-What else is that...

[Because if that really happened, our relationship would have deteriorated irreversibly.]

Michael was silent about that.

He must have been embarrassed by the overly harsh expression.

But if things really went that way, things would have been worse.

It is unacceptable for the people of this country to become a normal Japanese nation apart from other things.

A powerless government will succumb to US pressure at first, but in the end, it will not be able to overcome the resentment of the people of this country and will respond, wouldn't that be a shortcut to worsening relations with the US?

-It could have been something... But that's no longer a thing, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Afterwards, I heard Michael's voice again, and it felt like he was trying to exhort me.

Anyway, Japan's rearmament issue has crossed the water, so it seems like it's time to understand one missile and move on.

But for a moment, I thought that the situation was a bit strange, and I laughed out loud inside.

After all, I am not even the president of this country.

Even so, Michael's attitude, who is finally trying to convince me, is also the same.

Also my attitude to finally tackle this issue.

[Even so, if you allow one, it will be possible to allow two later.]

But it can't be helped under such circumstances.

As it turns out, in negotiation, the one who has more grip on the opponent's weaknesses has an advantage.

-Hmm······.

Michael let out a long sigh as if he was deeply troubled.

Soon he secretly emphasizes his position and tries to get out of the conversation.

-I have to remind you that no matter how much you stress it to me, it's useless. I'm a soldier, not a government official.

[Who doesn't know that? However, there are few people who can breathe in the government as much as the head of the department.]

Michael nodded and spit out a sound of pain in response to the casual spit.

someone nearby soon. At first glance, I wanted to leave a message of understanding to the woman who I thought was his wife, and then he continued talking to me again.

- It's not that there aren't many ways.

It was a meaningful fight for some reason, so I immediately listened.

From the other side of the receiver, the sound of a door slamming shut was heard, followed by unexpected words.

-It is difficult to ignore the demands of lawmakers who have passed over to the lobby anyway. No, it's close to impossible.

[As long as the situation is the situation.]

- By the way, I'd like to think about reducing the range drastically. Wouldn't that lessen the burden on Korea?

If that's possible, the worst might be avoided.

Anyway, as he said, it is unreasonable to give up US lawmakers whose pro-Japanese behavior is deeply rooted.

Therefore, Japan's possession of supersonic anti-ship missiles cannot be prevented, but the way is to put another shackle by limiting the range.

But the problem remains.

[I'm sorry, but our government doesn't have the lobbying ability to make it happen. No, even if they lobby, it is questionable whether lawmakers who are already immersed in Japanese lobbying will be persuaded. Perhaps, for that to be possible, there must be an existence with the power to silence lawmakers at once, but a person capable of doing so...

As I spoke, my eyes suddenly opened.

Suddenly, I thought of something that could do that.

Perhaps I noticed something in my reaction, I heard laughter from the other side of the receiver.

- That's right, Chairman Liam is enough. He is going to visit Korea at the end of this month. How about meeting him?

[Chairman Liam is coming to Korea? For what?]

-Nominally, he said he was attending as a representative of the Korean government to congratulate the newly elected president of Korea. However, there is a theory that his true purpose is Chairman Jin.

[··········.]

******

[This morning, our government expressed deep concern about Japan's development of supersonic anti-ship missiles. The reaction of the Japanese cabinet to that has not yet been reported.]

A few days later, the government issued an official comment on Japan's delayed missile development.

However, Japan's reaction was completely ignored.

Perhaps it was a feeling of confidence stemming from the idea that the United States still regards itself as more important than Korea in Asia.

"Hmm······."

Of course, that wasn't a very bad idea.

It is true that the United States has traditionally favored Japan over Korea, and it has strategic value.

But that too is a thing of the past. No, it must have been before the return.

Unlike before, Korea is now in a position to share values ​​with the United States.

Of course, Japan, which had been entirely on the side of the US for a long time, should be swept away in one day, but from an objective point of view, it is true that Korea has a stronger relationship with the US than with Japan.

[The government has informed us that the hypersonic cruise missile, which has been under development, has been successfully developed. In addition, it was decided to hold a public event to the public in the future.

Another few days later, the government eventually came up with a means of warning against the unresponsive Japan.

Nevertheless, the Japanese cabinet does not show any reaction.

It may have been an attitude of being dubious, but more precisely, there was a strong possibility that it was silence caused by embarrassment.

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

A week later, at the will of the president, a public event for a hypersonic cruise missile was finally held at Daegu Airport.

Since it is news of the development of a weapon with such a huge impact, both domestic and foreign media have flocked to it.

Moreover, in the case of Russia, it is a situation that has not yet been made public, so nominally we are announcing the fact that we are developing the world's first hypersonic cruise missile.

It would be a natural result to have a large scale of interest.

Easy profit!

The size of the missile was rather large because the improvement had not been carried out yet.

Thanks to this, the aircraft mobilized for the air launch test was the KF-02. That is, our own fighter we developed.

Even so, since the size of the suspended missile was so large, voices were heard from all over the place worried about whether it would be able to fly while carrying it.

“Can you really fly with that heavy thing?”

