Chapter 280 I'll Give You an Umbrella, Too
Ye Zhou on the aircraft carrier naturally couldn't see the scene where the shell hit the target in the distance, but he was still shocked by the huge flame and smoke produced by the ion ablation of the electromagnetic gun on the 055D.

Under the reflection of such majestic and wanton flames, the entire 055D [-]-ton body looks a little thin.

What surprised him the most was the rate of fire. According to the information he had seen before, the maximum rate of fire of the electromagnetic guns in Ugly Country was only 1-3 rounds per minute, but the rate of fire of the gun in front of him was obviously already More than 5 rounds.

And judging from the real-time live images sent back by the front-end Wudetection-3, the accuracy of this gun is also frighteningly high.

At a distance of [-] kilometers, the diameter of the impact point area is less than five meters—and these errors are most likely caused by the influence of wind speed and humidity. The electromagnetic gun itself is almost the ultimate.

If this kind of error is calculated in a smaller unit, it is roughly equivalent to the error of each shot within a kilometer of not exceeding the size of a coin. Even the most advanced sniper rifle in the world can't do it. Such precision.

Of course, it is common sense in the military field that guns are more accurate than guns, but being able to achieve this level is unique in the world.

After the last small island out of the water was sunk, the electromagnetic gun drill finally came to an end, and Ye Zhou and Ma Weiming finally stepped onto the deck of the 055D through a helicopter.

All the high-level commanders of the ship, including the gunners of the electromagnetic guns, had lined up on the deck to greet them. After seeing the two get off the helicopter, everyone gave a military salute in unison.

The two raised their hands in return, and then Ma Weiming stepped forward and patted the gunner Zhang Shiquan on the shoulder and said:

"That's fine, young man, it's very accurate!"

Zhang Shiquan smiled a little embarrassedly, and replied:
"Reporting to the leader is not accurate enough! In the future, we will continue to hone our skills, train while fighting, and dare to fight."

"Hey, hey, okay, don't say these stereotypes! Today is not a formal review, so relax!"

"Yes! Leader!"

Zhang Shiquan's posture was still straight, Ma Weiming smiled helplessly, and beckoned Ye Zhou to go over.

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is an important contributor to the successful boarding of our electromagnetic gun. It can even be said to be the most important contributor. Because of the principle of confidentiality, I cannot disclose his name to you. I hope you forget about it.”

"However, I want each of you to shake his hand and remember what this moment feels like."

"In the future, every time you conquer a sea area, you must remember that it is this hand that supports you behind your back."

Ye Zhou looked serious. He walked up to the officers and soldiers lined up, starting from the lowest rank and standing at the end, and shook hands one by one to salute.

No one spoke, and the sea breeze slowly blew away the last gunpowder smoke on the deck. At this moment, the world was clear.

According to the arrangement of the drill, after the 055D completed the electromagnetic gun test firing drill, a series of weapon maintenance and repair and emergency fault handling drills will be carried out, but Ye Zhou did not participate any more, but followed Ma Weiming to Yongxia Island to visit the newly launched Construction of the laser anti-missile system.

He originally thought that this system would have a reduced version on the 055D, but Ma Weiming told him that with the current size of the 055D, there is no room for the laser anti-missile system after the conventional naval guns and electromagnetic secondary guns are accommodated. To board the laser anti-missile, you must wait for the next model 055D to adjust the hull structure and layout, remove some redundant anti-missile modules, and make room for the laser anti-missile.

Accompanied by the captain of No. 002 aircraft carrier, the two watched the fortress under construction, which was far beyond Ye Zhou's imagination in terms of size and defense.

".So, the fortress we saw just now is actually an integrated offensive and defensive fortress, which contains both a super-power electromagnetic gun system, as well as laser anti-missile and conventional anti-missile systems."

"According to its design concept, it will exist as an iconic firepower unit. The anti-aircraft firepower deployment is equivalent to 20 055D ships, radiating the sea area within a radius of 600 kilometers, and responding to all battle situations in the sea area."

"In order to achieve this goal, the defense of this fortress is designed to be extremely thick, which can withstand the impact of ground penetrating projectiles with a penetration depth of at least 12 meters."

"If there was a war one day, this fort would be a prime target for the enemy - it's a tortoise shell, to be honest."

"It can be fought and defended, it is difficult to destroy, but it cannot be left alone."

After listening to Captain 002's introduction, Ye Zhou nodded.

He can fully understand this strategy. This is the combined effect of the rabbit's lack of firepower phobia and the miser's talent. They don't want to pursue any flashy visual effects, but only consider how to use the least money to achieve the greatest value. Firepower projection capability.

Based on this principle, the fortress system becomes the best choice.

Build dozens of distributed fortresses along the coast, each with several electromagnetic guns, several laser anti-missile systems, one or two hundred fortress air defense missiles with a range of one hundred kilometers, and then get a few near-anti-aircraft guns, and repair them several meters thick. The reinforced concrete is lined with a half-meter-thick ordinary steel plate. One such fortress is estimated to be as strong as a hundred F35s.

The point is that the cost of a single project of this kind of fortress is estimated to be several hundred million. If the enemy wants to take down this fortress, it is conservatively estimated that it will cost hundreds of battle axes.

These hundreds of Tomahawks could have knocked down an airport, killed 20 or [-] J-[-]s, and cost China tens of billions, but now, these missiles must all be poured into this airport, which costs almost no money to use reinforced concrete. On the built fortress, it can be regarded as forcing out a cost-effective ratio that is as low as the limit.

More importantly, this fortress system is different from the so-called Maginot Line. Due to the continuous acceleration of technological iteration, the firepower projection range of one fortress can be connected to another to ensure that it is within its coverage. Don't even think about flying over it easily.

So, this is not the Maginot Line, but the Great Wall at Sea.

The Great Wall at Sea in the new era.

Well, compared with shield ships and aircraft carriers, there is almost no money. Rounding up, it is roughly equal to the Great Wall of the Sea given away for nothing.

This is the change brought about by technological progress.

Ye Zhou sighed with emotion, and Ma Weiming noticed his expression, and asked with some amusement:

"Why, do you think we are too rascals?"

"That's not it."

Ye Zhou quickly shook his head.

"They can engage in anti-missile encirclement strategies, can't we build sea forts? I'm just sighing, although I think the fort system is very cheap, but it's all based on our decades of continuous operation of these islands of."

"If land reclamation fails, the sea fortress system is simply nonsense."

"So, national defense is really not a matter of a small group of people. From cement, to steel, to infrastructure technology, to the Sky Whale, people from all walks of life are unknowingly participating in it, even with this Yongxia Island Similarly, the owner who sells sweet water over there is actually making a contribution.”

Ma Weiming nodded and replied:
"Yes. Our nation is like this. When there are not so many chanting slogans, most people are doing their own things in a down-to-earth manner. But as long as they do their own things well, naturally, we will be more The great pursuit has come true.”

During the conversation, several people had already left the area where the fort was being built and came to the road beside the beach. They walked along the road all the way, and the topic extended from the fort, chatting leisurely about some less important interesting things.

The sun was blazing, and the general affairs staff brought a parasol. Captain 002 opened the umbrella and lifted it to the top of Ma Weiming himself.

Seeing this scene, Ye Zhou smiled.

He recalled that during a visit that year, the Navy had already personally opened an umbrella for him, and such a scene happened again today.

Probably this is the so-called respect.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou took the umbrella handed over by the general clerk, and when he was about to open it, he found a shadow covering his head.

He raised his head in surprise, and met Ma Weiming's gentle gaze.

"Today, I'll give you an umbrella too."
