Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

For a moment, the hall shook.

To put it simply, this means that the design of the ship was made in advance without the military's request.

That's not easy in this country's military industry system.

His eyes turned to me again, and I responded with a look that didn't look like anything special.

“Jaewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering is also considering exporting warships to allied countries in Asia in the future. That is why we have been designing ships with downgraded combat systems.”

People were quite shocked by those words.

Well, so far we've had warships. There is no history of exporting anything equipped with a combat system.

In fact, even if it's an excuse, it's something to think about.

I don't know now, but in the future, in terms of keeping China in check.

“Can I have a look at the design?”

The Navy Chief of Staff, who was watching, asked Lee Yong.

His gaze slowly turned to me, and as soon as he nodded his head, CEO Lee Yong immediately headed for the podium.

Tick!

After a while, several image files appeared on the screen of the public hearing hall, which was turned off.

The ship has a sleek and futuristic look thanks to its integrated mast and stealth design.

Maybe after a while, someone will chant the word mini Aegis trap.

“Are you going to turn Yi Sun-sin-class into a mini Aegis trap?”

Unsurprisingly, the expected words soon came.

The sound was heard from the place where officials from the Defense Acquisition Program Administration had gathered.

The person waving up and beckoning to the screen was also the head of the Bangsa agency.

"That's right. The size of the vertical launch pad is about 60 to 70 cells. As a result, it is possible to mount supersonic anti-ship missiles as well as new anti-submarine guided missiles currently being developed by ADD. In that case, it will be possible to continue anti-aircraft and anti-submarine operations on its own, even if there is a problem with King Sejong the Great.”

“But isn’t that an over-extension of power?”

The director of the DAPA immediately expressed a negative opinion on my reply.

After making eye contact with him for a moment, he asked with a serious expression on his face.

“Do you believe in the countries around us now?”

“Suddenly, what is that…”

“Even though it’s China, do you believe in Japan?”

“·················ogue.”

“It’s not something I’m going to talk about here, but honestly, I think Japan has a lot of potential to become our virtual enemy.”

At those words, the hall shook.

In fact, even if you thought so, it was not easy to talk about it in public at a time when it was not easy to talk about it in a public place. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

But now you have to change your mind.

If a country that has already fought an economic war is an enemy, who is the enemy?

If you're not vigilant even after being like that, you're just stupid.

“How can Japan become our enemy?”

Ah... the fool was right in front of me.

“You don’t have to make a fist fight to be an enemy.”

“·················ogue.”

“There are few enemies who spit at us with hostility.”

“·················ogue.”

“Anyway, right now, Japan alone has a total of six Aegis ships. In the meantime, the plan to build six more ships came into effect two years ago, and three ships are already under construction. The problem is that in the case of Japan, not just the Aegis ships, but the overall scale of the ships is incomparable to ours. How do you plan to overcome that?”

“·················ogue.”

“But do we have the budget to secure the same number of destroyers as Japan right now? In the end, if the quantity cannot be satisfied, the quality has to be improved. However, if the performance of this design is at a level that can withstand the quantity offensive to some extent. Well, it will eventually reach its limit in the not too distant future.”

The head of the Bangsa Department glanced around at those words.

The stinging eyes of naval officials are all on him.

Perhaps he was conscious of that, his lips, which had been muttering about to speak again, were firmly closed.

“What's more, China is now realizing a massive increase in its naval power. Can you guess to what extent it will expand?”

I put the Chinese move in my mouth to put a wedge.

Their recently revealed plan to augment their maritime forces has now become a fact that everyone in this room knows.

If you don't know anything else, it must have been a bone-breaking word.

“That is a problem.”

The naval chief of staff tacitly assisted me.

Suddenly, he looked at me with doubts in his eyes.

As for how China can build ships equipped with Aegis systems.

To be honest, this is embarrassing for me too, but if you think about it in detail, there are parts that you can understand.

Considering the fact that China has been trying to steal technology from the whole world before that anyway.

Moreover, it has been faster since my return, considering that there have been past conflicts with the United States over that issue.

“Yes, for us.”

But... even if I did claim it, it wouldn't be too much of a concern.

In the end, the technology they could have taken was not ours, but the American Aegis system.

It's a thing of the past, not the present, and it's obvious if it's an air defense detection system built on that basis.

Moreover, it is unthinkable to fully implement it with the current level of technology in China.

Is it just an imitation in moderation?