As if concerned, the President asked me in a low voice.

But that's the KF-02. No, it's a treatment that ignores the amount of explosions of the Ghost Eagle.

I nodded my head resolutely, and he looked shyly back at the fighter just getting ready for takeoff.

“By the way, when will the development of the fifth-generation aircraft start?”

I looked at the president again at the sudden question.

As soon as I saw it, I felt like I was greedy.

He smiled and said to him.

“I would like the development to be completed in about three years at the latest.”

“So fast?”

“There is no reason to take any time. In fact, when it comes to the transition to the 5th generation, the only remaining task is to complete the internal weapons window and have a system that safely launches missiles from there, which is already showing some results.”

“But wouldn’t the design be redesigned to install internal armament windows on that aircraft?”

The president made a rather skeptical point, unexpectedly.

If it's normal, it's a normal process.

However, it should be kept in mind that the development project of that fighter was originally aimed at the 5th generation.

“As you may not have known, the fuselage of that Ghost Eagle was designed in the form of an empty space for the internal weapon window to be installed from the beginning. Therefore, even if it is upgraded to the 5th generation aircraft in the future, the proportion of redesign is not very large. Well, if you make a separate 5th generation without upgrading the aircraft, you can just use it as a fuel space.”

"Oh oh!"

The president let out a sigh.

The moment you hear the sound of the fighter raising the engine's power.

It soon started running down the runway and soared into the sky at once, even with the heavy missile suspended.

“Twitter, this is what I was worried about.”

The president frowned at the sight of the fighter that took off so easily.

Another KF-02 taking off in the meantime.

It was an auxiliary aircraft used to film the missiles being launched from the air.

“You can see the screen over there.”

When I saw that the two fighters were out of sight, I quickly pointed my finger at the side of the runway.

Perhaps my hand was a signal, a huge screen suddenly lit up and the image of the fighter that had just taken off was reflected.

[The launch will be counted.]

The announcement announced that the missile had entered a state of preparation for launch.

As soon as the number becomes 0, the missile fell off the fighter with a bang.

After that, it was ignited in just one second and flew toward the other side of the sky in an instant, emitting a huge smoke.

"What speed...."

Seeing the missiles that disappeared in an instant, there was a lot of cheers here and there.

However, that is a speed that has not yet entered the realm of hypersonic speed.

It's going to be a huge speed of up to Mach 9 soon, but it's just a pity that we couldn't capture it on the screen.

[All guests in the hall. The launched missile will soon collide with a barge in the South Sea.]

In the announcement that was heard again, it was announced that the missile would soon reach its target in the South Sea.

Just a few minutes after launch.

People focused on the screen again with a startled expression, and at that moment, something crashed and passed by the barge that appeared on the screen.

thud!

Although the test was conducted with the warhead removed, the damage to the barge was enormous.

The impact of the collision energy was that great.

Even more surprising was that the missile's trajectory continued through the large number of containers, which meant that the speed and the magnitude of the impact energy were enormous.

“Heh heh… that’s enough to sink any number of traps in one hit.”

The president, who was watching, exclaimed with resentment.

Unlike the previous president, he did not have much military knowledge.

I tried to add more explanation.

“If there is a warhead attached to it, it will be possible to sink an aircraft carrier as well.”

“I hope.”

The president responded with a tone of disbelief.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

As if frustrated, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff added strength to my words.

“Hypersonic missiles are different from other missiles that simply rely on the firepower of their warheads. In particular, if it collides at a speed of Mach 9, the destructive power is greatly amplified by the kinetic energy. As Chairman Hani-Jin said, it is not unreasonable for the carrier to be sunk.”

“·················ogue.”

The president finally lowered his chin at those words.

As soon as he looked at the screen again, the expression of regret was drawn on his face.

Looking at him puzzledly, he spits out words.

“I don’t think I did anything wrong with this.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Isn’t that scene not only focused on Japan but also other countries? I am concerned that this may not have just raised my vigilance.”

“·················ogue.”

I was a bit perplexed by that statement.

No, does that mean that you didn't even think about it and decided to reveal it?

For some reason, a strange thought enters my mind that I will have to oppose his stubbornness at least once in the future.

“By the way, I wonder how China will react to seeing that. It's Japan's reaction anyway, even if I say I don't care..."

Actually, I'm curious about that too.

For those who are eager to own a 10,000-ton destroyer for a while, that would be news that would be terrific.

That being said, this public event isn't all that bad.

For them, this is a clear warning.

'Yeah, I don't know if that's a good thing. Even if it's already recently, it could be a clear warning to those who come and go around the neighborhood like eating. Anyway, why? Unlike before, the reason for encroaching on Ieodo is...

As I was deep in thought, a thought suddenly came to my mind.

China's attitude is pushing its head in spite of the US pushing it so hard.

This feels like the footsteps of someone who has something to protect.

"Hmm······."

“Why?”

The president reacted to a sigh that was unintentionally exhaled.

There is something I can guess, but it is still difficult to put it in my mouth.

I shook his head with a shy smile.

"it's nothing."

“·················ogue.”

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-171
