world. Although the heavy nuclear-powered missile cruisers of the "Kirov" class are not equipped with "phased array" radars. Its air defense capabilities are slightly inferior to the US Navy's "Ticonderoga"-class Aegis missile cruisers; And it does not have the ability to attack on land. But its shipboard armament covers almost all maritime combat weapon systems. It is possible to provide fleet air defense and anti-submarine support for the entire fleet. It is also possible to engage large surface ships of the enemy. The ship is equipped with a "Granite" supersonic heavy anti-ship missile with a maximum range of more than one kilometer. Even the aircraft carrier battle group of the United States, which is now invincible, has to retreat from a peerless anti-ship weapon.
