Alien Industrial Tyrannosaurus-Rex - Chapter 716
Easily reach a high speed of 40 knots.
The entire battleship is still without any ups and downs.
It felt like a sharp machete cut into the solidified butter.
The bow fiercely split the waves and splashed continuously onto the deck. After a while, all the water on the deck was splashed.
This is a flaw as always.
It’s all because the diameter of the propeller is too large.
The height of the deck is not enough. There is simply no way to stop all the waves.
Especially after the speed exceeds 40 knots, there will be a lot of waves hitting the deck. If someone is standing on the bow, it is likely to be thrown over by the waves.
Of course, no one is so stupid.
Isn’t it just looking for death to stand on the bow deck at this time?
The noise of the propeller is also very scary. Fully exceeded 150 decibels. The sonar can be heard from thousands of miles away.
It is estimated that the Kuafu-class battleship just came out of the dock, and it was known from the monitoring center of a certain country on the easternmost shore of the Pacific Ocean.
It is estimated that all ships and submarines in the entire North Pacific are also known.
it’s OK. There is no need for confidentiality.
At the beginning of the design, the Kuafu-class battleship never thought about secret operations.
In these days, there are reconnaissance satellites everywhere in the sky. It is almost impossible to hide the move. Wang Bu’an didn’t bother to waste that thought.
Instead of pursuing stealth performance, it is better to pursue its speed and attack power.
“Continue to speed up.”
“The speed is 50 knots.”
Guan Hongru calmly ordered.
Two Rock 900 engines have steadily increased their power.
Correspondingly, the speed of battleships has increased again. Gradually approached 50 knots.
At this time, I finally felt slight bumps.
The speed is too fast. Over 80 kilometers per hour.
After all, the sea is not completely calm. There will definitely be ups and downs.
Although it is a light wave of only one or two meters, it should not be a major problem for the warship. However, the speed of the battleship was too high.
At a speed of 80 kilometers per hour, he can set off a five-meter-high wave by himself!
The front wave was broken by the bow, compressed, and the resistance was also great.
This wave resistance has the greatest impact on the speed of warships.
If it is an ordinary diesel engine or a gas turbine, it is already out of power at this time.
Fortunately, two Rock 900 engines can output 2.7 million horsepower.
Such a terrifying power completely crushed the resistance of making waves.
However, no one dares to take it lightly.
Chen Xiangmin also looked serious.
The thing he worries most is the cracking of the hull.
Although it is a battleship, although the armor is very thick and the structure is very strong, it dare not be careless.
The power of sea water cannot be ignored. Once the ship’s body cracks and the sea water rushes in, it is an extremely deadly threat to the battleship itself.
The faster the speed, the stronger the destructive power of the waves. The penetration of some waves is no less than a cannonball.
Anything that is slightly weak may be crushed by it.
Fortunately, no.
The speed of 50 knots is still stable.
In general, there are only very slight fluctuations. It is completely within the acceptable range.
But those saber guards are bad.
Neither the 054-class frigate nor the 056-class frigate can keep up.
Their top speed is only about 45 knots!
If it exceeds this speed, there is a danger of disintegration.
Their hull strength, of course, cannot be compared with battleships. Especially the keel. At most it is grade five hard alloy.
Due to the large-scale construction needs, cost must be considered. The cost must be compressed.
Will the battleship be in danger without the frigate following?
No need to worry about this.
There is a J-16 fighter squadron to protect it!
A full 24 fighter jets hovered over the battleship to monitor the surrounding airspace.
So, what if an enemy submarine strikes?
No need to worry about this.
The radar of the Kuafu-class battleship is very advanced.
On earth, no submarine can escape its detection. Including nuclear submarines thousands of miles away.
The operating depth of conventional submarines is generally about 150 meters. In front of the Kuafu-class battleship’s radar, there were all fireflies in the dark, and it couldn’t be more clear.
No, the big radar screen has already marked the locations of all surrounding ships and submarines.
Almost all submarines avoided the Kuafu-class battleship.
joke……
This is a horrible monster of 120,000 tons!
It is equipped with a large number of anti-submarine rockets and depth charges.
Besides, behind the battleship, there are so many frigates. They are the best killers against submarines. How dare the submarine approach easily?
As for the various anti-submarine planes and helicopters that fly around the sky 24 hours a day, they are also their nemesis.
Especially professional anti-submarine helicopters pose a great threat to submarines.
“Continue to speed up.”
“The speed is 60 knots.”
Three hours later, Guan Hongru ordered again.
The power of the two Rock 900 engines has gradually increased to more than 80%.
