    Although Qi Yiming did not master all the manufacturing technologies of later naval ships before the opening of the combat laboratory, for example, he could not build the benchmark flat-type high-power shipborne active phased array radar now.  It is said that he is not capable of building a main destroyer of the level of China Aegis.

    Not only cannot the Chinese Aegis be manufactured, but the Red Alert version of the Aegis cruiser that was originally set up in the game to be deployed before the combat laboratory was completed cannot be manufactured either.  It seems that at the Lv1 level, the Aegis system is limited, and you have to continue to upgrade to be able to obtain these combat units with more impressive combat power.

    There are many other technological categories that are also restricted, such as the Allied forces¡¯ light prism technology in the second generation and the Soviet army¡¯s Tesla coil. In the third generation, which has a stronger sense of science fiction, most of the technologies were not opened to Qi Yiming. Before  Qi Yiming felt very lucky to be able to get the sickle mecha.

    After careful discussion, the Navy decided to take it slow. Compared with the PLA Air Force of this era, which still has a bureaucratic atmosphere and often makes messy things, the Navy has a relatively more pragmatic spirit.  In fact, the development of the PLA navy witnessed by Qi Yiming in later generations can be called a miracle if you think about it carefully.

    It is undeniable that even thirty years later, the PLA Navy still has certain shortcomings, but its entire development model is still very commendable.  To sum up, the development of naval equipment can be summed up in four words: "small steps and fast running".  Because the Republic Navy has too many technical debts, and the maritime security goals that the country requires the Navy to ensure are too arduous, the Navy has been building two ships for a long time to see if there are any new technologies.  Then move to the next level of ship and test some new technologies.

    So military fans saw the navy¡¯s extremely complex various ship classes.  Taking the destroyer as an example, the 051 has several major modifications, including D, DT, Z, etc., and is undergoing modernization and modification while in service. The 109th ship is modified with Sidewinder missiles, and then installed with the YJ-83, and the 134th ship is equipped with a data link.  system.  051B and 052 are basically products of the same era, verifying a series of new technologies such as Haihongqi-7, Western avionics equipment, and large-tonnage new hull design.  Later, Maozi's modern class was introduced, and a batch of Russian-made equipment such as Shikili and top-plate three-coordinate radars began to be studied.  On the basis of the 052 and the Hyundai class, the Tujia digested and absorbed it and created the 052B. Later, someone thoughtlessly nicknamed this ship "Chinese Hyundai", and the two car brands were stacked together.

    After the completion of 052B, the Navy already had a preliminary understanding of regional air defense, and then began to develop Aegis ships.  The cautious navy rabbit is afraid of problems. One of the more aggressive ship types is the 052C, which is the first generation of China Aegis. However, this ship uses a lot of new technologies, such as the revolver cylinder vertical launch system and the YJ-62 anti-ship missile.  Ship missiles, four-sided active phased array radar, not including various soft and hard facilities inside.  So for insurance, the Navy Rabbit stuffed a complete set of Russian S-300F Rif air defense missiles, plus the Russian-made Tombstone single-sided rotating active phased array radar, into the 051B hull, and created  051C, the bastard who named it before is full of vitality again, calling this thing "Chinese-Russian Aegis".

    After four or five years of verification, the 052C finally felt that there were not many problems, so the PLA Navy Rabbit finally transferred its energy to their target ship, the 052D.  Using 64 universal vertical launch systems, commonly known as chocolate or wine bottle boxes, it can not only launch anti-aircraft missiles, but also anti-ship missiles, cruise missiles and other different types of ammunition, greatly enhancing its multi-mission capability.  The most outstanding thing is its four-sided flat-panel active phased array radar. Its power is significantly higher than that of the previous generation 052C, and its maintainability and reliability are also greatly improved.  In addition, the ship also uses a new generation of domestic gas turbines, which alleviates the heart disease problem that also plagues the navy.

    Looking back from here, starting from the construction of 052, it was the beginning of the Chinese Navy's efforts to make progress and run fast. The Navy Rabbit developed 6 ship classes in the destroyer class. It took more than 20 years to finally develop all the ships it owns.  The required target ships were developed.  This kind of amazing planning and foresight, without causing any major problems in terms of stability and safety, can be included in the textbooks on the development of navies of various countries and guide other countries to make independent progress.

    Qi Yiming returned to the present. The last two 165 and 166 ships of the old Luda 051 have not yet started construction. The PLA Navy is supporting the facade with these 13 Type 051 ships (there is also a 164 ship still on the slipway, and the 160 ship was built in 1978.  sunk in an accident).  Qi Yiming still has a lot of technical materials in his hands, enough to allow Navy Rabbit to develop to a relatively high level now.

    "However, it still started with the relatively conservative three-level main battle surface ships of propeller, escort and light escort, and the underwater fleet was supplemented by a sufficient number of diesel-electric submarines.  In addition, the landing ship also needs to be developed partially, but it may not be so urgent, and other warships can be put aside temporarily.

    Originally, the main battle surface ships he prepared for the navy only had 054A and 056 options, but Liu Huaqing brought the relevant information back to some senior navy officials.Look, everyone has said that the navy of a major power cannot do without destroyers. It must either build a larger destroyer or adjust the 054A to a destroyer.

