The reunion of old comrades-in-arms was always pleasant, the brothers in Moscow were called to the Zhukovsky Academy, and even Vuginskaya was taken home from the hospital. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

More than half of the comrades who fought together in China last year have returned to the Soviet Union one after another, and the pilots who have undergone actual combat training are now important seed soldiers of various units, and even the wingmen of the past are now at least squadron leaders -- this is the advantage of having actual combat qualifications, not to mention that the pilots who have returned from China basically have combat achievements in hand.

That night, his wife told Lin Jun a problem that bothered her a little: she was pregnant again.

Giving birth to a child will affect work, and Vuginskaya will not be able to go to work in the hospital for at least half a year, which is a big problem for the ambitious wife, but Lin Jun is happy!

The son now regards the Air Force Academy as his playground, with Arkhipov, the grandfather who is the dean, under the cover, and the two-year-old little guy treats the fighter plane as his super toy, and the time and opportunity to "go to the sky" every month far exceeds that of his father, who is an ace pilot. There are not many children of the families of the cadres of the college, since Andlupf's baby son Katya went to school, Lin Lin has become the baby of the whole college, and the families of the cadres love him very much, no way, their children are basically adults and live independently, in front of a group of Russian aunts, their baby son is the baby of the baby.

Because of work, he and his wife have never had any more children, which is a very strange phenomenon in the Soviet Union, which advocates having more children and raising more. Some time ago, when Andlupuf was chatting with himself, he was still complaining that his wife didn't give him more children, and the 38-year-old brother was still thinking about having a few more sons, which made Lin Jun feel guilty for a while: If he hadn't dragged him out of Moscow all the time, Nova might have given his brother two more sons.

"Raw, preferably twins!" Lin Jun hugged his wife and said.

Vukinskaya was having a headache about her pregnancy, but her husband was done with this sentence: "What about the work?" “

"Nothing is more important than having a baby."

On June 8, 1938, Lin Jun finally graduated from the senior chief training class of the Military Academy, and his grades were still the second in the class - he didn't want the "title" of first place even if he was killed, otherwise he would blush when he slept.

In the afternoon of the same day, he and Orlov took a train to the Severodvinsk Northern Shipyard in the Arkhangelsk Oblast, and this time the two of them were only supporting characters in the trip, because this train was Stalin's armored train, and even Kalinin and Voroshinov were on the train -- the day after tomorrow, that is, on June 10, the battleship "Soviet" would be launched after more than two years of slipway construction, and Stalin would personally cut the ribbon for it.

The design of the First Central Special Ship Design Bureau under the Ministry of Shipbuilding has undergone two minor adjustments, and as a result of Lin Jun's bold actions in China last year, the Japanese aircraft carrier was blown up and sunk in the East China Sea, once again showing that the greatest threat to warships in the future will come from the air. To this end, the designers made adjustments to the firepower layout of the battleships that had not yet been launched, in accordance with the orders of the Kremlin and the headquarters of the shipbuilding industry, and paid the cost of a possible delay of three months.

In Lin Jun's view, such a price is worth it, so that the "Soviet" class will be the first battleship in the world to abandon the defensive thinking of secondary guns when it is built, cancel the original equipment of six 152-mm twin secondary guns, increase the number of twin 100-mm high-level dual-purpose guns to 16, plus 10 46-К quadruple 37-mm guns with stabilizers and 32 single-barreled 23-mm guns, once completed, the "Soviet" class will be the world's largest anti-aircraft firepower battleship, The improved design also saves more than 50 tons of weight. But there were also troubles, the crew was more than 200 more than originally planned, and the crew was almost close to 1,900, because the extra anti-aircraft artillery group needed to be manned.

In the past, the battleships of various countries were generally designed with secondary guns, in order to attack enemy destroyers or mine-striking ships, and the unique 127 mm naval guns of the Americans gave their battleships relatively suitable high-level dual-purpose guns, and it turned out that American battleships were only equipped with 127 mm naval guns as secondary guns It is the right thing to do, and a large number of 150 mm secondary guns of other countries are of little effect in most cases, especially in the World War II ocean, where the form of air defense is severe, and a sufficient anti-aircraft artillery group is the first priority.

The Soviet Navy had two kinds of high-level guns, 130 mm and 100 mm, and after weighing the pros and cons, the 100 mm naval guns won -- that is, if an enemy destroyer broke through the outer defense of its own battleship formation, the 100 naval guns equipped with hedgehog-like guns and extremely high rate of fire could also turn targets of two or three thousand tons into a pile of scrap metal in a short time, not to mention that the fire control system of the "Soviet" class was one of the most advanced fire control systems in the world at that time, and it could hit sea and air targets ruthlessly and accurately in bad sea conditions!

