Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

After hanging up the phone with Xu Dafei, Xu Huasheng directly turned on his computer, opened the professional design software and started to get busy.

Xu Huasheng was going to design a large ship, a large ship with a displacement of more than 40,000 tons. As for how much more, let the outside world guess.

This time, the warship that Xu Huasheng was going to take out would also be very famous in the future, that is, China's future famous 076 amphibious assault ship.

Although this ship is called an amphibious assault ship, other countries prefer to call it a drone carrier. Because China installed an electromagnetic catapult on this ship to launch heavy drones, its combat effectiveness is quite violent. In fact, this thing can not only launch drones, but also standard aircraft carrier-based aircraft can be launched and landed.

To put it bluntly, this ship can be used as a medium-sized aircraft carrier, but China will have its own 100,000-ton aircraft carrier in the future, so there is no need to make such a small aircraft carrier. So this ship was made into a drone carrier, and many stealth drones take off and land on it, and its combat effectiveness is also quite violent.

However, when Xu Huasheng was designing it, he did not install an electromagnetic catapult system on the ship. After all, this ship is mainly sold to foreign countries, and the electromagnetic catapult technology cannot be leaked.

This ship is a large amphibious attack button, with an external deck design, just like an aircraft carrier, which increases the deck area and the carrying capacity of carrier-based aircraft.

Xu Huasheng also optimized the internal design. Directly remove the dock, remove the amphibious capability of the amphibious assault ship, and design this ship into a real aircraft carrier.

What amphibious attack capability does an aircraft carrier need? As an aircraft carrier, its only purpose is to carry more fighter jets. Whether this ship is sold to Pakistan or other countries, they will not be willing to use this ship as an amphibious ship, but use this ship as an aircraft carrier.

Xu Huasheng began to get busy and began to modify 076 according to his own ideas. The idea is very simple, try to make this ship as cheap as possible, cheap to use, and simple to repair and maintain.

Not only that, in order to reduce costs and facilitate maintenance. Xu Huasheng even replaced the gas turbine. He directly replaced it with a diesel engine.

Although the diesel engine is not as good as the gas turbine in performance and not as advanced as the gas turbine. But the diesel engine is easy to maintain, strong and durable, and cheap.

What Xu Huasheng has to do is to make this ship cheap enough, only cheap can make dumplings.

The number of carrier-based aircraft on board is relatively small, so what about five ships, ten ships. This thing is much cheaper than an aircraft carrier. The money to build a large aircraft carrier can build several of this thing.

But a large aircraft carrier may not be able to beat several such ships, not to mention that many countries cannot afford large aircraft carriers, but this thing can bite the bullet and buy one back.

With such a ship as the core, building a small aircraft carrier formation can also beat the navies of many countries in the world.

Not to mention ordinary countries, even the United Kingdom, the United States and Russia among the five permanent members dare to fight hard.

After all, the full load displacement of this ship is about 50,000 tons. In terms of displacement, this ship's displacement is stronger than the French nuclear-powered aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle that will be in service in the future.

The displacement of Russia's current Kuznetsov aircraft carrier is less than 50,000 tons.

The displacement is large enough and there are enough carrier-based aircraft. Under Xu Huasheng's design, the carrier-based aircraft lineup of this amphibious landing ship is very powerful.

This ship can accommodate 32 S-14C fighters that can take off and land vertically, two early warning aircraft converted from Z-26 helicopters, four anti-submarine helicopters and search and rescue helicopters at the same time.

In terms of this combat lineup, if this ship is fully equipped, in this era, except for the US aircraft carrier, this ship can't beat it, and he dares to fight against the aircraft carriers of all other countries.

Not only that, the service life of this ship is also relatively long. Now it can carry third-generation fighters, and in the future it can directly carry fourth-generation stealth fighters that can take off and land vertically.

For example, if Pakistan gets two of these things back, it can buy stealth fighters that can take off and land vertically from China in the future. If India does not have fourth-generation aircraft at that time, Pakistan can fight India with just these two ships.

After all, the combat effectiveness of fourth-generation aircraft is not comparable to that of third-generation aircraft. Now Saxo Aviation has developed third-generation fighters, and what they need to do next is to develop fourth-generation stealth fighters, like the F35, which is a single-engine stealth fighter that can take off and land vertically.

Moreover, this aircraft will mainly be exported in the future. As for the stealth fighters used by China itself, they are more advanced and powerful twin-engine stealth fighters, even carrier-based aircraft are twin-engine medium-sized stealth fighters.

Saxo Aviation's positioning of its fighter productsVery clear. That is, it is a foreign trade product. Its performance is one level lower than that of China's own products, but it is not inferior to foreign products of the same period, and it is cost-effective. The main focus in the future is to grab a living in the international military trade market.

Xu Huasheng got busy and constantly improved the design of this warship.

This medium-sized aircraft carrier with a full load displacement of 50,000 tons and a powerful third-generation fighter that can take off and land vertically, Xu Huasheng really can't find a reason why Pakistan would refuse.

Whether it is an aircraft carrier or a third-generation aircraft, these are what Pakistan wants very much. Although Pakistan bought some third-generation fighter F16s from the United States before, the United States directly froze the F16 transaction because of the problem of nuclear weapons in the past few years.

Not only can some of the F16s that have been produced not be delivered to Pakistan, but even the money that Pakistan has spent cannot be recovered.

This period can be said to be the most difficult time for the Pakistani Air Force. Because the Indian Air Force has more and more advanced fighters, and it is becoming more and more difficult for Pakistan to obtain advanced fighters.

In the past, China wanted to help but couldn't, after all, it was also a weak point in this regard.

But now it is different. It is impossible to sell the J-10 fighter to Pakistan in a short time. But Saxo Aviation's S-14 can be sold to Pakistan. And there is no limit on the quantity. You can get as many as you want. The price is cheaper than Pakistan buying F16.

At the same time, the combat effectiveness of S-14 is better than F16. It is cheap, has good performance, is unlimited, and is a product of China, the iron brother. This is simply a good thing to send a pillow when you are sleepy.

Pakistan and China have a good relationship and are called Pakistan Iron. Although the relationship between countries is maintained by interests. But from the perspective of the relationship between the two countries in the next few decades, Pakistan is really a good friend of China.

At the same time, Pakistan can also greatly contain India, so the stronger Pakistan is, the less pressure on China. Properly increasing Pakistan's strength will do more good than harm to China.
