Chapter 15: Deploying Battleships (Part II)

There are a total of 6 M medium slots, 8 S small slots, and 2 A slot function slots.

It is worth mentioning that the destroyer he ordered was not a regular Tornado-class destroyer, but an elite Hurricane-class destroyer, which not only had higher basic stats than the regular Tornado-class, but also added more slots.

But correspondingly, there are 150 million bare ships for conventional Tornado-class destroyers and 250 million for elite Hurricane-class destroyers, which is a full 100 million star dollars more.

Destroyer (Hurricane class): A multi-purpose ship with the functions of assault, air defense, escort, patrol, alert, reconnaissance, etc.

Attribute:

Base hull: 10,000

Base armor: 10000

Base Shield: 10000

Base speed: 140000 km / h

Default Tactic: Sentinel Tactic.

Fleet slot size: 2.

Advanced giant gunboat bow module, advanced gunboat stern module.

Components: Energy Core, Tachyon Elements, Thrusters, Probes, Combat Computer.

Weapon slots: L4, M12.

Universal slots: M7, S8, A2.

In fact, he would prefer to be a superior Black Hawk-class destroyer, but the shipyard does not have any drawings for this.

And this is just the beginning of spending money, and then Li Qing deleted and reduced the configuration list, and added several slots to this destroyer.

According to the limit of the Hurricane-class destroyer's modification, a total of 15 modification points were added, and 2 additional L large weapon slots that each occupied 6 modification values were added, spending 50 million * 2 = 100 million star dollars to directly fill the attack power, and the remaining 3 modification values increased by an M medium general slot that occupied 3 modification values, spending 10 million, just spent up.

The total cost: 25000000 + 1000000 + 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Then, there is the second most expensive item, the weapon and universal slot configuration.

It is worth mentioning that his total of four L large weapon slots are not conventional large weapons, but L slot main cannon weapons.

In the sea of stars, there are four types of weapons: M medium, S small, P slot point defense, and machine guns, each weapon slot is actually two guns, one on each side of the battleship.

And there is only one X super large slot, G missile slot, and T slot doomsday weapons.

Among them, the L large slot is a bit special, because this large slot has two templates, one is a conventional template, and it is also a slot divided into two guns.

One is the main gun template, which has only one cannon in one slot, and the main gun equipped with the L large slot is more powerful than a single conventional large weapon, but the price is more expensive.

The four L large weapons are equipped with kinetic weapons advanced kinetic energy railguns, which are more powerful than kinetic energy railguns, each with 50 million each, and four guns with a total of 200 million star yuan.

Advanced Kinetic Railgun: A very advanced kinetic artillery that fires high-powered, long-range kinetic cannonballs.

Type: Instant, Kinetic.

Damage: 2800-5000.

Rate of fire: 90 sec/round.

Hit: 90%.

Range: 1500 km.

Fixed: +50% shield damage.

Fixed: -25% armor damage.

Then the 12 M medium weapon slots are also equipped with kinetic weapons, fifth-generation electromagnetic guns

5th Generation Electromagnetic Cannon (Medium): A long-range antimatter cannon capable of firing powerful kinetic projectiles at very long distances.

Type: Instant, Kinetic.

Damage: 500-700.

Rate of fire: 25 sec/round.

Hit: 75%.

Firing range: 500 km.

Fixed: +25% shield damage.

Fixed: -50% armor damage.

The price of the fifth-generation electromagnetic gun (medium) is 10 million for two sets, and a total of 12 sets cost 120 million.

After the weapon is configured, the next step is the universal slot, a total of 7 M medium general slots, 8 S small general slots, and 2 A type function slots.

Li Qing thought about it, and 2 of the 7 M medium general slots were equipped with fifth-generation medium energy shields, each increasing the energy shield value by 4000, and the energy automatically regenerating by 2 points per second. The other 5 are equipped with 5th generation neutron armor, each increasing 3,000 armor points, as well as 2 armor repairs per second.

The price of both the fifth-generation medium shield and the fifth-generation medium armor is 8.8 million pieces, and the 7 add up to a total of 61.6 million star dollars.

As for the 8 S small universal slots, they are fully equipped with fifth-generation small energy shields, each increasing energy shield value by 2000 points, and 1 energy per second is automatically restored.

The price of the fifth-generation small shield is 2.2 million pieces, and the total number of 8 shields is 17.6 million star dollars.

The configuration of the two A-type functional slots is the same, all of them are advanced afterburners, and the effect is the starting speed +30%, the turning rate +30%, and the conventional flight speed +20%, each with a price of 20 million, and two 40 million.

Directly pull the speed to the fullest.

The weapons plus the general slot added up, it cost 200 million + 120 million + 61.6 million + 17.6 million, a total of 399.2 million.

