Chapter 855: The Feelings of the Cannon Giant
In fact, British Admiral Fisher did not know that the main warships of the Imperial Chinese Navy were no longer 104, or that the 104 capital warships could not be called the main warships of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lin Daxin stole 2 large aircraft carriers, 2 small aircraft carriers, 4 escort aircraft carriers, 6 missile battleships, 6 missile battle cruisers, 12 missile cruisers, 20 missile destroyers, 20 missile frigates and 18 submarines stolen from the navy of the Kingdom of Cass on the Blue Water Planet, as well as 1 Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, 4 missile destroyers, 4 missile frigates, and 1 Ford-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, 4 missile destroyers, and 4 missile frigates that have been stolen from the U.S. Navy in modern time and space and have been left in the time and space of the Chinese Empire. Four nuclear-powered attack submarines and two amphibious assault ships were all delivered to the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, and a large number of personnel from various fleets of the Royal Navy were dispatched to these warships to explore and learn from their various equipment and weapons.
Prior to this, Lin Daxin had already asked the Secrecy Bureau to transfer some personnel to clean up all the warships, and remove all the traces of the untimely to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.
The warships of the U.S. Navy in modern time and space were formed by Lin Daxin to form the first task force of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, and the warships of the Cass Kingdom Navy from the time and space of the Blue Water Planet were respectively formed by Lin Daxin The second task force and the third task force of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, and the carrier-based aircraft of the three task force aircraft carrier formations were all equipped with carrier-based aircraft on the original aircraft carrier.
What made Lin Daxin a little depressed was that in order to launch a large-scale attack on the Lombalou Imperial Army by the Free Army, Lin Daxin transported a large number of missiles and other ammunition that he had stolen before to the time and space of the Blue Water Planet. Unlike the Chinese Empire, the warships of various countries in this time and space attack methods, if there are no accidents, it can completely destroy a small enemy fleet at a very slight cost.
Lin Daxin will not use these three task force aircraft carrier formations easily, he is ready to leave these warships that are decades ahead of this time and space at the most critical moment, of course, it is best not to use these three cross-era task force aircraft carrier formations.
British Prime Minister Herbert? Henry? When Asquith heard the Admiral Fisher say that among the warships in service in the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, there were 1 super dreadnought battleship and 3 dreadnought battleships of the original British Navy, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "This is definitely an indelible shame for our Royal Navy of the British Empire, if a war breaks out with the Chinese Empire in the future, the above four warships, the Royal Navy of the British Empire must set them as the first target to be sunk." ”
Admiral Fisher nodded without hesitation and said: "Your Excellency the Prime Minister is very right, as long as there is a war with the Chinese Empire in the future, those 4 dreadnought battleships captured by the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, as well as other warships of our Royal Navy of the British Empire captured by the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, will become the primary target of our Royal Navy of the British Empire, and these warships that represent the shame of the Royal Navy of the British Empire must all be sunk to the bottom of the sea in order to maintain the glory of the Royal Navy of the British Empire." ”
Hearing Fisher shouting about the glory of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, Air Minister Rossberry couldn't help but pout, the Royal Navy of the British Empire, which had been defeated by the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire several times, where was there any glory to speak of!
Air Force Secretary Rossberry and Navy Secretary Fisher, because of the Navy and Air Force fighter distribution ratio, there was a deep contradiction between each other, plus the two people originally looked at each other unpleasantly, in the past two years, Rossberry and Fisher have almost reached the point of incompatibility, and even the British Navy and Air Force have begun to-for-tat on many things.
Air Force Minister Rossbereid suddenly interjected: "Prime Minister, although the Navy is building 12 Queen Elizabeth-class super battleships, 12 Tiger battlecruisers and 8 Glorious-class aircraft carriers, the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire is not idle, according to intelligence, there are also 8 aircraft carriers, 12 super battleships and 12 battle cruisers under construction in the shipyards of the Chinese Empire, and our Royal Navy of the British Empire will add 30 capital warships in the next 2 years, The Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire has also increased the number of capital warships by almost 30 in 2 years, in the final analysis, our Royal Navy of the British Empire is still much weaker than the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, and this phenomenon will exist for a long time. ”
The eight aircraft carriers under construction by the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire are based on the Midway-class aircraft carriers, Forrestal-class aircraft carriers and Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carriers that Lin Daxin stole from modern time and space, and directly developed this kind of large aircraft carriers that can be used by the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire for many years, and are also classified by Lin Daxin as emperor-class aircraft carriers.
