The third point is actually not difficult to solve. The simplest way is to use a less sensitive fuse. Of course, this degree is not easy to control. During World War II, only Japan had a situation where torpedo fuses were so sensitive that they could be detonated by waves.
It is more common, but the torpedoes produced by other great powers have another serious problem, that is, after the torpedo hits an enemy ship, it often fails to detonate for some reasons. The triggering type is limited by the angle when it hits the enemy ship, and the magnetic induction fuze because
During World War II, the technology was not yet mature, and its reliability was even worse...
In this regard, Hu Weidong decided to adopt a two-pronged approach. While developing low-sensitivity trigger torpedo fuze emergency response, he also asked Tesla, the "King of Electromagnetics", to allocate some energy to lead a team to trial-produce a magnetic induction torpedo fuze, so that he could succeed before victory.
Well, even if it is not used in the war, it still
It can be regarded as a technical reserve. After all, the magnetic induction torpedo fuze has greater potential. Besides, Hu Weidong himself can provide some ideas and even technical help. Although opening two research groups at the same time will distract manpower, the design and construction of torpedo boats cannot be completed overnight anyway.
, so don’t worry...
The performance of hydrofoil boats is excellent, but the construction cost is much higher than that of conventional small boats. Therefore, Hu Weidong decided that this solution would only be used for the time being in powerful and relatively high seaworthiness requirements. Before the invention of guided torpedoes, torpedo boats
stability
g directly affects the precision of the torpedo. On the torpedo boats, patrol gunboats, submarine hunters, minesweepers, minelayers and most landing craft all adopt traditional designs, because the name of Qingdao Shipyard "Repair Shipyard" does not conform to the habits of later generations, Hu Weidong
change it to
"Shipyard", besides, this place should not exist only as a ship repair base. It can produce small ships under 500 tons, so it can be put into production immediately after the design is completed. I have to thank Shen Honglie for serving as the mayor of Qingdao
During this period of hard work, without him
Qingdao can't even build a small gunboat now. Before, whether it was the Germans or the Japanese, they would completely destroy the naval base they established every time they evacuated. Not even a shipbuilding yard would be left in Qingdao.
The next owner of...
It is worth mentioning that due to the needs of anti-submarine, the Sonar Research Institute has been established not long ago, and the Guidance Research Institute, which has been classified as "top secret", has added the new project of acoustic homing and wired guidance to its projects.
Research has already begun before. As for mine clearing and mine laying, it is not possible to talk about it now, because the Central Plains border area currently does not have the production capacity of mines. It is said that the manufacture of mines is much easier than torpedoes. But trigger mine sweeping
It was too simple to remove and basically of no use, so Hu Weidong assigned the scientific and technical personnel of the Fuze Research Institute the task of developing hydraulic, acoustic and magnetic fuzes. As an ammunition expert, Hu Weidong knew a lot about this.
This highly technical scientific research project went smoothly. Of course, this is because even for the same type of fuze, the design and manufacture of mines is much simpler than that of torpedoes...
By the way, Hu Weidong is now gradually realizing that as long as world-class cutting-edge talents take the lead, as well as the necessary equipment and a small number of experimental personnel, it will not be difficult to achieve breakthroughs in those seemingly high-tech gadgets. Although these conditions are not
It is easy to satisfy, but at least there is the possibility of quick success. On the contrary, those seemingly ordinary basic industries are
It requires several generations of steady accumulation, especially for a backward country like China with a weak foundation. This is why New China was able to develop "two bombs and one satellite" as early as the 1960s and 1970s, and civilian products
However, it has long lacked international competitiveness and can only rely on the so-called "price-performance ratio" to make some hard-earned money... One of the important reasons...
If you want to land on the Japanese island in the future, landing ships are essential. Considering that small boats can be built faster. In addition, the distance across the sea is not far, Hu Weidong plans to use landing crafts as the mainstay, and will not consider landing ships with larger tonnage for the time being.
Even if there are conditions for development, it will only be used as a technical reserve for the time being. For this reason, Hu Weidong
People have also carried out research on air-cushion landing craft so that they can quickly form a force advantage at the beginning of the landing operation. After all, China’s landing is already not easy when the navy cannot do it quickly. If it delays it any longer, it will not be easy.
Be careful and you'll be driven into the sea...
The technical difficulty of research and development of hovercraft is actually not as great as many people think. Historically, New China, which was less than ten years old after the founding of the People's Republic of China, took the lead in inventing it, but it was regarded as a military secret at the time and was not announced to the world. The result was
The British stole this first place. But to be honest, the hovercraft is an epoch-making invention, but although it has many military uses, it has
It was not enough to bring about a qualitative change in China at that time, so there was no need to keep it secret. But it is no wonder that China has lagged behind for so many years. It is rare to have a world number one. It is understandable to be excited. But Hu Weidong, who knows this period of history, will naturally not
The excessive secrecy about this is evident from the fact that he even allowed Tupolev, a foreigner, to participate in the development...
The arrival of Tupolev and Sukhoi, in addition to their own value, also convinced Hu Weidong that his idea of China's industrial development is completely feasible. In the past two years, Hu Weidong has been considering an issue, the introduction of the most advanced foreign equipment
It is extremely difficult to deal with technology. It would be good to be able to introduce equipment and technology that are currently widely used. However, if only existing foreign products are copied,
The number of mature products is only ten years lower than that of foreign countries. In addition, China's industrial and technological foundation is too weak, and the digestion and absorption time is relatively long. The gap of 30 to 50 years has suddenly widened.
Those developed countries will not stop and wait for you, so it will be very difficult to catch up, and it is easy to fall into an endless cycle of constant imitation, which in turn affects the ability of independent innovation.
Therefore, Hu Weidong has always tried his best to directly invite foreign experts to China. After inviting them, he then asked them to study the most advanced scientific and technological topics in the correct direction pointed by him, while Chinese students whose number was at least dozens of times followed.
Learning while learning, what you learn directly in this way is the most cutting-edge technology, and you won’t find out after learning it with great difficulty.
Now that what I have learned has lagged behind the times, the efficiency is much higher than simply imitating current foreign equipment and products. In addition, there are currently three major engineering systems in the world that are unique to China.
With the help of concurrent engineering and reverse engineering, China's industrialization will definitely be much faster than in history...
