Chapter 663 Designing an Air Defense Ship for Parthia(1/2)
After leaving the port, Xu Zhengyang finally spoke: "Will Mr. Qin really happen to what you said? Are we and Lao Ba the best friends?"
"Of course I don't want that to happen, but there are too many conspirators behind it, and there are always people who want to have bad intentions. However, we don't have to do it ourselves. As long as there is such a secret organization to help us eliminate these hidden dangers," Qin Tao said: "I think Habiba has this potential and can train him well in the future."
Xu Zhengyang nodded: "If it is a local person, it has nothing to do with us. Mr. Qin, your plan makes sense."
"It will take some time for the country to send warships here. Since we are here, of course we have to go to other countries." Qin Tao said: "Next, let's go to Abbas Port."
There are not only ports, but also shipyards, which were built by Mingzhou Group. The investment there is still a great guarantee of safety. Qin Tao of course has to go and see it, but in order to avoid people's eyes and ears, he has to do it secretly.
In recent years, Qin Tao has been busy with domestic projects and has rarely ever been active internationally. This time he has come out to see if there is any new business.
A huge business empire cannot stop expanding.
Abbas Shipyard.
Karim, Husseini...many people who knew Qin Tao came to welcome Qin Tao.
"Mr. Qin, welcome to Abbas Shipyard." Karim was the first to come up and shook hands with Qin Tao.
"Well, I'm also very happy. I've been busy with other things in recent years and haven't been here to visit. I wonder how our shipyard is developing now?"
"Mr. Qin, we are developing very well now. We have built several hundred thousand tons of oil tankers. In terms of warship construction, we have also built a number of catamaran missile boats. Now, this is the most modern and advanced industrial base in our country!" Karim introduced to Qin Tao.
"Well, your shipbuilding industry continues to develop, and it is the result of your independent efforts. Congratulations."
"Mr. Qin, I heard that your navy is coming to the Gulf of Aden this time?" Husseini asked.
"Yes, we have this plan and are currently in preparation."
"So, will you conduct a joint maritime exercise with us when you need it?"
Qin Tao quickly shook his head, how can that be done? Secret cooperation is one thing, and light is standing together, which is another thing, we can't get so close.
"Can't even attack pirates?"
"Everyone, on behalf of the East, I would like to thank you for your sincerity. However, we only have three warships. The escort mission is urgent and there is no time to hold military exercises. When we have the opportunity, we will discuss this matter again. On behalf of the Navy, I would like to thank you."
"Mr. Qin, are you worried?" Karim asked.
Qin Tao was a little strange. Something was wrong. Today, these people had a special attitude. They knew that they would not agree to such a project, and they actually wanted to propose it. They had a purpose!
"Since President Qin is in a dilemma, it's all right. However, for another thing, President Qin needs to help." Husseini said: "President Qin treats his friends very sincerely. As long as our request is reasonable, President Qin will definitely agree."
"Everyone, what are your goals? Since you treat me as a friend, just say it directly." Qin Tao said.
"Mr. Qin, we want your 052c destroyer." Karim spoke: "If you are not convenient to sell it to us, you can sell us drawings and spare parts to us and let us produce it in our own shipyard. No matter how high your price is, we can accept it."
It turns out that the drunkard is not about drinking!
The 052c destroyer is the second warship in the world equipped with four-sided phased array radar and vertical launch system. Now, the reputation of the Chinese ASCHS has spread all over the world. Some people envy, some people jealous, and some people want it.
The country of Anxi has money and can be purchased completely, but can it be sold in the East?
Even if it is 052b, it is impossible to sell it to the Ali Kingdom. Only the East will load the rotating phased array radar and four-sided small shields on it. If the Ali Kingdom has it, it must be the East's technology.
The other party knew that this was difficult, so he first used joint military exercises as a prelude. If he didn't agree, he would have to agree now, right?
"Everyone, your navy does not need large warships at all, right? You just need to block the bay here. Even you only need shore missiles to meet your needs. Once you build such a large warship, once you go to the battlefield, you will be a target for others!"
