Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Chapter 82

[The government has approved the merger of Jaewoo Aerospace and the Korean aerospace industry. In addition, after a due diligence process of about three months, it is likely that Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering will be taken over by Jaewoo. Some have revived the suspicion that the government’s decision was not a preference…]

After a while, KAI, who went through the live-action work, was finally put in Jae-woo’s arms.

As Vice President Kim said, there were all kinds of speculation through the media, but that was only a few days.

Our response, centered on the fast-paced Jaewoo group’s public relations department, dominated most of the media, and eventually, the tone of public opinion began to slowly change.

[It is true that the government continues to drag KAI under a heavy burden. Moreover, it is difficult to overlook the reason why the government attempted to integrate the aviation sector in the first place. Simply put, the merger of the two companies is in line with the government’s keynote. What’s more, what could be a problem if the existing major shareholders agree.]

our spokesperson. No, like the last words of the panelist, Samjeong, one of KAI’s major shareholders, readily agreed to hand over the stake.

Well, considering our relationship, it’s a natural result.

The only remaining two major shareholders are those owned by Hyeonu and Daeyou, but Daeyu’s stake was managed by the government due to the dissolution of the group anyway, so of course there was no problem with the takeover. They did not hesitate to reach an agreement as pressure was added.

[The question is how to solve the deficit.]

Sooner or later, the discussion turned to the problem of resolving the chronic deficit of KAI.

A strategy that puts the point one step ahead and naturally makes the previous topic a pre-established fact.

Of course, the side effects have to be dealt with, and thanks to this, the stock price of Jawoo Aerospace once flew by nearly 20 percent, which caused a ridiculous situation.

“Congratulations, Chairman.”

After that, the system integration work of KAI and Aerospace was carried out without any delay.

The first priority is the integration of design departments.

Thanks to that, I was going to be able to extract an average of 1500 blueprints a month soon, and it would not be unreasonable to challenge bulkhead production around the beginning of next year.

“As soon as the mid-term national defense plan is announced, I think we will have to obtain a flight permit from the military sooner or later.”

The Sukhoi aircraft, which had been sitting for a while, was in an atmosphere where it would be able to fly in the sky soon.

The purpose is to test the performance of the AESA that we have already developed for installation on our own fighter.

Now that there is, there is no need to add the trouble of flying to Israel to test the performance of the actual aircraft.

Tug, that’s why we need to have an aircraft that can be modified for testing equipment at will.

“That’s the moment I’m most looking forward to flying with our radar on.”

CEO Yoon looked as excited as I was.

Now, the person who will practically lead Aerospace as well as KAI.

Despite the added hardship, he was also quite pleased with KAI’s takeover.

“Oh yeah! I don’t know how the deal with Daeyu Shipbuilding is progressing.”

“Even if we do due diligence, it will be at a formal level in reality. After all, the debt relief will be done through the Korea Development Bank. In the meantime, we should do some on-site inspections.”

“You will be busy again for a while.”

“Hey, that’s life, so what can I do? Anyway, the size of the assembly building is huge.”

The last place we visited was the assembly building of the supersonic trainer, which was under development for a long time.

Another homework assignment that KAI had to take on with Jaewoo.

Come to think of it, I thought it was time to re-establish my relationship with Nokid Martin.

[Hello.]

I called immediately, thinking that there was no need to delay.

The recipient is Kevin Bryan.

He is the same person who was present in the United States when he met with Naval Chief of Staff Jeffrey.

– Anyway, I was about to go to Korea tomorrow.

Kevin’s voice as he answered the phone was exhilarating.

The news of Jae-woo’s acquisition of KAI was an issue they could not ignore.

If there was one thing that was different from before, it was that there was no sense of vigilance in the way he spoke.

[·······That is good. I also have quite a lot of stories to tell.]

******

[Long time no see.]

After a total of 13 hours of flight, Kevin arrived in Korea and went straight to the group headquarters.

