Zhang Yunfei was slightly excited. Looking at the cheering crowd around him, Zhang Yunfei clenched his fist and waved it vigorously in the air.
In addition to being excited and happy, the person in charge of the Nippur base and Oppenheimer, the general manager of the atomic bomb project, walked over hand in hand. The joy of success has not faded from their faces.
The person in charge of the Nibu Nur base stood at attention, saluted, and said respectfully: "Chief! Fortunately, we have lived up to our mission. The atomic bomb test was very successful."
Zhang Yunfei also had obvious joy on his face. He nodded and said loudly: "Everyone has worked hard. Success belongs to you and to the country. I will personally issue a commendation order to reward you for your achievements."
"Yes! Thank you, chief!"
Oppenheimer next to him also had a look of joy on his face, and even had a slight flush on his face. Oppenheimer's mood was all written on his face.
Seeing Oppenheimer, Zhang Yunfei took the initiative to stretch out his right hand.
Oppenheimer quickly stepped forward and held Zhang Yunfei's right hand tightly. Zhang Yunfei felt that Oppenheimer's hands were trembling slightly. At this moment, Zhang Yunfei could completely feel Oppenheimer's mood.
As a scientist, there is nothing more exciting and joyful than the moment when you achieve success, especially when your many years of research are successful.
Zhang Yunfei also held Oppenheimer's hands tightly. Zhang Yunfei said in fluent English: "Mr. Oppenheimer, congratulations! You succeeded!"
Oppenheimer opened his mouth several times, and finally spoke, "Dear Chairman Zhang. Thank you. The success of the atomic bomb is not due to me alone. It is the success of our entire team, and it is also a great success in the history of science. .¡±
Zhang Yunfei and Oppenheimer chatted for a few words and expressed gratitude to Oppenheimer. Zhang Yunfei just smiled. Zhang Yunfei once again encouraged Oppenheimer to continue in-depth research on the atomic bomb and achieve new successes as soon as possible. "
After the atomic bomb was successfully tested. Zhang Yunfei stayed in Nibu Nur for a few more hours. I inspected the entire base again. Compared with last time, the base has undergone significant changes and is more complete.
10 p.m. Zhang Yunfei was satisfied and left by helicopter.
*******
October 1st.
This day is the National Day of New China. But also on this day. The first aircraft carrier produced by China has been successfully completed and will be delivered to the Pacific Fleet of the Chinese Navy.
Currently, the Chinese Navy¡¯s Pacific Fleet is equipped with two aircraft carriers. That is, two aircraft carrier battle groups. For the vast Pacific Ocean, the number of two aircraft carriers is too small.
China's Indian Ocean Fleet is equipped with three aircraft carriers and has three aircraft carrier battle groups. In the Pacific, the Chinese Navy has built a large number of giant seaports, such as Vladivostok, Malacca, Okinawa, etc. The Chinese Navy's Pacific Fleet has many seaports, but aircraft carriers There are only two battle groups.
In recent years, the domestic shipbuilding industry has developed rapidly and has definitely reached the world's first-class level, and its scale is not small. The shipbuilding industry has shown a trend of professional development.
With the rapid development of the domestic shipbuilding industry, the navy is equipping more and more warships, equipped with a large number of various new warships, such as the "Zhao Yun-class" guided missile destroyers. The Chinese Navy has equipped more than 30 ships. In addition, new guided missile frigates , there are also many new types of submarines.
But these are far from enough. At present, what the Chinese Navy needs most is an aircraft carrier. The aircraft carrier is the core of the entire aircraft carrier battle group, and the other ships exist around the aircraft carrier.
The other ships in an aircraft carrier battle group exist to protect the aircraft carrier. Although aircraft can do everything, they still need support from ships. First, there must be destroyers for reconnaissance and anti-submarine, then there must be cruisers for air defense, space and missile defense, and submarines generally also have them. , used to alert underwater.
Depending on the mission requirements, there are sometimes landing ships and amphibious assault ships. Of course, the most important ones are transport ships and oil tankers carrying supplies and fuel. Sometimes there are tugboats to drag the paralyzed ship back for repairs.
Even a smaller aircraft carrier battle group must have at least four to six guided missile destroyers, one supply ship, five to eight frigates, two or three submarines, etc.
In addition to aircraft carriers, with the rapid development of the domestic shipbuilding industry in recent years, many destroyers, frigates, and submarines have been produced, not to mention cruisers, with a displacement of seven to eight thousand. tons of light cruisers are still in production.
This kind of light cruiser is the largest tonnage warship produced in China besides aircraft carriers. As for heavy cruisers and battleships, although they are also capable of producing them, Zhang Yunfei has never ordered their production.
The future is no longer an era of giant ships and cannons, but an era of aircraft carriers.In a world of battle groups, there is absolutely no need to produce heavy cruisers and battleships that consume a lot of resources.
Rather than producing these giant ships, it is better to produce a few more guided missile destroyers or frigates, or to concentrate resources on the production of aircraft carriers.
