Chapter 904: Gallium Nitride Makes Another Great Contribution, Electronic Reconnaissance Ship

Summer in Guangzhou has come earlier than in previous years.

It is only April, but the temperature has soared to 30 degrees.

Early in the morning, Cao Yang came to the office as usual and personally watered the evergreen next to the windowsill.

Then he picked up the major events that happened in various industries yesterday that Mi Ying had sorted out.

Then he looked at today's schedule, and it was almost time to start a busy day.

Nanshan Investment's layout in the futures market certainly did not show results so quickly.

However, the layout in other fields has begun to take effect.

Today, we will go to Wenchong Shipyard with the people from Nanshan Semiconductor to witness the delivery ceremony of the first military product project of the cooperation between the two parties.

Pan Jun, as a representative of the relevant department, will also go with him.

"Mr. Cao, I feel that the cooperation with Wenchong Shipyard can be further deepened, and many of our company's new technologies can be installed and used on their ship platforms."

"Although the ship is produced by them, the core things are all from our company, which can fully reflect our competitiveness."

This is the first time that Zhang Jing has been deeply involved in the cooperation with Wenchong Shipyard, which is like opening a new door.

With the ship as a platform, Nanshan Semiconductor also has a lot of room to play.

For example, the most core equipment on the electronic reconnaissance ship this time is all researched by Nanshan Semiconductor.

Their gallium nitride power components are used in various jamming equipment and radars, and the effect is not too exaggerated.

In particular, the electronic reconnaissance ship jointly launched by Nanshan Semiconductor and Wenchong Shipyard this time has the ability of electronic jamming in addition to reconnaissance.

It is equivalent to integrating the function of the electronic jammer into the electronic reconnaissance ship.

At this time, the role of gallium nitride power components is very large.

Because the power emitted by others is dozens of times higher than yours for the same size of equipment.

As long as the power is fully turned on, the opponent's electronic equipment will be paralyzed in minutes.

This power will surprise people at a critical moment.

This ability to shield enemy radar and communication signals, and even cut off radio waves, making enemy warships "blind" and "deaf" is absolutely daunting.

"The previous dredger, the current electronic reconnaissance ship, and the LNG transport ship being produced are all relatively special ship types, but their significance is very different.

"I think Mr. Zhang's proposal is very good. We can cooperate more with Wenchong Shipyard to launch some more distinctive ships."

Pan Jinxing also went to attend the delivery ceremony of the new electronic reconnaissance ship of Wenchong Shipyard today.

Some of the equipment on this ship was developed under the cooperation of Nanshan Equipment and Nanshan Semiconductor.

"Take a differentiated path and produce products with Nanshan characteristics."

"Mr. Cao's idea is applicable in any field."

"For example, we can also consider producing some special micro submarines, or even electric submarines, for use in some special occasions in the next step."

"It may also be favored by relevant departments. "

Zhang Jing proposed a new direction in a unique way.

Nanshan Group's enterprises have not been involved in submarine manufacturing.

If a breakthrough is achieved this time, it may bring about very interesting changes.

Mini submarines are used in conjunction with nuclear submarines to release satellite submarines in special waters, which may have unexpected effects in special operations.

"These ideas are all good. Let's communicate with Wenchong Shipyard later. ”

Cao Yang did not expect that his subordinates are now more and more interested in producing military-related products.

It seems that the United States has been suppressing Nanshan’s enterprises in recent years, and many executives are also very angry.

As long as there is a chance to cause trouble for the United States, everyone is very motivated.

Continuously improving China’s military capabilities and launching various advanced military equipment are obviously the most effective measures to cause trouble for the United States.

After all, this world is essentially a world of the survival of the fittest.

When you are not strong enough, it is possible for others to bully you in any way they want.

While the heads of various companies in the Nanshan system were discussing cooperation with Wenchong Shipyard, the other party was waiting for Cao Yang and his party to arrive while discussing various topics of cooperation.

"Boss Xiang, judging from the various tests after launching, the relevant departments are very satisfied with the new generation of electronic reconnaissance ships developed in cooperation with Nanshan companies."

"Its performance surpasses the 815 reconnaissance ship in service in all aspects, and it also has obvious advantages compared with the 815A in production. ”

“Even because of its appearance, the 815A has fallen behind before it was launched. I guess Hudong Shipyard must be quite depressed.”

As the chief engineer of Wenchong Shipyard, Wei Tianyuan can be said to have personally witnessed the birth of a new generation of electronic reconnaissance ships.

With the assistance of Nanshan companies such as Nanshan Semiconductor, Nanshan Equipment and Venusstar Technology, the performance of this generation of electronic reconnaissance ships is extremely strong.

