Chapter 248 Daxia was invited to participate! Military fans were dumbfounded. What are we doing?

Xiake Institute, inside the dean’s office.

"This is really too much. Do you really take us seriously?"

Fu Hai kept pacing in the room, repeating this word over and over again.

Apart from "arrogant", he couldn't think of any other words to describe the "shamelessness" of the Eagle Sauce!
It would be fine if they just invited Daxia to participate in the so-called "Joint Maritime Security Exercise in the Asia-Pacific Region", but they chose the date of December 12.30th.

What does this mean? Everyone knows that this period is two days before the New Year of the Eagle Sauce and the day after Christmas.

Aren’t you just trying to use Daxia’s bullying to give you Eagle Sauce a New Year gift?
"Old Zhang, we are not prepared now?" Fu Hai looked anxious: "How can we fight back in such a short time?"

If they do not participate, given the influence of the United States in dominating the media discourse around the world, Daxia will still suffer the same loss of face.

But if I participate, how should I prepare in more than a month? ?
Hearing this, Zhang Yuli, who was sitting in his office chair, frowned and thought: "Let me think about it."

Ideas kept swirling in my mind, but I couldn't make up my mind.

"How about we use the 'hypersonic missile' that is currently under development?" Zheng Lixing proposed a seemingly crazy idea.

"No!" Zhang Yuli refused decisively!

It’s not that hypersonic missiles cannot be unveiled, but this is just a drill. Do you really intend to use them as targets for the Americans?

Although Daxia intends to fight back, it does not plan to engage in a real intense conflict, as that would simply fall into the Eagle Sauce's trap.

"Then, how about sending out the amphibious assault ship in coordination with the aircraft carrier No. 002?" Zheng Lixing said immediately.

"Fu Hai, what do you think?" Zhang Yuli glanced at Fu Hai who was still standing there in a daze.

At present, the strongest combat power of the entire Daxia Navy is undoubtedly the "Kitty Hawk" and "Wasp" amphibious assault ships.

But can the modification be completed in just over a month?
"No problem. If you want to form combat effectiveness." Fu Hai hesitated: "I think it will be difficult. There is not enough time."

Not to mention exerting any combat effectiveness, the entire aircraft carrier battle group formation framework has not even been formed.

The steam catapult team's training is probably just the beginning. If the '002' aircraft carrier is used as the main force, it will be a real embarrassment in front of the whole world.

This is also the point he has not mentioned just now, that is, it is impossible to form effective combat power.

"It's not necessary. These two ships are just for cheering." Zhang Yuli was already prepared for this.

It's not a real fight, it's just a way of showing off muscles in front of the whole world.

However, this alone is not enough.

We also need to prepare other new weapons to shock the whole world.

Just as his brain was frantically thinking about what preparations and trump cards he should make.

Suddenly.

"It's a pity that our ship-borne hypersonic missiles have not yet been successfully developed." Zheng Lixing blinked.

If it is possible to launch ship-based hypersonic missiles, why would this American hawk dare to mention "safety drills"?
If your aircraft carrier dares to approach, I will drive a missile destroyer to lock you from more than a thousand kilometers away, and scare you to death.

However, Fu Hai said with some embarrassment: "Even if we develop our current ships now, it seems difficult to carry such a big thing?"

Hypersonic missiles are much larger in range and explosive charge than conventional anti-ship missiles, which also means that they will be larger in size.

How much tonnage would a destroyer have to have in order to carry such a big thing?
Destroyers equipped with large-caliber universal vertical launch systems are extremely rare in the world. Even if one wants to carry a sufficient number of "hypersonic anti-ship missiles", it will be a big problem for the size and vertical launch layout of the destroyer.

"As for the 052D," Zheng Lixing pondered, "it should be possible if the launch conditions are met."

The 052D should be able to carry this large-caliber missile, but the launch pit needs to be modified, which is not too difficult during the construction phase.

After obtaining the technology of "hypersonic missile", the first 052D destroyer has become very urgent to quickly advance the construction plan, which will be much faster than originally expected.

It will even be launched two years ahead of schedule, which is next year!

Zheng Lixing smiled: "When our Type 055 destroyer is completed, it will be the best carrier for this kind of hypersonic weapon!"

The 055 destroyer, which has undergone decades of research and development, entered the final project review stage last month.

As for the construction time, with Daxia putting all its efforts into it and already having 052C, 052D and other destroyers, it will be developed at an unprecedented speed.

This 10,000-ton destroyer will be the ultimate nightmare for any object above the water, and the super daddy of any aircraft carrier!
After the preliminary discussion of the entire plan was completed.

Fu Hai glanced at the time and saw that it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon. He quickly said goodbye: "In this case, I will go back to Beihai to prepare."

The time left for the 'drill' to start is very tight, so he has to make all the preparations in advance.

