For countries near the sea, only by building a strong navy can their territorial sea security be guaranteed. The nuclear submarine, as the main member of the Trinity nuclear strike, can bring no less deterrence than the marine heavy vehicle carrier. Once it dives into the sea, it will pose a fatal threat to warships at sea. Because nuclear submarines are fighting underwater, naturally the deeper they dive, the more difficult it is to detect, and the greater the deterrence they bring. However, under the action of seawater resistance and pressure, nuclear submarines can be said to be difficult to move underwater. Considering the comprehensive performance of nuclear submarines, countries have also targeted research on their underwater speed.
There is no doubt that whose nuclear submarine travels faster underwater, the advantage it can play is the greatest. In addition to the Wuchang, India also owns nuclear submarines in the world, and China, the United States and Russia have the best development in the field of nuclear submarines. Next, let's take a look at the speeds of China, the United States and Russia. Do you know who is the fastest?
Let’s take a look at the old neighbor, the nuclear submarine of the fighting nation Russia. The nuclear submarine technology of the former Soviet Union is the best in the world. In the arms race with the United States in the last century, the Soviet Union produced a lot of black technology. Even the United States at that time was terrified of these nuclear submarines. It can be said that nuclear submarines are the Soviet Union’s trademark. One of the weapons.
Of course, most of these inheritances have been handed over to Russia, although in recent years Russia's economic efficiency has not been very good, and it has not invested much in scientific research. But Russia still values the development of nuclear submarines. For example, their latest fourth-generation nuclear submarine, the God of the North Wind, has an aircraft carrier of 46 knots and is currently the fastest nuclear submarine in the world.
Next is the United States. Although the United States is not as strong as the Soviet Union in the field of nuclear submarines, it is, after all, the country that built the world's first nuclear submarine. Therefore, the US nuclear submarine is also the most top-notch existence in the world. Their Ohio-class nuclear submarines can reach a maximum speed of 39 knots, which is a bit worse than Russia, but the United States is still very confident on the ocean with 11 aircraft carriers.
finally talk about China. The antagonism between China and the Soviet Union earlier led to a bottleneck in the research and development of nuclear submarines, but the United States on the other side of the ocean has been staring at it. In addition, the Soviet Union is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so China must also have nuclear submarines, otherwise they will not sleep well. Feel calm.
At that time, no country was willing to share technology for our reference, so it was extremely difficult in the early stage of nuclear submarine development. However, the wisdom of the Chinese people is infinite, and our ability to innovate has played a miraculous effect. In the end, through constant exploration, nuclear submarines were developed.
But after all, we are beginners in the field of nuclear submarines, so the overall performance of nuclear submarines in our hands is very average. The fastest 095 nuclear submarine has a speed of only 30 knots, and there are a lot of problems. So far, no suitable solutions have been found.
While we recognize our achievements, we must also recognize the gap with the United States and Russia. However, China has never stopped the research and development of nuclear submarines. As long as we accumulate enough experience, coupled with later improvements and upgrades, catching up with the United States and Russia is just around the corner. of.
