After returning home, Fan Wubing and the old Cang Fan Heng mentioned the "passion of Guan Ganbuci's poisoning."

"This kind of thing" Fan Heng felt a little panting after hearing this.

It is not objective to say that the pastry chef has no responsibility. Even if you feel sad because your son jumped into the river, there is no need to retaliate against the society, right? Besides, you have used such a bad means of poisoning. Even if the director really has problems, you have to consider first whether he really needs to be responsible for this and how much responsibility he bears?

In short, impulse is a devil!

No matter what, even if this matter is exposed, as for the final judgment, it is no longer a matter of concern to them. Of course, the relevant departments will solve these matters, and they do not need to worry about them at all.

However, when mentioning the Kursk, Fan Heng said that he knew a little bit about this matter. After all, he is the direct person in charge of managing large state-owned enterprises, and military production is still under his leadership. In addition, Fan Heng had previously emerged from military-industrial enterprises and was engaged in torpedo manufacturing, so he naturally cared about strategic deterrent weapons such as nuclear submarines.

Standing at their leadership level, they obviously have much more exposure to than ordinary leading cadres.

"The military is indeed very anxious, and this is also a reason." Fan Heng said to his son Fan Wubing.

Although China's existing nuclear submarines are all performing missions and protecting national security and are the ultimate strategic nuclear deterrent force, compared with some other nuclear powers, they always feel that they are relatively backward, especially the noise problem has always been an insurmountable obstacle.

"Although the Americans' evaluation of Chinese nuclear submarines is a bit harsh, the actual situation is similar. Our submarines always need to remain silent on the seabed to avoid the other party's search. If this problem cannot be solved, we cannot establish our status as a great power." Fan Xiang said to Fan Wubing.

In other words, the noise of nuclear submarines must be controlled below 90 pounds to be close to ocean noise and will not be easily seen by enemy surveillance equipment, so that the prerequisite for free action is guaranteed.

.

Otherwise, as Americans said, China's nuclear submarines would have nowhere to hide in the oceans of the world.

What attracted Fan Heng the most was that the British have recently begun to build alert-class nuclear submarines.

According to the British Royal Navy submarine commander, in the years to come, the alert-class nuclear submarine will be unparalleled in the world; the alert-class nuclear submarine has the ability to make the Royal Navy the leading position in the world's navy and become the Manchester United football team in the submarine competition.

The construction of alert-class nuclear submarines surfaced during the fall of the British Navy. Since the end of the Cold War, Britain's defense funding has dropped significantly, and the scale of defense procurement has also shrunk significantly. Although many senior naval officials have clamored to protect the interests of their own and allies, the British Navy must be able to move to any region around the world outside the allies, it is an indisputable fact that the naval strength has shrunk. For the submarine forces of the Royal Navy, the seven Trafalgar-class attack nuclear submarines that have gradually joined the service since twenty years ago are still the main underwater strike force.

The cost of alert-class nuclear submarines is estimated to be more than one billion yuan. Such a sky-high price is an important reason for the ups and downs of the road. Ran Shi is also a powerful guarantee for the intelligent-class design requirements to truly achieve larger, stronger and more concealed design requirements.

The alert-class nuclear submarine has a length of 97 meters and an underwater displacement of 7,800 tons. Although it has a large submarine depth of 500 meters, it has 32 knots underwater. It has six torpedo tubes and can carry 38 swordfish heavy real torpedoes, Tomahawk cruise missiles and whaling fork anti-ship missiles. The weapon firepower is 50% higher than that of the Trafalgar-class nuclear submarines in service. Due to the installation of a water-squirting propulsion device, eliminating propeller noise brings unprecedented quiet performance and greatly improves its anti-reconnaissance capabilities.

Although the displacement is only half that of the US Russian-Russian-class nuclear submarine, there are at least one million parts in the alert-class nuclear submarine, and the structure is even more complex than the space shuttle. The highly automated alert-class nuclear submarine controlled by fully computers is a veritable underwater elves.

