Chapter 630 Do you want to buy Aegis ship technology?

On the second day after Dongfang's 052C destroyer was launched, the Asan Cochin Shipyard was crowded with people.

 A beautiful warship appeared in front of everyone. The shape of this warship is very beautiful. The superstructure floats outward, showing superb design skills. However, if you look closely, it is very similar to the Eastern 054 frigate.

That's right, this is the stealth frigate that was started to be built after getting the information from Qin Tao. In Asan, it was named Talwar class frigate.

Asan's evaluation of this frigate is very high, even far surpassing their Delhi-class destroyers. After all, the Delhi-class was a design concept ten years ago, and this warship in front of him is the most modern. !

Chhetri, a senior naval officer of Asan, stood on the pier, his heart racing. After a long period of construction, this warship is finally about to undergo sea trials!

He was once in charge of the aircraft carrier project, but a big problem arose, and his old rival Sunil was also unlucky because of it. Now he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

“The Easterners’ 052C is not an advanced warship. The performance of our Talwar-class frigate is a hundred times better than theirs!” Chhetri said happily.

"Yes, this is a representative warship made by ourselves, which means we have entered a new era!"

 Everyone is talking about it.

Sunil said nothing. Of course he had to attend such an important occasion, but he had no right to speak. Chhetri was responsible for the entire project.

 His eyes looked at the slipway on the other side, where the first aircraft carrier built by Asan was being built. For them, this was a new beginning!

 I hope there won’t be any surprises in the construction of this aircraft carrier!

“The wind and waves are a bit strong today, do we really want to start sea trials?” Someone asked Chhetri in a low voice.

"Of course. Now that the outfitting has been completed, of course we have to go to sea trials." Chhetri said: "We want to show the Easterners who is the boss here."

 Everyone's hearts were filled with pride again. Yes, they are powerful. They have been able to build the most advanced stealth frigates!

This kind of frigate uses a diesel engine imported from France, a vertical launch system imported from Damao, and some electronic equipment from the Kingdom of David. Only Ah San can integrate these things together. Although there is no four-sided phased array radar, But its combat capabilities are not bad at all, because it is Asan's first warship equipped with vertically launched anti-aircraft missiles!

While everyone was watching, a few wisps of smoke came out of the chimney of the Talwar-class frigate, and the engine started!

 Woo, ow!

The warship blew its whistle and slowly sailed out of the port.

The wind and waves were quite big, hitting the hull of the warship, causing the warship to rock back and forth, but it didn't matter, the wind and waves they encountered were much bigger than this.

The diesel engine imported from France works very stably, and the stabilizer on the bow... The captain on the bridge suddenly thought of something: "Where is our stabilizer? Why doesn't it work?"

 “Report, fin stabilizer missing.”

Just after going to sea, the warship shook a few times and the stabilizer fin fell off? How is this installed?

The captain cursed a few times in annoyance, and a special sound penetrated his eardrums.

Creak, creak... It was not uncommon for the hull steel plates to make this sound in wind and waves, and he didn't pay attention to it. However, he regretted it after ten minutes.

Bigger waves hit the side of the warship, and with a crackling sound, a hole visible to the naked eye opened on the side of the ship. The hole gradually expanded, expanded... and the entire warship quickly broke into two pieces!

There were screams and panicked figures everywhere. Before the captain gave the order to abandon the ship, many people had already jumped. However, in the rolling waves, it was not easy to swim back alive.

The people on the shore were also surprised. Due to the distance, they did not clearly see the broken warship, but they could still see the blurry shadow of the warship split into two parts, and then sank rapidly.

Chhetri’s face turned pale. What’s going on?

The aircraft carrier came back, but the jump deck collapsed. A new frigate broke into two pieces and sank on the first day of sea trials! Now he is finished!

This incident quickly spread all over the world and turned into a joke. When it reached the East, Wu Shengli and a group of naval officials were inspecting the power plant of the Mingzhou Group. He was surprised at first, and then smiled. .

 “Break in two, okay! Okay!”

Wu Shengli knew the cause and effect of this incident, but he didn't expect that Ah San's construction quality would be so bad that it would sink on its first voyage!

At this time, Asan's own shipbuilding business has received a huge blow. Next, will their navy still dare to trust their own shipyards?

“Alas, this is called imitating others. You have not learned our essence, but only learned our superficial knowledge.” Qin Tao also sighed with emotion: “Everyone, do you want to go to our underground oil depot next?”

