1188 This renovation plan is crazy
(For Wanwan tyrant Tori, that is, the leader of the alliance - Xiaoding - Dada's update 2\/25)
"With the large-scale use of precision weapons such as missiles, artillery cannons can not only cover and strike on land, but also have low cost, but also have prospects. They basically do not have much power at sea, especially large-caliber artillery. With the advancement of technology and the development of world wars, they will develop towards the visual range. Unless the artillery can carry out accurate shooting of dozens or hundreds of kilometers!" Liu Yijiu explained why the main guns on the above were cancelled and the secondary guns were left. "For the purpose of carrying out support to sea targets or on the opposite shore, the 127mm high-level dual-purpose secondary gun originally equipped on the Iowa battleship is more practical, and even used for air defense, which has good results."
With the development of navies in various countries, anti-ship missiles have also developed faster.
Although the cost is high, it is far higher than the shooting rate of artillery shells. In particular, the outstanding performance of the C801 anti-ship missile on the battlefield has made all countries now begin to desperately develop anti-ship missiles.
The combat mode of the future navy is to fighter jets and missiles.
As a platform for fighter jets, aircraft carriers are naturally the top priority, and the ones that protect aircraft carriers are various missile frigates.
The era of giant ships and cannons was overwhelmed by the emergence of aircraft carriers during World War II.
Therefore, large-caliber artillery basically has no effect, but it still has some effect on some offshore targets and support from the other side. Therefore, the missile frigates and destroyers of various countries have not been completely cancelled.
"Of course, given our logistics supply issues, the caliber needs to be changed to commonly used in China..."
"In addition, I personally suggest that some rapid-fire guns can be considered installed on both sides of the ship's side near the deck, and hide them inside the hull when there is no situation, so as not to occupy the space on the deck. Since the center of gravity is difficult to solve, then, a lightweight widened deck is used to park helicopters. Anti-submarine can be used..." Although there are no suggestions on the theme design, Liu Yijiu has some of his own ideas in the weapon system, and these solutions are designed by the designers of the US military later bored.
Wu Tianhai and others took out the small notebook they carried with them and quickly recorded what Liu Yijiu said.
It’s not that you have to do what Liu Yijiu said, but they know that Liu Yijiu’s suggestions are actually quite important, and every weapon appears with many considerations.
However, Wang Kai and others were also a little confused. If more small-caliber rapid-fire guns were installed, it would add more operators, and it would not be very easy to control them. "Director Liu, will there be too many personnel in this way?"
Liu Yijiu shook his head. This is not a burden. If someone comes to operate, it will not be effective at all. "The rapid-fire cannons on the side of the ship are automatically controlled by computers. We need to form a dense firepower net on both sides of the ship when enemy missiles attack, and shoot down these attacking missiles! It not only requires passive defense, but also active defense."
If the 37mm or 57mm high-level dual-purpose rapid-fire gun used in China is used, the cost will not increase too much, but the defense will be greatly enhanced!
Anyway, this thing is created to scare the world.
It is impossible for China to be equipped too much, and it is even more impossible for it to build more missile battleships of this kind.
After the Russians were dragged down by the US imperialists, the US imperialists' development in the field of warships was also very confused.
Although the aircraft carrier fleet has a huge role, these aircraft carriers are expensive to build and maintain. After all, an aircraft carrier requires many frigates or even submarines to protect.
If missile battleships are equipped with medium-range ballistic anti-ship missiles with a range of thousands of kilometers or even two or three thousand kilometers, these will not be defensive at all. By then, the era of aircraft carriers seems to be over again.
China is the only country in the world that develops medium-range ballistic anti-ship missiles, which makes the US aircraft carrier dare not get too close to China's territorial waters.
"What about the missile system? If we use a large number of intercontinental missiles and can attack land, will we not need to be equipped with ballistic missiles with a closer range? If equipped, the cost will be too expensive." According to what Liu Yijiu said, if the warship center of gravity is to be rebalanced and the number of missiles required is too large.
This is no longer a simple warship, but a mobile arsenal loaded with countless missiles!
"If you want to pretend, you have to pretend not only, but also have to pretend more!" Liu Yijiu said firmly, "No matter how high the cost is, you have to pretend."
"Vertical launch technology..." Missile vertical launch technology is the biggest problem with warships on missiles, especially some large missiles.
China has no experience in this regard.
If the box launch technology is used and various missiles are installed on the surface of the warship, the protection capability will be greatly weakened.
"The vertical launch technology is helped by relevant aerospace units. In addition, we not only need short-range anti-ship missiles, but there is no shortage of this. Our domestic C801 and C802 are competent, so what we need is anti-ship missiles with a longer range, medium- and long-range missiles for land strike targets. At present, we have developed a Dongfeng-21 with a range of 1,800 kilometers, which can be improved and installed inside. At the same time, there is also a missile with a range of 1,800 kilometers and a great development prospect. One or even two of these two missiles can be transformed into missiles with a range of more than 3,000 kilometers..." Liu Yijiu's words made everyone take a breath.
Such missile battleships are far beyond the initial imagination.
All the technicians involved in this project, they don’t even know what to say.
Although the launch of these missiles does not require too high the strength of the warship's hull, such a design makes them have to consider stronger defense capabilities. Once it is finally completed, this warship will become the world's number one!
Super battleship integrating defense and attack.
No matter how advanced an aircraft carrier is, it can only be a target.
After removing various systems, too much space can be left here. If these spaces are filled with various missiles...
"In terms of air defense missiles, short-range air defense uses Houyi and medium-range air defense, which requires continued research and development. There is currently no perfect domestic one, but in the early stage, these modules can be reserved..." Haihongqi 18, Haihongqi 15, etc., have not been made.
If possible, even Liu Yijiu wanted to transform the Hongqi-9.
Iowa's space is large enough!
"In addition, long-range air-to-air early warning radar, anti-ship radar systems, anti-submarine radar systems, etc., must use the most advanced ones. In terms of anti-submarine, we not only need to use anti-submarine torpedoes, but also consider anti-submarine rockets, especially anti-submarine rockets, etc., and need to consider stealth..."
Liu Yijiu's these things have numbed everyone.
Especially as Wu Tianhai, the chief engineer of this modification design, he really did not expect that Liu Yijiu would give them such a huge task this time.
"Director Liu, if this happens, even in twenty years, our battleship renovation project may not be completed..." He had to stop Liu Yijiu from continuing.
They also want to make it stronger, but reality lies in front of them.
Chapter completed!