As the first stealth submarine in Britain, the outer layer of the Agility craft is laid with a thick rubber layer, which can effectively absorb most of the noise inside the submarine. The Royal Navy also formulated strict rules and regulations for the officers and soldiers on the boat. When the submarine is moving, sailors will never allow the items in their hands to fall on the floor. The officers and soldiers cannot even watch movies or TV without permission. Silence has become the key system for the submarine to perform their missions.

In fact, the noise produced by a smart-class nuclear submarine when sailing is weaker than the sound of a small dolphin, and the possibility of an enemy ship appearing is very high.

Of course, in order to adjust the life of the crew, the alert-class nuclear submarine is designed to prepare a small comfort zone for each crew member, and everyone can enjoy the movies alone through a plasma TV while wearing headphones.

At the end of last year, the Royal Navy spent 3.5 billion yuan to order three alert-class nuclear submarines, namely the alert, the ambush and the alert. The alert-class nuclear submarine is known as the largest, quietest, fastest and most powerful nuclear-powered attack submarine in the history of the British navy.

At the start-up ceremony of the alert-class nuclear submarine at the beginning of this year, Baron Simmons, the Procurement Secretary of the British Ministry of Defense, commented that the alert-class keel laying marks the entry of the Royal Navy's underwater power into the new century. At that time, many people disagree with their statements and believed that it was just a commendation on specific occasions. However, with the evolution of time, Simmons's statement was fully confirmed.

Of course, if a submarine wants to play its full role in naval combat, in addition to its advanced technical performance indicators, it must also be well equipped in many aspects such as weapon platforms, electronic reconnaissance systems. The Royal Navy hopes to take the alertness level as the leader to drive the comprehensive progress of its related technical facilities, and ultimately lay the software and hardware foundation for the British submarine force to be at the forefront of the world.

According to recent information, the British Ministry of Defense plans to invest 400 million British and obtain underwater weapons that can replace swordfish torpedoes in the next decade as one of the main combat weapons of submarines. The British Navy hopes to add more wings to the agility class by equipping with a more advanced new generation of torpedoes, making up for the lack of heavy torpedo capabilities in the future when dealing with littorm combat environments.

Considering that future maritime threats are more likely to come from terrorists, alert-class nuclear submarines are given unconsciousness to sit on the coast, and the sonar of the surveillance mobile phone communications is extremely cool. Even the potential English Channel can still lead a ship that leaves New York Harbor a thousand miles away.

Of course, this powerful monitoring function implementation technology is also strictly kept confidential by the Royal Navy.

Another thing to note is that Agility is also the first British submarine without a conventional periscope. Instead, it is replaced by two fiber-optic imaging transmission catheters equipped with a low-light camera and a thermal imager. They can suddenly appear on the water surface and complete a rotation within three seconds. In just three seconds, the captain can observe the surrounding situation at 360 degrees. Then these fiber tubes color the detected surrounding situation, and the crew can study and analyze these pictures in their spare time.

The Awareness’s heart nuclear reactor can work for 25 consecutive years, without adding fuel during this period. The nuclear submarine can sail when it is always maintained underwater for twenty knots. The air and water conversion chamber of the nuclear submarine can extract oxygen and drinking water from seawater through high-tech equipment. The carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the air inside the submarine will be effectively purified. This means that as long as the submarine has enough food and the sailors can withstand it psychologically, the Awareness’ nuclear submarine can stay underwater for twenty-five years, that is, a quarter of a century without surfaced.

