Warship of Great Power

Chapter 222: Nuclear Submarine Graveyard

  Chapter 222 Nuclear Submarine Cemetery

   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 manager of this warship, with Qin Tao's style, he often runs outside. Therefore, this warship must appoint several deputies to take charge.

  Yang Dawei and Zhou Yongfei were appointed to be in charge of this warship.

  Yang Dawei did not say that after all, he came from the Ship Design Institute, and he is still the person in charge of the R&D department. It is no problem for him to be in charge, but Zhou Yongfei is different, he 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 a good job! Anyway, Cong Ju is not busy now, he can take care of his family, and he will devote himself to the construction of this warship!

  The eastern sun shines on the shipyard and on the empty berth. In a short time, a brand new warship will appear here!

At the end of the ceremony, everyone returned to the meeting room and sat on chairs. Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao in front of him and said, "Taozi, the construction of this warship has already started, but the S-300 system on it has not yet been settled. .”

   It was the first time for the navy to do such a thing. After all, the air defense pressure was too great, and Wu Shengli was already urging Qin Tao.

  Qin Tao nodded: "Well, there is always a way, we have to wait."

"Wait? How long do we have to wait?" Wu Shengli picked up the teacup, blowing the tea, and looked at Qin Tao with urging eyes: "I remember, you said before that you wanted to buy a batch of Pajero off-road vehicles for the navy. The day lily is cold, and I haven't seen the car."

   "Wait until..." Qin Tao can't go all the way to the Prophet Emperor. In half a month, the Red Empire will completely collapse. At that time, there will be incomparable chaos there, and there will be opportunities everywhere, so he can go again.

   At this moment, the phone rang. Qin Tao picked up the phone and listened to the sound inside.

   "What? There is a cargo ship transporting cars for customs declaration, asking if it belongs to us?" Qin Tao was a little puzzled: "What is the origin of the other party?"

   "Logoise Motor Company."

  Logoise? 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."

   "That's right, we ordered it, but our company purchased it for the navy, and we will coordinate with the navy's personnel to pick up the goods." Qin Tao put down his mobile phone, feeling excited.

When Qin Tao was on his honeymoon, he met Vitalia's father and ordered a batch of Pajero and Mercedes-Benz G. However, at that time, Qin Tao asked the other party to send them to the military port and ship them together. When you come back, you don't need to go through the customs, just report to the police.

   It is estimated that these items are very popular, and Lao Maozi's territory is very chaotic, so the other party sent them to Qin Tao directly, but in the end there was an extra procedure.

"Dad, I have already said that there will be bread and everything. Just wait. Now, this is not delivered to your door? A batch of Pajero off-road vehicles, do you want the navy? Or send someone to the customs, If you don’t want it, I will declare it normally and sell it.”

   "Yes, of course!" Wu Shengli put down his teacup with excitement on his face: "I will send someone to pick it up immediately, and after customs clearance, I will send it directly to here!"

   Pajero!

  Now, there is an extreme shortage of domestic military vehicles. Most of the navy’s commuter vehicles are still 212. Although 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 Pajero was imported into the country. After entering the army, it was immediately praised. The car has a large space and is comfortable to ride. Especially the quality is mature and reliable. It is almost impossible to drive. The appearance is even more powerful and domineering. .

  Looking at Wu Shengli, Qin Tao smiled, never seen the world! What's so good about Mitsubishi Pajero? The big Mercedes-Benz G that can have fun in the Forbidden City is the sign of a mature man. In the future, I don’t need to take a Santana, and I can drive the Mercedes-Benz Big G no matter where I go.

  In the afternoon, a cargo ship docked. This is not a ro-ro ship dedicated to transporting cars, so a crane is needed to hoist the car to the shore.

  A group of navy soldiers are helping, after all, these cars belong to their navy.

   "This painting is too weird, why is it gray?" Someone asked.

   "That's a protective film on the outside to protect the car paint. It's definitely not the same color inside."

  The first car was hoisted, and someone rushed over immediately. Sure enough, the gray one was just a layer of film. After tearing it off, the inside was army green!

