As the early battleship of the Imperial Navy Fleet, naval officials were particularly careful in selecting light frigates. They compared the various values ​​of the bidding warships item by item, and listened to the hired naval consultants to comment on the advantages and disadvantages of each type of light frigate.

Then the "Sailorfish" class light frigates provided by Saroyan Ruks Shipyard soon stood out from the numerous bidding warships.

The Ruks Shipyard has a long history and has a rich experience in shipbuilding. Compared with all shipbuilding yards on the entire Eastern Coast, the Ruks Shipyard is also a top-ranked shipbuilding factory. Although due to the limitations of the empire, the Ruks Shipyard has never built warships, it must have the ability to build warships.

However, the Lux Shipyard's excellent light frigate this time was far beyond everyone's expectations.

The speed on paper actually reached 27 knots. Among all kinds of warships with a speed of less than 20 knots, 27 knots mean that the sailfish-class light frigate can easily throw away all ships and then calmly penetrate through the gaps in the enemy fleet.

Moreover, the high speed of the Sailfish Light Frigate is not based on the sacrifice of the defense and military equipment of the warship.

This light frigate performed very well in other aspects.

The standard displacement is 1,350 tons, the full load displacement is 1,996 tons; the ship length is 93.29 meters, the ship width is 11.58 meters, and the draft is 3.33-3.50 meters; 2 standard fuel/thermonuclear dual-powered steam engines, with a speed of 27.15 knots; the equipment is 3 dual 105 mm main guns, 2 quadruple high-level dual-use rapid-fire guns, 4 dual air defense machine guns; 1 deep-water bomb launcher; and two triple torpedo launchers.

There are 180 crew members.

Fully equipped anti-submarine equipment.

The endurance is 2365 nautical miles (13 knots of cruising speed).

High speed, high firepower, high endurance and versatility make the Sailfish-class light frigate one generation higher in overall performance than the same-class warships. Even when facing the main fleet of battleships and cruisers from the Eastern countries, a large number of Sailfish-class light frigates can deal with it with their powerful maneuverability and torpedoes.

Marshal Hopkin believed that... this is the light frigate needed by the Imperial Navy. If the sample ship sent by the Rooks Shipyard can match the data on paper during actual testing, then there is nothing to choose when it comes to the choice of the light frigate.

The Sailfish Light Frigate has officially entered the sea trial stage.

A white warship slowly sailed away from the dock. It was very slender and had a much smaller ammunition area compared to the warships of the same level, which invisibly increased its survivability in naval battles. However, the narrower the hull, which required the balance design of the warship; and the smaller the deck, which made the military system work normally and whether it would interfere with each other. It also tests the designer's ability.

The sailfish light frigate left the dock and began to accelerate, and the two chimneys located in the middle of the hull rolled upwards.

Daliang also noticed this light frigate that was accelerating. Its bow splits the sea, like a galloping ocean beast.

This is not a warship that can be designed in this era.

These days, Daliang has been looking at ship design drawings from all over the world. He knows what level the light frigate is at this time. There are too many ships in front of him that exceed the same level. Many things can be said to be revolutionary changes, and there is no over-verification and it appears directly on this warship.

"Who is that light frigate belonging to?" Daliang asked Anne, who had not left yet.

Anne recognized the origin of the light frigate after a glance, and she said: "It was the light frigate brought by Saroyan Ruks Shipyard... Why is its hull so narrow? How can it be so fast?"

Ruks Shipyard, they have never built warships.

Daliang was even more sure that this warship was definitely not designed by Ruks Shipyard. On this planet, only Scarab Company can come up with such advanced warship designs.

Unexpectedly, they were going to humiliate me here.

After guessing the layout of the scarab here, Daliang said to Anne: "It is not only fast, but also flexible in turning. The entire fire control system layout is also very advanced, and it can cover firepower at every angle. I dare say... None of the warships of the same level in the world are its opponents.

Those who chase after him can't beat him, and those who have beat him can't catch up with him."

Hearing Daliang's praise for the light frigate, Annie asked worriedly: "Is the light frigate that Black Fire Company brought to the bid is not a match for this warship?"

"One-on-one-on-one bomb is definitely not its opponent. But... I said, my warship is the most suitable for the Florminke Empire Navy. Go and find the Navy Minister. After I show the warships designed by Blackfire Company, he knows who to choose."

Anne left, and all her conversations with Daliang were seen by Ruks not far away.

Sure enough... the Whitehead family wanted to make a big profit by taking advantage of the Navy's large fleet's purchase opportunity. However, the Black Fire Company was unreliable and could not even create ironclad ships that could float normally on the sea. They could only add a layer of rubber skirt outside the ship to increase buoyancy.

Now even if Marquis Whitehead interferes in this procurement, the Imperial Navy cannot give him too much share. As for other warships of the same level... they have no competitiveness in front of the Sailfish Light Frigate.

At the same time, Ruks couldn't help but sigh that the Scarab Company's strength is really too strong. Not only does the smelting technology of special steel, but the designed warships are also so powerful!

At this time, a naval officer walked up to Ruks and whispered: "Mr. Ruks, Marshal Hopkin invites you over, he has many questions about the Sailfish Light Frigate to ask you."

Rooks laughed, even if the overall situation was decided.

However, Ruks did not go to the main stand immediately, but walked through four seats to Daliang. Victory made him look very arrogant, and he said proudly: "Hello, Master Liang. I am the owner of Ruks Company and the owner of Ruks Steel Factory... Hershlet Rooks.

I heard that your Saroyang First Steel has not received steel purchase orders since its completion, so that your warehouse is full of steel ingots. It is very dangerous to not sell steel produced by a steel plant. If you cannot get large orders from the Imperial Navy, it will accelerate the bankruptcy of Saroyang First Steel Plant.

I'm here to tell you this time.

If you plan to sell your steel plant, please let me know... because my steel plant will soon need to expand its production capacity."

Daliang waved his hand and continued to look at the battleships galloping on the sea, and said to Ruks: "Okay... When my steel plant wants to expand, I will give priority to your acquisition.
Chapter completed!