"The UK has difficulty in developing large-scale ballistic missile defense systems on the ground due to its relatively small land area, so it has embarked on a different path of developing strategic nuclear submarine deterrence capabilities. Now it seems that they have achieved relatively fruitful results." Fan Heng said to his son Fan Wubing, "On the contrary, our situation is not optimistic. In many cases, the living conditions on nuclear submarines are quite poor. Considering the future development problems and the problem of being unable to display aircraft carriers in a short period of time, it is imperative to maintain advanced technology in nuclear submarine technology. The senior management has considered investing about 10 billion yuan in funds for independent research so that we can take out our own stabilizing needle." Fan Wubing immediately agreed, "Advanced nuclear submarines, Shanghai-based ballistic nuclear missiles and blizzard torpedoes, will inevitably become a submarine nuclear security guarantee platform with strong deterrence. As long as there are six nuclear submarines in service, China's position in the world will be more stable."

Fan Wubing is indeed quite welcome to this decision. In fact, the current nuclear submarine technology has become the killer steel between several nuclear powers. The confrontation at the bottom of the ocean is obviously more intense than on land. Although ordinary people cannot access this inside story, Fan Wubing learned through his own intelligence network that the conflicts between several nuclear powers at the bottom of the sea have never stopped in the past decade.

Just like the sinking of the Kursk, the real reason still needs to be verified. As long as the Russians do not explain the inside story, or the hostile side remains silent, then this matter can only continue to exist as a mystery. Until one day it is time to be revealed, everyone will suddenly realize that this is the case.

Fan Wubing had also contacted people from the Navy before and had met some officers and soldiers serving on nuclear submarines. According to the conditions on the boat at that time, if the seabed was carried for a few months, they would be pale after coming up. Obviously, this condition would cause serious physical harm to the crew. If the nuclear submarine technology can be further improved and the conditions are improved from all aspects, then this situation will be better.

some.

Fan Wubing always believed that when both technology and financial strength can meet the requirements, it is necessary to pay more attention to human situations. After all, these officers and soldiers are all living as the ultimate nuclear deterrent force of the entire country and should enjoy some better treatment.

And he also has reason to believe that domestic technicians can solve these problems. After all, the intelligence of Chinese people is not something that ordinary people can imagine. As long as you provide sufficient financial support and provide some guidance in the general direction, the best solution will not take long to come up with.

"Have the military or senior management considered introducing private capital in this regard?" Fan Wubing asked.

Fan Heng glanced at his son very strangely and asked, "You are also interested in this."

"As long as it is a money-making or cash-making technology, I am interested." Fan Wubing replied.

In fact, the country is still a bit unrelaxed in some aspects, just like the first private military-industry enterprise in China established by Fan Wubing, Southeast Heavy Industry Group, which achieved fruitful results soon after its completion. Because there are no common problems in state-owned enterprises, the work efficiency here is higher, and due to the high return system for scientific research and technical personnel, everyone is very enthusiastic about work. Any technological innovation or improvement may bring generous benefits to the staff. Under this reward system, all employees exuded very amazing creativity. Several projects that have not made breakthroughs in many years have come up with very perfect solutions at this time, which not only greatly improves the performance of the product, but also reduces the manufacturing costs for the company.

With the example of Southeast Heavy Industry Group in front of you, Fan Wubing has already tasted the sweetness. Since the Navy is also considering developing a new generation of nuclear submarine technology, Fan Wubing certainly hopes to participate, but the top leaders may not easily agree with their suggestions.

"This issue is still difficult to explain clearly now, but if we refer to the foreign military-industrial enterprise system, it may be feasible. Fan Heng is not sure about this matter and just pondered. "In that case, you can only be an investor or the owner of the enterprise, but non-independent research technology obviously has no right to interfere. Even independent research technology must strictly abide by confidentiality agreements. For sensitive technologies or products, they can only be sold to China, otherwise they will only be hidden forever."

Fan Wubing nodded, indicating that he knew this.

In fact, when he was in contact with arms companies such as Lockheed Martin and had traded, he already understood their operational methods. If the country could follow this model and relax military-industrial enterprises, it would release its strong potential in military-industrial production and quickly seize international strong players.

Fan Wubing is looking forward to this point.