The bright bumper protects the headlights and the like. The army green body is covered with yellow garlands. This match is so beautiful. The reflector is also decorated with chrome, shining in the setting sun. , There is also a thick spare wheel at the rear.

It has to be said that the appearance design of Mitsubishi Pajero is still very classic. Appearance, the most suitable for military use!

   "This is still a high-end version." Looking at the V33 logo on the rear, Qin Tao said with emotion.

   These goods have already been agreed to be exchanged with light industrial products. At that time, only the quantity was mentioned, and the configuration was not mentioned at all, but this old friend is 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. It would be nice to have a car to buy, and 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 configuration, V31 is a 2.4-liter 4G64 gasoline carburetor engine, and V32 is a 2.6-liter 4G54 gasoline carburetor engine.

The V33 is the top version of the second-generation Pajero. It is equipped with a 3.0-liter V6 engine code-named 6G72. In terms of speed, you can also freely switch between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive, which is Pajero's unique weapon.

  At the same time, there is also a special hunting sunroof, the main driver is equipped with eight-way electric seats, front row heating, etc., absolutely tall.

   "Well, yes, this car will be my car from now on, Xiao Wang, you will drive this car from now on!" Wu Shengli said to his driver.

As a leader, Wu Shengli often runs outside. Even if he is equipped with an Audi, however, he often goes to the units below to inspect the dirt roads. Audis are easy to scratch the chassis. He likes cars with high chassis. Pajero, it is too suitable.

  The car behind was still being hoisted down continuously, Wu Shengli stopped looking at other cars, and just fell in love with this one.

   After finishing speaking, Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao again, and found that although Qin Tao had just circled the car, he was very satisfied and said something, but now, he went to look at other cars again.

  What car is that?

   It is also a boxy box car, but this car has more sharp edges and corners, without the slightest roundness. Hey, what is the logo on the front of the car?

  A circle with three forks inside, isn’t that a Mercedes-Benz? When did Mercedes come out with this car?

  Wu Shengli was a little curious: "Taozi, what kind of car is this?"

"Mercedes-Benz big G, the Pajero here is all bought for your navy, just get me a batch of light industrial products according to the proportion, these big Gs are all bought by myself, that is, the navy's glory It’s just saving a customs declaration.” Qin Tao has already begun to tear off the protective film on the outside of the Mercedes-Benz G. Amidst the swishing sound, the black paint is revealed, and there is still light shining through the black. Very upscale.

   When he finished watching the big G and looked back at the Pajero, he immediately felt that the Pajero was not so fragrant, and the car looked even taller!

   Gelandewagen, 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 appeared before World War II, the modern Mercedes-Benz G will 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 also readily agreed that in 1973, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class model car had already been manufactured, and then went to areas with extreme environmental conditions such as coal fields, deserts, and polar regions. carry out testing. In 1979, the first mass-produced Mercedes-Benz G-Class officially rolled off the production line.

   This first-generation Mercedes-Benz G-Class has such a square shape, and it has been used for decades. As for the performance, it is still good.

It's a pity that after it came out, the oil country had a coup and the original government was overthrown, so cars couldn't enter the country's market. However, Mercedes-Benz is a strong brand after all. fewer customers.

   In 1991, the big G was replaced, and the main push was the four-door hardtop version with a long wheelbase. Now it is this version that is delivered to Qin Tao.

  Wu Shengli looked at this car with envious eyes, looked at the tough exterior, and then looked at the interior inside, and couldn't help but said: "This kind of car is for your own use?"

   "Dad, you like it?"

  At this time, Wu Shengli felt like Qin Baoshan deep in his heart, little bastard, needless to say? Can't you see it?

"That is to say, the air force will also like it." Qin Tao said: "If we want to get the S-300 system with the air force, we only need to get a few of these cars to pass, and they will be able to satisfy their hearts. shaken."

  Wu Shengli finally realized it.

  This kind of car is too extravagant for personal use, it should be given as a gift!

  The navy has already started building 051C, and it will inevitably need two sets of S-300 systems. Qin Tao has thought of many ways, such as taking advantage of the confusion to get it from Lao Maozi, or 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 number is too small, and everyone wants it. What should I do? It can only be a gift, or a gift that those people cannot refuse.

