Following Wu Shengli's words, the plasma cutting machine began to cut the first steel plate, and the construction of 051C officially kicked off!
Zhou Yongfei was extremely excited.
Although Qin Tao is the general person in charge of this warship, with Qin Tao's style, he often travels outside, so this warship must designate several deputies to take charge.
Yang Dawei and Zhou Yongfei were assigned to be in charge of this warship.
Yang Dawei didn't say that after all, he came from the Ship Design Institute and is now the head of the R&D Department. There is no problem for him to be in charge. However, Zhou Yongfei is different. He has almost reached the sky in one step.
He knew that this was Qin Tao's special care for him, so he made up his mind to do it well! Anyway, Cong Ju is no longer busy now and can take care of his family. He will devote himself to the construction of this warship!
The eastern sun shines on the shipyard and on the empty slipway. Soon, a brand new warship will appear here!
After the ceremony, everyone returned to the conference room and sat on the chairs. Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao in front of him and said, "Taozi, the construction of this warship has started, but the S-300 system supporting it has not yet been secured.
."
This was the first time the navy had done this. After all, the air defense pressure was too great. Wu Shengli was already urging Qin Tao.
Qin Tao nodded: "Well, there is always a way, we have to wait."
"Wait? How long do you have to wait?" Wu Shengli picked up the tea cup and blew the tea leaves while looking at Qin Tao with urging eyes: "I remember that you said before that you would get a batch of Pajero off-road vehicles for the navy.
The day lilies are all cold and I haven’t seen the car.”
"Wait until..." Qin Tao can't wait until the Prophecy Emperor. In another half month, the Red Empire will completely collapse. By then, there will be great chaos and opportunities everywhere, so he can go there again.
At this time, the big brother rang. Qin Tao picked up the big brother and listened to the sound inside.
"What? There is a cargo ship transporting cars, asking if it belongs to us?" Qin Tao was a little confused: "What is the origin of the other party?"
"Logovaz Motor Company."
Logovaz? Why is this name so familiar? Qin Tao suddenly thought of something and asked excitedly: "Is it Pajero and Mercedes-Benz Big G?"
"Yes, mainly these two models."
"Yes, we ordered it. However, our company purchased it for the navy. We will coordinate the navy personnel to pick up the goods." Qin Tao put down his mobile phone, feeling very excited.
When Qin Tao was on his honeymoon, he met Vitalia's father and ordered a batch of Pajeros and Mercedes-Benz Grand Gs. However, Qin Tao asked the other party to send them to the military port to load them together.
When you come back, you don't have to go through customs, you just need to report it.
It is estimated that this batch of things was very popular, and the territory of Lao Maozi was very chaotic, so the other party sent it directly to Qin Tao, but as a result, he had to go through an extra procedure.
"Dad, I have long said that there will be bread, everything will be there, just wait. Now, won't this be delivered to your door? A batch of Pajero off-road vehicles, do you want the Navy? If so, just send someone to the customs.
If not, I will declare it normally and sell it."
"Yes, of course I want it!" Wu Shengli put down the tea cup with excitement on his face: "I will send someone to pick it up immediately. After customs declaration, I will send it directly here!"
Pajero!
Nowadays, there is an extreme shortage of domestic military vehicles. Most of the navy's commuter vehicles are still 212s. Although the Cherokee is already being produced in the capital, the performance of this vehicle is not very good and the army does not like it.
In the 1980s, a batch of Pajeros were imported into the country. After entering the army, they immediately received praise. The car has a large space and a comfortable ride. Especially the quality is mature and reliable. It almost never breaks down. The appearance is even more powerful and domineering, making people unable to put it down.
.
Looking at Wu Shengli's look, Qin Tao smiled. He had never seen this before! What's so good about Mitsubishi Pajero? A Mercedes-Benz G that can have fun in the Forbidden City is the sign of a mature man. From now on, he doesn't have to ride in Santana.
Now, no matter where you go, you can drive a Mercedes-Benz G.
In the afternoon, a cargo ship docked. This was not a ro-ro ship specifically designed to transport cars, so a crane was needed to lift the car to the shore.
A group of navy soldiers are helping. After all, these vehicles belong to their navy.
"This painting is so weird, why is it gray?" someone asked.
"There is a protective film on the outside to protect the car paint. The inside is definitely not this color."
The first car was hoisted down, and someone immediately pounced on it. Sure enough, the gray part was just a layer of film. After tearing it off, it was military green inside!
The bright bumper protects the headlights and the like, and the military green body is covered with yellow raffia. This combination is so beautiful. The reflectors are also decorated with chrome, which sparkles in the sunset.
, there is also a thick spare tire at the rear.
It has to be said that the appearance design of Mitsubishi Pajero is still very classic. It has been prosperous for decades. It was not until the National V to National VI that the emissions failed to meet the standards. In the early 1990s, this domineering and powerful car
The appearance is most suitable for military use!
