Lin Daxin sat on the plane from Hong Kong to New York, and recalled in his heart the information on the US aircraft carrier that Song Keer had prepared for him last night.

In modern time and space, the United States is the third country to have aircraft carriers after Britain and Japan. The first U.S. Navy aircraft carrier, the USS Langley, was converted from the original civilian coal carrier USS Jupitt, which began to serve as an aircraft carrier on March 20, 1922, and was the first aircraft carrier of the U.S. Navy.

However, although the United States is the third country to have aircraft carriers, the United States attaches great importance to aircraft carriers, and the United States has successively built more classes of aircraft carriers, including Lexington-class, Ranger-class, Yorktown-class, Vespa-class and other ship-class aircraft carriers, before the Pacific War, the United States Navy has completed the construction of aircraft carriers to become seven, the number has surpassed the British Navy and the Japanese Navy.

With the outbreak of the Pacific War, in order to deal with the scorching Japanese Navy, the United States built 9 Independence-class aircraft carriers, 24 Essex-class aircraft carriers, 3 Midway-class aircraft carriers, and even hundreds of escort aircraft carriers.

After the end of World War II, the United States suddenly became the hegemon of the world, in order to maintain its hegemonic status, the United States aircraft carriers are still building happily, and have successively built 2 Saiban aircraft carriers, 4 Forrestal-class aircraft carriers, 4 Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carriers, 1 enterprise-class aircraft carrier, 10 Nimitz-class aircraft carriers, and 1 Ford-class aircraft carrier.

Among them, the Enterprise-class aircraft carrier, the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, and the Ford-class aircraft carrier are all nuclear-powered, and they are all currently in service with the US Navy, and the newest Ford-class aircraft carrier, the USS Ford, has just been commissioned. The Americans also have 2 Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers under construction.

As for the 12 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers that the United States is now in service, Lin Daxin has no idea at all. Not to mention that it is impossible for him to get close to those nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, it is for him to get these nuclear-powered aircraft carriers to the time and space of the Chinese Empire. Lin Daxin couldn't find anyone to fiddle with these nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and those countless advanced electronic equipment and weapons and equipment were not something that the officers and men of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire could play.

Lin Daxin set his goal of preparing to do it on the aircraft carriers mothballed by the U.S. Navy, among the aircraft carriers mothballed by the U.S. Navy, there are even some aircraft carriers built during World War II, you said that there is no major war in the world now, and the U.S. Navy has the world's most powerful 12 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers. Then those mothballed aircraft carriers, you Americans can't use them, so let them go to another time and space to exert their residual heat!

According to Song Keer's information to Lin Daxin, 4 Essex-class aircraft carriers were transformed into aircraft carrier museums by the Americans, and 1 Midway-class aircraft carrier and 1 Forrestal-class aircraft carrier were also built into aircraft carrier museums, but these 6 aircraft carriers were not Lin Daxin's first target, Lin Daxin put the first target on the ship mothballing base on the Delaware River southeast of Philadelphia, USA.

Lin Daxin knew from the information that the ship mothballing base in Philadelphia is currently mothballing the other two Midway-class aircraft carriers. In addition, there are 2 Forrestal-class aircraft carriers and 3 Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carriers are also there, these 7 conventionally powered aircraft carriers, Lin Daxin is ready to get them all to the time and space of the Chinese Empire.

The Americans of modern time and space, in addition to these mothballed aircraft carriers mentioned above. Other conventionally powered aircraft carriers were either dismantled, sunk for various reasons, or even sold to other countries.

As for the other countries of the modern time and space. There weren't so many aircraft carriers for Lin Daxin to steal, and the Soviet Union, the predecessor of Russia, also built a lot of aircraft carriers during the Cold War. Now, with the exception of a handful of them, all but a few of the other Soviet-built aircraft carriers have become completely scrap metal. As for other countries, after World War II, a few ships were not built in total, and Lin Daxin could only steal them from the Americans.

Lin Daxin has not been aiming at the Americans, although he stole 7 super dreadnought battleships from the Americans a few years ago, and now he is going to steal the Americans' aircraft carriers, but he is really not only targeting the Americans, just because only the United States has the warships he needs.

