Mankind's desire to conquer the sea would never stop, but whether it was burning oil or coal, a warship without supplies would become a piece of scrap metal. The amount of resources it could carry was limited, so the distance a warship could travel to the ocean was also limited.
When the time came to the 1950s, with the development and utilization of nuclear energy, people were surprised to discover that this inexhaustible " infinite " energy was simply the best partner for warships.
Under the influence of the dark clouds of war during the Cold War, nuclear power was quickly moved to ships. The Federal Navy soon built the first next-powered warship in history, the Nautilus nuclear submarine.
The Red Navy, unwilling to fall behind, immediately retaliated and built a nuclear submarine. They also built a nuclear icebreaker. The bears thought that they had taken the lead in nuclear warships and slightly relaxed their vigilance.
However…Only two years had passed.
Brother Nan stood on an unknown sea. Beside him was a Red Navy warship of an unknown model. The deck was filled with human admirals.
The group of humans looked around with binoculars and kept talking and exclaiming. Brother Nan was very curious and jumped onto the deck to watch.
As far as the eye could see, three battleships belonging to the federal navy were sailing without restraint. Two of the bridges were designed as large white squares, and their skulls were very square.
They were the 'I'm Good Fang' fleet, oh no…It was the First Task Force.
Long Beach, Enterprise, and Bainbridge.
The three warships formed an all-nuclear fleet and traveled along the route that the Big Bai Fleet had taken in the past. During the sixty-five-day voyage that covered thirty thousand miles, they did not rely on any external supplies.
Gradually, the three American warships went far away, and the human admiral beside Brother Nan put down his binoculars.
"The gap is too big. Our Red Navy wants to build such a mighty ship lady!”Admiral A said.
" But our nuclear reactor is not mature enough. There will always be accidents…" Inspector B frowned, feeling very uncomfortable.
Admiral A placed his hands on his hips and was unable to say a word for a long time. He just stared blankly at the surface of the sea, at the turbulent sea.
Technology could always be recovered. The biggest difficulty the Red Navy was facing now was actually…
The investor of the Red Navy, the CEO of the Hammer and Sickle Alliance, who liked corn, was extremely respectful of nuclear submarines and missiles, but he was disdainful of large surface warships, calling them useless iron coffins.
The corn CEO was the first and the biggest obstacle to prevent Funa from being born.
Fortunately, it did not take too long. The new CEO took office and the old person in charge left. The Red Navy could finally carry out its own large-scale construction plan.
Brother Chennan realized that the scene had changed in the blink of an eye. She came to a big, warm room. The tables around her were filled with drawing tools. A large group of human engineers surrounded a human admiral. The calendar showed 1965.
He walked to the edge of the crowd and looked inside. Brother Nan found that this human admiral had a great background. He was the commander of the Red Navy, Gorshkov. Later, many ship ladies were named after him, which was enough to show how powerful he was.
Gorshkov took out a document and said excitedly,""The new CEO has already agreed to our large-scale construction plan. Project code 1144, you can start research and development.”
The excited human engineers took out a bunch of blueprints. In fact, they had already developed it in private and were waiting for the official documents.
A group of humans left the building noisily with a large number of briefcases and ship equipment. Brother Nan quickly followed behind.
When he walked out and looked back, he saw the words " Northern Design Bureau " written on the door. Yes, this was a legendary warship factory.
The humans came to the starship girls 'kindergarten next door. Brother Chennan saw many children running around inside. They were all illusions of the soul core. After the design and construction, they would grow up to become real starship girls.
"Funa!" Brother Chennan ran to a little girl with short gray hair and wanted to hug her happily because she was too cute.
She was 1.2 meters tall and had a tender face. Even though she was in kindergarten, she was much taller than the other children.
Unfortunately…Chennan was just a ghost now. She couldn't do anything to change history. Little Funa ignored her and continued to play with other children.
The group of human engineers looked around and picked out the tallest and healthiest little girl in the kindergarten. It was a face that Brother Chennan did not recognize. Perhaps it was Funa's sister, the first ship, the Kirov?
The engineers entered a number on the operating instrument and set the little girl to be a ship lady with a displacement of 8,000 tons.
"Child, try this on your back." A human engineer handed over something.
It was a vertical launcher. The little girl easily carried the ship's suit that was twice the size of her body.
The engineer nodded and took out the nuclear reactor again, but this time, the little girl couldn't carry it.
"Shuai Ge, it seems like the 8,000-ton design won't work. Our nuclear reactor can't be made smaller.”
Gorshkov was a little conflicted. The higher-ups did not give him much funding…However, nuclear warships had to be built, so they had to pay more!
Thus, the little girl's value soared from 8,000 tons to 12,000 tons, then to 18,000 tons, and finally to 23,500 tons.
Brother Chennan couldn't help but laugh out loud. Fortunately, she was a ghost and wouldn't attract anyone's attention.
The scene in front of them reminded them of a saying: Put 3,000 into the card and add it to 98,000.
The little girl who was surrounded by the engineers was also confused. Her teacher had told her that it would become a nuclear anti-submarine destroyer in the future. Why did these engineers change their minds?
First, it became a large anti-submarine destroyer, then an anti-submarine cruiser, and finally a heavy nuclear missile cruiser.
She had originally planned to become an 8,000-ton warship, but in the end, it had become a steel behemoth that weighed more than 20,000 tons. The little girl's heart could not bear it.
Gorshkov took out the document. The original budget was to build 24 ships, but now... He estimated that twelve ships would be enough. It was a little expensive.
Therefore, the kindergarten teacher…
F * ck! Brother Chennan was extremely shocked. The teacher of this kindergarten was actually Avril…
Avrora blew her whistle and gathered all the little girls in the kindergarten. She picked out the tallest twelve of them.
"Teacher, teacher! Can we really be the big sister of 20,000 tons?”Funa asked carefully.
Smiling, Avrora gently stroked her forehead and pointed at the sea in the distance.
" Be more confident. Every ship maiden of our fighting race has the tenacious will of steel and the strong heart of a brown bear.”
"A new war may break out in the future. If you want to become the light that breaks through the darkness, you must believe in your own strength.”
"Bear rules the four seas, flag stands in the five seas, this is your mission.”
Funa was still young and didn't quite understand what her teacher said, but she still remembered it and planned to understand it when she grew up.
————————————
In 1973, Project 1144 completed its design and began the construction of the first ship, the Kirov. The Red Navy planned to build 12 nuclear powered steel beasts in succession. After the first ship was launched, one would be completed every four years.
Brother Chennan stood at the side and finished reading the document in Gorshkov's hand. He searched his memories. If he remembered correctly…
Only four Type 1144 ships were built, and the remaining eight could not be built due to unforeseen circumstances.
He looked at Funa, who was ranked fourth in the queue. She was the lucky one who was the last to be completed. The children behind Funa were in a very miserable state.
This was because after the collapse of the Red Alliance, there was no longer any research and development of large warships. The largest warships were frigates, and most of them were small boats.
The eight children behind Funa had thought that they would become big sisters that weighed more than 20,000 tons, but in the end, they became frigates that weighed three to five thousand tons, and even missile boats that weighed hundreds of tons.
How tragic was this…
