Chapter 1638: Construction of the Aircraft Carrier

What happened a year later has not happened yet, and the Red Army is still looking at the Blue Army with "old eyes and old thinking". The base does not need to be fooled by the m1a3 equipped with a fifty-five-caliber artillery, using a revolutionary armor module, and having epoch-making fire control equipment.

Just don't fool 'm1a3', but there are still other things that need to be busy. For example, since the central elders became addicted to "picking up trash", they began to prepare for picking up a kind of "big trash". That's an aircraft carrier, not a ship.

We once said that the death of Mao Xiong was due to his militarism. At the peak, 70% of the national economy was military industry. But after Mao Xiong died, he looked back at Ying Jiang, which was also a representative of extreme belligerence.

Assuming that the United States is excluded, all the naval forces in the world are tied together, can they defeat the navy of the Javelin? Hmm... Maybe they can survive for a few days under a dozen or so aircraft carrier formations of the Bandit Eagle. Anyway, they can't have too high expectations.

And if the rabbit wants to maintain its growing overseas interests, an ocean-going fleet centered on an aircraft carrier is essential. It's just that the more advanced the weapon, the more complex and expensive it is, and the slower it is to build.

Rabbit built his first medium-sized aircraft carrier. It took nearly four years from cutting the first steel plate to launching it. This speed has shocked the world. You must know that as a veteran, Ying Jiang built the 100,000-ton 'Ford'-class heavy-duty aircraft carrier, but it took eight years to launch it.

Zhou Qingfeng currently provides too many cutting-edge technological materials, but it is impossible to digest them in less than ten years. And if the rabbit wants to build an aircraft carrier similar to the "Ford" class, it is not enough to just have a blueprint, because the military industry is not building blocks.

So... just picking up a few pieces of 'garbage' and 'launching' directly can save a lot of time. However, unlike nuclear submarines, the construction of the aircraft carrier is too noisy, and it is impossible to hide it. So certain preliminary work must be done as soon as possible, such as...  

First build a simulated hull on land, which means that we are currently researching the corresponding ship type. As for the sudden addition of an aircraft carrier when we secretly built it, that can only mean that our research and construction progress is very fast.

"Whether you believe it or not, I don't believe it anyway." The bureau seat was standing on a newly built aircraft carrier model at the moment. This one-to-one "cement aircraft carrier" was specially built by a ship research institute to test the electromagnetic compatibility of warships, and it is the wind vane for the development of rabbit surface ships.

As soon as this model appeared, the domestic "Wall Climbing Party" immediately took photos and uploaded them to the Internet, and shouted loudly, "Oh, what the hell is this rabbit doing?" Isn't this fucking copying 'Nimitz'? '

The hull is more than 300 meters long, the angled deck is more than 70 meters wide, four catapults, and a displacement of 100,000 tons. This is the giant sea monster 'Nimitz'!

Don't look at the old US is eliminating the 'Nimitz' class aircraft carrier for the 'Ford' class.

In fact, except for Eagle Sauce, the aircraft carriers of other countries are not even as good as 'Nimitz', even the 'Kitty Hawk' class and 'Enterprise' class before 'Nimitz'.

Uncle Zhou only has the best 'Ford' class 'Kennedy' in his hand. Although he doesn't use it very well, he is definitely not willing to hand it over. The ones he can get in exchange for money and supplies are naturally the 'Nimitz' class.

China decided to 'study' the 'Nimitz' class... so the bureau seat stood on a model of the hull imitating the 'Nimitz' class. It's so simple to make a model with cement and steel frames. It won't take long. Just get one.

In order to promote the big guy that he is about to acquire, ccav's Geng Zhan channel specially made a program for this purpose, introducing the progress of Rabbit's latest aircraft carrier research. As the number one fool, no... the number one military expert will give an in-depth interpretation in the program.

"How do you want me to interpret it?" The boss has gray hair and is getting old. It's not easy to be pulled out to deceive people after finally retiring. "The development of science and technology must be carried out step by step. Our 60,000-ton tank has only just been launched and has not entered service. It is unscientific to start building a 100,000-ton tank directly!"

The director spread his hands and stomped his feet on the deck of the "cement aircraft carrier", but the director who filmed the show shouted softly behind the camera: "Director, I'm sorry, we don't talk about science now, we only talk about fooling around. Let's start filming."

When encountering such a mess, you can only bite the bullet and do it.

The bureau chief tried hard to maintain a smiling face, and said to the camera: "Before I came to this aircraft carrier test platform, I couldn't believe that the country would directly develop heavy aircraft carriers. But when I got here, I found that I underestimated the strength of our military personnel." Confidence and ability.

The appearance of our aircraft carrier is very similar to Yingjiang's 'Nimitz' class. As for why it is so similar, it can only be said that all roads lead to the same goal. To build a heavy aircraft carrier with our current technology, we must learn from the successful experience of Yingjiang, and it is understandable that some places are the same. "

Hehehe..., you all understand, but I can't understand the awkwardness of the seat's smile!

When this episode of the program was broadcast, the sensation caused by it can be imagined. Some people criticize that since it is necessary to copy, why not just copy the 'Ford' grade? Some people criticize why steam catapults are still used? Someone scolded the rabbit for plagiarism, without any innovative ability.

In short, the keyboard man can always find the angle of spraying.

But another group of unknown military personnel are working very seriously. Just near this shipbuilding research institute located in the Yangtze River Basin, a heavily guarded and covered huge dry dock shed is parked. It's a tattered steel behemoth.

The seventh ship of the "Nimitz" class aircraft carrier "Stennis".

Unknown what happened to the aircraft carrier during the Cataclysm, a massive explosion occurred on its flight deck. The explosion completely changed the front half of the aircraft carrier, and a large number of facilities including two catapults were destroyed. The fire caused by the explosion also burned through several decks and cabins.

No one wanted this jet-black 100,000-ton junk in the wasteland, so Zhou Qingfeng easily transported it to the real world. Thousands of technical workers and researchers who have passed numerous political tests have been wandering around it for a month in the secret workshop.

The preliminary cleaning of the hull has been completed this month. After a rigorous assessment, a group of aircraft carrier design and construction personnel found that this dilapidated steel behemoth is still repairable.

"After all, a big guy with 100,000 tons, it is shameful to waste it."

"The bottom and rear compartments are intact and the powertrain is functioning properly."

"We just happened to use it for a modification, for our electromagnetic catapult."

"Anyway, it is waste utilization. We can use it to verify many of our ideas and conduct drastic experiments."

"It only takes us more than three years to build a new one. Work overtime and work hard. It will take at most a year and a half to repair this thing. By then, we will have an extra aircraft carrier out of thin air."

"I just don't know where this broken ship came from? It feels like a pie fell from the sky."

"Hahaha..., never mind, it's better that we don't know!"
