I, the super rich crown prince, will build the richest country

That day.

After finishing his work, Xiao Yunhai, who was watching the trend of public opinion online in his spare time, suddenly saw a report that Pharaoh planned to build a new capital. He wondered if Xinhan should also build a new capital.

The reason for this idea and thought is largely because the existing capital Chang'an is located in the coastal area.

Catch the leader first.

If you go to war with a world superpower like the United States, they will besiege you from all sides, and then break through the surface with a point.

In addition, the terrain of the capital Chang'an is north-south.

There is the sea to the west and the mountains to the east.

Blocking both ends is indeed not conducive to escape.

This is the first.

Second, if a new capital is built, it can not only drive infrastructure and economic development.

It can also relieve the pressure on the capital.

According to statistics, the permanent population of Chang'an has reached more than 4 million, and it is still increasing.

In addition to the migrant workers from several southern provinces, there are also 200,000 to 300,000 people from Longguo, many of whom are from southern Fujian.

He has already thought of the location of the capital.

It is located at the junction of Gaoyou County and Chencang County in Yichuan Province. There is a large area of ​​plains in this area, which is 90 kilometers away from the current capital Chang'an.

The key point is that it is located in the middle of the mountains.

There are mountains all around. In a sense, the possibility of ground troops breaking in is very small.

The only way to attack here is to seize the airport first through strategic air force delivery.

And destroy the air defense system.

Then we have to withstand the counterattack of the New Han army.

Then rely on air transport to continuously increase military strength, but this possibility is very small.

Strategic delivery of air transport aircraft is usually a small combat unit, and it is impossible to carry out large-scale armored delivery.

How can we hold on to the well-equipped New Han Army?

So this strategy of blooming in the middle will not work in Xinhan.

As for why the south was not chosen.

The strategic hinterland of the south is wider, but the people in the south are not as popular as those in the north.

However, moving the capital is not a rash decision. If you want to move it, there are too many issues to consider.

Although the capital cannot be moved to the south, it is still necessary to build a benchmark city in the south and build a national economic center. Otherwise, the gap between the rich and the poor in the north and the south is too large, which is not conducive to local stability.

As for which city to choose, he personally prefers Kuching.

The Chinese have the largest population in this city, and it is also the largest city in the former Sarawak region.

The geographical location is also excellent.

"Knock knock."

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting his thoughts.

"Come in."

Outside the door, Lin Na heard the sound and pushed the door open and walked in.

"Your Highness!"

Xiao Yunhai looked up and saw that it was Lin Na, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, Mr. Zhou from Xinghai Shipping Company is here and said he wants to see you for something important."

"Oh?"

I heard Zhou Haiyang coming.

Xiao Yunhai guessed that the design of the new warship was probably completed.

"Let him in."

"Yes!"

After a while, Lin Na led Zhou Haiyang in.

"Secretary Lin, wait a moment."

Xiao Yunhai stopped Lin Na who was about to leave and turned his eyes to Zhou Haiyang; "Mr. Zhou, has the new warship been designed?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Secretary Lin, please contact the Ministry of National Defense and ask the Navy Commander, Deputy Commander, and Chief of Staff to come to my side."

Although he can make the final decision, after all, it is others who use the ships, not him.

Sometimes, you still have to listen to others' opinions.

If the frontline combat personnel think it is good, then it is really good.

"Yes!"

Lin Na poured Zhou Haiyang a cup of coffee before leaving.

Xiao Yunhai saw Zhou Haiyang holding a briefcase and asked with a smile: "Did you bring the design drawings of the new warship?"

"Yes."

Zhou Haiyang put down the coffee cup in his hand and took out a drawing from his briefcase.

Of course, it was just an appearance design drawing, not a detailed technical drawing.

Xiao Yunhai originally thought it was a draft line drawing, but when he saw it, it was still a highly realistic CG drawing. He nodded with satisfaction. For a pseudo-military fan like him, this looks more intuitive and easy to understand.

Zhou Haiyang introduced it on the side.

“This project, code-named Yinglong-class destroyer, draws on the technologies of Kunpeng-class destroyers and Yingyu-class combat ships, and combines the needs of the navy with the experience of the current mainstream Aegis ships in the world.

