All-people naval warfare: from patrol boats to aircraft carrier fleets

Therefore, when this scientific research conference came to an end, the scientists who studied ships also presented their own results, not to claim credit, but to prove that they did not take the money in vain.

After receiving the production drawings handed over by the scientists, Ye Bai was not surprised. After all, this was not the first time that the scientific research center had produced results.

Putting aside those small scientific research achievements, the progress in radar, the birth of the fire control radar system, and the introduction of the two previous carrier-based aircraft are all inseparable from the efforts of the scientists at the scientific research center.

But in terms of ships, this is really the first time that results have been achieved, which is normal when you think about it. After all, developing a new ship is not a simple matter.

This is a comprehensive technology that includes many subsystems, and the requirements for technological strength are quite high.

In addition, Ye Bai has successively obtained the production drawings of many warships. Among all levels of warships, they are among the more advanced ones in the world of navigation, and the demand for new warships is not high.

Therefore, Ye Bai has never put any pressure on the scientific research center, nor has he forced them to develop a new type of warship.

Now this group of scientists took the initiative to provide a piece of ship production technology, which surprised Ye Bai a little bit, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, he didn't believe that with the current level of the scientific research center, he could develop it by himself. An excellent warship that surpasses the current equipment level of the Chinese fleet.

The length is 178 meters, the width is 22 meters, the displacement is 21,000 tons, the speed is 21 knots, the maximum range is 23,000 kilometers, and it is equipped with 3 150mm artillery, 2 37mm anti-aircraft guns, 4 2010mm anti-aircraft guns, and can carry 7933 tons of fuel and 972 tons of supplies. ammunition, 790 tons of consumables and 100 tons of spare parts.

Ye Bai didn't understand the relevant construction technology and didn't look at it at all. He just paid attention to the relevant data introduction given by the scientists behind the drawings.

Ye Bai, who was still a little careless at first, his eyes widened. This turned out to be a comprehensive supply ship.

To be honest, Ye Bai wouldn't be so surprised if the scientists came up with even a battleship construction drawing. After all, it was impossible for a battleship to surpass the level of the Yamato-class battleship.

But the situation is completely different for comprehensive supply ships. This is a blank in the entire Chinese fleet. With the increasing scale of the fleet, the Chinese fleet is in urgent need of an excellent supply ship.

If the main fleet didn't have to worry about fleet supply problems because of the existence of the Yanhuang, this flaw would have been exposed long ago.

When the Yuntong Island Guard Fleet was established, due to the lack of supply ships, Ye Bai had to take out two precious Sacramento-class fast combat support ships and temporarily handed them over to Cunningham.

But this is just a helpless move. After all, Ye Bai only has a total of 10 Sacramento-class fast combat support ships in his hands, all of which are rewards from the system. If you use one, you will lose one.

Although we have a complete set of construction drawings for the Sacramento-class fast combat support ship, many of the technologies have exceeded the capabilities of the scientific research center. Until now, we have not been able to fully understand all the technologies of this integrated supply ship, which has made the shipyard unable to do so on its own. put up.

It can be said that the problem of supply ships has become a worry for Ye Bai. If it were not for the Yanhuang and the remaining eight Sacramento-class fast combat support ships at hand, Ye Bai would have collapsed long ago before reaching the end of the rope.

He never expected that scientists would give him such a great gift just when he came to the scientific research center to hold a scientific research conference.

Overjoyed, Ye Bai's hand holding the blueprint trembled a little, and he asked,"Did you develop this comprehensive supply ship by yourself?"

Seeing Ye Bai's expression, the scientists' originally solemn expressions finally changed. He calmed down, and with a proud expression, he answered with his head held high:"Sir, this is because we have spent a lot of time studying the production technology of the Sacramento-class fast combat support ship, and combined it with our existing technology level, thus developing a comprehensive supply ship"

"Although it is far inferior to the Sacramento-class fast combat support ship in terms of loading capacity, tonnage, supply capacity, defense capability, armor protection, etc., it is already the best supply ship we can currently produce."

At the end of the sentence, the scientists also sounded a little disappointed. After all, the complete set of information on an advanced supply ship was placed in front of them. However, due to various reasons, they could not build it, and they did not even have part of the technology. It can be understood that this is a slap in the face to these scientific researchers.

Even if Ye Bai had not personally visited the scientific research center this time and made some demands on the scientific research center, these scientists would not have wanted to Take out this comprehensive supply ship.

