MTL - The Age of Giant Ships and Cannons-Chapter 16 Configure battleship (below)

  Chapter 16 Configuring Warships (Part 2)

  General slots have a total of 6 medium-sized slots for M, 8 small-sized slots for S, and 2 functional slots for A slot.

   It is worth mentioning that the destroyer he ordered is not a regular Tornado-class destroyer, but an elite Hurricane-class destroyer, which not only has higher basic attributes than the regular Tornado-class, but also has more slots.

   Correspondingly, there are 150 million regular Tornado-class destroyers and 250 million elite hurricane-class destroyers, which is an extra 100 million star dollars.

  Destroyer (Hurricane class): multi-functional ship, with assault, air defense, escort, patrol, security, reconnaissance and other functions.

Attributes:

  Basic hull: 10000

  Basic Armor: 10000

  Basic Shield: 10000

  Base speed: 140000 km/h

  Default Tactic: Sentinel Tactic.

   Fleet slot size: 2.

  Advanced giant gunship bow module, advanced gunboat stern module.

  Components: energy core, superluminal components, thrusters, detectors, combat computers.

  Weapon slots: L4, M12.

  General slot: M7, S8, A2.

  In fact, he wants the excellent Black Hawk-class destroyer more, but the shipyard does not have any blueprints for this.

   And this is just the beginning of spending money. Next, Li Qing deleted and deleted from the configuration list, and installed several slots for this destroyer.

According to the modification limit of the Hurricane-class destroyer, a total of 15 points of modification value, 2 additional L-sized weapon slots each occupying 6 points of modification value were added. It took 50 million * 2 = 100 million star dollars to directly increase the attack power. , the remaining 3 points of modification value added a M medium-sized general-purpose slot that takes up 3 points of modification value, and it cost 10 million, which was just spent.

  Total cost: 250 million + 100 million + 10 million for the hull, a total of 360 million stars.

  After that, it is the second largest consumption item, the configuration of weapons and general slots.

   It is worth mentioning that his four L large weapon slots are not equipped with conventional large weapons, but L slot main gun weapons.

  In Xinghai, there are four types of weapons: M medium, S small, P slot point defense, and cannon. Each weapon slot is actually two guns, one on each side of the battleship.

  There is only one slot for the X super large slot, the G missile slot, and the T slot doomsday weapon.

   Among them, the large L slot is a bit special, because there are two templates for this large slot, one is a regular template, and one slot is divided into two shots.

  One is the main gun template, which has only one cannon per slot. The main gun equipped with the L large slot is more powerful than a single conventional large weapon, but the price is more expensive.

  The four L large weapons are equipped with advanced kinetic energy railguns, which are more powerful than kinetic energy railguns. Each of them is 50 million, and the four weapons have a total of 200 million stars.

  Advanced Kinetic Energy Railgun: A very advanced kinetic energy artillery that can fire powerful long-range kinetic energy shells.

  Type: Instant, Kinetic.

   Damage: 2800-5000.

  Fire rate: 90 seconds/shot.

  Hit: 90%.

  Range: 1500 kilometers.

  Fix: +50% shield damage.

  Fix: -25% armor damage.

   Then the 12 M medium weapon slots are also equipped with kinetic energy weapons, the fifth-generation electromagnetic gun

  Fifth-generation electromagnetic gun (medium): Long-range anti-matter artillery, which can fire powerful kinetic energy shells at extremely long distances.

  Type: Instant, Kinetic.

   Damage: 500-700.

  Fire rate: 25 seconds/shot.

  Hit: 75%.

   Range: 500 kilometers.

  Fix: +25% shield damage.

  Fix: -50% armor damage.

  The price of the fifth-generation electromagnetic gun (medium-sized) is 10 million for a set of two, and a total of 12 sets cost 120 million.

  After the weapon is configured, the next is the general slot, a total of 7 M medium-sized general-purpose slots, 8 S small general-purpose slots, and 2 A-type functional slots.

  Li Qing thought about it, and two of the seven M medium-sized general-purpose slots are equipped with fifth-generation medium-sized energy shields, each of which increases the value of energy shield by 4000, and automatically regenerates energy by 2 points per second. The other 5 are equipped with fifth-generation neutron armor, each adding 3000 points of armor, and 2 points of armor repair per second.

  The price of both the fifth-generation medium-sized shield and the fifth-generation medium-sized armor is 8.8 million each, and the total of 7 pieces adds up to 61.6 million stars.

  As for the 8 S small universal slots, they are fully equipped with fifth-generation small energy shields, each of which adds 2000 points of energy shield value, and automatically restores 1 point of energy per second.

  The price of the fifth-generation small shield is 2.2 million yuan, and 8 pieces total 17.6 million stars.

The configuration of the two A-type function slots is the same, both are advanced afterburners, the effect is +30% start speed, +30% turn rate, +20% normal flight speed, each price is 20 million, and two are 40 million .

