My Italian: Chapter 349 warship designers

Although I don’t know what King Carlo said to Admiral Yagier, when the final five-year shipbuilding plan was passed, the total amount could be accurate, 289 million lire, which is the total amount of the five-year shipbuilding plan, including 52 warships of various types were built, with a gross tonnage of 128,000 tons.

The announcement of the shipbuilding plan naturally made the major shipyards eager to try, and everyone wanted to take a share of the shipbuilding plan. Among them, three new battleships and three armored cruisers in the shipbuilding plan are the core of competition among many shipyards.

Of course, it is not an easy task to win the order of the Admiralty. Everyone knows that the Italian Navy has high requirements. Sure enough, the shipyards immediately fell into mourning after the subsequent requests for warships issued to the shipyards.

Let's not talk about the installation patrol. Whose design can really meet the requirements of the Admiralty, this is the benchmark for the world's installation patrol.

Even a battleship that seems to be less difficult is not as difficult. It is also a problem to make a battleship with a higher performance than the Turin-class with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons less than that of the Turin-class.

But wailing and wailing, but if you want the Admiralty to lower its requirements, don't even think about it, so the designers of the major shipyards can only think hard and come up with a plan that will satisfy the Navy.

As the current chief designer of the Venice Naval Shipyard, Cuniberti came back to his design department as soon as he knew the requirements of the Admiralty.

Cuniberti put on his glasses, carefully glanced at the request of the Admiralty sent by the telegram, and then said to the assistant beside him. "Gulliver, take out the drawings No. 8, No. 19, No. 24."

As an excellent warship designer, in addition to keeping abreast of the latest technologies and facilities and equipment, Cuniberti also needs to conduct warship design drills based on new technologies and equipment, so as to keep himself in a sufficient state. Of course, no one else knows, but Cuniberti thinks it's his secret to success. And these practiced works, he did not throw away, but marked and kept them, and from time to time, he could also get other benefits by reading them.

Looking at the warship requirements issued by the Admiralty, Kuniberti immediately wanted to find a few similar reference drawings from the practice work.

With the same idea, there is also Benedetto Brin from the Andosal Shipyard. Also as a famous Italian warship designer, Brin also threw himself into work after getting the request of the Admiralty for the first time. .

"Cole, bring me the map of the simple warship that I sent last month."

As a warship designer, Brin is still eager to learn and likes to seek his inspiration from warships of various countries.

As for the designer named Cole, it is his new student.

"Okay teacher, I'll get it now."

Young Cole immediately went to take the picture book of the simple warship.

Brin straightened up and hammered his old waist that had been sore for too long.

"It's Bernard, the old guy, luckily!"

Brin envy his old rival Bernardo Bran, this guy really can afford it, he will retire when he says he will retire, and he is very happy to hold his good grandson at home.

On the other hand, he has no choice but to retire. Although Cole is good in all aspects, he still lacks a little spirituality in the design of warships.

Well, this is Brin's own idea. In fact, Cole is still very good in the design of warships. He has designed several small warships and has also been praised by the Navy.

But Brin compares Cole with Kunibatti, who amazed the entire warship design world. After all, there are different degrees of genius, like in front of Kunibati, other geniuses dare not say that they are geniuses.

However, he was unwilling to let him hand over the burden directly like Bernardto Brin. His best destination for Benedetto Brin is to die on the design desk. So although he regrets the departure of the genius, he still wants to let the world know that he, Benedetto Brin, is still the best naval ship designer in Italy.

Of course, if you want to be the best warship designer, you naturally need to speak with strength. The navy's request this time is the best arena, and he has to prove that his sword is not old. However, there is currently a problem. Should he choose a new type of cruiser or a new type of battleship? Disrespect for the high demands of the Admiralty.

In addition to the current two famous designers, other warship designers are also not far behind. Everyone is arrogant in their hearts, so why should two people control the design of large warships.

Among them, as the chief designer of Fincantieri shipyard, Alessandro Budel was the most unconvinced.

Compared with these two, Buddle has neither the fame of Kunibati, nor the profound background and knowledge of Brin.

However, since he can become the chief designer of Fincantieri, the second largest private shipyard in Italy, he also has two brushes.

In ship design, Budel likes to design the customer's requirements to the extreme, and this style of behavior has attracted many orders for Fincantieri.

In addition, Budel is not only famous in civilian ships, but also in the design of warships.

The Eagle-class reconnaissance cruiser currently in the Italian Navy was created by him.

So in the face of this naval shipbuilding order, he will never miss it.

It's not enough just to not miss it. No one of the designers of the major shipyards will give up, so there will inevitably be a battle~www.mtlnovel.com~ This point Budel is also mentally prepared.

Of course, as an excellent designer, choosing that battleship as the main attack direction is also a must. At this point, Budel is much better than Brin. At least he has made clear his main direction of attack, which is the research on new-style patrols.

Because Budel believes that regardless of the battleship requirements given by the military, it does not seem to have improved much, but it is actually very difficult to achieve it under the condition of reducing more than 1,000 tons. Because even after he has carefully understood the Turin class, he must admit that the Turin class is very classic, and the three points of the warship's fire protection speed are already very balanced.

It's actually very difficult to lose weight, at least he thinks that he can't compete with Brin and Cuniberti who designed this level.

As for the new cruiser, although the Admiralty has set its performance very high, Budel, who has already designed cruisers, believes that this is within his ability.

Of course, there are not only these three Italian warship designers, other designers are also eager to come up with results that satisfy the Navy.

However, if you want the order to be spent on your own, it also depends on the respective skills of the talented designers. As for the situation, the results of the naval shipbuilding tender will be announced in a month.
