Chapter 631 No money? Check out the simplified version!

This is a precedent. The design drawings of the previous aircraft carrier can be sold, and the design drawings of the current warship can also be sold. Of course, the radar and missile equipment attached to this warship must be purchased together. In this way, the soil Chickens can directly start building the world's most advanced anti-aircraft destroyer!

   They are really not afraid that they will become fat if they miss a bite, and they will choke to death! Qin Tao thought secretly in his heart.

"Everyone makes it difficult for me." Qin Tao had a complicated expression on his face: "Out of friendship, we certainly hope to meet your request, and out of the interests of the group, we are also willing to sell to you. However, this Hongqi-12 missile system does not belong to our Mingzhou Group!"

  The ball was kicked away in one go.

  If it was ours, we could make the decision, but now, this system is not ours.

   This is also justifiable. After all, Mingzhou Group is a shipbuilder, not a missile maker. The supporting weapon system above is to be provided by brothers.

   "Mr. Qin, please contact us, we are willing to talk to the missile research and development unit about the introduction of technology!" Senyawin said.

"Okay, I can contact you, come here, and call the person in charge of the missile system." Qin Tao gave his subordinates an order: "Fortunately, the warship is still being fitted out, and the designer of this system is here. Mingzhou Group."

   "Really? That would be great!"

   Soon, a technician wearing thick glasses walked in: "Boss Qin, are you looking for me?"

   "Yes, Wang Gong, these are customers from Tuji Country. They want to purchase your air defense missile system technology. You can talk about it in detail."

"Purchasing technology? It's impossible! We only sell equipment, not technology!" Wang Gong immediately shook his head: "Mr. Qin, you should also know that our air defense system is at the world's advanced level, and it is completely comparable to that of the United States. The Aegis system is comparable, how can this kind of technology be sold to others!"

  Xeniyawen, Akar and others were very nervous. They came here to bring the technology back. If they can’t buy it back now, it’s a waste of time.

   "Wang Gong, these are my friends, you can find a way." Qin Tao was very enthusiastic.

"A solution?" Wang Gong thought for a while: "Mr. Qin, we are currently developing the Hongqi-22 missile. The Hongqi-12 technology may not be exported until the Hongqi-22 missile system is developed. Now that the customer has this intention, why not?" First purchase a few sets of our Hongqi-12, and wait until the Hongqi-22 is developed, and then we will discuss the matter of technology export."

Qin Tao nodded: "Xeniawin, my old friend, it seems that this is the only way to go, and in international arms transactions, it is also a common practice to import a set of finished products first, and then export the technology, just like we assemble J- The 11 fighters also imported two batches of the original Su-27 fighters before they were successfully introduced into the production line."

  Xeniyawen and Akar looked at each other, and then said: "Okay, let's buy a set first, how much will it cost?"

   "500 million." Wang Gong said.

  500 million?

  The faces of Senyawin and others turned dark instantly: "So expensive? Is it RMB?"

"Of course it is US dollars." Wang Gong said: "Our advanced air defense combat system is originally expensive. The US Aegis system costs more than 200 million for its own use and 500 million for export, and it is only a system. Not including missiles, the price of our system includes 500 missiles, which is much more cost-effective than that of the United States."

  The total budget of the local chickens is less than 100 million, and they still need to introduce technology. Now, just a set of air defense system costs 500 million. This is simply stealing money!

  Dongfang’s products are of good quality and cheap?

   Several people were dumbfounded.

   "Boss Qin, I have to go back to work, so I don't bother you." After leaving this sentence, Wang Gong left.

   Isn’t this too awesome? Isn't it just an advanced shipboard air defense system? Is it necessary to be so awesome? Seniawin's complexion was a little dark, and even Qin Tao's face was a little uncomfortable.

"Everyone, don't be angry. The Hongqi-12 missile they produce has advanced performance and is the backbone of domestic ship-borne missiles. Moreover, they have already sold this missile abroad. The kind with only one phased array radar and A system composed of several launch vehicles can sell for hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, the four-sided phased array radar, plus the vertical launch system, and a large number of anti-aircraft missiles, sold to you for 500 million dollars, is definitely the price of cabbage, you guys Don’t think it’s expensive, the version used by our navy is also at the same price.”

   "Really? It's too expensive!" Seniawin's face softened a little, but he still found it unacceptable.

"If you think it is expensive, then we can change the way. For example, we only provide the hull design, and you can take it back and build it yourself. The air defense missile system on it is reserved for you. You can choose it according to your needs in the future. For example, you can also buy the Aegis system in the United States, we are all good friends, and you can give us a symbolic design drawing of tens of millions of dollars."

