Chapter 911 Technical Consultation to Mingzhou Group

"Haha, it's so happy, it's so happy!" Guan Tong said excitedly: "If these guys want to come and touch us, we have to see if they have this ability!"

"Yeah, we are no longer the era when we were bullied by others." Yang Dawei said: "Only when our technology becomes stronger can we let them suffer. If they want to punish us with trumped-up charges, they will eventually find out Throw a stone at your own feet."

"Hmph, they have to repay our debt obediently in the end." Guan Tong said: "However, they have really declined. They are building in sections, and there are still accuracy problems. What is going on?"

Speaking of this, Guan Tong's eyes sparkled.

"I don't know about this." Yang Dawei quickly shook his head: "I don't know what's going on either. In short, their segmented construction is carried out in different shipyards, so there will always be problems, it's just a matter of chance. "

Some things cannot be said.

When Lao Maozi’s Black Sea Shipyard built the aircraft carrier, it used the method of segmented construction. In order to improve the quality of the construction, they used astronomical tools such as sextants to make the quality of the segmented construction meet the standard. When the British built it , They used GPS and other equipment to reduce the error. They used military-grade ones, and their accuracy was several orders of magnitude higher than civilian ones.

However, they would not know that when the keel was being laid, a professional GPS jammer appeared next to it, which interfered with their measurement. As a result, there was an error in the laying of the keel. Of course, the error was too small, and they did not I realized that when I continued to build upwards, I would not bother with it. It was not until the sections were connected that I suddenly discovered the problem. Unfortunately, there was no countermeasure.

The best way is to rebuild, but the cost is definitely not acceptable to them.

"I'm in a good mood today, I need a few drinks, Lao Yang, let's go, let's go to the cafeteria together!"

Guan Tong invited Yang Dawei to drink, and Yang Dawei readily accepted. The two of them got drunk after drinking one cup after another in the cafeteria.

Yang Dawei fell asleep until the next morning.It wasn't until he woke up that he realized that a guest had been waiting for him for several hours.After he washed his face and woke up, he received the guests and found that it was one of the people who came to claim yesterday.

"Mr. Yang, I am Lambert, the person in charge of Rosyth Shipyard." Lambert introduced himself: "We are all in the same industry, and there may be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. Now, I would like to invite you Do yourself a favor and we'll pay you."

"Is it impossible to connect due to welding errors?" Yang Dawei asked.

"Yes, in short, there is an error, which makes it impossible to complete the docking. Is there anything you can do?"

"That depends on what kind of error it is, how big it is, and different errors have different processing methods." Yang Dawei said: "You don't want to show me the design drawings, so I can't give you advice. .”

"I have a cross-sectional drawing here." Lambert took out the drawing, anyway, it was just a cross-sectional drawing, and it was shown to the outside during transportation, which is not considered a leak.

"The shell of our hull can be aligned, but the keel inside is ten millimeters away."

"This can all be related to the lifting problem. What's the matter with the lifting? If the shell can be aligned, but the inside is not good, it is clearly a construction problem."

Lambert looked a little embarrassed: "Gong Yang, this is all caused by Sir Benjamin. We followed him here and were forced. Now, we still have to solve the problem. Can you give us some suggestions? We can pay you for technical consulting.”

Yang Dawei shook his head: "I have nothing to do. In this case, the only way is to rebuild."

"Rebuilding is too wasteful, and the superiors will not agree. Is there a low-cost method?"

Will Orientals offer advice?It might be difficult. After all, the construction of this queen-class aircraft carrier is to match the standards of the East, and now he came to the East for technical consultation. Even Lambert felt a little ashamed.

However, he also knows that the East has the richest construction experience, and now only the East has this technology.

Yang Dawei frowned, thought for a while, and then nodded: "Yes."

"any solution?"

"You can keep the upper part, cut off the lower part, rebuild the lower part, and then assemble and weld the two together, which is equivalent to dismantling this giant segment into two segments."

Lambert's eyes lit up. Why didn't he think of such a simple plan?If I just thought about replacing the keel before, I had to turn this section over, but I never thought about cutting it in half. It would be much easier to replace it this way!Cut as little as possible of the lower part as possible, so the part to rebuild will be much smaller!

"However, this is also risky." Yang Dawei continued: "After all, when designing, the entire section was connected together. Now that the section is cut apart, if the above section cannot be properly allocated during the lifting process, it may really be broken. Deformation. This requires a lot of calculations. You probably don’t have this technology, so you should hire us. We can provide you with the most reasonable lifting plan for the technical consultation fee of 1000 million pounds to avoid deformation of the upper half.”

It was originally a whole, but now it is cut into two parts. If the first half wants to be welded to the newly built lower half, it has to be hoisted. This is not easy. If there is no plan in advance, the upper half may be deformed. , After all, after cutting, the strength of many places has changed.

"Okay, I will report your request to Sir Benjamin." Lambert said: "Mr. Yang, thank you for providing us with this plan."

