In early November, the domestic MT30 gas turbine finally ushered in the critical moment of detailed design review. You must know that this engine is used for domestic destroyers and aircraft carriers, so it is quite critical, because as long as it successfully passes the review, by the end of this month, the domestically produced

Projects for the 052B and 052C destroyers are about to be approved. This destroyer is an eight thousand ton class destroyer.

In this gas turbine review meeting, Zhu Guodong once again served as the leader of the expert group. Now he is the most powerful power expert in the country.

The military organized a large team of experts to conduct a comprehensive and detailed design review of the MT30 gas turbine. At the review meeting, military leaders made an important speech. It can be said that the military attaches great importance to the development of this gas turbine and is very concerned about the current development.

The progress is also quite satisfactory.

Next, the leaders of the aviation industry, the shipbuilding industry, and the expert team leader Zhu Guodong all spoke respectively.

The review work has begun. This time the experts will spend three days completing the detailed design review work, which is also very hard.

After rigorous review by experts, the detailed design of the MT30 gas turbine finally passed the review smoothly. When Zhu Guodong announced the review results on behalf of the experts, the audience applauded for a long time.

The passing of this review also successfully laid the foundation for the establishment of the domestic 052 series destroyer project.

Next, Zhu Guodong is also preparing to participate in the project meeting of the 052 destroyer. This time Zhu Guodong also went to the 701 Institute to discuss the overall design plan with the designers, which is similar to the Spruen class and Burke class of the US military. The 052

There are two models in the series, one is a universal type and the other is an air defense type, so one is cheaper and does not install a phased array radar system, while the other needs to be equipped with the domestic Aegis system.

So this time, we are actually setting up a project to develop two destroyers, but their hulls and power are the same, and their tonnage is also similar, both are over 8,000 tons.

It can be said that these two types of destroyers of the 052 series will be very important in the navy's equipment in the future. They are the main destroyers.

Of course, the number of 052B general-purpose destroyers built will definitely be smaller, with six expected, while the 052C and improved models will be equipped with at least ten.

Even if it is the general-purpose Type 052B, its combat capability must exceed that of the modern class, and of course it must exceed the Spruen class. This is its important use.

Zhu Guodong made a lot of good suggestions, which surprised the designers. They actually didn't know that Zhu Guodong was a time traveler and knew a lot about the design and development of destroyers.

Of course, although the 052B guided missile destroyer does not have a phased array radar system, it will also be equipped with a domestic top-plate three-coordinate radar, which is enough for a general-purpose destroyer.

Zhu Guodong is still very excited. Now he has made many fewer detours. For example, the 112 and 113 ships are no longer available, and the 051C Goose Aegis is no longer available.

Directly building an 8,000-ton advanced destroyer is a complete step.

An 8,000-ton domestic Aegis ship is awesome. Although it may be worse than the Burke-class radar in terms of radar performance, it is not much worse in terms of tonnage. It also has a vertical launch system and will be further improved in the future.

, that’s good.

What's more important is to lay the foundation for the future 10,000-ton cruisers. By then, a new generation of Aegis ships with 12,000 tons will be built in one step, which will surpass the US military's Ticonderoga-class cruisers.

At the end of November, a domestically produced 052 series destroyer project meeting was held in a conference room of the Naval Equipment Department. More than 300 people attended the project meeting, all leaders and experts in the navy, shipbuilding industry and other related fields.

This project establishment meeting was very grand. Above the rostrum, there was a banner that read "China-made 052B and 052C ocean-going guided missile destroyer project establishment meeting."

After the meeting began, the military leaders first made important speeches.

The military leader was from the navy. He seemed a little excited and said loudly: "Comrades, good morning, everyone. Today we are holding our 052 series destroyer project meeting here. I believe everyone is very clear about the pace of our navy's weapons and equipment construction.

It will be greatly accelerated. This is

A good thing, but also a very difficult thing. Think about the time when our naval equipment was very backward. I think it won’t be long before we have the world’s first-class warships. We must build the navy into a world-class navy.

Water and navy, this is our unswerving goal!"

The applause was quite warm, and everyone was very excited. Thinking about it, the navy was indeed too backward in the past. It was more than one generation behind the world's first-class navy. Compared with the army and air force, the navy's equipment was even more backward. But it is different now.

Now, the country has decided to vigorously develop the navy and air force, so funding is guaranteed.

Coupled with technological breakthroughs, it is now possible to build domestically produced Aegis ships.

Next, the leader of the shipbuilding industry also gave an important speech. He mentioned that the shipbuilding industry has developed rapidly in recent years, especially in the construction of world-class shipbuilding bases in Changxing, Jiangnan, Dalian Shipyard, and other places.

This is a goal that has been set and will be implemented soon.

Finally, Chief Pan, the chief engineer of the 052 series, introduced the overall design plans of these two types of ships.

This is what everyone is most concerned about. The military's technical indicators have been given, but how the 701st Institute implements them is very critical.

Everyone saw the design drawings of the two types of ships and liked them very much. This is a design with Chinese characteristics. It does not copy the Burke class and Spruen class. The superstructure is lower, although it is not good for radar performance.

It is said that the higher the better, but a higher center of gravity will affect the stability of navigation.

After all, an Aegis system weighs dozens of tons, possibly even hundreds of tons.

The performance of the domestic Aegis system is very good, and the indicators are at least like this, not much worse than the Burke-class.

Another eye-catching power system. Now both types of ships have one power system. The combined power of two MT30 gas turbines and two high-power diesel engines is very powerful. An eight-thousand-ton destroyer can easily reach three

A speed of twelve knots.

If the 052C is built, it will be the third Aegis ship in the world. The first is the Ticonderoga-class cruiser. This advanced warship has been in service since the early 1980s.

Both types 052B and 052C destroyers will be equipped with advanced 130mm single-barreled rapid-fire naval guns. Its performance is very good, much stronger than the old 100mm double-barreled guns, and its air defense is also good.

In addition, the domestic 730 close-in defense system is also standard. The 80-unit vertical launch system is also a technical problem, but it can still be solved.

The design plan of Institute 701 has been highly recognized by leaders and experts. Next, we will carry out detailed design and technical breakthroughs on this basis, and finally build it.