The Midway-class aircraft carrier of the US Navy with a standard displacement of 59000 tons and a full load displacement of 67500 tons, The length of the ship is 295.5 meters, the width of the ship is 34.5 meters, the maximum draft is 10 meters, 8 heavy oil boilers, 4 steam boiler turbines, the maximum speed is 33 knots, it has 14 caliber 127 mm high-level dual-purpose anti-aircraft guns, 21 four-caliber caliber 40 mm anti-aircraft guns, 28 caliber 20 mm single-barreled anti-aircraft guns, the thickness of the flight deck armor is 150 mm, it can carry about 80 fighters of various kinds, and it requires a staffing of 4,100 people.

In addition, the two Midway-class aircraft carriers at the Philadelphia ship mothballing base have also been modernized with the addition of missile launchers and missile defense systems.

The other five mothballed aircraft carriers, which are relatively advanced conventionally powered aircraft carriers, have been in service in the US Navy for many years, and at the time of construction, missile launchers and missile defense systems were already installed.

The Forrestal-class aircraft carrier has a standard displacement of 59060 tons and a full load displacement of 76600 tons, The ship is 301.7 meters long, 39.3 meters wide, 10.8 meters in maximum draft, 8 heavy oil boilers, 4 steam boiler turbines, and a maximum speed of 30 knots, with 8 caliber 127 mm high-level dual-purpose anti-aircraft guns, 3 eight-mounted anti-aircraft missile launchers, 3 6-tube 20-mm phalanx close-in defense guns, 4 6-tube infrared tracer bombs and jamming chaff bomb launchers, and also has a torpedo defense missile system for surface ships, with a flight deck armor thickness of 150 mm, which can carry more than 85 fighters of various types, and requires a staffing of 4,670 people.

The Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carrier has a standard displacement of 61,174 tons, a full load displacement of 82,000 tons, a length of 323.6 meters, and a width of 39.6 meters. It has a maximum draft of 11.4 meters and four new boilers. It has a maximum speed of 30 knots and has three eight-mounted anti-aircraft missile launchers. 3 6-tube 20-mm Phalanx close-in defense guns, 4 6-tube IR tracer bullets and jamming chrocket launchers, and also have a torpedo defense missile system for surface ships, with a flight deck armor thickness of 150 mm, which can carry about 90 fighters and require a staffing of 3,500 people.

Lin Daxin was very excited when he saw the 7 conventionally powered aircraft carriers mothballed in the Philadelphia Ship Storage Base, if he could get them all to the time and space of the Chinese Empire, his Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire could add 7 aircraft carriers that were more powerful than the Mythical class aircraft carriers. In this war with almost all the great powers in the world, it can reduce a lot of losses on the warships of the Royal Navy, after all, more aircraft carriers mean that there are more aircraft carrier fighters that can carry out air strikes on enemy warships, and it will be easier to win the naval battle, and even have a great impact on the course of the entire war, of course, it is beneficial to the side of the Chinese Empire.

And according to the information provided by Song Keer, because of the recent complexity of the world situation, these 7 mothballed aircraft carriers. As well as 1 Midway-class aircraft carrier and 1 Forrestal-class aircraft carrier that serve as an aircraft carrier museum, the Americans have just maintained them, and if war breaks out, these 9 American aircraft carriers have been decommissioned. As long as carrier-based aircraft and missiles are fully equipped, it is completely possible to rejoin the ranks of the US Navy in active service in a short period of time. Go to the battlefield.

In this way, the seven aircraft carriers in the Philadelphia ship mothballing base basically do not need to be repaired after they get to the time and space of the Chinese Empire. It is only necessary to remove some superfluous things and equip them with the aircraft carrier fighters of the Chinese Empire. It can be delivered to the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, but it is a pity that there are no carrier-based aircraft and those advanced missiles on these 7 aircraft carriers, otherwise it would be even more perfect.

