C2386 Future Aircraft Carrier Planning

The Earth Effect Aircraft has a huge use. Its weight can be compared to a ship. And its speed could also be compared to a plane. Qin Guan could naturally see its future. That was why he spared no effort in advancing the research and development of this Earth Effect Aircraft. Now... It was already late at night when Qin Guan finished his meeting.0

The experts of Bear Country had gone to rest, but Qin Guan still hadn't rested. Taking advantage of the fact that it was late at night and the quietest time, Elder Pann had a long talk with him.

"President Qin, until now, the higher-ups have decided that the aircraft carrier project must be carried out." Elder Pann said.

Qin Guan nodded. "Yes, we have been waiting for this day for a long time."

"However, it is not easy to build an aircraft carrier. It is a huge project in the country. In the past, we decided to get on the horse a few times because we did not have enough ability and gave up." Elder Pann said.

The Elder Pann in front of him was a pragmatic person. He led the research and development of the destroyer 051 with one hand. As technology continued to develop, the new destroyer project... It had all come from his hands, bit by bit. Elder Pann had witnessed the development of the era. He also had a higher sense of purpose.

If they wanted to build a great country's navy, they had to have a great country's Aircraft Carrier Formation. Now, they had finally decided to take this path. However, there was still knowledge in this path.

"We have also dismantled aircraft carriers a few times, but those aircraft carriers belong to the eliminated aircraft carriers of During World War II. To us, it doesn't mean much to use as a reference." Elder Pann said, "Up until now, how should we design the modern aircraft carriers? We are still blind. "

In the past, they bought the Melbourne from Sheep Back Country and the two dismantled aircraft carriers from Y Country. However, these aircraft carriers were outdated and did not have the value to repair them, so they did not have much use for reference.

" Yeah, it's still okay. Now the experts finally stopped talking about small-sized aircraft carriers. " Qin Guan said.

For a long time, there was a trend of small aircraft carriers. With the development of vertical aircraft carriers, aircraft carriers could also be miniaturized. This way, the cost of construction and usage would be low, and the losses incurred in battle would be reduced. It was liked by some experts.

However, the naval battle in Donkey Island had already proven that this was only an imaginary idea. It was unrealistic. A small aircraft carrier was a useless thing. Without a normal Fixed Wing, the Shipboard aircraft would not be able to effectively fight for the rights to control the air. If they could not fight for the right to control the air, then they would not have the initiative to fight in the sea.

Only large aircraft carriers could operate the Fixed Wing's Shipboard aircraft. Only large aircraft carriers had enough space to control it. Small aircraft carriers were not suitable.

Then, how big would it be? Was it a medium aircraft carrier that was forty to fifty thousand tons, or a large aircraft carrier that was over sixty thousand tons?

"For an aircraft carrier, the larger the construction scale, the easier it is to operate. However, the cost and technical difficulty of construction will also soar. " Qin Guan said, "So, I think that our first aircraft carrier... It is most suitable to have about fifty to sixty thousand tons of drainage. When the time comes... As our construction experience continues to increase, we can continue to increase the drainage. Our final goal is still to build a hundred thousand tons of super Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier. "

In terms of the power of aircraft carriers, very few chose to use the gas turbine for destroyers. Although this type of power is advanced, to drive an aircraft carrier of tens of thousands of tons... There would still be a lack of power, and the steam turbine's power would be sufficient. Thus, using the steam turbine is the most appropriate. Then... To produce steam, one had to boil a boiler, a heavy oil boiler and an atomic furnace. It all depended on how he chose.

The technical difficulty of a heavy oil boiler was small. After all, this was the most ancient technology. It had been very mature since World War One and World War Two, so there was no big problem. However, it needed to burn heavy oil. For aircraft carriers, a large amount of Shipboard aircraft would also need to burn oil. An aircraft carrier in battle would need to resupply oil once every five or six days. It was obviously not good for the aircraft carrier's combat ability. If they used nuclear power, then they would be mainly loaded with aviation fuel, and the supply could be extended to once every half a month.

For nuclear power, the power density of the nuclear reactors that could drive aircraft carriers was also very high, which was different from the reactors of submarines.

When the people of Chicken Country built the Dai Gao Le aircraft carrier, for the sake of simplicity, they directly brought up the reactors of their own nuclear submarines. What was the actual effect? This aircraft carrier was the one with the lowest speed in Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier, and it was even inconvenient to eject Shipboard aircraft!

To build an aircraft carrier, there had to be a variety of technological breakthroughs. The route that Qin Guan was talking about was also very clear. First, we'll start with the regular power, which is fifty to sixty thousand tons of displacement. In the future... Then they would start with a displacement of about 100,000 tons, which would be a super aircraft carrier that used nuclear power.

When Qin Guan said this, Elder Pann's eyes were filled with longing. "In other words, there will be more than one aircraft carrier in the future?"

"Of course. In order to protect our ocean rights, we need at least six aircraft carriers. Of course, this does not include the useless things that we have modified."

They had also planned to modify aircraft carriers. Now that Qin Guan had said so, Elder Pann thought that it was referring to an Iowa class battleship for modification. In fact, of course, Qin Guan was referring to something else, as well as the aircraft carriers in the Bear Country. They were all his belongings, the Varyag in the Bear Country. He would definitely get his hands on it, but this aircraft carrier... After modifying it, it would be better to use it as an aircraft carrier training ship. Because the number of Shipboard aircraft was not enough. Such a large aircraft carrier... It could only carry around 20 or so Shipboard aircraft because there were huge Anti-ship Missile under the deck in front of them. Because it involved the force of the impact, it was not possible to disassemble them and turn them into a hangar. It was as terrifying as a renovation house destroying a heavy beam.

The Varyag was not suitable. If it was the next Varyag, the Uriyangnovsk would be more or less the same.

Their aircraft carriers had to follow the western aircraft carrier route. And according to Qin Guan's plan, Elder Pann could lead the team. After the initial design, Qin Guan did not plan to directly take out the Kitty Hawk and other blueprints. After all, the country had only made up its mind to start the construction. It would take a few more years to go. During this period of time, they could let Elder Pann and the others figure it out first. This might be more effective.

As the two of them chatted, the Elementary Scholar gently walked up to them.

"President Qin!" The Elementary Scholar was very excited to see Qin Guan.

"En, it's good that you're here. In the future, we'll be the same as before."

"Yes." The scholar said, saying, "The reason I'm here this time is to report the news to you. Our plan is going smoothly. The Y Country has already decided to take out the Iowa!"
