C2774 Kilo-class Sub
"President Qin, welcome to our Ruby Design Bureau for an inspection." Spesky had a smile on his face. "Our Ruby Design Bureau is the pride of the entire Bear Country. Now... We have entered a new era, the submarine that we designed... Not only will it be used for its own use, but it will also create a new era of exports... Now, allow me to introduce our Type 877 submarine. "2
Qin Guan was even more impressed. Without wasting any time, he went straight to the point. They were here to poach people, but they immediately started to promote them. With such a designer leading the way, it was no wonder that the Ruby Design Bureau would stand out in this huge wave.
The Type 877 submarine was the Kilo-class submarine, the title of Kilo-class. That was the name given by Western Countries to this submarine, the Bear Country wouldn't call it that. In their codename, this was called Type 877. All of their submarines were named after this three-digit number.
Now, following Spesky's introduction, the design blueprint of this submarine was printed out on the projection machine.
"In the past, we used to design conventional diesel submarines with the appearance that made them easier to sail on water. As for this submarine, we used the same teardrop design as the nuclear submarine. It looks like the exterior is very round, and the internal capacity has been increased. At the same time, the underwater speed is also higher than the water speed." Spesky personally came to introduce it, because this submarine was his favorite work. It was his first work after becoming the chief designer here!
It had many innovations. For example, its appearance was similar to a nuclear submarine. The front rudder was at the head of the ship, and the tail was even more peculiar. There was a pair of water Horizontal Tail rudder and a vertical rudder at the bottom, but there was no vertical Rudder Surface at the top.
At the same time, compared to the previous submarines that used two-axis propulsion, this submarines used single-axis propulsion for the first time. This could reduce the noise and obtain better sound effects.
Many diesel submarines only had a few hundred tons of displacement and more than a thousand tons. They could be called large submarines. And now, their submarines... Floating displacement of 2300 tons, submarine displacement of more than 3,000 tons, it definitely belonged to the category of large diesel submarines. At the same time, it inherited the design of the Bear Country. Using a double shell structure could greatly increase its weight resistance.
The biggest Conventional Submarine in the Han Country right now was the support-level submarine bought from the Silver Country. The underwater drainage was only about 2000 tons, and the current Keiluo grade... It had already reached over 3000 tons of heaven-defying drainage. One should know that... Some small nuclear submarines are only about 3000 to 4000 tons, medium nuclear submarines... Only 5-6 thousand tons.
The second page was the detailed design of the submarines, and detailed blueprints could be seen. At the same time, Spesky continued his introduction. "This submarine of ours is divided into six watertight compartments. We looked back before, and the first section was the torpedo cabin. The second cabin area starts to be divided into two levels, and the upper level is the command room. The lower level was the battery room. The third area was the same, the upper level was the crew quarters and the kitchen. The lower level was the power room, and the entire cabin was the first level, which was the diesel generator cabin. Main propulsion generator cabin, backup generator cabin."
It can be said that the design of the entire submarine is quite reasonable. Just like most of the other diesel submarines, but it looks very organized and clear. It was very distinct. Arms Dealer, who was like Boris, also nodded his head repeatedly. Although he had never sold a diesel submarines before, he knew that they were very famous internationally. A few years ago, he had even sold a batch of it to the White Elephant Country's exit.
"President Qin, are you interested in our submarine?" After introducing all kinds of sound-proofing techniques, Spesky said to Qin Guan.
What did President Qin come here for? No matter what he did, he had to have an order if he came!
"The overall performance of this submarine is not bad." Qin Guan said, "But as long as it is a diesel submarine, there is an important problem that cannot be avoided."
"That's right. In terms of underwater cruising power, it cannot be compared to a nuclear submarine." When smart people spoke, there was no need to talk nonsense. They could get to the point in an instant.
A nuclear submarine, relying on its nuclear power system, has almost unlimited cruise power. It's just the physical limit of the submarines, but the diesel submarines are different. No matter how many batteries are stored inside, when they are all used up, therefore, most of the sailing conditions were for air pipes.
Many anti-submarine radars of helicopters searched for air pipes. Once they found one, they would launch attacks. This was the biggest drawback of normal diesel submarines.
However, it was absolutely impossible to let it have a long flight ability. It was also because of this reason that the Y Country eliminated the Conventional Submarine. The underwater forces were all nuclear submarines.
Qin Guan nodded. "Of course it can't be compared to a nuclear submarine. But as long as we think of a way, we can still greatly increase its underwater endurance. Even if it's increased to more than a week, it's still not bad."
"President Qin, you mean to say, an AI system?" Spesky asked Qin Guan.
Qin Guan nodded. "That's right. If this type of submarine can be equipped with an AI system, then we have the intention to purchase it. We can buy four of them in the first batch."
The regular power submarines were divided into two types of work. When sailing on the water or in the ventilation tube state, they would use diesel engines as fuel. At the same time, they would charge the batteries; when they were underwater, they would use batteries to power them. The batteries here were exactly the same as the batteries of the old Esper. Both were lead acid batteries, so it didn't store much energy. This way, the submarine will have to frequently start diesel engines to provide power. It wasn't good for stealth.
How to increase the submarine's underwater voyage time had always been the submarine designers' pursuit. This was the appearance of the AI system, which meant that it did not rely on air power devices.
When Spesky heard Qin Guan's words, he immediately frowned. In the past, there had never been such a phenomenon in the Bear Country. Whatever they said was what they said. They would never change it because of the buyer's opinion. Even if they were to export to tropical countries, their tanks would not be equipped with air conditioners. They would also be equipped with a heating system used in the cold. It was up to them whether they wanted it or not.
However, it was different now. They did not have that powerful country. They had to rely on their own abilities to sell their equipment. Now, if they wanted to sell their own submarines, they had to satisfy their users.
Especially since President Qin had always been a man of his word. Four normal powered submarines would allow their Ruby Design Bureau and the corresponding Shipyard to gain something! They must get this order.
But, the AI system, you said it was easy, was it that easy?
