Chapter 368 Ning Liao



Once is new, twice is familiar. This is the second time for the family to participate in the recuperation. They said that they are quite familiar with the recuperation process, so Wu Tong can go about his business and have fun without worry. Don’t they know how to do that?

With familiar people following you, you don’t have to worry about anything.

With Tongtong around, their treatment will not be any different.

But I don’t know if I can be with Tongtong this time?

It didn't matter if they couldn't. Tongtong's research was more important, so they should focus on the real business. From now until the start of school in September, they still had more than two weeks of time to explore Green Island in depth.

They must make good use of the high treatment that Tongtong has given them, and not waste Tongtong's efforts and hard work.

"Tongtong, we will take care of ourselves!" Jin Yongqing expressed his opinion on behalf of the whole family. They cannot let Tongtong be busy with important matters and worry about them, otherwise they might not be too disappointing!

Wu Tong's private plane arrived at Green Island's private airport and was personally picked up by Li Huaimin.

"Mr. Wu, welcome, welcome!" Li Huaimin stepped forward and shook hands with Wu Tong, warmly welcoming him.

"Leader Li, I will leave the arrangements to you from now on. I will fully cooperate!" Wu Tong made sure to tell Li Huaimin. As Li Huaimin got on the car that picked them up at the airport, the car started quietly, almost so steadily that no one could notice, and carried a group of people towards the destination.

"Mr. Wu, do you need to rest for a while?" Li Huaimin asked. Their first arrangement today was to arrange for Wu Tong to stay in the sanatorium here, let Wu Tong rest for a while, and then make other arrangements.

"Let's get straight to the point. I'm here to do work!" Wu Tong said directly. She had been resting all the way. With her physical condition, the impact was minimal and she could start working immediately. Wu Tong didn't bother to be polite with Li Huaimin.

"Then let's go straight to the Ningliao. I'll give you a tour first!" Before research and development, they wanted to give Wu Tong a concrete idea of the current Ningliao. This was a backup plan, and everything was ready.

"Okay, let's go take a look at this big guy Ningliao first, and then I want to get a detailed understanding of the overall information of Ningliao!" Wu Tong said her thoughts. If she wanted to improve and optimize the Ningliao ship, she must know the Ningliao ship like the back of her hand, and establish a complete model in the deduction space, so that she can better carry out improvement and deduction.

"Okay, no problem, Mr. Wu, it's all arranged!" Wu Tong had explained all of this to them in advance, so they naturally wouldn't drag their feet and arranged everything perfectly. The more Wu Tong cared, the happier they were. This was accumulating momentum for the vigorous development of their fleet!

"The Ning Liao ship is currently anchored at Green Island. After we board, the Ning Liao ship will move forward, giving you a clearer understanding of the Ning Liao's work. Next, we will take a special plane directly to the Jiangcheng 707 Research Institute. That is the cradle of our battleship, and the most detailed information is all there!"

The predecessor of the Ningliao was the Varyag, a secondary ship of the Soviet Navy's Marshal Kuznetsov-class aircraft carrier. In the mid-to-late 1980s, when the Varyag was under construction in Ukraine, the former Soviet Union collapsed and the construction project was interrupted, with a completion rate of 68%.

In 1999, the country went through great pains to purchase the Varyag.

It arrived at Binh Thanh Port on March 4, 2002, and began to be further constructed and improved as a sea ship on April 26, 2005.

At that time, the goal of the ship was to modify and manufacture this unfinished aircraft carrier, transform it into a ship suitable for domestic use, and use it for scientific research, experiments and training purposes, to fully understand the technology, draw on and extend it, and build China's own domestically produced aircraft carrier.

The oath is still ringing in my ears. From the time they arrived in Hong Kong to now, it took ten years of hard work to finally have the big thing in front of Wu Tong and the others.

The Ningliao ship is a well-deserved big guy!

Wu Tong had learned about its simple parameters before coming. The entire ship is 304 meters long, equivalent to the length of three football fields, the waterline is 281 meters, equivalent to the length of nine train cars, and it is 75 meters wide, which is the width of 25 cars side by side. The entire flight deck alone is 300 meters long, 70 meters wide, and 60 meters high, which is the height of a 20-story building.

When hearing these numbers, many people don't have a clear idea.

Let me put it this way, there are more than 20 floors below the flight deck. The hottest cabin has a temperature of 40 or 50 degrees, and the coldest deck has a temperature below zero. If you patrol these 20 floors from top to bottom, you can basically experience the temperature changes from winter to summer.

Moreover, there are more than 3,600 cabins inside the ship. In addition to various equipment and instruments, there are also living areas for cruise soldiers. There are canteens, laundry rooms, gyms, small supermarkets, post offices, etc. The internal settings are particularly rich. Not to mention that new recruits often can't find their rooms on board, even the chief designer of the aircraft carrier got lost!

There was once a metaphor: if a baby was born on the Liaoning and explored a different room each day, by the time the baby had explored every room, it would be essentially 10 years old. This apt metaphor fully illustrates the sheer size of the Liaoning!

Only when you are actually on this huge mother ship can you truly feel the grand scale of the aircraft carrier.

"Boss Wu, this is our Ning Liao ship!" After boarding the Ning Liao ship, standing at the highest point of the ship's tower, taking in the entire flight deck and the Ning Liao ship, Li Huaimin introduced it to Wu Tong: "The Ning Liao ship has a displacement of tons, a full-load displacement of tons, and a carrying capacity of 6,400 tons!"

These data were transformed into corresponding understandings by Wu Tong.

Displacement refers to the weight of water displaced by a vessel and is an important indicator of its size and carrying capacity. Fully loaded displacement refers to the weight of water displaced by a fully loaded vessel, including the weight of the hull, propulsion system, fuel, ammunition, food, personnel, cargo, and other items. Deadweight refers to the weight of all cargo a fully loaded vessel can carry, excluding its own weight.

"Our maximum speed has now reached 30 knots, equivalent to 55.56 kilometers per hour, more than twice as fast as an average passenger ship. Currently, the Ningliao's expected cruising range has reached 8,000 nautical miles, equivalent to 14,816 kilometers, equivalent to flying from Shangjing to Paris and back. The Ningliao's endurance has reached 45 days, equivalent to a month and a half of continuous missions at sea!"

"Currently, our Ningliao ship is equipped with..."

These are the results of their unremitting efforts and persistent pursuit, which ultimately brought about the progress.

However, compared to the nuclear-powered aircraft carriers across the sea, which have a displacement of at least 100,000 tons, advanced power systems, excellent seaworthiness, reactor core lifespans of 13 to 15 years, a range of 800,000 to 1 million nautical miles per refueling, the ability to remain at sea for months without resupply, and strong self-sustaining capabilities, there is still a huge gap.

These gaps may not be too noticeable in daily life, but in real wartime, the errors are too huge and will be an obvious fatal weakness!
