At the same time as the 10,000-ton drive demonstration meeting was held, the Type 071 dock landing ship launched by Wu Dongzhong Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. caused heated discussions on the Internet, and this heated discussion continued to ferment, and it didn't take long for the Internet to expose the 40,000-ton amphibious assault ship program designed by Chinese military fans themselves.
The design plan of the first netizen is very red pants.
Shen Huan looked at the design drawings and data of this netizen, and couldn't help but smile.
This amphibious assault ship, called the Himalayan class, is 268 meters long, 46 meters wide, 8.8 meters draft, 38,000 tons of standard displacement, 15,000 tons of full load displacement, 120 meters long dock compartment, and can park four Type 726 air-cushion landing craft.
It adopts a single-storey hangar, two oversized lifts, and carries twelve straight-eight helicopters.
At a glance, you can see that this data is made by comparing it with the Da Huang Feng class of country M, and you must know that the Da Huang Feng class of the United States is a very famous warship in the US Navy, and it is even called a small aircraft carrier.
Although it is called a small aircraft carrier, it is actually larger than most aircraft carriers in the world.
Even the Frenchman's Charles de Gaulle was not as big as the Huang Feng class.
In addition, the last ship of this class, the Makin Island, uses a new composite gas turbine and electric propulsion power system, so it is the first attempt to use an integrated electric propulsion system in a U.S.
Navy combat ship.
Of course, this electric propulsion is not yet to the extent of integrated electric propulsion. opened another post, and Shen Huan saw another netizen's plan, which seems to be simpler and less troublesome, directly taking the three views of the 071 dock landing ship, and taking it over, PS turned it into a larger, longer and wider amphibious assault ship with a straight deck.
Of course, what is even more outrageous is that this netizen even put the J-7A fighter, the J-10 fighter, and the Wuzhi-10, which is still under secret development, on the deck.
However, the amphibious assault ship that seemed a little outrageous at this time became true later.
Shen Huan still remembers that in 2017, an issue of the Gengzhan Channel reported on a joint three-dimensional landing operation exercise in the East China Sea, in which footage of the Zhi-10 armed helicopter training on the Type 071 dock landing ship appeared.
If Wuzhi 10 can get on the Type 071 dock landing ship, he will naturally be able to get on the amphibious assault ship.
Of course, Shen Huan also knew that after the mass production of the Wuzhi Shi, he also took off and landed on landing ships many times, and it was also on those small and medium-sized landing ships, these traditional landing ships were only equipped with helicopter take-off and landing decks, and no hangars were set up.
Shen Huan also had to admire the imagination of Chinese military fans, which could be imagined.
Of course, what is even more unreliable is to put the J-10 fighter and the J-7A fighter on the amphibious assault ship of the PS.
Because these two types of fighters are not carrier-based aircraft, and they are not suitable for ships, there are military fans who want to let them on ships, which is enough to see how much Chinese military fans are looking forward to China's amphibious assault ships to appear, and even more expect China's amphibious assault ships to be able to take off and land fixed-wing fighters like the Huang Feng class in the United States!
Looking at these design plans, Shen Huan couldn't help but be moved by the enthusiasm of the military fans.
Of course, the helicopter gunship on the Chinese amphibious assault ship is the most realistic plan.
Because it is impossible for China to develop fixed-wing fighters with vertical take-off and landing like the United States, attack helicopters like the Wuzhi-10 can be put on board the ship to provide firepower projection for the landing force and destroy the enemy's beachhead firepower, such as tanks and armored vehicles, which are all armored combat firepower that the enemy will deploy on the beachhead.
Wu Zhishi was originally specialized in destroying the enemy's armored combat forces, so it was also very necessary to go on an amphibious assault ship.
And this netizen PS Chinese amphibious assault ship, in fact, later China Shipbuilding Industry Co., Ltd. launched an export model, based on the Type 071 dock landing ship, cut the superstructure, changed to a straight through deck, and added a small ship island.
Shen Huan's mind suddenly floated to the large dock helicopter landing ship for export.
It's a bit similar to this PS picture.
The large dock helicopter landing ship has a standard displacement of 22,000 tons and can carry four Ukrainian-made Bison heavy hovercraft at a time, and can carry eight helicopters with a full load displacement of more than 25,000 tons.
Of course, in terms of shipboard weapons, 730 close defense guns are also used, as well as 1130 close defense guns, a total of four of these two close defense systems, which is a grade higher than that of Type 071.
At that time, CSIC mainly marketed to Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia and Taiguo.
But then there was no follow-up.
And just as Shen Huan was browsing these military fan posts on the Internet, Lin Miaoyu, who was far away in Nanjin, was attending a secret meeting in a conference room in 701 at this time, which was the initial demonstration meeting of the new generation of direct-deck amphibious assault ships.
At this time, Lin Miaoyu has experienced the work of the chief designer of the Type 071 dock landing ship, and has grown up, and she is very confident in expressing her suggestions: "I think our amphibious assault ship should be smaller in size than the Huangfeng class of the United States, so that it is more suitable for us."
I think it is more reasonable to adopt the standard displacement of about 30,000 tons and the full discharge of about 35,000 tons.
In terms of hull design, a simple overall shape is adopted, the ship island and mast are both enclosed, and the chimney is integrated behind the rear mast structure to save space. ” "Tongjin should also use a part of the absorbing material to reduce the radar reflection area.
The main indicator can carry 16 helicopters, and the configuration can be twelve plus four, that is, twelve transport helicopters, plus four attack helicopters.
The elevator is located at the rear of the island and can lift 15 tons.
It is enough to set up six helicopter take-off and landing points on the flight deck, equipped with an optical take-off and landing assistance system. ” "In the choice of power system, I think we should choose the integrated electric propulsion mode, at present, the Naval University of Engineering has made a huge breakthrough in the development of the integrated electric propulsion system for ships, and I believe that the ship can be installed in the next few years, so that it is just in time for our amphibious assault ship to officially start designing!"
Lin Miaoyu believed that Shen Huan had told her that the future warships would definitely develop towards integrated electric propulsion.
The leaders of 701 can't help but look at this young female designer with admiration, especially Zhao Jinfu, who is also an old acquaintance of Lin Miaoyu's father, seeing Lin Miaoyu grow up over the years, he already has an idea, that is, let Lin Miaoyu pick a heavier burden, that is, let her serve as the deputy chief designer of the future amphibious assault ship!
Of course, it is impossible for Zhao Jinfu to say this idea now, because the amphibious assault ship is still in the early stage of demonstration, and it is still unknown whether it can be carried out in the future.
But once the project is officially established, Zhao Jinfu wants to recommend Lin Miaoyu to his superiors.
Neither Lin Miaoyu nor Shen Huan expected that Lin Miaoyu would really serve as the deputy chief engineer of the domestically produced 40,000-ton amphibious assault ship.
