The situation of heavy cruisers in this world is similar to that of Gao Fatty's previous world. In the final analysis, it still comes down to those few problems. The resources required for transformation are very high, especially the transformation of the power system. The number of cores required is astronomical, and it is no more than what a battleship requires.

There are fewer cores, but fortunately, the situation in this world is different from the world before Gao Fatty. Armored cores are the most expensive in this world. Power cores are relatively not that expensive, but this is not expensive compared to armored cores. Compared with

The firepower core is still quite expensive.

What is somewhat different from history is that heavy cruisers in this world still have their own positioning, because fighting in this world is not just about fighting warships of hostile forces. In fact, fighting against warships of hostile forces has not been the case in these hundreds of years.

The main melody, the real main theme is fighting monsters, and heavy cruisers still have a lot of room to play when fighting monsters.

Heavy cruisers can still be very effective in fighting monsters with their reasonably good armor, strong vitality, and reasonable speed. The number of battleships in this world is not large, and they require more commanders.

There are even fewer tall aircraft carriers. Under such circumstances, heavy cruisers have a lot of room to play. Commanders in this world generally call heavy cruisers small battleships.

However, heavy cruisers certainly have room for their own performance, but the shortcomings and weaknesses of heavy cruisers are obvious no matter what. Calling them a small battleship means they are not as good as a battleship. In fact, a heavy cruiser is far from a battleship. It does not have the protection and firepower of a battleship.

, there is no advantage in speed, and the artillery range is not as far as that of a battleship. More importantly, the combat consumption is only slightly less than that of a battleship, especially the consumption of oil resources. The consumption of oil resources of a heavy cruiser is not much less than that of a battleship. You must know that in

Oil resources in the world are the second most expensive resource after aluminum resources.

Oil resources are somewhat different from the other three resources. The output of oil resources is quite large, ranking second only to steel resources. However, like steel resources, oil resources can be used by ordinary people and commanders in addition to warships.

It can be used. Most commanders use oil resources when cooking and heating. Of course, compared to the oil resources used by battleships by ton, ordinary people and commanders use much less oil resources. However,

Although an ordinary person or commander uses less, it adds up to a lot.

The output of oil resources is not as large as that of steel resources. Although the output of ammunition resources is less, except for battleship operations and modifications, the resources cannot be used in daily life. In this way, oil resources are not used in ordinary people's lives.

It has become the second largest item of unexpected expenditures after fresh water. After all, the world is composed of islands, plants are relatively rare and well protected, and the price of burning wood is very high. In this way, in addition to oil resources, ordinary people's daily life

There is nothing left to ignite, which pushes up the price of oil resources.

The daily life of ordinary people and commanders is fine. They don’t use much oil resources. One unit of oil resources can be used for a long time. But this is not the case for battleships. Battleships need massive amounts of oil resources to go to sea.

Especially aircraft carriers, because aircraft carriers not only need oil resources for themselves, but also for carrier-based aircraft. The oil resources needed for carrier-based aircraft also need to be converted by the aircraft carrier itself. Among these battleships, heavy cruisers require similar oil resources to battleships.

This brings up a problem.

The low cost performance of the heavy cruiser largely comes from this. It consumes similar oil resources as a battleship, but its combat effectiveness is far less powerful than the battleship. In addition, the astronomical number of power cores required for transformation is the source of the low cost performance of the heavy cruiser.

Fatty Gao thought for a long time and felt that as a heavy cruiser, anti-ship capability is the most important. Heavy cruisers are not light cruisers and destroyers. There is no need to fight with other battleships or monsters with bayonets. Heavy cruisers still mainly rely on naval guns to deal with enemies, so Fatty Gao thinks

No matter how much you focus on transforming naval guns, there is no problem. Heavy cruisers are different from light cruisers or destroyers. There are not so many paths to choose from. Most heavy cruisers are focused on strengthening air defense or strengthening main guns. Gao Fatty feels that the emphasis is on

Just strengthen the main gun.

In fact, Gui Feifei has the answer in her heart, and for her, even if the heavy cruiser is fully developed, it will still take some time before she can come into contact with this aspect. In fact, Fatty Gao is not very clear about the transformation of heavy cruisers in this world. The comprehensive development of heavy cruisers

The lack of comprehensive development lies in the power system. Because the modification of the heavy cruiser's power system consumes too many resources, many commanders do not modify the power system during the modification. In this way, a large amount of resources can be saved for other aspects. This is also

The reason why there is such a big difference in combat effectiveness in the early stages of key transformation and comprehensive transformation.

Now that a comprehensive transformation has been decided in the future, the transformation of the power system must be carried out. In this way, the resources consumed by revamping the main gun or adding a new small-caliber anti-aircraft gun are much less than the resources consumed by the transformation of the power system.

, so it doesn’t matter which gun to modify first, and for Gui Feifei, her two heavy cruisers were modified too quickly in the early stage and the foundation was unstable. There is no rush to modify them now, otherwise their future strength will be limited to 3A battleships.

Above, Royal Oak has made it clear that the 3A battleship is not strong enough to carry out missions with the future Royal Oak.

What Gui Feifei is actually most concerned about is the destroyer she just built not long ago. The future of destroyers is very different. There are destroyers that are about the same strength as ordinary S-class historical battleships and there are also a large number of destroyers that are of little use. Gui Feifei is most concerned about it.

In this regard, although her destroyer was built with purple qualifications when it was first built, this does not mean that the future of this destroyer will be bright. There are many examples of destroyers with purple qualifications that were built but later achieved very low results. In the case of the just forces,

It is said that there are a lot of them. There are many purple destroyers here because of problems caused by the transformation that will affect the future development of the destroyers, so Gui Feifei wants to know what Fatty Gao thinks about her purple destroyers.

Fatty Gao didn't dare to give any opinions on the issue of destroyers. There are many ways for destroyers, and their future achievements are also very different. Fatty Gao didn't dare to give this opinion easily. He just recommended to Gui Feifei that her destroyers should be Royal Oak and
