Romanian Eagle

Chapter 657 Visit (Part 2)

General Chen, please this way.

An officer introduced Chen Shaokuan in English. This is the largest naval shipyard in our country, Varna, which can build three battleships at the same time. Its largest dock is 300 meters long and 50 meters wide, and it can build warships of up to 60,000 tons. But at present we cannot build such large warships. , because it's such a waste.

Chen Shaokuan listened enviously to the introduction of the naval officer. The Republic of China could not even build a 60,000-ton warship, even a thousand-ton cruiser.

After introducing the dock, the officer pointed to a steel monster that was about to be outfitting. This is my country's latest battleship Vlad, and its 406-caliber artillery can deal with all the battleships in the world. This is also the crystallization of my country's shipbuilding industry.

Looking at the outfitting steel behemoth on the side, there are 9 giant cannons that can hold one person, and Chen Shaokuan's eyes are straight. If such sea monsters appeared in East Asia, no one would be their opponent. Even the Nagato-class battleship, which Japan should be proud of, cannot be its opponent.

Not to mention, the speed is also far superior to Nagato by a large margin. Needless to say, the advantage of speed in naval battles.

After introducing the industrial crystal battleship, the naval officer pointed to a smaller battleship docked in the distance. This is our country's heavy cruiser Cortenu, and its top speed of 34.5 knots is also capable of performing almost all tasks of the Navy.

This is the latest Romanian heavy cruiser. Compared with the previous heavy cruiser, the biggest change of this battleship is to wait for the enhancement in armor and speed. Of course, what makes it so balanced is that it exceeds the standard in tonnage.

Compared with the standard displacement of the previous Brebisa of 11,000 tons, the standard displacement of the Coltenu reached 13,500 tons, and the full load reached 15,850 tons. More excessive than the severely over-standard Deutsche-class.

What makes Romania so unscrupulous is the arrival of the Washington Naval Treaty. Italy also withdrew from the naval treaty after Japan refused to renew it, marking the end of the naval holiday. Romania, of course, will no longer abide by this treaty. Therefore, in order to cope with the large number of 10,000-ton heavy cruisers from other countries, this class of heavy cruisers was born.

It should be noted here that this is also the last heavy cruiser in Romania.

Because the Navy still thinks that the role of heavy cruisers is a bit tasteless after comparing the cost and function. It can't be on the battle line, and the usual escort tasks are overkill. Therefore, after the comparison, it is still believed that either continuing to build battleships or building light cruisers and destroyers is more in line with the actual needs of the Romanian Navy.

As for Chen Shaokuan, whose eyes were red, he naturally knew his expenses. This time, he just came to purchase 4 destroyers and 3 submarines. These funds are not enough to purchase any one in front of him.

When Chen Shaokuan felt sorry that he couldn't buy good things, Du Yuming was also worried about his lack of wallet.

This is the R10 light tank that our country can provide. The total weight of the tank is only 17.9 tons, which is completely suitable for your country's roads and bridges. Don't look at the tonnage of this tank, but the 50mm tank gun equipped with this tank is enough to deal with it. The armored power of your country's imaginary enemy Japan. And the armor of this tank is enough to deal with Japan's 37mm gun. The maximum travel speed is 52 kilometers per hour and the maximum travel is 260 kilometers. It can quickly chase the opponent and get out of the battle. Tanks suitable for your country.

Listening to the leading officer introducing the R10 tank in front of him, Du Yuming had to admit that the other party completely spoke to his heart. Even Gui Yongqing, who followed him by the side, was full of light, convinced by the excellent performance of this tank.

Brother Guangting, the performance of this tank is so excellent that it is really worth buying.

After listening to Gui Yongqing's evaluation in his native language, Du Yuming had a headache. Because good performance must have a worthy price, this is the unchanging truth.

However, Du Yuming, who was somewhat lucky, still asked. How much does this tank cost?

140,000 lei per car, if you buy more than 80 cars, then we can also give a 5% price reduction.

Is this price high? It is not high at all. At present, the purchase price of the Romanian military has reached 110,000 lei, which is really a conscientious price compared to the arms sales of other countries. At present, the general arms sales in the world are 50% higher than that of domestic purchases, which is already considered a really low price.

However, even this low price has dispelled Du Yuming's desire to buy. No way, if you buy this tank, then the money for this purchase is simply not enough to form an armored division. Although the armored division of the Republic of China is not the same level as Romania, it is still unaffordable.

Because the armored division established by Du Yuming this time is composed of two motorized infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, an armored regiment, and other affiliated units, there are only more than 11,000 people, and the tanks it is equipped with are only 120. More than ten vehicles (9X3X4+6).

If the R10 tank is purchased, the cost of the tank alone is as high as more than 17 million lei, not counting the cost of other artillery vehicles. If you add these and spare parts, the cost will be more than 30 million lei. This is enough to form several infantry divisions. Du Yuming did not think that the armored division he formed was worth the cost of the chairman.

So Du Yuming could only hold back and ask the tank without looking at it. Are there any other tanks that are cheaper?

Whenever I think of this officer, I immediately answer. some.

Then take me there.

Going to the other end, the officer pointed to the tank in front of him and said. This is the Jackal IV tank currently equipped in our country. The total weight of the tank is 18.1 tons. Its 47mm tank gun can also deal with the threat from Japan. And its frontal armor of 35mm can basically deal with the 37mm of Japanese tanks. Gun. Its top speed is 35 km/h and its maximum range is 180 km.”

Du Yuming was basically satisfied with the performance of the Jackal IV tank. Although the performance of the R10 tank has dropped a lot, it is enough to deal with the Japanese Type 89 and Type 95 tanks.

So Du Yuming took the opportunity to ask the question he was most concerned about. How much does this tank cost?

The price is 80,000 lei each.

It seems that this time there is no discount.

However, after hearing the offer, Du Yuming felt that the price was good. This is at least compared to the R10 just now. Du Yuming feels that this Jackal IV tank is more suitable for him. After all, he has a small budget.

Well, we'll choose this one.
