Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

The meeting room became lively. The bold idea proposed by Xu Huasheng completely opened everyone's mind. At first, they were just discussing airplanes, but in the end, they slowly turned to discussing the new mode of naval warfare.

Who said that the main offensive force of naval warfare is aircraft carriers? With the development of missile technology, the mode of naval warfare in the future will definitely change significantly.

This change is like the transformation of the main force of naval warfare from battleships to aircraft carriers. Technology changes the mode of war, and the same is true for naval warfare.

Xu Huasheng actually knows that with the development of technology, the role of aircraft carriers is actually undergoing tremendous changes.

Now aircraft carriers are the main combat force in naval warfare and are responsible for the main firepower output. Other ships are mainly to protect aircraft carriers and allow them to output stably.

But the mode of naval warfare in the future will change. The 10,000-ton destroyer with a sword escort of an aircraft carrier is slowly evolving towards the direction of an arsenal ship. For example, China's future 10,000-ton destroyer will carry an anti-ship ballistic missile with a range of more than 2,000 kilometers, and the attack speed is super fast, and it can carry many missiles at a time.

Such a 10,000-ton destroyer dares to fight against an aircraft carrier alone.

At that time, the tactics implemented by China were kite-flying tactics. In this tactic, aircraft carriers were no longer the main output force of firepower in naval battles. The main output force became these 10,000-ton destroyers, which could launch hypersonic firepower strikes on the enemy's aircraft carrier fleet from 2,000 kilometers away.

In this combat mode, the responsibility of the aircraft carrier became to protect these destroyers from enemy attacks, and the responsibilities were completely changed.

Large missile destroyers were responsible for ultra-long-range firepower output, and aircraft carriers were responsible for protecting the safety of large destroyers with aircraft. The naval battle mode became an ultra-long-range beyond-visual-range war mode. The warships of both sides launched missile bombardments at a distance of one or two thousand kilometers or even farther. This mode directly subverted the current naval battle mode and changed the role of aircraft carriers.

In the future, everyone will no longer compete with the number of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft. Instead, they will compete with whose aircraft carrier has more powerful island guards, whose destroyers carry more powerful missiles, whose radars are more powerful, and whose comprehensive combat systems are more powerful.

If your missiles can reach farther than the enemy, fly faster than the enemy, and your radar can see farther than the enemy, then you can take the initiative in future naval battles. When two aircraft carrier fleets fight, the war may be over before the planes of both sides meet.

In fact, this mode seems to have become an alternative battleship bombardment mode.

In the battleship era, the competition was about the caliber of the cannon, the number of cannons, the range of the cannons, and the accuracy of the cannons.

In the future, it is just to turn the cannons on the battleships into various missiles.

Now Xu Huasheng's proposal to turn bombers into aircraft carrier killers is also this kind of combat concept. If the magic changes the swan to hang the Dongfeng 17 or the Dongfeng 21, the aircraft carrier may really become an object that can be manipulated at will in his eyes.

The base became lively. At first, it was only the White Swan project team that discussed this matter. Soon, many other departments came because of the new combat concept.

Finally, some people shook people again, and many powerful figures from the Navy and the Second Artillery came over, which was regarded as poking the nest of the technology maniac.

"Everyone, from a technical perspective, it is completely feasible to have an anti-ship missile with a range of more than 1,000 kilometers or even 2,000 kilometers. It is also possible to use ballistic missiles to hit moving targets. In fact, we have already started relevant research and have made good progress."

In the huge conference room, the technical expert of the Second Artillery said directly.

It is technically possible to have an anti-ship missile with a range of more than 2,000 kilometers or a ballistic missile that can hit moving targets. This thing is not made up out of thin air. It is nothing more than some technical breakthroughs.

"Since missile technology is completely feasible, I think we should seriously demonstrate and consider new tactics. However, we cannot deny the importance of aircraft carriers. After all, carrier-based aircraft can also carry anti-ship missiles. However, one thing is certain. With the development of missile technology, the future naval warfare mode will definitely change. The combat radius of the fleet will continue to increase, and the engagement distance of the fleets of both sides will be greatly increased. If our anti-ship missiles can really hit more than 2,000 kilometers, then even if we don't have aircraft carriers, the enemy will not dare to rashly enter our waters. If they dare to come in, our land-based anti-ship missiles can give them a few waves of saturation strikes..."

A naval boss stood up and drew a circle on the map.

More than 2,000 kilometers, directly circled the Chinese waters. If the enemy fleet dares to come in, they dare to bombard him with missiles.

The number of land-based missiles is not limited by warships. This thingIt all depends on the number of Chinese missiles and China's missile production capacity.

If one hundred missiles are not enough, we will have one thousand missiles. If one thousand missiles are not enough, we will have ten thousand missiles. It's enough.

"In this case, I think our White Swan should focus on this aspect. Take anti-ship capability as the first factor to achieve it. After all, China has no intention of invading other countries or becoming the world's police in the short term. The mission of our army is to protect China from being bullied. By the way, there is also the plan of loyal wingmen that we are currently studying. I think it can also be taken out. At that time, a White Swan will bring a group of loyal wingmen to form a sea strike cluster..."

An old man said with a smile, and this proposal made everyone laugh again.

"This proposal is good. I think we should invest some funds to develop large unmanned bombers. At that time, a White Swan will go out with hundreds of unmanned wingmen. Even if the Americans send all their aircraft carriers, we dare to fight them..."

Another old man in the room said cheerfully, and this made everyone swallow their saliva. The same is true for Xu Huasheng. The White Swan brings unmanned wingmen, uses swarm tactics, and is equipped with artificial intelligence and other technologies.

At that time, a White Swan may really bring hundreds of unmanned wingmen out. At that time, even if these unmanned wingmen hang a missile on each plane, it will be a terrifying number.

Moreover, unmanned wingmen do not necessarily require too advanced technology. As long as the range is long enough, the bomb load is large enough, and the number is large enough, it will be quite terrifying.

Moreover, the drones in the cluster can be arranged in various models, responsible for air defense, anti-submarine, electronic interference, early warning, anti-ship, bombing, and even scapegoating.

At that time, war will be a comparison of technology and money.

Whoever has more money and manufactures more of these things will win. At that time, war will be a war between machines, comparing the industrial production capacity of a country.
