The Navy Has No Nuclear Power, So What Does It Have To Do With Our Coast Guard?

With the modification plan provided by the system, Qin Chuan immediately invested in the research and development and design of the cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine.

First of all, if you want the submarine to have a ground effect, it must have a pair of fixed-wing wings.

But if the submarine sinks and sails underwater, this pair of fixed-wing wings will immediately become an obstacle to its navigation.

Generally, the speed of submarines underwater can reach more than 30 knots, and they have to withstand huge underwater pressure.

So in this case, submarines generally design their surfaces to be more rounded.

If a submarine suddenly has a pair of huge fixed-wing wings, let alone the immense increase in the difficulty of diving.

Even the pressure of navigation and underwater may not be something that this pair of wings can withstand.

So Qin Chuan must design a foldable huge wing installed on the submarine.

In addition, retractable nose winglets and tail variable swept wings must be designed.

In addition to greatly reducing the underwater resistance of the cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine, the variable swept wing can also change the sweep angle according to the flight altitude and flight speed when flying in the air, thereby improving the aerodynamic layout of the aircraft and improving flight performance!

In this way, when flying underwater and near the ground, the cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine has two forms.

Under different media conditions, each has its own form suitable for navigation and minimum resistance.

Secondly, it is also an extremely troublesome thing to make such a 3,000-ton steel behemoth fly.

For example, the An-225, the largest transport aircraft in the history of the entire Blue Star, has a maximum take-off weight of 640 tons.

This is already very large.

But the weight of a cross-medium ground-effect flying nuclear submarine is as much as five times that!

Even the largest ground-effect aircraft created by the former Bear Empire has a maximum take-off weight of only 1,000 tons.

It is only one-third of the weight of the cross-medium ground-effect flying nuclear submarine designed by Qin Chuan.

Fortunately, Qin Chuan positioned it as a nuclear-powered propulsion at the beginning of the design.

Otherwise, the terrifying fuel consumption alone would be a huge problem.

In addition, Qin Chuan plans to install ten special turbojet engines with a thrust of over 100 tons on its nose retractable winglets.

Although turbojet engines have gradually faced elimination and have been replaced by turbofan engines due to fuel consumption and service life issues.

But turbojet engines also have their own characteristics.

First, turbojet engines have a relatively high thermal efficiency and are more likely to provide high thrust.

Second, the structure of the turbojet engine is much simpler, and it is easier to accumulate thrust capacity with great force.

And if Qin Chuan wants to make this 3,000-ton steel behemoth take off, what he needs is an extremely powerful thrust!

As for the shortcomings such as fuel consumption and engine life, they are not considered by Qin Chuan at all.

Because this cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine uses a nuclear reactor to provide power, energy consumption is not a problem at all.

As for the short service life of the turbojet engine, it is even less of a problem.

Because for ground effect vehicles, the ten large special turbojet engines that provide thrust on the front winglets will only be used when taking off.

As long as they take off for a few seconds and meet the conditions for the wing effect to produce, and enter the ground effect flight stage, these ten special large engines will automatically shut down.

Instead, the four latest turbofan engines in the tail part continue to provide thrust.

In this way, the problems of providing lift-off thrust and providing forward thrust are solved by different technical engines in different positions, which perfectly realizes the problem of sending the 3,000-ton steel behemoth into low altitude and ground effect flight.

Generally speaking, the distance of ground effect of ground effect vehicle is related to the wingspan of its main wing, which is half of its wingspan.

According to Qin Chuan’s design plan, the wingspan of this cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine is about 40 meters.

So its optimal ground effect flying altitude is about 20 meters.

This is not only the most labor-saving altitude for flying with the help of ground effect, but also perfectly avoids the waves of the sea!

Variable swept wings, folding main wings, retractable front wings, plus ten special giant turbojet engines that provide lift-off thrust and four latest turbofan engines that push forward thrust.

This series of technologies and fine designs can create a shocking product like a cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine.

Although there is technical principle support provided by Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan still needs to test and manufacture the design drawings and related equipment and instruments step by step.

In addition, the only means of detection and attack for this cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine is the armed”devil fish” dropped into the ocean. Qin Chuan must also design three different types of drawings as soon as possible.

Submarines also need nautical charts to sail in the ocean.

Without relevant nautical charts, submarines generally do not even enter unfamiliar water environments.

Because if it accidentally hits an underwater reef or an underwater mountain range, it will be a huge trouble and disaster.

After this armed”devil fish” equipped with a detector is deployed, it can well detect and draw charts of various sea areas and record relevant hydrological conditions.

Even if it sneaks into the enemy’s port to draw a map of the area, it is not a problem.

Moreover, in the preparation stage, it can also form a network on the seabed to launch suicide attacks on enemy submarines and large surface warships like a shark group or a swarm of drones.

Therefore, Qin (ccde) Chuan must also pay attention to the design work of these three types of armed”devil fish”!

…………

February 28.

After nearly a month of busy work, Qin Chuan finally completed all the relevant design work of the cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine.

