Chapter 704 Design of land-based aircraft carrier

    ??

    Although Chen Xin expressed that it was impossible to design a larger mobile base in a short period of time, both the military and senior officials still entrusted this task to him.

    Faced with a request from the military and senior officials that was half an order and half a request, Chen Xin could only agree.

    After all, this is indeed related to the victory of mankind's war against alien creatures. If possible, Chen Xin also hopes to provide more advantages for the country and mankind.

    The design of a large mobile base will naturally not be as simple as the previous mobile bases.

    It can even be said that because of the differences in function and size between the two, it is almost a complete redesign.

    After all, the size has been enlarged so much that the entire hull structure and mode of travel must be redesigned, rather than simply enlarging the original mobile base.

    Although a lot of technical experience can be learned from the original mobile base, large mobile bases still cannot copy these experiences mechanically.

    While Chen Xin was thinking about how to design a large mobile base, he also picked up a pen and paper and drew a sketch on the paper.

    According to the requirements of the military, an aircraft carrier actually best meets their requirements, but it is obvious that the aircraft carrier cannot be driven to the shore, and the previous disaster has also made all the navy's ships useless, and the aircraft carrier is naturally no exception.  .

    "So you want to design a land aircraft carrier?" Chen Xin looked at what he had randomly sketched on the paper, which looked like an aircraft carrier with tracks, and shook his head helplessly.

    ¡° Drawing is simple, but if you really want to design it, it¡¯s not as simple as just installing tracks under the aircraft carrier.

    Among other things, the displacement of a large aircraft carrier is more than 70,000 tons, and the largest one can even exceed 100,000 tons. Such a huge weight does not matter at sea, as it is supported by sea water, so there will be no problem.

    But on land, all these weights are pressed on the ground, and any uneven force may cause the entire hull to overturn or even break.

    Moreover, a runway that can take off and land fighter jets, even for carrier-based aircraft, needs to be at least two to three hundred meters long. Is it possible for such a large movable object to move on the ground, not to mention the issues of load-bearing and stress?  The terrain to pass through is a problem.

    However, since I took over this job, I still have to do what I have to do.

    The requirement put forward by the military is that it can take off and land fighter jets, but it is unrealistic to make a runway as long as two to three hundred meters long like an aircraft carrier.

    However, runway taxiing is not the only way for fighter jets to take off and land. The catapult or vertical take-off and landing used by the aircraft carrier itself to shorten the runway length are all methods that can be used as a reference.

    "Use vertical take-off and landing to shorten the runway length and increase missile silos" Chen Xin gradually sorted out his thoughts. As his thoughts were clarified, he gradually came up with a general direction.

    As Chen Xin gradually found the direction, the sketch on the drawing gradually became clear: "A vertical take-off and landing position is set up on the deck, a lifting platform is installed, the hangar is placed below the deck, and a missile silo is installed on the side, which can be launched diagonally.  You can usually put it away"

    In this version of the design, Chen Xin did not lengthen the runway too much, but only changed the landing platform extending from the side of the mobile base hangar to be placed on the top deck.

    And it adopts vertical take-off and landing method, using only the top deck as a take-off and landing position and not using it as a runway, so there is no need to extend the length too much.

    As for the missile launch port, it was originally placed on the top deck. Although the launch port of the original mobile base can be retained after the top deck is used for take-off and landing, in order not to affect the take-off and landing of aircraft on the deck.

    After Chen Xin thought about it for a while, he placed it on the side of the mobile base and made it at an inclined angle, with the bottom inside the mobile base and the launch port on the outside.

    "That's enough. Now we need to make it a little bigger." Chen Xin looked at what he had designed and nodded with satisfaction.

    Although it is said that converting the drawings into physical objects requires a lot of process and verification, and many places also need to be modified according to the actual situation, but at present this is just a conceptual design drawing, which can reflect the design ideas, but it does not need to be done.  Too detailed.

    Therefore, it did not take too long for Chen Xin to complete the drawings of the so-called large-scale mobile base.

    The large mobile base on the drawing is indeed larger or longer than the mobile base currently used by the military.

    After Chen Xin considered it comprehensively, although he did not turn the top deck into a runway, he still lengthened the overall length of the mobile base and installed it on the top deck.It is equipped with catapults and arresting cables so that it can be used to take off and land aircraft when necessary.

    Of course, despite the design of such a function, the large mobile base still uses vertical take-off and landing as the main take-off and landing method. Although doing so requires redesigning a fighter jet that can take off and land vertically, Chen Xin feels that it is worth it.

    As for lengthening the hull, it is not only to allow the top deck to function as a runway, but more importantly to expand the hangar so that it can accommodate more fighter jets.

    After all, fighter jets are different from helicopters. They have stronger combat effectiveness and are also larger in size, so a hangar large enough to accommodate fighter jets is needed.

    For this reason, the decks of aircraft carriers are actually very high. Although there is a huge space inside, the largest space is always the hangar.

    Therefore, when Chen Xin was designing a large-scale mobile base, he also removed the deck below the original hangar and turned it into a part of the hangar, allowing more space in the hangar to accommodate more fighter jets.  .

    In addition, there is the missile launch port on the side. Although it is tilted so that part of the launch mechanism extends out of the hull, most of the structure is still inside the hull. Chen Xin also made certain adjustments to this part.  , but the overall change is not big.

    Chen Xin did not make any major adjustments to other parts of the mobile base. He just optimized the internal spatial structure and expanded the area used as a field hospital.

    "It looks okay, but I'm afraid the power system and mobile mechanism need to be redone!" The structural design of the superstructure is easy to do, but the mobile mechanism on the bottom is the focus of this large mobile base, which is what makes Chen Xin feel  The headache part.

    Fortunately, he didn't need to worry about this alone. After reprocessing the conceptual design drawings and transforming them into more detailed and formal design drawings, Chen Xin sent the drawings to the relevant units and asked them to work according to the drawings.  Draw a copy of the design drawing to propose the design plan.

    For Chen Xin, what he wants is not technology, but ideas. As long as the ideas can solve problems and are practical, he can transform them into actual technologies.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
