The ship has no way to speed up, only in the current research route, gradually climbing forward, but for such a type of thing, the Navy has a certain experience, nothing but to increase investment.

For example, the traditional verification method is to wait until there is a problem, and then according to the problem to deal with, depending on the Navy, it will choose 100 or even 1000 experimental objects, targeted testing, find some data indicators, and summarize the rules from the data.

For the sake of this law, in a short period of time, the number formed may be 100 times that of the ordinary test, which will certainly produce results quickly, but the only weakness of such a method is the huge cost.

At present, the size of the economy has been very large, because Zhao Xin's vision, coupled with the economic system that has been formed, the labor efficiency of the Navy is very high, and under the premise of ensuring enough workers, countless wealth can be created every year, which is not important.

Zhao Xin is very hopeful that it will be faster to build the ship, and it does not matter if it pays a little price for this, because Zhao Xin has a plot of the ship's giant gun.

Every military enthusiast will like the ship's giant guns, battleships, representing the unlimited dreams of military fans, even in the 21st century, but also more than 100 years ago, the battleship of the war period of the war, whether it is Britain, or Germany, and the unprecedented arms race, is the focus of the dispute between military fans.

On the contrary, it was more exciting during World War II, and the combat effectiveness was more intense in the confrontation of aircraft carriers, few people mentioned that although, military fans also knew that the aircraft carrier replaced the battleship, which was the general trend of historical development, and it can be seen that it was easily sunk by dozens of aircraft, but for the aircraft carrier, military fans really do not love it.

The battleship, if it starts with the dreadnought ship, means that the caliber of the gun is at least 11 inches or more, the displacement is more than 20,000 tons, and the maximum speed is at least 18 knots.

It was a monster of steel, from the moment it appeared, at sea, in addition to the battleships that could handle the battleships, other ships, which were difficult to deal with.

Although in the history of the war, there are examples of submarines sinking battleships, but those are fearless, and even most of them are still injured, in the real head-to-head confrontation, the decent sinking, or to the aircraft carrier period, from the beginning of the 20th century, until the middle of the 20th century, battleships are the main force of the Navy, even in the early and middle of World War II, the battleship is also the main ship.

At present, the Navy has already had a part of the indicators of the battleship, the artillery and armor is the key, 11-inch artillery, that is, 280 mm, the caliber of this gun, as early as two years ago, has been set to the Navy to produce, power, I do not know whether it can be compared with the battleship gun of the First World War, but it is already good.

After that, step by step, now, basically reached 400 mm, compared with 16 inches of 406 mm, just a little worse, the same, a large number of use of the second half of the 20th century artillery technology, such as hands, self-tightening, cannons, and internal gold-plated methods, even in the same level of steel above, the Navy has been much stronger than the artillery of the First World War, not to mention, this level is higher.

Crossers, cattle, plus the card system, the combined power of the three, so that the Navy is very terrible, in the 11th century, it has the steel level of the end of the 20th century, making artillery is relatively easy, making armor, it is very easy.

Surface doped carbon, this is the starting point of strengthening armor, but such armor, how compared with the surface coating, or even to a certain extent above, a certain degree of composite armor, while maintaining hardness, but also has the ability to absorb energy, which from a certain extent above, strengthen the strength of the armor.

Armor and artillery, this attack and guard, can be said to be the spear and shield of the battleship, this in the various subsystems of the battleship, occupies a very important part, but they are not all, even, there are many indicators of the impact of the warships.

For example, the layout of the entire battleship, the battleship, is combat-ready, he needs all-weather combat capability, then, the stability under high sea conditions, it is extremely important, this is the softness of the Navy, the Navy even ships, some of the power is not caught, let alone more terrible, more powerful warships.

Similarly, the power system is also a huge problem, the battleship, need to concentrate in a limited space, a sufficient power, this power is the key to the battleship, only this power, can push more than 20,000 tons of warships, at a speed of more than 18 knots.

It was the most terrible warship of true human creation, until the development of aircraft and aircraft carriers to replace battleships.

Power is very critical, whether it is a steam turbine or a three-胀letic reciprocating steam engine, these are not the parts that the Navy can currently involve, but the artillery has been made.

The 400 mm caliber gun, this is a behemoth, this is not all, because a simple gun, his weight is the largest, that is, so the point, but in fact, the Navy on the basis of this gun, got out of the fort.

Yes, the battleship, that is, the turret of the battleship of the full-heavy gun, not only has a variety of automated loading equipment, but also has a strong protection capability.

Of course, this is incomparable to the main armor, but the thick armor is also enough to protect the Navy in the war.

The medium weight of the simple 400 mm gun is as high as 130 tons, and if it is a double-coated fort, his weight exceeds 1000 tons.

Such things, placed on more than 20,000 tons of warships, is considered normal, cleavage in small, such as 5000 tons, 10,000 tons, that is not possible.

Small ships pull cannons, in the early stages of the development of the entire battleship, the comparison is obvious, for example, Japan in order to deal with the battleship prepared by the Beiyang Marine Division, that is to use a small tonnage ship, pull up the big gun, this is a kind of counter-naval development, to the later stage, basically to be harmonious and unified, the mainstream naval countries, rarely appear that kind of seven-turret artifact ships, but also only in less developed countries will appear.

Determine the naval construction capacity, heavy artillery has long been made out, the fort, although some difficulties, but after Zhao Xin drew the drawings, also made out, and even some more fresh things, but also in Zhao Xin's mention point, did advance research and testing.

