Chapter 906: Buy a second-hand aircraft carrier
Qin Guan naturally recounted the plot of "High Aspirations". How a genius but unruly pilot conquered the sky. This story made the generals of the Eagle Country feel excited, yes, this The script sounds great.
It seems that the Navy can cooperate vigorously to make such a film.
Admiral Treen led everyone, chatting and walking. He was already on the bridge. Looking down from the bridge, the large deck was even more spectacular.
The naval officers of the Han State are all yearning for when they can own such a great sea steel wall to protect the motherland's sea frontiers!
At this moment, Qin Guan stretched out his hand and pointed to the distance: "Your aircraft carriers are really quite a lot. There are still several ships over there."
Following Qin Guan's direction, everyone saw that Admiral Treen couldn't help but shook his head: "The warships over there are not active, but our retired warships. Those aircraft carriers are all in the Monkey War. Retired after the end."
That is the warship cemetery.
The Eagle’s navy is wealthy and will never live for three years, three years old, and three years old. They love the new and hate the old. At the same time, because it is impossible to operate multiple aircraft carriers, after the new aircraft carrier enters service, The old aircraft carrier will be retired and sealed up.
This kind of retired and sealed aircraft carrier enters the warship cemetery, letting the wind blow and the sun, and then unsealing when needed to restore combat capability at any time.
After all, once it enters a state of war, it is very difficult to rebuild an aircraft carrier. In contrast, it is very easy to unseal a previous warship. This is the background of a big country.
The other side actually doesn't want such a good warship.
Qin nodded his opinion: "It turned out to be like this. Can we buy this kind of obsolete warship?"
The high-ranking officials of the Han National Navy present suddenly became excited.
Aircraft carrier! The dream of an aircraft carrier of the Han Navy for many years now suddenly became clear. Qin Guan proposed to buy a second-hand aircraft carrier from the weapon cemetery of the Eagle State!
Although it is second-hand, although it is eliminated, it is a treasure to the Han Navy.
It's just that the senior management has no plans yet.
Even if you have bought an aircraft carrier and want to re-enter service, you need to invest a lot of money. The above carrier aircraft, the refurbishment of warships, etc. are all astronomical figures. Now, buy four Kidd class ships for the Navy. , Is already the biggest investment. Will the central government agree to buy an aircraft carrier?
Throughout the 1980s, the central government discussed whether to purchase aircraft carriers. The military supported it. They believed that without aircraft carriers, it was not enough to protect the seas of the motherland. However, many economic experts thought it was not worth it. It is not cost-effective to invest so much. Moreover, what the motherland pursues is a defensive policy. Shore-based aviation is enough. Why do you want that offensive weapon?
Even when a veteran bought the Varyag as a merchant, he was once suspected, investigated, and believed that there was something shameful in it.
The Navy’s aircraft carriers developed so hard. When the Liaoning cruised majesticly on the ocean, it finally gained the confidence of a big country.
Now, just at the end of 1980, when Qin Guan was inspecting the Eagle Nation's naval fleet, he suddenly pointed to the other's aircraft carrier cemetery and said vigorously, can we buy it?
How can it not make people's heart moving?
Admiral Treen still had a smile on his face: "What did you buy for?"
The Han country does not have this strength, and the weak national power of the Han country can't maintain it after buying an aircraft carrier. Even the four Kidd-class ships were purchased with gold and sold out. Now, I still want to Want to buy an aircraft carrier?
Next, Qin Guan's next sentence surprised everyone.
"Dismantling." Qin Guan said.
"Our country is undergoing economic transformation and seizing opportunities for development. Now, we intend to vigorously develop the shipbuilding industry, and we have also decided to vigorously develop the shipbreaking industry. For you, this kind of small work that is not worth doing is handed over. Give it to us."
It turned out to be shipbreaking!
Generally speaking, shipyards are capable of shipbreaking at the same time, and the disassembled parts can be sold for a lot of money. However, in developed countries, shipbreaking is not cost-effective.
Why? Because of the high labor costs, this is the same as foreign garbage. In foreign countries, garbage is sorted and recycled, and it is not used in China. Because there are a group of old men and women who pick up garbage in China, they have long been recyclable. .
At the same time, foreign garbage enters the country and reprocessed can also make money, but this kind of money comes at the cost of environmental pollution.
In contrast, the dismantling of ships will cause very little pollution to the environment and make good profits.
After the aircraft carrier is retired, there are generally only four destinations. The first is to become an ordinary target ship for attack testing, the second is to be sold to other countries, the third is to be sealed in a military port, and the last is to be sold to a shipbreaking facility. Disassemble directly.
These aircraft carriers are now sealed up, but because they are all modified from the aircraft carriers during World War II, their performance is not advanced. Even if the catapult is added, the Tomcat carrier aircraft cannot be ejected. They are all tasteless and useless if sealed. , Might as well sell it for dismantling.
Dismantling the aircraft carrier is very profitable.
For example, later generations, the Layar Ship Recycling Group of the Native Chicken Country knew this well. When the Niu Country’s Joyous aircraft carrier was retired, it was bought at a low price of about 18.7 million Chinese yuan.
The weight of this aircraft carrier after dismantling its weapons is 13,655 tons. After dismantling, 11,854 tons of ferrous metals, 610 tons of non-ferrous metals were obtained, and 11 billion tons of cables, as well as other products and scraps, were obtained.
The metal and cables used by the aircraft carrier are very easy to sell. The 110 tons of cables only sold for 34 million Chinese yuan, and sold all the sellable ones. This group received a total of nearly 100 million Chinese currency in revenue, a real small cost and high return.
Now, Qin Guan has decided to vigorously develop the shipbuilding industry and at the same time develop the shipbreaking industry. This first step is to look at these sealed aircraft carriers.
Hearing Qin Guan's words, Eisenhower's captain William said: "Chief Qin, those aircraft carriers are our reserve forces. There is no plan to sell them for the time being, and they are ready to be reopened at any time."
"Really?" Qin Guan said: "Then can we go over and take a look?"
Qin Guan is not interested in this modern nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. It is someone else's thing after all. However, since he has come here, he has the idea to buy the retired aircraft carrier.
If it is for military use, it requires the consent of the superiors and continuous reporting, but buying and dismantling the scrap iron has nothing to do with the high-levels. It is entirely a commercial activity.