  Anyway, the other party didn't have the sincerity to buy it, but just for the sake of obtaining technology, so Qin Tao directly chatted with them. It would be best if they could make a deal.

  Shouldn’t it be worth 10 to 20 million for this kind of advanced destroyer design?

  The native chicken can still get the money.

   "Besides, as long as you don't have any modification requirements, we can give you the design drawings now." Qin Tao continued: "If you encounter problems in the construction of the hull, you can also invite several consultants from us."

  Qin Tao is very sincere.

   "President Qin, can we go and see the warship you are outfitting?" Senyawin made a new request.

Qin Tao shook his head: "I'm sorry, the construction site is very messy, it's inconvenient to invite distinguished guests to visit, if there is a chance, our destroyer will participate in various sea exercises in the future, and we will have the opportunity to dock at your port in the future, your side Both soldiers and civilians have the opportunity to go up and visit."

It is of course impossible to visit now, but it is the most advanced destroyer in China, and no one is allowed to go on it. In the future, the beautiful Aegis battleship is sailing all over the world, and it is fine to open it to tourists, because the 052D will come out in the future. .

At this time, after hearing Qin Tao's refusal, Xie Nyawin finally stopped talking. This time it was for nothing. He thought he had a good relationship with Mr. Qin, but he didn't expect that the air defense system above was not from the Mingzhou Group. With this kind of aggressive asking price, Mr. Qin has no other choice.

what's next?

  Do you go back in despair?

   "Mr. Qin, can we hire your designer as a technical consultant to go to our country to help design? For example, this Mr. Yang?" Akar asked.

   Even if it is just to buy design drawings, the price is too expensive. They have this money, why not hire a few professional designers.

"We don't accept individual employment. If you want to ask us to design, it is also in the form of our team to help you design as a whole." Qin Tao said: "Our designers at the Mingzhou Group Design Office have signed contracts with us. Agreement, if you want to leave Mingzhou Group, you can't engage in related industries within ten years, otherwise you will be sued and lose your pants."

   This is to warn the other party not to poach people, and it is useless to poach people.

In fact, Mingzhou Group is currently thriving, the design office is constantly working, and the engineers have a lot of income, and no one will really be fooled by foreigners to engage in design, and there is no need to say result?

  Seeing that these guests were going to return disappointed, even Qin Tao couldn't bear it: "If you think the price is too expensive, you can also consider our low-end version."

   "Low configuration version?" Seniawin was very curious: "Do you have a different model? Why haven't you heard of it?"

"No way, the halo of our domestic new destroyers has fallen on our Mingzhou Group. In fact, other shipyards in our country are also capable. Our brother unit also built a 052B, which was launched a few times earlier than us. Yue, if you are interested, I can introduce you.”

  The serial number of 052C was announced to the public, but few people noticed that there is actually a 052B in front of it! Although the reconnaissance satellite above the head had discovered it long ago, the halos all belonged to the Mingzhou Group, and that warship had no sense of international presence.

   "Okay, Mr. Qin, please speak!"

  Qin Tao gestured to Yang Dawei, so Yang Dawei opened a new file.

"The biggest difference of this warship is that it uses four small phased array radars to guide the missiles, and the task of long-range search is handed over to the rear large rotating radar, which means that the phased array radar is required The quantity is greatly reduced, and the cost is also lowered accordingly. The whole system should not exceed 250 million."

  Price cut in half.

   Moreover, the design idea is almost the same as that of European destroyers!

   Senia Wen and Akar became excited again: "Can you give us a specific introduction?"

   "We only have such a simple design drawing of the whole ship, but no detailed design drawing. After all, this is not our product." Qin Tao said: "If you are interested in this kind of destroyer, I can introduce you to it."

   "Are you going with me too?"

   "Sorry, I have more important things. You should also know that we are going to conduct a joint military exercise with Da Mao, and I have to go over to join in the fun, so please ask our Yang Gong to take you there."

Anyway, our own destroyers are destined not to be sold. If you fool around with native chickens, you have to let them transfer the target. As for how to fool your brother units, I don’t care. Brother units can’t sell Red Flag Nine, so you have to take the same red flag- 12 make up the number, what this kind of radio command-guided air defense missile needs to do with small shields on all sides is not Qin Tao's consideration.

  The people in Tuji Kingdom were fooled away by Qin Tao. Anyway, these guys didn't really want to buy a warship, and Qin Tao didn't take it seriously. After finishing this matter, Qin Tao should set off again.

