Chapter 36 Advanced Concepts

,; It is said that the tree is a big move. Being famous is not always a good thing. Because Yuan Chenhao was an army general, even if he was in charge of logistics work before the four, he was restricted by Lin Xiaolei, and he did not have the slightest chance to meddle in the construction of naval equipment, so after being transferred to the head of the operations department in the second half of the year, Yuan Chenhao spent a period of time to understand the situation of the navy. It is a pity that after Lin Xiaolei, it was Hua Jianfeng from the submarine force who served as the commander of the navy. Probably related to professional habits, the first thing Hua Jianfeng did after taking office was to cooperate with Liu Xiaobin of the Military Intelligence Bureau to comprehensively strengthen the Navy's secrecy work. What made Yuan Chenhao a little annoyed was that Huajian had a very good relationship with Yuan Chenhao and Liu Xiaobin, and he was favored by Yuan, so even if Yuan Chenhao was "the first person in the General Staff." "I didn't have a chance to ask the Navy

Feeling.

Of course, as the head of the Operations Division, Yuan Chenhao must have a better understanding of the Republic Navy than ordinary people.

In fact, as early as the end of 2 years, the construction of the heart was determined, and it was named "Kunlun" by Lin Xiaolei himself. Level. You know, at that time, the design of the muzzle was just beginning, and no one knew what it looked like. This shows how important a cruiser of this class is in the Navy of the Republic.

Just as the Republic's national defense strength grew after the cold year, the Navy's intensified efforts to build ships in the Likou Year were actually a kind of compensation for the lack in the early stage. You know, before the cruisers of the "Kunlun" class, the Navy of the Republic actually had only one type of cruiser, the "Qinling" class. Although in terms of specific grades, many cruisers of the Republic Navy have been divided into three classes, but the latter two classes adopt the hull and basic design of the "Qinling" class, and only the various subsystems have been improved, which can be regarded as a major improvement of the "Qinling Small, class." Of course, not opening a new warship for a long time can also bring a small benefit, that is, it can complete the accumulation of technology. In a sense, a very important reason for the conservative exhibition of the Republic Navy from the old years to the years of the foundation fighters is that the technological progress is too fast. If we rush to build them, I am afraid that many warships will fall behind by the time they are completed and put into service. Even for large warships such as aircraft carriers, which had to be built, the Navy of the Republic of China adopted the method of "running in small steps" and built seven "Republic" ships of the third class as a separate class in a short period of time, instead of building many old ships in one go, as the US Navy did.

Of course, the fact that the "Kunlun" class can be built in batches at the time of design is not unrelated to the advanced technology used.

The aforementioned spiral electromagnetic cannon is basically tailor-made for the "Kunlun" class. On the other hand, the performance and technical indicators of the spiral electromagnetic cannon had a great impact on the design work of the "Kunlun" class. In terms of displacement, in the beginning, the design index was to persuade the thug to stew. On the basis of the "Qinling" class, the cricket is enlarged. It can be said that this is a very loose indicator. The problem is that at the bottom of the formation, the navy changed the tactical indicators, and increased the ammunition throwing capacity of the naval guns by 2 times on the previous basis, that is, from the old times equivalent to the "Qinling" class to the force times. It's not over yet, it's the beginning of the year. According to the results of the computer-based future naval warfare exercises, the navy has once again increased the ammunition-throwing capability of the naval guns by two times, that is, to double that of the "Qinling" class, and has made it clear that the maximum firing range of the naval guns must exceed 4,000 meters.

In this way, in addition to speeding up the opening of the spiral electromagnetic gun, it is necessary to modify the technical specifications of the spiral electromagnetic gun, such as increasing the mass of the shell from the previous kilogram to more than kilogram, and the projector must not be replaced. In the case of adjusting only the output energy, shells of different calibers, including concave kilogram extended-range shells, are used, and the charge of the shells and the working time of the extended-range rocket engine can be flexibly adjusted according to the range requirements. All in all, that's it. First of all, the spiral electromagnetic cannon has become much more difficult to open, and many designs have to be reversed. What's more, the displacement of the battleship has also risen, and no designer can achieve the tactical indicators of the Navy with the hull of the thug persuasion. You must know that according to the requirements of the navy, even if the use of persuad-kilogram extended-range artillery shells and the energy system does not lag behind, it is necessary to be equipped with at least six spiral electromagnetic guns in order to increase the naval gun ammunition throwing capacity of the new warship to twice that of the "Qinling" class. That is, within a few minutes, after delivering about a kilometer, the mass of the shells thrown in a unit time is only equivalent to that of the "Qinling Mountains." The old times of the grade. It was for this reason that after the design work began, the engineers first figured out how to install six naval guns on the battleship, for which they had to adopt a strange ship with a protruding tail.

It is certainly not only artillery fire that reflects the combat effectiveness of battleships.