Coupled with the previous 25000000 bare ships plus an additional slot of 36000000, it is .....

Li Qing scratched his head and couldn't help but smack his lips:

"It's so expensive!"

The key is that this is not yet configured, and it is necessary to buy five kinds of reactors, hyperspace engines, thrusters, sensors, and combat computers.

The fifth-generation zero-point reactor destroyer version, 12 million star dollars.

The fifth-generation jump engine destroyer version has a maximum jump range of 50 light years and a price of 30 million stars.

The fifth-generation phase pulse thruster has a speed of +60%, a starting speed of +25%, a turning rate of +25%, and a price of 40 million star dollars.

The fifth-generation tachyon sensor destroyer version has a maximum detection range of 100,000 km in diameter and a price of 16 million.

The destroyer version of the advanced combat system, +10 hit, +10% flight speed, and a price of 7.5 million.

Taken together, it totals 105.5 million.

Coupled with the previous expenditure, a top-of-the-line destroyer was released, costing a total of 844.7 million star dollars.

"Tut-tut!"

The 1.2 billion star dollars just earned have suddenly lost most of them, which is simply outrageous.

This expenditure directly made Li Qing cancel the previous idea of configuring two top-equipped frigates, and at this stage, he was afraid that he would not be able to afford two.

The cost of the frigate is much less than that of the destroyer, the main thing is that there is not much money left after the matching, and he also has to buy a large number of weapons and ammunition, large weapons and ammunition are expensive and expensive, and he also has to spend money to recruit a group of crew members, and the original dead crew members need to pay a high pension.

Next, he had to stay in Jinmen for a while, and go to the engineering college to rehn his shipbuilding-related skills, which cost money.

The frigate does not need to be bought, and the current one only needs to be modified and additional slots added.

The frigate has only five modification points, and there is nothing to consider, four are equipped with S small arms slots that only account for one modification value, and one is equipped with P slot point defense, a total of five, one 5 million, a total of 25 million.

With the addition of the original slots, there are a total of 9 S-small arms slots, 2 P-type point defense slots, 5 S-small general-purpose slots, and 1 A-type functional slot.

The weapons are all fifth-generation Firestorm machine guns, with a unit price of 2.5 million, and a total of 22.5 million for 9 pieces.

Firestorm 5 Cannon: A large-caliber ballistic weapon capable of firing shell-deshelling shells at ultra-high speeds.

Type: Instant, Kinetic.

Damage: 50-60.

Rate of fire: 2 sec/round.

Hit: 50%.

Firing range: 70 km.

Fixed: +25% shield damage.

Fixed: -50% armor damage.

Even if it is a frigate, its main duty is to intercept the enemy attacking the destroyer in close quarters, so it naturally has to use the machine gun with the fastest attack speed.

The P-slot point defense is equipped with a guardian-level close-in rapid-fire gun, and the unit price is also 2.5 million, and two are 5 million.

Guardian Close-in Rapids: The ship's last line of defense, designed to defend against missiles and space fighters.

Type: Instant, Kinetic.

Damage: 3-3.

Rate of fire: 12,000 rounds per second.

Hit: 30%.

Range: 18 km.

Fixed: -75% armor damage.

Fixed: -50% hull damage.

The general slot has three shields and two armors, and the price is 2.2 million * 5 = 11 million star yuan.

The A slot is equipped with an advanced afterburner, and the unit price of the frigate version is 10 million star dollars.

Then the energy core is the frigate version of the fifth-generation zero-point reactor at a price of 8 million star dollars.

The fifth-generation jump engine of the frigate version costs 15 million star dollars.

The fifth-generation phase pulse thruster of the frigate version costs 20 million star dollars.

The corvette version of the tachyon sensor costs 8 million star dollars.

Advanced combat system in the frigate version, +10 hit, +10% rate of fire, 2.5 million star dollars.

On the whole, after deducting the price of the battleship, a total of 25 million was spent on modification + 9 fifth-generation Firestorm machine guns 22.5 million + 2 Guardian-level close defense guns 5 million + 5 S small general-purpose slots 11 million + advanced afterburner 10 million + zero reactor 8 million + fifth-generation jump engine 15 million + phase pulse thruster 20 million + tachyon sensor 5 million + advanced combat computer 2.5 million.

A total of 135 million, if you add 20 million bare ships, a top-of-the-line Haiyan-class frigate will cost 155 million.

155 million plus 84470, a total of 999.7 million, a total of 1.23 billion star dollars, shrank to 230.3 million star dollars at once.

According to the price of a top-equipped frigate, if there is another one, the remaining seventy or eighty million seems to be quite a lot, but in fact, it is not spent.

