Chapter 891 The aircraft carrier Fahd is launched(1/2)

For Mingzhou Group, this year is a good harvest year, with many warships being launched intensively, reflecting their speed.

The aircraft carrier Fahd is also one of them.

The big dogs had enough financial resources, but not enough ability to protect themselves. They had to seek protection from the Western world, which even attracted opposition from many people, and they had to make concessions on many issues.

Therefore, they must develop. Only when they become stronger can they have enough ability to protect their wealth and stand up on many issues.

The aircraft carrier Fahd is a symbol of their strength!

Hearing that this aircraft carrier was about to be launched, the wealthy owners were very happy. A large group of people ran over and mobilized troops. However, when they arrived at the shipyard, the first thing they saw was the Dongfang which was being outfitted.

aircraft carrier.

That aircraft carrier is so big, so beautiful, so spectacular!

"President Qin, your aircraft carrier has reached the most advanced level in the world!" Salman said with emotion: "I heard that it also uses electromagnetic ejection, which is a technology that the West has not mastered."

"Well, the aircraft carrier we build must listen to the opinions of customers. Super aircraft carriers are not necessarily the most suitable for customers. After all, water depth, escorting warships, etc. will all have different needs for aircraft carriers." Qin Tao said: "It doesn't mean it's big or big.

The best is the best that suits you.”

"Yes, you are right." Salman nodded.

"Come here, everyone, come here and take a look at your aircraft carrier on the slipway. This aircraft carrier uses the most advanced design concept. Even the British are copying this design plan, which shows the advanced nature of our design.

"

"Yes, when we saw the design drawings of the British Queen, we knew that the empire on which the sun never sets has indeed declined. They don't even have their own design concepts and have to copy the East." Salman was very happy.

I agree with this statement.

When everyone came to the aircraft carrier Fahd, they were all shocked by this big guy.

Although the displacement of the oil tankers they had seen was much larger than this, the tanker's chubby figure could not make them feel shocked. The aircraft carrier in front of them was different. This was a war machine!

It uses high-strength steel. Even though it is spray-painted, you can still feel the texture is different from that of an oil tanker. The high and upturned jump deck on the left end of the front makes people feel majestic. There is also a

The large flight deck can be used as a parking area. This is its unique design and is the most suitable layout for ski jump takeoff and vertical landing!

Ejecting and taking off is too troublesome, and the pilot's experience is not good. This layout is the most suitable!

In the middle right part of the ship's hull is a ship island.

When participating in the defense exhibition, the Mingzhou Group had announced a high-end dual-ship island plan. However, the twin-ship islands were paired with gas turbines. When promoting it to big players, the Mingzhou Group did not have suitable gas turbines.

An ordinary boiler was used, so it was simplified to a single ship island plan, and the ship island was placed in the center, the engine was arranged below the view, and a tall all-electric propulsion system was used.

Later, the Mingzhou Group successfully developed a 40-megawatt gas turbine, and Qin Tao did not hesitate to promote the gas turbine plan to big companies. However, the ship island was not modified, so it became a single ship island plan.

Although the gas turbine requires a large intake and exhaust volume, the chimney is sufficient, so it can be used without any major modifications.

At this time, everyone followed Qin Tao's gaze and looked at the middle of the ship island. Qin Tao introduced it from the side: "When it comes to this ship island, the two-ship island and single-ship island plans each have their own advantages and disadvantages. The British

Using dual ship islands plagiarizes our plan, and it also means that they cannot solve the electromagnetic interference problem. After some consideration, we feel that a single ship island is more suitable for this aircraft carrier, because it can greatly reduce the deck area and allow for more parking.

Many carrier-based aircraft.”

"That's right, the British can only learn from the East. They can't innovate at all, and they can't learn thoroughly. To use an idiom from the East, it's called imitating the East." During this time, Salman actually learned some things from the East.

culture, and can also speak idioms.

"That's right, we are imitating others. In the world, our Mingzhou Group has the most advanced aircraft carrier manufacturing experience." Qin Tao said: "Others can only follow us, and we also have the most advanced technology. This ship

The aircraft carrier is equipped with two 40-megawatt gas turbines, which only our Mingzhou Group can develop. Moreover, we are also equipped with professional seawater desalination equipment on this aircraft carrier, which can produce 30 tons of fresh water every day when needed.

, if you have a water crisis, you can use this aircraft carrier as a fresh water factory at any time."

In fact, only aircraft carriers with boilers and steam catapults need fresh water the most. After all, it consumes a lot of fresh water. It is not cost-effective to rely on supply ships to supply it. It is better to make it yourself. American aircraft carriers have this kind of sea water.

Desalination equipment.

This aircraft carrier built for Gouda uses a gas turbine. It is said that there is no need to obtain fresh water. However, because it was originally used to burn boilers, this device is still retained and can play more roles.

Goudahu is a desert country and lacks fresh water.

"Yes, this aircraft carrier is not a simple aircraft carrier, but a multi-purpose ship. It is very important to solve the fresh water problem for our country when needed." Salman nodded.

Looking back, there is nothing to see. The conventional straight deck, the conventional hull layout, and of course the golden propeller driven by the transmission shaft at the tail can be seen.

(There is also a saying that the propeller is installed only after entering the water. Are you afraid of the impact when entering the water? If you don’t know how to work underwater, do you still have to enter the dock?)

"Everyone, it's almost time. Let's hold the launching ceremony first. Once it's towed to the outfitting dock, how about we step on it to visit?"

"Of course, everything will follow President Qin's orders," Salman said.

The familiar stage was built on the slipway here. When walking over, Salman suddenly thought of something: "Mr. Qin, isn't there your tempered glass on the outside of this stage?"

