Chapter 706: The design of a land-based aircraft carrier

5 min read1,360 words

Although Chen Xin expressed the impossibility of designing a larger mobile

base in a short period of time, both the military and high-level officials

delegated this task to him.

Faced with the entrustment of the military and high-level officials who were

half orders and half requests, Chen Xin could only agree to it.

After all, this is indeed related to the victory of mankind in this war

against alien creatures. If possible, Chen Xin also hopes to provide more

advantages for the country and mankind.

The design of a large-scale mobile base is naturally not as simple as the

previous mobile base.

It can even be said that because of the difference in function and size of the

two, it is almost completely redesigned.

After all, the size of the ship has been enlarged so much, the entire hull

structure and travel method must be redesigned, instead of simply enlarging

the original mobile base.

Although it is possible to learn a lot of technical experience from the

original mobile base, the large-scale mobile base still cannot copy these

experiences mechanically.

While thinking about how to design a large-scale mobile base, Chen Xin picked

up pen and paper and drew sketches on the paper.

According to the requirements of the military, an aircraft carrier is in fact

the most suitable for their requirements, but it is clear that the aircraft

carrier cannot be driven ashore, and the previous disaster also made all the

navy's ships useless, and the aircraft carrier is no exception. .

"So you are planning to design a land aircraft carrier?" Chen Xin looked at

what he drew on paper like an aircraft carrier with tracks, and shook his head

helplessly.

The drawing is simple, but if you really want to design, it is by no means

such a simple installation of tracks under the aircraft carrier.

Apart from other things, the displacement of a large aircraft carrier is more

than 70,000 tons, and the largest can even be more than 100,000 tons. Such a

huge weight does not matter at sea. It will not be a problem if it is

supported by sea water.

But on land, these weights are all pressed on the ground, and any uneven force

may cause the entire hull to tip over or even break.

Moreover, a runway that can take off and land fighter jets, even if it is only

a carrier-based aircraft, needs to be at least two to three hundred meters

long. A movable object of this size can move on the ground, not to mention the

problem of bearing and force, is it possible? The terrain passed is a problem.

However, now that I have accepted the job, I still have to do it.

The military's request is that fighter jets can be taken off and landed, but

it is not realistic to make a runway two to three hundred meters long like an

aircraft carrier.

However, the takeoff and landing of fighter jets is not the only method of

taxiing on the runway. The catapult or vertical takeoff and landing used by

the aircraft carrier itself to shorten the length of the runway are all

reference methods.

"Using vertical take-off and landing to shorten the length of the runway and

increase the missile silos..." Chen Xin gradually sorted out his thoughts, and

gradually got a general direction as his thoughts were clarified.

And as Chen Xin gradually found the direction, the sketch on the drawing

gradually became clear: "Vertical take-off and landing positions are set up on

the deck, the lifting platform is installed, the hangar is placed under the

deck, and the missile silo is installed on the side, which can be launched

obliquely. You can usually put it away..."

In this version of the design, Chen Xin did not lengthen the runway too much,

but changed the landing platform that protrudes from the side of the hangar of

the mobile base to be placed on the top deck.

And the vertical take-off and landing method is adopted, and only the top deck

is used as a take-off and landing stand, and it is not used as a runway, so

there is no need to extend the length too much.

As for the missile launch port, it was originally placed on the top deck.

Although the launch port of the mobile base can be retained after the top deck

is used for take-off and landing, it does not affect the take-off and landing

of the deck aircraft.

After thinking about it, Chen Xin placed it on the side of the mobile base and

made it at an inclined angle, with the bottom in the mobile base and the

launch port on the outside.

"This change is almost the same. Next, you need to make it bigger." Chen Xin

looked at the things he had designed and nodded in satisfaction.

Although it requires a lot of processes and verifications to actually convert

the drawings into real objects, and many places need to be modified according

to the actual situation, but at present this is only a conceptual design

drawing that can reflect the design ideas, but it does not need to be done.

Too detailed.

Therefore, it did not take long for Chen Xin to complete the blueprint of the

so-called large-scale mobile base.

The large mobile base on the drawing is indeed larger or longer than the

mobile base currently used by the military.

After comprehensive consideration, Chen Xin did not make the top deck a

runway, but extended the overall length of the mobile base, and installed

catapults and blocking cables on the top deck so that it can be used when

necessary. Used to take off and land aircraft.

Of course, despite the design of such a function, large mobile bases still use

vertical take-off and landing as the main method of take-off and landing.

Although this requires a redesign of a fighter that can take off and land

vertically, Chen Xin thinks it is worth it.

As for the lengthening of the hull, it is not only to allow the top deck to

have the function of a runway, but also to expand the hangar so that it can

accommodate more fighters.

After all, fighter jets are not the same as helicopters. They have stronger

combat effectiveness and larger body size, so a hangar large enough to

accommodate fighter jets is needed.

For this reason, the decks of aircraft carriers are actually very high.

Although there is a huge space inside, the largest space is always the hangar.

Therefore, when Chen Xin was designing a large-scale mobile base, UU Reading

www.uukanshu.com also removed a deck below the original hangar and turned it

into a part of the hangar, so that there is a larger hangar in the hangar. The

space can accommodate more fighters.

In addition, it is the missile launching port on the sideboard. Although a

part of the launching mechanism is extended out of the hull by using an

oblique placement method, most of the structure is still inside the hull. Chen

Xin has also made certain adjustments to this part. , But the overall change

is small.

Chen Xin did not make much adjustments to the other parts of the mobile base.

He just optimized the internal space structure and expanded the area used as a

battlefield hospital.

"It looks okay, but I am afraid that the power system and mobile mechanism

will have to be redone!" The structure of the superstructure is well designed,

but the mobile mechanism at the bottom is the focus of this large mobile base,

which makes Chen Xin feel that The headache part.

Fortunately, this matter did not require him to have a headache alone. After

reprocessing the completed conceptual design drawing and converting it into a

more detailed and formal design drawing, Chen Xin sent the drawing to the

relevant unit and asked them to follow it. A design drawing to propose a

design plan.

For Chen Xin, what he wants is not technology, but ideas. As long as ideas can

solve problems and are realistic, he can transform them into actual

technology.
