According to Liu Yijiu's idea, all weapon systems will form a complete and inseparable three-dimensional defense network from the ground to the sky to outer space. That is China's future national defense system.

In outer space, a stationary space station is built on a suitable orbit, keeping the space station in the center of Chinese territory at any time, and then a few laser cannons and electromagnetic rail cannons are placed to defend against strategic missiles attacking China by the enemy, so as to truly defend the enemy from outside the country.

Similarly, you must have the ability to attack.

This is another direction.

Build the space station into a docking platform for aerospace fighter jets. Once there is a war, the fighter jets docked on the space station can directly change orbit from space, and quickly launch a strike from space at any location on the earth.

It's impossible to defend at all.

This is much lower than the cost of Dongfeng Express, which is a mission-biding delivery.

Of course, the initial construction requires too much investment, and it requires a huge technical system to support it. China itself is not the most powerful country in the world, and even the United States and the Soviet Union, which are the first echelon in the world, are very far away from it.

"What's more, the aircraft carrier construction plan we have started requires electromagnetic catapult technology. Although this is a different technology, the basic principles are the same." Liu Yijiu once again told everyone that the principle of not giving up the research on electromagnetic rail guns.

The top management in the base knows the 60,000-ton aircraft carrier plan, and the core technicians also know that the technology required this involves too many fields.

Various materials, manufacturing technologies, various supporting radar devices, and even communication and command systems are closely related to all scientific research systems in the country.

The construction of aircraft carriers must have a complete industrial system.

Britain and France cannot build larger and more advanced aircraft carriers, and many of the technologies must be obtained from the United States or the United Kingdom. They cannot supply them in their own country.

There are only three complete industrial systems in this world, the Soviet Union, the United States, and China.

The Soviet Union collapsed, the huge empire fell apart, and there was no perfect industrial system. Then, after entering the 21st century, the Russians had not purchased new large warships for decades, and the new destroyers of thousands of tons were unable to be built because Ukraine did not provide them with power systems.

Where can I still have the domineering spirit of the world's first empire?

In order to save money, the United States threw many technical fields to Britain, France and even Germany during the Cold War. Finally, after entering the 21st and 1930s, many European countries turned against each other and no longer followed the United States' strength. However, they kept cheating their elder brother and joined forces to form an alliance, which made the United States only suffer in some areas and eventually had to build their industrial system from scratch.

Because of its perfect industrial system, China has continued to improve and upgrade its domestic industrial system since the reform and opening up after the old man came to power. Therefore, after entering the 21st century, it has the capacity to build aircraft carriers. After the first aircraft carrier LN ship was launched, it immediately started construction of two at the same time, both for experiments.

The first one built itself, still took off with a leap-jump like the LN ship, and the second one was equipped with a steam catapult device. Then, it was seriously affected in electromagnetic catapult technology. Even nuclear-powered aircraft carriers waited until the 1930s when the electromagnetic railgun was used on a small scale on the warship.

Liu Yijiu didn't want to wait.

The principle of electromagnetic catapult technology is not much different from that of electromagnetic railgun technology.

Anyway, the object is ejected out using electromagnetic force.

Of course, the catapult technology used on aircraft carriers cannot apply electromagnetic force to carrier-based aircraft, otherwise serious problems will arise.

"Are you going to launch an electromagnetic catapult on the aircraft carrier? Didn't you just do a ski jump and takeoff at the beginning?" Wang Shunyi and others found Liu Yijiu and asked dissatisfiedly, "Xiao Jiuer, can we follow the plan? If all the projects are just like you, we keep changing them, what's the difference between this and before?"

"Yes, it's mainly because of our funding. You are not in charge of the company and don't know how expensive it is to get your food, rice, oil and salt!" Xu Zhifei, as the financial director of the entire Ninth Hospital, could wrinkle water on his face.

Liu Yijiu changed the project to whatever he thought of, or, at first, he knew that the management committee would not agree to his plan, so he lowered the requirements, and after it was completed, he would modify the plan.

This has been particularly obvious in recent years.

There were not many projects in the past, so the problem was not very big. Anyway, their funds were enough.

And now, it's not possible.

There are too many projects, most of which are gold-eating monsters, such as manned space engineering and current aircraft carrier engineering. Which one has to prepare a fund of 100 billion US dollars?