Qin Tao smiled: "It is absolutely safe in our country and there will be no accidents. We in the East are the safest country in the world."

Salman nodded and walked to the podium.

There were only a few invited reporters below. The flashlights were flashing continuously, taking rare photos one after another. Most of the people were workers from the shipyard, soldiers from big companies, technicians, etc. They looked at

When Salman came on stage, he immediately applauded.

"Two years ago, I was here to announce the start of construction of the Fahd aircraft carrier. Just two years later, this aircraft carrier is about to be launched. This is the speed of the East, and this is the strength of the Mingzhou Group! We see that,

Both are 40,000-ton aircraft carriers. The French Charles de Gaulle cut its first steel plate in 1987 and launched it in 1994. It took eight years! Through this aircraft carrier, we have seen the great progress of the East in the shipbuilding industry.

I am also confident in the development of the East!”

Salman looked down, looking full of energy.

"Moreover, before this aircraft carrier is launched, a lot of equipment has been installed, including the most critical engine." Salman continued: "We believe that we will be able to usher in sea trials at this time next year, and at this time the year after next,

We can usher in the commissioning of aircraft carriers, this is Eastern Speed!"

"Here, I would like to thank Mingzhou Group for its contribution to our country's national defense. I also believe that our relationship with the East will be closer, because the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence of the East are truly resolved with a responsible attitude

The approach to world problems is the most fair and reasonable way, and we are also willing to become good friends with the East."

Salman did not take the speech script and spoke completely impromptu. After saying this, Salman finally took the last step: "Now, I announce that the Fahd has officially been launched!"

As Salman spoke, he pressed the button on the stage and the familiar procedure began. The hanging wine bottles began to fly down and hit the bow of the warship. Champagne foam splashed and the surrounding fireworks began to bloom.

Get into the water!

The huge hull began to slowly move backwards and entered the river behind it, splashing countless water splashes. Amid the applause of everyone, the aircraft carrier Fahd was officially launched.

"Come on, let's go to the outfitting dock and wait." Salman was still not satisfied.

With the help of the tugboat, the aircraft carrier Fahd arrived at the outfitting dock and was next to the 002 aircraft carrier. This can better show the difference in size between the two aircraft carriers. The Fahd is obviously one size smaller, but if it is compared with the

Compared with a frigate being outfitted, it is much larger.

After stopping, everyone stepped onto the aircraft carrier.

The deck has only been painted with primer, and various marking lines have not been sprayed. Standing on it, Salman was very excited: "I think it is completely possible to play a football on this!"

"Of course, the sailors can not only play football, but also have a barbecue banquet." Qin Tao said: "Using the exhaust flame of the engine to barbecue the meat has a very special taste that people will never forget."

"Yes, we look forward to that time coming as soon as possible. Now, let's go down and take a look at the engine compartment first?"

"sure."

Going down from the ship island, you come all the way to the engine room. Two huge gas turbines occupy more than half of the space, and there are two diesel engines in the other space.

Whether it is a gas turbine or a diesel engine, there is no long transmission shaft, but it is directly connected to the cylindrical generator at the back. The huge generator looks very spectacular, with a few square words sprayed on it: Golden Sun Motor Company.

"This is the first aircraft carrier to use all-electric propulsion, and it will usher in a new era." Qin Tao said: "From now on, you can just use it and leave the maintenance work to us."

With the life attitude of big dog owners, they are definitely not willing to do hard work. Of course, they can't do this kind of maintenance work well. It is better to hire Asians to do the maintenance. They are not short of money anyway.

Salman nodded: "Of course, it would be better if you could provide us with some personnel to work in the engine room, with preferential treatment."

"Well, our maintenance and service on it are two different concepts, which is probably awkward. However, you have a good relationship with Lao Ba. You can find some Lao Ba people to help, and we can train Lao Ba."

Lao Ba has elite troops and capable technical personnel, but they have no money. They are complementary to the big business owners. Not to mention the engineers and even carrier-based aircraft pilots, Lao Ba can afford them. Anyway, the big business owners have many planes.

There are few pilots, so both sides have complementary advantages.

Salman nodded again.

After coming out of the engine room, everyone continued to the ship island, looking at the empty ship island and imagining what it would look like after the outfitting was completed.

"We will arrange a special control console here with many large screens and complete digital and information operations." Qin Tao said: "At the same time, as the flagship of your navy, this warship also has the ability to command other warships to fight.

Capability. At that time, the entire fleet can be integrated through data links. For safety reasons, in addition to installing a GPS navigation system, our Beidou navigation terminal will also be installed to avoid losing the chain at critical times."

Salman nodded: "Yes, our fleet is highly informatized, but there will never be any accidents due to the intervention of some external forces. Fortunately, Dongfang can provide a complete set of systems."

The technology in the East is developing so fast that even Europe has to cooperate to build the Galileo satellite. The East has developed an advanced satellite navigation system by themselves. This system has covered the Middle East and can also

for their military service.

"As an aircraft carrier, its main combat power relies on carrier-based aircraft. After careful layout, its deck can carry thirty carrier-based aircraft, and its hangar can park twenty more, and it can carry up to fifty carrier-based aircraft.

The attack capability is very strong." Qin Tao continued: "We have already launched the tilt-rotor aircraft project. When this project is developed, we can also develop a tilt-rotor early warning aircraft. By then, you will not only be able to use land-based C-

130 early warning aircraft, and can also use powerful carrier-based early warning aircraft."

The big dogs have a lot of money, so they can fool around a little more. They not only ordered a large number of fourth-generation stealth aircraft, but also ordered early warning aircraft. At that time, in order to match their system, they specially used the C-130 as the airframe platform and developed

A medium-sized early warning aircraft.
