The gantry crane can be 500 tons heavy. Because the first section of the aircraft carrier keel is the most important part in the middle, it has a relatively large length and a relatively complex structure, so the weight is naturally much heavier.

But there are less than 300 tons.

There will be no problem with the 500-ton gantry crane transporting this thing.

But the steel cable on the hook gives people the feeling that it is about to be broken at any time, and the people watching the scene only mutter in their hearts.

"It is impossible to make any mistakes in front of foreigners. If that happens, it will be troublesome..." Xie Kai was really incredible.

If something goes wrong with the Hong Kong machine, this project will definitely be ruined.

"What's going on?" Even Zheng Yucheng was anxious.

"What's going on?" Li Qingmin asked Zheng Yucheng.

Zheng Yucheng pointed to the trembling steel cable, "Nothing will happen?"

"Director Zheng, don't worry, this thing weighs hundreds of tons, and it was like this when it was first hung. As long as it was lifted, the movement was not too big and the wind was not too big, there would be no problem." Li Qingmin looked at Zheng Yucheng and the others with a rare and strange expression.

Under the command of the on-site command, the people on the gantry crane operation table performed the task meticulously.

There was no 500-ton gantry crane before, but it was not a problem for parts with tonnage such as this.

But at the beginning, the sound of firecrackers made the operators who were dozens of meters above the ground unable to hear the command command from the walkie-talkie. They moved a little faster, and the reaction of the steel cable made the operators sweat coldly on their foreheads.

The heavy and huge keel structural parts finally broke away from the ground, and the sound of firecrackers next to them had stopped. The steel cables on the hook no longer felt like they were about to break at any time before.

The first section of the keel reached a fixed position on the boat platform while Xie Kai and others were holding their hearts.

The second section also quickly hung down, and the welding workers waiting next to them began to prepare for closing and closing before welding...

"Commander Liu's mood has always been not high." Zheng Yucheng was secretly looking at the expressions of Commander Liu and others.

Before Xie Kai wanted to bomb the navy's treasures, Zheng Yucheng saw their feelings for the Anshan ship with his own eyes.

"The country has the ability to build an aircraft carrier, but the aircraft carrier is not used for its own naval service. Will you feel comfortable if you replace it with it?" Xie Kai sighed, and a sentence made Li Qingmin and others next to him speechless.

Xie Kai ignored them and walked towards Commander Liu.

"Commander, they still have a shipboard empty. Otherwise, let's grit our teeth and squeeze out some funds and build one?" Zheng Ming really hopes that the Navy can own an aircraft carrier.

He was busy and helped Hudong Shipyard solve various problems with supporting units. If it weren't for the Navy to own an aircraft carrier, would it be to help Hudong Shipyard sell aircraft carriers?

Commander Liu glanced at him, "Where did you squeeze? An aircraft carrier costs more than one billion, and that must be more than ten frigates. Will you do the pre-research work of 10,000-ton large-scale drive? Is there any upgrade to the supporting units?"

Zheng Ming originally wanted to ask 404 to subsidize it, but he didn't say it until he said it, so Xie Kai squeezed over.

"Commander, our navy will have a larger aircraft carrier in the future, and this is just for practicing." Xie Kai didn't know how to comfort the old man.

The old man, who is called the father of Chinese aircraft carriers, may not necessarily understand the feelings for aircraft carriers in his heart, but Xie Kai must have understood it.

Especially when he deeply understood what the industrial foundation of China was in this era.

The aircraft carrier captain squad has started in 1987 and has completed two years of study. The second session will be opened this year. The reason is that it is to help Thailand train pilot captains.

Why do we have to be a pilot to be a carrier captain? Perhaps this is because of international practice.

"There will definitely be." Commander Liu said firmly, looking at the two broken keels that were closing on the boat platform.

"Commander, Saudi Navy's target shooting..." Xie Kai spoke even though he knew it would make the old man very upset.

He proposed to use the Anshan class as a target ship.

Except for the Anshan class, there is no frigate or destroyer of such tonnage in China.

"Look! You must see." Commander Liu's words were almost squeezed out from his teeth. After saying that, he felt that Xie Kai looked wrong. He scared him and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't have any psychological burden. Originally, Anshan class was about to be sold to the shipyard to dismantle it into scrap iron. These four Anshan class ships were too important to our navy and had never participated in actual combat. Not to mention getting shells, or even machine gun bullets..."

"The salvage team is also ready. The salvage team that salvages the Awa Maru at that time." Xie Kai said softly, "The technical team needs to study and evaluate. At that time, the 102 ship can be repaired and sent to the Naval Museum..."

It is necessary to take a look at the damage assessment.

The Chinese Navy has never fought such a warship.

Although it was fired by the Saudi Navy, it used warships purchased from China and anti-ship missiles purchased from China.

"Will the cost be too high?" Commander Liu didn't expect Xie Kai to say this, "The 102 ship is too old and the overhaul cost is too high to be retired."

