Chapter 94 Quote
Although the turtle-level multi-functional combat platform was still a distance away from the stands, it still caused quite a lot of chaos. People were panicking and speculating what was wrong with the ship? Is this new technology having major flaws?
At this time, Ruks had already stood up regardless of his image.
Just now, he felt that he had lost the order for the Imperial Navy. The sailfish-class light frigate was already the limit of this type of warship design. It was perfect and impeccable, but he encountered the turtle-class with a brand new power system.
Sailfish level is already behind.
At this time, the sudden "out of control" of the turtle-level multi-purpose combat platform made Ruks see the Imperial Navy orders fly back to his hands.
"Did you see it? An engine with a new concept is not so easy to manufacture, especially this technology that directly gasifies seawater, there are many problems in design and manufacturing processes. A small mistake may cause the entire ship to lose control.
It takes a long way to go to become a mature battleship.
Governor, Lord Marshal... Sailfish-class light frigate is the battleship you need. Although the Turtle-class engine technology is advanced, the risks are too great.
I suggest…”
At this time, Daliang interrupted Ruks: "Mr. Ruks, please do not comment too early before you see the truth of the matter.
My warship is named as a multi-functional combat platform, not a multi-functional combat platform at sea because it can not only sail at sea, but also on land, it is still a very powerful heavy support combat unit.
Marquis, Marshal.
Next is the turtle-level multi-functional combat platform, which has the ability to operate on land. As you can see, my warship can not only sail on the sea, but also pass through rocks, sands, swamps, rivers, lakes, and gentle grasslands.
Of course, when driving on land, the turtle class needs to consume its own reserve water, so the maximum range is only 400 kilometers and the speed is 50 kilometers per hour.
Although there is no way to go deep into land, it can carry a fully armed mechanized battalion at a time, land at any location on the coastline and threaten targets within 400 kilometers.
…”
Marshal Hopkin's eyes lit up completely.
The Marshal was born in the army, and the Florminke Empire was a military politician. When it was in its peak, it could cross the Desert Desert to compete with the Eastern countries and poach Marcellus.
The Army is the label of the Flormink Empire and also the honor of the Empire.
However, the Navy... was like a stepmother. Although the imperial emperor attached great importance to the construction of the Navy's fleet, Marshal Hopkin felt very uncomfortable when he was appointed as the Minister of the Navy.
Now, someone told him that "the navy can also go to land to conquer cities and land."
The morale of the army in Marshal Hopkin's naval uniform was burning.
He also stood up and looked at the turtle-class multi-functional combat platform on the beach, and the land did not stop it. The warship continued to move when everyone thought it was a malfunction. White mist from steam spewed out from all over the rubber skirt, and the engine and propeller roared.
The turtle-level multi-functional combat platform shows its movement power on land. The shocking feeling created by a landable warship made everyone stand up.
Anyone who knows a little about military knowledge realizes that when such warships officially enter the naval sequence, no coast in the world will be safe.
It not only brought about changes in ship design ideas, but also brought about a revolution in world naval warfare strategy.
Now... the Flormink Empire Navy Fleet will be the first to equip this kind of amphibious warship. The Blackfire Company, which designed this kind of warship, is located in Saroyan and has a close cooperative relationship with the Empire.
The maritime power of the world's maritime power will face a major challenge.
After watching the turtle-class multi-functional combat platform return to the water, Marshal Hopkin excitedly said to Daliang: "Master Liang, I apologize to you for my ignorance. Your warship is too powerful... The Imperial Navy decided to choose only the turtle-class multi-functional combat platform of Black Fire Company.
You can quote. If the price is right, the Imperial Navy can add the amount of warship purchases. In addition, I think the Army will also be interested in the turtle-class, so I will introduce it to my colleagues."
Although the Imperial Navy Fleet's procurement of warships was somewhat tortuous this time, the result was still the same as Daliang expected. The advantages of hovercraft in this level are too great, and the alchemy technology provided by the Big Tombs allowed the defects of the hovercraft to be perfectly solved.
With the orders from the Imperial Navy, the Blackfire Shipyard can train its own ship workers and ship designers.
Daliang quoted: "The initial model of the turtle-class multi-functional combat platform, that is, the naked ship, 170,000 pounds per ship. If you buy it, you can install weapons and equipment according to your needs...
The Blackfire Shipyard can also design a special equipment layout plan for Heli space utilization based on the indicators given by the Imperial Navy and the weapons and equipment provided. The price of customized ships will be discussed again, but the total cost should not exceed 250,000 pounds."
Marshal Hopkin couldn't believe his ears, a turtle class of 170,000 pounds! The price is only one-quarter of the price of a sailfish-class light frigate. Although the initial model of a turtle class was a naked ship, the number of military equipment produced by the Empire could cost a lot of money, which was simply a bargain price.
It is a custom-made model of 250,000 pounds, which is far lower than the conventional light frigate.
This is a warship that can be landed, how can it be sold so cheaply?
Marshal Hopkin felt that his ears might have heard it wrong: "Master Liang. Is it really a turtle-class multi-functional combat platform of 170,000 pounds? You should know... The Sailfish-class light frigate at the Rooks Shipyard is 670,000 pounds per ship."
When Rux stood there, he couldn't help but tremble when he heard Marshal Hopkin's name beeping.
Today, Ruks experienced great sorrow and great ups and downs. At this time, the dust settled, and his identity seemed to be hollowed out. He knew that Ruks' company was about to face a cold winter, and he didn't know if he could survive...
Daliang smiled and said, "That's right, it's 170,000 pounds per ship. The most valuable thing about this ship is its underlying engine assembly, which accounts for 80% of the entire ship.
The hull part is not valuable. You don’t need to go into the water, you can directly weld steel plates on land. After the construction is made, you can go into the sea and open it...
The engine and powertrain accessories can be sold separately, not only for repairs, but also for some other types of hovercraft.
Marshal, how many turtle-class do you plan to want?"
