When he received the idea to build a heavy-duty cruiser for export, Makarov's mind, is the person above crazy?

Now, the only one that can build such large warships in the Black Sea Shipyard is the No. 0 ship. This ship has added large cranes imported from the Netherlands, improved the structure of the ship, and became the busiest ship to create military orders, two 11435 ships, plus one 11437 ships. The current production task has been scheduled for 88 years before the vacant land next to the ship is able to free up.

It would take place after the 1990s to free up the ship. Moreover, it is necessary to ensure that the military has no continued orders. However, according to Makarov's speculation, the 11437 nuclear-powered heavy-duty aircraft cruiser needed by the Soviet Navy should require about four to meet the needs of the navy.

When there is a military order, we naturally produce the warships needed by the military first. Only after the military's warships are produced can we produce the warships for export. Of course, there are some differences. Therefore, what he and Kusai said in front of us were just conservative estimates, and according to his speculation, it would not be the turn to wait until the mid-1990s.

That's why he felt that the people above were crazy. Don't you know the production capacity of the Black Sea Shipyard? Isn't this fooling Iraq?

Therefore, the person above agreed to the contract without asking for his opinion, but he must explain it clearly to the young man.

Kusai then remembered that in the entire Soviet Union, only the Black Sea Shipyard could build aircraft carriers. In the Black Sea Shipyard, only the No. 0 ship can be built.

Queuing, this is absolutely impossible. Otherwise, my main purpose of coming this time will be a failure.

I have to find a way to solve this problem! At least by the end of this year, the Soviet Union will start construction of the aircraft carrier built for itself!

Kusai also knew that the problem of building aircraft carriers was very technical. Looking at the world, there were only a handful of countries that could build aircraft carriers, far less than that of countries that could build dozens of tons of tankers. Because building aircraft carriers requires a lot of technical problems. Later Ah San, after Russia raised prices several times, bought a modified second-hand aircraft carrier with almost the money that could build new ships. In the end, he felt that he had to build an aircraft carrier by himself, but after calling it for half a year, he didn't say anything.

The first problem in building an aircraft carrier is steel. The aircraft carrier can withstand the nine-level waves at sea and withstand the violent impact of carrier-based aircraft when landing. The requirements for steel are very high, which is higher than the steel required for submarines with a deep submarine. A tanker worth hundreds of thousands of tons can be equipped with oil and sail safely. A aircraft carrier worth tens of thousands of tons needs to be accelerated to thirty knots, and the power problem is also very critical. If a carrier-based aircraft takes off, it must have sufficient speed. Most tankers worth hundreds of thousands of tons can only maintain a speed of less than twenty knots, and ordinary high-power marine diesel engines are enough, but aircraft carriers either use steam turbines or use nuclear power. The later generations of the Charles de Gaulle also used nuclear power, but this power equipment modified from nuclear submarines is insufficient, resulting in the aircraft carrier being able to accelerate to up to 28 knots, increasing the danger of the aircraft taking off.

Various technical problems have discouraged countries that want to build their own aircraft carriers. However, for the Soviet Union, these are not problems. The only problem is the ship platform!

Then, the only solution is to use another one since the ship platform of the aircraft carrier being built by the Soviet Navy cannot rob, then use another one!

"Mr. Captain, the Black Sea Shipyard is a long-standing and prestigious shipyard. In order to withstand the possible attacks of the West on our oil maritime trade line, we must have such a warship as soon as possible. We will not wait until the first steel plate is cut in the first year. We will cut the first steel plate at the end of this year at the latest. We will see the outline of our warship formed in the first year, and in the early 1990s, we will see the ship launching in the water." Kusai said.

"That's impossible, we can't free up the No. 0 ship platform for you to use." Makarov directly rejected the other party's proposal.

"I'm not saying to use No. 0 ship platform, I'm saying to use other ship platforms." Kusai said: "The Black Sea Shipyard once undertaken to build a 100,000-ton tanker. That one uses No. 0 ship platform, right?"

"That was the No. 1 ship platform, but it only built an oil tanker. The tanker and warship are completely different. We cannot measure it by displacement alone." Makarov said.

In fact, the Soviet Union did not need oil tankers, because the Soviet Union's oil was transported directly through oil pipelines. Those tankers were civilian ships made for Western European countries when oil prices were rising.

