Homo sapiens

Just when Li Qingye was paying attention to the progress of the nuclear project in Black Tiger Canyon.

Inside the First Shipyard in Panay Island, Luzon.

A Super Luzon-class amphibious assault ship with a displacement of 55,000 tons has completed the generation of the main structure of the hull and entered the intensive interior decoration stage.

Huang Weida, Ino and others who came from the Third Shipyard to support them finally breathed a sigh of relief when they looked at the behemoth in front of them.

During nearly a week of immersion testing, the hull showed no signs of deformation, leakage, or rupture.

They walked towards another fully enclosed shipyard. This is the second ship of the Super Luzon class. Currently, about 76% of the main structure has been generated and will be completed in another two weeks.

At this time, the head of the design team of the Super Luzon-class amphibious assault ship, Mori Shangtetsu, was also looking at the giant ship in front of him with excitement. The unique soul of the Japanese seemed to be burning.

On the side, Ino spread his hands with a pained face: "Designer Mori, I still disagree with this design."

"Designer Ino, your idea is too old-fashioned. We must make full use of the company's material advantages to develop an asymmetric combat method that can deal with the enemy." Mori Shangzhe replied enthusiastically.

Huang Weida was already used to the constant arguments between the two.

Of course, the second super-Luzon class ship in front of us is indeed very unique, or weird.

The Super Luzon class is not an ordinary amphibious assault ship, but an amphibious assault ship. In addition to supporting landing operations and sea surface operations, it can also dive.

Similar to the design of a semi-submersible ship, coupled with the strengthened hull, the overall strength of the hull is about 2.7 times higher than that of ordinary submarines, and the ultimate diving depth is 2,400 meters.

In the design, Sen Shangzhe used a rapid submersion solution, which is a negative pressure water injection tank, which can allow the warship to sink below the sea surface in 15 seconds.

The reason why it has to be so fast is why Sen Shangzhe designed the Super Luzon class as a submarine. If it doesn't dive fast enough, it will be difficult to avoid missile attacks.

Although the hull material of the New Luzon class is very strong, conventional torpedoes such as TNT, even the 800 mm caliber class, cannot tear open its hull, let alone small toothpicks such as Tomahawk cruise missiles.

But this act of resisting enemy firepower is obviously a bit foolish.

Sen Shangzhe discovered a situation, that is, with the intensity of the Homo sapiens company's monitoring of the seabed, slow torpedoes have no way to get close to one's own submarines and warships. On the contrary, fighter jets or missiles in the sky can lock the water surface through radar. Battleship.

Therefore, he chose to maximize his strengths and avoid his weaknesses.

Once a war breaks out with the enemy, the Super Luzon can dive quickly to avoid enemy radar monitoring and missile strikes.

As for sonar detection, there is no need to be afraid of the Super Luzon class, because the Homo sapiens company currently has the second generation silencing tile technology. Under water speeds below 10 knots, it is basically the same as the ocean background noise, and active sonar cannot detect it. its traces.

This is why Sen Shangzhe insists on the submarine plan.

Homo sapiens company has very obvious advantages in the field of materials. Its design is to give full play to the advantages of materials and play asymmetrically with its opponents.

Ino sneered at this plan: "It's just that your plan is putting the cart before the horse. You must know that this is an amphibious assault ship. You are not going to take back the aircraft you released? And how can your own aircraft determine the position of the Super Luzon class? Is the aircraft supposed to be a super-Luzon-class aircraft?" Disposable items?”

"No! No!" Sen Shangzhe smiled triumphantly:

"Designer Inno, you should pay more attention to the company's confidential scientific research journals. The magnetic field radar and magnetic field communication recently developed by Mr. Chairman have begun to be equipped."

"Magnetic field radar? Magnetic field communication?" Ino was confused.

However, Huang Weida had read some related internal journals, and he asked in surprise: "Has it entered the practical stage?"

"Yes, this is another great masterpiece by Mr. Chairman." Sen Shangzhe's eyes were full of enthusiasm.

"What's the journal number?" Ino asked quickly.

"36-6605275." Huang Weida replied casually.

Ino turned on his tablet, searched the internal journal database, and quickly found a dozen related academic papers.

After a rough look, Ino suddenly realized.

Magnetic field radar is different from electromagnetic wave radar in that it does not need to emit electromagnetic waves, so there is no problem of being locked or being severely blocked by sea water.

Even two to three hundred meters underwater, the magnetic field radar carried by a fighter jet can still see obvious magnetic field signals.

The magnetic field communication technology is not a high-throughput communication, but a communication mode similar to semaphore.

For example, the submarine and the aircraft have agreed that as long as the aircraft explodes at a speed of Mach 2.8 for 3 minutes, or the aircraft performs a wide range of maneuvers with a special trajectory in the air, it means that the aircraft is about to return.

At this time, the submarine can prepare to surface and receive the aircraft for return.

In addition, because the ship is large enough, it can also be equipped with magnetic field changing equipment inside the cabin, which can transmit signals to surrounding ships and aircraft through changes in the intensity of the electromagnetic field.

This technology greatly solves the problem of submarine communication. At the same time, there is no need to worry about communication signals being discovered by enemy electronic signal reconnaissance aircraft and reconnaissance ships.

As for whether the enemy will track its own fighter jets to target the submersible warships, this is definitely the best solution the enemy can think of.

Seeing the thoughtful Ino, Sen Shangzhe asked with a smile:

"Did Designer Eno think that the enemy might track the fighter jets? I can tell you that if they want to lock the submerged warship by tracking the fighter jets, that is a wishful thinking."

He continued to explain: "I have a full understanding of the current company's fighter jets. Whether it is the Eagle fighter jet of the Army Aviation, the Seahawk fighter jet used by Hainan Airlines, or the Sea Ray UAV of Feiyu Company, they all have the ability to cruise at ultra-low altitudes. , ultra-low altitude sea surface, to lock on an aircraft with stealth coating, unless they also have magnetic field radar."

Seeing the depressed look on Inno's face, Huang Weida changed the topic: "What are the performance of Seahawk fighter jets and Sea Ray drones? Can they be used on the Super Luzon-class amphibious assault ship?"

He asked this because the Super Luzon-class sacrificed part of the flight deck area in order to realize the submarine function.

Its flight deck is only 220 meters long and 40 meters wide, which is slightly smaller than the 40,000-ton Wasp-class amphibious assault ship.

"There is no problem at all." Mori Shangzhe has read the test report of Qingye Airlines' Seahawk fighter jet, and even went to Feiyu Company to inspect the actual flight test of the Sea Ray UAV.

The Seahawk fighter is actually a light fighter designed by Aoye Aviation based on the technology of the Eagle fighter and the vertical take-off and landing fighter technology of Lucia and America.

It can take off and land on the Super Luzon-class and Luzon-class amphibious assault ships, and its payload reaches 4.3 tons, the maximum speed can reach Mach 2.8, and the cruise range is about 3,200 kilometers.

This type of fighter is currently in the process of debugging and development. A total of 12 initial models have been produced, 6 of which have been deployed on the Medan amphibious assault ship.

The Sea Ray UAV has entered the mass production stage, and the Luzon Navy is currently equipped with a total of 85 units.

This kind of drone adopts a large number of bionic designs. In low-speed cruising state, the range can reach 6,000 kilometers, and it can fly close to the sea surface.
