Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

For a while, internal meetings continued on the government proposal for the Yi Sun-sin-class destroyer.

The conclusion reached by combining the opinions of the people in charge of each field is the expansion of the overall specification.

We finally decided to propose it to a public hearing in a few days.

smart!

"President. Natasha briefly requested an interview with the president.”

While looking at the materials, Secretary Kim knocked on the door and said:

A few days ago, he had heard that he had returned to Russia for a short time after receiving a call from Putin.

Contrary to the expectation that it would take a long time, the fact that he returned after only three days did not seem to be a major issue.

“Tell me to come in.”

I closed the papers I was reviewing and headed to the sofa.

At the same time, Natasha suddenly enters the room and sits opposite me, as if the seat was hers.

“I’m glad I’m still alive.”

“·················ogue.”

Her word choice was still clumsy.

She said, waving her hand, because it felt like my mental world would be devastated if I continued to talk.

[Let's just do it in English.]

[Ah! Is my Korean so clumsy?]

[Yeah, a lot too. From what I've heard, it seems like I'm going to kill people several times with my words.]

[Is that enough? Well, anyway, I just wanted to ask if you've had any issues.]

[Good luck. But why did President Putin suddenly call Natasha?]

Natasha stared at me at my straightforward question.

Does it look like a thoughtful expression?

As soon as she had a gut feeling that something serious was about to happen, her hand suddenly turned to her chest.

"Hmm······."

Well, I'm not too upset now.

By the way, why did you keep it there again this time?

Whoops.

Before she could shake off the thought she had heard for a moment, a memory of her escaped from her chest.

Soon after, she handed it to me and brought her laptop that was on her desk as if to check it right away.

Click!

I silently plugged in the memory and then clicked on the file.

What immediately appeared on the screen were pictures that looked like they were taken from a satellite.

Looking back at her puzzled, her words spit out with her awkward expression on her face.

[This is a Chinese shipyard photographed by a Russian military satellite.]

[shipyard?]

[Yes, as you can see, there are currently about 10 shipyards in China that are building destroyers weighing over 10,000 tons.]

I immediately looked at the picture again.

As she said, huge traps lined up on the dock.

It seems that the drying rate is about 90%, and that is probably the reason why I do not need to use a closed dock.

[Is this... is China building an Aegis-class air defense destroyer?]

[According to the testimony of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Agency, yes. A total of 12 ships. It is said that the number of ships planned in the future will also reach 15.]

[··········.]

I lost my mind for a moment.

At this time, China was building Aegis-class ships.

That's a whopping 27 ships.

This goes beyond an error in the timeline and is the result of ignoring the reality.

‘Even though the size of the economy has grown to the point where it cannot be compared to the past, is China saying that the Aegis warship is being shot at this time?’

No, aside from that, China is now hiding its claws, so why the hell is it all of a sudden?

[The United States upgraded Korea to the level of first-class alliance, right?]

As she deepened her thoughts, Natasha whispered.

As she stares silently, she opens her mouth again.

[Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the United States made such a decision. This means that anyone can see that they are preparing the Ocean Fleet, which goes against the intention of the United States to check China's expansionism. To put it simply, it is said that the United States of course needed to deal with it, and that it must have been Korea.]

[Is that the conclusion made by the Russian Foreign Intelligence Agency?]

[It felt like there was something else, but I don't know. Even if I do, I am not in a position to tell you. In any case, the intelligence service as well as Sir Putin said it is certain that China's move is to expand its maritime territories.]

[So, what do you think Russia is going to do now? About us becoming the first-class ally of the United States.]

I asked Kim, who became a hot topic anyway.

Natasha grinned as if she understood her intentions.

[Could you tell us about your reaction as it is?]

[Yes, it would be nice.]

[Damn America! Fuck you.]

[··········.]

My eyes widened in embarrassment.

As the thought that this might be a big deal ran through her mind, she smiled and said again.

