Those aboriginal forces are not fools. If they really want to sell raw materials and resources to others, they will probably not choose monetary transactions. They will probably choose the resources or commodities they need most and are in short supply to barter.
Therefore, it is still unknown how useful such a plan can be, but the cost-saving method can be implemented. Speer said it right. The raw materials required to build small and medium-sized warships are compared with those of large battleships. Much less.
But the construction period of these small and medium-sized warships is also quite short. The Fletcher-class destroyer only takes 5 days, the Brooklyn-class light cruiser only takes 10 days, and even the Baltimore-class heavy cruiser only takes 12 days.
In the time it takes to build one Nelson-class battleship, at least six Fletcher-class destroyers and three Brooklyn-class light cruisers and Baltimore-class heavy cruisers can be built.
And in previous shipbuilding plans, a large number of small and medium-sized warships have been arranged in each round. Taken together, after completing a round of construction of large-scale main battleships, the amount of money needed to build these small and medium-sized warships will actually be consumed. There is not a lot of raw materials, even if it is not as much as the consumption of the main battleship, it is not much different.
If the construction of these small and medium-sized warships is really suspended, these saved raw material resources can indeed be used to build more large-scale main warships.
Ye Bai thought about it carefully and found that the guard fleet, patrol fleet and resource point defense fleet of Yuntong Island and No. 308 Island have actually been formed. With the help of the player fleet, there is no need for large-scale expansion for the time being. Maintaining the status quo can only involve minor repairs and adding some small and medium-sized warships, which will not consume many resources.
As for the main fleet, although Ye Bai couldn't wait to build a large number of new warships for fleet expansion, he wanted to rely on his strong strength to occupy more islands and resource points.
But at the same time, he also knew deeply that this kind of thing could not be accomplished overnight. 277 Those senior players were able to upgrade the occupied islands to medium-sized islands or even large islands, but they did not know how much it cost and how much time they spent. It has not even been a year since Ye Bai entered the world of sailing, and his current achievements are already very good.
Being too ambitious is a big taboo for a leader. Ye Bai has actually made this mistake to some extent.
Now, due to an unexpected raw material supply problem, Ye Bai was woken up, and his somewhat fluttering heels finally fell to the ground.
"Okay, just do what you want. After this round of battleships are launched into service, stop the construction of all battleships first. After the scientific research center has mastered all the construction technology of new battleships, prioritize the construction of a batch of Yamato-class battleships. North Carolina class battleships and Essex class aircraft carriers, used to replace those capital ships currently equipped in the main fleet"
"The specific construction plan is up to you based on our raw material output, but the ratio of the number of Yamato-class battleships to North Carolina-class battleships should remain at 1:3 for the time being."
It's not that Ye Bai doesn't want to build more Yamato-class battleships. After all, if the combat power of the two battleships is compared, the Yamato-class battleships completely crush the North Carolina-class battleships, even one on two.
But there is still the problem, building A Yamato-class battleship consumes too many raw material resources. Without more raw material output, it is not suitable for large-scale construction. The expression on Speer's face became solemn and he said seriously :"Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely allocate our existing resources reasonably and complete your instructions."
When Ye Bai came to the small space this time, he was full of joy, especially after learning that the scientists at the scientific research center had independently developed a comprehensive supply ship with good performance, his mood was so beautiful. Ye Bai was in a great mood Bai even spent an afternoon wandering around in the small space, which was extremely leisurely.
As a result, Speer poured a basin of cold water on his head, which made his heart feel cold. He was no longer in a good mood. He decided to settle down today. No matter what, he had to find two more nurses to give him a massage to soothe his injured heart. He was in urgent need of warmth.
Since he was not in a good mood, Ye Bai was not ready to stay in the small space any longer. Go back to the young lady for warmth and comfort.
Before leaving, Ye Bai suddenly thought of something, stopped, turned around again, and said to Speer:"By the way, this batch of small and medium-sized battleships After launching the water, don’t let the vacant slipway sit idle. The Dimarshen-class comprehensive supply ship will be arranged for me."
"Didn't you say that there are 60 slipways that can be vacated? None of them will be kept. They will all be used to build Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ships. When these comprehensive supply ships are completed, no other warships will be built for the time being. Give the workers who have worked hard for so long a good few days off. Speer agreed to Ye Bai's request without saying a word. In the final analysis, the Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship is just an auxiliary warship. Many technical requirements are much lower than those of combat ships. Correspondingly, the consumption of raw materials is also much less.
