Rebirth of Military Workers

"Chief, don't you have a good rest?" At around 7 o'clock in the morning, Xie Kai followed the leaders of the shipyard to the airport to pick up the navy bosses. He looked at Commander Liu with bloodshot eyes and looked surprised.

Zheng Yucheng kept winking at Xie Kai beside him, but this kid didn't even see it.

"The boat has already set off and will be able to reach the designated area tomorrow evening." Liu Commander said calmly to Xie Kai.

Xie Kai looked happy, and immediately made the faces of several officers in the Navy look bad. Zheng Yucheng saw this scene and directly pulled Xie Kai aside, "You guys are not usually very elves? Can't you see that they are in the wrong mood today?"

"I didn't think so." Xie Kai looked at the few navy leaders who were greeting the shipyard leader, scratching his head and said.

He really didn't feel anything abnormal, at least he didn't feel it before.

"Last night, Commander Liu and the commander of the North Sea Fleet did not sleep. They stood in front of Ship 102 all night. I followed the sea breeze all night, and I didn't dare to say anything for fear of being beaten." Zheng Yucheng simply said yesterday. Tell Xie Kai about the situation at night.

Xie Kai immediately understood why Zheng Yu had settled down in Chengdu.

He knows the status of the Anshan class. The navy has deep feelings for any warship. These years, the navy has insufficient funding and the number of warships is small. The naval force even has many warships that have been overdue for service. Warships that have overdue service are usually docked in ports as training ships, and they rarely even go to sea.

"I just wanted to give up yesterday... Commander Liu did not agree." Seeing Xie Kai could understand, Zheng Yucheng no longer worried.

"Are you afraid I don't understand? Do you remember Feng Guozhi when you cheated me and told me to send me a tank as a toy?" Xie Kai saw Zheng Yucheng's expression and knew what he was thinking.

It is difficult for ordinary people to understand the relationship between soldiers and equipment.

Anything, if a person takes care of it for a long time and is devoted to feelings, it is almost difficult for people who don't understand it.

Of course, Zheng Yucheng remembered that when he brought the tank from the garrison regiment to study, Feng Guozhi stood desperately outside the regiment, and even forced Xie Kai to apologize fiercely because Xie Kai said that the thing was indistinguishable from the tractor...

"I gave 32 million to this target ship." Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai, fearing that Xie Kai would be dissatisfied with the high price he had given him.

"It's okay, Saudi Arabia gave 12 million U.S. dollars. I originally planned to use this money to upgrade the H2 that was previously leased to the Saudi Navy as a training ship for the future 055 Hundred Drive..." Xie Kai really didn't. I thought they would make this money.

Buying a second-hand ship like this from abroad, a new ship can't reach such a high price.

If Saudi Arabia does not require all weapons and equipment to remain on it, but just a hull as a target, it would be impossible to have such a high price.

To test the combat capability of 053H3 against a complete battleship, a target with a weapon system and a target without a weapon system are completely different.

Very often, heavily armed warships are attacked, even if it is not serious, the ammunition depot may be detonated...

Zheng Yucheng looked at Xie Kai in surprise.

I haven't thought about this issue yet. Seeing that Xie Kai has no objection, and there is no problem, "The officers and soldiers on the 102 ship, this time they will pick up the H3 that they ordered after being leased to Saudi Arabia..."

The 053H2 ship, which should have been delivered to the navy, was leased to the Saudi navy after the production of the warship ordered by Saudi Arabia just started.

The Navy used that money to order a new 053H3 from Hudong Shipyard, not to improve combat effectiveness. Although an integrated battleship such as 053H3 has certain air defense capabilities, anti-submarine, anti-ship, and strong ground attack capabilities, its ammunition reserves are small and its defense range is small.

The Navy's order is also to adapt to the new combat ships, training can be proficient in operation and master the combat mode of more complex warships.

After all, it is just a training ship.

Compared with the real 053H3, the tonnage of the improved ship from the 052 is much smaller.

Hudong Shipyard No. 1 slipway has already made complete preparations for aircraft carrier construction. After 404 took over, it invested a huge amount of money to transform it. The entire dock was transformed into a warship capable of building 100,000 tons or even larger freighters. There is no problem at all for the construction of a light aircraft carrier of just over 30,000 tons required by the Thai Navy.

The 500-ton gantry cranes on the berth are all brand-new. They were designed and built by Shanghai Port Machinery Co., Ltd. in cooperation with relevant domestic units. This was the purpose of constructing this aircraft carrier, especially the stepwise construction of the aircraft carrier. The machine requirements are even higher.

1000 tons, 1200 tons, and nowadays, China simply cannot manufacture them.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

Even the 650-ton class does not have the technology to build.

There is a 500-ton class, and the reason is no other reason. After the start of the previous 707 aircraft carrier project, these supporting projects were all launched.

It is also because there are so many supporting facilities that need to be improved. The construction cost of an aircraft carrier is beyond imagination. At the beginning, the country would directly dismount the aircraft carrier-high construction costs, high maintenance costs, high operating costs, supporting fleets, etc. It all needs to be done.

