life in the sky

While talking, the vehicle drove into the gate, and the guards with live ammunition saw the convoy approaching. Although they saw a major general officer sitting in the front row, they still checked Wu Qiang's ID carefully, and used the walkie-talkie to communicate with the inside of the institute. Got in touch before letting them in

VIP 840 Chapter [-] Aircraft Carrier Materials

The ten-storey office building of the research institute is extraordinarily grand. On one side of the building, there is a sign with black characters on a white background: "Shuanglong Shipbuilding Research Institute" is shining in the sun.

The executives of the research institute who were notified by the guards were already waiting in front of the door, led by a burly young man who was about the same age as Mu Guoxing.There was a bit of Jiang Haopei, the commander of the Anjiang Naval Base, between his eyebrows. Mu Guoxing concluded that this person was Jiang Hai, the director of the research institute.

Although Mu Guoxing and Jiang Hai had never met before, they had been friends with each other for a long time. When they met, they looked at each other and shook hands warmly.

The decoration in Jiang Hai's office is very ordinary, except for a large desk, there is a circle of black leather sofas, and even the floor is ordinary terrazzo.It's just a row of bookcases placed against the wall and a dozen or so beautifully crafted ship models placed on the shelf, showing the difference between the owner and government officials.

A female secretary in her 30s wearing black-rimmed glasses came over, skillfully made tea for the guest, politely gestured for tea, and then exited and closed the door gently.

Elder Zhong stood up, walked to the window, waved to Mu Guoxing and Wu Qiang, and the three of them looked out together.I saw a large living area on the back of the building. Just looking at the area of ​​this area, there are thousands of acres of land.Most of the living areas are duplex villas. Although it is winter and all kinds of plants have lost their green color, Mu Guoxing can also imagine how beautiful the environment of this place is in summer.

After the living area, there is another gate with a yellow cordon drawn on the gate, which shows that the security here is strict.Inside the gate are dozens of small five-story buildings, and further ahead are dark and tall mountains.

Jiang Hai pointed to the distance and briefly explained the overall deployment of the institute. After his explanation, Mu Guoxing knew that the dozens of five-story buildings were the various research rooms under the institute.A research laboratory is responsible for the research and development of a project, and they are not directly related to each other.

Mr. Zhong turned around and said with a smile: "I came here this time to see your progress. You must show your real guys right now, so that I and your big boss can take a look." .Your place affects my heart all the time, I can't see our aircraft carrier launch, even if I die, I can't close my eyes."

Jiang Hai didn't speak either. He went back and took out a CD from the safe, inserted it into the computer, and turned on the projector. A huge picture of an aircraft carrier immediately appeared on the opposite wall. Jiang Hai picked up the laser pointer and started his commentary.

The ship research institute was only built at the beginning of last year. While building, it paid great attention to recruiting excellent scientific research talents from all over the world with generous salaries.The Institute of Shipbuilding has now brought together more than 700 outstanding scientists from all over the world who are involved in various subjects of shipbuilding. It is not an exaggeration to describe this institute as a small United Nations.

Among the more than 700 scientists, there are also more than 100 well-known young and middle-aged scholars in our country.Last month, the Institute selected more than 200 fresh graduates from colleges and universities across the country, with the aim of speeding up the cultivation of my country's scientific research capabilities.

Scientists from all over the world also brought most of their research results and advanced scientific concepts. In just over a year, the scientific research institutes have made dozens of major technological breakthroughs, some Advanced technology has reached the leading position in the world.And scientific research institutes have also paid a huge price for these research results, and the bonuses paid to scientific researchers alone have reached more than 20 billion.

Jiang Hai clicked the mouse lightly, and the huge aircraft carrier image on the wall immediately decomposed into thousands of different components. Mr. Zhong looked at Jiang Hai suspiciously, and Jiang Hai said with a smile: "Grandpa Zhong, although an aircraft carrier is also a ship, it is also a ship. It is a very special ship. It has a special purpose, a special structure, and a special working environment. Therefore, having the technology to manufacture supertankers and cargo ships does not necessarily make aircraft carriers possible."