8 Emperor-class aircraft carriers, with a standard displacement of 65,000 tons, a full load displacement of 78,000 tons, a length of 312 meters, a width of 39.5 meters, a maximum draft of 10.8 meters, 8 heavy oil boilers, 4 steam boiler turbines, a maximum speed of 29 knots, equipped with 16 88 mm high-level dual-purpose anti-aircraft guns, 20 caliber 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine guns, flight deck armor thickness of 140 mm, can carry 48 lightning fighters, 24 Thunderbolt dive bombers, 24 Thunder torpedo bombers, 12 Thunder horizontal bombers and 4 reconnaissance aircraft, with a staffing of 3,100 people.
Lightning fighters, Thunderbolt dive bombers, Thunder torpedo bombers and Thunder horizontal bombers have all reached the level of World War II in history, and their performance is definitely comparable to the leaders of World War II fighters, and they are a new generation of carrier-based aircraft equipped with the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, but these fighters are not jet fighters.
Although there are design drawings and physical objects provided by Lin Daxin, it will take a long time for the Chinese Empire to develop its own jet fighter, and the jet engine developed by the Chinese Empire Aircraft Factory is too heavy and lacks thrust to be equipped with fighters.
The other aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy of the Imperial Chinese Navy have been replaced with a new generation of carrier-based aircraft, and now the Royal Air Force of the Imperial Chinese Navy is also equipped with a new generation of fighters, and there are no jet fighters, but the performance is comparable to the excellent fighters of various countries during World War II.
Originally, because of the emergence of aircraft carriers, the era of battleships was already sunset, but Lin Daxin still ordered the construction of 12 more Yellow River-class super battleships and 12 gem-class battlecruisers to pull Europe and the United States and other countries to continue to build battleships, all of this money was paid by Lin Daxin privately, Lin Daxin has a unique feeling for cannon giant ships, many senior generals of the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire, for the emperor to build 12 Yellow River-class super battleships and 12 gem-class battlecruisers, I feel a little speechless, this is the rich and capricious!
However, dreadnought battleships are not useless in naval warfare in this era, because of certain limitations of reconnaissance means, maritime means of identifying friend and foe, and naval warfare tactics, and if aircraft carriers are allowed to enter the effective range of dreadnought battleships, it will be disastrous for aircraft carriers.
The Yellow River-class super battleship has a standard displacement of 44,000 tons, a full load displacement of 52,000 tons, and a length of 265 meters. The ship has a width of 32.5 meters, a draft of 10.2 meters, 8 heavy oil boilers, 4 steam boiler turbines, a maximum speed of 28 knots, waterline armor of 280 mm to 334 mm, deck armor of 47 mm to 127 mm, main gun turret armor of 450 mm, conning tower armor of 450 mm, equipped with 4 triple batteries of 45 times caliber 406 mm main guns, 18 high-level dual-purpose 127 mm secondary guns, 16 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine guns, and a crew of 1,830 people.
Jewel-class battlecruiser with a standard displacement of 31,000 tons, a full load displacement of 35,600 tons, a length of 210 meters, and a beam of 31 meters, The maximum draft is 9.7 meters, it has 8 heavy oil boilers and 4 steam boiler turbines, the maximum speed can reach 30.5 knots, the waterline armor is 203 mm to 305 mm, the deck armor is 47 mm to 105 mm, the main gun turret armor is 330 mm, the conning tower is 330 mm, and it is equipped with 4 triple 45 times caliber 381 mm main guns, 18 high-level dual-purpose 127 mm secondary guns, 16 12.7 mm anti-aircraft machine guns, and 1680 crew members.
When British Admiral Fisher heard Air Secretary Rossberry's words, he immediately snorted coldly in his heart, and then said: "It is precisely because the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire is building aircraft carriers, super battleships and battle cruisers on a large scale that our Royal Navy of the British Empire has built so many main warships in one go in the past two years, otherwise the strength of our Royal Navy of the British Empire will lag even further behind the Royal Navy of the Chinese Empire. ”
Air Secretary Rossberid immediately said: "I have no objection to the Royal Navy building aircraft carriers, but why build those super-dreadnought battleships and battlecruisers that have proven to be backward?" If we save the funds and use them for our air force, I am confident that the Royal Air Force of the British Empire will match and surpass the air force of the Chinese Empire in terms of strength.