Obviously, the speed of 60 knots, for 2.7 million horsepower, is also a little test. After all, the wave resistance caused by the increase in speed is too great.
The ups and downs of the battleship finally became very obvious.
The waves splitting from the bow are also higher.
It leaped upward for a while, then fell sharply downward.
Occasionally, the bow of the ship will sink extremely close to the sea level. Only two or three meters in height.
The tumbling waves began to beat on the bow deck, sweeping like a flood.
Fortunately, there is no debris on the deck.
Otherwise, they will be swept clean directly by the fierce waves.
“Wow!”
“Wow!”
The bow plunged deep into the sea again.
This time, it was almost submerged by sea water. I haven’t lifted it for a long time.
After a few minutes, the bow came out of the sea again. It seemed to have stirred up half of the sea.
The sea water flowing from the deck is two or three meters deep.
However, the battleship was not afraid.
What is such a small matter?
The speed continued to increase.
Gradually approach 70 knots.
This is the limit speed of the two engines.
If you want to exceed 70 knots, you have to turn on the other two engines to overcome the wave resistance.
Under the squeeze of a speed of 70 knots, the wave-making resistance reached an appalling height.
More than 65% of the engine’s power is actually useless.
It is used to fight against the resistance of Xingbo.
What really pushes the battleship forward is only about 30% of the power.
The speed of 70 knots is also a very big test for the battleship itself.
Will its structure disintegrate?
Will its keel show metal fatigue?
Will there be cracks in the welds of riveted armor? Could there be sea water seeping in?
These are unknown answers. It takes a long time to test.
For the time being, the speed is to maintain 70 knots.
“Director Chen, let’s go eat!”
“Okay. Let’s go!”
Wang Buyan and Chen Xiangmin entered the battleship restaurant.
The area of the restaurant is still very large. It can hold more than 300 people at the same time.
The battleship’s restaurant serves meals 24 hours a day. You can come and eat anytime. Unlimited. Unlimited. It is estimated that the big stomach king likes the most.
In fact, the work of naval officers and soldiers is very hard. The physical labor intensity of many positions is very high.
For example, transporting shells from the ammunition warehouse to the autoloader is super heavy.
Those shells weighing more than two tons require six people to work together to move them smoothly.
Without the fuze installed, the shell will not explode.
However, if an accident happened to a shell, the consequences would be very serious.
The two-ton big guy, if he loses control, he still has it?
Just roll around and the consequences would be disastrous.
What can stop a two-ton object from rolling? There is almost none.
If the personnel rushed forward, they would be crushed by heavy shells. It’s like a pancake.
The dishes are pretty plentiful.
The portion is also quite adequate.
After eating a full meal, I was ready to shoot live ammunition.
Wang Bu’an is very interested in this project.
After all, this is a 499mm super heavy gun! A caliber that only warships can be equipped with.
It’s not impossible on land. But with such a large caliber, the weight of the whole gun is definitely amazing. It must be more than 100 tons.
In fact, the weight of a turret with triple 499mm heavy guns installed on the Kuafu class battleship exceeds 1,500 tons. With three turrets, the total weight is 4,500 tons.
This has been the result of many reductions by Wang Bu’an. The protective armor of the turret was reduced from a thickness of 750 mm to only 150 mm. Otherwise, the weight of the three turrets alone would be more than 10,000 tons. The total weight of the three turrets of the Yamato ship during World War II exceeded 12,000 tons.
Unfortunately, the era of battleships is outdated.
In an era when aircraft and missiles dominated the battlefield, battleships were the targets.
If there is no air supremacy, no matter how powerful a battleship is, it will only be deflated. The age of battleships has passed.
Only the Kuafu class battleship is an exception.
It is used to deal with the so-called “deep sea monster”…
In fact, Wang Bu’an had several times euphemistically suggested canceling the construction of the Kuafu-class battleship, which was deemed unnecessary.
After all, the so-called “deep sea monsters” were created by Wang Bu’an himself. They can’t be an enemy of Huaxia~www.mtlnovel.com~ As for the alien alien creatures, the Kuafu-class battleships are also useless for heroes! What effect can a cannon hit on mosquitoes? However, Wang Buan dared not tell this secret.
If he revealed the so-called “deep sea monster”, he actually controlled it. What are the consequences you say?
It is estimated that Zhang Pingye, Wei Lizhu and others are the first to be good-looking.
You are the public enemy of the people all over the world!
It is estimated that even Huang Ruoxi could not protect him.
Therefore, in the end, he can only stop it.
Fortunately, his suggestion still has some effect. The superior decided to build one first to see the effect.
If the effect is not good, there is no follow-up plan.
If it works well…
Haha, let’s watch live ammunition first!