[You don't have to look like that. After all, the conversation between Mr Putin and the President of the United States has already passed through the hotline.]

[·······What kind of conversation?]

[That's it, I don't know. In any case, it is your intention not to take issue with it ‘for now’.]

[··········.]

[What I can guess is that Russia is also certain that China is wary of expansion.]

Perhaps it was the conclusion that came from the thought that even if he said so, it would be difficult for Russia to end up with the United States.

Russia, who has experienced firsthand, knows best what the outcome will be if the US puts its utmost effort into it.

Moreover, Russia is currently in the midst of rebuilding its collapsed economy.

Putin would have had no choice but to choose silence, even in order not to be disturbed for the time being.

'No, I don't know. Is there any other reason?'

[Oh, and please, Sir Putin, do not delay any further and tell him that he would like to visit Russia.]

He nodded indifferently at the words that followed her.

She said she didn't like it, Natasha suddenly grabbed her chin and my hand.

[Do not delay any further.]

[··········.]

He stared at her with a puzzled mind.

For a moment, her hand turned to the laptop.

Afterwards, she turned through the photo files again, and stopped clicking when the pictures of the snow-covered land appeared on the screen.

[According to Mr Putin's message, he wanted Jaewoo to participate in the development of the natural gas buried here.]

[Natural gas?]

For a moment, he looked back at the screen.

The first thing that caught my eye was the name of the photo file.

There is the word Yamal Peninsula. It was also written in English for easy identification.

[Yamal Peninsula?]

It felt like being hit in the head with a hammer.

The Yamal Peninsula is home to 30% of the world's natural gas reserves.

So, Russia started full-scale development around 2007.

But are you going to develop it with Jaewoo?

[When can I go?]

I calmed my excitement and immediately asked.

Perhaps she was surprised by my overly violent reaction, Natasha looked at me with a blank expression and said:

[Probably, he said that after your tour of Europe, it would be appropriate. Then, roughly, around the middle of next month...]

Beep!

Before the words could even come out, she pressed the intercom.

Soon after, she instructs Secretary Kim to book a plane ticket to Russia for that date in advance, and Natasha looks at me in a bewildered way.

[Tell this to President Putin. I will see you as soon as I return from my European tour.]

[At that time, if something urgent happens, what are you going to do to make an appointment already? Then, if the appointment is delayed again, your Excellency will...

[The appointment will not be delayed. Well, if there's anything you'd like to have, let me know. If I feel like it right now, I want to buy a few houses at least.]

[··········.]

*********

A week before heading to Russia.

At the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a preliminary public hearing was held to confirm the military ROC for the additional construction of the Yi Sun-sin-class destroyer.

Two companies were invited for advice: Hyeonwoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering and Jaewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering.

Since both companies were already participating in the Yi Sun-sin-class construction, that was a natural result.

“Did Chairman Jin come directly?”

The Navy Chief of Staff, who found me, approached me with a surprised face.

Well, it must have been surprising to them that the group president, not even the representative of the shipbuilding company, would attend the same event today.

But given the importance of the matter, it cannot be helped.

It's not just about making money.

If we don't take the right path now, it will have a huge impact on our navy's power in the future.

“As the matter was a matter, I couldn’t help but be interested in it.”

I acted like it was nothing special.

Rather, as if I was fortunate enough to attend, the chief of the Navy's chief of staff expressed his harmony and suggested a seat, and I did not attend for a while and concentrated on the content of the meeting.

“I think it would be better for us to keep the specifications of the Yi Sun-sin-class destroyer to be built further according to the existing design plan. It will also prevent the time-consuming that comes from performing a separate design, and it will also provide convenience in operation.” . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hyeonu Shipbuilding insisted on maintaining the existing design for shortening construction time and ease of operation.

It's not something else, and the ease of operation is not to be ignored, so it's enough to get the attention of the people involved.

But the reaction was surprisingly cold.

