"Your Excellency, the UVII submarine will be the main force of the Imperial Navy's submarine force. The major shipyards had already received orders from the Navy and began to build this submarine. Currently, there were already 36 UVII submarines under construction on the berth.”Admiral Ryder said.
Hess nodded. He remembered that in another time and space, the Third Reich had built 688 UVII submarines.
The actual combat proved that this was undoubtedly a very good performance, or rather, a very practical submarine.
This submarine had also caused heavy losses to the enemy in the Atlantic Ocean.
In this time and space, the Third Reich would also vigorously build this submarine.
Of course, further improvements would be made on this basis to build more powerful submarines. If they could build a submarine with an AIP system, that would naturally be the best.
In that case, the submarine would be able to stay underwater for a long time, and its speed would be further improved. Such a submarine was a true underwater killer. Unlike the current submarines, which could only sail on the surface most of the time and could only dive underwater for a short period of time during combat.
"General Doenitz, what about the tactical drills of the submarine?”Hess asked.
"Your Excellency, the submarine force has already begun to use the wolf pack tactic you proposed during the exercise. It was proven that this was a tactic that was very suitable for the submarine force. Once the Empire's submarine force grows, we will be able to use the wolf pack tactic on a large scale in the Atlantic Ocean. This is definitely a disaster for our enemies!”Lieutenant General Doenitz was very excited.
The wolf pack tactic was indeed very suitable for submarines. Once several or even more than ten submarines formed a wolf pack on the ocean, it would pose a huge threat to the enemy.
Once the Third Reich's submarine force appeared on the Atlantic Ocean in large numbers, the Empire of the Sun Never Sets would have a headache. Once the sea transportation route was cut off, the powerful Empire of the Sun Never Sets would become very fragile.
After Hess and Lieutenant General Dunitz discussed some things that the submarine force needed to pay attention to in the future, they continued to visit the shipyard.
In the shipyard, a large number of warships were being built.
The most eye-catching thing was undoubtedly the aircraft carrier that was slowly taking shape on the huge berth.
Hess and the others also arrived at the berth.
In another dimension, the Third Reich Navy's Qibolin-class aircraft carrier was not completed. Only 85% of the construction was completed, and it had to be stopped because of lack of resources.
At that time, the Third Reich was short of resources. The army, navy, and air force all needed a lot of resources. The army's Tiger tanks, Leopard tanks, various assault cannons, armored vehicles, and so on all required a large amount of steel.
The large number of fighter jets and anti-air cannons in the air force also required a large amount of resources.
The navy was also a huge resource consumer. This was especially true for large surface warships. H-class battleships, each with a displacement of more than 55,000 tons. The Bismarck-class battleship also had a displacement of more than 40,000 tons. If they were to add a fleet of battlecruisers and pocket battleships, they would need to consume even more resources.
However, in this space-time, Hess cut off the construction plans for battleships, battlecruisers, and pocket battleships, and used all the resources on submarines, aircraft carriers, and escort warships for aircraft carriers.
In that case, even if they still faced the problem of resource shortage, they would still be able to survive.
However, with the strength of the Third Reich, completing the 12 aircraft carriers in Plan X should not be a problem.
Moreover, these 12 aircraft carriers were not built in one go. Only four ships were built in the first batch. After these four ships were completed, the construction of the subsequent eight ships would begin.
At that time, the Third Reich might have already won an overwhelming victory on the European continent and could use more resources.
"Mr. Governor, this is the first ship of the Qibolin-class aircraft carrier, the Qibolin-class. The other three ships were built in other shipyards. However, we don't have the experience to build an aircraft carrier. In fact, it had been more than ten years since a large surface warship had been built. Therefore, the construction progress was very slow. It was estimated that it would take three years to complete the construction.”Admiral Ryder said.
Hess nodded. Although three years was not a short time, it was still acceptable.
The Third Reich's current shipbuilding capabilities were naturally incomparable to Yingchan's.
As the Third Reich's strength continued to grow, and even after it integrated the entire Europe in the future, this would allow the Third Reich to have even more powerful industrial strength. In fact, it would not be any worse than the Eaglesauce Nation.
Hess looked at the aircraft carrier Qi Bolin on the berth with a burning gaze. This was the hope of the Third Reich's navy revival!
