Chapter 1972: Resource Issues
Among the four conventional resources, the most expensive is the smallest aluminum resource production. This small output mainly reflects that aluminum is too light. Originally, the resource points for aluminum are fewer, and aluminum is very light, which makes aluminum the most expensive among the four conventional resources. However, general commanders cannot use aluminum, and even if they use aluminum, they don’t have much. Most of the aluminum in this world is used up by aircraft carriers.
Although aluminum resources are expensive, they have nothing to do with most commanders and ordinary people. The similarity to aluminum resources is ammunition resources. Ordinary people have nothing to do with ammunition resources. The production of ammunition resources is relatively large and they cannot be used in normal times. Not only can they be used in battles, but only ship girls can process them. Unless the commander has special abilities, it is too dangerous to process ammunition resources rashly. Of course, this is not a direct danger, because ammunition resources themselves are similar to the TNT explosives that Gao Fatty had traveled through, and are not dangerous in themselves.
Ammunition resources cannot be detonated directly by burning and bombarding, and can only be detonated by using detonators. The detonators in this world are synthesized by the ship girl using four basic resources. They are one of the commanders' channels to earn resources. Of course, the detonators synthesized by the ship girl are different. Generally speaking, the higher the level, the longer the detonators synthesized by the ship girl, the safer it is.
The danger of the world commander synthesizes ammunition resources in the detonation process. This world is different from the world of Gao Fatty. Although it is all detonator detonation explosives, due to the different ammunition resources, the ammunition resources must be adjusted before detonation. If the adjustment is not properly, it will detonate early or be silent, which is quite dangerous.
The ammunition resources in this world are basically played by the ship girl. Whether it is the explosion or shells or torpedoes that need to be used in daily life, they are synthesized by the ship girl themselves. Ammunition resources are rarely used alone because except for a very few special ammunition resource points, most ammunition resources produced by the ammunition resources cannot be synthesized independently. Other resources are required, which makes ammunition resources generally used in combination with the other three resources, because the output is large and they are not used alone, making ammunition resources the cheapest.
The second cheapest is steel resources. The main reason is that the output is large. Steel resources are the largest among the four conventional resources. Of course, they are also the most widely used. Most of the buildings in this world are steel structures, and the steel resources used are very large. However, because the steel resources are produced very large, steel resources are still very cheap. Of course, this is ordinary steel resources.
Special steel resources are very expensive, because special steel resources are not just to strengthen the hull during warship renovation. Special steel resources are widely used in various aspects such as construction of special shells, bombs, missiles and torpedoes. It is also because special steel resources are widely used to make special steel resources the most expensive. Because special steel resources are expensive, many special parts required by buildings are replaced by special aluminum resources. Special aluminum resources are not cheap, but they are still much cheaper than corresponding special steel resources. After all, ammunition and hulls cannot replace special steel resources with special aluminum resources.
There have been many such tragedies in the world of fat people. Of course, aluminum replaces steel mainly because it saves money. You should know that although aluminum is much more expensive than steel, aluminum is lighter. The lighter hull has a much smaller requirement for the power system. The power system is often very expensive, and the power system requires low energy and saves a lot of money. The special steel required by the hull is not much cheaper than aluminum. Aluminum with lighter strength and good strength seems to be a good substitute for steel hull materials.
However, aluminum has a problem with aluminum. Low melting point is the biggest problem with aluminum. Fortunately, ordinary merchant ships have a very big problem with aluminum. The main reason is that after being attacked, aluminum will melt the attacked hull due to the low melting point, causing irreversible damage to the warship. The material of the hull of the Type 42 destroyer built by the UK to save money is also steel. The superstructure uses aluminum. Sheffield sinks mainly because the tail flame of the Feiyu missile ignits the inside of the hull. Because the material of the burning of a lot of money is toxic, the thick smoke caused by the combustion of the material is toxic, and it cannot be effectively damaged. After burning for a few days, the flames went out. When dragged back to the UK for maintenance, it was sunk because the weather was not good and the hull was broken through by the Feiyu missile and sank.
Therefore, although using aluminum can reduce costs when building warships, it is not possible to use a large amount of aluminum. This is even more so in this world. Therefore, special aluminum resources are cheaper than special steel resources, except for some special buildings. Other special steel resources should be used.
The last of the four conventional resources is relatively expensive, because in this world, in addition to combustion as fuel, oil resources have other uses, because there are very large differences between oil resources, including heavy oil and light oil. The products processed by different oil resources are also different. The oil resource processing industry in this world is similar to the petrochemical industry in the high fat world, both are very professional and prosperous. The prosperous oil resource processing industry requires oil resources, and the oil resource processing industry is also the largest and most important consumption of oil resources. Ship girls generally buy initially processed oil resources from these processing industries to process oil products, which are suitable for combustion, lubricating oil and other oil products suitable for combustion, which are suitable for lubricating. Of course, there are some special ship girls, such as the three sisters of Venetto, who have higher requirements for oil products, and the corresponding requirements for initial processing of oil resources are higher.
Of course, aircraft carriers have the highest requirements for oil resources. The aircraft carriers themselves have similar requirements for oil resources than other warships, but the oil resources required by carrier-based aircraft are the most expensive and best oil resources in the world. Of course, carrier-based aircraft with general oil resources can also be fought, but performance is problematic. For carrier-based aircraft, any performance improvement is extremely necessary. Therefore, no commander or aircraft carrier girl will deal with the oil products used by carrier-based aircraft. However, this can be regarded as a change in direction and pushing up the overall price of oil resources.
