The Varyag is the most important thing in Xie Kai's plan.

Whether all the equipment will still be removed as history will be like this, leaving only an empty shell, is not yet known.

Regardless of whether it is dismantled or not, the aircraft carrier will definitely be towed back in the end. After being towed back, if you want to digest technology faster, the fastest thing is to have technical information.

If there is physical objects, then compare the technical data. After the technical data, the argument is made according to the understanding of the technicians, theory is linked to practice, and finally, domestic technology is used to replace Soviet technology. All equipment can also quickly provide domestic aircraft carriers during the production process.

What the domestic needs are more than just an aircraft carrier.

No matter what, one fleet of three major fleets needs one, and an aircraft carrier needs to be on duty during the maintenance of other aircraft carriers, so there are more than four.

Technical foundation is the most important.

"I'm going to talk about this matter at the moment. The Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is currently in service and is undergoing training for carrier-based aircraft takeoffs and landings. Ukraine means selling this to us..."

"What's the matter?" Xie Kai jumped up in fear at that time, "Who is so fucking tricks that you want us to be enemies of the Russians?"

This is impossible.

Even if Ukraine really wants to sell this, they dare not buy it.

"They asked for a price of one billion US dollars in the entire aircraft carrier and proposed to provide supporting carrier-based aircraft, etc...." Luo Feng did not expect that Xie Kai would react so much.

"This is good. If there is a complete one, we can directly train pilots, etc., have complete ones, digest technical data faster, and produce faster by ourselves..." Zheng Yucheng thought this was very good.

Wang Guilin also had a look of expectation on his face.

The Kuznetsov and Varyag are of the same class. Although the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier of Ulyanovsk are much behind and the number of carrier-based aircraft is not large, it is the most powerful aircraft carrier that the Soviet Navy has already served.

Whoever dares to take over this thing is to give money to suffer.

Isn't this a pity that I didn't die fast enough?

What's more, Ukraine cannot distribute this aircraft carrier. The Soviet Union has not yet disintegrated. In the allocation of this aircraft carrier, both Ukraine and Mao felt that it should belong to their own side.

Xie Kai knew that in the end, this aircraft carrier, which had not yet been fully completed, would be led by the deputy commander of the Northern Fleet, and only carried 30% of the crew members to leave overnight, and there was not even a single carrier-based aircraft.

Ukraine wants to sell it before it has been assigned to it, perhaps to cheat itself?

"What's good about this aircraft carrier? This aircraft carrier has not been distributed yet. Ukraine does want it, but Damao wants it even more. If we take over, will it be a hot potato?" Xie Kai gave Zheng Yucheng a blank look.

The old guy didn't think about what it would bring.

Wang Guilin also nodded, "What does the finished aircraft carrier mean? Although it is much cheaper, it will have a significant impact on domestic supporting construction. If it is not for reference, there is no need for even a shell, as long as the technical information is."

What Xie Kai said makes a lot of sense.

It is indeed not suitable to buy finished aircraft carriers.

"If you buy it, even if it can be put into use immediately, you don't even have the ability to repair such a large aircraft carrier. What's the use? Besides, the Navy's funds can't afford this thing at all. What's more, the aircraft carrier has not been fully completed..."

The national economy has indeed achieved great development results, but it still has no money.

There are still many areas of infrastructure construction that need to be invested in.

The military expenditure is too low, and the navy's funds cannot withstand this thing at all.

What's more, with aircraft carriers, carrier-based aircraft, various supporting facilities, and escort fleets, which are currently unsatisfactory in China.

The Russians have such strong manufacturing technology. Every time the Kuznetsov sails, the black smoke floating around can be found far away. That is because of the power system problems and the low combustion efficiency of heavy oil. In the end, Xie Kai doesn't know whether the PD-50 floating dock that can repair this huge aircraft carrier will be towed to China for maintenance after the sinking.

Anyway, Russia's domestic supporting facilities could not complete the overhaul task at that time.

If I get it back now, it will be useless.

He was also regarded as a life-and-death enemy by Da Mao. Although Xie Kai didn't care, he was already targeted by the KGB.

"Now Ukraine and Russia are discussing distribution and ownership, and both sides do not give in, so..." Luo Feng told some of the situation about the aircraft carrier.

"No rush now. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine no longer has the ability to complete this aircraft carrier. Whether it is supporting facilities or economic foundation, even if it has the ability, their navy cannot afford to support it..."

Xie Kai's change in attitude made Zheng Yucheng, Wang Guilin and others a little confused.

Xie Kai was originally worried, but now it seems that he is not in a hurry?