 The power station is running smoothly and everything is normal. There is nothing to see here anymore. Next, the underground oil storage in Xiaolie Mountain can be an eye-opener for everyone.

"Okay." Wu Shengli nodded: "Let's go take a look at this huge strategic oil reserve base. Your Mingzhou Group is not only engaged in military industry, it has also begun to engage in energy, and you have done it in a spectacular way. It's admirable."

“Whatever the motherland needs and whatever the navy needs, we will do it.” Qin Tao replied.

This kind of question and answer seems to be for others to see, so the others just smiled and didn't say anything.

 At this moment, Xu Zhengyang walked up gently.

“Leader Wu, President Qin, the launch of our 052C destroyer has attracted strong attention from all countries around the world. The Turkish Country sent a delegation to inspect our destroyer and has the intention to order it.”

 “Order our destroyer?” Wu Shengli was stunned for a moment.

In the past decades, domestic warship exports have been in small batches and relied on price. Only after the rise of Mingzhou Group did it export some more advanced equipment. However, destroyers, all-rounders at sea, have never been exported. However, at this time, there is actually a delegation from a country like Turkey coming to inspect?

Turkey is not an ordinary developing country, it is NATO! Such a country actually sends people to purchase warships from itself?

 This is a huge progress in the export of warships! However, our own 052C is the latest warship after all, and it carries a lot of secrets. Can it be exported to local chickens?

When the 054 first came out, Mingzhou Group planned to introduce it to the world arms market. The Navy did not agree to export the Hongqi-16 above, so Qin Tao cooperated with Damao to launch a frigate equipped with the Shijili version, and successfully sold Got out.

 Now, according to Wu Shengli’s understanding of his son-in-law, Qin Tao will definitely sell it, right? They will also ask the Navy to release export licenses. What should I do?

While Wu Shengli was still hesitating, Qin Tao spoke up: "Tuji has no sincerity at all. There is no need for us to pay attention to such duplicitous customers like them."

  Not necessary?

 Double-dealing?

Wu Shengli looked at his son-in-law: "Are you still angry because the Varyag was restricted there before when it returned to China?"

When the Varyag returned to China and passed through the Tuji Strait, the Tuji people caused a lot of trouble. Now, Qin Tao is still worried about it?

"Of course not." Qin Tao said: "I am a businessman. Just look at business matters. Customers like Tuji are not sincere buyers at all. We don't need to be so enthusiastic towards them, and they can't really buy. of."

 After speaking, Qin Tao looked at Xu Zhengyang: "For this matter, just arrange for the old factory director or others to receive it. Just fool around for a while."

“Mr. Qin, your old friend Xeniyawen is leading the team.” Xu Zhengyang continued.

 Senyavin?

Qin Tao frowned: "This old friend has helped us a lot in the past. Since he is an old friend, I am really embarrassed to let him go."

The words "let the pigeons fly" have not become popular yet, but Qin Tao often talks about it, so Xu Zhengyang has long been used to it. He knows that Qin Tao has agreed.

“Taozi, do you intend to sell this destroyer to them?” Now it was Wu Shengli’s turn to worry.

"Of course not. Senyavin is an old friend of mine, but he just led the team to have a look. He can't influence the thinking of those in the country. They come here to inspect, but they just want to get some benefits, such as We should be more confident when asking for Aegis technology from our allies.”

Wu Shengli finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Qin Tao does not plan to export this kind of Aegis battleship, he will be relieved.

“Leaders please rest assured that our 052C is related to the navy’s equipment development in the next ten years. We will never leak these technologies, let alone a country that is not very sincere in purchasing our warships.” Qin Tao said.

"That's good. After the native chickens arrive, how do you fool them?" Wu Shengli put down the burden in his heart and became curious again.

“Isn’t our Kaishan missile still in development? Let’s use the Kaishan missile to fool them,” Qin Tao said.

Since the other party is not sincere about buying it, we don’t intend to sell it, and we have to entertain old friends, so let’s just waste a few days!

That night, Wu Shengli led the team to leave. The next day, the Tuji delegation came to the Mingzhou Group. After the team leader Senyavin saw Qin Tao, he gave him a close hug.

"Qin, I'm so happy to see you!" Senyavin said: "We are very envious when we learn that the Chinese Aegis battleship you produced has been launched, so we want to come over and inspect it. If the price is right, we will introduce your technology. , to produce our own national ship.”