Zhao Xin is a military enthusiast, but also eager for the era of ship cannons, some basic things of battleships, such as, the distribution of the burden, for example, the unified caliber, the full heavy gun capital ship, these are the basic concepts, he knows, unfortunately, on the ship above, it is limited.

This is not a one-time success, for the desire of the battleship to appear Zhao letter, want to be able to reduce the process as much as possible, as for the time being spent in this process, it does not matter, this is the inevitable investment in the development period.

Because of the existence of Zhao Xin, there is Zhao letter such a prophet, in terms of research, the cost is very small, most of the Zhao letter to guide the right direction, for example, the ship, in history, the ship actually experienced a lot, even auxiliary power has a lot of choices, in the end, history proved that the steam engine is the most suitable to install.

This is also the basis of the Navy so easy to climb the science and technology line, why the basic technology, investment so large, non-state, or some huge companies can have the ability to promote, is because the basic technology needs to verify too much, in countless failures, to be lucky to get a way forward.

Unfortunately, all this, in Zhao Xin here, Zhao Xin can easily see the road of future development, get the best, but also the simplest.

Zhao Xin also knows that this will lose some things, to know that the huge basic research is wrong, to a certain extent, it will produce huge waste, but these failed processes, failed research, may be a breakthrough in one aspect, it will become primitive accumulation, which has been verified countless times in the future.

If, for the sake of these failed experiences, according to the future generations, comprehensive research, that is, Zhao Xin did not want to see, Zhao Xin's vision, can support a long time, if, can be in the 30 or 40 years, basically, catch up with the development of future generations, Zhao Xin in order to make the development of science and technology stable, or will be comprehensive development, but before this, there is no such meaning.

On the road to success, speed is the most important, and quality is not considered until after a certain height.

For the ship gun, the best is to put on the ship, 400 mm main gun, which is no longer the sail warship can withstand, even if it is large, it is impossible, even to some extent, the sail warship, can accommodate the maximum caliber, is about 100 mm.

You know, in the era of Spanish sailing, a first-class battleship can accommodate hundreds of caliber artillery, but unfortunately those guns are old-fashioned artillery, such guns, their power, not big, mostly in the range between 500 meters and 2000 meters, recoil is also acceptable.

With the fixed navy, in the artillery above the research of the in-depth, especially the improvement of explosives, there has been a rapid development, the power is increased ten times, plus a variety of self-tightening, as well as the improvement of the gunner, unsoliably, in terms of the explosion of the pressure, increased by more than 10 times, in this case, the material of the gun itself, is able to withstand the impact of the explosion, but the recoil is not good.

There are also no back-sitting guns, but the rear-siter guns, mostly single-man, or small-calibre, large-calibre guns, can be set up to reduce the back-sitting force, but it is impossible to completely reduce, and even some guns, in order to ensure the power, will not use the design of the reduced satiation.

Now the fixed navy, the research of artillery is just beginning, but constantly increasing the power of explosives to enhance the overall power, in this case, for the power of the artillery is greatly improved, but for the wooden sailing, but not so friendly, unkindly, strong recoil, is the nightmare of wooden sailing.

From about 180 mm, to 150, and then to 105, step by step down, if from the inch above, almost has been reduced to the level of 4 inches, but for the Spanish sailing ship, the increase in the strength of the gun also represents the improvement of combat effectiveness, with the help of some platforms and armor, can withstand the 105 mm gun back seat, the number of a ship's artillery, but also from the peak of 174, reduced to about 60, but the overall power, but not the same.

Not to mention the range, the new 105 mm gun, its range, reached a staggering 10 kilometers, although for the effective range, only a little more than half, but this distance, than before there is a huge increase.

Another increase was the use of a new gunpowder 105 mm gun, his power is no worse than the old 210 mm gun, let alone the shooting speed, three times, or even higher shooting speed, so that the Navy's battleships, not only did not weaken, but increased.

However, accustomed to the ship's giant guns, especially Zhao Xin, who is looking forward to the Battle of the Jtland, it is better to see that the battleship, under the current state, was born into his hand, and the scientific and technological conditions of the Navy have already had the conditions for birth.

This is Zhao Xin, regardless of the need, forced to open the heavy artillery root cause, you know, the current loading of the Spanish sailing ship on the artillery, are only 105 mm, even 152 mm, because of the huge satiation, can not be loaded on the Spanish sailing ship above, not to mention the 250 mm or more guns.

But Zhao Xin still did so, I thought that in order to set the speed of the development of the navy, on the ship, it must be like a sailing ship, a year or two, from 200 stones to 20,000 stone progress, but unfortunately, the overall structure of the above problems, so that he did not have this possibility, in this case, although the investment for the ship gradually increased, a short time to see the ship can be expected, but the battleship, it is almost impossible.

Under such a premise, the 400 mm gun is a little too big, at least, without the ship, the rest is very difficult even if he is to drag him, but even if it is a Spanish galleon, it can not withstand the back of more than 150 mm artillery, not to mention 400 mm, no all-steel warships, it is impossible to withstand the hind force of such a beast.

Zhao Xin for the control of the Navy, not to mention the artillery such an investment, even the exploration of the American waterway after many years, cost a lot of projects, can also withstand all the pressure to implement, that is, this project is too expensive, only some people in the inside to put forward opposition, similar to artillery such a project, no one said.

Zhao Xin is not afraid of being said, but not to let himself, too wasteful, the importance of the American waterway is only he knows, artillery, although the same is true, but in the ship can not use such a large artillery, does not mean that this gun has no other use, soon, Zhao Xin to this artillery, found a use on land.
