Chapter 123 Air and Space Battleship

Bai Zhongqi looked at the holographic screen in front of him, which was showing the reception and production status of military equipment for country C.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the establishment of the Star Alliance, Bai Zhongqi provided Country C with a massive amount of military equipment, which was terrifyingly large. Iridium is preparing to provide about 2,000 of the most advanced J-20evo aerospace fighters for the Air Force of Country C alone. This is only manufactured by Iridium for Country C. Country C itself can also manufacture them if it needs them.

The Iridium United Empire has more than doubled the production capacity of its atomic equipment. Once the Emerald Star Orbital Building Complex is completed, Iridium will have more than five times the initial manufacturing capacity of the R19 fleet. These atomic construction equipment will continuously provide various products for Iridium. Bai Zhongqi assigned 4 atomic construction equipment to be responsible for the production of military aid. The other equipment is still mainly used to produce equipment and products used by Iridium.

In addition to the J-20evo as a representative aid product, Iridium is also manufacturing other weapons such as the modified Y-20 and the newly designed H-20 for Country C. Some weapons that do not have space navigation capabilities will be built by the C people on the obtained neuron production lines, and Iridium will provide them with part of the raw materials as appropriate.

The production plans that Bai Zhongqi saw include, in addition to the J-20evo fighter, the Army's White Rhino amphibious combat vehicle and the Saber-toothed Tiger individual armor; the Air Force's Z-20MAG utility helicopter, Z-22 carrier rotorcraft, and Z- 24 armed helicopters, etc. These equipment are often limited in size and produced very quickly. Basically, one batch is produced and directly loaded onto the Iridium whale cargo spacecraft and transported to the mainland of country C. Models such as the Y-20 and Y-25, which are large in size and difficult to transport, were directly built by the Chinese people.

His Majesty the Head of State has just received news that the first neuron production line has been installed and debugged at a production base located in Qindi with the assistance of Iridium engineering personnel. The first product to be launched is the magic modified vertical version. -20. The second production line being installed here will also produce the super giant vertical transport aircraft, also known as the Y-25.

At this time, it is naturally impossible for Country C to digest and absorb Iridium technology. Everything has just begun, but this does not prevent them from directly using the programs and production equipment prepared by the Iridium people to create products that are many times more advanced than this era. .

The technology for all military aid products has been provided to Country C, and producing a complex weapons platform is no more difficult than using a washing machine. The steps are even somewhat similar: the first step is to put various raw materials into the entrance of the neuron production line; the second step is to press the switch; the third step is to wait for a period of time and pull away the produced equipment.

The working hours to produce the Y-20 vertical version are only 110 minutes. Although this transport aircraft is much larger than the J-20evo, the technical difficulty is much lower, so the production working hours are not much more.

This production line has successively produced 8 Y-20 vertical descent versions in one day, which is more than the number of Y-20 prototypes from development to current mass production.

This situation has made the military of country C full of expectations. It won't take long for them to accumulate a large number of super-era weapons in their hands.

Not all military aid weapons are left to the people of Country C. Three weapons will be manufactured and provided by Iridium, and the relevant technology has not been transferred to the People of Country C. These three weapons are all future naval weapons, type three air and space battleships.

Space battleships and starships are two different things. The former is deployed in a gravity well. Although it has aerospace capabilities, it does not have interstellar flight capabilities, and its combat targets are still enemies on the planet. The latter is a weapon whose main battlefield is in the universe, can span light years, and is usually quite huge in size.

The former belongs to the Earth Defense Force, and the latter belongs to the Space Force.

In this military aid plan, the biggest acquisition of the C Navy is the three-type air and space warship. They are: Type 003 nuclear-powered aerospace aircraft carrier and Type 059 nuclear-powered aerospace destroyer. Type 021 air and space escort boat.

The Type 003 nuclear-powered aerospace aircraft carrier is a behemoth with a full load displacement of 320,000 tons. It is powered by a fusion reactor and uses an anti-gravity engine. It can be deployed freely in the ocean, sky, and space. Its combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of some starships. Equipped with a lightweight shield system. It is equipped with 4 20WM electromagnetic guns and 2 electromagnetic rapid-fire cannons, 1024 general-purpose missile launch units, and a fully enclosed hangar that can accommodate up to 288 Killer Bee unmanned combat aircraft.

Such a type of battleship is actually more than enough for the Iridium people to equip the planetary defense forces themselves. Iridium will build a total of three Type 003 aerospace aircraft carriers for Country C. These three aerospace aircraft carriers will also become the core key for Country C to take the lead in the planet's military.

The Type 059 aerospace destroyer has a full load displacement of 15,000 tons. It also uses fusion power and anti-gravity engines. It plays the role of a knife-wielding escort for the Type 003 aerospace aircraft carrier. Weapons include 2 15WM electromagnetic guns, 2 20WM particle cannons, and 128 general-purpose missile launch units. There is also a hangar that can accommodate two small aircraft. Iridium is expected to provide a total of 30 aerospace destroyers of this type to Country C.

