Yamamoto Iroku, as the Technical Director of the Naval Aviation Department, was responsible for the appropriateness of naval equipment. When he learned that the son-in-law of the Krupp family was behind Major Cialis, who represented the German government, came, he immediately asked for instructions to greet him in person!

The tatami kneeling and the geisha with lipstick on her mouth, all the island-style greetings made Cirick very uncomfortable.

"Xijun, welcome to the island country very much." Yamamoto Iroku can speak German! Although he is not fluent and has a unique accent, it is the most difficult for the islanders to learn a foreign language because their tongues are straight, but this still deepens the favorable feelings of the whole group.

“We came with sincerity to cooperate with each other,” Cialick said. “What do you think we can get what we need and develop together?”

"I wonder what aspect you plan to cooperate?" Yamamoto Izuru asked.

"We mainly intend to cooperate in industrial technology," said Cialek. "For example, we know your industrial needs, so we intend to export 50,000-ton hydraulic presses and the latest high-power marine steam turbines to you."

A 50,000-ton hydraulic press! This alone is what the island country needs most at present!

What is the function of a hydraulic press? Making components of various shapes, forging metals, etc., requires a hydraulic press, and the pressure of a hydraulic press is an important indicator to measure a country's industrial level!

If there is a 50,000-ton hydraulic press, it can greatly improve the industrial level of the island country, especially to start construction of the latest warships for them to provide the most secure guarantee!

As for the latest marine steam turbines, it can’t wait!

During World War I, German warships were built in large quantities and accumulated rich experience, especially the research on marine power systems, which was at the world's advanced level!

In fact, the two items mentioned by Cialek were originally projects that have been carried out in history. It can be said that it was precisely because of the output of these two items that the island country's Yamato-class battleship plan was successfully carried out.

This is a huge warship with a full load displacement of up to 70,000 tons! It is also a huge test for the island country. Although the island country also has the experience of manufacturing large warships and has also made 410 mm heavy artillery, now, it is expected that the caliber of such a larger warship will reach 460 mm, which is also a big problem.

Now, the help provided by Germany is quite timely!

"So, what do you want?" Yamamoto Iroku asked happily.

"The technology of the USS Akagi aircraft carrier," said Cialek. "This is what we most hope to get."

Aircraft Carrier! During World War II, many classic battles occurred, such as the sinking of the battleship of the USS Hood, which is a classic battle against bombing. In the Western Pacific, a large number of duels between aircraft carriers occurred.

Speaking of aircraft carriers, apart from the United States, I am afraid that the islanders are the most experienced. It is a fantasy for Germany to obtain technology from the United States, so it can only be obtained from the island countries!

The Akagi was not an aircraft carrier from the beginning. It was originally a Tiancheng-class battlecruiser and planned to build four. Due to the signing of the Washington Naval Treaty, the No. 1 Tiancheng-2 Akagi was converted into an aircraft carrier, and the No. 3 Kaohsiung-4 Atago was demolished.

Later, due to the 1923 Kanto earthquake in Japan, the hull of the No. 1 Ship, Tiancheng, was completely damaged, so only one ship of the Akagi was built, so it can also be called the Akagi class.

This is a large aircraft carrier with a full load displacement of 40,000 tons and a 260-meter-long flight deck! Although it was transformed in the middle, it is of great reference value for Germany to build its own aircraft carrier!

The exchange of interests between the two sides must be equivalent. Now, what Germany needs is also the core technology of the island country!

"If you need it, we can also transfer our high-power marine diesel engine technology to you." Seeing that the other party was still hesitating, Cialik added another condition.

Marine diesel engine! During World War I, marine diesel engine technology has been greatly developed. One of the most suitable places to use is of course submarines!

If you are equipped with gasoline engines in a confined space of a submarine, hesitation that gasoline is likely to evaporate, which may cause catastrophic consequences. In terms of diesel engines used for submarines, Germany's technology is definitely the latest. In the later stages of World War I, all German submarines were diesel engines!

Add this technology! Let’s see if the Japanese exchange or not!

The first day of reception was soon over. Of course, Yamamoto Iroku could not make the decision by himself. He needed to ask his superiors for instructions, but Cialek knew that they had absolutely no reason to refuse!

Historically, the islanders could give all the Akagi technology to Germany. Now, it is still possible. After all, both sides have common interests and both sides have common enemies!

Sure enough, after staying in the island country for one night, Cialique was kindly invited to the port outside Tokyo the next day.

The islanders are still very real. Since they have decided to use all the technologies of the Akagiroshi, they simply invite Cialis and others to step onto the Akagiroshi!

Now, the island countries are constantly exploring the form of aircraft carriers. After all, aircraft carriers are still new things.

For example, now, there are two-layer hangars below the Akagi. At the same time, there are three flight decks in a stepped shape and divided into three floors.

The upper floor is a dual-purpose deck with a total length of 190 meters and a width of 30.5 meters. The middle and lower floors are connected to the double-layer hangar and can be used for aircraft to take off directly from the hangar. The middle floor deck is for small aircraft to take off, about 15 meters long, and the lower deck is longer for large aircraft to take off, with a length of 56.7 meters and a width of 23 meters.

This is completely different from the configuration of the upper layer of later generations, where the upper layer is full of hangars.

At the same time, this guy also has his own firepower!

10 200mm caliber artillery are installed on the deck in front of the bridge and on both sides of the rear of the hull to strike surface targets such as cruisers.

It can be said that it is almost a combination of cruisers and aircraft carriers.

nondescript.

Later Germany adopted this solution, and the Zeppelin aircraft carrier built was simply a heavy-duty cruiser! Yes, the Kiev-class later in the Soviets can find companions here.

Although this warship has many problems, it is still one of the most advanced aircraft carriers of this era!

Cialek knew the layout of aircraft carriers in later generations, but it was impossible to build a real aircraft carrier just by knowing one thing. The design drawings of an aircraft carrier require at least a few cars to transport, which is a big project.
Chapter completed!
