Submarines have important places in the Republic's navy. Not to mention, among the three naval commanders since the Kiyuki era, two of them came from the submarine force. More importantly, in the first half of the century, the Republic experienced wars, the submarines made far more military achievements than aircraft carriers, and even exceeded all surface warships.

In fact, focusing on the development of submarines is the only option for all "later navy".

As mentioned earlier, the naval development strategy of the Republic is very similar to that of Germany before World War II. Although before World War I, the German Navy, with the full support of the emperor, devoted its efforts to build a "High Sea Fleet" that could run side by side with the British Navy, has the second most powerful naval fleet in the world. However, in the cruel maritime war, there was only the first and no second. Germany's high investment in naval construction did not pay off. During the entire war, the "High Sea Fleet" did not even compare to the submarines. Most of the main battleships sank themselves at the end of the war.

After learning from the mistakes, in World War II, the German Navy resolutely regarded the submarine as the main battleship and achieved extremely brilliant results. If it were not for the full support of the United States by passing the "Lease Act", the German Navy's submarine would have been likely to allow Britain to surrender without ammunition and food before the United States joined the war. Although Germany did not win the final victory and the German Navy did not play a decisive role during the war, the "wolf pack tactics" have proved that the submarine is an irreplaceable and decisive main battleship on the marine battlefield.

Before the Republic, the powerful Red Empire also used submarines as the main weapon of the navy. At its peak, the former Soviet Union had more than half of the world's submarines and the largest nuclear submarine force in the world. It built "super giants" including the "Typhoon" and "Oscar" until the end of the century. The "Typhoon" class's displacement record was not broken.

Like Germany and the former Soviet Union, submarines played an immeasurable role in the growth of the Republic's navy.

The difference is that the Republic's Navy does not regard submarines as the only main combat weapon. The new address of this site has been changed to: 0博取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取取

Of course, if you want to replace the US Navy and become the number one navy that dominates the global ocean, the Republic's Navy can neither rely on submarines nor ignore submarines. In a sense, how to balance the underwater fleet and surface fleet will be a key issue that determines the development prospect of the Republic's navy. It can even be said that the failure of the German Navy to make decisive progress with the former Soviet Navy has a great relationship with the development imbalance. Especially the former Soviet Navy, if it can increase its importance to surface fleets at its peak, instead of blindly developing underwater forces, it will definitely achieve greater achievements and may even rewrite history.

It can be said that when the underwater fleet was held, the Republic's Navy fully absorbed the teachings of Germany and the former Soviet Navy.

Lin Xiaolei was able to serve as the commander of the navy and serve as the chief of staff as the commander of the navy because the Republic's Navy wanted to change its development model. It can be said that since the early days of the Blade, the Republic's Navy has placed the importance of submarines at a secondary position and began to concentrate on developing surface warships, especially large warships. It is precisely with such a foundation that in the early days, the Republic's Navy can build a large number of large warships including aircraft carriers, cruisers and destroyers, which will comprehensively improve the naval strength.

The problem is that no one can deny that small submarines are still the strength of the Republic's Navy.

You should know that even after the Shu Year, that is, after the third military reform began, the Republic's Navy did not reduce the funds of the submarine force, nor did it even reduce the speed of the submarine development. Although from the reason, this is because with the spread of forced electromagnetic interference systems, submarines have an irreplaceable or even unique role in future naval wars. Not to mention the Republic's Navy, the US Navy, the Russian Navy, and the European Navy have tried every means to increase their investment in submarines. However, from the perspective of impact, this development strategy greatly consolidates the foundation of the submarine force and makes submarines a unique combat force in the Republic's Navy.

In fact, as early as the early Blade era, that is, when preparing for the Indian War, Lin Xiaolei, who was still the chief of staff at the time, had an in-depth discussion with Ying Changhui, who came from the submarine force. Then Ying Changhui asked Hua Jianfeng, who had returned to the Navy Command, to conduct a comprehensive investigation on the shipbuilding industry in the Republic, especially when the submarine-related shipbuilding industry was involved. Because it involved confidentiality issues, Li Cunxun arranged personnel from the Military Intelligence Bureau to participate in the investigation.

The purpose of this investigation is simple, which is how fast the Republic's Navy needs to purchase submarines while maintaining basic construction capabilities.

It can be said that this is a problem that a big country will encounter.

Compared with water ships, submarines have two obvious characteristics: one is that they have large investment in the early stage, and the other is that they have a long development cycle.

Mu Yong suspected that submarines are definitely the "high-tech combat platform" in the navy, and it can even be said that submarines are armed by various high-tech technologies. In this way, basic research related to submarines is time-consuming and laborious. For example, in terms of quietness that is crucial to submarines, in order to reduce noise, sound-silence tiles have become popular since the 2nd Jitian era, and soon became the standard equipment for submarines. Although with the improvement of sonar technology, the role of sound-silence tiles in passive sound-silence tiles has significantly decreased, in terms of active sound-silence, that is, when the Bawang moves sonar, sound-silence tiles still have extraordinary important thoughts. Importantly, from the 1900s, that is, the noise-silence tiles drop to the ocean background noise.