Fortunately, the time to modify the design was timely, otherwise the cost may be greater. According to the new design, the anti-aircraft firepower can be compared with the US battleships at the end of the Pacific War, and the problem can be solved once and for all now, and in the future, at most, it will be necessary to add some light anti-aircraft guns.

On the train, Hayashi Jun and Orlov have been discussing the current construction of new battleships in various countries, and the latest information says that two docks of the Kure Navy Shipyard and the Mitsubishi Nagasaki Shipyard are covered by huge fences, and because the Japanese are heavily guarded, it is not known what they are doing, and the Japanese tricks are the focus of discussion.

"I can bet that little Japan is building their super-battleships in those two big fences, and the Japanese are the best at this kind of sneaky thing. Compared with the United States, they cannot have a similar number of maritime forces, and can only think of qualitative superiority; Compared with us, they do not have a sufficiently concealed shipbuilding base, so they can only be covered by fences. ”

"Hehe, Andrey, we also have to thank the Japanese, otherwise that damn "Second London Treaty on the Limitation of Naval Armaments" will give us a headache for a few days."

In August 1936, the Soviet Union reached a bilateral naval agreement with Britain and expressed its willingness to abide by the restrictions of the Second London Treaty on the Limitation of Naval Armaments of March 1936 on battleships with a displacement of no more than 35,000 tons and a main gun caliber of no more than 406 mm. However, only Japan in the Pacific did not ratify the Second Treaty of London among the major naval powers. Therefore, the USSR had every reason to build supra-treaty battleships with 406 main guns for the Pacific Fleet to counter the super-battleships of possible Japanese developments.

"Ridiculous agreement, with a piece of paper to bind the war, only a ghost will believe it." Lin Jun was not polite to say this: What do you have to do with Lao Tzu? ! There is only one truth in the world - whoever has the biggest fist is justified!

The Soviets had never joined the First Treaty of London, so a few years ago they could develop their own naval program without any constraints, and the actions of the island nation had made the second treaty largely a waste of paper, but only the basics - "the Germans complied with it to a certain extent, and the British seemed to be doing things according to it." "Ornov is telling the truth.

"Hitler had no choice but to overstimulate the British. Last month, their "Gneisenau" was completed, and it is estimated that it will be able to form combat effectiveness this year, and their new battleship has also been started in 36 years, and it is estimated that it should also be launched, and some of the British guys can have a headache in their heads. ”

As long as it is about the construction of the navies of various countries, the commander of the Red Navy is naturally one of the first people to know from the intelligence services, but Lin Jun has Alexander, and his news is no more outdated than Orlov, and it is not interesting to talk about the situation that both of them know.

"What happened to the artillery in Leningrad?"

You must know that the problem of insufficient manufacturing capacity of the main gun in history is also a big trouble that plagues the "Soviet" class, although Orlov introduced the development of the main gun to himself last year, he Lin Jun still wants to ask.

"The first batch of nine mass-produced main guns has been delivered to Plant 402, and five main guns equipped with the" Red Ukraine "have been completed, and it is estimated that all of them will be delivered in three months. With a speed of 31 knots and 9 406mm guns, it's exciting to think about! ”

The main engine used in the "Soviet" class is an imitation of Swiss technology, and the power performance can be better than expected, and the three main engines can produce a maximum of more than 230,000 horsepower, which can ensure the maximum speed of 30 knots of the "Soviet" class with a full load displacement of 65,000 tons, and even reach a higher speed, of course, all this is only an estimate, and it will not be known until after the completion of the sea trials.

The original design only required it to have a cruising range of 15 knots / 8,000 nautical miles, but according to the design at the time of the actual start of construction in 36, this value would reach 12,000 nautical miles, and the designers of the First Central Special Ship Design Bureau Sakov and Berchensky made great efforts to achieve this.

"Andrey, there's something I want to thank you for."

"What's the matter?"

"Originally, the new battleship was going to use a 20-mm anti-aircraft gun copied by the Swiss company Ericon, but after Comrade Taubina, who was forced by you to improve the design of the cannon, redesigned its 23-mm cannon, we felt that the cannon was more suitable, and the changes required for loading the ship were not large."

"In this way, the first batch of new fighters will use the original 20-mm cannon, and the 23-mm cannon is estimated to wait for the new attack aircraft and fighters to be modified before equipping the Air Force, otherwise it will affect the time of equipment, and the comrades of the Red Navy need it just right, and it can also ensure the operation of the production line."

This was a result that Lin Jun didn't expect at the beginning. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (To be continued.) )