The ship has a full load displacement of 6,200 tons.

The ship is 153 meters long, 17.8 meters wide, and has a draft of 6 meters.

The power system uses two gas turbines, with a maximum speed of 31 knots and a maximum endurance of 5,700 nautical miles.

In terms of weapons, the bow is equipped with a 100mm main gun, 4 sets of 8-mounted vertical launch units and a copy of the Longguo close-in defense gun.

Among them, 4 The 8-unit vertical launch system uses the most popular cold and hot co-launch system, which can launch our self-developed "Polang" series anti-ship missiles and "Tracer" air defense missiles.

The middle area of ​​the ship can carry 2 Zhulang-3 cruise missiles and 4 Zhulang-4 cruise missiles.

The tail is equipped with 4 8-unit 32-unit vertical launch units and a 24-unit Tracer-3 air defense missile system, as well as 4 jammer launchers.

As for radar and electronic equipment, it uses my country's second-generation active phased array radar and sea search radar, meter-wave radar, and over-the-horizon radar. The overall combat performance is stronger than our existing Kunpeng-class destroyer. "

"Stronger than the Kunpeng-class destroyer?"

"Yes!" Zhou Haiyang explained: "Because the new warship uses a cold and hot launcher, it means that it can launch multiple types of missiles."

Xiao Yunhai showed a look of realization.

Before Xinhan foundThe upgraded version of 052c purchased by Longguo is a cold launcher, and it does not adopt the cold and hot co-frame design. After all, Longguo itself did not master the cold and hot co-frame technology at that time, or it was unwilling to sell it even if it mastered it. After all, it has not used it itself, so how can it sell the most advanced technology to other countries?

The cold and hot co-frame design can maximize the use of vertical launch units, and match different missiles according to different combat needs, which is undoubtedly much stronger in terms of combat power.

"Can the vertical launch units on our existing Kunpeng-class destroyers be improved to cold and hot co-frame technology?"

"It can be improved, but it is troublesome to modify. If it really needs to be improved, I actually suggest that some vertical launch systems be changed to one pit and four missiles, which can be used to launch some short-range air defense missiles, which can also improve combat power."

"Have you absorbed the American MK41 vertical launch unit technology?"

He asked this question mainly because at present, the country that masters the "one pit and four missiles" technology is the United States.

Longguo and the Russian bear do not have it yet.

It can be said to be the unique skill of the Americans.

"In fact, the technical principle of the MK57 vertical launch system has been understood. It's just that the tonnage of such a ship may reach more than 15,000 tons. If the tonnage is small, it will reduce the combat power. Therefore, the technology of one pit and four missiles is not adopted on this Yinglong-class Aegis destroyer."

Zhou Haiyang explained.

The technology of one pit and four missiles is not without disadvantages.

The silo is just that big.

If you put four missiles in it, the performance of the launched missiles will inevitably decrease. For example, it can launch an air defense missile with a range of 150 kilometers, but after changing to one pit and four missiles, it can only launch four air defense missiles with a range of 20 kilometers.

The place is just that big. The longer the range of the missile, the larger the missile body.

If you want to use the technology of one pit and four missiles and increase the range, it means that the silo must be larger.

Originally, four silos could be installed, but only two silos could be installed.

It doesn't make much sense.

Unless the tonnage of warships is increased and larger destroyers are built, the one-silo-four-missile technology can indeed double the combat power while meeting the missile performance.

"When the navy guys come, you can discuss whether to make improvements." Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

No decision has been made.

Leave the problem to the navy to choose.

"Is this Tracer air defense missile a new type developed by us?"

Xiao Yunhai was very interested in this name that suddenly appeared.

“Yes.”

“There are currently three models. The Tracer-1 air defense missile is the Falcon-80N (also known as H-16, with a range of 70 kilometers) exported to us by Longguo. The Tracer-2 is a short-range air defense missile developed on this basis, with a range of 15 kilometers, capable of ultra-low-altitude enemy interception, and can intercept targets above 1 meter above the water surface., and has a fast launch speed, the missile firing speed has reached Mach 3.

Basically, it can intercept incoming targets on the water surface.