Spending money on a battleship is like running water, and many times it is not clear where the money is spent, and if you don't save more, one day you suddenly run out of money, and it's over.

Next, Li Qing went to the crew union and handed over the provocation money of the dead crew members.

The pension of the officer is 2 million each, and the captain of the frigate is 5 million each.

A frigate had 3 officers, but fortunately there was no captain, and in the end he paid a full 6 million pensions.

“....”

Fortunately, the new ship has just been ordered, and the frigate's salary is not too much, and it can be carried well.

But when the destroyer is launched and the crew is in place, he will have to leave Jinmen early to make money.

After leaving Yu's shipyard, Li Qing first went to the Jinmen No. 3 space residence station to rent an apartment, and then he had to stay in Jinmen for at least half a year, and he couldn't do without a residence.

Open the network of the School of Engineering with a personal terminal, and register a series of shipbuilding-related courses online, both online and offline, including a total of tens of millions of star yuan.

Then, there is an intense course that is as tight as the college entrance examination.

He reported too much, including a series of courses related to shipbuilding, a total of more than thirty, almost every day there are four or five classes, every day in addition to classes is class, crazy to absorb the knowledge of various disciplines, ten times the experience plus a strong innate attribute bonus, so that one class is equivalent to dozens of classes of others, and the speed of skill improvement is very fast.

Li Qing estimated that at this rate of improvement, after all the courses were completed, he would be able to try to build a frigate by himself.

When the time comes, recruit a group of shipbuilding engineers, assisted by a few senior engineers, and almost directly build frigates.

Selling ships is much more profitable than mining, and arms are profitable at any time.

A frigate has 20 million bare ships, even if it only earns 10%, it will have 2 million, but in fact, how can it only earn 10%.

By understanding, the price of a battleship is composed of three aspects.

Drawings account for one percent, materials account for five to sixty percent, if there is no stable material supply channel will account for sixty percent, if there is a stable material supply channel, there is a relationship, you can get the material at a price lower than the market price.

And then normally speaking, the use of shipyards, and the salary of shipbuilding engineers add up to about one and a half percent.

Then there's the channel fee, which is hard to say.

If it is a shipyard direct sales, there is naturally no channel fee, but some businessmen cooperate with the shipyard to get the ship from the shipyard at a low price and then resell it, and the middleman must make some money.

Therefore, if the ship built by a normal shipyard is sold and has a stable supply channel, it can earn between 20% and 30%, and at most it will not exceed 30%.

This proportion is not large, but it is not as expensive as a boat, and 30% of 20 million is 6 million.

Six million for one frigate, six hundred for a hundred frigates.

The construction time of frigates is 60 days, and a large shipyard can build hundreds or even thousands of frigates in a batch, and the income of five or six billion yuan in two months is quite good.

It is worth mentioning that the construction capacity of these large shipyards is hundreds or thousands, and this hundreds and thousands is not the same as the dock in the high-dimensional fortress in Li Qing's hands.

The dock in the high-dimensional fortress in his hand is called a superstructure assembly base to be precise, and it is a dock as a whole, that is, it can build thousands of frigates with a naval capacity of only one block at the same time, and it can also build a Titan superflagship with a naval capacity of more than a thousand tiles.

And the docks of ordinary large shipyards are just ordinary docks combined, which can build thousands of frigate destroyers at the same time, but cannot build flagships that occupy a large capacity of the dock.

To put it bluntly, the 2300 construction capacity in the superstructure assembly base in his hands is a whole.

The thousands of construction capacity in ordinary shipyards are made up of countless only a dozen or dozens of construction capacities, which means that the maximum construction capacity of a single ship is only about 20, and the maximum construction capacity of a battleship with a naval capacity of 20 grids is not possible to build a flagship with a naval capacity of up to a few hundred grids.

Moreover, Li Qing's superstructure assembly base dock has an attribute, that is, the shipbuilding speed is increased by 100%.

This means that the normal construction time of a frigate is 60 days, and this superstructure assembly base can be built in only 30 days, which is a full halving of the time.

And only 1 chief engineer, 2 senior shipbuilding engineers and 30 general engineers are needed to build.

The superstructure assembly base now has a capacity of 2,300 shipyards and theoretically requires 2,300 senior naval architects and 69,000 general engineers to be fully operational.

And this is just to build frigates, if you rebuild destroyers, cruisers, battleships, ordinary engineers can be universal, but a large number of matching senior shipbuilding engineers are needed.

Moreover, the dock that is still intact is only a part of this superstructure assembly base, and its total dock capacity in its intact state exceeds 100 million, and at its peak, it can build up to 100 million frigates per month, which is outrageous to think about.

But considering that the size of this thing has to be measured in astronomical units, and the power furnace is a galaxy like the Milky Way, so it's not outrageous to think about it.
