MTL - Warship of Great Power-Chapter 648 052BVS052C

   Chapter 648 052BVS052C

   This can't be blamed on anything else, but the current holiday is too short.

  It was only in the new millennium that a genius came up with the idea of ​​taking two weekends back and forth to make up a seven-day holiday. Now, there are still three days off for Chinese New Year. For many people, these three-day holidays are very stressful.

  Take Qin Tao as an example, after the New Year’s Eve, he has to go back on the first day of the new year. When he arrives at Mingzhou Group, it is probably the night of the first day of the new year, and he has to hold a meeting overnight. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, you have to go to the capital to jointly negotiate the bidding process. After the meeting, on the fourth and fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the bidding will officially start.

   "Dad, Dad, look at this tiger dumpling I made, is it good?" At this time, Qin Haiyang came over with a dumpling with a special shape, and came to Qin Tao to show off.

In the past, although Qin Tao took the time to visit his son, he always felt that there was some estrangement between him and his son. The son was also afraid of him and didn't kiss him. But now, his son is completely familiar with him. As he spoke, he sat down on his lap.

  Qin Tao nodded: "That's right, it's really good. By the way, when you made dumplings, did you include a coin?"

   "It's wrapped, just wrap it in my tiger dumpling."

  Qin Tao thinks it's a little funny, if you wrap it in this dumpling, does that still make sense? However, he nodded his head, "Okay, let's see who is so lucky to eat dumplings with coins."

   "Yes." Qin Haiyang nodded vigorously.

   "Ocean, the water is boiling, it's time for us to make dumplings!"

   "Yes." Qin Haiyang ran away again.

  Looking at his son's back, Qin Tao knew in his heart that this was probably the happiest Spring Festival his son had ever had, but it was a pity that he had to leave again.

At the dinner table, Qin Haiyang really ate dumplings with coins, and was extremely happy, while Qin Tao also took advantage of this time, hesitated to say: "Hangyang, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, should we go back to Mingzhou? Your grandparents are going to pay New Year's greetings?"

   "Okay, okay!" Sure enough, children are always easy to deceive.

  Zhao Ling looked over with questioning eyes, Qin Tao nodded, some are busy!

  New Year's Day, evening, meeting room of Mingzhou Shipyard.

   "Boss Qin, don't worry, our 052C destroyer will definitely be approved by the superiors. Our design is first-class, even if it is not better than weapons, but only faster than the speed of our brothers."

   "With the same power and the same hull, why is our destroyer faster than those of our brother units?" Qin Tao was a little curious.

   "Because the warships of the brother units were launched earlier, their bottoms are not very smooth." Zhou Yongfei said: "They have no time to clean them up."

  Qin Tao shook his head helplessly: "What we want to compare is the real ability. We must let the navy see that our warships are much better than those of our brothers."

   "Boss Qin, if it's better than the real thing, I have a solution." Yang Dawei said.

"any solution?"

   "Fly our J-31A over here and see which warship can spot it earlier."

  Qin Tao's eyes immediately brightened: "That's right! This is the way to win the dignity! Although there is no stealth coating, the aircraft body also has a certain stealth effect."

  According to Qin Tao's plan, the stealth coating on the F-117 will be available in 1999, and at that time, it will be sprayed on the J-31A. However, even if this is the case, you can pull it over and try.

After all, the stealth of a fighter jet, the coating is only one aspect, and the design of the body surface is also very important. In terms of some specific data, the contribution of the stealth coating to the stealth performance, which accounts for about 20%, mainly depends on The airframe reflects radar waves in other directions, so it doesn't matter even if there is no stealth coating.

   "I heard that our relevant domestic departments have developed a stealth coating, but we don't know how effective the stealth is." Yang Dawei said.

  Qin Tao's eyes lit up: "Whether the effect is good or not, first paint our J-31A! Let them know now!"

   "I'll go." Zhao Ling, who was sitting next to Qin Tao, said.

Although it has not been officially announced, but when Zhao Ling appeared at the meeting today, everyone will understand what is happening. Zhao Ling is engaged in Hongqi-16, and the 052C is equipped with Haihongqi IX. Sitting squarely beside Qin Tao.

  So, Zhao Ling is not sitting here as a military research and development personnel, but as Qin Tao's assistant! It seems that in the future, Mr. Qin will often take his wife to run around.

  As for Qin Haiyang, he had a great time with his grandparents today. Qin Tao and Zhao Ling don't need to take care of them.

  Qin Tao nodded, watched Zhao Ling leave, and then continued: "Besides the advantage in detecting stealth aircraft, what other overwhelming advantages does our warship have?"

   Needless to say? Of course, it is the ability to deal with multiple targets. Compared with the four-sided large shield and one rotating large shield, the target refresh rate is very different.