Mr. Zhong smiled: "I know this. If it is as simple as a [-]-ton ship, the whole world is not full of aircraft carriers, so I won't have to spend so much effort."

Jiang Hai smiled and said: "Manufacturing an aircraft carrier is a huge system engineering, and its complexity exceeds people's general imagination. It is as big as cutting-edge technology and the integrity of the product as a whole; as small as the arrangement of processes and procedures, tooling, measuring tools, The production of tools, as well as the personal spirit, culture, and technical quality of the workers involved in the manufacturing, and every small mistake in it may cause the entire project to fail. Therefore, aircraft carrier manufacturing requires a complete set of strict and scientific management thinking, management organizations, Management talent and proven, proven management experience.”

Although Mu Guoxing also knew that the manufacture of an aircraft carrier was a complicated project, he did not expect it to be so complicated. At this time, he was like a primary school student, listening to the teacher's lecture attentively.

The picture on the wall suddenly turned to the molecular formula of a material. Jiang Hai pointed at the molecular formula with a laser pointer and said: "The first job of an aircraft carrier is the selection of materials. The steel used for an aircraft carrier is determined by the working environment of the aircraft carrier. Therefore, Steel for aircraft carriers must be anti-magnetization, corrosion-resistant, high-temperature resistant, and impact-resistant. It should have high hardness, toughness, and excellent welding performance; while maintaining the above-mentioned excellent mechanical properties and processing properties, the proportion of the steel itself It can’t be too heavy, if you sink yourself to the bottom with your own weight, that’s absolutely impossible.”

Hearing this, Elder Zhong asked nervously: "Have we solved this problem now?"

Another huge steel part appeared on the picture on the wall. It can be seen that this part has been impacted by high-speed blasting.Mu Guoxing saw that after the impact of this huge steel piece, although it formed a huge concave shape, it was not broken down. At this time, he understood somewhat. the result of.

Jiang Hai said confidently: "I can now proudly say that we have solved this problem, thanks to several experts from the former Soviet Union. They have been studying this topic in China for more than ten years. Later, due to the division of their country and the recession of the economy, they could no longer support the huge expenses required for their scientific research. When these scientists came to the scientific research institute, they also brought their research materials, and we conducted further research on the basis of these materials. After hundreds of experiments, it finally succeeded."

At this time, Jiang Hai's laser bar pointed at the huge concave shape in the picture: "After the successful test of this special steel at the end of last year, we shipped it to the Beihai Fleet for testing. Great support."

Mr. Zhong nodded, meaning that he knew about it, so he heard Jiang Hai continue: "The result of the experiment was beyond our expectations. This piece of material was continuously hit by anti-ship missiles, cruise missiles, air-to-ship missiles and other weapons. , have not been able to penetrate it. Not only that, the toughness of this material is also very good, and warships made of this material will have the characteristics of light weight and large load capacity."

Mr. Zhong stood up, walked excitedly to the front of the screen, pointed to the screen and said, "So the warship made of this material is a veritable Iron King Kong?"

Jiang Hai smiled and said: "Grandpa Zhong, you can't say that now. Where there is a spear, there is a shield. This kind of material can only resist the attack of ordinary missiles. If it encounters depleted uranium armor-piercing bombs, it is still dangerous. Now we have solved it." This problem. By adding a layer of special material between the two layers of steel plates, it can resist the attacks of all conventional weapons in the world."

Jiang Hai paused for a moment and said with embarrassment: "We also paid a lot for this, and we paid them [-] million in bonuses alone."

Boss Zhong laughed: "That's right, there must be a brave man under a great reward. He has made such a great contribution, so he should be rewarded! This kind of material is a priceless treasure, and no amount of money can buy it."

VIP 840 Chapter [-] Systematic Engineering

The next goal is to add more flowers to 1980. Book friends who have flowers, please support, thank you! ! !

Wu Qiang kept three words in his line of business, and he said excitedly when he heard this: "Wouldn't it be better if such a good thing was used in tanks and armored vehicles? Others can't hit us, but we can hit others. This kind of material It really lives up to the name baby."

Jiang Hai said: "Commander Wu is right. This material is indeed a treasure, but its value is also very high. We made preliminary calculations. If one ton of this special marine steel is smelted, its value is estimated to be as high as today. half the price of silver."