He didn't want to "lose face" in front of the whole world. After all, the North Sea Fleet owned Daxia's first aircraft carrier, and it would be a disaster if it failed to complete the mission.

By then, those two guys, Wang Guanghai and Chu Zhentao, would probably make fun of him severely.

"Oh, there's one more thing." Zhang Yuli quickly stopped him, "Regarding the naming of the 002 aircraft carrier, please ask the Northern Fleet to submit a draft for comments!"

Aircraft carrier No. 002 is just a number and code name, but each aircraft carrier has an official name.

What the aircraft carrier should be called will be decided by the higher-ups and their "Supreme Special Secret Group" and will be left to the more than one billion Daxia people to decide.

at the same time.

A residential building in Jincheng, Sichuan region.

Zhang Wei, who had already arrived home, was holding a few pieces of bacon and handed them directly to his wife Weiwei: "My mother asked me to bring them back. These are bacon smoked at home."

Although he didn't take the money, the bacon in his hand was full of his mother's love, so he had to accept it.

Hear the words.

"I don't want to eat it. I'll fry some bacon and garlic sprouts for you to go with the rice later." Weiwei took it with a smile. She had just finished her confinement period, and she needed to eat less high-salt foods like bacon. She had already checked this common sense on the Internet.

Then she weighed it and frowned.

The bacon in his hands weighed about 20 to 30 kilograms in total. It was estimated that all the bacon in the family was given to Zhang Wei.

You know, my parents-in-law would fry bacon with rice almost every now and then, how could they take it away? They were reluctant to buy meat to eat, and without bacon, they would probably just eat vegetables with white rice every day.

I couldn't help but blame him: "Why did you bring so much back? What are mom and dad going to eat?"

"Send some money back to mom later. You are such a fool. Why did you take it all back?" Weiwei scolded as she packed up the bacon on hand: "At least don't skimp on food. At their age, they will get sick easily if they don't get enough nutrition."

As a daughter-in-law, Weiwei understands the thoughts of the elderly very well.

Both my parents and my parents-in-law have always been frugal. If there is no bacon to eat, they will not buy other delicious food, but will choose to save money and eat less.

Hear this.

"Don't worry." Zhang Wei waved his hand. "We opened a factory near my hometown. Dad can earn more than 3,000 yuan a month working there, and Mom also earns more than 1,000 yuan a month. We don't have to worry about food and drink." "Don't ask me to give them money. Mom even gave me money before."

Although he expressed helplessness, the corners of his mouth were filled with joy.

Ever since Zhang Wei started working hard, what worried him most was his two elder parents at home. Now he can finally put his mind at ease.

Looking at Weiwei who was still busy in the kitchen, Zhang Wei shouted, "Don't do too much. I ate a bucket of instant noodles on the way."

"I understand." A voice in Sichuan dialect came from inside.

After teasing his confused son while lying on the sofa, Zhang Wei took out his Xiaomi OS phone from his trouser pocket and planned to see what people in the group and forum were discussing.

A happy family with a wife and children, and healthy and happy parents, this is the biggest wish of Zhang Wei, who is nearly 30 years old, and now it has been half realized.

now.

Daxia Military Fans Forum, a gathering place for military fans.

It has been more than a week since the announcement of the "Aircraft Carrier No. 002", but the entire forum is still full of discussions about the aircraft carrier battle group.

There are conventional topics such as "How should our aircraft carrier fleet be reorganized?"

Of course, there is more discussion about the measurement of the combat effectiveness of "aircraft carriers".

Although the information released now is very scarce, but from the various clues revealed, resourceful military fans can already guess a thing or two.

Under a post titled [What is the aircraft carrier capacity of the '002' aircraft carrier? ]

The author began to express his opinion: "If the proportions of the CG image are not distorted, this Type 002 aircraft carrier, which is comparable to the Kitty Hawk-class aircraft carrier, should be able to carry at least 60-70 carrier-based aircraft."

"Can't the Kitty Hawk class accommodate more than 80 aircraft? 60 is conservative, right?" someone wondered.

Compared with the eighty or even ninety carrier-based aircraft on the Eagle Sauce aircraft carrier, this number is almost far less.

You know, the full load displacement of this aircraft carrier No. 002 is predicted to be more than tons on the forum. Why is the data so different? ?

"It's different. You can only have a capacity of 6 aircraft if you carry A-80 carrier-based attack aircraft, which have been retired for many years." A poster below explained.

This is equivalent to comparing the aircraft carriers of the World War II, which were equipped with light propeller carrier-based aircraft weighing only a few tons, with modern carrier-based aircraft whose take-off weights can easily reach 20 to 30 tons. They are completely not in the same level system.

At the time when the Kitty Hawk class was in service, carrier-based aircraft were generally smaller in size, so with the addition of helicopters, anti-submarine aircraft, etc., more than 80 aircraft could be crammed in.