   "If the superior is willing to dispatch a large number of target drones, it will reflect the performance of our warship. The more target drones dispatched, the better. There are high and low, different directions, and different heights."

   A large shield that rotates on one side cannot track so many targets in time. The four-sided phased array radar does not need to rotate, and can keep an eye on the target at any time.

  Qin Tao nodded: "That's right, we request the use of a large number of target drones. If the navy thinks it's too expensive, we can also provide some small drones. The more the better, it is also a test of the air defense performance of our warships. What else?"

   "Although we are an air defense ship, we have rich experience in building warships. The noise of the ship is low, and it also has advantages in anti-submarine." Another technician said.

   "Well, yes, even though it is an anti-aircraft ship, it has to be anti-submarine when needed. We have to show our advantages in anti-submarine."

  The meeting lasted until late at night, and in the early morning of the next day, the chartered flight of Mingzhou Group flew to the capital.

  In order to avoid suspicion, Qin Tao did not live in the old man's house, but lived in the guest house of the Gongzhufen compound with Yang Dawei and others.

  As soon as they settled down, someone came to visit.

   "Boss Qin, you guys are here too. I'm coming to chat with you, do you have time?"

  Looking at the person in front of him, Qin Tao nodded: "Of course, even if there are other things, I have to push them down. Director Sun, please come in!"

   Their bidding opponent, Sun Xuewen, the director of Bincheng Shipyard, actually came to visit Qin Tao on his own initiative. He didn't look like a competitor at all, but like a good friend.

   "President Qin, I heard that you have received a large number of orders for container ships?" Sun Xuewen knew that Qin Tao didn't like wasting time, so after entering the door, he directly entered the topic.

"That's right, we have already started designing a brand new 18,000-TEU container ship, but our berth is too busy, and we are currently considering expanding the Chongming Island shipyard... Director Sun, do you want a few orders? ?”

   Shipowners without container ships no longer trust 30 Heavy Industry, and all large orders for container ships have flown to Mingzhou Group! Some time ago, in order to show their favor to Mingzhou Group, 300 wanted to give the order of container ships as a gift to Mingzhou Group. Now it seems that it is a joke. What Mingzhou Group wants is not needed at all. Three zero delivery, the customer will be delivered directly to the door, why do you need three zero favors.

   Now being used as a favor by Mingzhou Group is not bad.

   "Boss Qin, if you can't digest these orders, we can also help you." Sun Xuewen said with a smile.

"Of course there is no problem with this, but we have to wait for a while. After our first ship is launched and put into normal operation, and the ship owner approves, we can distribute the next order. After all, we also have to ensure safe navigation. No. Made the mistakes of the islanders.”

   "Well, Mr. Qin, as long as you have this sentence is enough." Sun Xuewen said: "I will talk about it later when we need us."

   After speaking, Sun Xuewen stood up.

   "Why, Director Sun, are you leaving now?" Zhao Ling handed over a cup of tea: "You sit down first, and then talk."

"Boss Qin's time is precious, and I'm afraid it will delay his work. Anyway, this is the main reason for coming here." Sun Xuewen looked at Zhao Ling: "Mr. Zhao, I heard that you are going to help Mingzhou Group in the future. Boss Qin has You are a good wife, and your career will develop faster in the future."

   "What's delaying work, we don't have much work, let's go after having dinner together." Qin Tao said.

   "Yes, Director Sun, we will definitely keep in touch with each other frequently in the future. We will eat together and get to know each other well." Zhao Ling also spoke.

   Unable to withstand this enthusiasm, Sun Xuewen stayed, but he was not the only guest at the dinner table, Mr. Ben also came to join in the fun.

  The bidding unit and the suppliers sat together to eat and drink. What happened on the day before the bidding is amazing. If it is in other industries, the bidding unit is a deadly enemy. I don’t know what tricks they are playing in private.

However, in the shipbuilding industry, this kind of scene is not uncommon. After all, Mingzhou Group is already a leading enterprise in the shipbuilding industry. Domestic shipyards, large and small, all cooperate with Mingzhou Group. Relying on Mingzhou Group Relying on the market share vacated by the collapsing foreign shipyards, they all eat their mouths full of oil.

   "Old Ben, I heard that the cost of the four-way phased array radar has come down again?" Sun Xuewen asked.

"Yes, in the past, one-sided phased array radar cost 100 million yuan. Now, our technology has gradually matured, and the scrap rate has been greatly reduced. Now we are making four-sided phased array radar, which is about 100 million yuan." Ben Lao said: "However, It is still very expensive, and the target set by the Navy is to drop it by half, and we have to make all four sides of 50 million. We will work hard and we can still do it.”