This time the scale is very large, No. 128 of the 10,000-ton class, No. 136 and No. 137 of the 8,000-ton class, the lineup of three warships is already very strong, another 37,000-ton integrated supply ship No. 908, The figure became even bigger.

   These four warships formed a powerful formation and sailed north, attracting countless onlookers along the way.

  Qin Tao stood on the deck of No. 908, feeling a little overwhelmed. Almost all of these warships were brought back in his hands. Before he knew it, the navy of the motherland had become stronger.

  Actually, this route is not far away. It is said that there is no need for a comprehensive supply ship, and the supplies carried by the warship itself are sufficient. However, this time there will be a search and rescue exercise, and the Jiaolong deep-sea lifeboat will also be dispatched once, so it is simply carried on board No. 908.

  No. 908 has a lot of equipment, which is enough to serve as the mothership of the Jiaolong. It would be too wasteful to bring a mothership here.

  Although there was no chance of being on those three warships, but observing from the outside, you can see the mighty majesty of the three warships.

   "It would be even better if our No. 138 can be replaced with a four-sided phased array radar." Just as Qin Tao stopped to watch, Zhang Qing, the captain of the No. 908 supply ship, said beside him.

With the launch of the first warship No. 168 with four-sided phased array radar, military fans across the country were also jubilant. Zhang Zhong said that the program has also been reported many times. Everyone is very excited now, and can't wait for all warships to install it. Four-sided phased array radar.

   "If you want to change your outfit, you have to change it a lot."

   “The overhaul is worth it.”

   "What if the cost of a major renovation is more expensive than a new build?" Qin Tao glanced at Zhang Qing: "Then should we choose a new build or rebuild an old ship?"

   It’s like an LCD TV, replacing a screen is more expensive than buying a new one! why? Of course it’s labor costs. It’s not expensive just to look at the LCD screen. However, the cost of disassembling the TV, installing a new LCD screen, and transporting it back and forth is very high.

The same is true for the current No. 138. If you look at a few phased array radar antennas alone, it seems that you can afford it. After all, it is a 10,000-ton warship. Bridge needs major surgery.

   This isn't necessarily cheaper than rebuilding, because it's not just installing, it's taking it apart!

   "New construction? If it can be completely new, of course, it's just..."

  Zhang Qing is a little curious, can we build a new 10,000-ton warship?

   "Just what? The current 052C is just the beginning. We will build more warships in the future. Our Mingzhou Group has already designed a 10,000-ton destroyer. When the opportunity is right in the future, we will start construction."

  Zhang Qing nodded: "Yes, our navy will definitely have a large number of 10,000-ton destroyers! By then, our comprehensive supply ships will not be enough."

   "If it is not enough, we will continue to build it." Qin Tao said: "In order to protect the sea area of ​​our motherland, we must have a strong navy."

  Zhang Qing nodded, his eyes full of expectation.

  When they arrived at the scheduled sea area, Da Mao's naval formation also greeted them. The Glory-class cruiser Varyag, as the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, was the most dazzling.

  On the bridge, Alexei, the captain of the Varyag, looked at the formation in the distance with envy in his eyes.

   "Their warships have undergone a large number of modifications, and the number of anti-ship missiles carried on them is half as much as ours."

   Looking from the front, it is easy to see the Pin-shaped anti-ship missile launchers on both sides of the side of No. 138. There are more of them and they look more powerful.

"What's the use of having too many? Our anti-ship missiles are designed to attack aircraft carrier formations, and their range is more than 500 kilometers. Their anti-ship missiles have a range of only 200 to 300 kilometers. In terms of combat effectiveness, they can't compare with ours. , They just have no way to get our powerful anti-ship missiles, so they use another missile instead." Uyan Anke, the fleet staff officer, said.

"Looking at the top of their bridge, they don't even have an advanced radar. The roof radar is still used, which is outdated. Although Dongfang is gradually improving, there is still a big gap compared with ours." Another officer Said.

  Varyag is the flagship of the Pacific Fleet, so there are not only officers and soldiers who originally served on the warship, but also a large number of senior officials from the base. At this time, they are all commenting.

  Nicolas sat aside, silently watching the fleet in the distance, with a strange feeling in his heart.

  The East is finally strong!

  He also read the news about 052C. This kind of destroyer is also what he hopes to have the most. Unfortunately, for the Damao Navy, it is impossible to obtain such advanced equipment for a long time.

   We will definitely encounter this kind of warship in future joint exercises, so let’s take a closer look at that time.