"This is still a high-end version." Qin Tao sighed as he looked at the V33 logo on the rear.
These goods had already been agreed to be exchanged for light industrial products. At that time, we only talked about the quantity, not the configuration at all, but this old friend was still interesting enough.
In this era, when buying a car, you basically don’t talk about the configuration. Take Huating’s best-selling Santana as an example. After it comes off the production line, it belongs to whose turn it is, and the configuration is what it is. You can buy a car if you can.
That’s great, but you still dare to force the configuration to be low?
This batch is all brand new Mitsubishi Pajero, belonging to the second generation, mainly divided into three models: V31, V32 and V33.
The first two models are low-end models. The V31 is a 2.4-liter 4G64 gasoline carburetor engine, and the V32 is a 2.6-liter 4G54 gasoline carburetor engine. They are both four-cylinder models, with high and low roof designs, and use ordinary part-time four-wheel drive.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! V33 is the top version of the second-generation Pajero. It is equipped with a 3.0-liter V6 engine code-named 6G72. It is powerful and also equipped with Pajero’s iconic first-generation Super Select Four
The drive system can freely switch between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive even at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, which is a unique weapon of Pajero.
At the same time, there is also a special large sunroof for hunting, the main driver is equipped with an eight-way electric seat, front row heating, etc. It is absolutely tall and classy.
"Well, that's right. This car will be my car from now on. Xiao Wang, you can drive this car from now on!" Wu Shengli said to his driver.
As a leader, Wu Shengli often travels outside. Even if he is equipped with an Audi, he often goes to the units below for inspections. They are all on dirt roads. Audis can easily scratch the chassis. He likes cars with high chassis. This
Pajero is really suitable.
The cars behind were still hanging down, and Wu Shengli stopped looking at other cars and fell in love with this one.
After saying that, Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao again and found that although Qin Tao had just circled the car and was very satisfied and said something, he was now running to look at other cars.
What kind of car is that?
It is also a boxy box car, but this car has more sharp edges and corners, without any roundness. Hey, what is the logo on the front of the car?
A circle with three crosses inside, isn’t that a Mercedes-Benz? When did Mercedes-Benz come out with this kind of car?
Wu Shengli was a little curious: "Taozi, what kind of car is this?"
"Mercedes-Benz Big G, the Pajeros here are all bought for your navy. Just get me a batch of light industrial products according to the proportion. I bought these big Gs myself, which means I have the honor of being a member of the Navy.
, I just saved a customs declaration fee." Qin Tao had already started to tear off the protective film on the outside of the Mercedes-Benz G. With a swishing sound, the black paint was revealed, and there was light inside the black. It was obvious at first glance.
Very high-end.
When he finished watching the Big G and then looked back at the Pajero, he immediately felt that the Pajero was no longer so fragrant. This car looked even more classy!
Gelandewagen, in German, means off-road vehicle. Therefore, the name is simple and clear. It is an off-road vehicle like Land Rover and Jeep. Although the off-road vehicle code-named G1 had already appeared before World War II, the modern Mercedes-Benz
G, we have to wait until the 1970s.
At that time, a certain oil country commissioned Mercedes-Benz to build an off-road vehicle. After all, the Mercedes-Benz brand is strong, and Mercedes-Benz readily agreed. In 1973, a prototype of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class was already manufactured, and then went to areas with extreme environmental conditions such as coal fields, deserts, and polar regions.
Testing was carried out. In 1979, the first mass-produced Mercedes-Benz G-Class officially rolled off the assembly line.
This first-generation Mercedes-Benz G-Class has this square shape and has been used for decades. As for its performance, it is still good.
It's a pity that after the oil country came out, there was a coup in this oil country and the original government was overthrown. Therefore, the car could not enter the country's market. However, after all, Mercedes-Benz has a strong brand. After being introduced to the world, it quickly gained a lot of popularity.
Few customers.
In 1991, the Big G was upgraded, and the main product was the long-wheelbase four-door hardtop version. This version is now delivered to Qin Tao.
Wu Shengli looked at the car with envy, looking at the hard-edged appearance, and then at the interior, and couldn't help but said: "Do you use this kind of car for yourself?"
"Dad, do you like it?"
At this time, Wu Shengli felt like Qin Baoshan deep in his heart. Little bastard, do I need to say this? Can't you see it?
"That is to say, the Air Force will also like it." Qin Tao said: "If we want to ask the Air Force for the S-300 system, we only need to get a few of these vehicles over and we can make them happy.
Shaken."
Only then did Wu Shengli react.
This kind of car is too luxurious to use by yourself, so you have to give it as a gift!