No, I would be happy if I yielded a hundred times and followed only 50% of the performance.

‘Before the return, the Chinese 055 class destroyers proved that. The ability of their air-to-air defense system, which had an accuracy rate of less than 30%, let alone detection rate.’

“Okay.”

The head of the bangbang groaned in pain and sat down.

As if it was still an opportunity, the Chief of Naval Operations intervened again.

“I will also mention one point you should keep in mind. China is a problem in the future, but also the fact that we will now be in the position of the US's number one ally. It makes it more likely that we will have to go on an expedition we don't want.”

“Are we going on an expedition?”

The head of the bureau asked with a surprised face.

The eyes of the chief of the Navy's chief of staff looking at him with a smirk are ferocious.

“Then did the United States just upgrade us to the number one ally?”

“·················ogue.”

“Anyway, in that case, it is impossible to send an Aegis ship blindly, so of course Yi Sun-sin-class will be deployed, but it is difficult to prepare for all-round threats with Yi-sin-class power. So, of course, we should consider expanding the level of the newly built traps.”

The naval chief of staff's assertion struck a strong blow.

Actually, that was something I wanted to say, but I had been putting up with it.

As it turns out, there is no such thing as unfounded favor.

The claim that the United States did not upgrade Korea to the No. 1 ally for nothing.

In the end, as the president said, the US thinks that it is to be used as a card for future pressure on the Middle East or China, and it is true that Yi Sun-sin's expansion is necessary in terms of preparing for it.

“·················ogue.”

The hall was filled with silence for a moment.

It's confusing because even the unexpected part was mentioned.

Now that I look at it, it seems that the president is also making a decision, but he seems somehow different today.

Also, he knows exactly what the situation is.

As well as the attitude that does not back down when it comes to dealing with him.

‘President Kim Hae-woong. If he does this well, I wonder if there is a possibility that he will become chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the next administration?’

******

“Thanks for your comments.”

On the way back from the public hearing.

The Chief of Naval Staff rushed to me and said,

He was still curious, so the moment he held his outstretched hand with a smile on his face, he tightened his hand.

“I wish I had more time to talk with Chairman Jin.”

Maybe it's because the code was correct.

To put it simply, he, like me, was curious about the person he could talk to.

There is no particular reason to refuse, so when he promises to come later, he holds out his hand again with a bright smile.

“Then, if you have time, please contact me.”

“Yeah, let’s set up a seat soon.”

"Oh!"

As I was about to get into the car, he turned me back on.

What else do I have to say?

Looking at him indifferently, he throws out unexpected words.

“Have you heard of the recent army news?”

"which······."

“Lieutenant General Lee Jeong-ho, who was at the forefront of opposing the government’s reduction of the army, made a reservation. And he immediately joined the opposition.”

It was somewhat predictable.

After all, most of the generals who opposed the current government's policies were more like politicians than soldiers, and they didn't hide it themselves.

But what does that have to do with me?

When he tilted his head in a puzzled mind, President Kim Hae-woong spoke again.

“The problem is not that I joined the opposition, but that I got on the line of CEO Lee Yong-jae. As you know, Lee Yong-jae is a representative politician who expressed a negative stance on military reform. So, if CEO Lee Yong-jae becomes the next presidential contender, and Lieutenant General Lee Jung-ho claims himself as his henchman, I am worried about what will happen from then on. Honestly, as a military contractor, Jaewoo, isn’t that something to be worried about?”

He was cautious the entire time he spoke.

Do you feel concerned about giving the impression of being involved in politics by swearing at political soldiers with your mouth?

However, only from the position of representing the military, of course, that level of opinion can be expressed.

He responded with an expression that he didn't want to blame him for his attitude.

“But there is no guarantee that the government will pass over yet.”

“Do you really think so?”

He looked straight at me and asked.

Then, I felt like a chimney to ask why you are so sure that the regime will pass, but I gave up on that because I was looking around right now.

“Well, actually, that’s something only the sky knows. Anyway, I just wanted to point out that a dark period could come to our military if that became a reality. So, don't worry too much about what I'm saying, and go back carefully."

He hurriedly gathered his words and turned around.

Looking at his distant back, the person that comes to mind is Minister Lee Dong-wook.

For some reason, that back view of him and President Kim strangely overlaps.

“Do you expect the government to change?”

For me, that was surprising.

Of course, if you compare it to history, it's true, but in reality, many things have changed, so even I wasn't sure about that.