After the sound level, the detection ability of passive sonar in anti-submarine combat was greatly reduced, and in many cases it was even useless. Active sonar became the only detection equipment for submarines. In this way, sound silence tiles became more important. It can be said that the quality of a sound tiles can not only determine the success or failure of a submarine, but also a direct test of a country's industrial and technological strength. In the era, in order to develop a new sound tiles, the Republic's Navy invested tens of billions of scientific research funds in the past years and carried out several projects, and did not make major progress until the end of the era. In the words of Hua Jianfeng, if the scientific research funds were spread out, this sound tiles named Jiu were more expensive than gold!

This is the case with the sound-silenced tile, let alone the advanced equipment inside the submarine.

That's why the development cycle of submarines is particularly long.

It can be said that any kind of submarine with a capacity of more than 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Compared with the long development cycle, the number of submarines is very disproportionate to the service time.

After World War II, the most built submarines were the US Navy's "Luoshan-class" attack submarines, with a total of them. Although the number is astonishing, it is nothing compared to some surface warships, such as the Perry-class frigates and the Knox frigates. More importantly, the average service life of the "Luoshan-guan" class is less than a blade year, while the average service life of most surface warships in the US Navy is more than a year of ugly years, and some are even half a century.

In this way, the cost-effectiveness ratio of the submarine is indeed very bad.

In other words, if you spend basic research specifically for submarines and the efficiency ratio calculated on each submarine, the initial investment of submarines exceeds all ships and is the most "expensive" warship in the navy. In fact, if you compare the cost per unit tonnage, the aircraft carrier is between the old ten thousand and the old ten thousand, the cruiser is about ten thousand, and the destroyer is about 70,000 yuan. The submarine is as high as 10,000 yuan.

Relatively speaking, the biggest consequence of these two problems is not the construction costs and R&D cycle, but the test of a country's ship industrial system.

Just as a team of capable officers and soldiers is more important than a powerful submarine, an excellent design team is definitely much more important than a strong shipyard.

It can be said that in order to save the submarine design team, the Republic and the United States had to spend a high price to buy submarines.

Take the "Killer Whale" class attack submarine of the Republic Navy for example. Its advanced performance is enough to ensure that it remains ahead of its strength for years or even longer. However, the Republic Navy only built less than 3 batches of blade ships, and at the beginning of the first batch of construction, it began to design the next generation of attack submarines, so that thousands of engineers and large numbers of technical workers will not be unemployed. In this way, the submarine replacement speed is much higher than other warships, and each replacement will have a strength improvement. In fact, from two years later, the development of submarines has shown a relatively special rule, that is, design ideas and important technologies alternately promote the development of submarines. For example, the "Dolphin" class in front of the "Killer Whale" class gained strong combat capabilities due to the major changes in the power system, while the "Killer Whale". Class improves combat effectiveness through more advanced design ideas. This is also a helpless move, after all, the speed of technological progress is very

Limited, we can only find ways beyond technology. What is important is that this method is not only the Republican Navy, but also the US Navy. As a result, the Republican Navy and the US Navy are always chasing each other in the submarine field. Both sides do not want to be surpassed by each other, so they cannot slow down their development speed. What's more, the most advanced submarines in the two countries are "not sold". Even if they are treated as rags, they will not be sold to other countries. Even if they are the most closely related allies, they can only design a submarine for export based on the same technology. In this way, the service life of the submarine is naturally very short. Take the Republican Navy for example. Since it entered stable development during the Japanese War, by the end of the Indian War, many submarines had to retire from the Navy because of the more advanced submarines. The new address of this site has been changed to: 0-teeth 0-sisted Gong Shan, please read it!

Although this competition model, which mainly wastes resources, was curbed in the era, neither the Republic nor the United States slowed down the development and construction of submarines, but instead expanded the scale of submarine forces, that is, retained more submarines to extend the service time of submarine service.

Like water real ships, the new generation of attack submarines of the Republic's Navy was also launched in Likou Year.

Because the third phase of the London Treaty reduction will start from previous years, all strategic weapons carrier platforms and strategic weapons, including strategic nuclear submarines and submarine-launched strategic ballistic missiles, will be destroyed. The Republic's Navy has designed and served for years. Moreover, the strategic submarines are active in the Yellow Sea, East China Sea and South China Sea, and are within the protection scope of the Republic's Navy, so the Republic's Navy has not developed new strategic submarines. More importantly, as early as the beginning of the century, submarines began to adopt modular design concepts. As long as it is necessary,

The Republic's Navy can install ballistic factory storage and launch modules on any attack submarine. Turn attack submarines into strategic submarines. The thugs Zunsan Army adopted a similar development method earlier, that is, after the "Ohio" class strategic submarine, they no longer designed strategic submarines separately. Instead, they use attack submarines as the basis, and obtain strategic submarines by installing ballistic missile storage and launch modules. They can even flexibly adjust the proportion of strategic submarines and attack submarines according to the strategic threat level and national strategic needs to maximize the combat potential of the submarine force.