 National ship?

Qin Tao became curious: "Your shipyards have been merged?"

"Yes, Qin." Senyavin said happily: "Our two domestic shipyards, Tazchizak and Petik, merged and reorganized to form the Istanbul Naval Shipyard. The goal of this shipyard is to build Our national ship! Qin, let me introduce to you, this is our factory director, Mr. Akar."

 “Welcome Mr. Akar.” Qin Tao extended his hand.

"Mr. Qin, we are very envious of your development. We hope that our naval shipyard can develop as quickly as yours." Akar said: "We have organized a large number of people to study the design of your aircraft carrier. Figure, however, we know our strength and cannot build aircraft carriers yet, so we want to start with destroyers."

Unable to withstand the deception at first, Tuji purchased the design of a 28,000-ton aircraft carrier from the Mingzhou Group. It didn’t cost much at the time. Later, the design played a huge role, such as in Watts. When the Liangge passed through the strait, it was used as a bargaining chip.

Although Senyavin was angry at the time, the agreement later included giving the other party a J-31 fighter jet, and everyone was happy in the end.

However, although the aircraft carrier design drawings are available, it is not that simple to start construction. In the past few years, Tuji has finally merged two shipyards after repeated efforts and plans to build warships by itself.

However, we still dare not start with aircraft carriers. We can only start with frigates and destroyers.

"Actually, if you want to start from scratch, the destroyer is a bit too big. It is best to start with a frigate." Qin Tao said: "Our Mingzhou Group has a foreign trade type 054 frigate. Do you want to consider it? "

 Foreign trade type? Thinking of Ah San's warship, which had just been cut into two pieces in the big waves, several people felt chills in their hearts and quickly shook their heads: "No, no, we are just here for the Aegis warship with four-sided phased array radar!"

Although Ah San didn't say it, the gossip has spread a long time ago. You can tell from the appearance that Ah San's frigate uses the design drawings of the Mingzhou Group. I heard that it seems to be stolen. I don't know why. What tricks did the Zhou Group do to trick Ah San once?

Although Dongfang’s 054 has always been in good condition, everyone has already cast a shadow on this frigate.

"Qin, we have been good friends for many years. I won't hide it. In fact, we did consider frigates at first. We planned to introduce the technology of Meco-class frigates from Germany and build our own frigates. However, when we saw When you just launched the destroyer, we were excited. In the future, we must have phased array radars and vertical launch systems at sea. We need professional air defense ships to meet the possible emergence of supersonic anti-ship missiles. We I want to introduce your technology!" Senyavin said.

Qin Tao smiled secretly in his heart. Such half-truths and half-false words are the easiest for people to believe.

Assault introduced German frigates, but the Germans had no intention of transferring the warship construction technology and taught their apprentices to starve to death! Therefore, the Germans repeatedly raised prices, proposed additional conditions, etc., which the local chickens could not accept.

The chicken has always been from the left and right sources, and it is not enough to take advantage of it everywhere. How can I eat such a loss? Therefore, the business between the native chickens and the Germans was definitely not possible. In this case, Dongfang happened to launch the world's second Aegis warship, so he came to buy it.

 You are obviously here to take advantage, and you are pretending that we are friends and I am only doing this for your own good.

Qin Tao secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't point it out: "Yes, phased array radar and vertical launch system are necessary for future destroyers. Without these two, there is no way to go out to meet people. At this point , Europe has fallen behind, and the United States has various additional conditions, so coming to us is the best choice."

“Qin, can you export this most advanced equipment?” Seniyavin was delighted.

“Of course, let’s go to our conference room, and our chief designer will introduce this warship to you,” Qin Tao said.

In the conference room, Yang Dawei took out the newly revised design drawing and introduced it to everyone with red eyes.

“Our warship has a full load displacement of 6,500 tons. It uses two gas turbines and two diesel engines to form an alternating diesel-fuel power supply. Based on your favorable conditions, we have modified the design drawing into an LM2500 gas turbine.”

“You also modified the design drawing specially for us?” Looking at Yang Dawei’s red eyes, a wave of warmth surged in Seniyavin’s heart. Good friend, a true good friend!

"Yes, when I heard that you were coming, we made modifications overnight. However, the time was still too short. We only completed the modifications of the gas turbine, and the others have not been changed." Qin Tao said: "Now, let me introduce it to you."