The Tracer-3 air defense missile is a medium- and long-range air defense system with a range of 50 kilometers and a speed of 2.5 Mach, reaching the world's advanced level. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yunhai was outstanding.

This means that Xinhan has completely achieved independence in missiles and no longer needs to rely on other countries.

This is undoubtedly something to be happy about.

Air-to-ground missiles have the "Sword" series, air-to-air missiles have the "Changkong" series, anti-ship missiles have the "Breaking Waves" series, cruise missiles have the "Chasing Waves" series, and air defense missiles used by warships have the "Tracer" series.

In addition, the army has individual air defense missiles with the "Shenjian" series.

|= |

Based on the Patriot 3, the PAC-3 air defense missiles are copied from the ". Chasing Wind" series.

Anti-tank missiles include the "Fire" series. []

Supersonic ballistic missiles include the "Thunder" series.

Regardless of whether the missiles are advanced or not, except for the "Thunder" series, Shinhan has now achieved self-sufficiency, which is already a remarkable achievement.

Looking around the world, there are only a handful of countries that can do this.

Take South Korea as an example, this country that claims to be the strongest in the universe In the field of air-to-air missiles, the United States has to buy European or American ones, and cannot make air-to-air missiles by itself, or to be more precise, long-range air-to-air missiles.

Europe has been working on it for so many years, and it has only made a Meteor.

It is hard to guarantee that there is no technical support from the Americans.

There are only three countries in the world that can develop air-to-air missiles on their own.

Now that Shinhan can do it, it is already the fourth in the world.

Don’t worry about whether it is a copycat technology.

It is great to be able to develop and improve it.

If we really want to talk about imitation, Mao Xiong and Longguo also conducted reverse research based on the "Sidewinder" air-to-air missiles they picked up in the early days, and then formed their own systems.

Xinhan also took this path.

So imitation is not shameful.

If you can imitate it, it means you have the ability.

What I am afraid of is that you can't even imitate it, then there will be a big problem.

"Dong Dong~~"

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

"Your Highness, Commander Wang and others are here."

Lin Na walked in and said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yunhai said: "Let them in."

"Yes!"

A moment later, Wang Wenyuan and others walked in.

"Meet Your Highness. ”

Everyone bowed respectfully to Xiao Yunhai.

“Hmm~~”

“Please take a seat.”

Xiao Yunhai motioned for everyone to take a seat.

“This is a new type of destroyer designed by Xinghai Shipbuilding Company. Take a look first.” Xiao Yunhai handed the highly realistic CG drawing to Wang Wenyuan.

“Another new warship?” (Wang Le) Several naval generals were surprised when they heard this.color.

They are not fools.

Xiao Yunhai specially asked them to come. If nothing unexpected happens, the navy will probably be able to purchase warships again this year.

Since the purchase of 22 thousand-ton "Yingyu" class combat ships in the previous three years.

The navy has not purchased warships in the past three years. .

Seeing the large-scale replacement of the army and the air force and the purchase of new weapons, how can they not be envious.

6200 tons?

64 vertical launch units?

24 air defense missile launchers?

Or is it a hot and cold co-frame design?

The maximum cruising speed can reach 31 knots?

A group of senior naval generals such as Wang Wenyuan had golden eyes.

I thought it was only four or five thousand tons.

I didn't expect it to reach six thousand tons.

And it has 64 vertical launch units.

The key is the hot and cold co-frame design.

This means that the combat effectiveness of this new warship can already compete with the existing "Kunpeng" class destroyers.

Even to some extent, it can be better.

In addition, there are independent cruise missile silos in the central area, which can launch 6 cruise missiles.

This combat power, this small body, to be honest, he feels that it is a little bit of a small horse pulling a big cart.

"Chief Engineer Zhou, is this data true?"

After discussing with several people, Wang Wenyuan confirmed with Zhou Haiyang beside him.

"Of course!"

"How much does it cost?" Wang Wenyuan asked directly.

"Including weapons, it's about 830 million Han Yuan per ship."

"Less than 4 dollars?"

"Yes!"

Wang Wenyuan said happily: "This price is much cheaper than the Kunpeng-class destroyer we bought before."

(Ps: Upload a hypothetical picture of the Yinglong-class destroyer!).