   "Fifty million, it seems that the navy doesn't like us at all." Sun Xuewen said: "I guess our 052B is the only one."

"This is not necessarily the case." Qin Tao said: "If this bidding fails, you can also push this destroyer to the international market. The Navy will definitely not allow our 052C to be exported. It will be much easier for you, even if it is It is considered low-end domestically, but internationally, it is much better than those European warships, and there must be a market for it.”

   "At that time, I have to trouble Mr. Qin." Sun Xuewen raised his glass: "Come on, I'll do it first as a respect."

"By the way, Mr. Ben, our phased array radar technology needs to continue to be researched and developed. It is still air-cooled, and it is considered mature. Next, we have to work on liquid-cooled ones. In the future, our four-sided shield must be Just be flat."

  When the radar is working, it emits a lot of heat. If the heat is not taken away, the radar will soon fail to work due to overheating.

  Domestic phased array radar first uses air-cooling method, which is to blow cold air to take away the heat. This design is very simple and the work is very stable. However, it has one of the biggest problems: the ability to resist damage on the battlefield.

  Once a shrapnel hits the radome and leaks a big hole, it will destroy the internal air flow. Even if the radar front is not damaged, it will soon fail to work due to overheating.

The defect of liquid cooling is complicated, because the liquid cooling pipeline needs to be deployed behind the T/R component, which greatly increases the complexity of the system. When the production of T/R components is not stable at first, liquid cooling should be considered It is meaningless, and now, you can start.

   "Of course, we have already started to develop liquid-cooled components. After all, the radar prepared for your J-31A is going to be liquid-cooled in order to have better performance."

  The air-cooled phased array is the first in China. In foreign countries, such as the phased array radar used on the F-22 fighter jet, it is liquid-cooled. Airborne radars have been liquid-cooled for a long time, so now, they also plan to develop a liquid-cooled phased array airborne radar for the J-31A.

   Several people chatted while talking, and this matter was also spread to the Yellow House, and everyone was amazed.

"Have you heard that the bidding for the fourth-generation aircraft in the air force is very fierce, and some people even proposed to transfer Lao Song to the capital and transfer Li Ming there. This trick has aroused the disgust of many people, Lao Song Let’s just let it go, don’t go anywhere, just build aircraft in 611. In contrast, our navy’s bidding has no contradictions or conspiracy at all, which is too strange.”

"What's so strange about this is that even if there is no warship manufacturing in Bincheng Shipyard, it can still rely on the opportunities brought by Mingzhou Group to develop. Our country's shipbuilding industry has developed so well, isn't it all the leader of Mingzhou Group Is it the leader? By the way, the container ship that was making a fuss a while ago broke into two pieces, tell me, is there any shadow of Mr. Qin?"

   "Hey, don't talk nonsense! Can you maliciously speculate on the heroes of the country like this?"

   "Old Wu didn't say anything, why are you losing your temper, Old Wang? I'm just talking."

   "Old Wu has already gone to get the mop, and he is going to beat you with a mop."

  There is a happy atmosphere in the office.

  On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the first day of work, the meeting in the Yellow House was officially held.

  The meeting room was full of people, and a large number of naval leaders sat on the rostrum.

  For the navy, this meeting is of great importance. Destroyers are the backbone of the navy. Once the model is determined, the construction of destroyers will be carried out in large quantities. This is a major event related to the development of the navy.

Wu Shengli sat in the middle of the rostrum and presided over the meeting. He looked at the people in the meeting room and said, "Everyone, I think of the meeting ten years ago when we developed the 052 destroyer. The destroyer project at that time , Let our navy be very excited, we finally have gas turbine warships, we finally have anti-aircraft missiles, we finally have towed body sonar. Looking back now, the 052 destroyer has long been behind. Now, our navy will have area air defense A warship with advanced capabilities will have a warship equipped with more advanced anti-submarine helicopters and a warship with its own power system! This is a new beginning, a new journey!"

  Everyone is filled with emotion.

  Leader Wu is right. In the past ten years, the navy has developed too fast, and all of this is due to one person.

   At the beginning, people frequently looked at Qin Tao. Then, they were surprised to find that Mr. Qin had brought one more person with him than before. His wife, Zhao Ling, was sitting next to him, holding a briefcase in her hand. She looked like an assistant!

   Everyone is inside the system, and they all know Zhao Ling, but now, the Zhao Ling dressed by this assistant is very different from the former military Zhao Ling, more mature, more stable, and full of the charm of a mature woman!

   President Qin married a good wife.

  Actually, before coming here, Zhao Ling hesitated. After all, she is the daughter of Wu Shengli. Is it appropriate to openly appear in the bidding? Will it be gossip.