As for the final Type 021 aerospace escort, it has a displacement of only 352 tons. Naturally, such a small hull does not use fusion power, but uses highly concentrated energy-gathering batteries, just like the J-20 and other Air Force aircraft, but it can also be maintained for a relatively long time. time endurance. It also has an anti-gravity engine and its flight speed is the fastest among the three types of aerospace battleships, reaching Mach 2. However, the weapons are relatively meager, including a 5WM caliber electromagnetic gun and 8 general-purpose missile launch units. Country C will obtain as many as 120 of this aerospace battleship.

Naturally, even the Type 021 aerospace escort craft, with its terrifying maneuverability and the power of the electromagnetic gun, will have no problem crushing any naval ship on the earth, including US aircraft carriers.

These three types of air and space warships can not only sail on the sea, but also dive into the water, which Bai Zhongqi finds a bit incredible. This ability has also become bad news for Country C’s underwater submarine fleet.

Country C's navy will also gradually invest its main forces in this aerospace fleet, and the original fleet will be dismantled to a relatively large extent. Old destroyers and frigates such as 051 and 053 are about to be retired, and even ships such as 051B, 051C, 052, and 052B that are still in their prime have no use at all.

Warships such as 052C/D and 054A will be modified. After all, they are the strongest combat power of Country C's navy and cannot be given up all at once. With the neuron production line in place, the navy of country C is determined to stop work on the 052D Aegis ship after building the 18th ship, and stop work on the 054A after building the 30th ship. It is a pity that the construction of the three Type 055s that have already started has been stopped now. Naturally, they will be completed under the convenient conditions of Iridium technology. Finally, one Type 055 will be produced directly on the neuron production line, which means that it is highly anticipated. The 10,000-ton large-scale drive finally ended after only four ships were produced.

In addition to the 039A/B/C series of AIP submarines that will be retained for training, other Kilo-class and Type 039 submarines will inevitably be decommissioned. Nuclear submarines are generally the same, and subsequent research and development plans for nuclear submarines have been suspended indefinitely. Only a total of eight nuclear submarines of the 093 series and 094 series continue to be used. At this time, nuclear deterrence has become a joke, and if it is an underwater nuclear strike, any Type 021 aerospace escort craft hiding under hundreds of meters of water and launching missiles with a range of tens of thousands of kilometers will be better than the original The combination of strategic nuclear submarines + submarine-launched ballistic missiles is even more powerful.

The same fate is shared by the surface aircraft carrier. The Type 001A is close to being launched, so it is relatively lucky that it will be put into service. But it didn’t take long for the keel of the Type 002 aircraft carrier to be laid. After the Type 003 aerospace aircraft carrier, the Type 002 was not even considered useless. There was no objection from the shipyard, and it would be dismantled later.

These are also helpless actions. Although these warships are considered advanced and have the infinite efforts of the workers of the C country, if they fall behind, they are falling behind. The people of the C country are still very realistic after all.

Even the carrier-based aircraft above 001 and 001A are in an embarrassing situation. Among the major modification suggestions for the two surface aircraft carriers provided by Iridium, the avionics equipment will be greatly improved, Global-Battlefield-Situation-Awareness (Global-Battlefield-Situation-Awareness) and new combat systems will be installed, and sophisticated missiles will be installed for self-defense. The bow of the ship was flattened and straightened, and two fillet decks were added to the left end to increase parking spaces. The main battle carrier aircraft is replaced by Killer Bee, and the standard mission layout can carry 50 Killer Bee fighters.

In the future, all country C fighters will have the ability to rappel, and even the huge J-20evo can be boarded on ships, so the Flying Shark, which has low combat effectiveness, is no longer of use. I don’t know whether it was for emotional reasons or other considerations, but HNA of Country C still begged Iridium personnel to make a magical modification plan for Flying Shark.

In the plan, the new Flying Shark will also use concentrated energy batteries and electric ion propulsion. It has global battlefield situational awareness and new data links, cloud operations and other systems, as well as quantum computers and artificial intelligence assistants. In terms of weapons, it can carry up to 40 exquisite missiles.

Because both 001 and 001A have straightened their bows, the New Flying Shark simply became a short take-off/vertical landing fighter. In fact, it is mainly short take-off and landing, ensuring that it can take off with a full load within less than 80 meters.

Under the new layout, the two aircraft carriers 001 and 001A can carry up to 36 J-15s for mission deployment.

To be fair, although this improvement is significant, the effect is definitely not as good as the newly designed fighter. It may be able to defeat enemies at the level of the F-22 in beyond visual range air combat and dog fights, but it cannot be compared with the J-20evo and the Killer Bee.

However, this will avoid the deployment of only drones and no manned aircraft on the two surface aircraft carriers in the future. Bai Zhongqi doesn't think there's anything wrong with a warship's flying wing being all drones. Perhaps this is because Country C's military has a fixed mindset and lacks full trust in unmanned systems.

A large number of naval personnel have entered deep sleep learning and begun to master the use of new weapons.
