Chapter 819: Chapter 819: Battleship Garbage

After the two chatted for a while, Aslan took Duke Medea to the reception hall to meet Frankie.

Accompanying Franky was Tres, the embassy's chief military officer.

Tres couldn't move his eyes when he saw the Duke of Medea for the first time, and he reacted suddenly after being pushed by Frankie, and quickly lowered his head.

Aslan was dissatisfied and said, "Is this the quality of your country?"

"Sorry! Your Majesty, we were the ones to be rude this time. The Duke of Medea is so beautiful that any normal man would be amazed. Please forgive me." Frankie bowed quickly and said.

Aslan snorted coldly, because Duke Medea beside him was giggling.

"The original good mood was ruined by you, so don't be polite, just take out the things!" Aslan said angrily.

This is the advantage of being an emperor, and the emperor of a powerful country can speak and do things at will.

Facing Aslan's character, Franky has long been used to it.

Smiling and nodding, he took out the documents in the briefcase, and the maid next to Aslan immediately took them and brought them to Aslan.

Aslan took the document and looked at it.

The first page introduces a 100,000-ton bulk cargo ship, which mainly transports grain, coal, ore, salt, cement and other bulk dry bulk cargo in bulk, and can be called a dry bulk carrier.

Because the dry bulk carrier has a single type of cargo, it does not need to be packed into bundles, bags, or boxes for loading and transportation, and it is not afraid of extrusion and is easy to load and unload, so they are all single-deck ships. If the total load capacity is more than 50,000 tons, generally no lifting equipment is installed.

Since the stowage factors of grain, coal and ore vary greatly, the required cargo hold volume, hull structure, arrangement and equipment are different in many aspects.

Therefore, it is generally customary to call ships with similar stowage factors such as grain and coal as bulk carriers, and ships with ore and other cargoes with smaller stowage factors to be called ore carriers. Ships used for grain, coal, ore and other bulk cargoes are usually divided into the following classes.

The total load DW is more than 100,000 tons, which is called the Capesize ship. The total load DW is 60,000 tons, usually called Panamax. This is the largest ship type allowed in the Panama Canal. The length of the ship should be less than 245 meters, the width of the ship should not be greater than 32.2 meters, and the maximum allowable draft is 12.04 meters. The total deadweight DW is 35,000 tons - 40,000 tons, which is called a handy bulk carrier. The draft is relatively shallow, and basically all ports in the world can call.

The total load DW is 20,000 tons to 27,000 tons, which is called a small bulk carrier. The largest ship that can sail on the five lakes of the Holy Bretta Empire.

The maximum length of the ship shall not exceed 222.5 meters, the maximum width of the ship shall be less than 23.1 meters, and the maximum draft shall be less than 7.925 meters. For ships used to transport ore, the greater the load capacity, the lower the transportation cost. The minimum total load capacity of ore ships is 57,000 tons; the largest is 260,000 tons;

The 100,000-ton bulk ship in front of him mainly transports grain, but there are also many other types of cargo ships in it, which makes Aslan very satisfied. With his current strength, a cargo ship with more than 100,000 tons is still too difficult to chew. The key is that his naval fleet has just been established, and there is no way to send the navy to survey the sea area.

If the draft is too large, it will be troublesome if you encounter shoal tentacles. For safety reasons, in the current situation, it is safest to use a freighter of about 50,000 tons, but this kind of 100,000-ton freighter is also needed, as long as long-distance transportation is fine. It is the most suitable way to travel between Wolan Island and Weihai Port.

Aslan ordered three 100,000-ton cargo ships, namely a grain bulk carrier and an iron ore bulk carrier.

Turning to the second page is the 50,000-ton freighter that Aslan needs. This makes Aslan more comfortable, and he chooses two of each model.

The last ten or so pages were all about battleships, but after reading the data on the first page, the corner of Aslan's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

The Xueyuan-class destroyer is the destroyer of the Holy Bretta Empire Navy. It is the main battleship used by the Holy Bretta Empire in World War III. It has been more than 50 years since it was finalized and produced, and it has been decommissioned as early as 20 years ago. up.

The standard displacement is 2,000 tons, the full load displacement is 2,490 tons, the captain is 118.49 meters long, the molded width is 10.82 meters, and the draft is 3.76 meters.

The crew consists of 228 people, the power unit has four oil-fired boilers, the output power of the main engine is 52,000 horsepower, and the two-shaft propulsion.

The maximum speed is 35 knots, the endurance is 5000 nautical miles, and the maximum range is about 6000 nautical miles.

Weapons and equipment are 50 times the caliber 127mmC double-mounted guns 3, single-barreled 25mm anti-aircraft guns 8

Type 92 has 4 610mm torpedo tubes with 2 sets, and the stern is equipped with mine-laying and mine-sweeping equipment.

It's just that the radar system, communication system and sonar system above have all been dismantled.

"What's the price?" Aslan asked, not caring about it.

"If your country takes it away on its own, just give me five million new Merlot coins. We still have twelve ships." Franky said very generously.

The corners of Aslan's mouth curled up slightly when he heard this, and he instantly understood what the Holy Bretta Empire was planning.

The methods of dealing with decommissioned warships in Blue Star countries can be described as strange, some are commendable, and some are incomparably weird. Like the Gonza country, many of their decommissioned warships are returned to the original port for storage, and can be reused in wartime with a little modification. However, the maintenance costs brought about by this method are too high, and not every country can use it.

The Economic Union is amazing. They once dismantled an aircraft carrier with a displacement of more than 50,000 tons and recycled its steel for reuse. There are also those like the Erez Empire, whose economy is too poor to afford maintenance costs, and have no time to guess, so they park decommissioned warships in the port to withstand the wind and rain, and let the years corrode them.

The Holy Bretta Empire uses a relatively scientific and reasonable method to make the best use of everything. Part of the retired warships will be used as an open education base, allowing Chinese people to understand the development of the country's military weapons and feel their charm. Some warships with little recycling value will be disassembled and used for the construction of new warships, and even some The overall strength of the retired warships is still good, so they will be simply upgraded and refitted and sold to other countries.

The Xueyuan-class destroyer in front of me is probably the kind of warship that is ready to be dismantled and recycled. The reason why it is sold so cheaply is that the cost of dismantling is too high. If one is dismantled, even if the steel is recycled, it will cost a few million dollars. Normally, unless it takes up too much space, most of the time it will be destroyed by new weapons as targets.

The Holy Bretta Empire used to equip more than a hundred Xueyuan-class destroyers. Now these twelve ships should be left over from the bombing. The warships decommissioned 20 years ago should not have any special steel and equipment worth recycling.

"I've been paying attention to the situation of Blue Star, and I just heard about this warship. I'm helping your country deal with garbage!" Aslan said with self-deprecation.