The three Type 039 submarines that have completed the relevant dismantling work have officially entered their own modification stage.

This stage will be specifically responsible for Zhang Bin, the chief engineer of the Coast Guard who is responsible for the specific implementation of the project, so Qin Chuan does not need to worry too much.

And now that there are so many young military technical officers in the Coast Guard Equipment Development and Design Bureau, the speed of the entire design and modification work is much faster than before.

However, in addition to the cross-medium ground effect flying nuclear submarine, there is another major event recently.

That is, the 200,000-ton super-giant nuclear-powered suction dredger has finally been completed and is sailing to the Zhongsha Great Atoll in the Zhongsha Islands in the South China Sea.

It will first start the work of blowing sand and filling the sea there, and fill an island to build the Coast Guard’s unmanned mechanical barracks and transfer station at sea.

So after Qin Chuan finished the work at hand, he immediately took a special plane to Yongxing Island.

Then he took a Coast Guard ship from Yongxing Island to the Zhongsha Islands, and finally took off the ship-borne armed helicopter and landed on the 200,000-ton nuclear-powered dredger.

This series of complicated turns could not help but make Qin Chuan toss about the inconvenience of transportation in the southern waters.

If all the Dongsha Islands, Nansha Islands, Xisha Islands, and Zhongsha Islands are blown and reclaimed to create islands and build central airports in the future, it will definitely not be so troublesome.

Even if there is a high-speed near-ground aircraft such as a cross-medium ground-effect flying nuclear submarine, it can also go directly.

At three o’clock in the afternoon.

A ship-borne armed helicopter flew over the Zhongsha Atoll.

Looking down from the sky, the waters near the Zhongsha Atoll are almost all endless black because there are reefs under the water.

The area of 10,000 square kilometers is larger than the area of many prefecture-level cities in coastal areas!

And on the edge of this Zhongsha Atoll, there is a behemoth that is more than 400 meters long and more than 60 meters wide. It is constantly working.

This is a 200,000-ton nuclear-powered suction dredger that has entered the stage of blowing sand and reclamation.

After approaching it, the ship-borne armed helicopter quickly lowered its altitude and docked on its deck.

“”Chief Engineer Qin, you are finally here!”

Qin Chuan had just gotten off the helicopter when he suddenly saw Commander Zhu of the Navy Headquarters, Commander Yu of the Southern Theater, Staff Officer Cheng of the Navy Headquarters, and Deputy Commander Wei of the South China Sea Fleet, all of whom were here.

“”Chief Engineer Qin, this giant nuclear-powered dredger has already started blowing sand and filling the sea this morning. Why did you arrive only now?”

Commander-in-Chief Yu of the Southern Theater asked Qin Chuan enthusiastically.

The last time he met Qin Chuan was during the sea trial of the electromagnetic railgun law enforcement ship. At that time, he had a special appreciation for Qin Chuan, so he was very enthusiastic after meeting him this time.

“Commander-in-Chief Yu, your news is out of date. Chief Qin was not late on purpose!”

“I heard that their Coast Guard is going to set up a Coast Guard submarine unit recently. Chief Engineer Qin is refitting the Type 039 submarine, so he came a little late!”

Commander Zhu of the Navy Headquarters joked.

Upon hearing this news, Commander Yu of the Southern Theater and Deputy Commander Wei of the South China Sea Fleet were really confused.

“If the coast guard has a submarine force, what will our South China Sea Fleet do?”

“Why do I now seriously doubt that the Coast Guard General Administration’s several detachments, plus the establishment of the Coast Guard Submarine Detachment, will soon be on par with our regular naval fleet!”

Deputy Commander Wei of the South China Sea Fleet said with some doubt about his life. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

When he first met Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan was still the newly appointed Chief Designer of Coast Guard Equipment Development. At that time, he and Director Wang came to attend the retirement ceremony of the Type 52C destroyer with paint buckets.

But now, the Coast Guard is even going to establish its own submarine detachment?

“Chief, in the new marine struggle, the role of underwater law enforcement and protection is also very important!”

“And after the navy goes to the deep blue, our coast guard must take on the responsibility of defending territorial waters and territory,”

Qin Chuan responded.[]

After hearing Qin Chuan’s words, the deputy commander of the South China Sea Fleet and several heads of the Navy nodded silently.

Qin Chuan’s words are still very reasonable.

Judging from the underwater situation around Longguo, except for the southern waters, other waters are almost surrounded by island chains and the territory of the United States’ allies.

The United States has deployed a large number of various underwater sound pattern arrays along the first island chain, coupled with anti-submarine patrol aircraft, submarines and warships, almost locking the possibility of Longguo’s submarine forces going out in this direction.

And after the Connecticut nuclear submarine of the United States hit the underwater mountain range in the southern waters of Longguo in 21, the United States has continuously increased its mapping and reconnaissance operations in the southern waters.

For example, the United States’s flawless, Victory, Loyalty and other reconnaissance ships are deployed in the southern waters almost all year round to perform underwater mapping tasks.