"What do you mean?" Wang Guilin asked Xie Kai.

"Don't worry, if possible, get the relevant technical information back first. What about aircraft carriers? Let's talk about it later when the Ukrainian government handles it, so that it will be cheaper. Anyway, the navy can't afford it now..."

This aircraft carrier will be very cheap in the future.

Moreover, the original equipment will also be removed, which is difficult to change.

"No more work now?" Luo Feng never thought that Xie Kai meant, "Brother, you didn't see the size of the aircraft carrier with your own eyes!"

How could I just give up like this!

If they give up, wouldn’t they be working in vain all these years?

"It's not to give up, but not to hurry." Xie Kai explained, "We will gradually accumulate experience, improve supporting facilities, and conduct early digestion technology according to the situation of the Varyag. At that time, even if there is no, we can start construction ourselves..."

The 404 does not have the ability to design aircraft carriers, and it still relies on the top 701 in China.

Although there are some designers at Hudong Shipyard, they only completed a certain part of the design, and the overall design is still 701.

For the 404, aircraft carriers and large surface ship designs are not their focus areas, but to promote the rapid development of this field.

With the aircraft carriers built by the Thai Navy, the supporting facilities will be gradually improved.

Once the supporting facilities are improved and technical experience is available, there is no difference between having or not having a Varyag.

After buying the Varyag, the main purpose is to improve domestic ship manufacturing facilities, so that technical designers can better understand the structure and become familiar with the various systems of the aircraft carrier.

After all, there is no experience in designing such a large aircraft carrier in China.

Even the aircraft carriers built by the Thai Navy are also moving forward through exploration.

If Xie Kai had not been based on the psychology of the Thai government and the extremely low price, it would have been impossible for him to let China, which had no experience in building aircraft carriers, build it.

"So, we don't have to worry about it. What's urgent in the future is that they will be. The more urgent they act, the higher the price they will be. We just bought this thing for gambling boats..." Xie Kai looked sinister.

Anyway, that company is for the shell of this aircraft carrier.

Xie Kai is not interested in running a gambling business at all. He is not interested in betting, but only likes to earn money honestly.

Make money honestly and use it steadily, right?

"What a pity that company has made a lot of money in a year." Luo Feng sighed.

Xie Kai had been planning this a long time ago, so it is naturally impossible for Macau to have no layout.

Ukraine.

Black Sea Shipyard.

The Riga aircraft carrier is equipped on the dock.

The wise look in the wise eyes of Yuri Ivanovic Makarov, who is less than 60 years old, reveals deep sadness in his wise eyes under his black-framed glasses.

This man who served as chief engineer of the Black Sea Shipyard since 1976 and later as director, built the Black Sea Shipyard at its peak. At this moment, he was standing on the bridge of the Riga, looking at the Ulyanovsk nuclear-powered aircraft carrier that had already taken shape on the No. 0 dock not far away.

On both sides of the dock, two 900-ton sky trucks bought from Finnish Nico Company stood quietly next to the huge aircraft carrier with countless scaffoldings, without any movement.

The entire shipyard is extremely quiet, and you can't see the busyness of the past or any gantry crane movements.

This Soviet largest surface ship construction factory, at its most glorious time, all docks were occupied, and construction work did not stop at all during the 24-hour period.

Whether in the dock or on the boat platform next to it, they are busy operating.

"All this will never happen again." Makarov, the shipyard, was saddened by everything in front of him.

Outside the port, the USS Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, which is undergoing a step-up of take-off and landing training, is slowly leaving the port.

"At least, one ship was completed, right?" Liu Dongsheng next to him looked equally complicated.

A huge empire is over.

On the bridge, the sea breeze blew, and even when the fur coat was wrapped tightly, I still felt the biting cold.

Especially Liu Dongsheng's body is relatively weak in this formation.

This winter is particularly cold.

The Riga has been in the water for three years and is covered with rust everywhere.

"It's a pity that this ship cannot continue. The remaining project volume is not large. You can conduct sea trials soon..." Even though you don't like Liu Dongsheng, at this moment, Makarov couldn't hate him, "You really have the ability to complete her construction? Do you know how many departments it requires and how much technology it requires?"

Starting from laying the keel, he watched the aircraft carrier build from scratch every day.

Who would just look like this and be useless?

The Black Sea Shipyard can no longer complete this huge aircraft carrier.

"If there is another country in this world that can complete the construction of this aircraft carrier, I think it will be my country. Unless the Soviet government can return to its original state..." Liu Dongsheng said very confidently.

There are not many countries in the world that are capable of building large aircraft carriers.
