Chapter 1278 Inspection of Type 002B Aircraft Carrier

Inspecting the Type 002B aircraft carrier, he had cordial exchanges with the officers and soldiers on board to understand their true evaluation of the Type 002B aircraft carrier.

The Type 002B aircraft carrier is assigned to the East China Sea Fleet, and its home port is Zhoushan Port.

It is expected that the third aircraft carrier formation will perform escort missions in the Gulf of Aden after the initial formation of combat effectiveness next year.

If necessary, friendly visits will be made to friendly countries around the world.

Although the Type 002B aircraft carrier is classified as a medium-sized aircraft carrier, it is reasonable to say that it is a large aircraft carrier.

Then, a J-11C fighter was quickly ejected under the action of the electromagnetic catapult system.

Zhang Zhaozhong praised the electromagnetic catapult.

In his opinion, using electromagnetic catapults instead of steam catapults is simply the right thing to do.

Electromagnetic catapults use less energy than steam catapults, and compared with steam catapults, the volume of electromagnetic catapults is much smaller, and the weight is only one-tenth of the steam catapults of the 002 aircraft carrier, and many pipelines are saved, which is of great significance for the safe operation of aircraft carriers and weight reduction and speed increase.

In terms of the number of operators, the electromagnetic catapult of the 002B aircraft carrier is 30% less than the steam catapult of the 002 aircraft carrier!

Moreover, the ejection force of the electromagnetic catapult can not only eject carrier-based fighters, but also eject drones.

Not only that, the electromagnetic catapult of the 002B aircraft carrier can also eject early warning aircraft, tankers, and electronic warfare aircraft.

This makes the combat effectiveness of the 002B aircraft carrier much stronger than that of the 002 aircraft carrier.

After all, the combat effectiveness of an aircraft carrier is determined by the carrier-based aircraft on the aircraft carrier.

The early warning aircraft is called the multiplier of the air force's combat power.

As for the tanker, it can refuel fighters in the air.

Not to mention the electronic warfare aircraft, which can directly conduct electronic interference on the opponent's fighter jets, ships, etc.

Zhang Zhaozhong is now looking forward to the Type 003 aircraft carrier, which is a large nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, which is larger and can carry more carrier-based aircraft.

Large aircraft carriers are what great powers should pursue!

Light aircraft carriers are suitable for small countries; medium aircraft carriers are suitable for medium-sized powers; large aircraft carriers are suitable for great powers and strong countries!

Even Russia has announced the restart of the construction of large aircraft carriers, and it is obviously unwilling to use medium aircraft carriers now.

The United States has been developing large aircraft carriers for a long time.

Thinking that the Type 003 aircraft carrier will be launched next year and can be delivered to the navy in 2010, Zhang Zhaozhong is very excited.

Aircraft carriers are absolutely the country's heavy weapons, the real great power artifacts, and the sharp sword in the hands of great powers. They can both defend against and attack enemies.

The only warships that can be compared with aircraft carriers are strategic nuclear submarines.

But in terms of deterring most countries, aircraft carriers are obviously more deterrent.

Because strategic nuclear submarines often carry intercontinental missiles, which are equipped with nuclear warheads.

This is more of a deterrent, deterring specific countries. Small and medium-sized countries do not have to worry about strategic nuclear submarines threatening themselves because they are not qualified.

But aircraft carriers are different. The deterrent is felt by all countries in the world.

"How long will it take for you to form combat effectiveness to fight pirates?" Liu Tao asked.

"It will take at least half a year to form combat effectiveness, but if we want to fight pirates, we can do it at any time!" Zhang Zhaozhong said decisively.

If it is a battle, then we must really form combat effectiveness. If it is to bully a country that does not pose a threat, it will only take half a year.

But if it is to fight pirates, it can be done at any time.

"Then you go to fight pirates and train your troops by the way!" Liu Tao said.

Fighting pirates as a training exercise is the luxury that China can afford now.

If it were 20 years ago, it would be unthinkable.

But it is different now. We can completely use aircraft carrier formations to fight pirates.

However, this kind of combat against pirates can only be used as actual combat training. After all, there is no war that can really allow aircraft carrier formations to fight.

Of course, this is not just a matter of Liu Tao's words, but also requires transfers.

Liu Tao ate with the officers and soldiers on the ship. The food was still very rich, with vegetables, meat and soup.

The food of the navy is considered the best among the three services.

Even the air force can't compare with the navy in terms of food.

It's not that there is a big gap between the food standards, but the navy can catch seafood under the standards set by the country, which is equivalent to an extra meal, so the food is naturally good.

The least rare thing for the navy is seafood.

Because this is too common for the navy.

The hardest working people in the navy were submarine soldiers at that time, because submarine soldiers performed tasks underwater for a long time. Under the water is not the sea. The light there is very weak, or even no light.

Under the sea, there are all kinds of strange animals, and many of them are not common in the world. It is pitch black, which often puts a lot of pressure on the soldiers.

Submarine soldiers often take a break after completing their missions, and they adapt to the new environment under the guidance of a psychological counselor.

As for surface ships, the working environment is much better.

Liu Tao left without staying on the Type 002B aircraft carrier for long.

When he arrived in Shanghai, it was already dark.

The night in Shanghai was bustling with traffic, and it seemed unusually prosperous.

Shanghai is currently the economic center of the mainland and the core city of the Yangtze River Delta. It is already very prosperous. If it had not been developed for too short a time, it would probably be comparable to New York in the United States.

Modu Port is the largest port in China and the world, and has surpassed Yangcheng Port.

Liu Tao came to Modu this time because of the listing of Modu Port.

Liu Tao originally did not plan to list Modu Port, or not so early, but Modu wanted to cash out the shares in his hands and had proposed it three times.

Liu Tao was also a little helpless. As a whole, the scale of Modu Port is so large that this listing is at the trillion level. Listing is not a trivial matter.

Moreover, Modu Port is now under construction, but there is no shortage of funds. The annual revenue and profit are enough to support the development of Modu Port.

There is indeed no need for listing and financing.

Modu Port is naturally a high-quality asset. No matter from which aspect, it is a very high-quality asset.

But Modu wants to cash out. After all, only when Modu Port is listed, the shares held by Modu are real and visible assets that can be traded.

Otherwise, now that Magic City Port has not distributed dividends, Magic City Port has not been able to get any money.

This is the disagreement.

Liu Tao came here this time to hold a shareholders' meeting and then decide whether Magic City Port should be listed, whether it should be listed as a whole or split, where to list, etc.

These subordinates cannot make the final decision, because their level and authority are not enough.

Liu Tao can understand the requirements of Magic City, but he does not agree with them.

After these years, the companies under Panshan Group have been listed one by one, and almost all the idle funds in the market have been absorbed. The entire A-share market has grown by more than double. In this case, it is not the best time for Magic City Port to be listed, and it may not really reflect the true value of Magic City Port.
