Chapter 393: Early morning

"'Chuchen' is a Newton-class destroyer with a standard displacement of 7200 tons; a full-load displacement of 8660 tons; a total length of 129.02 meters, a full width of 13.50 meters, a draft of 4.8 meters; a maximum speed of 36.8 knots; and a crew of 350 people ; Endurance: 7500 nautical miles / 20 knots. "
"When it was first manufactured, it had 3 Besib 32 twin 5-inch high-level dual-purpose guns; 2 533-mm torpedo tubes for 5 pairs; 2 Samuel quadruple 40-mm machine guns, and Samai There are two 40mm machine guns and 11 Mastima single barrel 20mm machine guns; the firepower is amazing. Of course, most of its weapons have been disassembled. "
When Li Mochen boarded the ship, a second-hand merchant named Lafayette introduced him proudly in his language.
"This is an American destroyer built in the late 1940s. It was originally intended to be used as the main destroyer of the American Federation in the coming decades. But the military competition in the Cold War era made it eliminated in advance, in 75 years. It was sold to East Asia, where it was disposed of as a scrap ship after serving there for twelve years. Now, this destroyer has been civilized. It still has a fifty-year lifespan and military destroyer-level defense capabilities. An Aegis 3884 four-phase phased array radar produced by Light Magic, a C44 target irradiation radar and corresponding fire control system, as well as the most advanced listener 52 plane search radar and listener 53 marine radar. The weapons are two The "Roarer" type five-inch 54-fold naval gun is also equipped with a four-by-four MK-321 anti-ship missile launcher, four-by-four Sam-21 anti-aircraft missiles, and a set of close-range defenses Weapon system, and a total of fourteen cannons. "
"Are you sure it is a civilized modification?"
Li Mochen could not understand his face. He thought about this civilized modification. Where is the civilized one?
There is also the Aegis 3884 phased array radar-is this the latest radar installed by the American Navy? What seems to be a key component of the Aegis system, which can also be used for civilian purposes?
"Of course, all weapons and radar are castrated, basically only 2/3 of the genuine performance and range. Its engine has also been replaced, and the speed is only 30 knots, but the endurance is greatly increased, reaching 9,000 nautical miles."
A second-hand boat merchant named Lafayette answered his doubts: "Although its combat power is far less than that of a warship, you can place the" Early Morning "near the mainland of Antolia, then it is still a powerful and unpretentious. War fortress. Even the several battleships running over there must be wary of three points in front of its anti-ship missiles. And now you only need to use 900 million gold shields to take it down. Mr. Wilton Stein I do n’t think there will be any more cost-effective business. With this retired warship, your fleet will be freely accessible on the mainland of Antonia. "
Li Mochen didn't speak, only turned to look at the group of people behind him. These are the captains he recently hired at a high price, the first and second mates, the captain, and some of them are retired naval officers.
There is no way. He knows nothing about warships, and he can't figure out whether what Mr. Lafat said is true or not. At this time, he can only rely on the professional capabilities of his employees.
Li Mochen believes that these people will certainly give pertinent opinions. After all, the quality of this warship is also related to their future lives and safety.
"I feel it's ok."
"Several sets of weapon systems look quite new, so I do n’t know how they are."
"The maintenance of the hull is okay, that is, some devices are still a few decades ago. Although their design life is very long, this renovation is too careless."
"What I am most concerned about is how these radars on the ship are integrated with sonar and weapon systems. This is the key."
"If all the equipment has a warranty, I feel that it can be used reluctantly-"
"The price is too exaggerated? Now a brand new destroyer, the cost is only 1.2 billion gold shield."
Li Mochen discovered that although this group of people were all incompetent, they were not very enthusiastic. But there is no question about the quality and combat effectiveness of this ship.
Several of the retired officers were shining in the eyes, and the expression seemed to be telling him to buy it quickly, don't hesitate anymore! It is this one.
Li Mochen had some thoughts, but he asked his side, a gray-haired old man said, "What do you think? Brigadier General Clayton?"
Brigadier General Wallace Clayton, now 57 years old, a retired Navy officer, is also a 19th-level magic shooter. During his service, he served as the captain of three destroyers.
This is Li Mochen, the leader of the regiment invited by Michael Wood.
He paid a huge cost for this, in addition to an annual salary of 10 million, there is also a super life potion used to help Wallace Clayton heal the injury and prolong his life for two years; and a 'Anfitrit Tears', help Wallace Clayton's magical ability to improve to 20th level.
In addition, he also made a commitment to help Wallace Clayton enter the legend within seven years.
Li Mochen thought that the price was worth it. Since the former Brigadier General joined his team, the things that had been stumbled on the side of the ship group seemed to add lubricating oil, and it suddenly smoothed up, and he almost didn't need him anymore. Worry about it.
"If you have enough funds for BOSS, then I suggest you buy it."
Wallace Clayton was rubbing the new paint in the corridor, his eyes gleaming with wisdom: "But I see boss, do you seem to have other concerns?"
"Mostly personnel. This Mr. Lafayette said that the ship has undergone three sea trials after conversion and was secured with his reputation. Then I think there is no problem with the ship itself."
Li Mochen frowned: "But we need enough manpower to operate it ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I also heard that a warship needs to be run-in and adapted to play its full combat power."
Mainly because the time is too tight. In his previous plan, there was no such ‘Early Morning’.
This is completely someone's temporary intention 15 days ago, remembering one of his partners in Southeast Asia, a retired warship can be sold.
"The words of the staff are not a problem."
Brigadier General Wallace Clayton thought about it for a moment, and gave a guarantee in a calm tone: "For those sailors who want to live on the mainland of Antalya, a ship with a strong combat power is equivalent to the protection of life. . Especially for those retired veterans, this ship is very attractive. The combat strength really needs to be adapted, but I guarantee that this ship will be able to exert its basic combat power for up to ten days. It is powerful, It ’s still not comparable to the armed merchant ships you own.

So Li Mochen turned around and offered the price to Mr. Lafayette: "700 million gold shields, you must pay in installments. I will pay you 50 million in the first installment. Mr. Lafayette, I am very sincere."
"If you install the loan in installments, you have to get 750 million."
Mr. Lafayette smiled: "If you agree, this boat is yours. Otherwise, we can't talk."
The ship transaction involving hundreds of millions of gold shields is actually not as sloppy as they are, but this transaction was already negotiated before they met. Even his Rafat was only used as a cover to hide his eyes. This ship was passed over in his hands, and never belonged to him.
So at this moment, they are just pretending.
