Text Chapter 1,124 Aircraft Carrier Park

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Only strong countries can build aircraft carriers!  Now, this country no longer exists, and the rest has completely declined. Even Russia, which has inherited the main mantle of the Soviet Union, is no longer possible.

    Makarov looks at the Varyag, which is 80% completed, every day, knowing that this wrangling will continue.

    Both sides are testing each other's bottom line. For Russia, they definitely want this aircraft carrier, but they want to buy it at the lowest price. For Ukraine, they can only sell this aircraft carrier to  Russia, but wants more money, so the wrangling between the two sides will continue.

    The other aircraft carrier, the Ulyanovsk aircraft carrier, which has already started 40% construction, has become an unwanted child. The Russian Navy actually does not even have 2% of the subsequent construction of the Varyag.  Ten countries do not have sufficient funds, and it is even less possible to come up with enough funds to complete 60% of the subsequent construction costs of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.

    At this time, the main body of the entire aircraft carrier has been closed, the nuclear reactor has been installed on the ship, and it will be able to enter the outfitting stage in almost a few more months of construction.

    Therefore, the negotiation between the two parties for this aircraft carrier is very simple. It is left to the shipyard to decide. The most likely thing is to dismantle it on the slipway.

    In later generations, the fate of this aircraft carrier was also the same. The final swan song of the Red Imperial Navy was sold for only 15 million US dollars.

    Of course, that price has a lot to do with the fact that when the Soviet Union was transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy, the Soviet people were still very simple and were deceived by the capitalists. However, it was also under Ukraine's plan.  When there is no ability to complete the construction, is there any other way besides dismantling?

    But, it¡¯s different now!

    "Mr. Makarov, we meet again." Adelina said with a faint smile on her face. Another senior Iraqi official in charge of procurement, Amir, also came here.

    Makarov turned around, saw the two of them, and said, "Yes, please sit down, both of you."

    Agelina is wearing a fox fur coat, which is the latest style at the Paris Fashion Show. Now that the Soviet Union has finally disintegrated, she no longer has to fear the surveillance of the KGB, and she no longer has anything to do with the KGB.  The files have all been secretly eliminated.

    So, when she took action, she finally no longer had to be secretive. For example, this time, she came to discuss business seriously.

    "We plan to invest US$500 million to purchase the Ulyanovsk aircraft carrier that has stopped construction on the slipway. Has the superior Ukrainian department agreed?" Adelina asked.

    For Ukraine, Iraq is definitely their good partner now. The cooperation between them has been carried out for several years, and the two sides have hit it off with the Black Sea Shipyard.

    However, regarding the fate of this aircraft carrier, although Russia cannot afford to build it and will give it up, the Iraqis will still have to put a lot of effort into buying it back. It is not appropriate to buy it directly in the name of the aircraft carrier.

    So, Agelina came up with a way, that is, to buy it in the name of a theme amusement park. After the warship arrives in Iraq, it will be converted into a theme park!  Carry out patriotic education.

    Of course, Iraq will not do that. Now that the main body of the ship has been built, those large shipbuilding equipment are no longer needed. Therefore, the aircraft carrier will be driven back and the subsequent outfitting will be completed at the Iraqi shipyard.  Eventually joining the Iraqi Navy, which was an established strategy in Iraq.

    Although the construction of the Varyag is almost completed, Ukraine and Russia, who are at odds with each other, may not let Iraq buy it. Only the aircraft carrier that is less than half-finished can be purchased if the father does not love the mother.  Possibility of getting it.

    In order to complete this plan, Agelina bribed a large number of officials.

    "The higher authorities have agreed, but the interior must be blasted and the nuclear reactor dismantled to become an empty shell before it can be released," Makarov said.

    Since it is a theme park, the things inside are naturally useless.

    "We completely agree." Agelina said: "We have already designed the drawings required for demolition through the Neva Design Bureau."

    It does need to be dismantled. For example, the Granite missile in front must be dismantled. Iraq does not need that kind of thing. What Iraq needs is to carry more carrier-based aircraft.

    This aircraft carrier is the same as the one currently in service in Iraq. It also adopts an oblique catapult take-off and the bow jumps over the deck. Now, it is possible to cut the deck and carry out internal modifications before getting off the slipway. If it gets off the slipway, it can be carried out again.  Renovation, the amount of work will increase exponentially.

