2394: C2394 A New Mission

C2394 A New Mission

The Iowa, after all, had a displacement of nearly sixty thousand tons. It was a super warship. Such a huge displacement of water could be done too much.2

The previous Naval Gun would definitely be dismantled. On the one hand, in a modern war, this kind of cannon was really not very powerful. Only when their own side completely seized control of the air could they rely on the coastline of the other side. Attack the enemy's land targets. But under these circumstances, their own side's 203 mm Naval Gun could also be completed. Although the power of 406 Naval Gun was very great, it was already considered excess.

Furthermore, if these few Naval Gun existed, it would definitely cause the experts of Y Country to blabber on endlessly. They would spread the threat theory of their own side, and furthermore, they had already destroyed many of the structure of the pagoda. Repairing it was very complicated. Therefore, Qin Guan threw out his own point of view.

"When all three artillery positions are dismantled, in the original position, we can deploy over 200 Long Sword - 10 cruise missiles' Launch Tube."

The Arsenal Ship used the large number of weapons it carried to launch an attack on the ground. Among all kinds of weapons, cruise missiles were the most suitable. Coincidentally, they had already developed the Long Sword -10 cruise missile. Although it was relatively long, it could only be stuffed into an Oscar class nuclear submarine's Launch Tube, but on this battleship... Using the original position of the cannon turret, its size was definitely not a problem. Who would dare to be unconvinced? 200 cruise missiles will be enough to knock you down!

Deploying 200 cannons on the three cannon positions was absolutely not a problem, and there might even be more. Now, Qin Guan brought up his own idea, which was also the most suitable way to operate the Iowa battleship.

"Yeah, this kind of change is very little." Elder Pann said, "This is also the most practical situation, but it's a pity."

Everyone knew what Elder Pann was feeling pity for. Such a powerful warship. The powerful Naval Gun was about to be torn apart. It was truly a pity. If this battleship could be operated directly, then the 406 mm Naval Gun... Just thinking about it was exciting.

"For our battleship, traditional cannons will be eliminated in the end." Qin Guan said, "Maybe the super cannon will be its final destination."

Speaking up to this point, Qin Guan looked at the meeting place. Dr. Boole did not attend the meeting. This kind of thing. The degree of confidentiality of the meeting was very high. After all, Dr. Boole was an outsider. Besides, Dr. Boole did not want to participate in this kind of meeting. As long as he could get his gun barrel, it was enough to study the super cannon. Qin Guan dismantled the cannon barrels and gave them to him. It was enough for him to be happy.

For traditional cannons, the super cannons seemed to be their home. Then, what kind of cannons would replace the traditional cannons?

"Now, please let our experts introduce us." Qin Guan said to everyone.

After the traditional cannons were eliminated, what were the new cannons? Qin Guan pointed out the direction to the specialized organization, and that was the Electromagnetic Cannon! In fact, Qin Guan and Dr. Boole had discussed the development of the Electromagnetic Cannon before. However, it was not convenient for Dr. Boole to participate in this kind of meeting. Furthermore, Dr. Boole was best at using the most ordinary cannon. He was still not good at restarting the research and development of the Electromagnetic Cannon.

What he introduced to everyone was an expert from the electricity system. Of course, he was also considered an expert from a different profession. In the beginning, he was in charge of the electricity system. And now, a specialized research team has both the power system and the power system. There was also the cannon system. In the military industry of Han Country, this kind of cooperation was increasing.

"Right now, the world is developing a new generation of theoretical research. Compared to the traditional gunpowder cannons, there are two new development directions. The electromagnetic rail cannon and the electrothermal chemical cannon, according to the ideas provided by President Qin, we conducted the research and development of the Electromagnetic Cannon. " The seemingly young expert said, "Compared to the electrochemical cannon, the electromagnetic rail cannon has much more potential. However, this technology will have a huge problem in reaching the practical stage. "

After all, this could be considered a science fiction technology. Electromagnetic Cannon, a practical electromagnetic force to drive the cannon forward. This way, there was no need for gunpowder, no pressure, and so on. It could allow the cannon to reach a higher speed. However, it was brand new, and there were a lot of theories that needed to be verified. Determining the route.

"We are currently researching and developing in many related fields. Of course, we also need the support of the warship. If we want to get this Electromagnetic Cannon and Boarding the Ship, we need the warship's power support."

The new generation of warships required a considerable amount of energy. If it was an ordinary warship, it wouldn't be able to provide this energy at all. As long as it was launched once, it would be enough to cause the entire warship's circuit to shut down due to overload.

"Up until now, we believe that the Iowa class battleship is the only warship that can satisfy our need for electricity. Therefore, we look forward to using a secondary turret to conduct research on the Electromagnetic Cannon on this warship."

The Iowa class was an Arsenal Ship. Apart from having a large number of missiles, it also had the world's most advanced Electromagnetic Cannon!

This was also Qin Guan's other preparation plan. Although the barrel of the cannon was greatly shrunk, its power did not decrease. It could also reach the level of 406 mm Naval Gun!

In the future, warships began to conduct full power propulsion. The gas turbines on the warships were only used to provide electricity and general power. Radar and Naval Gun could only be used in the era of full power propulsion. The power supply on the warships could be considered to have been completely solved. Therefore... This must be a trend.

But now, this method had obviously not developed yet. In order to experiment with this Electromagnetic Cannon, one needed to use a warship with sufficient electricity to provide an experimental platform. A warship with a displacement of nearly 60,000 tons naturally had such a huge power supply. Hence, using it to experiment was the best!

The 406 mm Naval Gun was a pity that it was torn apart just like that. However, we can use the Electromagnetic Cannon that is more advanced than it. Just using the secondary turret can be compared to the original heavy artillery. This is the improvement of technology. If this Electromagnetic Cannon is successfully developed... It could also be used on the various warships in the future. It could become a typical example of low-cost, high-efficiency weapons!

Just as everyone was discussing, the Iowa class battleship was given an updated status that was closer to the actual needs. However, this faced a new problem.

The mothership was gone once again.