"Okay." Senyavin was very happy: "Let's talk about the key points, which are the weapons and equipment of your warship."

"Okay." Yang Dawei nodded: "Let's introduce the weapon system next. This warship uses eight six-unit air defense missile launchers, with a total of forty-eight bombs. It uses the advanced Hongqi 12 air defense missile system..."

“Red Flag 12? We heard that you have been developing the Red Flag 9 missile?” Senyavin was surprised.

"The Red Flag 9 missile belongs to the Army. How can our Navy use the Army's missile?" Qin Tao glanced at Senyavin disdainfully: "Just like the Red Flag 16, it was developed by our Navy. The Army takes good care of it. , purchased a batch, the Army’s purchase of our Navy’s missiles is almost the same, it is impossible for the Navy to use the Army’s weapons.”

In many countries, there are conflicts between the military services and they disdain to purchase each other's missiles. Now that Qin Tao said this with a confident look, Senyavin actually felt that he was wrong.

“What kind of missile is this? Why haven’t we heard of it before?” Akar spoke.

"This is a new generation surface-to-air missile system developed by our relevant domestic institutions. Its range has reached 70 kilometers. The phased array radar it uses can guide six missiles to strike three targets at the same time. The four-sided phased array The radar can attack twelve targets at the same time and has excellent multi-target attack capabilities." Qin Tao continued to introduce to everyone: "Of course, its biggest feature is that it is cheap, an interceptor missile only costs 200,000 US dollars!"

What Qin Tao is talking about is, of course, the Kaishan-1A, which is improved on the Kaishan-1 missile. This missile has been upgraded and its range has been extended from 42 kilometers to 70 kilometers. At the same time, it uses a phased array radar It has also been upgraded, with better performance and cheaper price. Therefore, it will definitely enter the army's equipment sequence in the future and be named Hongqi-12.

 It’s okay for Qin Tao to show off the number of Hongqi-12 first.

The ability to intercept three targets at the same time is actually not high at all, but there is nothing we can do about it. Who made it guided by radio commands? The radio channels are limited!

"Can it only intercept three targets at the same time? Isn't this performance too poor?" Akar said.

"Poor? How is it possible? How much does an anti-ship missile cost? What strength does your potential enemy have to launch dozens of missiles at once to attack you? Besides, the most powerful Aegis system now can guide simultaneously How many missiles?" Qin Tao rolled his eyes at Akar, you still think there are too few?

The Aegis system is the world's first warship capable of resisting saturation attacks. It is said that its performance is very high and it can deal with hundreds of targets at the same time. In fact, it is nonsense, because it uses semi-active radar-guided missiles, and its fire channel is limited by Limited to the number of targets illuminating the radar.

When there are three targets irradiating the radar, it means that they can only deal with three targets at the same time. However, the Americans can use time-sharing irradiation to illuminate those that need guidance first, and the subsequent missiles can be launched first and then rely on instructions. Flying, waiting until the previous target is destroyed, the illumination radar will then give the final illumination to the next missile that has flown to the terminal. Even so, it is only the ability to deal with more than a dozen targets at the same time.

But the Americans have a lot of warships. An aircraft carrier formation is equipped with seven or eight Aegis warships, which greatly increases the density of air defense firepower.

As for the current 052C, it uses an active phased array radar. However, in order to improve the search range, it uses S-band, so it cannot be separated for target illumination. The method used in China is to gather a large-area S-band array. A small C-band target illumination radar is used to solve the problem. This C-band target illumination radar is also a phased array system and can be assigned to different targets as needed. The multi-target interception capability has been improved to a higher level.

However, this kind of advanced technology will definitely not be exported immediately. The phased array radar used by the Hongqi-12 mentioned by Qin Tao is also a passive phased array radar like the S-300. It is only responsible for searching for targets. The precise coordinates of the target are transmitted to the computer, and the missile's interception command is calculated and sent.

Akar stopped talking. Qin Tao's words really made him unable to answer.

Their biggest enemy is the Greek country opposite. They used to be Lao Maozi, but now they still have a very good relationship with Da Mao and Er Mao.

  No enemy can launch dozens of anti-ship missiles at them at the same time. That is unrealistic, so this interception capability is enough!

"Qin, your design is very good. Can we purchase your technology?" Senyavin said: "We hope to purchase the design drawings of this warship and the technology of the weapon system on it. This way we can build such warships in our own naval shipyards."

 What are the chicken people doing here? Buy technology directly!
