Chapter 186: Three Discs
Originally, the construction of "Luchuan No. 1" might have to wait for some time.
Because Lu Chuan needed to lead the scientific research bureau to complete a lot of data and design the plan before starting manufacturing.
But now, since a large number of mosquito-catching systems have been sold to the outside world, the industry is urging the scientific research bureau every day to start manufacturing Lu Chuan No. 1 as soon as possible.
Li Shengdong knew that Daxia had too much money now and felt uncomfortable not being able to spend it.
So Li Shengdong's idea is to build Lu Chuan No. 1 as quickly as possible.
The previous plan was that it might take a year or more to complete the construction of Luchuan No. 1.
But at this time, many people suggested that they could use Daxia's existing warship design drawings to copy a warship on Devil's Lake as quickly as possible, and then modify it.
This will not only greatly reduce the time required for construction, but also reduce the cost a lot, and there is no need to consider too much about safety.
After all, most of the technologies used are already mature and there is no need to conduct various experiments.
However, this proposal was immediately strongly opposed by Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan said to Li Shengdong: "The reason why we want to build a warship from scratch is to give this warship enough advantages in space. If it is still the same as before, or the same as the Ye Xiao No. 1 of Yingjiang Country, then I
I feel it is simply a waste and insult to the purple element.”
Li Shengdong sighed and said: "I understand what you said, but you also need to know that this is equivalent to redesigning an aircraft. For any country in the world, this is no joke. This may
It takes a lot of time and may not be successful.”
"Of course I know. I even thought that the drawings needed to redesign Lu Chuan-1 might weigh several tons, but I still hope that my superiors can trust me and trust our Scientific Research Bureau. We are sure that within one year,
Allowing Lu Chuan-1 to enter space."
Li Shengdong hesitated for a moment, and then asked Lu Chuan: "Do you have a prototype of Lu Chuan No. 1 design in your mind now?"
Lu Chuan took out the notebook he always carried with him directly in front of him.
After opening it, he placed it in front of Li Shengdong.
Li Shengdong looked at a sketch drawn in his notebook and frowned.
"This...what is this thing you drew?"
Lu Chuan smiled and said, "This is the prototype in my mind, and it is probably what Lu Chuan No. 1 will look like when it is completed."
"You call this thing Lu Chuan No. 1? Call it a battleship?"
It turned out that Lu Chuan's notebook drew a pattern that no one would associate with a battleship or even the appearance of a ship.
When I saw this pattern on my notebook, the lower part looked like an aircraft.
But the upper part is confusing.
Because there is a huge disk painted on the front half, and two slightly smaller disks painted on the two sides at the back.
Li Shengdong pointed to the three disks and asked: "This... what are these three disks you drew?"
Lu Chuan said: "The big disc in the front is the main control center in my idea, similar to the operation room on the current aircraft carrier. The two discs in the back are the engine. The location of the engine can also be used as fuel and weapons storage.
Location."
Li Shengdong frowned and said: "The appearance is quite sci-fi, but... what is your reason for designing it like this?"
Lu Chuan explained: "The warships we design in the future that can enter space must have the ability to fight against the honeycomb system, so I think the combat capability of this kind of warship on the sea is not the most important, so it is designed like this.
The design can completely seal the internal space, making it more suitable for flying in outer space."
"Then why don't you design these three disks to have a larger internal space, instead of designing them to be flat on top?"
"The advantage of this design is that when it needs to return to the sea for combat, our fighter jets can be parked on the top of the disc, which means it can be used like an aircraft carrier."
This explanation made Li Shengdong suddenly realize.
He nodded and said, "Yes, I think your idea is very good. I will now show this design sketch to Commander Guangxi to seek his approval."
Unexpectedly, Lu Chuan stopped him immediately and said, "Ah, tell Commander Guang now, this sketch... was drawn casually when I was sitting on the toilet and thinking a few days ago. Isn't it a bit too hasty? I was still thinking about it.
It will need to be improved over time, and besides, this is just a look at the moment.”
Li Shengdong said: "Have you ever thought about modifying the appearance of this thing in the past few days?"
"It seems...it seems that I haven't thought of anything that needs to be modified yet."
"Tch...that's it, it just means that the idea that suddenly popped up in your head is the best. I think this can be set as our goal, just follow this direction.
I trust you."
After saying that, before Lu Chuan could explain, Li Shengdong closed his notebook and went to find Guang Guangye.
Guang Guangye saw Lu Chuan's design, and at first glance, his reaction was exactly the same as Li Shengdong's.
But after Li Shengdong's patient explanation, he understood Lu Chuan's intention.
He immediately said to Li Shengdong: "Go back and tell Lu Chuan that I support his current idea, and you must also tell your scientific research bureau that the time is a little later, which we can accept. I believe that the Lu Chuan No. 1 designed by Lu Chuan will definitely be better than
The Night Owl No. 1 of their Yingjiang Country is much stronger."
At this time, Lu Chuan received the full support of Guangdong Industry, which was equivalent to the support of the entire Daxia Kingdom's top management.
After determining the design direction of Lu Chuan No. 1, we immediately began to improve the design.
More than three months later, thanks to the full support of all aspects of Daxia Kingdom.
After the unremitting efforts of the Scientific Research Bureau, the design drawings of Lu Chuan No. 1 were sufficiently perfected.
One large and two small, round white objects appeared on Devil's Lake.
Of course, after the Yingjiang Kingdom learned that the Great Xia Congress was building its own aircraft on Devil's Lake, it never stopped monitoring Devil's Lake.
Almost every day, several photos taken by spy satellites are placed on the desk of the Minister of Defense of the Eagle Country.
On this day, seeing the photos on the desktop, these three circles made the Minister of Defense fall into deep thought.
Because he had no idea what these three round objects were used for.
He immediately called Hunter, who stared at the three disks and said, "Could it be that... Daxia wants to build three warships at a time?"
The Secretary of Defense shook his head and said: "No, absolutely not. According to the results of our spy satellite scanning, the three objects in the underwater part of Devil's Lake are connected to each other, that is to say, they are a whole."