  Wu Shengli smiled on his face: "Taozi, your plan is very good."

  Qin Tao is a very smart person, and everything will be prepared in advance. Just now, he was still testing Wu Shengli.

  As a senior military leader, it is absolutely impossible to refuse this off-road vehicle specially developed for the army. Of course, ordinary men cannot refuse it either. (The hero of East China also wants it! Which local tyrant book friend will give him a car for the hero of East China. Wake up, don’t dream, it’s time to get up and write.)

   It is enough for Qin Tao to ask for one, and the rest is of course used as gifts at critical times.

  The vehicles were all received. Qin Tao returned to the office and made an international long-distance call.

   "Boris, my friend, the car has been received, thank you very much." Qin Tao murmured in Russian.

"You saved my daughter's life twice, I'm also very happy to help you now, your suggestions are so useful, Moscow is very happy, I have already contacted the Northern Fleet, they have some scrap iron there Want to sell, especially the scrap iron in Kola Port."

   Port of Kola?

  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 sparkled.

  "Kola Port?" Wu Shengli muttered the name: "There seems to be a cemetery for Lao Maozi's naval nuclear submarine?"

  Remove the appearance, it is clearly that. Qin Tao didn't dare to correct this small question of his father-in-law, lest his father-in-law lose face.

  During the Cold War, both the United States and the Soviet Union built a large number of nuclear submarines. They have a strong underwater nuclear submarine force. The other three rogues are almost negligible, after all, they don’t even have a fraction of them.

  The significance of nuclear submarines is the second nuclear counterattack to ensure nuclear deterrence. After all, even if there is only one strategic nuclear submarine hidden underwater, they can use the mushroom bombs they carry to make the enemy pay an unacceptable price. In this case, the enemy has to consider whether to risk their death together risk of launching a nuclear strike against the enemy.

  So, although both sides have the strength to destroy each other many times, they must not take risks if they cannot guarantee their own safety. It is precisely because of this nuclear deterrence that the cold war has not turned into a hot war.

  How much is the specific quantity? Some data can be cited. For example, from 1956 to 1968, the Soviet Navy received a total of 188 submarines, of which 56 were nuclear-powered submarines. These nuclear submarines formed the first generation of underwater nuclear fleet, and then 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 Damao Navy took over most of the property of the former Soviet Navy. The number of submarines is not very large anymore. Many of these nuclear submarines built during the Cold War have been decommissioned. In the hands of the Damao Navy, the number of nuclear submarines was further reduced, and finally there were only thirty or forty ships left.

  Where did the decommissioned nuclear submarine go?

  Lao Maozi just builds, doesn't care about dismantling, these decommissioned nuclear submarines were pulled to the Kola Peninsula, and then hung on the pier, exposed to the sun and wind.

  As for why it is Kola Port, the reason is also 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 Gulf of Nerpichia on the Kola Peninsula, there is the Gageyevo base where Lao Maozi's Northern Fleet submarine is located. In front of this base, there are two small islands, Proski and Yagir, as barriers, which are very safe. As for the port of Kola, where the submarine cemetery is located, it is not very far away.

  So, the decommissioned submarine can be dragged there directly, which is quite convenient. Of course, even this kind of thing, the old man sometimes can't handle it well, for example, when dragging the submarine to the cemetery, the submarine actually sank! After the investigation of the accident, the 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, just after dismantling the reactor of one submarine, five decommissioned submarines were sent over, so , It was not dismantled in time at all.

  In this case, the number of decommissioned nuclear submarines on the port of Kola is increasing.

  So, when Boris went to the Northern Fleet to collect the junk, the Northern Fleet was very happy. Someone came to buy their junk, which is definitely a good thing.

   It costs money to disassemble a nuclear submarine. If you sell it directly, you can still make money. Why not do it?

  However, for a second-hand dealer like Qin Tao, he has to think about it.

"Almost all the first-generation nuclear submarines built by Lao Maozi have been decommissioned, and they are tethered on the Kola Peninsula." Qin Tao said: "The technology of these nuclear submarines is outdated, and they are of no value to us. After being dragged back, they might be returned There will be a nuclear leak or something, and we don't need to dispose of the garbage for the old man."