    Qi Yiming never imagined that someone would be entangled with the issue of a name. In the eyes of current navy rabbits, the tonnage of 054A is a bit larger than that of 051, which is known as a destroyer. It is quite aggrieved to call it a frigate. It is better to directly upgrade it to a destroyer.  Qi Yiming firmly opposed this behavior of destroying the original order, and believed that it was just a matter of name. Japan's 27,000-ton amphibious assault ship can be called a frigate. There is no need to worry about tonnage and ship type.

    In order to satisfy the navy¡¯s hungry demand for destroyers, Qi Yiming took out the Allied destroyers in Red Alert 2.  The number of game ships that can be built in the Lv1 base is quite limited, and the biological control technology is limited, which means that dolphins and octopuses cannot be built; it carries an anti-aircraft gun, although the sea scorpion has considerable speed, although it has automatic homing and tracking artillery after the elite level  Ability, but the defensive area is too small. It is almost enough to be used as a small boat for base defense. It is too small to be used as a coast guard ship if the artillery is removed.  There are also two classes of nuclear submarines from the Soviet army, the Akula-class attack nuclear submarine (Red Alert 3) and the Typhoon-class strategic nuclear submarine (Red Alert 2).

    An additional explanation needs to be made here. In the real world, this group of NATO people eat people's food and do nothing to help others.  The Soviet strategic nuclear submarine Type 941 was codenamed Akula, which means shark. As a result, NATO slapped its head and named her Typhoon class.  As for the Soviet strategic nuclear submarine Type 971, codenamed Pike, NATO gave the name Akula to this type of ship.

    However, the two generations of Soviet submarines in the game are actually attack nuclear submarines, but when they come to Qi Yiming, they have restored their respective identities. Typhoon is a strategic nuclear submarine, and Akula is an attack nuclear submarine.  It's just that although Akula, as the combat unit of Red Alert 3, has been retained, she has lost her most powerful weapon, the supercavitating torpedo. Instead, she has equipped herself with 8 vertical launchers, which can launch cruise missiles.

    These two big guys have a displacement of 20,000 tons and a displacement of 10,000 tons. Although they are smaller than the prototype, they are not attractive to Qi Yiming, who has no idea of ??building such a large warship at this stage.  In Qi Yiming's mind, it would be a safer model to directly assign serial numbers of 096 and 095 to it and hand it over to the Navy in three to four years.  As for why it is not 093 and 094, this is because Bohai Heavy Industry has accelerated the development of these two types of submarines with the help of Qi Yiming's engineers.  Qi Yiming believed that it would be easier for them to accumulate experience and develop their abilities by letting them get to know this generation first, and then transfer to the next generation of Red Alert Submarines.

    Back to the topic, although the combat capability of the destroyer in Red Alert 2 is still inferior to that of the 052D, it was still considered a good main battle ship in the 1980s and even the 1990s.  The standard displacement is 6,000 tons, the full load displacement is 6,850 tons, the ship is 160 meters long, 16.2 meters wide, and has a draft of 7.5 meters. It adopts a high bulwark, Atlantic bow, hull external float, and stealth design. The mast also has a stealth design.  Closed.  Basically, this kind of ship shape only became popular after the 1990s.

    The main weapon she uses is a 155mm single-barreled naval gun. This is the same as in the game, and it is also a rare large-caliber artillery in the modern navy.  In terms of anti-ship weapons, it combines the main weapons of the PLA camp. This is also to facilitate logistics support. It is a total of 16 YJ-62 long-range anti-ship missiles in 4 units.  Originally, Qi Yiming wanted to choose the more common YJ-83, but considering that the same YJ-83 alone would have no anti-ship capabilities beyond 200 kilometers, he simply chose the long-range anti-ship missile used by the 052C.  Ship-to-ship missiles with a range of more than 400 kilometers.

    This new destroyer does not have a vertical launch system, but it is equipped with a double-arm missile launcher that can launch one missile every 6 seconds. Although it is not as good as the ability of vertical launchers to deal with saturation attacks, Qi Yiming itself did not give  This destroyer is positioned as an air defense destroyer.  The launcher has 48 rounds of ammunition, and together with the two on the launcher, it can launch a total of 50 anti-aircraft missiles.  Because the missile type could not be found in the PLA arsenal that met the needs, the original version was still retained.  This air defense missile has a range of up to 120 kilometers and is mainly semi-active radar guidance. It is actually a modification of the Standard-1 missile. Qi Yiming named it the Thorn-1 air defense missile.

    For short-range air defense, there are two Rabbit 730 close-range anti-aircraft guns, two 3200 six-unit anti-submarine rocket reflector tubes, four 18-unit multi-purpose rocket launch tubes, and two triple-unit 324mm torpedo launch tubes.

    Another main combat capability of the original Allied destroyer is the V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft, which performs anti-submarine missions.  But when it comes to Qi Yiming, the Osprey can't be counted on. Instead, the ship has two helicopter hangars, which can accommodate two Z-20H Sea Nighthawk anti-submarine helicopters (Tujia's Z-20 and Red Alert's  A combination version of the Nighthawk helicopter).  In addition, the ship is also equipped with a complete towed array sonar and powerful electronic support equipment. Its anti-submarine capabilities are even stronger than the 054A, a general-purpose frigate that is mainly positioned as anti-submarine.
