Chapter 174: Jiang Chen's position is promoted again! Supercarrier construction begins!
Suddenly.
Listening to this sentence, the whole scene was like a dead silence.
As if he was so shocked that he couldn't speak, he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Especially looking at Jiang Chen's understatement, it made everyone's hearts tremble.
"Chief Engineer Jiang, you didn't say anything wrong just now, right??"
"This is not a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, not a freighter!"
"100,000 tons is already big enough, and you want to directly build more than 150,000 tons of aircraft carriers?"
The captains of the navy were not calm for a moment, and hurriedly asked.
They all began to wonder if their ears had heard it wrong.
This is not a cargo ship, which can easily have a displacement of two or three hundred thousand tons, this is an aircraft carrier!
You must know that the world's largest aircraft carrier, the Ford-class aircraft carrier, has a displacement tonnage of just over 110,000 tons.
That's almost a whole two levels!
Even Dean Lin, who was standing on the side, was now dumbfounded!
Good guys, what kind of aircraft carrier is this that surpasses the Ford-class! This is all about building a Jumbo-class aircraft carrier?
Listen to these questions.
"I didn't say that wrong, and you didn't hear it wrong."
"The aircraft carrier I will build next is indeed 150,000 tons"
"And yes, it is expected that the minimum displacement will be 150,000 tons"
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face and a flat face.
With the output of a small nuclear power unit, only two engines are required.
It drives a ship with a displacement of 150,000 tons, and there is no pressure at all.
His voice had just fallen.
Suddenly.
"How big is an aircraft carrier with such a terrifying displacement?"
"I feel like it's four hundred meters long, right?? Our aircraft carriers 003 are all 320 meters long. ”
"I also think it's about the same as the width and height will get bigger!"
"Hiss 150,000 tons of displacement, what scale does this have?"
When Captain Du and the others thought of this, they immediately gasped!
The 150,000-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is a steel behemoth that they can hardly imagine.
After all, even the conventionally powered No. 003 aircraft carrier under development has a tonnage of just over 80,000 tons
The 001 and 002 domestic aircraft carriers are only 60,000 tons.
"With this displacement."
"It should be a lot longer than a Ford-class aircraft carrier." Jiang Chen thought for a moment and nodded.
After all, the length of the Ford class is close to 340 meters, and this aircraft carrier is likely to reach 350-360 meters!
As for the longer words, it doesn't make much sense.
It is not that the aircraft carrier will be widened and heightened, so that the increase in the capacity of the carrier-based aircraft will be more valuable.
At this time.
"Chief Engineer Jiang uses our existing special steel."
"I'm afraid it's hard to meet such a huge strength requirement. Both in length, and in tonnage. ”
"None of them can satisfy this behemoth"
An academician of the Materials Engineering Academy next to him said with a frown.
With the special steel used to build the project 003 aircraft carrier, it is simply not enough to support the displacement of 150,000 tons.
With such a large weight, it is easy to undergo structural changes.
Then he continued:
"Unless we use new ultra-high-strength alloys. to be able to meet performance requirements. ”
"It's just in terms of current production"
The academician did not continue, his tone was extremely lonely!
Listen to this passage.
"That's right."
"There is no way to meet the demand for general special steel."
Everyone nodded gloomily and agreed with him.
This is the biggest problem encountered so far!
As for the use of new alloy materials to create aircraft carriers? It's impossible to think about!
After all, although it has been produced at full power, the two new alloy materials are barely enough for the construction of aero engines.
Even in the aerospace sector, this ultra-high-strength and ultra-high-temperature resistant alloy is needed.
It can be said that every gram of material is precious!
Use this thing to build an aircraft carrier? Even the deck of an aircraft carrier weighs tens of thousands of tons, how is this possible
Even if you don't talk about how expensive it is, you can't afford to build it.
That's enough to build tens of thousands of aero engines, and the total annual output is probably not a few thousand tons.
"It's not too much of a problem."
"I can develop a special steel that is more cost-effective and malleable!"
"And the production is still very high, and it should not be a problem to create a 150,000-ton nuclear-powered aircraft carrier!"
Jiang Chen touched his chin and said without hesitation.
In the technical path of the Gundam: First Generation, there is a low-grade material that can meet the requirements.
Although it is not as good as the new alloys he developed before, it is still much better than conventional special steel.
What's more critical is that it is very difficult to manufacture, and it can be built by major domestic steel mills.
Time.
"Great, great!"
"So we're going to have a 150,000-ton aircraft carrier right away."
"Lao Du, don't rob this nuclear-powered aircraft carrier with our troops!"
All the captains present seemed to be unable to suppress their emotions.
Why can Yingyi dominate the world? More than 50% of them are because of those eleven nuclear-powered aircraft carriers!
Now.
Not only do they have to have a real nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, but they also want to kill Ford-class aircraft carriers in seconds!
How this does not excite this group of people who have been looking forward to it for decades!
Time passed, two days later, in the afternoon.
A meeting is taking place within the Academy of Sciences.
Now.
There are hundreds of people in the conference room, and all the academicians of the Academy of Sciences in Yanjing have already attended.
The whole scene was so quiet that even the sound of breathing was clearly visible.
Lin Congli stared at everyone and slowly opened his mouth to announce:
"This time, there are two important announcements to make!"
"First of all... That's the first theme! ”
"On Jiang Chen's promotion!"
His eyes looked at Jiang Chen, and he said solemnly.
Time.
The brows of hundreds of academicians were furrowed, all speculating.
Could it be that Chief Engineer Jiang is going to be promoted? ? Or even transfer out of the Academy of Sciences!
Thinking of this, all of them were shocked and a little uneasy in their hearts.
It seems that their anomaly was also discovered.
"Jiang Chen will continue to serve as the head of the Frontier Science and Technology Research Institute!" Lin Congli then explained.
Hear this.
Lu Yuanhang, Zhao Xiu and the others wiped the beads of sweat from their brows, and finally let go of their hearts.
is still the head of the institute, not just transfer out of the Academy of Sciences!
If there is no Chief Engineer Jiang, then their project will still be a fart!
Before they could react.
"In addition to that, he will also hold an additional position."
"A special position!"
Dean Lin said slowly.
The audience breathed!
PS: Ask for recommended tickets, monthly passes!! It's the end of the month, and some can give one!