Unlike surface ships, submarines are much more confidential.

It was not until the mid-term, that is, when the attack submarine project code-named Zhuo42 had started and the design work was about to be completed, and the Ministry of Defense officially submitted a budget application for the procurement of new submarines to the General Assembly, the outside world knew that the Republic was about to build a brand new attack submarine.

What is more interesting is that in order to keep it confidential, the Ministry of Defense placed the construction costs of submarines in the fourth fiscal year in the first budget application submitted by the Ministry of Defense in the "secret budget". According to relevant regulations, the purpose of the "secret budget" does not need to be explained in detail at the general congress. It only needs to make a private report to several committees that manage secret budgets, such as the Military Commission and the Financial and Economic Commission, so that confidentiality can be achieved. As a result, several newly elected representatives believed that the "secret budget is more than three times that of last year, and it has exceeded the normal demand, and asked the Ministry of Defense to disclose the detailed expenditure of the "secret budget". In desperation, in the second budget application, the submarine expenditure was placed in the normal equipment procurement project. It is precisely this that the Republic's Navy's procurement of new submarines was exposed. That is to say, it is the Republic's own budget inspection system that exposed the submarine projects.

Although this reflects the "low-energy" of the fourth-class intelligence agency from one side. After the news was announced, the fourth director resigned on the grounds of health, it also reflects how important the confidentiality of the submarine project is. It can even be said that if the news is not disclosed, it may take until the first submarine is officially started to be built before the US intelligence agency knows that the Republic's Navy is about to obtain a brand new submarine.

As for how advanced the attack submarine, which was later named "Zhoushan" class, was named after the main naval base of the Republic, was, even Yuan Chenhao didn't know very well. He only knew that the construction funds obtained by the "Zhoushan" in Chi's seven years were not Daoyi approved by the All Congress, but the thug Hongyi. Including the investments of the "Zhoushan" and Xiangnian, the submarine had already spent about Wang Yiyuan. Even if the "Zhoushan" did not require more investment before it was completed, the unit price was the previous attack submarine; the unit tonnage cost was close to 10,000 yuan.

Although like other warships, as the first ship of this class, the cost of the "Zhoushan" must contain a lot of development and design costs, according to the construction of the Republic Navy, the actual cost of the "Zhougong Murderer" is as high as 100 million yuan. That is to say, half of the development costs are also as high as 300 million yuan, and the unit tonnage is as high as 100 million yuan, which is 7 times that of the previous class attack submarine. You should know that according to normal standards, the average cost of the new class submarine is about the old times of the previous class, and the higher is almost related to the advanced equipment used.

In fact, the "Zhoushan" class attack submarine was the one that Hua Jianfeng paid the most attention to after becoming the commander of the Shanghai Army.

Item.

You should know that Hua Jianfeng is the naval commander from the submarine force. Although his experience after leaving the submarine force made Hua Jianfeng's "submarine force" taste much weaker, otherwise he would not have been respected by Lin Xiaolei. However, compared with Lin Xiaolei, Hua Jianfeng is a more rational general, with a more leader spirit, and can better grasp the key to military construction. It can be said that Hua Jianfeng attaches great importance to the development and construction of the "Zhuzhang." class, which is very funny with the tactical and ideological changes of the Republic Navy. You should know that before finding suitable means of sea control, submarines are definitely the most effective and the most powerful sea control force.

In a sense, it is precisely because the submarine is the only main battleship that can pose a fatal threat to surface ships under any circumstances that both the Republic Navy and the United States Navy were all after the Indian War. That is, after the forced electromagnetic interference system became the main defense method, it accelerated the development of submarines and even reduced the status of surface fleets to promote submarine construction.

Because of the good confidentiality work, after the four revealed Jiang Xi, the "Zhoushan-class attack submarines not only became a major concern of the US Navy, but also made the US authorities regard it as "the number one threat". By the beginning of the year, at least two uranium spy networks were cracked by the Military Intelligence Bureau and the National Security Bureau while spying on the intelligence of the "Zhoushan". Among the dozens of spies arrested, at least four were already lurking for more than one year. They were real "high-level spies". From these two spy cases, the famous "spy purge storm" occurred in recent years. The Republic and the US intelligence agencies destroyed each other's intelligence networks, and even threatened the other party by assassinating the other party's "public" intelligence personnel. At the beginning of the year, the two sides exchanged nearly 100 spies at one time. The storm was over.

Of course, whether such a big sacrifice is worth it or not depends on the war's violence.
