All-people naval warfare: from patrol boats to aircraft carrier fleets

Even in Ye Bai's heart, he felt quite lucky. Perhaps in his subconscious mind, he believed that at this time, a top scientist who was good at radar research was more useful than top scientists in other fields.

Ye Bai himself couldn't remember when the radar system was last upgraded. Since the radar system was upgraded to level 8, there has been no progress. Although airborne radar has been successfully developed and carrier-based aircraft units have been equipped, But in fact, the progress of radar research and upgrade work is quite slow.

The scientific and technological strength of those large and medium-sized indigenous forces is not clear, but among the small indigenous forces and all player groups, the radar level of the Chinese fleet is definitely at the top level. Not only has the detection radar been upgraded to level 8, but also the aircraft connection Both airborne radar and fire control radar appeared.

But this is not the capability of the scientific research center. After acquiring the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter construction technology, the airborne radar was included in the drawings and technical information. The scientific research center only mastered it and initially developed.

The fire control radar is even more ridiculous. It was after the upgrade of the Yanhuang and the emergence of the combat center that the sonar system and the fire control radar system were all integrated. This allowed the Chinese fleet to successfully master the sonar system and fire control radar. The production technology is equipped on each warship.

But the scientific research center can only go so far. Currently, the carrier-based aircraft that can be equipped with airborne radar include the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter and the F4U Stealth carrier-based fighter.、P-38 Lightning fighter, IL-4 bomber and the SB2C Helldiver bomber that has just been put into mass production service.

It looks like a lot, but in fact, except for the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter, which has an airborne radar installed21 in the fairing, several other fighters all use a radar pod to mount the airborne radar. Radars are equipped on fighter planes.

This method can only be said to solve the problem of the presence or absence of airborne radar. In the fierce air, or even during flight, a target as conspicuous as the radar pod may be hit by a bullet or have a mechanical failure. But it's quite big.

Therefore, Ye Bai has always hoped that the scientific research center can work harder to continue to upgrade the airborne radar, and can cancel the method of attaching a radar pod, just like the F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jet, integrating the airborne radar into the body. Reduce the risk of being attacked or experiencing mechanical failure.

The progress of the Naihe Scientific Research Center on airborne radar is not very good. It seems that the radar system has been upgraded to level 8. It has also developed a large ground radar. It has also upgraded the airborne radar to a certain extent. At the same time, it has also mastered Production technology of fire control radar.

But in fact, the technical capabilities and R&D capabilities in radar are still insufficient. I haven’t seen that it has been so long. The level of shipborne radar has been stuck at level 8 and has not been upgraded to level 9. Level.

Now with Watt, Ye Bai believes that under the leadership of this top physicist who is good at radar, the scientific research center will have huge changes in the scientific research capabilities of radar systems.

Even if it is not possible to develop a level 9 shipborne radar, it should still be possible to further upgrade the existing airborne radars and fire control radars. Even if it is not possible, those radars must be upgraded while ensuring the performance of the airborne radars. The pod was eliminated and truly integrated into the body.

Out of concern for Watt, Ye Bai personally brought Watt, who had just appeared in the war situation center, to the small-space scientific research center, and summoned all the scientists engaged in radar research in the large conference room. Got up, introduced Watt to them, and announced on the spot that Watt would become the person in charge of radar research.

With Ye Bai personally coming forward to endorse Watt, the scientists certainly expressed a warm welcome to Watt, but what they thought in their hearts was unknown.

It has been almost a year since he came to the world of navigation. He has been in a high position for a long time and has managed so many people. Although he has the help of Zhou Guolai, Nimitz and others, Ye Bai has been a hands-off shopkeeper most of the time, but he has also seen that Many of them have rough guesses about the thoughts of these scientists.

So while all the radar scientists were present, Ye Bai simply came to a scientific seminar and put forward several requirements on the spot, which was to further improve the performance of airborne radars and fire control radars, and upgrade shipborne radars from 8 level up to level 9.

When talking about the progress of scientific research, the reactions of scientists are different. Watt, who has just taken office, takes the lead and asks various scientific research groups to report on the current research progress.

As a top scientist, Watt is much stronger than the ordinary scientists in the conference room in terms of hard power. The only flaw is that he is not familiar with the current research progress and the ability level of the scientists.

Through this research progress report, Watt's smart head is also running at high speed, memorizing and analyzing all the information. Especially after this guy listened to all the reports, he immediately raised the difficulties currently faced by each scientific research team. own solutions and suggestions.