After Lin Daxin's flight landed at the airport in New York, Lin Daxin took several bodyguards and several senior executives of Daxin Holdings to a five-star hotel in New York City by car, Lin Daxin and several bodyguards lived in a luxury suite, and several other high-level executives of Daxin Holdings lived in ordinary rooms.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of others, Lin Daxin did not take a plane directly to Philadelphia, after all, Lin Daxin's identity is now there, he came to the United States this time to nominally inspect an American network company, ready to acquire it, but the specific inspection matters, were handed over to several senior executives of Daxin Holdings, Lin Daxin just lived in a five-star hotel, he changed clothes with a bodyguard, and secretly left the hotel.

Nominally, Lin Daxin will always stay in the luxury suite, and the few bodyguards he brings are his henchmen in Huaxinghui, and they will help Lin Daxin cover up, so that others think that Lin Daxin has been staying in the luxury suite, but they don't know what Lin Daxin is going to do when he leaves, and several senior executives of Daxin Holdings don't know that Lin Daxin will leave secretly.

After Lin Daxin walked out of the main entrance of the lobby of the five-star hotel, a member of the Huaxing Club who had been arranged for a long time immediately greeted him, gave Lin Daxin a car key, pointed to a car not far away, and then left quickly.

Lin Daxin took the key and got into the car, and then drove the car, relying on the navigator in the car, and went straight to Philadelphia, which is not far from New York, and in the trunk of the car, there was a set of diving equipment.

After Lin Daxin came to Philadelphia, he did not enter the city, but drove directly to the direction of the Philadelphia ship sealing base, a few kilometers away from the ship sealing base, Lin Daxin did not drive to continue to approach, but took advantage of the fact that there was no one on the highway, drove the car to a dense grass and hid, at this time it was already more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

Then Lin Daxin directly picked up the bread, sausages and drinks on the co-pilot and ate them, and after eating, he leaned on the driver's seat and closed his eyes to recuperate, and waited until the sky was completely dark, Lin Daxin got out of the car and opened the trunk, took out a set of diving equipment of more than 50 kilograms, and walked in the direction near the ship's sealing base with the diving equipment on his own, and walked very fast.

Thanks to Lin Daxin's body, which has been strengthened by the crossing ring, otherwise ordinary people carrying more than 50 kilograms of diving equipment would not have thought of walking a few kilometers so quickly.

The ship mothballing base is not something that just one person can enter, so Lin Daxin can only walk to the Delaware River 1 kilometer away from the ship's mothballing base, and then dive underwater, and then get one aircraft carrier after another to the time and space of the Chinese Empire.

Soon Lin Daxin walked to the destination, his breath was not messy, and he walked so far with more than 50 kilograms of diving equipment, and the speed was still so fast, but it was the same as walking empty-handed.

Lin Daxin put the things on his shoulders on the ground, and then took out a night vision telescope from a pile of equipment.

Through the telescope that can see at night, Lin Daxin saw a large row of giant warships parked at the dock, and on the river not far from the dock, there are also several rows of huge warships, these warships have a wide variety, in addition to the aircraft carriers that Lin Daxin is hot about, there are also missile cruisers, missile destroyers, amphibious landing ships and dozens of other warships of various types.

For other types of warships, Lin Daxin is mostly not interested, because many warships here rely on missiles to attack the enemy, and the scientific and technological strength of the Chinese Empire is still unable to manufacture missiles.

Moreover, the large row of warships that came out of the dock, and the rows of warships that were quietly parked on the river, were almost all rusty, almost all of them were scrapped warships.

This ship mothballing base in Philadelphia has another name that everyone recognizes, that is, the ship graveyard.

After all, in order to cope with the current situation in the world, the Americans have just invested nearly $1 billion to repair 9 decommissioned aircraft carriers, so that 9 aircraft carriers can be converted to active service at any time, and 7 of them are here.

The 7 aircraft carriers on the dock are still one by one, and when Lin Daxin saw this, the smile on his face became stronger, which was really convenient for himself.

This American is really interesting, it seems that he knows that Lin Daxin is going to steal these 7 aircraft carriers, and not long ago he repaired them from the inside out, although they are not equipped with weapons, but as long as there is fuel, there is no problem at all with 7 aircraft carriers, isn't this the spirit of self-sacrifice! What a commendable deserving!

Lin Daxin put on a piece of diving equipment with ease, and then walked into the Delaware River and quickly disappeared on the river...... (To be continued.) )
