Chapter 1259 Ashes-class aircraft carrier

The Type 001a aircraft carrier is just a medium-sized aircraft carrier, while the Ash Class is completely a heavy aircraft carrier, and its size can definitely stand at the top of the world.

The Ashes class ship is about 320 meters long, about 76 meters wide, has a draft of 12 meters, and a standard displacement of 90,000 tons. It is similar to the US's current Nimitz-class aircraft carrier and slightly smaller than the latest Ford-class aircraft carrier in the United States. However, like the Ford-class aircraft carrier, it adopts electromagnetic catapult technology, rather than Nimitz-class steam catapult, and of course it is not comparable to the 001a-class aircraft carrier that takes off with ski jumps.

Its power system is supported by two AH-1 nuclear reactive pressurized water reactors developed by Anshi Heavy Industry. It can be used to replace the core within a hundred years, which is almost similar to unlimited battery life.

In terms of speed, it reaches a terrifying 35 knots. For a behemoth like an aircraft carrier, a five knot more than the Nimitz class means that its power is at least more than twice as powerful as the Nimitz class. At the same time, this can also give the carrier-based aircraft more initial speed when it is released down the wind, which is conducive to reducing the burden on the ejection system and the load on the carrier-based aircraft when taking off.

In terms of defense systems, it did not adopt the most advanced "intensive array short-range defense weapon system" in the world, but relied on the strong technical strength of the An Group, and carried three "high-sensitivity laser beam long-range defense weapon systems" that are black technology for the whole world.

In combat systems, whether it is combat command, target search and self-defense, it uses the weapon system developed by An's military industry, and the specific performance has not been announced yet.

In terms of carrier-based aircraft, it can carry about 80 air early warning aircraft, fighter aircraft, anti-submarine aircraft, attack aircraft and helicopters in a conventional volume.

In a sense, this is also a domestic aircraft carrier. Although it does not give Dalian Shipyard a face, no one will be unhappy. On the contrary, once the pictures of this aircraft carrier appear, they became popular on the entire network, and they have become the most popular internet celebrity this year.

Its angular shape seems to be a film and television model cut by the designer with scissors. On its appearance, there is no turret and missile launcher, nor the dense array radar stage. There is only a prominent micro radar chamber in the center. There are three high-sensitive laser beam long-range defense weapon systems. The photosensitive plate polyhedron and laser emitters that faintly reflect colorful light make people confused. When they react, they feel that they are watching science fiction blockbusters.

In terms of materials, the overall bones and deck materials of this aircraft carrier have not been announced to the public, but China has not imported special steel from other countries, which reminds people of the 2200mpa of China Super Steel announced at the end of last year. If super steel is really put into use, China no longer needs to rely on importing special steel warships, and today there is another major event that can shock the world.

In an instant, an aircraft carrier was launched, which suddenly boiled this somewhat peaceful day, and seemed to pull this steadily moving world forward a lot, entering the subscience fiction era ahead of schedule.

The real installation of laser weapons and electromagnetic weapons suddenly made many military novices confused and suffocated.

The former is not bad. China's research on laser weapons is already at the forefront of the world. It is not uncommon to break through bottlenecks and lead to rapid research progress in the history of science, but the latter makes some hegemonic countries feel slapped in the face.

As early as July 2016, the United States had tested the electromagnetic railgun and displayed the prototype of the electromagnetic gun on the Millinokit Joint Expressway. It is expected to be equipped with troops and restart the era of cannons. However, until now, 2018 is almost half over, and they have not heard of it. Even rumors of insufficient funds were spread in the middle of last year.

Now, China has taken the lead in moving the electromagnetic gun onto the aircraft carrier and has completed a beautiful overtaking!

The world was in an uproar for a moment!

Except for a few countries whose political atmosphere is incomprehensible, it feels that this aircraft carrier is just an empty shell, and it is said that it is a big model, and that all technologies and parameters are fictional and the product of China's self-deception, most countries have a clear understanding of the technical strength of the An Group, especially those that have participated in the "cloud conference".

Then they couldn't help but think about what this aircraft carrier with a technical content that exceeds the current highest technological level of the earth means?

This means that the second island chain built by the world hegemony today is difficult to block China, a behemoth. After the first island chain was broken by the Chinese Navy and Air Force and a famous express company in a few years, the US Navy may have to retreat to the third island chain in just two or three years. The Chinese Navy has been declining for hundreds of years, and may regain its status as a maritime power!