"Is a ton of steel so expensive?" Wu Qiang blurted out a sentence. He looked at Mr. Zhong who was sitting there calmly, and then at Mu Guoxing who was very interested. Wu Qiang realized that he Reckless, really rare.In such a large country, not to mention that a ton of steel is only half of silver, even if it is all piled up with silver, it still has the financial resources.

But there are thousands of things to do at home, so we have to pick up the tight ones first. At present, building an aircraft carrier is the top priority. Naturally, we cannot invest our limited financial and material resources in the army.

This cannot be blamed on Wu Qiang. There is a reason why he thinks this way. The army of our country is originally an army of peasants. Millet and rifles are just the beginning of the army. It is relying on this to establish a new country and defeat The most fundamental reason for the backwardness of weapons and equipment is that our country was too poor.

Before the reform and opening up, although our country had a little heavy industry with the help of that big brother, because our country's basic industry is too weak, we can only rely on imitation in terms of military equipment.At that time, it had the largest number of troops in the world. Although it also had good combat effectiveness, everyone knew that it was filled by people.As for the navy and air force, it is tofu tied with a horse's tail, not to mention.

Leaving aside, let’s just talk about the self-defense counterattack. The whole army fought against such a small country. Although they won the victory in the end, they were not convinced. After all, the military equipment was too backward.

After the reform and opening up, after decades of keeping a low profile, our country's economic strength has developed rapidly, and the total economic volume has ranked second in the world.The two local wars launched by the United States in Afghanistan and Iraq also awakened us and made us realize that modern wars are high-tech wars.

Since then, our country has begun to pay more attention to the research and development of military equipment, and more and more funds are invested every year. With money, it will be easy to handle things. Through introduction, digestion and absorption, our military scientific research work will be more effective. developed by leaps and bounds.

Due to the confidentiality and particularity of military scientific research work, although the level of military scientific research has been greatly improved, under the current system, coupled with the blockade and embargo imposed on us by Western countries, our military equipment is still at a low level. a relatively low level.A certain military observer once said that the level of military equipment in our country is still 20 years behind that of the United States.

Mu Guoxing and Zhong Lao also realized the huge gap, and they also knew that if they lag behind, they will be beaten. So when Mu Guoxing proposed to build a military research institute, the grandfather and grandson hit it off immediately, relying on the strong support of Ssangyong Group With financial resources and the strong support of the central government, three military scientific research institutes were established. The purpose is to catch up with and surpass the advanced level of the world's military in a short period of time. Not to mention other things, just the construction of this ship research institute , Ssangyong Group invested [-] billion.With the support of strong funds and the temptation of high bonuses, top scientists from all over the world naturally spare no effort in the research of the disciplines they are responsible for, which is why they have achieved such great achievements in less than a year .

Everyone knows that an aircraft carrier is a steel behemoth, and the quality of the steel used for ships will directly affect the safety and service life of the aircraft carrier. In the final analysis, it is a question of whether it can win the war.Mu Guoxing felt that as long as we have researched high-quality aircraft carrier steel, we should use it no matter how expensive it is, and make it the most advanced aircraft carrier in the world.

A few people were thinking about it here, and Jiang Hai continued to say: "The aircraft carrier we designed is generally about the same size as the USS Kitty Hawk, with a length of 320 meters and a width of 77 meters. The total deck area is about three football fields. It is so big that it can carry more than 70 carrier-based aircraft of various types. The standard displacement of an aircraft carrier is [-] tons, and the full-load displacement is [-] tons, requiring a total of about [-] tons of steel."

As soon as Jiang Hai's words fell, several people quickly calculated in their hearts. According to the current price of silver on the market, it is about 5 yuan per ton, and each ton of steel is half of the price of silver. Steel is about 5000 yuan, and the value of steel alone for an aircraft carrier is close to 12 billion.This is just an empty shell, and with the addition of power, electronics, weapons and other systems, the expenditure will be huge.

With these, it can only be said that the aircraft carrier can be driven, but it has not yet formed combat effectiveness. If carrier-based aircraft are added, the price will be even more astronomical.

