Chapter 299: 2. Ferocious animals(8)

PS: Don’t think that the cannon is a simple physical job, it is a technical work that has undergone a lot of calculations and corrections...The battleship will be updated later.
What kind of battleship is the strongest? Can it surpass all today's sail battleships in one fell swoop? This problem has always plagued the young engineers of the Defense Force's Battleship Design Bureau.
After the fall of the Kingdom of Gilmania, the elves were completely blank in the field of building floating battleships. More than 1,000 years of blank chronology is more miserable than the German Navy, which was deeply affected by the Treaty of Versailles, completely from scratch.
A blank starting point is certainly miserable, but at the same time, it can also be free from any inherent thinking and international arms treaties. By building an epoch-making floating battleship to build the strongest air fleet, it can surpass the powers in one fell swoop.
In the first few absurd and undesigned, elf designers were keenly aware that the main weapons of the future naval battle are not sticks, catapults, throwing javelins, magic griffon cavalry and dragon cavalry, but large caliber artillery. And the armored battleship of the ship-borne MDS, for this reason, they even came up with an aerial monster designed with an 800mm caliber cannon and 350 MDSs.
Leaving aside the mania part, their thinking is correct. In terms of range, firepower, rate of fire, range of projection, etc., the combination of artillery and MDS is better than mainstream ship warfare weapons in the world today. The rest is just to give them a hint of the correct direction, waiting for the maturity and practicality of related technologies and subsystems. Change.
Armor plate, high-power engine, catapult, optical rangefinder, radio communication, fire control system, radar, ship model wind tunnel...
After all these improvements, the elves had an important part of their vision of future air power. The ideal sail warship killer, the Deflinger-class armored ship, was finally able to fall from the drawing board.
This is a small airship with a modular design, a large number of welding techniques, and an airborne carrier battleship that implements the concept of full-heavy artillery. Two slender spindle-shaped power-carrier areas with a length of 186 meters and a width of 20.7 meters Block, sandwiched by a 32-meter long and 10.6-meter wide beef tongue artillery-the unique dual fuselage streamline shape of the command block does not look bloated, and two sets of double reverse variable torque propeller main propulsion at the stern With the assistance of the crew and the auxiliary propeller units that extend out of the hull like the snails of the crotch, this 26,000-ton displacement ship can run an amazing speed of 65 knots (120.38 km/h). During the engagement, one of the two rudders was destroyed and stuck. Can still leave the battlefield at half speed. The complicated pressurized cabin structure allows this high-speed warship to climb to a height of 10,000 meters, and the wooden sail ship can climb to 3500 meters.
In addition to the excellent basic performance, the Deflinger-class firepower can be described as powerful. The central area is equipped with 6 double-mounted 54.5 times diameter barrels of 280mm main guns. This excellent performance of the gun can be 330 at a 40° elevation angle. Kilogram shells were fired up to 42500 meters. Even more deadly. This kind of naval gun has the ability to shoot quickly. The rate of fire of 3 rounds per minute is almost equal to the level of a rapid-fire gun for a heavy naval gun. Six turrets are installed in the central block along the central axis, with three front and rear, and two upper decks. The lower deck turret adopts a ladder piggyback structure with two front and rear seats.
In addition to the fierce main gun, the designer also installed 12 double-unit 128mm high-level dual-purpose turrets for this type of warship. A large number of double-unit 37mm and 4mm 20mm small-caliber rapid-fire anti-aircraft guns were also inserted into the seam pins. There are also 48 aircraft-borne MDSs that can quickly attack the arch frigate or launch a surprise attack on the enemy ship through the electromagnetic catapult of the outer hull. Such complete firepower is foolproof.
But building a large ship is not easy. Designers who are not sure enough about their baby pimples are also very careful in protection. They have specially developed armor plates that can be welded. The main armor belt that covers the entire battleship streamline and bullet-proof shape is about 80mm thick, and 40mm on the inside. The thick partition, between the two layers is a load-bearing pressure tank. The armor of the hangar, propulsion unit, ammunition depot, etc. at the key position is 190mm, and the armor of the bridge commander's tower is 220mm thick. Finally, the phantom technique [phantom city] was painstakingly configured. After the concealment has been greatly enhanced, those designers are finally satisfied and can take a breath.
After a long period of planning—overthrowing—restarting—determining—building—testing—being in service. The Air Force of the Defense Forces of Alfheim finally has a warship designed and built by itself to meet its strategic and tactical needs.
The Deflinger class can approach the enemy without knowing it during the raid operation, and quickly sink the enemy ship with strong firepower. Before the enemy fleet reacts and starts the rounding, it is enough to get rid of the danger by its own high speed. The dense artillery fire when a sufficient number of Deflinger-classes are formed into a fleet is also daunting.
just now. Unconsciously, the danger is close at hand, and the Orient, rushing straight to the ground, will soon become an important reference for Deflinger to demonstrate whether his own design ideas are correct.
In the brightly lit shooting room, one item of data is collected from all corners of the battleship. The bridge suspended at the lower part of the central block is equipped with a 10.5 meter baseline optical rangefinder~EbookFREE.me~Observation Center The crosshair is aimed at the moving enemy ship, and from there comes the target's bearing, course, and speed. Repeat the type of projectile over the turret, the type of propellant and the amount of charge (related to the initial velocity of the projectile), the age of the gun, the age of the gun, the latent difference (the difference between the height of the azimuth plate and the turret), the concentration angle (the difference between the azimuth plate and the main turret) Horizontal angle), other observation bridges send a total of 21 reference values ​​involving trajectory calculation such as wind force, wind direction, temperature, air pressure, humidity, inertial deviation caused by planetary rotation speed, etc., and input the teletype ballistic calculator one by one After that, the obtained feedback correction value is displayed on the terminal panel. The crew in the shooting post saw a series of instrument pointers synchronized with the indicators in the main turret steadily swing, and finally stopped to point to a set of data. The electrically driven turret slowly rotates according to these data, and the sturdy barrel adjusts its pitch angle.
"Half-side volley (Half-)!"
The moment the debugging was over, Major Schneider, the first gunner, ordered with a habitual sneer, ringing the alarm bell inside the ship without a trace.
In an instant, the two front main guns below the Deflinger burst out as dazzling as the sun, even if they were 7000 meters away, they were still preparing for the collision, using the trebuchet and the racket to help the companions. The crew of the ship was shocked. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets.
