: The idea of selling a large destroyer

How do you describe the equipment of a warship?

A large destroyer with a full load displacement of over 10,000 tons, such as the Dragon Kingdom’s Sea Blade-class destroyer and the Eagle Kingdom’s Burke-class destroyer, both cost more than one billion US dollars.

The British Brave-class destroyer has a full load displacement of more than 7,000 tons and a cost of nearly 1.3 billion. It is almost the same as a Burke-class destroyer.

But small and medium-sized countries cannot afford it, so they can only buy it from some big shipbuilding countries.

What I bought are some castrated versions. The cost has come down and they are a bit cheaper, but their performance is much worse than that of warships from major countries.

So He Zhenqing is also a little annoyed. Even if the warships of the Siamese Navy are sold at the original price, they cannot be sold for more than one billion US dollars. The 80,000-ton fleet is not as good as a 13,000-ton large destroyer of his own.

But it is certainly impossible for these warships to keep sinking the “537” and blocking it in the military port. Sooner or later they will have to be salvaged and disposed of.

How to deal with it?

You can’t dismantle and recycle a few tons of steel yourself, and you have to spend money and energy, as well as the shipyard’s dock production sequence.

It’s better to repair it, resell it to other countries, and make a little money back.

“No way! This is a fleet of 80,000 tons!” Yang Yuan frowned, his face wrinkled together, and complained: “These two or three thousand ton warships were all built at the beginning of this century. The warships launched, not to mention the frigates of big countries, are already considered very powerful navies in the waters of small countries and even in some regional waters.”

“And if we don’t tell you, who knows that those ships have sunk once?”

The salvage and repair of a warship are calculated on a monthly basis. Warships with a capacity of over 10,000 tons may even take two to three years to repair.

The Qin Empire has a red alert system, and the shipyard can repair a warship in a few days. This is not a black technology that the outside world can imagine. So as long as the Qin State is fast enough, repairs these ships and displays them, and they are not sunk. It was seized.

Can those Siamese naval admirals who have become prisoners jump out to refute?

It’s not Qin that has the final say.

“That’s right, whether it sinks or sinks is not our decision.” He Zhenqing rolled his eyes at him and said: “How about this, you do the sales, and tomorrow there will be several groups of foreign trade teams from small and medium-sized countries coming. How much you can sell is up to you.”

“No, no, no, no, I don’t have the ability to bid with others.” Yang Yuan waved his hands repeatedly.

He was an engineer in the Red Alert system, so it was no problem for him to be responsible for the management of weapons and equipment and the logistics of war, but selling products at high prices was not his strength.

It can even be said that he is a bit introverted.

But when I think about the fact that most of these warships are trophies of the navy, all the money they sell goes into the navy’s account. If the price is too cheap, it will be very annoying for Navy Commander Chen Ce to block the door and make trouble for me. Very!

He Zhenqing couldn’t help but smile when he saw Yang Yuan’s melancholy expression.

He probably guessed something. It was nothing more than a cheap sale of these trophies, and the navy must be somewhat dissatisfied.

Although everyone is from the Red Alert system, serving the emperor and being loyal, there are still some irrelevant competitive relationships in private.

He Zhenqing thought for a while, then said to Yang Yuan: “These warships are all second-hand goods, IWC brand, and they don’t make much money even if they are packaged and sold. You might as well talk to His Majesty the Emperor and see if he can allow the sale of a few large destroyers. Let’s build a castrated version of a destroyer with a full load displacement of 10,000 tons, to compete with the Burke class of Eagle Country, and it will cost US$2 billion, or even US$3 billion, and you’ll see if the big guys buy it!”

With these words, Yang Yuan suddenly became enlightened and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Large destroyers are now controlled by various major powers, and basically only countries at the level of the five major powers have the ability to manufacture them.

Moreover, because of the Littoral Combat Ship thing that Ying Kingdom did before, it was successfully imitated by navies of other countries. As a result, Dragon Kingdom exploded a large 12,000-ton Sea Blade-class destroyer, which directly confused the whole world. Forced.

Then everyone discovered that it seems that the large destroyer is more likely to cause trouble? !

So they all began to study the Dragon Kingdom’s Sea Blade-class large destroyers, and began to prepare their own large destroyers.

For example, the DDG (X) destroyer project of the Eagle Country, the Type 83 destroyer of the English Country, Prussia, Italy, Japan, South Korea, and Tianzhu have also launched their own 10,000-ton large destroyer plans.

These countries either have their own shipbuilding industry system, or they have the support of Eagle Country Dad. Of course, there are also three such 0.

But some other countries have no way to even buy a 10,000-ton large destroyer.

This kind of 10,000-ton large destroyer is a national artifact of all countries. In the era before World War II, when there were no aircraft carriers, every one of them was like a battleship.

Of course it’s not something that can be easily bought and sold.

For example, Gou Dahu has always wanted some advanced ships to improve his own navy, but even the Dragon Kingdom has only expressed its willingness to sell some six- or seven-thousand-ton destroyers, but not the 10,000-ton destroyers.

Goudahu has been watching the Burke class of the Eagle Kingdom wandering around his door all year round, and has also seen the 10,000-ton large destroyers of the Dragon Kingdom. Naturally, he looks down on the 6,000-7,000-ton destroyers.

If it weren’t for the fact that various countries don’t sell advanced aircraft carriers, maybe big players would want to buy aircraft carriers from the Dragon Kingdom.

In short, for a big dog owner, the more advanced and expensive things are, the more he likes them!

After receiving He Zhenqing’s ‘advice’, Yang Yuan immediately left and went to His Majesty the Emperor’s temporary palace.

“Your Majesty, Minister Yang Yuan would like to see you.” Wang Yao was resting, wearing a loose nightgown, half lying on the sofa, watching some international news on the tablet in his hand, paying attention to the recent international situation, and suddenly there was a sound coming from behind him. He heard Eva’s sweet voice.

“Let him come in.” Wang Yao didn’t look back and continued to lie half on the sofa.

After a while, Yang Yuan walked in under the leadership of Eva 2.5.

“I have met His Majesty!” Yang Yuan stood in front of Wang Yao and saluted dignifiedly.

“No need for formalities, just sit down.” Wang Yao waved his hand and said to Eva: “Go and make two cups of tea.”

Wang Yao is very friendly and casual to his fellow members of the Red Police Department.

“Okay, Your Majesty!” Eva obediently went to boil water to make tea.

Wang Yao put away the tablet in his hand and looked at Yang Yuan who was sitting opposite: “Tell me, what’s the matter?”

Yang Yuan said: “Your Majesty, the Siamese ships salvaged by the navy are all second-hand goods and IWC brands. Countries may not be interested in buying them. I am thinking that since the empire sells Su-47 Black Hawk fighter jets to other countries Now, can we sell some small and medium-sized warships? This is a bundled sale.”

“For example, a destroyer of no more than 10,000 tons?”.
