The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse
Chapter 16 The Blood Sail is upgraded again
The process of the Blood Sail devouring the Arcadia did not mean that a mouth suddenly grew on the Blood Sail and chewed up the Arcadia like a biscuit.
But as the devouring began, the entire Arcadia seemed to melt, integrating into the Blood Sail bit by bit like a stream of water.
As the Arcadia was swallowed up by the Blood Sail, the Golden Compass also appeared next to Chen Mo, and after opening it, a golden ship diagram popped up, which showed the three-dimensional view of the Blood Sail. projection.
Viewed from directly above, the Blood Sail's hull does not use the spindle-shaped hull like the Mutsu. Instead, it still uses part of the previous scissor-shaped hull design. It looks more like a narrow front and wide rear. Slender tapered shape.
As for the illegal buildings inherited from ijn, Chen Mo completely demolished them. The masts and flues were combined to adopt a design similar to the Kirov class. The bridge was lowered to ensure that there was enough space to install the radar. While waiting for the equipment, the height of the bridge was also lowered as much as possible.
At the same time, in order to reduce the radar reflection surface on the hull, Chen Mo made most of the parts as flat as possible to reduce the radar reflection area.
The layout of the main gun turrets is very strange, one in front and two in back, which makes the whole ship look a bit weird. After all, usually battleships are at the head of the enemy, and there is no such thing as Chen Mo who concentrates the main gun firepower on it. Stern design.
However, in order to free up some space on the front deck for future installation of a vertical launch system and reserved special purposes, Chen Mo only retained one main turret on the front deck.
As for the problem of insufficient firepower when facing the enemy on the perch, Chen Mo naturally considered it, and the solution to this problem was the muzzle of the axis gun reserved under the perch.
Here he plans to install a powerful magic cannon that is powerful enough to directly vaporize a battleship. However, the cannon is still under production, so only the muzzle is reserved.
In addition, the secondary guns and other large and small artillery pieces originally installed on the Mutsu were also adjusted and placed on both sides of the battleship for air defense, mine protection and close range response to enemies.
As for the stern part, Chen Mo originally reserved the seaplane catapult and hangar, but now that there is the Arcadia, this part can be used with the more advanced catapults carried on the Arcadia. aircraft and helicopters.
Of course, as the Bloodsail is further upgraded, the hangar will be adjusted, and the two grooves on the rear deck may be equipped with wave engines in the future.
As the Arcadia was swallowed up, some more operable options appeared on the Blood Sail's projection. A ball of golden liquid was suspended on the projection of the ship's hull. Chen Mo could use it as he wished. added to the Bloodsail.
All the designs and features on the Arcadia can be transferred to the Bloodsail.
The first thing Chen Mo transferred was naturally the power system on the Arcadia. After all, the Arcadia is a modern large-scale ocean-going cargo ship. Compared with the battleships during World War II, the power system is more advanced and the output power is greater. .
In particular, Chen Mo noticed that the Arcadia used a comprehensive all-electric propulsion system, which was undoubtedly much easier to use than the Mutsu's original power system.
Therefore, Chen Mo added these to the Blood Sail without hesitation and optimized the Blood Sail's power system.
In addition, there were only helicopter hangars and catapults on the Arcadia that Chen Mo installed on the tail of the Blood Sail. Other than that, he did not take any other parts from the Arcadia. .
As for the complete refrigeration system used to refrigerate survivors, Chen Mo only dismantled a small part of it and installed it in his own laboratory inside the Blood Sail.
Chen Mo doesn't need as many refrigeration cabins as two thousand sets. For him, keeping about a hundred sets is more than enough. After all, he doesn't have that many test items that need to be refrigerated.
And as a battleship, although the Blood Sail saves a lot of space inside because it does not need to accommodate the crew, the structure is still very compact, and there is not much extra space to waste.
In addition to these, after Arcadia's hull is devoured, the remaining parts can also be used to strengthen the Blood Sail, such as making the Blood Sail larger and longer.
However, Chen Mo felt that the size in front of him was enough, so he did not continue to increase the size of the Blood Sail, but only further improved its strength.
In Chen Mo's view, the current Blood Sail is already powerful enough, and there is no need to make further adjustments other than optimizing the ship type and acquiring more modern components and weapons to continue strengthening it.
To obtain modern components and weapons, the US military's aircraft carriers and warships, which were once extremely powerful but are now docked in ports and no one cares about them, are undoubtedly the best choice.
Whether it is the improvement of the hull material of the new shipbuilding steel or the advanced modern weapons on the US warships, it is a great enhancement to the Blood Sail.
The San Diego Naval Base, very close to Los Angeles, is the largest naval base of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. One-third of the U.S. Navy's warships use this place as its home port, and the U.S. military has deployed three aircraft carriers here.
For Chen Mo, this place is like a fragrant cake, attracting him to eat it.
So after letting the Blood Sail engulf the Arcadia, Chen Mo did not immediately disembark and chase Ada Wang and the others. Instead, he let the Blood Sail sail toward San Diego, intending to engulf another aircraft carrier and Ticondero. Plus or Arleigh Burke.
The history of the development of modern warfare also made Chen Mo clearly understand that aircraft carriers can do more things than battleships and are more powerful than battleships.
Therefore, the Blood Sail will definitely develop in the direction of an aircraft carrier in the future, but he does not really want the ship to become a pure aircraft carrier.
Because in Chen Mo's view, it is unlikely that the Blood Sail will be able to gather the ships needed for an entire aircraft carrier formation for a long time, so in most cases, it will operate as a single ship.
Therefore, retaining most of the battleship's combat effectiveness while adding the functions and attributes of an aircraft carrier to create a warship that has both the combat effectiveness of a battleship and the aircraft carrier function became Chen Mo's inevitable choice.
This may seem nonsense at first, but fortunately, in the history of human military development, such bizarre warships have indeed appeared.
For example, the aviation battleships developed by ijn during World War II, and the heavy-duty aircraft-carrying cruisers developed by the former Soviet Union during the development of aircraft carriers.
The former was too weird and Chen Mo didn't intend to consider it, but the latter was of great reference value to Chen Mo.