Mu Guoxing estimated in his mind that after an aircraft carrier is built, it will definitely not be able to take down if it is less than [-] to [-] billion.Naturally, Mu Guoxing will not take this little money very seriously. He has also discussed with several of his wives. Take it out to support the development of military industry.Judging from the current profitability of Ssangyong Group, in addition to leaving the necessary redevelopment funds, it is not difficult to spend [-] billion a year.

As for the maintenance of the aircraft carrier and other expenses, it can only be borne by the state.Now that the country has money, the national defense budget of several hundred billion a year, paying for the maintenance and operation of the aircraft carrier is not like pulling a hair out of a cow.

What Mu Guoxing wants to do is actually to use the name of the private sector to bear the cost of military scientific research for the country, reduce the expenditure on national defense, and use all the limited national defense expenditure on combat readiness training and upgrading of weapons.Doing so can also stop the mouths of some people in the West, lest they see that our military expenditure is too fast and say that we threaten them. After all, peaceful rise is our promise to the world.

Jiang Hai also said: "The manufacture of our aircraft carrier adopts the most advanced "jigsaw" construction technology so far. As the name suggests, the so-called "jigsaw" construction technology is like a jigsaw puzzle played by children. The whole aircraft carrier is divided into More and relatively independent units are manufactured separately. Then they are assembled together to form a complete hull. "Jigsaw puzzle" technology requires a more sophisticated management system and design, calculation, processing, and measurement technology .”

Elder Zhong nodded and asked, "Jiang Hai, I would like you to tell me clearly, what kind of level will the aircraft carrier designed by your research institute be able to reach after it is built?"

Jiang Hai said firmly: "Grandpa Zhong, I can say responsibly that the aircraft carrier we built is at the world's advanced level in terms of the power, maneuverability and protection capabilities of the ship alone, and in some places it is even ahead of others." The United States. As you know, an aircraft carrier is a very complicated and systematic project, and its combat effectiveness involves a wide range of areas, so it is not a problem that our ship research institute can solve."

Mr. Zhong said: "I understand what you said. This means that the aircraft carrier you built can only guarantee that it can move, run fast and operate stably, and will not be easily sunk. As for advanced radar and navigation, etc. For the electronic system, it depends on the Institute of Electronics. As for the carrier-based aircraft and weapon system, it depends on the Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics in Northwest China and other military scientific research departments in our country."

Mr. Zhong looked at his watch and stood up: "After your introduction just now, I have a preliminary understanding of the achievements you have made so far. Now, do you want us to go to the scene to have a look?"

Now according to the added chapters, there are still 10 flowers left, which book friends support me, thank you with a smile!

After passing through the living area and passing through a security check, they entered the research and development area.Looking at the past along the way, the planning of this research and development zone is very standardized, and the construction is also very modern.However, Mu Guoxing had some doubts in his mind at this time. Based on the full cost of these buildings, it can be completed with more than 100 billion yuan. In addition to the scientific research instruments of each research room, the total of these two items is at most [-]. The billion top broke the sky, where did the remaining [-] billion go?The aircraft carrier is such a big guy, where were they built?

The car continued to drive forward, and walked another five kilometers. When it came to the foot of the mountain, a huge iron gate appeared in front of everyone. There were two roads extending to both sides at the foot of the mountain.

A smaller iron door under the big iron door was slowly opened with a buzzing sound, and the vehicle drove in.Mu Guoxing was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him. The entire mountain was completely hollowed out, the cave was brightly lit, and two huge gantry cranes appeared in front of everyone.

He got off the car and changed to a battery car. Jiang Hai drove it himself, pointed to the gantry crane and said: "These two gantry cranes have a span of 120 meters and a lifting capacity of 40 tons. Don't underestimate this crane. The most critical equipment of an aircraft carrier, it can also be said that without this equipment, an aircraft carrier cannot be built. The United States has classified this technology as a top secret, and the blockade is very strict. More than [-] scientific researchers in our lifting equipment research room are abroad. Based on advanced science and technology, it took another half a year to research it, and it can be said that we are the second country with this kind of equipment besides the United States."
