The biggest weapon of an aircraft carrier was the aircraft on it.
Secondly, the rest of the cruisers, destroyer, frigate, and submarine were like soldiers protecting the emperor.
Therefore, the most scientific way of equipping an aircraft carrier was to equip it with weapons that were defensive systems. Moreover, there were not many of them and they were not strong, just like the pistols that generals carried.
As for the bear-type aircraft carriers, they were used as large cruisers. They were equipped with all kinds of heavy anti-ship and anti-air missiles on the deck, limiting the number of aircraft carried on the carrier. The losses outweighed the gains.
Liu Wu walked out of the island and walked to the deck to check the situation.
"Red Rose, how many anti-ship missiles do you think we should install on the second deck of the bridge?”
" The defense system on the Ford aircraft carrier is divided into three layers. The outermost layer is equipped with two four-seater units, a total of eight 'Sea Sparrows' to intercept anti-ship missiles about 20 kilometers away.”
"The middle layer is two Ram air defense missile systems that intercept anti-ship missiles nine kilometers away.”
Liu Wu continued,"I know about the last layer. It's the famous concentrated close-range artillery. Ford seems to have installed two 20mm six-barreled artillery. The firing rate is also 4500 rounds per minute. It's the same as the multi-purpose close-range artillery on our 022.”
"Master, the cannons on 022 have been optimized by the system. We're cheating." Phalanx was the only close-range defense weapon system in the world that could automatically search, detect, evaluate, track, and attack targets. It was very powerful.”
"Alright, then how many do you want to install?”Liu Wu said helplessly," You should know that my system is still at the beginner level. There are certain restrictions on the exchange of certain items.”
" For example, in the current world, the most advanced fighter jets can't be exchanged, nor can ships of more than 10,000 tons, nuclear submarines, and other weapons. I need to accumulate more than 10 billion points to upgrade to an intermediate system. I'm only short of 2.1 billion.”
" Second or third generation carrier-based aircraft, such as the Batoid fighter jet that can take off, the Panda, the Bumblebee, and other fighter jets, can be exchanged, but I would rather eat a mouthful of peaches than a basket of rotten almonds. This kind of trash fighter jet is simply polluting my aircraft carrier.”
"So, Master, you mean that even if we have more close-range defense weapons, we don't want trash fighter jets?" Red Rose laughed.”
"Yes! In a few more days, I'll be able to level up and exchange for weapons and equipment.”
Red Rose looked at the design that appeared again and suddenly smiled."Master, you've actually overlooked a problem.”
"What?" Liu Wu asked in surprise.
"Our aircraft carrier has a load capacity of more than 30,000 tons. Our size and area are larger, so of course, our capacity is also larger! Therefore, Ford can only be stingy and install a few close-range defense systems, but we can install a lot!”
" Master, look. The curved interior space below the two sides of the ship is much larger than the Ford. It can be modified to accommodate various types of defense systems!”
As Red Rose spoke, she stretched out her finger and pointed at the area below the deck on both sides of the ship."Look, these two sides can be modified into a flexible state. Usually, the defensive weapons can be stored in the hull. And during the war, all kinds of weapons were stretched out!”
Liu Wu was overjoyed when he heard that. He said,""Very bold idea, very good! Our aircraft carrier is 360 meters long, and the sides of the ship add up to more than 700 meters. Every 10 meters, we can install a defense system. It's enough to fit 70 sets!”
"Yes! Just like that, he had 20 sets of radar systems for long range, medium range, and near range, as well as 10 sets of radar systems!”
Seeing that Liu Wu was so excited that he was about to exchange for it, White Snow, who had been quietly listening to his conversation with Rose, shook his hand and reminded him,"Master, I think it's not good to install too many defense systems. It's a waste of space.”
"Then what's the use of the saved space?”Liu Wu was puzzled.
White Snow smiled." Have you forgotten? The Ford aircraft carrier is also said to be equipped with future weapons. Electromagnetic railguns, high-energy lasers, and high-energy rays, especially the electromagnetic railguns. It is said that they have made great progress.”
"In this regard, the Dragon Country is not lagging behind. How can we let this go?”
"Yes!" Liu Wu suddenly understood. He had been too excited previously and had not thought of this. Hmm, ten sets each then, leaving 40 spots for future weapons.”
"Mm, that's for the best." Red Rose nodded and smiled.
"System, exchange for 10 Sea Sparrows, 10 Ram, and 10 Dense Array! Also, use your points to reach the current limit of optimization!”
Ding! Deducting 787 tons of raw materials and 30 million points, exchanging and upgrading 10 Sea Sparrows, 10 Ram, and 10 Phalanx System. Deducting 700 tons of raw materials and 70 million points, modifying the shipboard platforms on both sides, as well as the expansion platform and storage space.
The system's voice rang out continuously, and defensive weapon systems appeared one after another. Then, the two sides of the ship started to vibrate again, and some changes occurred. 30 defensive systems were automatically assembled on both sides.
Similar to the previous installation of the power system, there were a total of 60 AI machines on the deck. They were responsible for maintaining and maintaining the operation of these 30 systems, which was equivalent to two people maintaining one set.
This ability was much stronger than the other aircraft carrier crew members.
" System, the most advanced active phased array radar, allowing this ship's surveillance capabilities to be maximized. All the radars required are exchanged, and I will also use points to upgrade to the current highest level!”
Liu Wu did not waste any time and continued to speak to the system.
