Chapter 160: Yang Feng's Super Battleship
This is also the reason why Yang Feng has not been very concerned about territorial expansion.
The high welfare of the Ming Empire will basically not change, he just wants to make his country more socialist than socialism, and he is ready to let the people visit Sweden more in the future, so that they know that the highest stage of human civilization is not only the Soviet Union, and the great mentor must not forget the beard.
But such a good thing will only be given to the Chinese, at most a few Malays to make an example, the Ming Empire must remain ethnically pure, but if the territory expands, what will happen to the other ethnic groups in the new territory?
You can't spill them all, can you?
Although he can do it, but the impact is too bad after all, this is no longer the good era of the Great Voyage Colonization, and he can purge as he wants.
It's a civilized society now, and you can't play like that.
The lesson of the mustache, although he is in the right direction, but the wrong way is also terrible.
Therefore, the land that has not completed the national purification is not to be sent to him, and it is only right to have his military strength as the backing to support those Chinese capitalists to knock out the bones and suck the marrow of other nationalities, anyway, the wealth is concentrated in the hands of the Chinese, and those other nationalities have nothing to do with him even if they starve to death, and it is not his people who care about him.
Then he cleaned step by step, slowly, little by little, washed and swallowed again, and finally established a pure Chinese state, as for the empire, the republic or anything is a trivial matter, what system issues in the eyes of Yang Yuan, are all trivial, as long as the people of this country live comfortably enough, the country is strong enough, even the monarch is not equally popular?
For example, West Borneo has been almost washed, and it will be officially swallowed in another year or two. It will take some time in South Borneo, where the proportion of other ethnic groups is still significant.
But then again...
"We do need to increase our naval strength, after the Kunlun returns, we will have two aircraft carriers, but the number of warships to escort is a bit small, and the navy still needs a long-term plan. The fleet will fall behind over time, and we have to think long-term to ensure our strength. β
Yang said in a deep voice.
He has been fighting on two fronts recently, and he is a little nervous about the use of the navy, looking at the Soviet Pacific Fleet on the one hand, and providing support for the subcontinent battlefield on the other, all the warships have no time to take care of him, and his warships have less than ten years of shelf life.
"Buy a few more cruiser destroyers? It is said that the Britons still have battleships waiting to be struck! β
Hu Hao said.
"Don't buy, build!"
Yang Feng said.
"Let's make it ourselves?"
Hu Hao said with some horror.
"Yes, make it yourself. Build large ocean-going destroyers. β
Yang Feng said.
Well, it will not be difficult for him, he will have a maximum of two months to put into operation at the steel plant in Suncheonseong, the crystallization of a full set of Prussian technology, the cooperation of thousands of engineers and skilled workers of Thyssen, Krupp, Rheinmetall, the first phase of the project is designed with an annual output of two million tons. All production lines of crude steel and special steel are complete. Alfred. Krupp personally came to see it and told him that it was no problem to build the submarine directly.
This remnant was originally going to be sentenced to 12 years in prison, but Yang Feng interceded with Mi and Britain, and changed it to medical parole.
In addition to this, there is a shipyard that has already started production, mainly for the construction of small river vessels. But the main workers were hired from Prussia, and many of them even participated in the construction of the Bismarck.
That is to say, he has already completed both men and equipment, and all he needs is to determine what kind of destroyer he needs.
And before deciding what kind of destroyer to build, he first had to think about the main purpose of this destroyer.
First, the suppression of fire on the opposite side.
in Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean. Basically, he is only the one who bullies others, and the main job is an armed invasion in addition to bombing, so this destroyer must have a strong ability to attack the shore, which can provide sufficient fire suppression for his landing fleet, simply put, the caliber of the artillery must be large, and the firing range must be long.
The double-tube one three zero is very suitable, one in the front and one in the front, and the one in the back can be dismantled and rebuilt in a few years.
Second, anti-submarine.
This is easy to do, leave a towed sonar port in the back, install a self-guided torpedo in front, as for deep bombs or something, there is no need, he has enough confidence in the MK44 torpedo, no, there is also MK46, or install a set of rocket deep bomb launchers, anyway, it doesn't take up much space, and it should be installed with Aslock in a few years.
Thirdly, air defense.