Although the tonnage of the Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship is not light, building 60 such warships consumes more resources than building combat ships of the same tonnage. It will not have a big impact on Speer's plan to reduce costs.
Ye Bai has even thought about the allocation of these 60 Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ships. The allocation of No. 308 Island and Yuntong Island Each of the guard fleets is equipped with 30 ships, which are specifically responsible for supplying patrol fleets and defense fleets at various resource points. (abaj) The main fleet is not equipped with this Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship for the time being. It is not that there is no demand, but There are better Sacramento-class fast combat support ships that can be equipped.
Ye Bai plans to wait until the Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship enters service, and then transfer the two Sacramento-class fast combat support ships that were previously assigned to the Yuntong Island Guard Fleet. Return to the main fleet.
Use all 10 Sacramento-class fast combat support ships and some combat ships to form a supply fleet.
Because of the existence of the Yanhuang, the main fleet never needs to worry about the supply of battleships, but After the Yanhuang's major upgrade this time, all warships must keep the Yanhuang in base form if they want to freely enter and exit the small space.
This does not matter in normal times, but if it is during long-distance navigation, it will be more troublesome. After all, there is a 3-hour cooling period for the Yanhuang's two forms to transform. In order to replenish the fleet warships, it will take a lot of time.
This time the main fleet set off from Yuntong Island and rushed to No. 308. In the equation of the island, many times we had to temporarily stop to resupply the fleet, and spent a lot of time getting the warships into a small space. Only after completing the supply work could they start sailing again.
Another point is the current size of the main fleet. It is not too big, with only more than 200 battleships, but in the future, the main fleet will definitely not always maintain this size.
The number of battleships is increasing, and the establishment of multiple squadrons will make the main fleet Many times it is necessary to divide the forces for combat. Just like this time in the [Battle of Midway] dungeon space, Lütjens’s second fleet and Halsey’s third fleet have their own tasks to complete. Not next to the Yanhuang.
In this trip to the dungeon space, the mission of the Second Fleet and the Third Fleet was not long, and the problems of logistical supply have not yet been reflected. If this goes on for a long time, or the battle becomes too fierce, these problems will not be solved. It’s coming out.
Not only the problem of logistical supply, but also the problem of battleship maintenance will also appear, and the mobile dock should come in handy.
In fact, strictly speaking, the Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship It is not the first auxiliary ship developed by the scientists of the scientific research center, but the mobile dock.
Earlier, the scientific research center had already produced a construction drawing of the mobile dock and built as many as 20 ships. , this time repairing the damaged battleship in the copy space was of great help.
Advance Base Segmented Floating Dock, referred to as ABSD. This type of dock is assembled segment by segment. Taking a large dock that is spliced in 10 segments as an example, its length can reach 252 meters and its width can reach 41 meters. It is equipped with crew members. 600-1,000 people can lift a large ship of 90,000 tons at a time.
In order to improve survivability, these docks are very durable and can be towed to a new location at a speed of 6-8 knots after being disassembled. The walls of the docks can be folded to lower their center of gravity and resist wind and waves during transportation.
The dock is equipped with a power station, maintenance room, crew club, canteen, etc., and all kinds of support facilities are available. At the same time, the dock is also equipped with two mobile rail cranes, which can lift 15 tons of various materials and parts..
With the existence of ABSD, all battleships on the sea, including Yamato-class battleships, can be repaired at the first time and quickly restore their peak combat effectiveness. With the support of the Yanhuang general logistics base, the soft power of the Chinese fleet will be will be greatly improved. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
I have never dared to use the Sacramento-class fast combat support ships before. That’s because Ye Bai only has these 10 ships in his hands, and he doesn’t even have the complete construction drawings. With the ability to build it yourself, the loss of one ship will mean one less ship.
The most important thing is that the Chinese fleet has not mastered the construction technology of other supply ships. If it is gone, it is really gone. Now that there is a Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship, there is no need to worry too much.
The worst case scenario is that after the loss of the Sacramento-class fast combat support ship, these lower-performance Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ships can be used on top. There will be no situation where there are no supply ships available..