To be honest, compared to before the return, it is difficult to find the government's mistakes now, but I do not know what basis he is talking about the possibility of regime change.

"Hmm······."

Of course, there are concerns.

Especially the discord between the ruling party leader and the president.

The clash between the two, which started last year, was expanding its scope in all areas, giving the people more and more fatigue.

Where is that, the various shovels of the ruling party lawmakers who are getting more and more serious also play a role.

'Actually, that's more of a problem. Recently, even within the ruling party, the fight for rice bowls has been so fierce that if it continues like this, in the process of asserting a supreme runner-up, it could lead to mischief.”

The deeper the thought, the more frowned upon.

Rep. Lee Joo-hyuk, who showed strong charisma in this economic war with Japan and emphasized the presence of the opposition party, came to mind next.

Somehow, anticipation for him is starting to fill up.

‘Even if the government changes, I don’t know if that level of people will rise to the presidency. By the way, is the future really not that far ahead?’

******

“CEO Kim Young-gi is here.”

The next day, he was visited by CEO Kim at the same time as he went to work.

I look at him wondering if he's been here since morning for some other reason, and he shrugs and brings in a paperwork for approval.

"What is this?"

“The military has confirmed the complex rifle business this morning.”

That meant that the operator of K11, which had been in progress, was confirmed.

It was six months ago that the performance test of the gun part was again conducted after the performance comparison test of the fire control device.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

I didn't pay attention to it because the news was sparse for a while, but it seems that the business has been confirmed.

“Just by looking at the face of the CEO, you can tell that we were selected as a business operator.”

“Yes, there is no need to go to the second round, it was already confirmed in the first round.

Perhaps it was a natural result.

In the case of the 5.56mm rifle that makes up the main body, it surpasses the level of the DSAR-15P developed by Dasan before the return.

Where is that, the efficiency of the battery, including the control system. In addition, the 25mm projectile that fulfills the dual purpose is also incomparable to the existing ones.

If there is one disappointment, the reality is that even after developing an excellent 5.56mm, it has to be applied only to the K11, but that is because the budget is an issue, so there is no room for me to intervene.

“By the way, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Kim Tae-ik conveyed the opinion that he would like to meet the Chairman.”

At that time, CEO Kim spit out a hint.

It was a meaningful expression for some reason, so when he tilted his head, he couldn't control the smile that came out of him and said:

“It seems that the army, which is still full of dissatisfaction, has exploded this time.”

“Exploding, what do you mean?”

It was a word that somehow didn't fit with his expression, so he added to his doubts. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

No, now that the discontent of the army has exploded, it's no laughing matter, right?

In a moment, CEO Kim twists his lips again and says:

“The problem is that their dissatisfaction exploded as an opportunity for us.”

“·················ogue.”

“I did that to Kim Tae-ik, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in the army. The Air Force and Navy are currently increasing their power tremendously, so the Army cannot be the only one.”

“But the army also improved and introduced the next tank and K9. And the development of the K21 is in progress, isn’t it?”

“That’s the business that was planned from the beginning, so it’s not something I want to promote.”

“Then what should I do?”

“They asked us to advance the modernization of the army. So, what was discussed was that the army would also consider the full introduction of Polar Bears, but that is not possible right now.”

“So?”

“So, after sorting out and sorting out, the JCS eventually proposed a personal equipment replacement project. Simply put, we will replace the existing K1 and K2 with new rifles. And it seems that they have decided to complete the supply of the new body armor, which has been supplied mainly to the front forces so far.”

I did the math in my head for a while.

About 45% of the new body armor is already distributed, so that's out of the question.

Our DSAR-15P has a price that is a quarter of that of the HK416 series, which costs 4 million won.

No, to be precise, I should say JWAR-15P and JWAR-15PC (shortened)?

Now that I have decided to use that formal name.

Anyway, even if they were to be supplied to the entire army, only 500 billion won would be enough.

‘Of course, 500 billion is not a small amount, but where does that compare to the cost of increasing the air force and naval power currently in progress?’

The government is likely to accept it.

fuck.

I couldn't control the laughter that was engulfing me.

Honestly, what does that amount of money mean to Jaewoo?

What excites me now is that I have finally been given the opportunity to raise the level of combat power of the soldiers of this country, and the impact it will have on America.

Even if it has the same performance, if it is a quarter of the price, it is natural that the US will be harsh.

“Tell me to see you tomorrow.”
