Chapter 721 Land Escort Fleet

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The preparation of the land-based aircraft carrier was carried out very quickly, and the personnel transferred by the military quickly mastered the driving method of this huge land-based aircraft carrier.

    But mastering the driving method does not mean forming combat effectiveness.

    They are now only able to drive this huge land-based aircraft carrier. There is still a long way to go before they can drive it to fight and exert its full performance and combat effectiveness.

    But the plan to support the European battlefield forces them to have no more time to adapt to and master this land-based aircraft carrier.

    Especially after Chen Xin initially mastered the operation of the land-based aircraft carrier, they upgraded it again and installed the original anti-gravity device.

    This immediately made the crew members who had initially mastered the driving methods of land-based aircraft carriers feel very uncomfortable. After all, you have finally worked overtime and spent time to master a technology. As a result, the technology has been upgraded the next day and you need to start all over again. Who should replace it?  Everyone will feel very uncomfortable.

    But these soldiers did not have any complaints. Instead, they became more serious and devoted in re-mastering the relevant operating technologies of the upgraded land aircraft carrier.

    This is partly due to their sense of mission and honor as soldiers, and on the other hand, it is also due to their contributions as captains of this land-based aircraft carrier.

    As the captain, he had already learned about his arrangements from Chen Xin and had anticipated the installation of anti-gravity equipment, so he had already made preparations before.

    Therefore, these crew members can adjust their status in time and quickly return to work.

    However, as a former naval officer, although he is satisfied with this land-based aircraft carrier in all aspects, he is still dissatisfied in some aspects.

    To this end, he specifically found Chen Xin and pointed out to him what he was dissatisfied with.

    "Academician Chen, it is true that the land-based aircraft carrier is a good ship, and its force is also very powerful, but is it too weak to have only one ship? What about the accompanying fleet?" This is the captain's biggest dissatisfaction with the land-based aircraft carrier, and he also feels that  What I don¡¯t understand the most.

    As a naval officer, in the captain¡¯s impression, not to mention small naval ships, large ships are never the same ship when dispatched.

    Especially the aircraft carrier, which is the core of the fleet, must bring the entire aircraft carrier formation as a escort every time it sets sail.

    Although some people boast of the aircraft carrier's strong anti-strike capability and survivability, and even point to the aircraft carrier that was sunk by several nuclear explosions in the past, in fact anyone who truly understands the aircraft carrier knows that the aircraft carrier itself is fragile.

    Its strength relies on carrier-based aircraft and its escort formations.

    A simple aircraft carrier can be sunk by just one submarine, and even an approaching torpedo boat can send a huge aircraft carrier to the bottom of the sea.

    Therefore, when countries use aircraft carriers, they will equip the aircraft carriers with large escort fleets.

    But there are obviously no land-based aircraft carriers. Not only do they not have escort fleets, they don¡¯t even have escorts.

    Of course, the main reason for this is that land-based aircraft carriers are not real aircraft carriers. There is no precedent or experience to refer to when building a convoy fleet.

    After all, operating an aircraft carrier on land and operating an aircraft carrier in the sea are two completely different concepts.

    But when the captain raised this issue to Chen Xin, he naturally took it seriously.

    It¡¯s just that this matter is obviously not something that can be accomplished overnight. Even if Chen Xin has the help of the system, it is not easy to build an escort fleet that can match the land aircraft carrier.

    Therefore, facing the captain's request, Chen Xin could only temporarily agree to consider the matter, but could not give him a promise.

    "I can't help you with the frigate fleet for the time being. Even if I can complete the design of the frigate fleet, with the current state of the country, it is impossible to build such a fleet in a short time." Chen  Xin explained to the captain that this was also true. After all, even if there was a system, he couldn't make something out of nothing.

    However, Chen Xin still comforted the captain: "You don't have to worry too much about this. There is 3D printing equipment on your ship. After you enter Europe, you can request supplies from European countries under the banner of producing equipment for them.  Occupy a mining area.

    Then you can use 3D printing equipment to create more mobile bases and tanks, and use mobile bases and tanks to build a land defense system. Although it is not as good as your navy's previous fleet, it is still useful.  "

    Chen Xin¡¯s words are not just comfort, after all, 3D printing equipment can indeed do this.

    No fleet?  It's not a problem, as long as you dig all the way, refine the ore into raw materials, and then use 3D printing equipment to make it.Printing, as long as there are enough mine pipes, it doesn't matter how many fleets are needed for 3D printing equipment.

    So after hearing what Chen Xin said, the captain had no choice but to leave. After all, the current situation was like this, and it was indeed impossible for the country to build an entire fleet for him.

    But after the captain left, Chen Xin did not give up thinking about this matter.

    As the captain said, the aircraft carrier really needs the cooperation of the fleet to play its greatest role.

    And even if it is not possible to build a frigate fleet for the time being, it will not cost much resources to think about how to design a land frigate.

    Compared with aircraft carriers at sea, there is actually not much essential difference between land-based aircraft carriers. It¡¯s just that when Chen Xin designed land-based aircraft carriers, he emphasized its strike power and can launch more missiles. At the same time, it cannot be as powerful as sea-based aircraft carriers.  That makes the flight deck so big.

    This also leads to the fact that in terms of the design and considerations of frigates, there is not much difference between land and sea.

    Big guns and giant ships are no longer popular in modern warfare. At that time, the federal warships could not wait to use plastic. The most advanced destroyer in the world even used carbon fiber as a material.

    "But the cost of shipbuilding is so high that even the world's largest economy like the Federation cannot afford it, and for land, a certain amount of defense is still necessary, at least it can't be hit by a civilian ship and the entire ship's side will be torn into pieces like paper.

    After all, there are far more problems and attacks to be faced on land than at sea.

    At sea, it is impossible for a team of frogmen to dive and install bombs on the bottom of a warship, but on land, it is not easy for a team of special forces to plant mines and explosives on a mobile base or on the path of a land-based aircraft carrier.

    Therefore, defense is a must, and it must also have a certain obstacle clearance capability to open up a path forward for the land-based aircraft carrier, and it must also have the strike capability of a firepower platform.

    In short, the frigates needed by land-based aircraft carriers must at least have the defense and firepower to withstand infantry attacks, and they must also be able to cooperate with land-based aircraft carriers in accompanying operations

    To achieve these goals, there were too many things to consider in the design of such a land frigate, and Chen Xin had to turn to others for help.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