      Externally, it is claimed to be internal damage, but in fact, it is an internal transformation. Like the Iraqi aircraft carrier, after the front hangar is set up, it can accommodate at least ten more fighter jets. However, the upper bridge and other structures,  It is no longer convenient to move. However, since this aircraft carrier has a larger displacement, the actual use efficiency of the two aircraft carriers is actually about the same.

    As for the nuclear reactor, it absolutely cannot be dismantled. Since it has been designed and built, if it is converted to conventional power, let alone the performance degradation, the disposal of the dismantled nuclear reactor will also be a hassle.

    So, half truth and half falsehood, in recent years, more and more people have done this kind of thing.

    As for the various equipment needed for the subsequent outfitting of the aircraft carrier, Iraq has cast a wide net. Using the information provided by the Neva Design Bureau, they have visited many factories in the former Soviet Union to collect the required equipment.  A lot of equipment was left unattended in the factory, so Iraq was able to buy it at a very good price.

    Some of these equipment are already on the road and have been transported to Iraq. They will undergo the final outfitting process at the Iraqi shipyard.

    This is another rapid development process of the Iraqi shipbuilding industry. The experience they learned through the outfitting process will give them a deep understanding of the aircraft carrier construction method and later management.  Maybe the next aircraft carrier will be produced in Iraq itself.

    At the same time, during the outfitting process, Iraq will also use self-developed equipment to partially replace Soviet equipment, such as satellite navigation systems.

    The core figure here is Makarov. Makarov is an indispensable figure in the later outfitting process of the aircraft carrier. Therefore, another purpose of Agelina's visit this time is to persuade Makarov to come.  Go to Iraq and serve as the honorary director of their shipyard, fully responsible for the later outfitting of this aircraft carrier!

    "Mr. Makarov." Agelina said: "This time we were able to cooperate successfully, and you played a major role in it. We in Iraq have deposited five million US dollars into your Swiss bank account, but  "We know that you can help us in Iraq not just for money."

    After Agelina finished speaking, she looked at Makarov with her eyes. From his eyes, Agelina saw a kind of lust.  Of course, this kind of desire is not the ordinary desire to get more money, but a desire for a career.

    "Two days ago, Russia boarded the Varyag. They are not able to build this aircraft carrier, which is 80% complete. You said that only the most powerful country can build it.  Completed." Agelina said: "But now, Ukraine is not, nor is Russia. Now the CIS countries are facing the most serious problems. However, if we want to complete the follow-up projects, we in Iraq have enough  Capable. We just lack a person like you who can oversee the overall situation. For you, building an aircraft carrier is your life's work. If under your supervision, this aircraft carrier can finally complete its entire construction,  This is also the most glorious moment in your lifetime. Under your hands, you built a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier! Let it finally break out of the ground and sail on the world's oceans."

    Build this aircraft carrier yourself and let it sail in all the oceans of the world!  This is Makarov's lifelong wish. Now, the conditions proposed by Iraq make him very excited, because if he wants to realize his dream, he can only go to the emerging Middle East.

    "Mr. Makarov, our Iraqi shipyard needs experienced shipwrights like you. If you come to our country in Iraq, you will receive the highest level of treatment. There is no room for you to display your ambitions in the current Ukrainian Black Sea Shipyard."  ." Another Amir also said.

    Makarov was moved in his thoughts and finally nodded: "Okay, I am willing to go."

    Hearing this, the two of them were overjoyed.

    "Mr. Makarov, we have another thing to do this time. At the North Plant of the Black Sea Shipyard, there are still several warships that are about to be completed. These warships are currently in a state of shutdown. We in Iraq also want to  Buying these warships will allow Ukraine to obtain a large amount of funds for economic development, and at the same time, it will also give these warships a good outlet, isn't it the best of both worlds?" Amir said.

    The North Plant of the Black Sea Shipyard, also known as the Liuyi Shipyard, is the only place where the Soviet Union's Glory-class cruisers are built.  Iraq has tried several times to tackle the problem, but has not been able to win it. Now, the fourth Glorious-class cruiser there, the Komsomolets, is about to complete all the construction work. It has reached 96%!

    ??And Iraq¡¯s current order of Glorious-class cruisers is obviously much cheaper than the original price. At that time, the powerful Soviet Empire was selling thingsAt that time, the asking price would be quite high, but now, they are just collecting junk. Even if they are given half of the cost of the ship, Ukraine will be very happy. After all, the Russian Navy can only pay the balance and then clamor for these warships.  Originally built for the Russian Navy.  (To be continued.
