2970: C2970 Change of Plans

C2970 Change of Plans

"Yes, we want to see the future." Qin Guan said, "We need to take one step at a time and walk towards the navy."

"Then, should we discuss the construction plan for the new generation of aircraft carriers?" General Zhang said.

On their second aircraft carrier, under everyone's gaze, Qin Guan finally began to think.

In fact, General Zhang was also paying attention to this. The Aircraft Carrier Formation in the navy was pulled up by Qin Guan. So, how they were going to develop in the future, of course, would have to listen to Qin Guan's plan.

Qin Guan had previously said that the navy would have an aerial assault ship, more ten thousand tonnes of destroyers, and so on. However, the development of the next aircraft carrier was still very general.

Now, facing the old people in the shipbuilding industry, what Qin Guan wanted to say was definitely the most detailed plan.

"Now, our warship design center must have already started to design the Amphibian assault ship, right?" Qin Guan said to Director Pann.

In fact, Qin Guan had already given the corresponding Design to the warship design center. Therefore, they only needed to digest it and improve it to complete the design.

"That's right. It has been completed. When it was designed, we have already considered the plan to carry our vertical landing fighter aircraft." Director Pann said, "So, next, we can start building this kind of amphibious assault ship."

"Amphibian assault ship?" It was also Makarov's first time hearing about this project, so he immediately thought about it carefully.

"That's right. If we build this kind of warship first, we can walk a complete way to build a large warship. After all, it has always been repairing and mending." Makarov agreed with this plan. The Amphibian assault warship was a lower class warship compared to the aircraft carrier. At the same time, it can also train the technology of Shipyard. It is a qualified plan step by step.

The Bear Country also went like this. From the helicopter aircraft carrier to the Kiev class, they gradually accumulated experience and gained the ability to later on. Unfortunately, after the collapse of the Bear Country, their dream of building warships was shattered.

"This Amphibian assault warship needs at least tens of thousands of tons. Only then will it be meaningful."

Hearing his words, Qin Guan smiled. "Our plan is forty thousand tons."

Forty thousand tons? Makarov's eyes immediately revealed a surprised look. It was actually forty thousand tons. Even Kiev grade was only forty thousand tons. If Han Country first developed a forty thousand ton siege ship, naturally, it would be the best.

Especially since Han Country had already developed an invisible vertical landing fighter aircraft. It was simply tailor-made for this kind of amphibious assault ship. Before Han people did anything, he had already done all kinds of preparations. It made people sigh with emotion. Looking at Bear Country, when they were dealing with Kiev, it was only when it started forging the Jacques that it started forging 38. In the end, after so many years of hard work, the Jacques 38 had not matured yet. Later, the Jacques 38 had gone ashore. Kiev Class became a freak that could only carry helicopters.

The preparation of the Han people was really too thorough.

"President Qin, I have an idea." At this moment, Director Pann spoke again.

Compared to Makarov, Director Pann knew more. On one hand, it was Makarov who was focused on his work and didn't care about anything else. On the other hand, Makarov was an outsider after all. Therefore... He would never ask about things that he shouldn't have. Now, since everyone was talking about it together, Makarov would do it more often. After all, there were many things that he didn't know about. At most, he would give suggestions after hearing it. Of course, most of it was shock.

For example, the forty thousand ton siege ship was enough to shock Makarov. Of course, what was even more shocking was what happened later on.

"What do you think?" Qin Guan asked Director Pann.

"Since we have the technology reserves on the ship, ___ said. Then... When we continue to build the next aircraft carrier, we already have enough experience... So, I feel that we don't need to rebuild a regular aircraft carrier. It's better to go directly to nuclear power."

When Qin Guan held the meeting, he planned to build the aircraft carrier after the meeting. Then the nuclear power plan seemed to be a step-by-step plan. However, there was an obvious shortcoming. An aircraft carrier of such a navy... It became a complete hodgepodge.

There was once the Small Eagle aircraft carrier modified from Midway Island, and Varyag, who had a regular power glider taking off. There were aircraft carriers with nuclear power, gliders, and ejectors, and two newly built ones. One conventional power, one nuclear power, so... It was simply a hodgepodge.

Doing this would also bring a lot of logistical problems to the navy. Therefore, since Director Pann suggested it now, we might as well use nuclear power.

Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier, he did not need to consume fuel. He could use all the space to load the aviation fuel needed for the Shipboard aircraft. This was very important for maintaining a continuous battle.

Looking at Qin Guan's expression, Director Pann continued, "This Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier can also be used for the full-power propulsion plan that we have developed recently. With the help of the electromagnetic launchers and electromagnetic blocks to land, it can become the leading aircraft carrier."

Full power propulsion?

Hearing Director Pann's words, Qin Guan was also surprised. "Our technology has already broken through?"

Ordinary power systems all passed through the transmission axis. The ones that drove the propellers could be diesel engines and gas turbines. It can also be a steam wheel, but in the next era... It was about to enter the all-power propulsion plan.

Full power propulsion, that is, the power system is all used to produce electricity. And then propulsion through electricity. That way, since the distribution of electricity was the most convenient... So it can be combined and coordinated... And, the equipment on the warship... The electricity used is getting more and more.2

Qin Guan had said this before, but after that, he didn't pay any more attention to it. After all, it would take another twenty to thirty years for this technology to truly mature. Now, Director Pann had said that he wanted this technique. How could Qin Guan not be surprised?

"That's right. I have already broken through." Director Pann said, "In the ten thousand tons drive plan that you proposed for us, we plan to use the full-power propulsion plan. This way, after the 10,000-ton drive is built, we will try the sea. We found the problem during the process of building the Amphibian landing ship. So, by the time we start building the aircraft carrier, the full power propulsion has already been tested on the 10,000-ton drive. It just so happens to be used on the aircraft carrier."

"Full power propulsion?" Makarov was still mumbling this word. Then, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in his eyes. "You already have this technology?"

He was also shocked.

Han Country had the most advanced technology in this era.
