Chapter VIII Nagato-class battleships

"Are you Japanese? Do you have your own name?" It's not that Chen Shao was surprised, because the previous biochemical people had no names except James. James was a perfect level, is this person also a perfect level? If it was a perfect level, it wouldn't be a big profit. And this name made Chen Shao feel very familiar.

"Report to the commander, what is the nationality of the commander? What is the nationality of me? And as a perfect warship designer, how could he not have his own name?"

Wait, Fukuda Keiji, the warship designer, suddenly Chen Shao slapped his head and shouted: "My god, Yamato-class battleship, the pinnacle of the battleship."

"Reporting to the Chief, what Yamato class, what kind of warship is that? It can be called the pinnacle of warships?" Fukuda Keiji asked with a confused look on his face

"Don't you know Yamato?" Chen Shao couldn't help asking again when he saw that he seemed to really not know.

"Report to Chief, Yamato-class, I really don't know when the new warship will come out?" Fukuda Keiji's face became even more confused

Seeing Kiji Fukuda's appearance, Chen Shao thought that it was only 1914 now. When Japan built the Yamato class, it was in 1937, and there were still 23 years left before now. When thinking about the Yamato class data, Chen Shao wanted this warship to appear directly in the shipyard. It was not moving, and it looked comfortable to see!

However, even if I give the Yamato-grade design drawings now, it is useless. If I don’t have qualified steel and technical workers, I will still be moldy if I put them there.

"Fuda Kiji, from now on, you will be called Chen Fu. From today on, you will be a real Chinese."

"Report to the chief, yes, my name will be Chen Fu from now on, and I am a real Chinese." Fukuda Kiyr replied indifferently. He didn't care what his name was, as long as he could follow the commander.

Chen Shao patted his shoulder, took out a set of clothes for him to put them on. Since the clothing factory started producing clothing, a lot of clothes have been prepared here.

"Chen Fu, you can design those warships,"

"Report to the sir, I have complete construction drawings for Nagato-class battleships, and I am now designing an absolutely invincible battleship, but it has not been named yet, and its displacement is expected to be twice that of Nagato-class."

After hearing this, Chen Shao had already confirmed that the Yamato-class in the later generations was designed by Chen Fu, because the displacement of the Yamato-class was nearly twice that of the Nagato-class. Although he didn't know if the Nagato-class was designed by him, he did not design it himself if there were drawings. What's more, the first Nagato-class in Japan was built in 1917. Now the Japanese probably hadn't even started designing it. At that time, when the Japanese started to build it, he would go to Europe to sell the Nagato-class. In 1917, the world war was very lively, and the Nagato-class at that time was definitely the top battleship.

Battleships are also called main ships and combat ships. They are large-caliber naval guns as their main weapon, with strong armor protection and assault power, and can fight in the ocean. They are also called combat ships. In naval battles, multiple ships are usually arranged in single columns to conduct artillery battles, hence the name. Early battleships were also called iron-clad ships or armored ships. The name of the battleships emerged with the changes in naval tactics during the British-Dutch War from 1655 to 1667. At that time, the most powerful warships did not engage in side combat, but lined up battleships in a line of columns, traveled parallel to the enemy fleet, and used the side cannons on one side of the fleet to concentrate firepower on the enemy.

Hence the name "battleship". The British ship "Sea Kings" built in 1638 was the first of such warships. It had three layers of gun decks and 102 artillery pieces. The battleships at that time were all wooden sailboats. In 1849, France built the world's first battleship "Napoleon" with a steam engine as the main power unit. It was equipped with 100 steam battleships in the era of 100 steam battleships. But it still had sails as auxiliary power. In 1861, the first British iron-shell armored battleship "Warrior" also had auxiliary sails. The sails on the warship gradually disappeared 20 years after they reached the end. In 1862, France built the first ship equipped with

The battleship "Prince Albert" with a rotating turret was outdated in any direction, so the name of the ship loading was replaced by the battleship for a period of time. In 1906, the largest and most powerful armored ship in the world built by Britain was launched and the name of the battleship was restored. The "Dreadnought" was designed and supervised by Colonel Kunibedi, a famous Italian engineer. It has a displacement of 17,900 tons and a speed of 40 kilometers per hour. It is equipped with 10 305mm main guns, 24 76mm secondary guns, and an underwater torpedo launching equipment seat. This is better than the other largest armored ships at that time.

The firepower was more than one times stronger, and the armor of the two sides, turrets and command towers reached 280 mm. Since then, various naval powers have followed the "Default" to build their own battleships. Before the 1930s, the "Default" ship was synonymous with battleships, and the number of battleships has also become the standard for measuring the strength of a country's naval strength. The last battleship in the world was launched at the end of World War II. During this period, the displacement, speed, main gun caliber, armor thickness and other performance of the battleships were greatly improved. Among the hundreds of battleships built successively, all inherited the basic form laid by the "Default".

"When will your warship be designed?"

"Report to the Chief, not sure."

"Then do you design civilian ships? Battleships or submarines like other destroyers cruisers?" Chen Shao didn't want this perfect class warship designer to only design battleships.

"Report to the sir, no problem. What type of warship is the sir?"

"No rush now, you go and rest first. I will arrange a place for you in the combat laboratory tomorrow. Then you can draw all the battleship drawings you know." Chen Shao is really not in a hurry. It's useless to be anxious. There is no worker, and it's useless to be anxious.

"Report to Chief. Yes."

Watching Chen Fu slowly walk towards the barracks, Chen Shao asked a security team member who was patrolling for the evening to arrange a place for him to live. After settling down, he walked into the base.