For China, this is absolutely of great significance.

The relevant departments are also knowledgeable. While the new generation of electronic reconnaissance ships was officially delivered today, the order for the next batch of two reconnaissance ships has been placed at Wenchong Shipyard.

"Because of this, the relevant departments are preparing to determine the model of this ship as 915, which can be said to be completely ahead of 815."

"In terms of its comprehensive capabilities, the same type of products in the United States cannot compare. If this situation spreads, it is estimated that the world will be lively again."

Xiang Jianghui is now serving as the deputy general manager of China Shipbuilding. He originally had the opportunity to go directly to the headquarters to work, and he did not have to stay in Wenchong Shipyard.

But she has seen the rapid development of Wenchong Shipyard in recent years. Whether it is the launch of new products or the improvement of technical strength, the speed is higher than that of other brother companies.

In this case, there must be more credits waiting for him.

So he is completely reluctant to give up the position of general manager of Wenchong Shipyard. He is ready to continue working here for a few years to make Wenchong Shipyard an important factory under CSSC.

To achieve this goal, more competitive models of products are naturally needed.

After cooperating with Nanshan companies, Xiang Jianghui has no worries in this regard.

"Electronic reconnaissance ships are indeed too important. It is estimated that after suffering a few losses, the United States and its allies will not dare to conduct exercises around us easily."

Electronic reconnaissance ships are mainly responsible for monitoring various electronic signal intelligence and optoelectronic information of the opponent's ships or submarines, and analyzing and predicting them. They are very powerful.

For example, a joint exercise of the army, navy and air force is being held in a certain sea area. Once the opponent's electronic reconnaissance ship appears nearby, the electronic data, radar parameters and other top-secret information of various naval ships and submarines, various types of air force fighters, and various army units are likely to be obtained by the opponent's electronic reconnaissance ship.

Therefore, countries around the world pay great attention to peripheral vigilance during large-scale military exercises.

Once the opponent's electronic reconnaissance aircraft or electronic reconnaissance ship is discovered, they will definitely find a way to intercept and expel it.

However, in many cases, it is impossible to expel it, and it can only be intercepted at the periphery to prevent the electronic reconnaissance ship from going deeper.

For example, in some exercises in the southern or eastern waters of China, you have no way to stop the appearance of China's electronic reconnaissance ships.

At that time, after a few more exercises, the various electronic information of those people's ships, aircraft, submarines, and radars will be understood by China.

This can definitely play a very huge role in special times.

So Wei Tianyuan felt that after the United States suffered losses in the future, it would not dare to conduct exercises around China easily.

"Building and developing electronic reconnaissance ships requires a high level of technology. It not only requires the cooperation of shipbuilding work, but also the key lies in various detection equipment and comprehensive analysis systems."

"These equipment alone can keep most countries in the world out."

"In the future, even if our neighbors feel pressure, it will be difficult for them to produce higher-level electronic reconnaissance ships themselves."

"Even in the United States, it is very difficult to produce electronic reconnaissance ships more advanced than 915 in a short period of time."

"By then, our Wenchong Shipyard can be regarded as famous in the relevant departments."

Xiang Jianghui did not feel bored at all while waiting for Cao Yang and others to arrive.

While exchanging relevant views with Wei Tianyuan, he thought about the various powerful performances of this ship in the next activities.

This is really a sour thing.

"It's not easy to meet Mr. Cao. I want to take this opportunity to talk to him about the construction of the second batch of 915 electronic reconnaissance ships."

"Although the current one is very advanced, it would be great if the second one could be more advanced."

"Mr. Cao always has some eye-catching ideas in this regard. If we slightly change a certain place, the performance will have a big breakthrough. I think the relevant departments should be looking forward to it."

Wei Tianyuan has had a lot of contact with Nanshan companies in recent years, and has a relatively full understanding of Cao Yang's technical strength.

This is definitely a master in the field of technology. He is not an academician, but he is better than an academician.

In the field of cutting-edge technology research and development, a correct research and development direction plays a huge role.

In fact, many academicians rarely go out to do experiments themselves.

They are mainly responsible for some directional checks, and the people below are responsible for specific implementation and verification.

If they are allowed to do experiments themselves, it would be a waste of talent.

"Well, this is indeed something you can ask."

"Who knows, Mr. Cao might have some wonderful ideas."

Xiang Jianghui would definitely not object to Wei Tianyuan's idea.

Anyway, there would be no harm in asking, at most there would be no benefit.

If there is a surprise, it would be a great joy for Wenchong Shipyard.

While the two were chatting, Cao Yang and his party also arrived.