The four Anshan-class ships were the foundation of the Chinese Navy, and their importance to the navy was self-evident.

The North Sea Fleet has applied for many times to modernize and overhaul four Anshan-class destroyers that had undergone a small number of modern modifications almost twenty years ago. The Navy's technical department has evaluated that if it is to undergo overhaul and modern transformation, the entire warship must be greatly modified in terms of power systems and structures, and all weapon systems need to be replaced, which is higher than the new 053h2 with a similar displacement.

More importantly, after the transformation, the service period will not be increased for too long!

In normal times, Anshan level is parked in the military port most of the time.

"If you want to repair it to the point where you can fight, there is no need to repair it. But it is only for people to visit, the appearance has not changed, and the cost will not be too high." Xie Kai said.

Originally, I wanted to salvage it, but after salvage, I sold it to the shipyard to remove the scrap iron and return it to the furnace.

But the historical role of this warship is too important. Zheng Yucheng proposed it before, and Xie Kai felt that it would not cost much money.

Tickets will be collected back then.

"Xie Kai, if all four Saudi warships fired anti-ship missiles, can they be repaired?" Zheng Ming's words stunned Xie Kai.

He really never thought about this.

According to Saudi Arabia's target shooting plan, the four 053h3s will perform search and other tasks at the beginning, and then use naval guns to attack the target ship's superstructure at a distance of about 15 kilometers. After the attack is completed, the helicopter in the sky will record all the attacks and use them to evaluate the attack results. The second round is anti-ship missiles...

Xie Kai never thought that all four warships of Saudi Arabia would launch anti-ship missiles.

But when you think of the style of a big dog, it is entirely possible.

The target ship gave tens of millions and launched 4 C-801 anti-ship missiles, which was not impossible.

The hope in Commander Liu's eyes flashed.

"It depends on the situation at that time." Xie Kai couldn't guarantee.

A flying fish made the Sheffield-class missile destroyer buried under the sea. The 102 ship was seriously aging. Can the small body with insufficient structural strength withstand the destruction of the C-801 anti-ship missile?

On the other hand, the Saudi Navy is not interested in laying keels on aircraft carriers built by China.

There is no need for them to own aircraft carriers.

All the naval officers and soldiers were resting and preparing for tomorrow's target shooting.

"You want to shoot a target together, too?" Rafata looked at the young Bahrain naval commander Colonel Kamal, with an incredible look on his face.

Kamal looked at Rafata and nodded seriously, "Yes, General. We usually train together and may also command the mission in the future..."

Peninsula defense forces still exist.

Saudi Arabia bought warships because as a police officer, both fighter jets and warships were too weak. Now it has bought a batch of F-16s from the United States to enrich the air force.

"The Chinese only provide one target ship..." Lafata frowned, "Maybe that target ship can't withstand the shooting of the naval guns at all."

There is no remote control, no automatic avoidance, just a dead target.

The only thing that can test the navy is that they will perform search tasks before shooting. At that time, there were still people operating the target ships provided by the Chinese.

"His Highness Emil said we can bear $4 million in fees. We are also a member of the Peninsula Defense Force..."

"I'll ask the country." Lafata did not directly object.

While Saudi Arabia was communicating with the Bahrain naval commander, the shipyard leaders led the Thais and Argentines to the docks of six 053h3 ships from both countries in the Middle East.

On the small dock, there were six 053h3 warships crowded.

It is even more crowded than the dock outside the North Sea Fleet Command.

The six H3s are all luxury versions. The main gun uses a 79 dual-mounted automatic naval gun. On the secondary turret behind the main gun, the two ammunition system is much more advanced than the two dual-mounted 37mm secondary guns of the original H2.

On both sides of the chimney are two rows of quad-mounted missile launchers that are inclined in each case.

4 C-801 anti-ship missiles, 4 ground-red flag-1 ground-attack missiles.

There are 8 missile launchers, anti-ship missiles and ground-to-ground missiles.

Before the ships were glaring on the dock, these crowded warships gave people a strong sense of oppression.

"These warships should have been parked at the navy's military port. Saudi Arabia and Bahrain thought the facilities there were not good, and the technicians needed to help them maintain..." Li Qingmin introduced.

The installation of these warships was not completed for a long time, and the sea trial had just ended shortly.

"Gentlemen, you can board the ship and visit now. Tomorrow morning, these warships will shoot targets, so that everyone can see their actual combat capabilities..." Li Qingmin and the others were unwilling to do this, so Xie Kai had to say this in front of a group of naval bosses.

Except Commander Liu and Zheng Ming, other naval bosses looked at Xie Kai with murderous aura.

"Don't worry, everyone, they promised that the target will be salvaged after the shooting, and will be repaired at that time, and used for exhibition..." Zheng Ming felt that this could help Xie Kai.
Chapter completed!