Globalization, the Belt and Road Initiative, and foreign defenses all require oceans. China's entry into the second island chain will have a huge impact on the world, which is indisputable.

At the same time, the weapon system of this aircraft carrier is also different from the current aircraft carriers in the United States. In addition to the lack of dense array defense systems and missile defense systems, there are not many missiles, and most of them are miniaturized and miniaturized. I think there are not many opportunities to use them. It is neither equipped with large-caliber naval guns and long-range missiles like American and European aircraft carriers, nor is it equipped with a large number of missiles and torpedoes like Soviet and Russian aircraft carriers. Instead, it uses two dual electromagnetic naval guns as the main independent anti-ship weapon system, which is equivalent to denying the independent offensive and defense methods of traditional aircraft carriers!

Research institutes and arms companies in various countries cannot help but wonder whether this will usher in a new era of aircraft carriers?

If the technology of this high-sensitivity laser beam long-range defense weapon system is mature enough and performs well, it may be difficult for conventional fighter jets and missiles to enter the defense range of this aircraft carrier, and the dense array short-range defense weapon system will face elimination.

Similarly, if missiles launched by land-based and sea-based missiles on fighter jets, tanks and land-based missiles are difficult to break through the blockade of this laser beam, their status in future wars is likely to decline and may even be replaced by other weapons.

As of now, this weapon that has the chance to replace missiles is likely to be electromagnetic guns.

The Ashes-class aircraft carrier has done so with electromagnetic cannons as the main weapon to independently attack enemy ships.

Will the era of giant ships and cannons that those middle-aged teenagers long for will really restart?

Some are worried, some are excited to slap the table

An unknown era means countless possibilities, the situation may be disrupted and re-washed, an unstable era means that the powerful can do whatever they want without being restricted, the weak may be trampled into the soil, and may overtake on the curve to the throne of overlords, and the former overlords may fall from the altar. Only the helmsman who can clear the fog and accurately see the future and identify the direction can lead their country and nation to further away!

...

Compared with the 001a aircraft carrier with a standard displacement of 60,000 tons, conventional power, and ski jump takeoff, the ceremony of the ash-class aircraft carrier when it was still under construction was more ostentatious, but the naval leaders and spokespersons of the Ministry of Defense were much more modest.

"The world pattern of great powers fighting for hegemony is far away. Just like the former colonial system, it is destined to collapse. Multipolarization will be the future pattern of the world. China's revival is made with the help of the multipolar east wind. I believe it is also loved by the vast number of people in the third world who love peace. Therefore, a powerful China will never follow the path of world hegemony. At the same time, it also resolutely implements the idea of ​​mutual benefit and mutual benefit, safeguards world peace, and responds to the desire of the people of all countries to be independent..."

"We don't do that, don't engage in Big East Asia, don't be the world overlord, and never bully the weak..."

The elderly and heavy-duty Ministry spokesperson stood on the deck of the aircraft carrier and said, behind him was the double-mounted electromagnetic naval gun: three long parallel linear guides undoubtedly subvert ordinary people's imagination of guns, with extremely sci-fi shapes, and it also proves that it belongs to the rail guns among electromagnetic guns. Those who have seen Transformers V may have some impression of this new weapon.

The spokesperson's limelight was completely snatched by the naval guns, and the barrage on major video websites almost filled the screen.

It was not until the Navy spokesperson came to power that there were fewer barrage.

The spokesperson for the naval representative was still relatively young, about in his thirties, with a standard national face, and a handsome guy in the eyes of the older generation, also looked very majestic in terms of his expression.

"... The launch of the ashes-class aircraft carrier means that my country's maritime strength is about to enter a new level without looking at people's eyes, but the formation of aircraft carrier combat effectiveness cannot be determined by the excellent performance of an aircraft carrier. For an ocean long-range air strike platform, what is more important is carrier-based aircraft. Our Navy and Shenyang Aircraft Corporation plan to reach more in-depth cooperation with Anchuan Heavy Industry, and try to install the J-31 in a short period of time... At the same time, other weapons of the aircraft carrier and other members of the aircraft carrier combat group will also be matched as soon as possible to complete the reorganization of the combat group..."

"It is planned that within one year, the No. 18 aircraft carrier will be equipped with the navy, and the aircraft carrier battle group will also meet the citizens..."

Then the leaders of Anshi Heavy Industry and Anshi Heavy Industry spoke together, mostly polite words, and only gained a bunch of 666 and Anshi's mighty words on the live video website, but there was not much to be appreciated.