The Navy has already started building 051C, and it will inevitably need two sets of S-300 systems. Qin Tao thought of many ways, such as taking advantage of the chaos to get them from Lao Maozi, or getting them from the equipment purchased by the Air Force.
The latter is difficult. After all, the Air Force also regards this kind of anti-aircraft missile as a treasure. The quantity is too small and everyone wants it. What should I do? I can only give some gifts, or gifts that those people can't refuse.
A smile appeared on Wu Shengli's face: "Taozi, your plan is very good."
Qin Tao is a very smart person and will prepare the groundwork for everything in advance. Just now, he was testing Wu Shengli.
As a senior military leader, it is absolutely impossible to refuse such an off-road vehicle specially developed for the army. Of course, ordinary men cannot refuse it either. (The Hero of East China wants it too! Which rich book lover would give it to me
A Hero of East China. Wake up, stop dreaming, it’s time to get up and code.)
Qin Tao only needs one for himself, and the rest is, of course, for giving as gifts at critical moments.
After receiving these vehicles, Qin Tao returned to the office and made an international long-distance call.
"Boris, my friend, I have received the car. Thank you so much." Qin Tao mumbled in Russian.
"You saved my daughter's life twice, and I'm very happy to be able to help you now. The suggestions you gave are so useful. Moscow is very happy. I have already contacted the Northern Fleet, and they have some scrap metal there.
I want to sell it, especially the scrap metal in Kola Port."
Port Cora?
Qin Tao's eyes lit up: "It seems that I need to go there. The big guys there need my floating dock to transport them."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you."
Putting down the phone, Qin Tao's eyes flashed.
"Kola Port?" Wu Shengli muttered the name: "There seems to be a graveyard of Lao Maozi's naval nuclear submarines there, right?"
If you remove the appearance, it's clearly true. Qin Tao didn't dare to correct his father-in-law's little doubt, lest his father-in-law lose face.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! During the Cold War, both the United States and the Soviet Union built a large number of nuclear submarines. They had powerful underwater nuclear submarine forces. The other three rogues were almost negligible.
After all, they don’t even have a fraction of it.
The important significance of nuclear submarines is a second nuclear counterattack to ensure nuclear deterrence. After all, even if there is only one strategic nuclear submarine hidden underwater, it can use the mushroom bombs it carries to make the enemy pay an unacceptable price. In this
Under such circumstances, the enemy must consider whether to launch a nuclear strike against the enemy at the risk of both death.
Therefore, although both sides have the power to destroy the other many times, they must not take risks without ensuring their own safety. It is precisely because of this nuclear deterrence that the Cold War did not turn into a hot war.
What is the specific number? You can cite some data. For example, from 1956 to 1968, the Soviet Navy received a total of 188 submarines, 56 of which were nuclear-powered submarines. These nuclear submarines formed the first-generation underwater nuclear fleet, and then
, that is, the second and third generations. The models are complex and the total number is large, including 91 ballistic missile nuclear submarines, 65 cruise missile nuclear submarines, and 89 attack nuclear submarines.
However, when the Red Empire disintegrated, the newly formed Mao Navy took over most of the assets of the former Soviet Navy. The number of submarines was no longer very large. Many of these nuclear submarines built during the Cold War were retired and were in the hands of the Mao Navy.
, the number of nuclear submarines was further reduced, and finally only thirty or forty were left.
Where did the nuclear submarines go after they were decommissioned?
Lao Maozi only built them and did not dismantle them. These decommissioned nuclear submarines were pulled to the Kola Peninsula and then hung on the dock to bask in the sun and wind.
As for why it is the Kola Port, the reason is very simple. Just look at the map and you will know that the entire Kola Peninsula is the base camp of Lao Maozi's Northern Fleet!
There are many naval bases and ports on the Kola Peninsula. In the Nerpichia Bay of the Kola Peninsula, there is the Gagievo base where Lao Maozi’s Northern Fleet submarine is located. In front of this base are Prosky and Yagir.
The small island serves as a barrier and is very safe. As for Kola Port, where the submarine cemetery is located, it is not very far from here.
Therefore, you can just drag the decommissioned submarine over, which is quite convenient. Of course, even this kind of thing sometimes cannot be done well. For example, when dragging the submarine to the cemetery, the submarine actually sank.
!After the investigation into the accident, senior officials of the Northern Fleet had to take the blame and resign.
Of course, it's not that Lao Maozi doesn't dismantle nuclear submarines. There are still workers there, and the dismantling work is still going on. The problem is that just after the reactor of one submarine was dismantled, five decommissioned submarines were sent over, so
, it was simply not dismantled in time.
Under this circumstance, the number of decommissioned nuclear submarines in the Port of Kola is increasing.
Therefore, when Boris went to the Northern Fleet to arrange for the collection of rags, the Northern Fleet was very happy. It was definitely a good thing for someone to buy their rags.
