Vickers Armstrong shipyard, UK.

Britain, an old capitalist country with a strong industrial foundation, created a miracle during World War I. within a year, 51 warships were launched, showing their strong shipbuilding ability.

In addition to two Royal Navy shipyards, Britain now has more than a dozen private shipyards, large and small, and the current Vickers Armstrong shipyard is the largest private shipyard in Britain!

Among the major private shipbuilding companies, bidmore, Carmel Ryder, John Brown and Vickers were only steel mills producing armor steel for naval shipyards before the end of the 19th century, and Armstrong mainly produced various shipborne armed systems for naval shipyards. After a series of mergers and expansion, these companies have obtained strong capital and technical strength for the construction of battleships. After subsequent large-scale investment and expansion, these shipyards have gradually formed modern chemical plants with complete ship R & D and construction system.

After that, after continuous mergers and alliances, the British shipbuilding industry has formed a situation of two giants competing for hegemony. One is the merger of Vickers and maxim, another arms giant, and the other is the joint efforts of Armstrong and Whitworth. Its strength is enough to cover the whole military industry, far beyond the simple shipbuilding industry.

However, the prosperity of the naval arms industry ended with the end of World War I. The Empire had come to an end, and ship building orders had shrunk sharply. Vickers and Armstrong had to find a way to survive through merger in 1928, which is now Vickers Armstrong company, and the shipyard is still their main business.

"The head of the shipyard, the head of the shipyard, very much responded to our call. After the king ascended the throne, he immediately loyal to the king. All the equipment of the shipyard and the warships under construction have been well preserved." Edward VIII said excitedly on the side of Shrek.

Edward VIII has a long face. In fact, one of the most important is the full cooperation of German agents. After Edward VIII took his place, he immediately began lobbying. At the same time, German forces also pushed forward quickly and quickly controlled here.

Now, the whole shipyard is intact.

"People see people in danger. Those war criminals who deceive the public and plunge Europe into war will not understand the needs of the public. Peace is the most precious." Herek stood on the dock and said to Edward VIII.

At this time, his eyes had been attracted by a huge warship under construction.

"This warship is the unyielding aircraft carrier." At this time, sir DEX, the head of the shipyard who followed him, said.

When the war is coming, Britain will no longer be stingy with its own funds, especially when warships are sunk, Britain urgently needs to build new warships. In this case, Britain's shipbuilding industry has ushered in a bright future again.

Unyielding, an aircraft carrier belonging to the British fleet, is an improved version of the brilliance class. A layer of hangar is added, which can carry 43 fighters, which improves the fewer defects of Guanghui class aircraft.

This aircraft carrier with a displacement of 30000 tons has now completed the construction of the hull and is installing the ship island. When the ship island is completed, it can be launched.

It can be said that this is a semi-finished aircraft carrier.

Shrek nodded: "it seems that this aircraft carrier can enter service within a year."

Now, through the efforts of Germany, the industrial integration of France has been almost carried out, and after occupying Britain, the integration of Britain will also be carried out rapidly!

Britain is an island country. Britain has always attached importance to the Navy. Now, all British shipyards will manufacture warships in large quantities for the German fleet!

It can be said that in two years, the German Navy will really become a navy that can fight in the ocean. It will have several aircraft carrier formations and several large battleships at the same time!

This is also the reason why Shrek began to build aircraft carriers for the Soviet Union. If he wants to confuse the Soviet Union, he must give benefits to the Soviet Union. If he wants to continue to build aircraft carriers, he can even launch them and sea trials.

In any case, many problems will be exposed during the sea trial. If one of the boilers explodes because of the use of unqualified refractory bricks, it is possible, and it will have to be reworked at that time.

As for the naval guns, Shrek was not stingy. First, he gave the Soviets a turret and three guns to make the Soviets happy.

When the turret is transported to the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union will find the problem. The hull of their Soviet battleship has not been built yet. There is no place to store the turret!

Put it on the dock of shipbuilding and expose the turret. It will rust in less than half a year.

In this way, they will stop and build the ship first! With the progress of the Soviets, I'm afraid it will take another year or two to build the ship.

General Randall, the naval commander of the same company, is also very excited. The construction time of a warship is quite long. It takes two to three years to build an aircraft carrier. Now, it's great to have a ready-made aircraft carrier!

However, when the party stood on the deck and looked at the open and flat deck, Randall frowned: "no, the construction of this aircraft carrier should be stopped immediately. We need to redesign and refit to meet our needs."

This aircraft carrier uses a central elevator, and there is a big hole in the middle of the deck. In this way, it is impossible to take off and land when lifting the carrier based aircraft.

This is a serious defect, which restricts the take-off and landing efficiency of the aircraft carrier. It must be changed to the side lift designed by Germany!

The workload of such changes is huge. After all, they are not designed by German designers, which will have an impact on the overall stress of the ship body.

Sir DEX was stunned when he heard Randall's words. Now stop, and his factory will be shut down. How to solve the food and drink of so many workers?

However, he was absolutely afraid to raise any objections.

"It seems that there are still some slipways empty!" By the way, don't we still have a production demand for container ships? Just leave it to here. "

Sir DEX was delighted when he heard what Herek said. It seems that head of state Herek is very generous to his own side!

Now, Germany is expanding to the whole country, and there is a large demand for warship construction. As long as we keep up with Germany, we can get a steady stream of orders. With orders, our company can continue to develop, just like during World War I, and enter a new glory!