As for the representatives of the relevant departments, they also arrived at about the same time.

This meeting was naturally full of greetings.

Pan Jun brought the main personnel of the relevant departments and personally introduced them to Cao Yang.

Some of them Cao Yang had met before, and some he had not.

On the whole, the atmosphere was definitely harmonious.

"Mr. Cao, from the previous test data, the electronic reconnaissance ship you produced in cooperation with Wenchong Shipyard has a very strong performance and can collect various electromagnetic signals from the opponent very well."

"At the same time, it also has a relatively strong electronic jamming capability."

"But after all, it is not a special electronic jamming ship. Is it possible to produce a special electronic jamming ship so that it can completely block all electromagnetic signals in a large sea area in a short time?"

Not only did Wei Tianyuan want to take this opportunity to discuss the electronic reconnaissance ship with Cao Yang, but the leaders of the relevant departments also wanted to put forward some of their own ideas.

In the information age, electronic reconnaissance and electronic jamming are obviously very important means.

Imagine if an electronic jamming ship appeared in the sea area, and at a critical moment, all the ships of the opponent were directly cut off from communication.

Even directly burned out the radar and electronic equipment of the opponent, how great would the combat effect be?

In the past, when there were no gallium nitride power components, it was very difficult to do this.

And the ship was very bumpy when traveling on the sea, and it would encounter strong winds and waves at any time.

Those delicate electronic jamming equipment can be easily damaged.

The larger the electronic jamming equipment, the more vulnerable it is to damage.

Therefore, electronic jamming equipment is generally installed on aircraft and developed into electronic jammers.

There are relatively few professional electronic jamming ships, and most of them concentrate part of their functions on electronic reconnaissance ships.

Now with the participation of Nanshan companies, this situation seems to have a chance to change, and the relevant departments naturally do not want to let it go.

If the research and development is really successful, then an electronic reconnaissance ship and an electronic jamming ship will be dispatched together, which can simply become a "sea street slicker" and give opponents a headache.

Anything that gives opponents a headache is obviously worth doing well.

"This can be tried well, and we also hope to make more contributions to national defense."

Although Cao Yang is not sure whether this plan can be successfully implemented in the end, there is no problem with the general direction.

So he agreed directly.

This is a good start, and everyone soon exchanged various special ideas.

"Mr. Cao, the current displacement of 915 is only 6,000 tons, although its performance is already very outstanding."

"We are thinking that after the production of the second and third ships, can we directly further develop electronic reconnaissance ships with a displacement of 8,000 tons or even 10,000 tons?"

"At that time, the functions of the electronic jamming ship will also be concentrated together to allow it to maximize its combat effectiveness."

The larger the ship, the more equipment can be installed.

Two ships go to sea, and the things that need to be coordinated and prepared are definitely more than one.

So Wei Tianyuan boldly proposed a plan to continue to expand the tonnage.

For such a professional warship, expanding the tonnage is not such a simple matter, and it involves a series of changes behind it.

If a 10,000-ton electronic reconnaissance ship can really be produced, it can really be a hooligan at any time on the sea.

The leaders of the relevant departments are also very interested in this.

It was not until ten o'clock in the morning that the official handover ceremony began, and everyone stopped all kinds of exchanges.

For new ship deliveries like this, there are naturally fixed procedures for them, so Cao Yang doesn't need to worry about anything.

For this kind of thing, all the procedures are prepared in advance, so there will be no accidents.

Soon, the delivery ceremony was successfully completed.

The first 915 slowly drove out of the dock and was about to start its first mission.

"Mr. Cao, the first official deployment of 915 has begun to perform its mission."

"After the relevant departments use it, whether they think it is good or bad, it is estimated that there will be an evaluation soon."

On the way back, Pan Jun and Cao Yang got in the same car and shared some information about the next actions of 915 with him.

For outsiders, these are confidential information.

But Cao Yang's current confidentiality level is also relatively high, so it doesn't matter if he knows a lot of information.

"The south has been very excited in the past year. Now they are doing some exercises with the United States. We really need to go there to conduct a thorough investigation and make the other side feel some pressure."

Cao Yang fully understands the ideas of the relevant departments.

On the one hand, this is to show our sword and let everyone know that the level of our electronic reconnaissance ship is very high, but the specific level is not announced.

On the other hand, it is also to collect various information about the opponent so as to know ourselves and the enemy.

As long as there is enough information, we can judge which country and which model the ships and aircraft in a certain sea area are based on some electronic signals in the future.

When a conflict really occurs, the role of this information is very huge.

It is equivalent to the opponent appearing in front of us as if it is almost translucent, and we can calmly formulate a response plan.