It costs money to dismantle a nuclear submarine. If you sell it directly, you can still make money, so why not?
However, for Qin Tao, a second-rate dealer, he has to think about it.
"Almost all of the first-generation nuclear submarines built by Lao Maozi have been decommissioned and are tied up on the Kola Peninsula." Qin Tao said: "The technology of these nuclear submarines is outdated and of no value to us. After they are brought back, they may not be returned to us.
There will be a nuclear leak or something, and we don't have to deal with the garbage for the old man."
This is really garbage. Whether it is the Soviet Union or the United States, it costs a lot of money to dismantle a nuclear submarine, especially the dismantled nuclear materials, which is even more troublesome and costs a lot of money to dispose of.
"Yes, if an advanced submarine can be towed back, our navy can provide funds for dismantling it. After all, it is useful to our navy, but there is no need for those backward models."
"Advanced submarine, I haven't retired it yet."
Speaking of advanced ones, Qin Tao can certainly name a lot. Ballistic missile nuclear submarines, such as the Typhoon class, are codenamed 941-class nuclear submarines. They are the largest underwater monsters. Six of them are currently in service.
There is another ship under construction. Of course, given Lao Maozi's situation, this ship will definitely be dismantled and cannot be built at all.
The cruise missile nuclear submarine is undoubtedly the Oscar class, also known as the 949 class. The sinking of the Kursk made this type of submarine famous around the world. Of course, it is not a good reputation.
This kind of nuclear submarine is also Lao Maozi's unique equipment. It exists specifically for anti-aircraft carriers. It uses its own anti-ship missiles with a range of more than 500 kilometers to launch fatal strikes against U.S. aircraft carrier formations.
As for attack nuclear submarines, the most advanced one is of course the Type 971 Akula-class nuclear submarine. This submarine has a smooth shape and looks like a shark in the sea. In later generations, it will still be the main force of the Korean Navy.
When talking about the classification of these submarines, some people will always say that attack nuclear submarines escort ballistic missile nuclear submarines, and that two submarines form an underwater formation together. This statement is definitely amateurish.
Submarine communication is quite complicated underwater. Radio cannot be used, and sonar will reveal its position. Therefore, if two submarines act together, they are definitely looking for death.
Ballistic missile nuclear submarines and cruise missile nuclear submarines all carry torpedoes. When they need to fight, they have to rely on themselves. They are lonely ghosts underwater, and they live alone.
At this time, Qin Tao went through Lao Maozi's advanced submarine in his mind, and finally shook his head helplessly, forget it!
"I heard that a few months ago, when a Type 941 nuclear submarine was conducting a firing exercise in the Bering Sea, the missile did not launch from the launch tube, resulting in a serious accident and the launch tube cover was damaged. Will this submarine be decommissioned?
"At this moment, a naval officer said.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "A small accident like that can be repaired. How can I be willing to decommission a submarine of this level?" Qin Tao shook his head.
After all, he knew that the six Typhoon-class ships were all Lao Maozi's treasures. It was not until 2013 that Lao Maozi had to gradually phase out the Typhoon class due to various reasons.
"It's impossible for others, but if Mr. Qin takes action, there will definitely be a chance."
Hearing that this person continued to lie, Qin Tao became a little curious: "What is your name?"
"My surname is Yang, and my last name also contains the character "xi"."
Yang Xi and Qin Tao looked at the person in front of him in surprise: "Are you the captain of our first nuclear submarine? A captain who has participated in nuclear submarine durability experiments, extreme depth experiments, and underwater ballistic missile launch experiments?"
"Mr. Qin, how did you know?"
This is a mistake. These things are all confidential! How did Qin Tao know?
In the past, I could push it to Wu Shengli, but now, Wu Shengli is right in front of me!
Qin Tao swallowed and decided to change the topic directly: "Old Yang, since you have made a request, I will take you with me when I go out this time. Even if I can't get it back, I will let you see it."
"That's great." Yang Xi said: "Since I left the submarine and returned to the shore, I felt like I had lost my soul all day long. This time I followed Leader Wu to join in the fun and wander around here. I didn't expect that I could still fish.
What an opportunity!"
Yang Xi was really depressed. A person who has been wandering on the sea all his life, once he returns to land, is like a bird locked in a cage, longing for the outside world.
Unexpectedly, I actually got this opportunity.
As a submariner, Yang Xi is full of expectations for Lao Maozi's submarine. Although Qin Tao got one back in the past, it was dismantled when he got it back. He was still at sea at that time, so he had no chance, and it was an ordinary one.
Diesel electric submarine.
This time it’s different, I went specifically to Lao Maozi’s nuclear submarine base to see it!
In the past, when Qin Tao went out, he always brought girls with him, whether it was Nie Shiyu or Zhao Ling. This time, he was going out with a grown man, which felt a little unique.
