Chapter 241 Super Aircraft Carrier
241 super aircraft carrier
Time flies very quickly, and it will be February 15th in the blink of an eye.
The day for the third fleet's ocean training has finally arrived.
On that morning, everyone got up early, had breakfast, dressed neatly, and put on the military green flight suits of the Navy Aviation Army.
The sky-blue flight suit has always been the standard for Chinese Air Force pilots.
But the color of the Navy Air Force flight suits is slightly different, of course, this has only been changed in recent times.
The fabric of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force's winter flight suit is sheepskin leather, and the outerwear of summer flight suits is usually made of thin fabric, which is characterized by cold resistance, wind resistance, warmth, moisture permeability and lightness.
The color of the flight suits of foreign air force is generally green and desert yellow. They are used to wear in desert environments and are all protective colors. They can play a role in camouflage after the pilot is shot down.
Among foreign troops, the US military's flight suits are more representative. They are integral, with zipper openings at the front, companion elastic bands at the waist and cuffs, and zippers at the bottom of the trousers. There are 8 pockets that are opened and closed with zippers on the clothes, two on the chest, two on the front of the thighs, two on the front of the calves, one on the inner side of the left thigh, one on the inner side of the left thigh, and one on the essential daily necessities for flight and parachuting.
Chen Fei and his team also adopted this specification and the color turned into military green.
At around 8 o'clock in the morning, several buses drove into the camp.
Everyone gets on the bus in order.
The bus pulled everyone to the xx military port.
At this time, the ships participating in this ocean-going training mission had already been docked quietly on the dock!
A warship was hung with a long banner with a slogan "Strive for a new era and set sail for a new journey."
Another warship reads: "Take a courageous responsibility and bring glory to the country."
The dock was covered with red carpets, and a banner fluttering in the wind was hung on the rostrum, which read: "The Third Fleet of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy went to xxx to perform ocean training missions for farewell."
On the dock opposite the warship, there were neatly arranged on the dock to send off the officers and soldiers who were performing escort missions.
The bus stopped at the designated location at the dock, and then the group got off in sequence and boarded the ship.
When we arrived on the boat, we stood neatly in a row.
At 9 a.m., the fleet commander and political commissar came to the front of the rostrum in neat steps, stood attentively, turned around, and saluted the commander of the Navy Command.
"Comrade Chief, the third Navy Fleet has been prepared, the formation requests instructions to set sail, formation commander xxx, political commissar xxx!"
"Set up!" the commander replied to the microphone.
"Yes!" The formation commander and political commissar replied loudly.
Soon, they boarded the warship.
The whistle sounded and the escort formation began to set sail.
On the dock, the military band played the "Farewell March".
On the deck of the ship, officers and soldiers lined up in an order, waving goodbye to their relatives and comrades who came to see them off.
After a while, the Guangdong number slowly drove away from the dock.
At this time, the officers and soldiers standing neatly lined up on the deck then turned around and returned to their respective combat posts.
But Chen Fei and the others were not busy leaving, but stood on the deck together, looking at the vast sea and the giant Guangdong number.
Everyone has carefully learned about this aircraft carrier before, and the more they look at it, the more they like it.
The captain is almost four hundred meters long, fifty meters wide, and has a displacement of one hundred thousand tons.
Around the aircraft carrier, destroyers and frigates followed closely.
The scene is very grand.
As for how many aircraft there are, only leaders can know, but probably not a small number of them, including fighter jets, tankers, early warning aircraft, electronic warfare fighters, armed helicopters, etc., many, many.
Our army's aircraft carrier has been developing for a very short time, so after this aircraft carrier comes out, it gives people a sense of shocking emergence, just like the J-20 that year!
At this moment, standing on the deck, my whole body was deeply shocked!
The deck of the Guangdong number has been perfectly optimized, the ship island is miniaturized, and all electronic equipment is concentrated above the ship island, and the area is even similar to an early warning aircraft. From a distance, the ship island can be almost ignored, just like a steel plate floating on the sea.
The location of the ship island is closer to the tail, which also makes the parking area ahead more spacious, which is conducive to the dispatch of the first aircraft.
The number of elevators is only 3, which seems to be a regression, but it is actually considered deeply.
The change in the number of elevators is actually closely related to the shrinking and moving backward of the ship island. In addition to the unchanged port side, the elevator behind the starboard ship island was originally relatively limited in function, and it was even useless after being placed behind the ship island, so it was simply cancelled. The two seats in front of the ship island were enough to complete the task.
In addition, the elevator itself occupies the shutdown space. The more elevators, the smaller the shutdown area will be when attacking.
Therefore, the strategy adopted by Guangdong is to optimize the layout, improve the performance of a single lift and reduce the number, which can ultimately achieve higher efficiency.
These deck changes also reduce the workload of personnel on the ship, further improving the efficiency of aircraft strikes.
In addition, this aircraft carrier is a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, equipped with two new pressurized water reactors, which can achieve the same life of the ship reactor for 50 years.
Specifically for new reactors, their energy density is higher, their cycle power is lower, their structure is simplified, and their electronic monitoring system is used to supply power to a significantly increased number of electrical appliances, which can also greatly reduce the number of relevant personnel.
However, for Chen Fei and the others, the most powerful thing about this aircraft carrier is its catapult technology.
Our army's first and second fleets were both steam catapults.
After decades of development, steam catapults have approached the limit of performance at their current size.
Therefore, when we arrived at the Third Fleet, the electromagnetic catapult technology was naturally released.
The advantages of electromagnetic catapults are reflected in that first, the thrust is precise and adjustable in a large range, and can eject any aircraft from drones to super heavy combat aircraft; and the ejection process is controllable, which can smoothly increase the speed, allowing the pilot and the structure of the fuselage to be smaller, extend the life of the fuselage, and ensure the health of the pilot. Second, the power is strong.
In addition to ejection, for Chen Fei and others, the biggest advantage is the upgrade of the blocking system and the adoption of brand new electromagnetic technology.
Like catapults, electromagnetic barriers and traditional hydraulic barriers also have characteristics such as large resistance range and controllable and smooth resistance.
In fact, on the former super aircraft carrier, the load capacity of the interceptor cable was slightly lower than that of the catapult, which means that if there is a problem when the aircraft flies up, it must first be drained. In severe cases, the ammunition must be abandoned urgently to land safely. Now that there is electromagnetic resistance, this basically does not need to be done, so you can get down as you go up!
In addition, electromagnetic resistor devices can save a lot of manpower and reduce maintenance workload.
Of course, there are many places where Guangdong number is improved or achieved revolutionary development, but for pilots like Chen Fei and others, these two things are the most concerned about!
"Let's go, go back, don't affect other people's work!" Chen Fei saw several non-commissioned officers wearing yellow vests walking towards this side, so he told several other pilots of the Shenlong Squadron.
"Walk!"
"Walk!"
Chapter completed!