"Yes, it's not good to always keep a low profile."

"Using non-contact equipment such as electronic reconnaissance ships to conduct confrontation and information collection is relatively less likely to escalate conflicts and can also make the other side feel pressure."

"Especially in this field, the United States and its allies have always felt that they are the best in the world."

"Now we challenge them in the field they are best at, and the pressure they feel is more direct."

Like Cao Yang, Pan Jun is full of expectations for the performance of the 915 electronic reconnaissance ship in the next period of time.

If it makes great achievements in the first deployment, not only will the relevant departments be honored, but the manufacturers who participated in the development of this ship will also be proud of it.

After all, electronic reconnaissance ships, in addition to having relatively high requirements for users, more importantly, require their own equipment to be advanced.

Otherwise, even if you arrange the world's most powerful technicians on board, there is no way to collect various information from the other side.

Just when Cao Yang and Pan Jun returned, the news that the 915 electronic reconnaissance ship was officially delivered to the relevant departments for use also spread quickly within the system.

Hudong Shipyard, which is currently producing an upgraded version of the 815 electronic reconnaissance ship, is no exception.

"Congratulations, President Xiang, you are entering the electronic reconnaissance ship industry so soon."

"We at Hudong have some experience in this area. I wonder if the technical teams of both sides can sit together and exchange ideas so that our country's electronic reconnaissance ships can reach a higher level?"

Zhao Linyuan, general manager of Hudong Shipyard, obviously felt the pressure brought by the 915 electronic reconnaissance ship.

Although the production volume of electronic reconnaissance ships is destined not to be particularly large, and the displacement is not particularly large, the comprehensive impact on a shipyard is not that great.

However, as a very special ship type with high technological content, it was mainly responsible for Hudong Shipyard in the past.

Now Wenchong Shipyard has made a breakthrough in this regard, and from the information Zhao Linyuan has learned from various sources, the other party's technical level seems to be quite advanced.

Although he doubted the authenticity of these paper data, considering that Wenchong Shipyard is cooperating with Nanshan Semiconductor and other Nanshan-based companies this time, it is hard to say whether it will bring some unexpected surprises to everyone.

So the best way is for everyone to sit down and have a good exchange, and see what the technical route each adopts is like.

Anyway, everyone is a state-owned enterprise, and the problem of confidentiality is not really big.

As for the issue of technical patents, although China has paid more and more attention to it in recent years, when it comes to the layout and related adjustments of military products, patents are often not talked about.

For example, a shipyard has developed an important warship of a certain model, but its own production capacity is limited, and the demand of relevant departments is relatively strong. Then it is almost inevitable to give the technical information to other shipyards and let them join the production army.

Although there is no problem of insufficient production capacity of electronic reconnaissance ships, Zhao Linyuan still wants to have a good exchange of technology.

Otherwise, the ships they produce will lag behind before they are launched, which is quite embarrassing.

"Mr. Zhao, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you this time."

As soon as Xiang Jianghui said this, Zhao Linyuan's face on the opposite side couldn't help but change.

Is Wenchong Shipyard so disrespectful now?

Although the other party has developed very fast within the system in recent years, there is a feeling of sudden emergence.

But the overall status is definitely not as good as that of Hudong Shipyard.

Even if Xiang Jianghui is the vice president of the group, he should not have this attitude, right?

Is he really so disrespectful?

"President Xiang, I believe that the relevant departments certainly do not want to waste limited funds on some duplicate construction, right?"

"Both of us are producing electronic reconnaissance ships. Although the final delivery locations are different, the enemies we face are actually quite similar."

"In this case, it will not hurt anyone if everyone sits down and exchanges technology."

Although he was very dissatisfied, Zhao Linyuan did not fly into a rage.

People of his level will not lose their temper easily.

Because they know that most things cannot be solved by losing their temper.

"Mr. Zhao, I understand what you mean."

"I think you may have misunderstood me."

Xiang Jianghui thought that it was enough. If he continued to "tease" her, the other party would probably be furious, so he continued: "Although the 915 electronic reconnaissance ship was produced in our Wenchong Shipyard, except for the hull, which was designed and produced by us, all the electronic equipment on it, even the gas turbine, was handled by Nanshan companies."

"Don't be afraid of you laughing at me. We just produced an assembly platform for this ship, and all the core work was done by Nanshan companies."

Xiang Jianghui was not worried about being embarrassed after saying this.

Anyway, even if this kind of thing is not mentioned now, everyone will know it sooner or later.

If it is too late, Nanshan companies may not be happy.

There is no problem for Hudong Shipyard to come over for exchanges, but it should go to Nanshan-based companies for exchanges in order to truly gain something.