"Many of these supporting facilities were originally launched for the 707 aircraft carrier project, and most of them only have design drawings. We let them go down from the design drawings." Zheng Yucheng said triumphantly to Commander Liu, who looked at the supporting facilities around the slipway with joy.

Commander Liu nodded, with a pleased smile on his face, "You did a very good job. The decision to assign the Hudong factory to you was correct."

"Commander, we should let those comrades who were opposed to come to see today's Hudong Shipyard." Zheng Ming's smile was even more exaggerated.

He is watching the continuous improvement of the supporting facilities of Hudong Shipyard.

The state's investment in Hudong Shipyard was not small at the beginning, and the foundation was already good. Before 404 took over, Dock 2 could build a 35,000-ton freighter. After the 404 investment, nearly 400 million yuan was spent...

The first 100,000-ton mine ship is about to be delivered.

"Didn't you object the most?" Commander Liu said with a smile.

Zheng Ming was suddenly embarrassed.

"The laid keels are all on both sides of the berth. This time due to time constraints, they were divided into two parts, one is the bottom keel. After being welded by the welding workshop, they are assembled on the berth, and at the same time, they are designed to work in After the bottom keel is laid, the sections produced in the workshop are directly assembled upwards, just like building blocks..." Chief architect Zhou Zhenbai introduced to a group of bigwigs.

The Thais and the Argentines were also there, and they were shocked by these huge HAECOs.

Xie Kai didn't dare to go to the front to brush up on the sense of existence because he wanted to blow up the Anshan level. He just followed honestly while observing the reactions of the Argentines and Thais.

The Thais kept whispering to their colleagues around everything around them, and then they nodded their heads.

The Argentine has a look of envy.

China's technology is backward, and the whole world knows it.

But they don’t even have such backward technology like China. Shipyards are under great pressure to repair warships of thousands of tons, let alone build aircraft carriers of tens of thousands of tons as they are now.

"Chief, the time is coming, let's go over there first." Li Qingmin checked the time, and it was only more than ten minutes before the keel laying ceremony.

A longitudinal member that penetrates the bow post and stern post in the center of the large hull base is called the keel. This is an important structure that modern large ships cannot bypass. Otherwise, large ships will disintegrate while sailing on the sea because they are too large, heavy, and not strong enough...

With the continuous development of modern ship construction technology and the emergence of various powerful weapons used in warfare, the entire warship structure needs to be stronger.

The entire warship requires not only the keel at the bottom, but also the ribs on both sides of the hull. The deck also has stiffeners to strengthen the overall structure. This is a bit like a steel bar structure in the middle of concrete.

The keel at the bottom is related to the strength of the entire ship, and the ribs on both sides need to be built on it.

Therefore, laying the keel is more important than launching in some respects.

China's first warship of more than 10,000 tons class is not a pseudo warship like a supply ship, but a warship completely used for combat!

Prior to this, the tonnage of Chinese navy warships had not even broken through 5,000 tons.

So the leaders of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense and other departments were all present.

On the side of the slipway, a platform was grandly built. Behind the platform is the keel of the aircraft carrier that will be hoisted to the slipway for welding. On the keel of the aircraft carrier, there is a piece that reads "The ceremony of laying the keel of the Royal Princess of Thailand at Hudong Shipyard. "The banner.

Under the banner, a row of chairs was placed, and both Chinese and Thai high-level officials spoke and made speeches.

And beside the keel, there were firecrackers.

"Do this again?" Xie Kai was a little weird.

If it is considered to be a feudal superstition, then it will be troublesome.

There was no problem with doing this when the large press was in trial production.

"It's a happy picture. This is the first time we have built an aircraft carrier! Many people have no idea. The Thai side does not say it on the surface, but in fact it is worried that we have no experience in building." Zheng Yucheng sighed.

This is to give them courage.

Soon, the ceremony began.

There is no difference from the other ceremonies. Gu Baonong presided over the cooperation project between China and Thailand aircraft carrier, and then invited the Thai Chief of Staff, who may soon become the Minister of Defense, Shuntong Khlong Sompong to give a speech.

The chief of the general staff said a lot of China-Thailand friendship, and then the general manager Li Mingshan introduced the history of the shipyard...

In the end, Li Qingmin actually said a lot of nonsense, but it made people listen with enthusiasm.

Commander Liu of the Navy did not speak.

The first aircraft carrier China built was not for its own navy. Can the navy commander feel comfortable?

"The Royal Princess has laid down its keel, and it's officially started!"

"Papa Papa......" The sound of firecrackers rang at this moment.

The Chinese aircraft carrier, at this time, has changed history after all and started...

It had already moved to the top of the first keel, and the gantry crane that had been equipped began to move slowly...

Xie Kai looked at the thin steel cable on the gantry crane being stretched straight, and suddenly began to feel a bad feeling in his heart...
