"This speed has dropped too much!"
Comparing the speed of Type 091 Strategic Nuclear Submarine, it dropped by a few knots.
For a submarine, even a change in speed of one knot may have a huge impact, let alone such a large drop.
Originally, there was a significant gap between the speed of Type 091 Strategic Nuclear Submarine and the strategic Nuclear Submarine of several other foreign powers.
Now that it encounters such a serious speed drop, its performance disadvantage will undoubtedly be further amplified.
Lin Chenran couldn't help but shook his head helplessly, sighing secretly in his heart.
Previously, Elder Huang did not fully realize the series of chain reactions and potential threats brought about by the decrease in speed.
However, after Lin Chenran's detailed and in-depth analysis and reminder, Elder Huang finally began to realize the seriousness of the problem.
If this problem cannot be solved in time, it will not only affect the submarine's combat effectiveness, but may even bring catastrophic consequences to the entire mission at a critical moment.
Second-generation Strategic Nuclear Submarine actually uses the same power output system as Type 091 Strategic Nuclear Submarine.
They are all equipped with the same domestically produced Hydraulic Reactor, and both use a single-shaft single-propeller drive.
This Hydraulic Reactor is already outdated and outdated!
Compared with the advanced Hydraulic Reactor from other countries, especially similar products from Mao Xiong and Eagle Country, they are simply far behind!
It can be said that there is one sky and one earth!
The strategy of Eagle Country and Mao Xiong. The speed of Nuclear Submarine can easily reach 30 knots.
The Type 091 Strategic Nuclear Submarine of Flame Nation has only 25 knots.
Second-generation Strategic Nuclear Submarine comes to section 23.5.
Starting to reverse?
Faced with such a difficult situation, Lin Chenran thought for a moment and asked Elder Huang a key question, "Elder Huang, do you think there is a feasible solution to upgrade our existing Hydraulic Reactor?"
"If its performance can be successfully improved, maybe the root cause of the speed problem faced by Second-generation Strategic Nuclear Submarine can be solved."
Lin Chenran said slowly in an extremely calm tone.
Elder Huang, who was standing aside, looked solemn at this time, and he shook his head gently.
In fact, deep down in Elder Huang's heart, why doesn't he not want the power output system of Second-generation Strategic Nuclear Submarine to be effectively upgraded and improved?
However, given Flame Nation's current military capabilities, this is obviously a goal that is difficult to achieve.
At this moment, Lin Chenran suddenly smiled, and then said, "Elder Huang, let's not rush to conclusions so quickly!"
"One person is short-term, many people are short-term."
"I want to have an in-depth understanding of the design principles and related technical structure of Hydraulic Reactor independently developed by our country."
After saying that, Lin Chenran looked at Elder Huang expectantly.
Elder Huang After hearing this, his whole body was slightly startled for a moment, and then he fell into deep contemplation.
Time passed minute by minute, and after about a while, Elder Huang let out a long sigh.
Then, he raised his head and looked at Lin Chenran, with a hint of admiration in his eyes, and said with emotion, "After all, you are the one who has the courage and courage!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Huang turned around and walked to the safe again, skillfully entered the password and opened it.
This time, he carefully took out a document from it.
This document exudes an aura of mystery.
It is exactly the design sketch of the domestic Hydraulic Reactor independently developed by Flame Nation, which seems to carry the efforts and expectations of countless scientific researchers.
This simple design image is a window into unknown territory, and the information revealed inside is like stars.
Although there are many, they are arranged in an orderly manner, which is enough for Lin Chenran to have a general understanding of the domestic Hydraulic Reactor.
Lin Chenran took over the design sketch of the domestic Hydraulic Reactor from Elder Huang.
His eyes were instantly attracted, as if tightly attracted by a magnet, and he could no longer look away.
After getting the drawings, Lin Chenran didn't hesitate at all and immediately devoted himself to browsing them carefully.
His eyes are focused and sharp, not missing any detail.
As the reading progressed, his originally relaxed brows gradually wrinkled, like a volcano about to erupt, suppressing the turbulent emotions in his heart.
His heart became heavier and heavier, as if a huge stone was pressing on his heart, making him almost breathless.
Lin Chenran couldn't help but think to himself, "It's too backward!"
Although he had been mentally prepared before this.
We know that there is a gap between domestic Hydraulic Reactor and the international advanced level.
But the facts presented before him still far exceeded his imagination, and this huge sense of gap made him feel helpless.
While Lin Chenran was concentrating on studying the design sketch, Elder Huang, standing aside, was silently watching every subtle change in expression on his face.
When Lin Chenran saw the latter frowning, Elder Huang's heart suddenly "thumped", and an ominous premonition surged into his heart.
Time passed by, and finally, Lin Chenran slowly put down the heavy design sketch of the domestic Hydraulic Reactor in his hand.
Elder Huang saw this and couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?"
There was a hint of urgency in his voice.
It seems that I want to get an exact answer from Lin Chenran.
Lin Chenran sighed and shook his head, "Elder Huang, the design of this domestic Hydraulic Reactor is too old. After the upgrade, the performance will not be qualitatively improved."
The main reason is that the design and development of the domestic Hydraulic Reactor is too backward.
"This..."
"Then..."
Elder Huang Hearing this, his whole brows furrowed.
"Although the transformation and upgrading of the domestic Hydraulic Reactor has not improved much, I have two options for you to choose from, which can improve the speed of the Second-generation Strategic Nuclear Submarine."
Elder Huang heard this, his eyes glowed with golden light.
"Really?"
"Really!"
Lin Chenran nodded.
Then he stated his two major plans.
The first one is to solve the problem from the root.
That is to redesign a Hydraulic Reactor to replace the old Hydraulic Reactor.
Let it be the power take-off system of Second-generation Strategic Nuclear Submarine.
It's more difficult, but Lin Chenran is more confident.
"Can you 077 Machinery Military Factory redesign and develop a Hydraulic Reactor?"
"Or joint research and development?"
Elder Huang glanced at Lin Chenran, who wanted to get the answer he wanted from the latter.
"Although we 077 Machinery Military Factory have not designed and developed Hydraulic Reactor, we can provide you with the Special Composite Material you need."
In terms of Special Composite Material, 077 Machinery Military Factory is far ahead, even stronger than foreign countries in some aspects.
Elder Huang After hearing this, he smiled.