   "The Varyag calls the Eastern Fleet, and the Varyag calls the Eastern Fleet. Now, please join our formation and start the exercise together!"

  There is a call on the radio.

  The warship here moved past, and after a series of maneuvers, it mixed with Da Mao's formation, and the Varyag and No. 138 drove side by side.

  Everyone on the warship was looking at each other.

Viewed from the side, the gap is even bigger. For example, the front and rear anti-aircraft missile boom launchers have been removed, and all of them have been changed to vertical launch. From a high position, you can see the densely packed silo covers on the second deck of the bow. The number of missiles is huge!

  The tail of No. 138 has also undergone drastic modifications, and the hangar has been expanded to accommodate two helicopters.

The big hairy officers who were still proud just now looked at this warship, and their mood gradually became strange. They felt that the effect of this kind of warship's improvement seemed to be very good, better than theirs, and seeing how brand new it was, It is even more incomparable.

   Their hearts are a little sour.

   Fortunately, the two modern-class ships have not been modified much, and they are mixed into their formation. There is nothing special. If the hull number and the flying national flag and navy flag are not different, people will think it is a fleet.

   "The exercise has begun!" Nicholas said: "According to the original subjects, conduct a joint maritime search and rescue exercise!"

  The subjects of these exercises are completely different from the previous ones. They are used to fighting with real swords and guns. If they don’t fire a few missiles and hundreds of rounds of naval artillery shells, can they still be called exercises?

  Is this kind of rescue operation what their navy should do?

  Although they were dissatisfied, they were still acting according to the order. After all, this was the first joint exercise, and they wanted to show their true level.

  The hangar door opened, and the Ka-27 carrier-based helicopter was pulled out of the hangar. A few minutes later, the helicopter roared into the sky.

   This means that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Lao Maozi's navy used to be able to face the US Navy at sea. Although it has declined now, these abilities still have not been let go.

  Here, on the warship from the east, the helicopters also flew up. Several helicopters flew in different directions to search and rescue in the open sea.

Standing on the deck of No. 908, Qin Tao could only watch the excitement. Even because of the slow speed of their supply ship, he couldn't join the formation at all, and could only slowly sway behind the formation. with.

"President Qin, I heard that you proposed the subject of the exercise?" During the time on the warship, Zhang Qing followed Qin Tao all the time, chatting with Qin Tao whenever he had something to do, trying to learn more from Qin Tao .

   "I just said a few words casually. The inspiration for our exercise comes from Unrestricted Warfare. Have you read this book?"

"Of course I've read it. The book Unrestricted Warfare has become a classic military textbook. I heard that it is used by the United States Military Academy at West Point. By the way, this book has just been published, and it accurately pre-researched the incident that took place in the United States. Action, it's amazing!"

  Qin Tao smiled: "A new military revolution is coming, and we need to adjust our thinking in time to adapt to the new situation."

  Zhang Qing nodded, watching the helicopters on the sea in the distance rescue the people in the small boat on the water, and suddenly thought of something: "I heard that during this exercise, Da Mao dispatched submarines underwater?"

   "Yes, Da Mao still wants to do the same thing as during the Cold War. Moreover, even if the content of the exercise is changed, they can't give up dispatching submarines. After all, this is the only place Da Mao is better than us at present."

On surface ships, Dongfang is catching up quickly. Now it has a huge water force headed by the 001 aircraft carrier, and it has also launched the world's second type of shield ship. Therefore, Da Mao's water power is no longer stronger than Dongfang, especially the Pacific Fleet. However, under water, Da Mao still maintains the second largest underwater nuclear submarine force in the world.

  Eastern nuclear submarines are definitely not comparable to Big Mao.

  It’s like two children growing up together, always being compared by their neighbors. Growing up under the aura of neighbor’s children is actually very pitiful.

   "Then what nuclear submarine will they dispatch?"

  "The ballistic missile nuclear submarine will definitely not be dispatched. The biggest possibility is the Type 971. Of course, it may also be the Type 949."

   "Type 949? Oscar-level? This is a big guy." Zhang Qing said.

  Lao Maozi’s surface ships, the largest one, the Glory class, is only more than 10,000 tons, but the underwater Type 949 nuclear submarine is a big guy with a displacement of more than 20,000 tons!

  After Typhoon retired, Type 949 is the biggest underwater monster!

   "Based on Da Mao's naval funding, at most one submarine can go to sea this time. Their submarine force will definitely go through some competition. Therefore, it is possible for a big guy like 949 to come out."

  Qin Tao is right. At this time, under the water of the exercise, the huge K-442 is sailing silently.

  (end of this chapter)
