Chapter 720: The Age of Aircraft Carriers on

The contradictions between the Gulf countries and Iran, and the contradictions between Israel cannot be talked about for a few days and nights, and Wu Chen will not worry about these things. What he is worried about now is that there are too many orders, resulting in production capacity not keeping up with demand, and people are paying their own banks according to the rules, if they do not deliver on time, it will be a very embarrassing big trouble, which will seriously affect the reputation of the Golden Triangle Federation and the mercenary corps.

"Marcas, the production line of the Shield Defender-2 stealth fighter is the most important work of Haidongqing Aerospace Manufacturing Company at present, and it is expected that these production lines will not be closed in 30 years, and the fifth-generation aircraft will become the mainstream of the world's air force. This time we are going to build the latest pulsation line, which is divided into a final assembly line and an integrated assembly line for large parts. ”

"Not counting the latest technology, last year, the United States Longbow Apache helicopter gunship, has achieved a pulsating assembly line, next year Loma company will start to build a pulsating assembly line for the joint strike fighter project, to achieve a reduction of 30 percent of the time, reduce the cost of 20 percent, the relevant information I will get in the near future." Wu Chen said while drinking tea.

"I also heard that Boeing has engaged in such an advanced assembly line, which is to adopt the method of automobile assembly line operation, plan and integrate the resources in hand, effectively improve the assembly efficiency of aircraft assembly, improve the assembly quality of products, and reduce the labor intensity of workers, improve the operating environment of the assembly site, and realize low-cost, high-quality and fast-response manufacturing of aircraft."

"In fact, Hai Dongqing has already started similar research, our fighter orders are endless, and the production capacity of the production line has long reached the limit, and increasing the production line is not a long-term solution, forcing the group leadership to find a way for themselves."

"I found that the four words are really incisive, an industry has an industry doorway, we don't necessarily have to use our brains to worry about, as long as the following standards and requirements are proposed, the number and indicators are given, and the reward and punishment system are announced, and the enterprise itself will stimulate strong vitality." Marcus said with a smile.

"Okay, it's because I don't know enough about my own business, you stare at this thing, before assembling the new assembly line, the R&D department will sort out the indicators to see if there is room for improvement, this time it is a 100 billion dollar profit transaction, the higher the quality of the products we provide, the more opportunities for cooperation."

"Come with me to Vietnam first, the aircraft carrier Ulyanovsk built by Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard will be launched and outfitted in two days, which is a big event for us and Russia, and then the Russian president will bring the military top brass to attend, and you can also take Miss Lan to Vietnam for a walk." Wu Chen said with a smile.

This is indeed a big event, and it is a sensational event that has caused a sensation all over the world, looking at the whole world, only the United States and France have nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and the French Charles de Gaulle has a standard displacement of only 35,000 tons, which is not as good as the displacement of the Wasp-class amphibious assault ships.

Since the collapse of the former Soviet Union, Russia's navy is not as good as day by day, except for the Kuznetsov conventionally powered aircraft carrier, the rest have all been sold, except for the Peter the Great nuclear-powered missile cruiser, the rest of the nuclear-powered missile cruisers have also been sold, not to mention any blue-water navy, even their own coastal defense has problems.

With this nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the strength of the Russian Navy can be multiplied several times at once, and there is no problem with an aircraft carrier of this class, seventy or eighty carrier-based aircraft on the deck and hangar, at least fifty carrier-based fighters, what kind of threat is this? It is also necessary to equip missile cruisers and missile destroyers, as well as attack nuclear submarines, which add up to absolutely one plus one is greater than two!

Not to mention the combat effectiveness, the launch of the aircraft carrier Ulyanovsk has a very far-reaching impact, which means that the Russian Navy has the ability to fight in the ocean and can deter many areas.

"I remember when the mercenary corps was first formed, you said that a declining Russia is not in our interests, and the United States must be restrained, especially in the navy, and Russia has finally taken the first step, and this is a very good start."

"The aircraft carrier battle group of the Russian Navy arrived in the Mediterranean Sea and docked at a naval base in Syria, this is your suggestion to the Russian president, in this way, it is a test for the US government, but also a test for NATO, and if it expands eastward, Russia will be on fire in the backyard!" Marcas said.

Cam Ranh Bay, known as the first military port in Asia, occupies a key position in the connection between the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, and has always been a battleground for soldiers. With the help of the Russian Navy and the power of the US government, Wu Chen won the permanent lease of this place in one fell swoop, and it became one of the main bases of the navy.

On the basis of the former Soviet Cam Ranh Bay Ship Repair Yard, Rainbow Shipping Company transformed and built the Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard, which has now become one of the most core modern shipyards of the mercenary corps, along with the Black Sea Shipyard and the St. Petersburg Northern Shipyard, as one of the three super shipyards that can manufacture aircraft carriers.

Moreover, according to Wu Chen's plan, in the future, only the Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard and the Black Sea Shipyard will be the main aircraft carrier manufacturing plants, and the St. Petersburg Northern Shipyard is on Russian territory, so it is better to take precautions, if there is friction between the two sides, the Russian government may take back this shipyard, which will be a bit of a tragedy.

Cam Ranh Bay presents a gourd-shaped, divided into inner and outer harbors, the outer harbor is called Pingba, the width of the port is 4,000 meters, the water depth is 30 meters, and the area is more than 50 square kilometers. The inner harbor is called Cam Ranh, the port is 1,300 meters wide, 20 kilometers long, 6 kilometers wide, 16 to 25 meters deep, and covers an area of about 60 square kilometers.

As the strength of the mercenary corps grows, so does the armed forces deployed at the Cam Ranh Bay Naval Base, and as of now, the army has an air assault division and a mountain light infantry division stationed here, equipped with an armored brigade full of M1A2 Abrams main battle tanks.

The Air Force is equipped with two E-3 watchtower early warning aircraft, 24 Haidongqing-1 single-seat twin-engine supersonic all-weather heavy fighters, 48 F-15 Eagle fighters, 48 A-10 attack aircraft, 12 B-1B strategic bombers, and 24 B-52 strategic bombers.

The Navy is armed with a 60,000-ton Forrestal-class aircraft carrier USS Raider with twenty Tomcat fighters and thirty-six Hornet carrier-based aircraft. The USS Kisacche Wasp-class amphibious assault ship, two Iwo Jima-class amphibious assault ships, three Ticonderoga-class missile cruisers, six Burke-class destroyers, ten Perry-class frigates, and five Spruance-class destroyers, as well as one Anchorage-class dock-class landing ship and two Newport-class tank landing ships.

It is also home to Seawolf-class attack nuclear submarines, with two Typhoon-class ballistic missile submarines, two Ohio-class cruise missile submarines, and four Oscar-class cruise missile nuclear submarines, as well as ten Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines, and two brigade-level combat teams in the Marine Corps.

It can also be seen from this that Wu Chen attaches great importance to Cam Ranh Bay, in order to prevent the Vietnamese government from breaking the contract, it has arranged enough force for the other side to be frightened, if it really fights, not to mention the victory or defeat, Vietnam's major cities will be in ruins within a day, and this is a military base to monitor the entire Southeast Asia!