Even in the seabed, there are countless unmanned submersible detectors and sonars deployed.

These unmanned submersible detectors and sonars deployed by the United States in our waters are obviously not enough for fishermen to catch alone.

If the coast guard can also enforce the law underwater in Longguo’s waters, it will indeed greatly reduce the pressure on the navy’s submarine force!

“The establishment of a submarine detachment by the Coast Guard will be of great help to us!”

“Although it cannot be equipped with heavy firepower such as torpedoes and missiles, the Coast Guard submarine, as a non-military unit, is also very good at providing us with forward reconnaissance missions!”

Commander Zhu of the Navy Headquarters said.

Several other military leaders nodded silently, obviously agreeing with Commander Zhu’s statement.

After a few more simple chats, everyone quickly shifted the topic to sand blowing and land reclamation.

Because today this 200,000-ton nuclear-powered dredger is the real protagonist!

“Chief Engineer Qin, please look at the part of the Zhongsha Atoll that has been filled by the wind!”

Deputy Commander Wei of the South China Sea Fleet pointed to the real-time picture transmitted back by the drone and said.

Qin Chuan looked and found that ten kilometers away, the ten huge pipes of the giant nuclear-powered dredger were constantly swallowing and spitting out a huge amount of broken mud and sand.

These mud and sand were transmitted through the pipes after the dredger’s super-giant suction ladder weighing more than 30,000 tons broke the rocks and soil at the bottom of the sea tens of meters deep. The super-giant suction ladder weighing 30,000 tons is even heavier than a dock landing ship, and its suction capacity is extremely terrifying.

���If you stand on the deck and look down at the sea, you can even see a huge yellow muddy vortex.

In addition, ordinary dredgers have only one pipeline, which is enough to support the transmission of the mud and sand that is ground up by the suction.

But this giant nuclear-powered dredger has ten transportation pipelines.

Moreover, each pipeline is a large-diameter giant pipeline, all of which are fully spitting mud and sand onto the underwater islands and reefs.

Almost as soon as he spoke, in less than ten minutes, a new area of 7,140 square meters, the size of a complete football field, was filled on the islands and reefs!

“Chief, what’s wrong?”

“The dredger is working normally, there is nothing abnormal or wrong!”

Qin Chuan asked curiously after watching the drone footage.

But after seeing Qin Chuan’s calm look, many other leaders were not calm!

“What’s wrong?”

“Isn’t it shocking!”

“Our land area is growing at a speed visible to the naked eye!”

“Seeing this kind of territorial expansion, we can hardly suppress our excitement!”

Said Cheng, the staff officer of the Navy Headquarters.

Even though they have been watching it for a day, it is still difficult to calm down the excitement when they look at this kind of picture again!

Military generals have always been proud of expanding territory and conquering the world!

And now, aren’t they also expanding territory in another way!

“Chief Engineer Qin, at this rate, we can reclaim one square kilometer of land and island area in one day!”

“And do you know how long it took us to cover this area in the past? At least ten months!”

“This 200,000-ton steel behemoth is simply a map editor walking on the sea!”

“With every breath we take, our territory is expanding!”

“Our future generations will live in this magnificent and rich South China Sea islands, and they will definitely remember and appreciate your contribution!” said Commander Zhu of the Navy Headquarters.

“No, Chief, it is the dedication of our generation!”

Qin Chuan emphasized and corrected.

The Nanyang Development Plan is a huge project, and his strength alone is just a drop in the bucket.

Only by gathering the great power of the entire nation can this huge and rich southern sea area be successfully built!

…………

It was seven o’clock in the evening.

Today was destined to be an extraordinary day.

Because after the release of the Red Head No. 1 Document, after nearly a month, everyone heard about the progress of the Nanyang Development Plan again!

And this time, the News Broadcast actually used a full thirty minutes to report on the planning of this plan and the ongoing development scenes.

On the News Broadcast, huge nuclear-powered dredgers created land with a terrifying amount of mud and sand.

Under the time-lapse photography of CCTV cameras around an area for a whole day, everyone was shocked to find that in just one day, a large area of land islands was born in the ocean.

And the News Broadcast keeps pace with the times, and also drew a line on the entire map of Longguo, with a reminder of the land area + 1 km!

At the same time, the figures of Navy Commander Zhu, Qin Chuan and others suddenly appeared on the camera.

“The previous generation plants trees and the next generation enjoys the shade. When our descendants stand on this vast, rich and beautiful South China Sea Islands, they will remember the name Qinchuan firmly!”

“No, it is the contribution and name of our generation!”

The conversation between Qin Chuan and Commander Zhu was also edited in as background sound!

In front of the TV screen, all the people of Longguo were shocked and proud of this scene!

From today, the territory of Longguo will enter the +1 stage every day!

At this moment, they understood from another level the meaning of the official emphasis on being a developing country.

Because the land area of Longguo has been continuously developing since the Nanyang Development Plan began!