Lambert went back contentedly. Looking at his leaving back, Yang Dawei whispered two words: "Silly hat."

Back at the hotel, Lambert spoke out Yang Dawei's suggestion, Carol thought about it, then nodded: "Yes, this method is indeed feasible! Let's try to reduce the amount of construction in the second half, which can greatly reduce the cost of new construction .”

Benjamin gritted his teeth: "This is the only way to do it now!"

When I came to the East, although I didn't succeed in touching porcelain, I found a solution anyway, which can reduce a lot of costs.

"Then should we ask Mingzhou Group to provide us with technical advice?" Lambert asked.

"Of course not, why would we need their technical advice?" Benjamin said: "Can't we solve these problems ourselves? 1000 million pounds is enough for us to complete this damn modification task! How can we directly hand over the money to Mingzhou Group, let them earn our money!"

"However, if we improve ourselves, what if there is another problem?"

"How is it possible? We have already discovered the problem, and how could we make the same mistake." Benjamin said, "Is it possible that our Great Britain can't compare with Mingzhou Group? Carol, do you have confidence?"

Carol thought for a moment, then nodded: "We will learn from this first closing and avoid similar accidents."

"Okay, then go back, quickly modify it, and check other sections by the way. I hope the same problem won't occur." Benjamin said.

This time the sections were closed with great fanfare, and it turned out to be a joke. I don't know what the media will say, whether they will be juxtaposed with Ah San. In short, now they have no choice but to complete it as soon as possible!

Lambert was still a little worried, but he also knew that it was absolutely impossible for Benjamin to bow his head to Dongfang and ask Dongfang's technical force for help.Moreover, it is definitely impossible to hand over all the information of the segment to the Orientals.

So, forget it.

Just as Benjamin and his party returned in a hurry, Yang Dawei also returned to Mingzhou Shipyard.

During this period of time, Qin Tao has been staying at the Mingzhou Shipyard. After all, once the mooring experiment of the aircraft carrier starts, it will be very close to the first sea trial.During this time, Qin Tao has been busy in the shipyard, preparing for the first sea trial of the 002 aircraft carrier.

When Yang Dawei went to find Qin Tao, he was also in the newly renovated captain's room on the island of the 002 aircraft carrier. Yang Dawei reported these to Qin Tao.

"The British will definitely not ask us for technical support. In this way, when they build the lower half, they find that the upper half has been deformed and cannot be connected, and the upper half has to be rebuilt." Qin Tao said: "Although You can't stop the Queen-class aircraft carrier program, but you can significantly delay it."

"Yeah, I've videotaped the entire meeting at that time. If they want to claim compensation, then we will have more evidence. It's their own incompetence, so it has nothing to do with us." Yang Dawei said.

"Don't worry about this matter, just wait for it to slowly ferment, and then quickly build our offshore oil and gas aircraft carrier."

"Ah."

Yang Dawei left, and Qin Tao stepped onto the nautical bridge with brisk steps. The facilities here have been fully installed, and the first batch of sailors who received them are adapting to the environment here. One of the middle-aged officers, after meeting Qin Tao, , greeted immediately.

"President Qin! Thank you for building this super warship for us!"

"Well, Captain Zhang, congratulations, you have stood out from many competitors and become the first captain of this aircraft carrier."

Li Yan is the captain of the 001 aircraft carrier, and Zhang Zhen has become the captain of the 002 aircraft carrier. The two have been good friends for more than ten years. Thinking about this journey, they are also very emotional.

"Yeah, I guess I'm also the only aircraft carrier captain who is not a pilot. When our 003 aircraft carrier enters service, he must be a professional carrier-based aircraft pilot as the captain." Zhang Zhen sighed.

Li Yan is from the pilot captain class, but he flies helicopters, while Zhang Zhen has no flying experience. With the development of the navy's aircraft carrier power, the first batch of carrier-based aircraft pilots has grown up, and Wang Wei and other outstanding talents have emerged. Among them, there will definitely be the No.1 captain who is a true carrier-based fixed-wing pilot.

"That's right, our first batch of carrier-based aircraft pilots are all good." Qin Tao said: "When our 002 aircraft carrier enters service, will a large number of pilots also have to transfer to our 002 aircraft carrier?"

"Yes." Zhang Zhen nodded: "Our 001 aircraft carrier has undertaken more carrier-based aircraft pilot training tasks. So far, we have trained three batches, and the number of carrier-based aircraft pilots who can take off and land on the aircraft carrier has reached More than 80 people. When our 002 aircraft carrier is put into service, they will turn around and quickly make our 002 aircraft carrier combat effective. By the way, I have already asked Wang Wei to come over and become our carrier-based air wing captain."

Qin Tao is very happy with Wang Wei's growth. He has always been very optimistic about Wang Wei. Now Wang Wei has not let him down. He has become the captain of the carrier-based air wing. In the future, he will definitely be promoted to captain.

However, he remembered another person.

"Where's Delano?"