But nowadays, the performance of carrier-based aircraft is becoming more and more powerful, and their size is naturally getting bigger and bigger. In addition, the size of various helicopters, anti-submarine aircraft and early warning aircraft is also gradually expanding.

Even the world's top Nimitz-class aircraft carrier can barely fit ninety aircraft of various types at most. This is a behemoth with a full load displacement of more than 100,000 tons.

He continued in his reply: "Moreover, the F/A-18 is in folding wing mode, with a length of only 17 meters and a wingspan of just over 11 meters, so it is easier to store on the deck and in the hangar."

"But our latest J-15 is different. It is a heavy carrier-based aircraft. Its empty weight alone is much heavier than the F/A-18. It is 22 meters long and has a wingspan of 15 meters. It also has a large folding wing configuration. During takeoff, the deck simply cannot accommodate so many ships."

"Forty main carrier-based aircraft, and twenty other anti-submarine and early warning aircraft. The total number of carrier-based aircraft is over sixty, which is very reasonable."

As for the number of carrier-based aircraft that the "Varyag" aircraft carrier can carry, military fans inside and outside the forum have already discussed it clearly.

Judging from Russia's "Kuznetsov aircraft carrier", it can carry a total of more than 40 carrier-based aircraft.

That is to say, by dispatching two aircraft carrier formations, Daxia can deploy more than one hundred carrier-based aircraft of various types at one time, including more than sixty J-15 main carrier-based aircraft.

You should know that according to the configuration of the Daxia Air Force, a squadron is fully equipped with 10 aircraft, a flying regiment has only to aircraft, and an air force flying division has only to aircraft.

Two aircraft carriers can be equivalent to the collective deployment of two air force flight divisions, and can be deployed to any corner of the world.

Let alone the five permanent members, except for the United States, even Russia needs to be cautious when facing this kind of long-range delivery capability. As for those below the five permanent members, it is like a landslide.

At this moment, a certain military fan group chat was also discussing this topic enthusiastically.

"And you guys haven't even counted the 'new 075' amphibious assault ship!"

"That thing can also carry a lot of helicopters and attack aircraft." Someone reminded quietly.

The Type 075 amphibious assault ship, with a displacement of more than tons, can carry at least to carrier-based aircraft.

Although they are all helicopters and light attack aircraft, why can't they be considered carrier-based aircraft?

Don’t treat bean buns as dry food, as long as it is a carrier-based aircraft, it counts!

Looking at the information in the group chat.

Zhang Wei was chewing his rice while thinking secretly on his cell phone.

"So, our naval strength is indeed going to surpass Russia and Great Britain, and move straight to the second place?"

"Isn't the development of our navy too fast?"

Zhang Wei did not expect that in just one or two years, even the navy had undergone such earth-shaking changes, which even exceeded the imagination of all military fans and developed at an unprecedented terrifying speed.

Like more than ten years ago, what kind of 'junk metal' did the Daxia Navy have in their hands?
The main battleship is the Type 07 destroyer purchased from the Russians. When it was launched, Daxia's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression was not yet over.

They were in service for 40 to 50 years until they were phased out in the late 1990s. They were affectionately called the "Four Great King Kongs" by the Navy, symbolizing the unshakable status of these four ships. (Mainly because there was nothing else to use)
Even a few years ago, this scale would have been unimaginable.

The 051 destroyer, which has been in service for decades without being retired, could say in 05/06, "I am old, but can I still make a living?" Its thirties are a good age for it to work hard.

The navy's three major fleets have a large number of ships that have been in service for more than several decades, and some have not even been replaced.

And now.

In just a few years, not only did new destroyers emerge one after another, but there were also three "amphibious assault ships" and "aircraft carriers".

If this dreamy scene had been told ten years ago, people would probably have laughed their heads off.

Just as Zhang Wei was lamenting the ever-changing world.

The announcement of the news seemed to have caused a huge storm in the already uneasy military fan circle.

[The Daxia Navy was invited by the Eagle Sauce to participate in the 'Asia-Pacific Maritime Security Joint Exercise' and will conduct friendly actions with various countries on December 12.30! ]

Like a bolt from the blue, everyone was stunned by the news.

Especially Zhang Wei, who was eating at the time, was so scared that he almost choked to death on the rice in his mouth!

After taking a sip of water, his eyes revealed a strong sense of horror, and he murmured: "What the hell is going on?"

What incredible things did he see? Did Daxia accept the invitation of Eagle Sauce to participate in the maritime safety drill?
What the hell is wrong with the Eagle Sauce that it would invite the Great Xia Navy to participate in the exercise?
What's even more outrageous is that our own navy actually agreed?

"Is this world going crazy or are aliens about to invade the earth?" Zhang Wei muttered to himself.

Why does this seem more and more wrong the more I look at it?