"The next time is the media's questioning," said a woman in a navy uniform.

After hearing this, media from various countries suddenly went crazy, and they came forward one by one, pointing at the spokespersons of the three parties on the stage.

"How long ago did the Chinese government reach a cooperation with Anchuan Heavy Industry and An's Military Industry? We don't believe that it only takes one year for an aircraft carrier to be built to launch. For an aircraft carrier, design alone may not be so short, so can we tell the truth?" A reporter from the Associated Press took the lead in getting the opportunity to ask a question.

"Anchuan Heavy Industry did have plans to establish an aircraft carrier project a long time ago, but it was not long before reaching procurement cooperation with the Chinese government, and the next issue."

"What's going on with the Anshi Group? Your background seems to be more than the world's expectations." A reporter from the French News Agency asked.

"It has nothing to do with the aircraft carrier, the next one."

"Whether the electromagnetic weapon technology, laser weapon technology and electronic technology carried on the aircraft carrier are developed by Anshi Military Industry itself or provided by the Chinese military? I believe the whole world will be very curious about this issue." said a representative from Taiwan reporter.

"It's not convenient to disclose, next one."

"The classification, classification and name of all Chinese warships have its significance, and the United States is the same. So why do you order such a very advanced marine overlord to "Ash"? I am bluntly saying that this name seems to have some destructive significance, is it because it is a king of war, just wanting to give it a more memorable name, or is it like the shark tooth painted on the fighter planes of some countries during World War II, which contains China's future attitude towards enemy warships and its outlook on the outcome of the future war?" asked a reporter from Tokyo Broadcasting Corporation.

"This name comes from the designer of this aircraft carrier. The government left the naming rights to us, and we gave it to the creators of this ship. In fact, I don't know why they gave such a name. Perhaps it is to commemorate the years when China had no navy at all. Isn't the current navy reborn from the ashes of that year?" said the person in charge of Anchuan Heavy Industry with a smile.

In fact, it is because the prototype of this aircraft carrier originated from the once powerful empire in the Western Hemisphere in the Doomsday World. The retired aircraft carrier of the Baixiso Empire was only modified by the designer. The capital of Baixiso, Sinuya City, translated as the City of Ashes, and this aircraft carrier is also to commemorate it.

"Does An's military industry consider accepting customized weapons from other countries?" said Indian reporter.

"We have no right to decide on this unilaterally. We need the approval of our government. Maybe you can ask the two people next to me, the next one."

“…”

When the spokespersons of Anchuan Heavy Industry and An's military industry were busy, the spokespersons of the Chinese Navy and Ministry of National Defense were surrounded by a group of reporters, constantly accepting speculation and concerns from journalists from various countries and constantly clarifying for the motherland.

"We will never use aircraft carriers to deter neighboring countries..."

"We will give priority to existing military aircraft..."

"The Type 002a aircraft carrier will still be built, and will form a high and low combination with the ash-class aircraft carrier to form a fleet..."

"No need to consider whether China's fiscal and military investment can afford the maintenance and expenses of the three aircraft carriers. Since we have built it, we will not let it stay in the harbor. Not only that, we will also speed up the construction of warships and strive to make the aircraft carrier battle group form combat effectiveness as soon as possible and make world peace..."

"Whether China will increase military expenditures is not within my answer. At the same time, this is also our internal affairs. Our country will never allow any country to intervene in any form..."

"Yes, we also have cooperation with Anchuan Heavy Industry on submarines, and this project will continue..."

"Strategic bombers and armed helicopters are currently in the air force, and as a spokesperson for the Navy's Department of Information, I have no right to answer them."

The spokespersons of the Navy and the Ministry of Defense answered questions meticulously, and were proud of themselves, but they still had to maintain a serious expression on their faces. It was not until half an hour later that the questions from journalists from various countries were concluded. This was a national interview, not entertainment news. They dared not leave. As soon as the spokesperson announced that the interview was over, they all left in a hurry and prepared to write a wonderful manuscript.

Among the media, there is only a stream of clear streams

An's Media, who has been in contact with each other.

This female reporter standing with professional camera equipment has been standing three or five meters away, almost not appearing in the camera. Most of the time, she even stood on an aircraft carrier and looked around, imagining the empty deck with a picture of a carrier-based aircraft covered with aircraft.

It all depends on the device to broadcast the picture live to the entire network, giving netizens a chance to share their joy.
