Chapter 357 Getting ready to go into the water
One night, when everyone else had gone back to rest exhausted, Li Yang was still standing in the laboratory, concentrating on debugging a complex instrument. His eyes were a little red from working for a long time, but his eyes were still firm.
Suddenly, the instrument made a slight sound, and a string of data scrolled quickly on the screen.
Li Yang's eyes lit up. He knew that they had finally made a breakthrough in the key technology of fuel rods.
"Success!" Li Yang said softly, with a gratified smile on his face. He knew that this was only the first step in a long journey, but this breakthrough undoubtedly gave the entire team great confidence.
With the breakthrough of core technology, the entire project is progressing rapidly.
Li Yang led the team to solve step by step the design and manufacturing problems of key components such as the reactor pressure vessel, steam generator, and control rods.
Every component embodies their wisdom and sweat.
While solving technical problems, Li Yang also paid great attention to improving safety. He designed an advanced safety system, including multiple protection measures and emergency cooling systems, to ensure the safety of the reactor under any circumstances.
"Safety is our top priority," Li Yang often stressed. "We not only need to build powerful ships, but also protect the lives of every crew member."
Finally, after countless days and nights of hard work, the world's first small nuclear reactor designed specifically for destroyers was born. When Li Yang stood in front of this machine that embodied his lifelong wisdom, tears of pride flashed in his eyes.
"We did it," he said softly, his voice choking. "This is going to change the world."
Zhang Guoqiang stood beside Li Yang, his eyes full of admiration. "Engineer Li, without you, we would not have been able to complete this seemingly impossible task in such a short time."
Li Yang smiled and patted Zhang Guoqiang on the shoulder. "This is the credit of all of us. Now, let's start the next step."
With the completion of the nuclear power system, the construction of the entire destroyer was in full swing. Li Yang personally supervised every link, from the welding of the hull to the installation of various systems, and he devoted all his efforts.
In the dock, the huge gantry crane slowly moved, placing each piece of heavy steel plate precisely in place. The welders wore protective masks, held welding torches, and concentrated on the delicate welding work. Sparks flew, emitting a brilliant light in the dim dock.
Li Yang stood on a high platform, looking down at the entire construction process, his eyes full of anticipation and longing, as if he had already seen the scene of this giant ship breaking through the waves on the sea.
"Engineer Li," Zhang Guoqiang walked up to Li Yang and pointed at a part that was being installed and asked, "What is this? It looks very special."
Li Yang smiled and explained: "This is part of the phased array radar system. It can track hundreds of targets at the same time, greatly improving our detection and defense capabilities."
Zhang Guoqiang nodded in amazement, once again impressed by Li Yang's foresight.
As time went by, this destroyer, which had condensed countless efforts, gradually took shape. Its outline became clearer and clearer, showing a unique majestic momentum. Every worker involved in the construction was proud to be able to participate in this great project.
Finally, on a sunny day, this amazing nuclear-powered destroyer completed the final debugging and was ready to be inspected by the leadership.
When they stepped onto the deck, everyone held their breath. The leader's eyes swept across every corner of the ship, with surprise and admiration in his eyes.
The destroyer has a streamlined shape, full of dynamism and power. Its hull adopts an advanced stealth design, and no protruding structures can be seen on the surface, giving people a sense of unity. On the deck, various advanced weapon systems are neatly arranged. Although most of them are hidden in the cabin, the powerful firepower contained in them can still be felt.
The leader slowly walked towards the bridge, each step full of curiosity and anticipation. The moment he stepped into the bridge, the scene before him made him gasp.
The interior of the bridge is spacious and bright, with all kinds of advanced electronic equipment and display screens all around. On the central command platform, a huge holographic projection is showing the situation of the surrounding sea in real time. Each workstation is equipped with a touch screen and voice control system, giving the entire bridge a futuristic impression.
"Comrades," the leader turned to his entourage and said, his voice full of excitement, "Is this our future navy? It's so shocking!"
At this moment, Li Yang stepped forward and greeted the leader respectfully. "Hello, Chief. Welcome to inspect our new nuclear-powered destroyer."
The leader shook Li Yang's hand enthusiastically, "Comrade Li, you have done a great job! Please introduce this amazing ship to me."
Li Yang nodded and began to introduce the parameters and performance of the destroyer in detail.
"Commander, this destroyer uses the most advanced nuclear power system and can sail continuously for 60 days without resupply. Its maximum displacement reaches 13000 tons and its maximum speed can exceed 30 knots."
The leader raised his eyebrows in surprise, "With such a large displacement, how can the speed be so fast?"
Li Yang smiled proudly, "Yes, sir. This is thanks to our new nuclear reactor and advanced hull design."
Then, Li Yang led the leaders to visit various parts of the ship and introduced the functions of each system in detail.
"Our vertical launch system can carry 112 units and can launch various types of missiles, including air defense missiles, anti-ship missiles and cruise missiles," said Li Yang, pointing to the launch device on the deck.
"In terms of electronic equipment, we are equipped with the most advanced phased array radar system, which can track hundreds of air, surface and underwater targets at the same time. We also have an advanced electronic warfare system that can effectively interfere with enemy radars and communications."
The leader nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with admiration.
When introducing the weapon system, Li Yang's tone became more proud: "Our main gun is a 130mm electromagnetic gun with a range of more than 200 kilometers, which can carry out precise strikes on sea and land targets. In addition, we are also equipped with a close-range defense weapon system that can effectively intercept anti-ship missiles."
The leader exclaimed: "This is simply a mobile sea fortress!"
Li Yang smiled modestly, "Our goal is to build a modern destroyer that is leading in all aspects and make it the backbone of our navy."
After the visit, the leader stood on the deck, looking at the amazing warship, his eyes full of pride and expectation. He turned to Li Yang and said earnestly: "Comrade Li, you have made great contributions to the motherland. This ship is not only a major breakthrough in our national defense, but also a symbol of our scientific and technological strength.