“Moreover, if Aegis ships are already fully deployed in the future, anti-aircraft detection capabilities can be freely shared through the tactical data link. In the meantime, there is no reason to spend a lot of money to install a multi-band radar.”

Hyeon-woo, CEO of Chosun, who watched the generals for a while to see if he sensed the atmosphere, further explained.

Even if you look at it objectively, there is nothing wrong with it either.

Nevertheless, the faces of the navy officials did not know how to resolve, and for me, knowing the reason, I felt sorry for the CEO of Hyeonwoo Shipbuilding, who was only trying to get an advantage in winning the project.

'Tsuk, it would be absolutely absurd to ask the Navy, who has already tasted the sweetness, to be satisfied with the old system.'

No, it's not necessarily the case, but it would be difficult to convince me that it would be a comedy to deal with the powerful maritime powers of neighboring countries in the future with the current Yi Sun-sin level.

“What if all of the King Sejong-class ships in the fleet were to be hit?”

I suddenly asked a question.

Perhaps it was surprising that I took the initiative, the eyes of the officials were focused on me all at once.

“I’m sorry, but now that I’m listening to it, it feels like something I need to point out.”

“There is nothing to be sorry about. Anyway, I wanted to ask the same question.”

The naval chief of staff assisted with what he said as an excuse.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

Maybe it was a mistake, but the glance in his eyes felt like a smile that meant that he felt relieved passed by.

“I would love to hear the answer to that.”

The Chief of the Naval Chief of Staff urged Hyeonu Chosun representative to respond again.

As if it was an unexpected question, Hyeonu Chosun replies with a blushing face.

“According to the current construction plan, the number of Aegis ships to be deployed to our military in the future reaches nine. Is it possible that they all get hit?”

"Available. Aegis ships are not universal, and in the event of a war, Aegis ships are the first to be eliminated among the maritime forces.”

This time I did it instead.

Subduedly, the gaze of Hyeonu Chosun's representative turned to me, and I continued speaking towards the left.

“Especially when it comes to fighters with powerful submarine power or long-range supersonic anti-ship missiles, we can never be relieved.”

“·················ogue.”

Hyunwoo Chosun CEO Yoon chewed his lips.

what was previously spit out.

He spoke without hesitation.

“Of course, our Aegis ships have a longer detection range than existing Aegis ships and are well prepared for supersonic anti-ship missiles. So, there is not much concern about that part. However, we must not forget that there are always variables in battle, and victory or defeat is not determined solely by specifications in the catalog.”

“·················ogue.”

“If that were all, wouldn’t there have been no sinking of American Aegis ships by our Jang Bogo class submarines at Rimpac?

CEO Yoon became a dumbass with honey at those words.

And as if seeing it as an opportunity, the Chief of the Naval Chief of Staff implicitly asks me.

“Then I would like to hear some opinions from Jaewoo Chosun.”

“We recommend that, if at all possible, the Admiralty Yi Sun-sin-class multi-band AESA will be installed so that its own air defense is possible.”

“Then you have to keep in mind that you are going beyond your available budget.”

CEO Yoon immediately protested.

His gaze turned to me again, and I shrugged my shoulders.

“An increase in the budget is inevitable. However, if the number of modules is controlled within the tolerance of the ship, the increase in cost will not be so burdensome.”

“Even with radar, wouldn’t it be impossible to equip the existing Yi Sun-sin-class ships with weapons and combat systems to support them?”

"of course. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the light displacement to 6500 tons.”

“6500 tons?”

“Yes, then the full displacement will be about 8,000 tons.”

It was said with the Korean destroyer in mind that Korea had been promoting before returning.

A thing called KDDX.

“But the Navy wants to start building right away this year. When are you going to design the yard?”

As expected, CEO Yoon came out again with time as a weapon.

Whoops.

I immediately turned my gaze to the CEO of Jaewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, and when he received the signal, CEO Lee Yong took out the memory and shook it.

“If it is a design plan, it is already secured.”

“·················ogue.”