   Directly increase the speed to full.

  Weapons and general slots add up, and it costs 200 million + 120 million + 61.6 million + 17.6 million, a total of 399.2 million.

  In addition to the previous 250 million bare ships plus additional slots, the total is 360 million.

  Li Qing scratched his forehead and couldn't help but smack his lips:

"so expensive!"

  The key point is that the configuration has not yet been completed, and five types of reactors, hyperspace engines, thrusters, sensors, and combat computers need to be purchased.

  The fifth-generation zero-point reactor destroyer version, 12 million stars.

  The destroyer version of the fifth-generation jump engine, the maximum jump range is 50 light years, and the price is 30 million star yuan.

  The fifth-generation phase pulse thruster, speed +60%, start speed +25%, turn rate +25%, price 40 million stars.

  The fifth-generation tachyon sensor destroyer version, the maximum detection range is 100,000 kilometers in diameter, and the price is 16 million.

   The advanced combat system of the destroyer version, hit +10, flight speed +10%, the price is 7.5 million.

  Comprehensively, the total is 105.5 million.

  Including the previous expenditures, a top-equipped destroyer was released, with a total cost of 844.7 million stars.

   "Tsk tsk tsk!"

  The 1.2 billion star dollars I just earned lost more than half of it all at once, which is outrageous.

   This expenditure directly made Li Qing cancel his previous idea of ​​deploying two top-equipped frigates. At this stage, it is fine to equip one frigate, and he is afraid that he will not be able to afford two frigates.

The allocation is barely affordable, and the frigate's expenditure is much less than that of the destroyer. The main reason is that there is not much money left after the allocation. He has to buy a lot of weapons and ammunition. The first batch of crew members, the original dead crew members need to pay a high pension.

   Next, he will have to stay in Jinmen for a while, and go to the Engineering College to learn shipbuilding-related skills, which will cost money.

   There is no need to buy the frigate, just this one. You just need to modify it and add extra slots.

The frigate has only five points of modification value, and there is nothing to consider. Four are installed as S small arms slots that only occupy a point of modification value, and one is added as P slot point defense. There are five in total, one for 5 million, and a total of 2,500 Ten thousand.

  Including the original slots, there are a total of 9 S slots for small arms, 2 P type point defense slots, 5 S small general slots, and 1 A type function slot.

  Weapons are all fifth-generation flame storm machine guns, with a unit price of 2.5 million, and a total of 9 pieces of 22.5 million.

  Fifth-generation flame storm cannon: a large-caliber ballistic weapon that can fire shells at super-high speeds.

  Type: Instant, Kinetic.

   Damage: 50-60.

  Fire rate: 2 seconds/shot.

  Hit: 50%.

   Range: 70 kilometers.

  Fix: +25% shield damage.

  Fix: -50% armor damage.

  Since it is a frigate, its main duty is to intercept the enemy attacking the destroyer in close quarters, so it is natural to use the fastest attacking cannon.

  Slot P is configured with a guardian-level close-in rapid-fire gun, and the unit price is also 2.5 million, two of which are 5 million.

  Guardian-class close-in rapid-fire gun: the last line of defense of the battleship, dedicated to defending against missiles and space fighters.

  Type: Instant, Kinetic.

   Damage: 3-3.

  Fire rate: 12000 rounds/second.

  Hit: 30%.

   Range: 18 kilometers.

  Fix: -75% armor damage.

  Fix: -50% hull damage.

   The universal slot has three shields and two armors, and the price is 2.2 million * 5 = 11 million stars.

  Slot A is equipped with an advanced afterburner, and the unit price of the frigate version is 10 million stars.

   Then the energy core is the fifth-generation zero-point reactor of the frigate version, and the price is 8 million star yuan.

   The frigate version of the fifth-generation leap engine costs 15 million star dollars.

   The frigate version of the fifth-generation phase pulse thruster costs 20 million star dollars.

   The tachyon sensor of the frigate version costs 8 million star yuan.

  The advanced combat system of the frigate version, hit +10, rate of fire +10%, 2.5 million stars.

In summary, after deducting the price of the battleship, it cost a total of 25 million to refit + 22.5 million for 9 fifth-generation flame storm cannons + 5 million for 2 guardian-class close-in defense guns + 11 million for 5 small S-sized general slots + 1000 for advanced afterburners Ten thousand + zero point reactor 8 million + fifth-generation leap engine 15 million + phase pulse thruster 20 million + tachyon sensor 5 million + advanced combat computer 2.5 million.

  A total of 135 million. If the bare boat is added to 20 million, a top-equipped Haiyan-class frigate will cost 155 million.

  155 million plus 844.70, a total of 999.7 million, a total of 1.23 billion star assets, suddenly shrunk to 230.3 million stars.

  According to the price of a top-equipped frigate, if another one is equipped, the remaining 70 to 80 million may seem quite a lot, but it is actually not expensive.