  Qin Tao dispelled her worries with a few words: You are a daughter and I am a son-in-law. We both have a father. To avoid suspicion, I can't go either. Anyway, we rely on strength! Besides, our bidding opponents dare not say anything, let alone those who have nothing to do with it.

"In today's meeting, the first thing we need to determine is the process of warship comparison testing." Wu Shengli continued: "We divide warships into power, weapons, and comfort, conduct separate tests, and summarize them in a huge table. Here, it is composed of objective data and subjective scoring, and finally, the one with the highest score will become the successful project of this bidding."

   This seems fair and reasonable, but everyone present knows that this is actually a matter of going through a process.

The Navy didn’t want 052B at all, but had to make a compromise because of the cost problem at that time. Now, the 14th Institute has greatly reduced the manufacturing cost of the four-sided phased array radar. Therefore, 052B has not continued to purchase Necessary, this model is likely to be the size of only one warship.

  The details of the form were printed on the big screen, and everyone had a sample of the form in their hands, so they studied it carefully.

   "Do you have any opinions on this test form? If so, you can submit it now." Wu Shengli looked down.

   "Our Mingzhou Group is very confident in the destroyers we build, so we want to increase the difficulty." Zhao Ling said.

   This is the first time that Zhao Ling met everyone with a new identity after changing jobs. Therefore, Qin Tao wanted Zhao Ling to perform more, so he gave her the task of speaking.

   "Yes, please speak." Wu Shengli nodded.

"First of all, we all know that the era of stealth weapons has arrived. When our navy patrols the sea, we will not only encounter various conventional targets, but also may encounter stealth targets. Therefore, we suggest that in this test , add the content of stealth machine search."

  Everyone was startled, and then realized that this is to make their 052C show off!

The 052C uses a four-sided phased array radar, which is arranged on the front bridge, and the rear sub-mast is vacated, where a special meter-wave radar antenna is installed. According to the technical summary of relevant departments, this thing is not only cheap, In addition to the advantages of low power consumption, long-term power-on for air security, etc., it also has an important task: discovering stealth aircraft.

  052B uses small shields on all sides of the bridge mast and a large rotating shield at the back, which greatly saves costs, but at the same time, it also makes it impossible to install meter wave radars, so it cannot cope with the challenge of stealth aircraft.

   Therefore, winning the bid for 052C relied on actual strength, not nepotism.

  If this item is added, the final score of 052C will look better, and the defeat of 052B will be even worse.

  Thinking of this, they all looked at Sun Xuewen with pity, and found that Sun Xuewen was smiling wryly there, but it was just a wry smile, not angry, nor jumping out to accuse Mingzhou Group of not practicing martial arts.

   "Whether to add this content, let our subjective evaluation team of fifty people vote by show of hands." Wu Shengli said.

  So, the fifty arms were raised in unison.

In this team, there are forty members of the Navy. Of course, they hope to monitor the stealth aircraft, and they must support it. The remaining ten members are all veterans of the shipbuilding industry. They have lofty values ​​for the country and the army. A sense of mission and responsibility, of course, will not object.

"Okay, this one is approved. Considering our current equipment situation, let's invite the J-31A as a test aircraft. It just so happens that we can also see how the J-31A's stealth performance is." Wu Shengli said arrive.

At this time, everyone at the scene did not know how shocked the navy was by the results of this test, so much so that the navy decided to purchase 20 J-31A on the spot as a supplement to the navy's carrier-based aircraft force. Make sure, on the next aircraft carrier, the number of J-31A will account for half of the number of carrier-based aircraft!

"Second, we are testing an air defense destroyer this time. Therefore, we need to focus on air defense capabilities. The Navy only plans to send two target drones for the test, which cannot simulate actual combat at all. We request to dispatch ten fighter planes, twenty Target drones, 30 military drones, and 40 civilian aircraft models form a hundred targets, approaching our warship from different directions, different heights and speeds, to test the destroyer's real resistance to saturation attacks ability."

  One hundred goals, this is against the sky! Everyone is excited. These tests are almost all aimed at the weak point of 052B. The rotating phased array radar on that side must not be refreshed!

   "Will this be a little dangerous?" Finally someone began to object.

"Our fighter jets are all at high altitude. During the test, we only need to maintain supervision and not attack." Zhao Ling said: "Military drones and model airplanes are at mid-altitude, while target drones are at ultra-low altitude. In terms of flight status, if the navy is willing to spend money on target aircraft and let us shoot targets with live ammunition, we only need to use the target aircraft with the lowest flying altitude.”

  Wu Shengli nodded: "Our subjective evaluation team can choose a low-altitude target at will."

   PS: There was a typo in front of it, and Dasumi was written as Dayu. I am very sorry, and it has been corrected.