   This is really rubbish. Whether it is the Soviet Union or the United States, it costs a lot of money to dismantle nuclear submarines, especially the dismantled nuclear materials, which are even more troublesome and cost a lot of money to dismantle.

   "Yes, if an advanced submarine can be towed back, our navy can pay for dismantling it. After all, it is useful to our navy. However, those backward models are unnecessary."

   "Advanced submarine, Lao Maozi hasn't retired yet."

Speaking of the advanced ones, Qin Tao can certainly list a lot of them. The ballistic missile nuclear submarine, when it is pushed to the Typhoon class, this kind of old-fashioned nuclear submarine code-named 941-class nuclear submarine, is the largest underwater monster. Currently, six ships have been in service. There is another one under construction. Of course, given Lao Maozi's situation, this one must be dismantled, and it cannot be built at all.

  Cruise missile nuclear submarines are definitely Oscar-class, that is, 949-class. The sinking of the Kursk made this submarine famous all over the world. Of course, it is not a good reputation.

   This kind of nuclear submarine is also uniquely equipped by Lao Maozi. It exists specifically for anti-aircraft carriers. It uses its own anti-ship missiles with a range of more than 500 kilometers to launch a fatal blow to the US aircraft carrier formation.

   As for attack nuclear submarines, the most advanced is of course the Type 971 Akula-class nuclear submarine. This kind of submarine has a smooth shape and looks like a shark in the sea. In later generations, it is still the main force of the Damao Navy.

   When it comes to the classification of these submarines, some people will always say that the attack nuclear submarine is to **** the ballistic missile nuclear submarine, and the two submarines form a formation together underwater. This kind of statement is definitely a layman.

   Submarine communication is quite complicated underwater. The radio cannot be used, and the sonar will reveal its position if it is used. Therefore, if two submarines act together, they are definitely courting death.

   Ballistic missile nuclear submarines and cruise missile nuclear submarines all carry torpedoes. When they need to fight, they rely on themselves. They are lonely ghosts underwater, and they live alone.

   At this moment, Qin Tao thought about Lao Maozi's advanced submarine, 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 was not launched from the launch tube, causing a serious accident and the cover of the launch tube was damaged. Will this submarine be decommissioned? At this moment, a naval officer said.

   "That kind of small accident can be repaired. How can the old man be willing to retire a submarine of this level?" Qin Tao shook his head.

   After all, he knows that the six Typhoon-class ships are all treasures of Lao Maozi. It was not until 2013 that Lao Maozi had to gradually eliminate the Typhoon class due to various reasons.

   "It's impossible for others, but Mr. Qin must have a chance if he comes out."

  Hearing that this person continued to fool around, Qin Tao became a little curious: "What's your name?"

   "My surname is Yang, and each name has the word Xi."

  Yang Xi? Qin Tao looked at the person in front of him in surprise: "Are you the captain of our first nuclear submarine? The captain who has participated in the nuclear submarine persistence test, extreme diving test, and underwater ballistic missile launch test?"

   "Boss Qin, how do you know?"

   This is an oolong. These things are all confidential! How did Qin Tao know?

  In the past, it could be pushed to Wu Shengli, but now, Wu Shengli is right in front of us!

  Qin Tao swallowed, and decided to change the topic directly: "Old Yang, since you have already asked, then 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 really great." Yang Xi said: "Since I left the submarine and returned to the shore, I've been like a lost soul all day long. To such an opportunity!"

  Yang Xi is indeed suffocated. A person who has been wandering in the sea all his life, once he returns to land, it is like a bird locked in a cage, longing for the outside world.

   Unexpectedly, there is actually this opportunity.

As a submarine soldier, Yang Xi is full of expectations for Lao Maozi's submarine. Although Qin Tao got one back before, he took it apart when he got it back. He was still at sea at that time, so he had no chance, and it was still an ordinary boat. Diesel electric submarine.

  It’s different this time, let’s visit Lao Maozi’s nuclear submarine base!

  In the past, when Qin Tao went out, he always brought girls by his side, whether it was Nie Shiyu or Zhao Ling. This time, he was going out with a big man, and he also felt a bit unique.