   Spending money to play battleships is like flowing water. Many times, you don’t even know where the money is spent.

  Next, Li Qing went to the crew union and handed over the compensation money of the dead crew members.

   Senior crew pensions are 2 million yuan, and frigate captains are 5 million yuan.

  A frigate had 3 senior crew members. Fortunately, there was no captain. In the end, he paid a full 6 million pension.

  “.”

   Fortunately, the new ship has just been ordered, and the salary of the frigate is not too much, so it can still be carried.

   But when the destroyer is launched and the crew is in place, he will have to leave Jinmen early to make money.

  Leaving Yu's Shipyard, Li Qing first went to Jinmen No. 3 Space Habitat Station to rent an apartment, and then he will stay in Jinmen for at least half a year, without a place to live.

  Use a personal terminal to open the network of the School of Engineering, and sign up for a series of shipbuilding-related courses online, both online and offline, with a total of tens of millions of stars.

  After that, there are intense courses that are as tight as the college entrance examination.

He has registered too much, including a series of courses related to shipbuilding. There are more than 30 courses in total, and there are four or five classes almost every day. Every day is not only a class, but also a class. He frantically absorbs the knowledge of various subjects, and ten times the experience is strengthened. The large innate attribute bonus makes his one class equivalent to dozens of other people's classes, and the speed of skill improvement is very fast.

  Li Qing estimated that according to this improvement speed, after completing all the courses, he can try to build frigates by himself.

   At that time, recruit a group of shipbuilding engineers, with the assistance of a few senior engineers, and almost directly build frigates.

  Selling ships is more profitable than mining, and arms are huge profits at any time.

  A naked frigate costs 20 million, even if it only earns 10%, it can still earn 2 million, but in fact, how can it be possible to earn only 10%.

  By understanding, the price of a warship consists of three aspects.

   Drawings account for 10%, materials account for 50% to 60%, and if there is no stable material supply channel, it will account for 60%. If there is a stable material supply channel, if there is a relationship, you can get the material at a price lower than the market price.

   Then normally, the salary of the shipyard and the salary of the shipbuilding engineer add up to about 15% or so.

   Then there is the channel fee, which is hard to say.

  If the shipyard sells directly, naturally there is no channel fee, but some merchants cooperate with the shipyard, get the ship from the shipyard at a low price and resell it, and the middleman must earn some money.

  So, for the sale of ships built by normal shipyards, those with stable supply channels can make about 20% to 30% of the profit, and no more than 30% at most.

   This ratio is not large, but it is not as expensive as a boat. Thirty percent of 20 million, that is 6 million.

  One frigate is 6 million, and 100 frigates are 600 million.

  The construction time of a frigate is 60 days. Generally, a large shipyard can build hundreds or even thousands of frigates in a batch. The income of five or six billion in two months is quite good.

  It is worth mentioning that the construction capacity of these large shipyards can range from hundreds to thousands, which is different from the shipyards in Li Qing's Gaowei Fortress.

The shipyard in the high-dimensional fortress in his hands is called the superstructure assembly base to be precise. It is a whole shipyard, which can simultaneously build tens of thousands of frigates with a naval capacity of only one square, or build a naval capacity of more than one thousand squares. Titan super flagship.

  The docks of ordinary large shipyards are just ordinary docks combined, which can build thousands of frigates and destroyers at the same time, but they cannot build flagships that occupy a large dock capacity.

   To put it bluntly, the 2300 construction capacity of the superstructure assembly base in his hands is a whole.

On the other hand, the thousands of construction capacities in ordinary shipyards are composed of countless construction capacities of only a dozen or dozens. That is to say, the maximum construction capacity of a single ship is only a dozen or so, and the maximum construction capacity of a naval ship is 20 battleships. It is impossible to build a flagship with a naval capacity of several hundred tiles.

   Moreover, Li Qing, the shipyard of the superstructure assembly base, has an attribute that increases the speed of shipbuilding by 100%.

  It means that the construction time of a normal frigate is 60 days, but this superstructure assembly base can be built in only 30 days, and the time has been reduced by half.

   And only need 1 Chief Engineer, 2 Senior Shipbuilding Engineers and 30 General Engineers to build.

  This superstructure assembly base now has a dock capacity of 2,300, and theoretically requires 2,300 senior naval architects and 69,000 ordinary engineers to fully operate.

   And this is just to build frigates. If destroyers, cruisers, and battleships are rebuilt, ordinary engineers can be used in common, but a large number of matching senior shipbuilders are still needed.

  The shipyard that is still intact is only a part of this superstructure assembly base. The total dock capacity in its intact state is over 100 million. In the peak state, up to 100 million frigates can be built every month. It is outrageous to think about it.

   But considering that the size of this thing needs to be measured in astronomical units, the power furnace is a galaxy like the Milky Way, so it is not outrageous to think about it.
