Chapter 257
The Type 55 nuclear-powered cruiser has a standard displacement of 18000 tons, a full load displacement of 22300 tons.
It is equipped with two NR-3G pressurized water reactors and two steam turbines.
The power output of a single unit reaches 45,000 horsepower, and the total power is up to 90,000 horsepower.
It adopts the method of propulsion with two shafts and two rudders.
The maximum speed can reach 32 knots.
Due to the NR-3G pressurized water reactor, the abundance of nuclear fuel rods reached 92%.
Nuclear fuel can be replaced once on a 12-year cycle.
This is almost equivalent to unlimited battery life.
In terms of ship electronics, in addition to equipping the Navy's tactical datalink system.
It is also equipped with the most advanced radars available.
It is also equipped with a three-coordinate air-to-air search radar, a two-coordinate air-to-air search radar, a three-coordinate air-to-air tracking radar, a pulsed Doppler fire control radar, a plane search radar, and an illumination radar.
All the radar antennas were concentrated on the central island of the ship.
The huge flat panel antenna is its hallmark.
And the cruiser did not have a huge chimney, and also saved a lot of deck space.
In addition to radars, there are fire control systems for various types of weapons.
For example, each of the three anti-aircraft missiles has a different lighting radar for guidance.
The 29 anti-submarine weapon also has its own independent fire control system.
Transistor computers of various models are also used in large quantities.
It is the most digitized type 1 warship in the entire navy today.
At the same time, it is also a type of warship equipped with the largest number of missiles.
For nuclear-powered missile cruisers with missiles as their main weapon.
There is no lot of equipment for naval guns.
Just armed with two rapid-fire guns of 152 mm caliber.
It is equipped with 2 HK-10 two-arm missile launchers.
It can be used to launch the JK-20 Divine Arm Bow short-range anti-aircraft missile, as well as the JK-32 Falcon medium-range short-range anti-aircraft missile.
There is also an HK-12 two-arm missile launcher.
For launching JK-120 medium and long-range anti-aircraft missiles.
Among them, the JK-20 and JK-32 air defense missiles have 60 rounds of ammunition.
The JK-120 anti-aircraft missile has 40 rounds of ammunition.
In addition to anti-aircraft missiles, two quadruple heavy anti-ship missile launchers were equipped.
Adopt a cross-design layout.
It is possible to launch 8 FJ-35B anti-ship missiles at one time.
This anti-ship missile was replaced with a more advanced pulse Doppler radar.
The maximum attack range has also been increased to 200 km.
Mid-course inertial guidance + terminal active radar guidance is used.
When used with carrier-based AWACS aircraft or shipborne AWACS helicopters, anti-ship offensives can be launched at a long distance.
In addition, it is equipped with an eight-mounted anti-submarine rocket launcher.
Two triple mounted anti-submarine guided torpedo launchers.
It has powerful anti-aircraft anti-submarine and anti-ship capabilities.
It can be said that he is an all-rounder in the fleet.
And the FJ-35B anti-ship missile it carries can also carry a 5,000-ton nuclear warhead.
When launching a nuclear attack, it can be used as a cruise missile.
After all, cruise missiles are not much different in essence from anti-ship missiles.
That's why the Navy upgraded it.
The commissioning of the Type 55 nuclear-powered cruiser is still a huge improvement in the combat effectiveness of the Navy's aircraft carrier battle group.
The Des Moines-class heavy cruisers also reached their deadline for commissioning.
As for the Cleveland-class light cruisers, although they can continue to serve.
But the Navy has asked Huaxia Shipbuilding Industry to design a new 10,000-ton conventionally powered cruiser.
It is a scaled-down version of the Type 55 nuclear-powered cruiser, codenamed Type 50.
The nuclear-powered cruiser is strong though.
But this stuff is too expensive.
If not for preparations for World War II.
Zhang Xueming could not let the navy build 7 ships at once.
This thing can build two or three conventionally powered cruisers of the same class.
The Navy designed this conventionally powered missile cruiser to be built in large quantities.
Thus replacing the Cleveland-class light patrol. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
Type 40 destroyers, Type 50 cruisers, Type 55 nuclear-powered cruisers plus Class 001 nuclear-powered aircraft carriers currently under construction.
There is also the Ghost-class attack nuclear submarine.
It will form a cross-era aircraft carrier battle group of the Chinese Navy.
If this aircraft carrier battle group can form initial combat effectiveness when China enters the war.
Then on the sea, the advantage of the Chinese navy will be crushing.
Even now, of course.
The superiority of the Huaxia Navy in the sea surface is still crushing.
Whether it is the home fleet of the English country, the combined fleet of the Yin Kingdom, or the Pacific and Atlantic fleets of Eagle Sauce.
None of them are opponents of any of the three major fleets of China.
Whether it is Zhang Xueming or the navy, they have absolute confidence in this.
After all, the Navy spent such a large price on modernization and upgrading, and the effect is still great.
The navy moves so much, the army naturally does not fall behind.
In particular, this year's military spending has increased, and the army has also given birth to some caution.
Among them, for the army, the most important combat equipment is tanks.
In the era of World War II, tanks were the real king of land.
The simple fire control system of the 54 medium tank has been rejected by the Army.
So this year, the Army, on its side, accelerated the development of second-generation main battle tanks.
The Northern Ordnance Industry Group did not disappoint the army either.
After five years of development, the second-generation main battle tank has finally been freshly baked.
Even its service alarmed Zhang Xueming.
Mainly because this stuff is really a bit amazing.
Compared with the T-54g, the performance improvement is more than just a star and a half.
It can be said that the new main battle tank 550 is crushing for the 54 medium tank in terms of performance.
This is true in terms of artillery, fire control, protection, power.
Let's start with the main motivation.
The Northern Ordnance Industry Group has developed a super power combination specifically for this new tank.
It is equipped with a four-stroke 12-cylinder water-cooled diesel engine.
Its power reached 850 hp.
It's just a step away from the 1,000 horsepower mark.
From here, you can also see how much progress has been made in the field of diesel engines.
These 850 horsepower were distributed to the 50-ton tank.
It also has 17 horses per ton.
This unit power is already very high.
It also gives the tank a top speed of 50 km/h.
And this diesel engine is also relatively fuel-efficient, and the reliability performance is also very high.
The maximum range can reach 500 km.
Compared to Sandeko's Tiger tank.
It's a big deal.
Not to mention the fact that it is armed with a 120 mm caliber smoothbore tank gun.
One cannon can even dry through the armor of the Mouse tank, let alone the King Tiger tank.
In terms of firepower, it is absolutely unprecedented.
No tank can stop it.
