Up to now, the army and air force have some advanced weapons, but the navy is still backward. It relies on the brigade level to support the portal, but the brigade level has been unable to support the sky of the Han country.
There are no air defense missiles, and the naval guns are quite backward. The Han country urgently needs to introduce advanced weapons.
Qin Guan knew the Navy's eagerness in this regard. At the same time, Qin Guan also knew that the construction of the Navy could not be done overnight.
Seeing that everyone was watching the sea javelin air defense missile system, major general Woodward knew the weakness of the Han people. As long as they had demand, their own side could sell it.
But I don't know why the Han side didn't continue to talk last time. This time, we must win the contract of type 42 destroyer.
They stopped for a long time in front of the sea javelin air defense missile. Finally, with the guidance, they came to the bridge.
Standing on the tall bridge, you can see the surrounding conditions. Everyone is observing the advanced equipment on it with interest.
Whether a warship is advanced depends on its command system, its own brigade level, or the command ceremony. It doesn't even have a digital ballistic computer, but people here have realized systematization. Look at those radar equipment and sonar equipment, which are extremely advanced.
"Our warship is equipped with a large number of radar and sonar equipment and has perfect air defense and anti submarine capabilities. It is the main force of ocean operations. If you order destroyers from us, it will certainly make the Navy become one of the main navies in the world."
Qin Guan stood on the bridge and looked at the port in front of him. He suddenly said, "is that a nuclear submarine? Can we visit the nuclear submarine?"
The naval base here is the main base for surface ships and submarines. Although there are submarine caverns nearby, some submarines are moored on the surface for convenience at some times.
Like now.
From here, you can clearly see the elongated water drop shaped nuclear submarine, which is the fast class of the second generation attack nuclear submarine of NiuGuo people.
As the successor of the warrior attack nuclear submarine, it is equipped with new sonar equipment and other electronic equipment to improve its detection ability. It can not only undertake regional defense operations, but also carry out attack missions.
The first ship of fast class attack nuclear submarine was started in Vickers Shipbuilding Engineering Co., Ltd. on June 6, 1969, launched on September 7, 1971 and put into service on April 17, 1973. A total of 6 were built.
Now, when Qin Guan mentioned this, everyone looked at the past and looked at the nuclear submarine from a distance. Their eyes were full of expectation.
There are also nuclear submarines in the Han Dynasty. However, the nuclear submarines in the Han Dynasty were made under the condition of being discredited. That is, they solved the problem of whether there is something or not. They have backward performance and loud noise. They belong to the type of falling behind when they are just equipped.
However, Niu is not. Over the years, Niu is also at an advanced level in the construction of nuclear submarines.
If you can go up and have a look, it will certainly be an eye opener. After you go back, it will also be of great benefit to the improvement of your own nuclear submarines.
Everyone immediately transferred their interest from the type 42 destroyer. Looking at the nuclear submarine, it looked like a shark and would open its mouth at any time.
Major general Woodward shook his head: "sorry, that kind of nuclear submarine is related to our military secrets. You can't step on it for the time being. If you want to see it, we can see the Oberon class later. It's not far from it."
Nuclear submarines, which are the most important weapons of the country, can't show people at all, even if they are friendly with the Han country now.
In contrast, conventional submarines are different.
Conventional submarines, that is, diesel electric submarines, use diesel engines in the vent pipe state or water surface state, and use batteries underwater. Due to the limited power of batteries, they can only be used underwater for a short time, and they are easy to be found as long as the vent pipe is exposed.
Therefore, under the current technology, the performance of conventional submarines has been very limited and belongs to backward and eliminated goods. Qin Guan is optimistic about the supporter level. It is the last conventional submarine in NiuGuo. In terms of appearance, it is almost the same as nuclear submarines.
However, this submarine is still in the design stage, and the construction will begin in 1983. Therefore, the conventional submarine in service in the Royal Navy is the Oberon class.
Because it was built very early, the Oberon class submarine adopts the conventional surface ship line during World War II, which looks quite backward.
The bow is still narrow and pointed, and the command console enclosure is located in the middle of the hull; The front edge of the console enclosure is vertical, the rear edge is slightly inclined, and the whole is smooth and round; The bow horizontal rudder design is adopted, and the horizontal rudder can be folded upward; The bow of the boat is equipped with a sonar cabin with a big nose, which looks like the big nose of a clown.
This external feature is quite obvious. Of course, many designers are stupid. This is a helpless choice. Six 533mm torpedo launch tubes are installed in the narrow space of the bow, so the sonar cabin can only be installed on it.
The bottom of the hull is designed to be flat and straight, which is convenient for sitting on the seabed; The stern follows the design idea of type 21 submarine, double shaft and double propeller.
If it is at the same level as Han's own submarines, it is naturally insincere to let our own side see such submarines.
Qin Guan could only shake his head helplessly: "we are not interested in this kind of submarine in the 1960s. We just want to go on a nuclear submarine to have a look."
After a pause, Qin Guan continued, "if we are satisfied, we can order two more."
Hearing this, major general Woodward opened his mouth. These Han people really have a big appetite. Do they even want to buy nuclear submarines? However, he shook his head: "sorry, this submarine is our highest military secret and can't be opened to you. If you want to see it, I can take you to see our supporter class submarine."
Although the construction of the supporter level has not started yet, it has been almost designed. The Royal Navy just has no funds for the time being. With funds, it can be built immediately.
Since the other party has a special liking for submarines, it's better to take them to have a look.
Compared with the Oberon class, the design of the supporter class submarine is completely modeled on the shape of the nuclear submarine, which has a better underwater speed. Of course, the specific internal structure must be different.
Nuclear submarines cannot be sold. Conventional submarines are no problem. The other party also said about submarines last time. Now just take the other party to have a look.
At this time, Woodward didn't know that with such a flicker, the type 42 destroyer was delayed again. In fact, Qin Guan didn't intend to want such a destroyer at all, nor did he intend to want the sea javelin on it.
I've seen it several times this time. The people of Eagle country should have something to say! I'm waiting for Kidd to take the bait.