China has already begun to produce aircraft carriers domestically, and has invested a lot of money. However, as a giant surface warship, aircraft carriers consume huge manpower and material resources, and the construction period is not as long as that of missile frigates of one or two thousand tons, or two thousand tons. , three thousand tons of guided missile destroyers can be compared.
This large aircraft carrier manufactured at the Tianjin Shipyard took nearly three years to complete, starting in 1942 and ending in October now.
Tianjin Shipyard mainly produces two types of warships, one is aircraft carriers, and the other is transport ships. In the past few years, Tianjin Shipyard has produced dozens of large transport ships, but only one aircraft carrier has been completed.
The second aircraft carrier is only more than half completed. This aircraft carrier is the same model as the first aircraft carrier, but the construction started nearly a year later.
Today, the Tianjin Shipyard is also very busy.
Not only is Comrade Liu Dazhu, Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Navy, coming, Zhang Yunfei will also attend the completion and delivery ceremony of the "Beiping" aircraft carrier.
This aircraft carrier has been named the "Beiping" aircraft carrier. It is the first aircraft carrier developed and produced by China and is fully worthy of the title "Beiping".
Comrade Liu Dazhu, Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Navy, arrived at the Tianjin Shipyard early. Originally, the completion and delivery ceremony was scheduled for 11 o'clock in the morning, but Comrade Liu Dazhu came before eight o'clock. It can be seen how impatient Liu Dazhu was.
As the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Liu Dazhu naturally knows the importance of aircraft carriers. Moreover, this is the first aircraft carrier developed and produced by China. The performance of the aircraft carrier is much better than the five aircraft carriers currently equipped by the Chinese Navy.
At present, the aircraft carriers equipped with the Chinese Navy are all modified from Japanese aircraft carriers. Although the performance has been greatly improved after the modification, especially equipped with "Stinger" II missiles, advanced radars, and a large number of Mustang carriers After the aircraft carrier, the combat capabilities are no longer the same. However, compared with the "Beiping", these aircraft carriers are obviously still inferior.
"Beiping" aircraft carrier, referred to as "Beiping", hull number 001, is the first self-produced aircraft carrier equipped by the Chinese Navy.
"Beiping Ship" is a medium-sized conventionally powered aircraft carrier with a normal displacement of 45,000 tons. It is powered by 4 steam turbines and 4 steam boilers, and is propelled by 4 shafts, 4 propellers and twin rudders. The bow of the ship uses a ski-jump take-off deck, and there are 4 aircraft landing blocking ropes and an emergency blocking net in the middle of the ship. The bridge island building is located on the right side of the flight deck, with a deck/hangar elevator at the front and rear.
There are 8,090 standard carrier-based aircraft and 3,400 crew members. In addition to two 155mm main guns and 12 30mm anti-aircraft guns, the main weapons are also equipped with 8 "Stinger" II missile launchers and 6 Chinese missiles. The institute¡¯s latest surface-to-air missile.
Currently, in addition to the Stinger series missiles, there are several other series of missiles equipped by the Chinese ** team, including not only surface-to-surface missiles, air-to-air missiles, but also surface-to-air missiles.
Comrade Liu Dazhu, Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Navy, arrived at the Tianjin Shipyard early in the morning. First, he boarded the completed "Beiping Ship" with great interest. After a quick glance, he was melted. A lot of time, it's almost 11 o'clock now.
On the pier, everything has been prepared, and the ceremony can begin just waiting for Zhang Yunfei to arrive.
Liu Dazhu had just stepped off the "Beiping Ship" when he heard the staff around him whisper: "Chief! Chairman Zhang is here."
Sure enough, a loud voice sounded, "Stand at attention!!!"
On the dock, the officers and soldiers on the "Beiping Ship" close to the dock stood at attention and looked in the distance in the direction of Zhang Yunfei. Even the people in the Tianjin Shipyard stood up straight, unable to conceal their excitement, and stared into the distance. at.
In the distance, a few hundred meters away from the dock, a convoy of three or four cars was slowly approaching. This was Zhang Yunfei's convoy.
In the car Zhang Yunfei was riding in, he looked through the window at the colorful flags flying on the spacious pier. A large number of people stood upright and looked at him.
The motorcade stopped at the pier, and a guard soldier opened the car door for Zhang Yunfei. The moment Zhang Yunfei stepped out of the car, the surroundings were quiet, except for a loud and powerful shout.
"salute!!!"
brush! With a sound, the surrounding officers and soldiers saluted neatly, including the staff on the dock and the personnel of the Tianjin Shipyard. Everyone also saluted with a solemn military salute.
Zhang Yunfei returned the gift and said loudly: "ComradeHello everyone! Good job, comrades! "
"Hello, Chief!!!"
There were thunderous shouts all around.
Comrade Liu Dazhu, Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Navy, walked over quickly with a happy face, saluted a military salute alone, and said excitedly: "Old Chief! Hello!"
Zhang Yunfei took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, and Liu Dazhu quickly reached out to hold it. The two exchanged a few words. Liu Dazhu was Zhang Yunfei's old subordinate. If it were not for such a formal occasion, it would be far less formal and formal.