No matter how advanced the equipment is used, and how shocking the design concept is, in the final analysis, it is still to transform into actual combat effectiveness. In other words, if it can't be translated into actual combat effectiveness. No matter how advanced the design is, it is useless. This is very evident in the republic's small old and American fighter planes. Although the mouth is the world's first fourth-generation fighter, it is also the first heavy fighter to enter service after the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union. It is also the first "shallow bucket aircraft" in service in the century, and it is the first fighter with a cost of "100 million". The seven "old" are much "inferior", and they are even later than Russia's lower blades in terms of service time, and the price is not expensive, and they are not so eye-catching, but whether it is in terms of production, the number of countries equipped with equipment, and the time of service, the ugly is not the opponent of the small old. At the end of the day, in addition to being cheap. One of the successes of the old workers is that they have stretched their combat capabilities to the limit. It can be said that at the end of the decade, there are still many countries that are using the last improved model of the little old. Some powerful countries have even made further improvements on the basis of the "ultimate improvement" and extended their service life to the end of the year, not because these countries cannot afford to buy new fighters, but because small fighters are young and can effectively complete their combat missions.

Battleships are also weapon platforms, and like warplanes, they must follow the rules of weapons and equipment.

It is precisely in this way that the "Kunlun" class pays attention to "practical application" when designing.

The most striking feature of the design is its large flight deck.

In fact, with the exception of the tail end of the main body, the top of the hull superstructure is a "flight deck". What's more, the Kunlun class was the first cruiser to be equipped with large lifts and ammunition lifts specifically for aviation operations. Although the "Kunlun" class does not have a hanger behind the main gun ammunition depot of the Hangar Fighter, and the ammunition elevator of the empty ammunition depot can only accommodate the surname stewed aviation ammunition here, compared with the previous cruisers, the "Kunlun" class is definitely a veritable "aviation cruiser". According to the tactical indicators formulated by the Navy of the Republic, under normal circumstances, the "Kunlun" class can provide support for vertical take-off and landing transport planes and low-altitude attack aircraft of the Navy and the Army, and when necessary, it can also support carrier-based fighters.

Because warships are large combat platforms, survivability must also be fully considered.

You must know that there are more than 1,000 officers and men on a battleship, and there are several officers and men at the least, if the survivability is not enough. The resulting casualties are often unbearable. It can be said that when any large warship is designed, survivability is placed in an important position, and even regarded as the most important design indicator.

In a sense, the "trimaran boat type" replaces the "catamaran boat type." "It's because the ability to survive is better. If you think about it purely from the point of view of sailability. This is because the catamaran has much less drag at high sailing, and it can also design the hull above the surface of the water as an energetic body, providing extra energy at high sailing, thus reducing the resistance of the underwater section. As a result, its fluid performance is even better. The only advantage of the "trimaran surfing boat" is that its resistance to blows is far greater than that of the "catamaran surfing boat". Theoretically speaking, as long as the energy provided by the secondary energy body is controlled within the total energy of the gem, it will not sink if the main energy body is not damaged, and it can leave the danger area with maximum navigation.

The problem is that the specific gravity of steel exceeds that of seawater. So there are no unsinkable battleships.

More importantly, as the maximum voyage of the warship was increased to the blade joint, the traditional ship type and the traditional fluid mechanics would no longer be useful, otherwise the Republic and the United States would not vigorously develop the "surf ship type." "That's where the key is, whether it's a trimaran or a catamaran, it's about displacement. In this way, when the hull is damaged, or even only the shape and structure of the energy body is damaged, not only will the ship's degree be sharply reduced, but it will even be difficult to continue to float on the water, and the ability to resist strikes is not as good as that of traditional ships. Although the higher degree gives modern ships more powerful survivability, in fact. The survivability of modern ships is certainly much better than before. But modern anti-ship weapons are also becoming more and more powerful, so the threat to modern ships is not any smaller.

When the technology hits a bottleneck and it is difficult to break through, the ingenious design is very important.

The "Kunlun" class cruiser is being designed. The most epochal is the "separable functional module".

The biggest feature of "detachable functional modules" is that some dangerous or extremely important functional module designs are designed with fully enclosed requirements by using automation technology, and they are connected to other functional modules in the form of external splicing. When used in combat, if these modules are attacked and there is a danger of endangering the battleship, the control computer on the battleship, or the command staff, can take the initiative to abandon the functional module. This is equivalent to "a strong man's broken arm." Or "abandon the car to protect the handsome". Although the combat capability of the warship will be affected, or even incapacitated, it will not sink because of the explosion of the ammunition depot, at least not with catastrophic consequences, so that the officers and men on the battleship will have time to evacuate.