"Mr. Qin, that's why we need professional air defense ships with four-sided phased array radars, so that we can deal with threats from the sky." Karim said: "We cannot be limited to this small bay. We need to have greater development, and we also need to sail from ocean to protect our maritime routes."
When Karim said this, his eyes were full of energy.
"It's early. I'm frankly speaking, you don't have this ability now. Of course, if you have to build a large warship, I think it's enough to have a displacement of about 1,000 tons at this stage. This kind of thing has to be done step by step, and it's impossible to develop from a few hundred tons to a few thousand tons at once."
"About one thousand tons?" Husseini asked hesitantly: "Mr. Qin, please introduce it to us?"
"Now, you can produce anti-ship missiles similar to our Eagle Strike 82 on your own. You have the US Standard 1 missile on hand. I don't know if you have it. If it is distorted, then there will be air defense missiles. If you have it, you will have a helicopter platform at the tail, and the anti-submarine capability will be available. A thousand tons of warships are enough for you to walk sideways here."
What Qin Tao said was actually the Jamalan-class destroyer. This kind of destroyer was 94 meters long and 11 meters wide, with a full load displacement of 1,420 tons and a maximum speed of 30 knots.
Listening to these data, even a frigate is not as good as a frigate. The frigate in the East is already 4,000 tons. However, the Abdul-Sabre Kingdom is called a destroyer, and others will laugh at it.
Due to the small tonnage, the weapons of this destroyer are also very simple. The head of the ship is an Ar27 main gun, which is a 76mm gun imitation of Italy's Ottomelera 76mm gun; a triple-mounted Said 2 air defense missile, which is a ship-to-air missile imitating the US Standard 1 ship-to-air missile; a twin-mounted C802 anti-ship missile launcher, 2 20mm guns, 1 40mm gun, and 1 324mm torpedo launcher, carrying a Bell 214 anti-submarine helicopter, but only a helicopter deck, with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons, and there is no space to arrange a hangar.
Five of these destroyers were built, which was the most powerful of the Abdul Navy, but their reputation was not very good. One of them was sunk by a storm, and one of them launched a missile and sank one of their own ships.
Now, Anxu Kingdom is going to build warships, and Qin Tao first thought of this.
However, after hearing Qin Tao finish speaking, everyone was obviously dissatisfied.
"Mr. Qin, the performance of this kind of warship is too poor. What we need is an advanced warship with four-sided phased array radar!"
"Yes, Mr. Qin, as long as you offer a price, we can accept it no matter how expensive it is."
"Our Kah fighter project can be operated, let alone such warships? Mr. Qin, your Mingzhou Group originally built warships."
Everyone started to express their opinions with each word.
Qin Tao was also a little helpless.
Everyone is right.
Projects like J-31A, the world's second stealth aircraft, can be found to cooperate with them in the Rest Country. Why can't warships work?
Of course there are reasons. J-31 a is a self-developed project by Mingzhou Group. They first need to obtain funds to continue the research and development. The Anxiong Kingdom is the best target for money. Although there is Saudi Arabia behind it, it is just a icing on the cake. The Anxiong Kingdom is a timely help.
As for the warship project, the Navy made it tightened its belt to solve the key problems it faced. Therefore, it does not need the Intercession to intervene, and now it cannot be provided to the Intercession.
It is absolutely impossible for them to have big shields on four sides, but you can consider another kind of small shield on four sides?
The four-sided small shield is not only used by the East 052b, but other countries are also working on it!
The domestically produced 052c is a main destroyer that provides regional air defense capabilities in ocean navigation, while the so-called European air defense ships are essentially luxury frigates that emphasize low-altitude leak plugging capabilities. Therefore, many European air defense ships use the 052b solution, Israel is using it, and Asan is also using it. When the Abnorth Country is created, it is probably five years later. At that time, there will be four small shields on the high mast everywhere. Why is it said that it is a technology provided by the East? Is it not possible for the Abnorth Country to create it itself?
Thinking of this, Qin Tao finally had an idea.
"Okay, since you have this idea, I can roughly talk about the idea." Qin Tao said: "Find a drawing board and I'll roughly draw it."
"Since it is mainly air defense, the displacement is estimated to double. The target is set at 3,000 tons. For you, it is too difficult to build a warship that is too large at one time." Qin Tao began to introduce while drawing.
