Chapter 1792: An alternative to ice carrier (2/2)
In other words, if you continue to sail, the surrounding engines will fall within less than a hundred nautical miles, and you will stop cooking.
After working for a long time, the final result came out. The entire experimental project will eventually be the result of failure. I cannot accept this result anyway.
However, this is the fact that the ice aircraft carrier sounds very good, but various technical problems have emerged one after another, and it can only end in failure.
”In other words, the ice aircraft carrier project must be terminated?” Marshall on the side asked. Although his own investment in the ice aircraft carrier is not the most, but the expectation is the greatest. Now, it seems to be vanished.
”Nor.” Alexander said, ”Mr. Jeffrey proposed an alternative.”
Yes, there are alternative methods, but this method is too shocking, so in the end Jeffrey did not dare to come, and entrusted Alexander to report. It depends on Roosevelt's meaning.
”any solution?”
”The main problem of the project is the engine. Because of the heat and vibration of the engine, the ice carrier cannot withstand it. Therefore, the only solution is to remove the engine.”
Hearing this, everyone took a breath and removed the engine. Is that still a boat? Isn't that just a piece of ice floe?
Just find a piece of floating ice directly from the Arctic Ocean!
”Then how did it start?” General Jin asked, regretting it after asking, but he still asked such a question?
”Find a warship to tow~~ Even our old World War I battleships can tow it.” Alexander continued, ”In this way, the front and back are separated, so you don’t have to worry about the engine. The problems of power and vibration are solved. The ice aircraft carrier continues to exist, becoming the largest aviation base on the sea.”
”What if it is bad weather?” General Jin continued to ask.
If there is no motivation, how to overcome bad weather? Carrying on a tugboat is very dangerous.
”In case of bad weather, then give up towing and leave the ice carrier itself.” Alexander said: ”We don't have to worry about bad weather.”
In the event of a sea storm, the boat will be shaken by wind and rain, and there is a risk of capsizing at any time. However, the battleships of tens of thousands of tons are as stable as Mount Tai with little shaking, and the ice carrier of two million tons is definitely Can easily deal with all kinds of bad weather.
The premise is to be separated from the towing ship in front, otherwise, in a storm, the ship in front and the ice carrier behind will be dumbfounded. This is almost the only thing to worry about.
Alexander’s explanation is very brief. Now, if the people present agree, the ice aircraft carrier will come out soon. In Canada’s icy world, almost without the use of refrigerators, the ice aircraft carrier can be frozen out of the inner lake and then towed out by a boat. That's it.
If he doesn't agree, then the Ice Aircraft Carrier project will completely fail, the plan will be terminated, and he will return to his original unit.
In short, leave the headaches to these big shots, and your task is over.
Sure enough, after Alexander explained these things, everyone present was stunned.
If there is no power, is it still a warship? If you deny this project, your own surface ships are far from enough.
