But now she meets a commander.

He prefers aircraft carriers to battleships, is more willing to believe in the combat effectiveness of aircraft carriers, and trains them as the core of the fleet.

He must be the admiral that all aircraft carrier girls dream of, not to mention his ability to make the aircraft carrier more powerful.

She couldn't even imagine how strong Lexington would be in the future.

Just after completing the frame, which was just a lump of iron, Lexington began to construct the interior of the battleship according to the requirements on the drawing.

Make the details as perfect as possible.

At the same time, Wei An began to dig into his own pocket.

He took out the ship outfit that he had already made.

Radar, power, sonar, and carrier-based aircraft security are not currently manufactured.

15 carrier-based aircraft require one ship installation. When Lexington can have a maximum carrier capacity of 220 aircraft, at least 30 ship installations are needed.

Fighters and bombers require 15 each, which requires 6W of energy.

Converted into blue coins, it requires 600W. This is the lowest cost for his production, not to mention other considerations.���The cost required to arm an aircraft carrier.

Moreover, the ship's equipment cannot guarantee that it will be a relatively powerful carrier-based aircraft like the Lexington.

The more Lexington continued to manifest, the more she discovered what was hidden inside her hull.

Because her hull was originally larger than other ship girls, Wei An also hid things inside her hull.

Part of the Lexington's forward deck.

A large amount of space had been reserved below decks, which she had now gradually filled with her resources.

As a ship designer who loves aerial figures.

He knows more about aircraft carriers and has more knowledge in reserve.

He doesn't have to think about electromagnetic catapults now that they can't be manufactured at all, but the next time Lexington and their carrier-based aircraft are replaced, they may not be propeller-driven aircraft.

At that time, more advanced catapults will be needed.

Although he thought about making the catapult into a ship suit, he gave up in the end.

The catapult required modifications to the hull, so he directly drew this detailed information on the drawings.

It manifests itself directly when it is manifested by Lexington.

So now Lexington can feel that the flight deck of her hull is not completely integrated.

There are several decks that can be raised and lowered, a total of four.

There are two decks on the bow and two flight decks on the sides.

Lexington couldn't figure out the function of these decks, and Wei An didn't tell them what they were.

Because that jet deflector was not prepared for now at all. It was to prevent other equipment on the deck from being burned by the aircraft tail flame, or to avoid burning Wei An himself.

After all, Lexington and the others controlled the takeoff of the carrier-based aircraft.

Correspondingly, there are four special devices that are 100 meters long.

This is also the area where Wei An was the most brainless when designing the aircraft carrier, just as he was brainless when developing the ship's equipment.

He couldn't do anything about the electromagnetic catapult, but he could still handle the inferior steam catapult.

At the same time, in order to prepare for the future improvement of Lexington's power system, the high-temperature and high-pressure steam generated by boiling water can be used, without the need to use the extra hull separately for steam as it is now.

In order to facilitate future use, we will avoid having to modify the hull and deck separately.

In other places, Wei An converted most of the unused cabins into hangars and arranged them for power cabins.

At the same time, Wei An did not forget to reserve the same hanging hair as Clemenceau and others for the aircraft carrier, but it is different from their offensive weapons.

The reason Vian gave Lexington a haircut was to prevent the villain from being torpedoed underwater.

It's more of a defensive nature.

Therefore, there are only 16 reserved launch units installed on the deck on the rear side of the ship island.

So she took the remaining ship equipment from Wei An's hands and used them one by one, and manifested them.

Marking the completion of today's task.

At the same time, Lexington's displacement reached 6W.

Steel consumes 12W, oil 1000, ammunition 1000, aluminum consumes none.

The power system uses the same power system as Clemenceau.

Because the space inside the Lexington's hull was more abundant than Clemenceau's, he arranged two for Lexington to form the battleship's overwhelming power.

The total cost of several ship equipment is 7,000 Vian.

Vian was not relieved that Lexington was now saving him resources.

After all, the most expensive part is on the carrier-based aircraft. At that time, the resources that need to be consumed will not only be steel, but also aluminum, and tens of thousands of energy.

He would invest only more resources in Lexington than Clemenceau.

Looking at his current hull, Lexington's eyes were full of joy.

She likes the hull that Wei An designed for her very much.

No matter how you envision it on the drawings, it will never be as spectacular as when you realize it.

Although the deck is still empty, she does not doubt the performance of this battleship.

In particular, she can feel the strong power inside the hull. It is equipped with the same power system as Clemenceau, but it is doubled.

Although the speed cannot be doubled, there is no problem in pushing the current 6W-ton warship to easily pass 40 knots. She even finds it easy to continue to improve.

As for how far it can reach, she has not made a specific voyage and does not have an accurate result.

After all, as an aircraft carrier, the hull is larger.

The longer the waterline of the hull is, the further the power requirements will be reduced.

The same waterjet propeller is more efficient at high speeds.

All in all, Lexington can only run faster than Clemenceau, even if Lexington reaches 8W tons, or even 10W tons.

As for why Wei An arranged it this way.

His modified warships can all run over 40 knots. As the core of the fleet, the aircraft carrier must not be able to lag behind.

The maximum speed of a fleet is determined by the slowest warship. Currently, the maximum speed of his warship is 31.5 knots.

Shropshire speed.

And now that Lexington and the others are still using propeller planes, they can run faster and fly carrier-based aircraft into the wind more easily.

Without catapult takeoff, under the same rolling distance, the lift you can get when taking off against the wind will be stronger. The faster you run against the wind, the stronger the lift will be.

"So handsome!"

Saratoga stood on her deck, looking at the Lexington's hull and sighed.

She didn't have such feelings when Clemenceau appeared. After all, Clemenceau was a gunboat.

It's the same as her now. After the aircraft carrier was transformed by Wei An, she really felt the difference. She has a more handsome appearance, more powerful carrier-based aircraft, more space to use, and more powerful performance than her.