At the beginning, under Qin Tao's flickering, Delano and others came to Dongfang to help Dongfang train fighter pilots. It can be said that without Delano's help, Dongfang's first aircraft carrier was groping on its own, and I am afraid that it would take many detours , Now that the 002 aircraft carrier already exists, Draenor should have many requests, right?
"We originally wanted to hire Delano as a special advisor to our aircraft carrier, but Delano refused. He insisted on being an ordinary pilot, at most a small captain. However, considering his style, we finally I still agreed to his request." Zhang Zhen said: "We have formed a special second carrier-based aircraft wing for the 002 aircraft carrier, and Delano is temporarily serving as a small captain of the J-32 carrier-based aircraft brigade. A total of four J-32 carrier-based aircraft."

"You guys are really bold." Qin Tao said, "Aren't you afraid that he will cause trouble?"

"Draenor has officially joined our army, so he has to obey our discipline. We have made an agreement. If he dares to violate the command of his superiors and act without authorization, he will lose the opportunity to fly a carrier-based aircraft forever." Zhang Zhen said : "Now, Draenor already knows that the J-32 carrier-based aircraft is just a transition, and a heavy-duty fourth-generation stealth aircraft will usher in our aircraft carrier. He will never give up this opportunity for a short while. Of course , The superiors also consider our rigid style, and hope that the addition of Delano will make our style more aggressive."

The West has always paid attention to individual heroism, and even many officers are proud of disobeying the orders of their superiors. Western pilots are often free and undisciplined. However, their method also has a certain positive meaning. After all, air combat is changing rapidly, and it is not enough to always listen to the guidance of the ground. Yes, pilots have to be empowered to be more proactive.Now, the official joining of Draenor is to bring fresh blood to the naval aviation.

"Well, Delano can really bring out a group of unruly pilots." Qin Tao nodded: "I'm really looking forward to it. After this aircraft carrier is put into service, they will create new things on our aircraft carrier." What a miracle."

"Soon, as long as the sea trial, they will come as the first batch of carrier-based aircraft pilots to explore the most suitable take-off and landing routes for this aircraft carrier." Zhang Zhen said, "I wonder when the sea trial will start?"

"Tomorrow." A voice came from outside.

Makarov's face was full of excitement: "The mooring experiment has been completed, and the outfitting work has also been completed. This aircraft carrier is already in full condition, and it will be ready for sea trials tomorrow."

Through the porthole, Qin Tao looked at the deck below: "Since we are going to have sea trials, when will our sheds be demolished?"

"Tonight," Makarov said.

Since the installation of the catapult, the shed has been on the deck, and the shed was brought with it when it was launched, and the outfitting was still carried. When the sea trial, the shed will finally be removed!
Qin Tao's heart burst of excitement, demolished the shed, let the West show envy, come on, our aircraft carrier technology is leading the world!

The Yankee's electromagnetic catapult has not yet been developed. Although the Ford-class aircraft carrier has been pre-researched for many years, construction has not officially started yet, and the first ship has not been named Ford. The aircraft carrier of the East wants to lead the world trend!
"Okay, then I will come together tonight to help dismantle the shed." Qin Tao was very excited.

When it was first built, Qin Tao was busy all over the world and didn't participate much. Now he is restricted in freedom and it is inconvenient to go abroad. He stays here to watch the progress of the aircraft carrier construction every day, and looks forward to the sea trials every day. Finally, he waited for this day.

However, he still did not dismantle the shed.

In the afternoon, Wang Wei, Delano and others came.

"Report, Wang Wei, captain of the carrier air wing, reports for duty!"

"J-32 Fighter Squad Captain Wild Dog is here to report!" Draenor is still not used to saying his name. He always likes to report his nickname. When it comes to Draenor, few people probably know it. After all, Draenor's Identity is still sensitive, but when it comes to wild dogs, they are well-known, and the entire aviation unit knows it.

"Welcome, I finally caught up with the first sea trial."

Qin Tao was confused: "Captain Zhang, our first sea trial is mainly to test the performance of the engine and the hull. We have no plans to test the carrier-based aircraft yet. What are they doing here so early?"

What else can I do? Of course I can’t wait. Zhang Zhen knew it in his heart, but it was inconvenient to say it like this. After thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Qin, they also need to familiarize themselves with the deck in advance so that they can land in the future. They will participate in the whole process." For the sea trial work, contact the aircraft carrier in advance, and when the sea trial is over and it is finalized for service, our carrier-based aircraft units will be able to come up directly."

Qin Tao nodded and agreed with this statement: "Since we are here, let's have a good chat. We haven't seen each other for a long time. You must be very nervous, right?"

"Qin, our Huangdi Village base has been equipped with a J-[-] flight simulator. Does this aircraft also have a carrier version?" Delano said excitedly to Qin Tao: "I have flown it many times. This fighter is really powerful, our aircraft carrier still needs to have heavy aircraft, I am very interested in this aircraft."

"Draenor, this plane is our top secret. As a trustworthy person, you have come into contact with these things in advance, so you must pay attention to the discipline of secrecy." Qin Tao pushed back directly.
