"Test bomb?"
Jiang Yan was shocked to hear the news brought by Lu Yunsheng.
She had just returned less than a month ago, but she didn't expect that the military factory had already made the torpedoes and was ready to start testing them.
Lu Yunsheng smiled and said, "Wife, although we are not very powerful yet, as long as we have the design drawings, we will definitely be able to build it."
Afterwards, Jiang Yan packed up and followed Lu Yunsheng and the convoy escorted by the regiment to the fleet dock on the seaside.
This is a dock built specifically for ships at sea. It is not big, but the water is deep enough for ships to set sail.
Along the way, Jiang Yan was somewhat excited and expectant, and kept looking around, but she was still somewhat disappointed when she actually saw the ships belonging to the South China Sea.
"Is this our ship?"
"Why does it look like a converted large ship?"
Looking at the huge steel structure that showed vicissitudes and antiquity in every part, Jiang Yan couldn't believe it.
Because it does not have the technological feel of a military killer weapon at all, instead it gives people the feeling of a hero in his twilight years who has to fight bravely, which is really sad.
"Sister-in-law, the ship you see is already the best ship in our Southern Navy. It is responsible for patrolling and guarding the South China Sea."
…
Listening to everyone's introduction, Jiang Yan looked into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking. Lu Shouhai suddenly said, "The South China Sea is very large, and it is a little overwhelmed."
The convoy quickly approached the dock. Several people on the dock were looking around. Seeing the familiar convoy coming, Tai Sicheng and Chen Zhiyuan hurried over.
"Everything is ready. We are just waiting for you, the chief designer."
“Hope everything goes well.”
Although they were personally overseeing the manufacturing, Tai Sicheng and Chen Zhiyuan were still very nervous. This torpedo was very important to them, to Jiang Yan, and to China.
Once successful, Jiang Yan will receive even greater support, and they will also witness with their own eyes the rise of a new scientific research star, who was discovered by them and sent to the forefront by them personally.
I am so proud of it!
The joy of discovering such an outstanding scientific research talent for the country is even greater than the success of their own research projects.
"Thank you for your hard work, teachers."
Although Chen Zhiyuan and Tai Sicheng looked in good spirits, they were old after all and still looked tired.
"It's not hard, it's not tiring. As long as I can see the navy getting stronger step by step, it's all worth it."
Chen Zhiyuan didn't feel tired at all. He was very excited. Tai Sicheng was in the same state.
Seeing this, Jiang Yan took out two small porcelain bottles from her pocket and gave each of them a bottle of newly made pills.
"Teacher, this is a Yang Yuan Pill. You should take one every three days. It can replenish your energy and is good for your body."
Hearing this, their eyes lit up. They still remembered that Jiang Yan was a very good Chinese medicine practitioner.
The two men happily accepted the porcelain bottle, then took Jiang Yan on board and introduced her to the officer in charge of the test ammunition.
"This is the ship's captain, Comrade Ma Aiguo, and this is the deputy captain, Comrade Lu Fu... They are fully responsible for this torpedo test mission."
"Hello, both leaders."
Ma Aiguo and Lu Fu were both regimental-level officers, and were at the same level as Lu Shouhai and Sheng Pinghua.
Jiang Yan does not hold any official position, so as a military dependent, you should address him as the chief.
Ma Aiguo and Lu Fu were also very curious. They had just received the order and were very curious about the person who could develop a torpedo with performance that surpassed the MK46.
But they never expected that it was a girl old enough to be their daughter.
Ma Aiguo smiled and said, "I didn't expect the chief designer to be so young and promising! I hope you can develop more advanced equipment for the navy in the future."
Lu Fu looked at Jiang Yan and then at Lu Yunsheng who was protecting her beside her, and couldn't help but smile and nodded.
“Seeing you is like seeing the future of our country.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Zhiyuan who had been winking at him, and suggested with a smile, "Comrade Xiao Jiang, this should be your first time on a ship. We are still some distance away from our destination. We will take you around to see different places and let you learn about our navy."
Tai Sicheng immediately echoed.
"Then I'll trouble you two. It's rare to have the opportunity to personally board a ship and take a look."
"Okay."
Chen Zhiyuan also nodded in agreement, and Jiang Yan followed the crowd in a daze.
Ma Aiguo and Lu Fu gave a very detailed introduction, while Chen Zhiyuan and Tai Sicheng sighed and responded from time to time.
"Compared to the United States and the North Bear, the navy's equipment is indeed backward."
"Our navy also has its own long march to go, but I don't know if the younger generation can make a breakthrough and free us from being constrained."
The two of them sang in unison, glancing at Jiang Yan from the corner of their eyes from time to time.
Jiang Yan just listened quietly, and she finally realized that this group of people were working together to put on a show in front of her today.
Jiang Yan was helpless.
Lu Yunsheng, who witnessed this farce, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Lu Fu proposed to visit the ship, and Tai Sicheng and the other two actively agreed. He guessed their purpose.
What a good intention!
On one side is the country, and on the other side is his beloved wife. Lu Yunsheng feels that he is in a difficult situation. How can he remain calm and give hints to Chen Zhiyuan and others without making his wife angry?
Chen Zhiyuan and Tai Sicheng did not expect to arouse Jiang Yan's interest in one go, but when explaining, they described the difficulties and predicaments currently faced by the Chinese Navy in a more detailed and comprehensive manner.
They just couldn't believe that after knowing all this, Jiang Yan would not be moved or motivated at all.
The final part of the tour was the various weapons currently fitted to the ship.
For Jiang Yan, who is proficient in nuclear-powered aircraft carrier technology, there is nothing on this ship that is worth looking at.
The only weapons they could use were the three new torpedoes that had just been installed on the ship not long ago.
Listening to Ma Aiguo's introduction and Chen Zhiyuan and Tai Sicheng's crying, Jiang Yan couldn't help but sigh.
"well!"
It's really shabby.
Without a truly thorough understanding, it is hard to imagine how difficult China’s situation is at this moment.
Hearing Jiang Yan's sigh, Chen Zhiyuan and Tai Sicheng became excited instantly.
Before they could continue crying, Jiang Yan spoke first.
"An aircraft carrier formation is a large-scale maritime military formation with an aircraft carrier as its core, together with alert and support ships and carrier aviation.
So far, the US military's aircraft carrier fleet consists of aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyers, frigates, nuclear submarines and supply ships.
In addition, there are various carrier-based aircraft, including fighters, attack aircraft, electronic warfare aircraft, early warning aircraft, transport aircraft and multi-purpose helicopters, etc.
In actual combat, the aircraft carrier formation can also be temporarily adjusted according to different combat missions."
"Yes, that's right."
Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Chen Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly, and Tai Sicheng said: "What you said is correct, girl, what do you think about aircraft carriers?"
Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Jiang Yan sighed and said, "If there is enough information, I should be able to design a destroyer or submarine that can be used with torpedoes."