This destroyer needs to escort the aircraft carrier, air defense is an important indicator, anti-aircraft missiles are not needed for the time being, the development process of the brass knight of the United States is very difficult, the three-T system was formed at the end of the fifties, and the wolf cannot be recruited, but the design should reserve a place for modification. This is not difficult, just add a shaft behind the bow main gun, you can design it into an inconsequential compartment, and you don't need small and medium-caliber anti-aircraft guns, just add AK630 directly. But it can't be the original, modify it slightly, turn the computer system of the control part into modular, take it away and become semi-automatic when you don't need it, anyway, this kind of thing originally had a manual mode, and it was completely okay to insert the module directly when you need it.
No one knows how effective this thing is against anti-ship missiles, but it is absolutely useful to intercept dive bombers.
As for the anti-ship missile saturation attack of the Soviets.
That casual radar jamming will turn into a large rocket.
And finally, anti-ship.
Anti-ship missiles can be loaded, anyway, his missile speedboat has long been parked at the dock, it's just that no one takes it seriously, in fact, if it weren't for the unlucky Eilat, the people of the United States would not have noticed the Styx, they knocked out too many kamikaze planes, and even the manned ones were beaten into in front of them, not to mention the unmanned ones.
That's why there is such a strange thing as a brass knight part-time anti-ship, at the level of electronic technology in the fifties, let a missile several times the speed of sound, but also a radio command plus semi-active radar-guided missile, to attack the warship on the complex wave background on the sea surface, the imagination of the people of the United States is always so rich.
Yang Feng's destroyer can be equipped with anti-ship missiles now, and the Styx can change some good seeker and a good altimeter, so that it can be used for twenty years without pressure, and the little sun dares to use it for half a century.
In that case, his destroyer will be very large, and it will be difficult to hold so many things under 5,000 tons, at least at the level of the Koontz class.
Well, he finally found his ship-type template, not the Koontz-class, of course, but the French Suflen class, which perfectly met his requirements except for that exaggerated head.
The two main guns, although they are a single-barreled 100 mm, does not prevent him from changing to a double-barreled 130 mm, the No. 2 main gun position is just loaded with ship-to-air missiles, the middle can be equipped with anti-ship missiles, and even a ship-to-air missile launcher can be added to the back, the cantilever launcher can be formed, at least four fire channels can be formed, and the tail can almost leave the position of the helicopter hangar, the standard row of 5,000 full rows of 6,000, 70,000 horsepower steam turbines, and the endurance of 5,000 nautical miles, it can be said to be perfect.
The only question is...
Who's going to design for him?
"It's a simple question, if you go to the shipyard and get those engineers, it is estimated that more than half of them will be able to design you a warship, a 5,000-ton light cruiser, and as far as I know, there are at least thirty engineers there who have been involved in the design of the Bismarck. But Your Excellency, isn't it a little too little for a light cruiser like yours with only four main guns? And the 130-mm gun is not at all in line with its tonnage, you can fit six 152-mm guns. β
Yang Feng's question was despised by his fleet commander, Admiral Machar, and he was very speechless about his firepower configuration.
"No, no, the era of artillery has become history, and the future is the era of missiles, whether it is air defense, anti-ship or even anti-submarine, it is the world of missiles."
Yang Feng said with a smile.
Since this was easy to do, he took a trip to the shipyard himself, and by this time Suncheon Fortress was already beginning to take shape, both the airport and the port were barely usable, the hardening of the city's roads was also underway, and he also cooperated with the Henschel company, who designed the city's rail transportation system, including freight.
Well, don't think that Henschel only builds tanks, in fact, they are the world's top electric locomotive manufacturers, Hyundai Henschel, and they live on this thing under Bombardier, including our modern electrified railway development, many of which are also supported by Henschel.
Factories are also under construction everywhere, at least more than 300,000 workers are busy on this super huge construction site, and the refugees from the north are the best workers in Yang Feng's hands, just like a group of busy ants, here for Yang Feng's and their future, their faces are full of yearning for life.
Sitting in his own car, driving on the wide and straight asphalt road, looking at the industrial centers rising from the ground around him, Yang Feng also had a sense of accomplishment at this time, of course, looking at the comfortable Chinese faces on the side of the road, he had a greater sense of achievement, Southeast Asian Chinese are actually a little mixed, but he is very pure from the north, looking at them one by one is very kind, just like walking on the street of the original time and space.
"Hi beauty!"
Yang Feng pressed the window of the car very enthusiastically and shouted affectionately at a girl on the side of the road.
The girl's face turned red and she scolded in a spicy Hunan accent: "Hooligans! β
Yang Feng whistled at her proudly, and then walked away.
A pedestrian on the side of the road behind him kindly said to the girl: "That's the FΓΌhrer!" β
"Huh?!" The girl was dumbfounded. (To be continued......)