Because in the minds of these scientists, the comprehensive supply ship they developed by themselves is far inferior to the Sacramento-class fast combat support ship that Ye Bai gave them. No action.

However, Ye Bai and these scientists have completely different ideas. The Sacramento-class fast combat support ship is powerful, but it is a product beyond the current technological level. Ye Bai has never thought that it can be used now. This supply ship was built.

It is only used as a technical reserve for the scientific research center. The fact that scientists can develop such a comprehensive supply ship on their own based on the Sacramento-class fast combat support ship is already far beyond their capabilities. Expected.

And from the data point of view, the performance of this comprehensive supply ship is not weak. Taking the Yamato-class battleship with the largest tonnage as an example, it can accommodate more than 5,000 tons of fuel. One such comprehensive supply ship can even satisfy two The fuel supply needs of the Yamato-class battleships.

Small battleships such as the Fletcher-class destroyers can only carry about 500 tons of fuel. This comprehensive supply ship can even meet the fuel needs of nearly 20 Fletcher-class destroyers.

Compared with the Sacramento The 20,000-ton fuel load capacity of the fast combat support ship is definitely much lower, but it is the most suitable and most scarce supply ship for the current Chinese fleet.

Its maximum speed of 21 knots is certainly not as good as that of fleet battleships. The speed of more than 30 knots is completely sufficient for an auxiliary warship. It can keep up with the speed of the fleet during long-distance voyages.

"Great, this is the battleship the fleet needs most right now. You have made great contributions."

Ye Bai, who was in the excitement, didn't notice the changes in the scientists' emotions at all, and continued to ask:"By the way, have you named this comprehensive supply ship?"

Although Ye Bai's memory has been strengthened by the power of the system and can recall any information he saw when he was on earth, he really has not paid attention to the supply ships during World War II, nor has he Regardless of my memory, I can't recall whether there is a comprehensive supply ship that can compare with the data on the drawing.

"Sir, after we developed this comprehensive supply ship, we discussed it and finally chose the name Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship."

This is a group of scientists who are devoted to scientific research. If they were replaced by political veterans like Speer or Heydrich, they would definitely say at this time:"It is better for the adults to provide this supply personally. The ship naming is the most appropriate."

However, Ye Bai didn't care about these false names. When he heard this name, he felt vaguely that it was suitable. He even felt that it should be called this name in the first place. He nodded repeatedly and said:"Okay, this name is good, let's use it. the name. After finishing speaking ,

Ye Bai turned to Speer next to him and said:"Spere, immediately mobilize the slipway and start building this comprehensive supply ship. The first batch of construction must not be less than 50 ships, and we will continue to do so in the future." Build more quantities"

"310 By the way, according to your analysis and calculations, how long is the construction period of this Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship?"

"Sir, although the Dietmarschen-class comprehensive supply ship is huge in tonnage, in the final analysis it is just an auxiliary ship. It is not difficult to build. According to our calculations, it can be successfully launched into service in about 15 days."

15 days is neither long nor short. It is about the same time as it takes to build a heavy cruiser. Although comprehensive supply ships are important, they do not need to be built in large numbers. (Watch it! For novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!) The reason for building so many in the first batch is because the Chinese fleet is not currently equipped with any supply ships, and needs to allocate some to each fleet to achieve a breakthrough of 0.

Wait until the first batch of comprehensive supply ships are launched After entering service, you can reduce the construction plan and maintain a minimum construction quantity to ensure that it can keep up with the expansion speed of the fleet.

Nodding, Ye Bai encouraged the scientists again and did not continue scientific research. After waiting for a long time in the center, he left with Speer and others.

Before leaving, Ye Bai also specifically said that in order to reward the scientists of the scientific research center, a special bonus will be awarded to all scientists, especially Dieter. The developers of the Malshen-class integrated supply ship.

Although these scientists are the latest in scientific research, they are still living people. They also need to eat, drink and take care of themselves. Even with the emergence of a large number of female residents in small spaces. Many people who have lived in the small space for a long time People in the small space have already gotten married. In order to make their families live a better life, these scientists will not refuse monetary rewards, but they also want to eat the fireworks of the world. After leaving the scientific research center, under the arrangement of Speer, Ye Bai I had lunch in a small space for the first time in a long time, and in the afternoon I inspected the small space with great interest.

After dinner, I took Speer to discuss again, or to be more precise, I should I made the request to Speer...