Although these solutions and suggestions are only theoretical and have not been verified in practice, they are all experts in this field. After listening to them, the scientists' eyes lit up, as if the fog in front of them was lifted.

Later, most of the scientists who were still somewhat interested in teaching were impressed by Watt's ability, and they rushed to present the problems encountered by their groups during the research process one by one, hoping to gain Watt's ability. of guidance.

Watt also had a smile on his face. Far from being dissatisfied with the questions on the table, he used his own ability to answer them one by one.

The problems faced by ordinary scientists are indeed difficult for them, but it is different for Watt. Some are solved on the spot, and even if some cannot be solved on the spot, Watt can also give corresponding suggestions, or in other words, correct answers. Thoughts, his abilities were vividly displayed in this scientific seminar, and most of the scientists were convinced.

Of course, Ye Bai couldn't understand this purely scientific seminar. He was confused throughout the whole process, as if he was listening to a book from heaven, let alone participating in it.

However, the purpose of Ye Bai's temporary scientific seminar was not to participate in the scientists' research on radar systems. The most important thing was to let Watt show his face, show his ability and level, and impress these ordinary scientists.

After all, only by truly convincing these scientists can Watt become a real person in charge, leading these scientists to work together to conduct research on radar systems and continuously improve the performance of various radars.

As the top leader, Ye Bai certainly has the right to directly appoint people to any position, but if the appointee cannot convince those under his command, it will be a big trouble. There may not be any overt and covert behavior, or all kinds of hindrances, but He won't work hard in one place, which will create more trouble for his work.

With this scientific seminar, although Watt also bears the title of an airborne soldier, his own ability and level are strong enough. In the process of scientific research and discussion, he also convinced these scientists, and there will no longer be that kind of uncooperation. situation.

Even though he couldn't understand the whole process and was in a state of confusion, Ye Bai's evaluation of this scientific seminar was quite high. Seeing a group of people immersed in the ocean of science, they all forgot the existence of his supreme leader. Among the scientists, Ye Bai nodded with satisfaction, then left the scientific research center with the guards and returned to the war center.

With Watt taking the lead, the scientific research center has a leader in radar. It depends on when Watt and his scientists can give a satisfactory answer. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Just two days later, several IL-4 bombers, escorted by more than a dozen Zero fighter jets, took Frank and his family from Yuntong Island. Arriving at Island No. 308, they were then sent to the Yanhuang.

Speaking of which, Ye Bai originally did not plan to equip the Zero fighter aircraft in the army, but later discovered that the distance between Island No. 308 and Yuntong Island was more than 2,000 kilometers, and the IL-4's range was certainly sufficient.

But the Il-4 is always just a bomber and does not have much air combat capabilities. The personnel who can use the Il-4 to transport 457 are very important people. If there is any accident in the air, Ye Baike can I'm about to cry to death.

Therefore, the fighter jets that escort the Il-4 cannot be ignored. Previously, only the P-38 Lightning fighter had the longest range and could barely undertake this task. However, this also required that there would be no fighting in the middle, otherwise the P-38 Lightning would not be enough. Saw it.

Once the Zero fighter appeared, this problem was solved instantly. No matter how much Ye Bai looked down on this fighter, it was undeniable that under the current level of technology, the Zero fighter was absolutely incomparable to other forces."King".

The most important thing is that the range of the Zero fighter is large enough, and it can reach 2,200 kilometers under normal circumstances. If an auxiliary fuel tank is added, its maximum range can even reach 3,400 kilometers, which can fully meet the mission of the Il-4..

Therefore, in order to ensure that Frank's family was safely sent to the island No. 308, Ye Bai made a special trip to mobilize more than 10 Zero fighter jets from a small space and flew to Yuntong Island. After refueling and overhauling, he escorted them all the way.

It was Ye Bai who came forward in person and led Frank's family into the small space. He settled his family in the villa prepared by Zhou Guolai in advance. From now on, they will always live in the small space.

As for Frank, he fell into a state of ecstasy the moment he entered the small space. This kind of black technology-like product is a dream for any scientist. Even if it cannot be studied, it can provide these scientists with endless benefits. Less inspiration.

When he arrived at the scientific research center, Frank was even more interested in the various scientific research equipment inside. After the same scientific seminar, Frank, like Watt, convinced most of the shipbuilding experts with his own abilities, and naturally became a Head of ship research.

However, what Frank is best at is the design and development of heavy cruisers, which are just one of many battleships. In the future, other top scientists will inevitably join them and serve as leaders of other groups..
