Chapter 2687 The study of the two ships
General Belgrano's main purpose of coming to visit was to find Moscow to study missiles, because General Belgrano had studied it carefully for a long time and found that he could not deal with this flying monster no matter what. General Belgrano was not sure where his missile was wrong, so he found Moscow, because she also saw the situation where Moscow missiles hit the flying monster on the battlefield.
In fact, General Belgrano also vaguely guessed something wrong with his Haimao air missile, but she didn't want to face it, because once she admitted that the Haimao air missile would require large-scale adjustments. General Belgrano couldn't accept it. This time she looked for Fatty Gao to see if Moscow could solve her problem.
After carefully studying the Haimao ship-to-air missile, Moscow felt that there were solutions but not ideal. Moscow felt that General Belgrano had only two points to solve this problem, because this is the case for Haimao ship-to-air missiles. To solve it, it was nothing more than sacrificing the range-to-reinforcement speed again. However, the initial speed of Haimao ship-to-air missiles was not very fast. Moscow felt that General Belgrano could do some work on the missile propulsion system. In this regard, Moscow did not hide his own Sam3 air defense missiles and gave them to General Belgrano for a batch of research. Of course, General Belgrano also gave a batch of Haimao ship-to-air missiles to Moscow.
However, the two ship girls still had a serious exchange with each other. Moscow found that General Belgrano's positioning of the missile was completely different from himself. Moscow's current understanding of air defense missiles is the same as in history. Sam3 air defense missiles are used for self-defense, and Moscow does not mean to increase Sam3 air defense missiles. Moscow plans to transform Sam3 air defense missiles in the future, mainly increasing the speed while maintaining the current range. This can increase the air defense effect, not only by mentioning it can also increase the air defense range, because the air defense distance and power air defense distance of the air defense missile are different. Moscow thinks that General Belgrano's method is a big problem.
Moscow has always felt that regional air defense is not a job of artillery at all, and the air defense missiles used for self-defense are not used for regional air defense at all. The transformation of the world can only improve and cannot fundamentally change the original problem. The price of regional air defense missiles is much more expensive than the point air defense missiles used for self-defense. There is naturally a reason to be expensive if so much is expensive. Both she and General Belgrano are not regional air defense missiles. There is no need to pursue air defense distance so much. In comparison, air defense efficiency is more important.
As a warship that served in the 1970s in history, Moscow knew what the British regional air defense missile was. In history, the British regional air defense missile was a sea wolf in the 1970s and 1980s. Moscow felt that General Belgrano was able to increase the rate of fire as much as possible based on the original Seamax air missiles. They were not regional air defense warships and there was no need to pursue the effect of regional air defense.
Before Gao Fatty's crossing, the destroyers that carried out regional air defense were extremely expensive. These destroyers were collectively called shield ships. The price of a Burke-class destroyer in the United States was more than one billion or even billions of dollars. You should know that an American-class amphibious assault ship was only 3 billion US dollars. The shield ships of Gao Fatty's motherland were generally similar and they were particularly expensive.
The main things that shield ships are expensive are two places. One is the system. The most core of the shield ship is the system. This is an integrated combat system that integrates air defense, anti-ship and anti-submarine combat system. This system is the most expensive. The other is radar. The shield ships generally use phased array radars. The large-area phased array radars on all sides are extremely expensive. In fact, the price of this kind of air defense radar is very expensive. The expensive shield ships are of course not cheap. Of course, the price of long-range air defense missiles equipped by a single air defense missile seems to be very cheap than the radar system. However, the long-range air defense missiles equipped by a shield ship all started with dozens of long-range air defense missiles, which is also a huge expense. So later, the Type 45 destroyer air defense missiles that the Royal Navy of the British service were not fully equipped.
Although Moscow was a warship in the 1970s due to naval strategy, the Soviet Union did not have shield ships like the United States, but there were still warships that performed regional air defense missions. Whether it was the Glorious Class cruiser or the Kirov Class nuclear-powered cruiser, the regional air defense capabilities were strong. Moscow also knew the prices of these warships. Moscow felt that like General Belgrano, there was no such ability at all, and it was necessary to force it to own it, because the threshold for regional air defense capabilities was extremely high.
General Belgrano was obviously convinced by Moscow because she knew that Moscow was a very late warship in history. It makes sense for Moscow to evaluate this. However, what Moscow said is correct. The Haimao air missile is adjusted based on the current basis. Of course, the most favorable evidence for Moscow to persuade General Belgrano was actually her hull. Moscow has always called herself an anti-submarine cruiser. At most, sometimes boasted that she was an aircraft carrier cruiser. Moscow's main task was anti-submarine. Moscow's anti-submarine equipment and anti-submarine capabilities General Belgrano witnessed in the exchange that Moscow used himself to explain the situation to General Belgrano, because a large ship with nearly 20,000 tons of main tasks are anti-submarine, and air defense is just self-defense. Moscow asked General Belgrano to think about what the warships that would perform regional air defense missions would look like.
After returning from Gao Fatty, General Belgrano changed a lot, because he was the SS-class historical warship General Belgrano's adjustments were much easier than Moscow. After all, General Belgrano's level is very high and he is an old historical warship. He has a lot of resources on hand because she clearly knows that her special capital is the Haimao air missile.