Maybe it’s because he’s no longer an enemy, but a comrade who shares some business, and he certainly seems to have a much brighter expression than before.

[Congratulations. Are you saying that the mood of the integrated fighter business has turned to the Nokid again these days?]

According to recent news, the United States’ next integrated fighter business is running again in Nokid’s favor.

No matter how much improvement they came up with, they could not overcome the fundamental problems of Boeing’s design plan.

In the end, the F35 seems to see the light of day as scheduled.

[It’s a million blessings. By the way, when I look at Jaewoo these days, I feel embarrassed because I wondered if it was the Jaewoo I knew.]

He glanced into my eyes and trembled softly.

The situation indirectly expresses that we have grown on a formidable scale.

When I think about it, even I feel exasperated.

[Actually, what I want to say today is not to deal with the advanced trainer problem that Nokid and KAI are jointly developing.]

Kevin tilted his head at my implied words.

Seriously, I’m embarrassed to say that I’m going to go off topic right now because that’s the only thing Nokid and I need to meet.

He held his breath for a moment and then spoke.

[Before that, I want to check whether Nokid and Jaewoo can hold hands once again.][Holding hands again. Are you saying that Jaewoo will start the parts supply business again for us?][Is that so?][Then what the hell…?]

Kevin kept a puzzled expression on his face.

For a moment, I pulled the F-16 model out of the drawer and waved it at him.

[F-16. It is one of Nokid’s masterpieces, with thousands of units sold all over the world. Of course, about half of that amount was purchased by the US government, but even so, the quantity ordered from other countries is not insignificant. But one thing, among them, how many aircraft do you think do not need improvement?][··········.]

He remained silent.

[Actually, I’ve been thinking about it for a while. What will happen if the F-16 is equipped with the AESA developed by Jaewoo? Then, of course, the weapon system would have to be changed, and as a result, it would be a completely different aircraft than it is now.][What is that…]

That was the first thing I decided to try when I took over KAI.

Improvement of the F-16 through collaboration with Nokid.

If that is possible, the F-16 is a level that cannot be surpassed by the 4th generation aircraft.

In other words, it will be reborn as a 4.5th generation aircraft except for stealth performance, and then our power will jump at once.

Wherever that is, KAI’s finances, which are suffering from chronic deficits due to the huge number of radar supplies and remodeling projects, can be turned back to a surplus.

[How do you think like that…]

Kevin looked surprised.

But perhaps he realized that it wasn’t particularly impossible, and he immediately began to mutter with his bewildered face.

[If the radar is replaced, there will be no choice but to replace the avionics equipment, and then, of course, the cost of improving the performance will be…][That’s what I mean. In addition, in the case of an old aircraft, replacement of parts and engines will be carried out at the same time, and the scale of this business will be comparable to the sales business of any new fighter. No, considering the number of F-16s sold, the scale is larger than any other new fighter sales business.][··········.]

Kevin was excited the whole time he heard the story.

Well, it’s not that exciting if you’re not excited about a way to revive the aircraft that you’ve already decided to close the coffin lid to and make a profit.

But for a moment, he looks at me with narrowed eyes.

[I’m just saying, how much limit do you put on the radar’s performance?]

That was, of course, a question that could arise.

There’s no reason to make the export version an original until you’re not an idiot.

Nevertheless, the reason for asking that was probably because he was worried that the merits would decrease due to excessive downgrade, but in fact, there is nothing to worry about.

[No matter how downgraded, AESA is AESA. Aren’t you well aware that it is fundamentally different from the mechanical radar that the existing F-16 is equipped with?][That’s right. I admit it was a stupid question. Anyway, no matter how much I think about it, I don’t think this question can be answered in my line, could you give me some time?]

Kevin took a step back.

It is not simply a measure, and perhaps it is a project that will grow in size if it becomes a reality, so it seems difficult to draw conclusions in my own line.