It has already been mentioned. After the tall ship type is adopted, the shape of the ship has a great influence on the navigation, so the "separable functional module" is adopted. The prerequisite is to carry out a detailed design of the basic hull to ensure that after abandoning part of the modules, the ship; The old knowledge is enough to leave the danger zone at a relatively high level, not that Zongcang Fire lacks the ability to be stunned. What's more, because the "detachable function modules" are all enclosed and completely operated by computers or remote control by personnel, the requirements for automation and reliability are very high. Taking the ammunition depot as an example, in addition to the automatic delivery of ammunition, it also has to go to sea for dozens of days, months, or even more than 10 months. Guarantee that the ammunition inside will not be dangerous due to lack of maintenance.

It can be said that this design concept is not very complicated, and no one thought of it before, just because of the implementation.

In the era of the introduction of the century, as the module technology became more and more advanced, the design concept also became practical.

Although at the time of the design of the "Kunlun" class. Influenced by tactical thinking, traditional concepts, personnel talents, etc., the application scope of the "separable functional module" is very narrow, only used in the ammunition depot, missile launcher and main power compartment, and other functional modules still use the traditional design method, which has not greatly improved the performance of the warship, and it is impossible to replace the functional module at any time according to the operational needs of later warships, but at that time, this was definitely a very advanced design idea. It feels unbelievable. Even most Western news media, especially the American news media, do not believe that the "separable functional module" can greatly improve the survivability of warships in modern warfare and change the embarrassing situation of warships being vulnerable in the face of anti-ship weapons. After all, the "Kunlun" class has used this design to use functional modules that are easy to pose a threat to the safety of the whole ship, especially the ammunition depot, and the fully enclosed external connection method will definitely have a negative impact on the stability of the battleship, seaworthiness, the structural strength of the underwater part and other performance indicators related to survivability. The problem is that this completely new design concept was quickly supported by more countries. In fact, even the US Navy made the same choice.

Among the many "follow-the-trend", the most famous is the Curse Tun type integrated destroyer of the Republic Navy.

Strictly speaking, the research code of this kind of comprehensive destroyer, which was officially named "Qinghai Lake", should be Shen, that is, the project was established for many years, because it was only at this time that the design plan of the "Kunlun" class was determined. It was decided to use "separable function modules".

Compared with the "Kunlun" class, the "continuity" of the "abandoned sea lake" class is very prominent.

In fact, the "Qinghai Lake" class is a reduced and improved version of the "Kunlun" class. The new address of this site has been changed to: just a mouth... 8。 Please log in to read the tomb!

Although the distinction between cruisers and destroyers in the modern navy is still relatively clear, that is, cruisers are the main escort warships that protect aircraft carriers, rehabitation assault ships and other main combat ships, and have all-round combat capabilities and can play a unique role in naval warfare, while destroyers are only secondary escort warships, but they have relatively perfect independent combat capabilities, that is, they can perform combat missions alone. But it is undeniable that the difference between cruisers and destroyers is getting smaller and smaller, especially in terms of displacement. The gap between the two is getting smaller and smaller. Of course, in the navy of a certain country, the displacement is generally above that of destroyers, because cruisers undertake more comprehensive combat missions and tactical performance indicators are higher than destroyers.

Because of the similar displacement, the basic tactical indicators, such as aviation and endurance, are relatively close. Therefore, both the Republic Navy and the U.S. Navy rarely design two large warships, but on the same hull, according to different operational needs, with different combat weapons to achieve different combat purposes. In fact, as early as the Lichen century, the US Navy's "Spruance"-class destroyers used the same hull as the "Ticonderoga"-class cruisers. The difference is that the U.S. Navy likes to do a scaled-up design on the basis of destroyers, while the Republic Navy likes to do a scaled-down design on the basis of cruisers. Although these two designs can't say who is good and who is bad. However, it can also be seen that the focus of the two sides is not the same. Anyway. Larger hulls always provide a more comprehensive combat capability for the warship, and the cost is correspondingly higher. It can be seen from this. The Navy of the Republic has always regarded the US Navy as an adversary, and its goal is to defeat the US Navy in terms of infrastructure, so it will not hesitate to pay a higher cost to improve the combat effectiveness of its warships. For a long period of time. The U.S. Navy did not regard the Republic Navy as an adversary, and did not put performance in the key position of design, but paid more attention to the cost-effectiveness ratio.

Another feature of destroyers compared to cruisers is that they are much more numerous.

The "Qinling" class was divided into three batches, and a total of many Liduo ships were built before and after, and many destroyers of the "Taihu" class were built in the same era, which was almost three times the size of the "Qinling" class. If we count the standard displacement of the "Jinshan" class ocean-going anti-submarine frigates, which are mainly anti-submarine ships of the fleet, they are already enough to meet the standards of destroyers, and the number of destroyers is seven times that of cruisers. The reason for the massive construction of destroyers is also simple, that is, as multi-purpose warships, destroyers are able to obtain comprehensive combat capabilities second only to cruisers at a much cheaper price. In the vast majority of cases, destroyers are capable of completing combat missions. Only in extremely special times was it necessary to cover the aircraft carrier by a cruiser.

It is precisely because of this that the "Qinghai Lake" class is more eye-catching than the "Kunlun" class.