"Everyone, what's wrong? When did I say that the aircraft carrier is going to be launched into electromagnetic catapult?" Liu Yijiu asked in surprise.

"Didn't you say this when you were in a meeting with the electromagnetic rail gun project?" Wang Shunyi was also a little surprised.

This kid can't say he doesn't admit it, right?

Liu Yijiu grinned, "When they were studying electromagnetic weapons, they were hit by huge difficulties. I am encouraging them. Besides, our first aircraft carrier has 60,000 tons, but the entire system, including carrier-based aircraft, missiles for defense, and even missile systems for offensives, needs to be integrated. When the electromagnetic catapult is launched, can the conventional power supply be sufficient?"

Think about this, the same is true.

Conventional power generally adopts steam catapult technology, and even nuclear-powered aircraft carriers also use steam catapult.

"You don't want to replace conventional power with nuclear power at critical moments in the project, right?" Obviously, Director Liu's credibility in this regard has become a bit poor.

The few people who came to look for him were staring at him with disbelief.

"No!" Liu Yijiu felt a little crying, "Am I just so unreputable?"

Obviously, the old men nodded at the same time and the expressions on their faces that were almost clear were seriously suspected of Liu Yijiu.

He has many bad records.

"Also, we don't have the technology of a large conventional-powered steam engine, so it is very difficult to make a breakthrough. We have the technology of a nuclear power system in our hands, and even the transformation of the Iowa-class battleships uses nuclear power technology. How do you think we can trust you?" Wang Yueshan expressed their doubts.

The Ninth Academy started with a nuclear power plant and then built a submarine nuclear power system at an underground base. These power systems were used on the submarines under construction and large warships that were transformed.

The entire country does not have high-power steam turbines or gas turbines. Liu Yijiu chose conventional power on the 60,000-ton aircraft carrier. How can people not doubt his motivation?

Nuclear-powered aircraft carriers are very expensive, each ship is billions of dollars, and the maintenance costs will be even higher in the future.

The Ninth Academy Management Committee has now penetrated the entire aviation system and is unanimous in the manned space engineering and even the lunar exploration engineering.

Once this project is completed, it is likely to cause their capital chain to break.

The state will not invest money to the Ninth Hospital, and even if it invests money, the Ninth Hospital will not agree.

Using state financial appropriations will disrupt the Ninth Hospital project.

The right to independently establish a project and the right to operate independently will gradually be regulated in the process of national fiscal appropriations. After all, the country's money must be supervised, and each transaction must have a clear and reliable record unless, like other units, they do not care about the money, and are arbitrarily misappropriated or randomly added to some costs.

The Ninth Court never does such a thing.

"The technology of electromagnetic catapulting is indeed necessary to develop. However, it will not and cannot be installed on the first aircraft carrier. Everyone should be clear about the greatest role of our Ninth Academy. We will work in any direction that domestic technical projects are blank. We don't necessarily need this result, but we need to have an influence on the entire country's scientific and technological system..." Liu Yijiu said helplessly. "We build aircraft carriers and have funds on hand, so we naturally have to study them. Other naval units lack funds in their own right. How can they study them when they are useless?"

"If this is the case, there is no problem." Liu Yijiu's answer made everyone feel relieved.

"As for conventional power, by the same token, our ordinary large warships do not have a suitable power system at all. This is the problem we are currently facing in the 055 project. If the power system cannot be solved, no matter how advanced our warships are, they will be just a target!"

"This project will not change. The domestic foundation is still too poor, and we do not have any technical reserves. Otherwise, we would not find a way to return from the Soviet Union's aircraft carrier designer team, otherwise it would be very difficult for us to launch. Of course, after the first ship is completed, we will definitely consider nuclear power for the second ship. Therefore, the electromagnetic catapult technology is now being studied, and there is no problem."

Liu Yijiu carefully explained why the aircraft carrier project made such a choice.

This is a kind of sorrow.

It has more advanced technology, but it is impossible to use this advanced technology. Once it is used, it is not necessary to develop lower conventional power technology, and the entire navy will not have other tonnage warships available. Even large warships are expensive and there is no way to meet the needs of the navy.

At that time, the navy's preparations will be divided into two levels, one large and the other small...

As for large warships, the world knows that the larger the tonnage, the higher the cost-effectiveness ratio.