"From the bow of the ship, put a 76mm naval gun, and you will solve it yourself. Behind the naval gun, more than twenty vertical launch units can be placed, and the missiles are mainly imitations of the standard 1 missile."
As long as it is not the domestic Hongqi 16 and Haihongqi 9, others will not be able to deduct shit for Mingzhou Group because they do not have this thing.
"In the back, if you pursue shape, you can perform stealth design, recycle the upper layer to the inside, and arrange four-sided phased array radar at the top." Qin Tao continued to draw the bridge part.
Everyone opened their eyes wide.
Of course they saw that this warship is very similar to the 052b of the Small No. 1, and the small phased array radar on all sides, looks very eye-catching.
"No matter what great ideals you have, at present, your main navigation area is still the bay. Here, the ultra-low-altitude anti-ship missiles pose the greatest threat to you. Therefore, installing a small phased array radar on all four sides, with a detection distance of 200 kilometers, and a discovery distance of more than 50 kilometers for ultra-low-altitude flight targets is your best choice."
This compromise finally satisfies the people present.
"Mr. Qin, can you provide us with these radars?" Karim asked.
"Of course it's impossible. Don't count on us. You have to work hard on researching and developing yourself." Qin Tao said: "From now on, it takes five years to make it happen."
Self? We know how much we have! Everyone looked at each other and Qin Tao continued, "You can develop your own Kach fighter jets, let alone such radar."
Mr. Qin, we are all insiders, can we say so implicitly?
Everyone was filled with resentful eyes.
"In fact, the four-sided phased array radar is just a surface, and there is also a powerful combat command system inside to exert its power. I believe you can complete the research and development of such a system."
"Well, Mr. Qin, we will definitely do it. Is it using a Loongson processor?" Karim asked.
"Of course not. The processors used above are all defective products, and even the number has been polished off." Qin Tao said.
Everyone was relieved again.
"Okay, keep going backwards. Since full-time air defense, anti-ship capabilities are in a secondary position. Just arrange two dual-mounted launchers, which is the lightest, and there is only a helicopter take-off and landing platform at the tail."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Mr. Qin, what power does this kind of warship use?"
"It should be fine if you purchase marine diesel engines from Europe through special channels, right?"
"Yes, no problem. If you use the same design as the 054 frigate, you will definitely run to more than 30 quarters, right?"
The 054 frigate power system uses a unique full diesel power, two diesel engines at low speed and four at high speed. This allows the frigate to achieve a maximum speed of 27 knots. The same power can be put on a frigate of 3,000 tons, and it will definitely reach 30 knots.
This question is a pun, and the power of this warship is also powered by Dongfang Quanchai Power.
Qin Tao nodded: "No problem."
"Mr. Qin, we are very satisfied with the general design of this warship. Can we ask Mr. Qin to help us contact a design unit to design this warship? We pay the design fee according to international management. How much is it? Is 20 million enough?" Karim asked.
Twenty million is already the design fee for aircraft carriers. Now, designing such a 3,000-ton frigate is definitely not cheap.
"In recent years, international inflation has been happening, and the purchasing power of the US dollar has been declining. I think it will cost 30 million yuan in design fees." Husseini saw that Qin Tao did not respond and immediately spoke.
"No, 20 million is enough." Qin Tao said: "You can first argue my rough picture. After no problem, we will make detailed designs."
Anyway, the Anxi Kingdom relies on selling oil, and the US dollar has indeed depreciated, so this kind of warship has to be completely new, so Qin Tao generously asked for the 20 million yuan. His designers are all world-class, so the prices of course cannot be too cheap.
The design plan of this warship was decided in this way. There is still a lot of work to be done next. Only after the military of the Abnorth Kingdom demonstrated the design can the detailed design be officially entered.
During construction, the various accessories needed by the Rest Kingdom could also be transported through the East.
"Qin, we hope to rely on your transport aircraft to transport the various equipment we need in the future, and we will pay the freight." Karim said.
These devices are so important. God knows whether Americans will be targeting them in secret. The incident of Stars in the past few years is vivid in my mind.
