631. Abnormal movement
However, as an upgrade of the 051, the hull size is larger than the 051, but it is significantly smaller than the later 052C and 052D, so naturally it can't fit all the equipment of the 052D.
Moreover, as a warship designed in the 80s, there are many places that need to be adjusted for comprehensive transformation, and at the same time, it is impossible to copy the ready-made templates of Taiyuan, Kunming, or Shenzhen and Wenzhou.
Mu Feng can only study the transformation plan from scratch according to the brand-new missile destroyer of the first class.
However, for Mu Feng, who has a lot of experience, this is not much difficulty.
After all, the World War II cruiser directly changed to a modern missile destroyer, and he himself has done more than one or two, and it is not a matter to transform a modern destroyer.
According to the custom, Mufeng first cleans and adjusts the cabin, and then applies the integrated power system to replace the gas turbine.
The two sisters, Harbin and Qingdao, are the only warships in the PLAN to use the LM2500 set of American gas turbines.
Designed in the 60s, the LM2500 is almost the standard configuration for destroyers and frigates of NATO and its allies, and its sales are very large all over the world.
As an industrial product that needs to be "used", LM2500 can be said to be a very mature and stable product.
But Mu Feng did not intend to study this gas turbine, because the PLAN is clearly not a Western navy.
Only 052 uses two of his own family, and all the other gas turbines are all GT25000 originating in Ukraine.
GT25000 was designed by the Soviet Dawning Mechanical Plant in 1986 and taken over by Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
However, at that time, it coincided with the collapse of the Soviet Union, and the countries related to the former Soviet Union had no demand, and GT25000 in the end it was only a paper product.
In the end, it was in the hands of PLAN that the production test was finally completed and shipped practically.
PLAN already had the LM2500 in its hands, and when it came to perfecting the GT25000, it was clear that it had borrowed some kind of design from the LM2500.
GT25000 as a product of the 80s, the design indicators were a cut above the LM2500 of the 60s from the beginning.
Moreover, the LM2500 used in Harbin is itself a very old model, and as an export product, it was not the best model for the United States from the beginning, so of course it must be replaced now.
Mufeng's GT series gas turbines are fully mature, and of course there is no need to toss the LM2500 again.
After Mu Feng dismantled the gas turbine for Harbin, he first adjusted the surrounding space and simulated the installation scene in the system.
The GT25000IC space is quite spacious, and if you install a larger GT5000ICR, the space is a little tight, but it is not impossible to fit.
Mu Feng's habit is that if you can install a big one, you can install a big one, and directly replace it with two GT50000ICR.
With a maximum of 210,000 horsepower and a hull of 4,800 tons, Mu Feng roughly estimated in her heart that she could run at least 45 knots, so she also had to build a special scientific research plan to make targeted high-speed adjustments to the hull line.
After the gas turbine was installed, the intake and exhaust channels were first set up, and then the hull structure and equipment were modified from the bottom up.
All kinds of radars, control, and command systems were dismantled and rebuilt, and all anti-aircraft missiles and main guns were dismantled, and after enough space was vacated, the vertical launch system that is now common to the Mufeng fleet began to be arranged.
The hull space is limited, it is smaller than the 052D, and a larger gas turbine is used, and in the end Harbin is only equipped with 64 sets of vertical hair, which is comparable to the 052D before the change, but the 052 before the change has been reborn.
Since it is a universal vertical hair, then all the missiles that can be used in 055 can be used, but in some places the vertical hair depth is not enough, and all anti-ship and cruise missiles cannot be installed, and only medium and short-range anti-aircraft missiles can be placed, and air defense missiles are supposed to be installed, so this does not affect the use.
After loading the vertical hair, the main gun in the bow of the ship was removed and replaced with a twin 155mm electromagnetic gun common to the destroyers of the Mufeng fleet.
On the platform behind the ship's guns, a set of 1130 close defense systems is installed.
After the bridge shape was repaired, the latest active phased array radar was installed, and the mast was changed to an integrated one.
The stern of the ship was adjusted to replace it with a Z-20 helicopter, and a group of 24 Haihongqi-10 close-in defense missiles was installed above the hangar.
Other radars and equipment, referring to the layout of 052D, were placed in suitable positions on the hull one by one.
After the completion of the transformation, the Harbin can be said to be a condensed version of the 052D.
The 052D on the earth was originally a 6,000-ton hull with 8,000 tons of equipment, but now the 052 is only 5,000 tons and 8,000 tons of equipment, and the utilization rate of internal space is outrageous.
The difficulty of this transformation is actually quite large, Mu Feng repeatedly let the system test several times, adjust the problems found by the system one by one, and if it can't be adjusted, it has to temporarily give up some equipment and functions.
It's a little regrettable, but if I think about it, after Harbin can take the initiative to transform the ship, the hull can be reshaped, and the current state is only temporary, and Mu Feng is relieved in his heart.
After confirming that everything was correct, Harbin changed into several sets of uniforms from the headquarters, plus a few sets of daily clothes, and confirmed the transformation plan.
Watching Harbin enter a dormant state, Mu Feng let out a long breath, stood up and stretched.
Forty minutes later, Harbin opened his eyes, stared at the ceiling for a few seconds, then blinked his eyes and glanced at Mu Feng sitting next to him, then sat up very lazily and leaned in front of Mu Feng:
"Commander, have you been here all this time?"
Mu Feng nodded:
"Well, when the hull is adjusted, it can't be disturbed, someone must guard it."
Harbin smiled and nodded:
"Thank you."
Mu Feng chuckled:
"You're welcome to do this, this is what I should do as a commander, okay, don't talk about this, you can see the effect of your transformation."
Harbin nodded seriously again, opened his ship's uniform, and looked at the dense weapons and equipment on his body, Harbin's expression was a little dazed, there were too many new equipment that he had never seen at all.
Seeing this, Mu Feng couldn't help but smile, and approached her and said:
"I'll show you how to use ......"
Mu Feng first explained to Harbin the new equipment on her ship, and after getting acquainted with it, she went to sea trials to familiarize herself with the actual operation.
On the third day, Mu Feng also asked Harbin to join the defensive fleet of Kunming and Xiao Shi, and Mu Feng once again led the three of them to fight together.
These three are all newcomers recently, and they all need to be guided, and none of them can take the initiative to hull, and they need to adjust the command ship at any time, so that they can have a suitable person to enter the hull battle at any time.
On the fourth day, that is, a week after the end of the IJN battle, in the evening of that day, Mu Feng returned to the Space Island Military Port with Xiao Shi, Kunming, and Harbin, who had been fighting for a day, and was about to go to the restaurant for dinner, when he suddenly received a report from Liaoning:
"Commander, there is an abnormal situation in the deep sea of the Southern Isles, and a large number of deep seas have suddenly left the base."