[I will give you any time. One thing to keep in mind is that we, Jaewoo, want to build a stronger relationship with Nokid through this business. Well, even though there have been bad things in the past, why should a businessman do stupid things that only stick to the past?][··········.]

Kevin looked at me intently at those words.

It’s as if they’re trying to hide the truth of the words.

Soon, he stood up from his seat and held out his hand with a grin.

[Looking at you, I think it’s a good thing I didn’t turn Jaewoo into an enemy until the very end. All right, I’ll report it to the superiors as soon as I get back.]

[The government has announced a long-term defense plan that will be carried out over the next 10 years from next year. Among the contents of the project, not only the development of its own fighter, but also the establishment of the Korean Aegis system. It is also known that the project to secure medium-sized submarines is the main goal, and it has been revealed that it also includes securing a large amount of medium-range ballistic missiles.][The officials are judging that the government’s main point of the power enhancement project is a kind of hedgehog strategy.]

A few days later, the government announced the medium-term defense plan as scheduled.

As expected, the first thing the media talked about was concerns about excessive spending for the size of the national economy.

But to his dismay, full support from both the ruling and opposition parties continued, and a strange phenomenon occurred where only the media who pointed out that part were stupid.

“What the hell is going on…?”

In fact, I was perplexed by the cooperation between the ruling and opposition parties on this issue of increasing defense spending.

As it turns out, the ruling and opposition parties that I know had a habit of biting each other once they caught a pod.

In fact, it must have contributed to the fact that I could not ignore the public opinion that ‘if it is used for the importation of arms, we welcome donations!’, but even so, it was the first time in my life that I saw the opposition parties unite like that.

‘By the way, is it surprising that the poison sting strategy, which will only be implemented in 2020, has already been implemented…?’

The massive expansion of missile forces virtually coincided with the poison sting strategy implemented by the South Korean military before the return.

In a nutshell, if you touch it, you will create a swampy field that is comparable to the damage caused by nuclear weapons.

A strategy that at least you won’t be perfect if you touch me.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Perhaps because of that, the reaction of the foreign media concerned this time has also increased significantly.

[The Japanese government is expressing serious concerns about our large-scale electricity augmentation project. In particular, the mass deployment of strategic ballistic missiles is said to be aimed at Japan […]

“You said it right.”

In fact, Japan’s argument was not wrong as far as the issue of missile power expansion was concerned.

There is no reason to deploy a large number of medium-range missiles if only to deal with North Korea.

Perhaps sooner or later, the other side will come up with a countermeasure, but you can guess what it is.

They also have long-range strike means.

“Ttttttt…….”

But it won’t be easy.

For that to be possible, constitutional revision is necessary, but the atmosphere in Japan at this time is not yet anti-Korean to the point where that is possible, and the far-right dominance of political power is not perfect.

Considering that, in fact, the government’s action now may be better.

Just like being beaten becomes a habit and you lose your senses later.

If you touch it like this in advance, wouldn’t they also become immune?

[The Chinese government is also showing a sensitive reaction to the issue of mass deployment of our medium-range ballistic missiles. In the worst case, it suggested that economic exchanges between the two countries could be seriously damaged […]

“Yeah, it might be better for the exchange with China to decrease now. That way, I won’t make the mistake of being hit in the back of the head by investing too much in you.”

I listened to the reactions of neighboring countries almost all day.

Interestingly, the United States and Russia are still quiet.

Well, Russia isn’t the only one with us anyway, so even so, the US was a bit surprising.

what the hell

The reason why we remain silent even when we are so disturbed by the Northeast Asian region.

Follow me!

As I was thinking about it for a while, my phone rang.

A number pattern that looks like an international call.

As soon as the call button is pressed, Hassad’s voice resounds.

– Long time no see, Chairman Jin.

In fact, it couldn’t have been that long.

In the meantime, we have had countless exchanges of opinions through the Saudi Sovereign Wealth Fund Steering Committee.
