Chapter 2752 Gao Fatty's inquiry

Fatty Gao actually has some ideas about the super aircraft carriers in the United States in history, because after answering Veneto, Fatty Gao also realized the problem of the Nimitz nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. Even without Nimitz, it would be difficult to deal with the USS Enterprise. The USS Enterprise is the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and was retired when Fatty Gao traveled.

As the world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the problem is actually quite large. The biggest problem is that in order not to affect combat effectiveness, the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier used a total of eight reactors, and the subsequent Nimitz-class aircraft carriers had only two reactors. This is also a big problem. After the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier, the nuclear reactor of the US aircraft carrier no longer uses nuclear submarine reactors, but later a country stepped on the same mine.

In history, France built the first non-US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the USS Charles de Gaulle, but it was a tragedy. At first, Charles de Gaulle planned to use a specially developed nuclear reactor, but in order to save money, it was replaced with a nuclear reactor of a nuclear submarine. Originally, there was no such thing as the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier used a reactor of a nuclear submarine. As long as the number was piled up, there was no big problem, but Charles de Gaulle only had two nuclear reactors. The problem brought about by this was huge and could be said to have directly affected Charles de Gaulle's combat effectiveness.

In fact, on paper, Charles de Gaulle is powerful, equipped with fixed-wing carrier-based early warning aircraft E2C, steam catapult, gust M carrier-based aircraft or nuclear-powered aircraft carriers. These combinations make people think that Charles de Gaulle is not big enough, otherwise it will be similar to those super aircraft carriers in the United States, but in fact, if you have this idea, it would be outrageous.

There are only two reactors of Charles de Gaulle, which are reactors used for nuclear submarines. The problem this brings is that Charles de Gaulle is slow. The claimed speed of the twenty-seven knots is actually not reachable at all. It would be fine if it was just slower. However, Charles de Gaulle is an aircraft carrier that takes off. If it is the two aircraft carriers that take off and take off, even if the speed is slower, it is not much. At most, the deck provided by the aircraft carrier is smaller when taking off and landing a carrier-based aircraft is slightly affected by the takeoff and landing of the carrier-based aircraft, but it is not like that on Charles de Gaulle because Charles de Gaulle uses a steam catapult.

Steam catapults require a large amount of steam, and steam is provided by the power system. This is most obvious in Lexington. Lexington is a steam catapult. In battle, Lexington's speed will always change, because the speed changes are still quite large, making Lexington's escort work very difficult. It is also a problem for the glory forces, because Lexington is too strong and can easily become the target of a concentrated fire strike.

The reason for the slow speed of Charles De Gaulle is that the power system is not strong and the catapulting aircraft consumes a lot of steam, which will reduce the speed of the aircraft carrier. Charles De Gaulle's speed is slower, which makes it even slower. There are only two very important fixed-wing early warning aircraft, and the two E2Cs cannot achieve a 24-hour early warning at all, so Charles De Gaulle's power is often really on paper.

Of course, it is impossible for Charles de Gaulle to appear in this world. In history, Charles de Gaulle was the last aircraft carrier to serve in the 20th century. In order to successfully serve, France retired the Clermontsort-class aircraft carrier USS Foch in advance. The USS Foch was sold to Brazil to save money to build Charles de Gaulle because it appeared too late. However, the Clermontsort-class aircraft carrier before Charles de Gaulle is not necessarily the case, because the Clermontsort-class aircraft carrier appeared much earlier than Moscow. In this world, Clermontsort-class aircraft carrier will definitely be particularly powerful.

Of course, Fatty Gao was thinking about the nuclear issue in history, because the era in Moscow was in the Cold War era. The powerful countries in the Cold War era all had nuclear strike capabilities. There was no nuclear strike in this world, but the relevant nuclear weapons were all special weapons in this world. The power of this brought about is that if Clermonsoe appeared, the strike capability of these aircraft carriers was particularly strong. This was a bit worried about Fat Gao, so he introduced it to Venetto and then began to ask the Queen Lexington.

In history, Lexington was definitely in service in the 1990s. As the world's most powerful aircraft carrier, Lexington had a high level of early rank, and it would definitely have nuclear-related strike capabilities.

The Queen was a little surprised why Fatty Gao asked this question, but the Queen still answered Fatty Gao. The Queen was not as familiar with Lexington as Mrs. Lex, but she was also quite familiar with Lexington. The Queen knew that Lexington had special attack methods, and the special attack methods were extremely powerful, but Lexington rarely mentioned this and rarely used it. Even when the glorious forces were very dangerous to fight with the iron-blooded forces, Lexington used very little. The Queen felt that Lexington's special measures should be very expensive. The Queen was also very curious about why Fatty Gao suddenly asked about this.

Facing the Queen's inquiry, Fatty Gao felt a little hesitant because it was obvious that Moscow didn't want to tell the Queen about his special bullet bed. Fatty Gao finally used Moscow and now he had some problems in his mind, especially when the American ship girl Fatty Gao wanted to understand it, but Fatty Gao himself knew that the Queen knew that things were not that simple, but he realized that Fatty Gao didn't want to say that the Queen did not continue to ask.