It’s not that there is no problem in building an aircraft carrier after building an oil tanker. There are many technical problems here. At that time, in order to build an aircraft carrier, the Soviet government allocated several funds to renovate the No. 0 ship platform to have the ability to build it. When building a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, there was a plan to upgrade and transform it.

"So, can the No. 1 ship be improved to have the ability to build a warship like ours?" Kusai asked.

Improving the No. 1 ship? Makarov thought for a moment and replied: "This is possible, but if we need to invest huge funds, our government will not upgrade and renovate the No. 1 ship to build a heavy-duty cruiser for export. When we finish building this ship, we will not be able to use these equipment, which will cause waste."

"We in Iraq are willing to invest and transform the No. 1 ship platform," said Kusai.

Kusai's words made Gorshkov next to him think that this guy from the Middle East is really rich. I heard that he couldn't get a rank and would rather invest in the transformation of a new ship platform by himself. Then, the Soviet Union would have two ship platforms to build aircraft carriers, which would be of great value to the future development of the Soviet Navy.

In the future, it would be very easy for the Soviet Navy to build aircraft carriers in batches.

Thinking of this, Gorshkov looked up and saw Makarov asking for his opinion with his eyes, he immediately nodded in a signal manner.

"If Iraq is willing to invest and renovate the No. 1 ship, we are very welcome." Makarov said: "But even with the ship, we lack enough workers."

Kusai felt that talking to this person he originally admired was always very difficult today. The other party seemed like a debtor. Iraq had to bleed once when modifying the ship platform. Now, the other party said that even if the ship platform was modified, there would not be enough people.

However, it is indeed the case. Although it is time for the Soviet Union to start serious domestic economic problems, it is also the time when the Soviet Navy is the most glorious. Various shipyards are starting to build one military order after another.

Nuclear submarines, cruisers, destroyers, and Soviet shipbuilding institutions were fully utilized. Building aircraft carriers required a large number of workers. Although the Black Sea Shipyard was the largest shipyard and although the entire city of Nikolayev rose by relying on shipyards, it still showed the embarrassment of insufficient manpower.

However, isn’t this even more giving Iraq a chance? Iraq originally did not have shipbuilding workers, but now there are a large number of mature workers! Iraq’s shipyards are now not only in building Iraq’s own missile boats, but also in civilian ships.

"If your shipbuilding is insufficient, Iraq can transfer the best workers in our shipyard to the Black Sea shipyard," said Kusai.

Iraq wants to send workers on its own? Hearing this, Gorbachev frowned. After all, this is the most important naval warship manufacturing base in the Soviet Union. When the Iraqis come, will it lead to leaks?

"Because our project is carried out in secret, if we need our workers, please set up a restricted area for them to only carry out construction on aircraft carriers made for us in Iraq. It is prohibited to move around shipyards, so as not to be discovered by Western countries, especially the United States, and they also need to wear uniforms of a unified Black Sea shipyard, and people from contacting them from outsiders," said Kusai.

When he heard Kusai say this, Gorbachev already knew what Kusai means. He said this to dispel the concerns of the Soviet personnel. Iraq sent personnel to come here because it was eager to obtain the aircraft carrier, but there were not enough workers in the Black Sea Shipyard, so he came up with this plan. In order to avoid their suspicion, the Iraqi personnel were restricted from moving. They came to build Iraq's own aircraft carriers according to the command of the Black Sea Shipyard staff. In this way, it seemed to be impeccable. This would not constitute a leak. Anyway, if it was built, it would be for Iraq.

Kusai knew that this was a very good opportunity to allow Iraqi shipbuilders to be exposed to the most advanced Soviet shipbuilding technology. Although they could already build missile boats in Iraq, they needed first-class technology to build aircraft carriers. When they arrived here, they would definitely have to be trained by the technicians of the Black Sea Shipyard. This was equivalent to the Black Sea Shipyard training workers who could build aircraft carriers for Iraq for free. Even if Iraq brought all the workers in the construction of missile boats, even if it was to completely shut down their own shipyards first, it would be worth it.

Of course, the Black Sea Shipyard will not completely let Iraq out, they will also find some of them.

"We need to submit this plan to the General Secretary for approval," Gorbachev said, "However, my personal opinion is agreed."

If the Soviet Union disagrees, then Iraq will definitely not invest, and the second ship that can build an aircraft carrier will not be transformed. (To be continued)
