The degree of reaction of a nuclear reactor can be controlled, and the amount of energy it releases can be controlled through adjustment, so that energy will not be wasted. This system is a very advanced technology that can only let its energy release rate reach 2%. Let the whole ship have electricity available, and can also completely shut down the reactor when necessary, and in combat conditions, it can even make its energy release rate reach more than 90%, fully supply all equipment and power.

"Go to sea!"

Following Cui Yuzhou’s order, the helmsman pushed up the propeller lever, the two propellers under the water began to rotate, the mothership began to move forward slowly, and then the opponent held the throttle lever and slowly pushed upwards, the mothership’s The speed of one building increased slightly. Under the cheers of people on both sides of the strait, the mothership gradually left the dock and entered the waters of the pier.

In the command cabin, all electronic equipment is turned on, and a series of equipment such as air-to-air, sea-to-sea radar, underwater sonar system, satellite navigation, navigator, etc. can work normally, and the equipment of the weapon system can also be used normally. The engineers are right. These devices are tested one by one.

After leaving the shipyard wharf, the chief engineer took the intercom and ordered: "The energy release rate of the core power system is increased to 40%!"

"Received... the core power system energy release rate has been increased to 40%!"

Cui Yuzhou ordered the helmsman: "Gradually sailing speed, report every 10 knots increase in sailing speed!"

"Yes!"

The helmsman was in the first gear, holding the throttle stick in his hand and slowly pushing upwards, gradually increasing the power, so that the speed of the mothership on the sea increased. When the speed increased to 10 knots, he reported: "The sailing speed reached 10 knots" at the same time Change to second gear and start slowly pushing the throttle lever.

"Sailing speed reached 20 knots!"

Change the third gear again, refuel steadily, and continue to increase power.

In fact, it can be directly connected to the highest-grade sixth gear, so that the mothership can reach the highest speed in the shortest time on the sea, but this is after all to test the power system, and every gear must be tested. After all, the mothership is mostly on the sea. It is not sailing at the highest speed, but at the normal cruising speed, and sometimes it is necessary to adjust the sailing posture, parking, etc. at a very busy speed. Set the gears to six gears. For the operator It has strong maneuverability, and can precisely let the mothership sail at what speed, which is very helpful for U-turns and turns, and this is not comparable to automatic transmission.

Each gear corresponds to an increase in speed of 10 knots, but in fact it is not very accurate. For example, the third and fourth gears both increase the speed by 12 knots, and the fifth gear increases the speed even more. At 15 knots, the sixth gear has increased by 13 knots, so when it is sailing in the sixth gear, the top speed under no-load conditions has reached a terrifying 82 knots. As far as the stern of the ship is concerned, it can be seen as long as possible. Miles of white splashes rolled.

This kind of sailing speed can simply be described as riding the wind and breaking the waves. It is too fast. This kind of sailing speed shouldn't appear on such a heavy and large ship, but its no-load speed did indeed reach 82 knots.

Seeing this unloaded maximum speed, Tang Xiaochuan took a sigh of relief. According to the estimates and reports submitted by the designers during the design, the maximum speed of this amphibious carrier when unloaded would not exceed 65 knots. In the case of displacement, the maximum speed is about 58 knots, and the full-load displacement is about 50 knots. I did not expect that the maximum speed under no-load conditions reached the horrible 82 knots in this test. If this data is known to the outside world, Isn't that shocking many people's jaws?

In fact, Tang Xiaochuan thinks that the amphibious mothership has such a high speed on the sea is a tasteless one, because the amphibious mothership itself has the ability to fly into the air, and the flying speed can be much faster than sailing on the sea, even if it can’t reach the speed of the carrier-based aircraft. The speed can also reach the speed of a general passenger aircraft. At this speed, the world can go to. If you want to conduct fast-reaction operations, immediately turn on eight super turbo engines to take off. With its performance, it can fly at ultra-low altitude and high speed. Ascend to a high altitude and fly.

But one thing is certain. Lift-off flight definitely consumes much more energy than sailing on the sea. Therefore, if it is not for a tens of thousands of urgent combat missions, it is not necessary to take off-air flight to quickly reach the combat airspace. Generally speaking, it can be taken in The sea sailed at high speed to reach the combat area.

However, training cannot be saved. The training for lift-offs still requires lift-off training, and the intensity of this training cannot be castrated, otherwise the training effect will not be achieved and the combat quality of the troops will not be improved.

At the speed of 82 knots, everyone in the command cabin selectively did not raise it.

Cui Yuzhou raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already 7:53 in the evening. He raised his head and said to Tang Xiaochuan, "Boss, do you want to perform a take-off test?"

Tang Xiaochuan asked: "Has the air traffic control coordinated?"

Cui Yuzhou shook his head: "No, this thing is a highly confidential piece of equipment. It can't easily be leaked to outsiders. After it is delivered, we will leave it alone!"

Tang Xiaochuan thought about it and said, "How is the weather now?"

The weather tester replied: "The southeast wind is 2-3, the wind speed is 3.3 meters per second, the starry sky is clear within 100 kilometers, the waves are 0.5-1 meters high, and there are a few clouds from 130 kilometers to 180 kilometers southwest!"

Tang Xiaochuan said: "Let's take a look at it, take a super-ground flight close to sea level, and the ceiling height does not exceed ten meters!"

"Okay!" Cui Yuzhou agreed, picked up the intercom and ordered: "Turn off the mechanical thruster system, and the core power system's energy release rate will increase to 70%."

"Received...The order has been executed!"

"Clear the field on the deck, clear the field at a high speed, there can be no one on the deck, all personnel return to the cabin!"

Five minutes later, Cui Yuzhou immediately issued an order to the cockpit: "Turn on the lift-off power electric drive system, and the air horizontal thruster will warm up!"

"Received, it's turned on!"

"Launch! Ten meters ceiling"

The operating lever was violently pushed up while holding the starter lever, and the eight super-large turbofan engines on the outer deck below began to rotate. Another operator held the lever and pushed it up slowly, gradually increasing the power.

The eight super-large turbofan engines turned faster and faster, the huge wind blowing downwards, huge vortices were blown out on the sea, the mothership began to rise little by little, and Tang Xiaochuan and others standing in the command cabin clearly felt There was a thrust at the foot, like the feeling of taking an elevator upstairs.

"The ten-meter ceiling has arrived, and the mothership is in a hovering state!"

Tang Xiaochuan walked to the window and looked down. He saw that the mothership was hanging in the air, the sea was still blowing out a huge whirlpool, and a large amount of water vapor flew and rolled outwards.

"Start the air horizontal thruster!"

"receive!"

There was a shock, and the two huge turbofan engines at the tail of the amphibious mothership began to rotate. The mothership slowly flew forward and flew close to the sea. This kind of super large creature can burst into the enemy's territory at night. Will not be discovered, it is too late to wait for the enemy to discover.

With its flying speed, it was too late to react when discovered by shore-based radars and ship-based radars.
