Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Chapter 125

[welcome.]

It has been over a month since the incident in Iran has been quiet.

As predicted, Michael eventually visited Korea.

Perhaps it was because he knew that we were involved in this situation, and his expression on his way out of the VIP plane wasn’t as bright as usual.

[Did you know that our government has been turned upside down right now?]

Again, his first words were about the Iran situation.

As if he had in mind that the location was a military airport, he brought out the main point to me, ignoring the surrounding ears.

[I was just guessing. But we’re just selling weapons, and it’s up to the user to decide where to use them. In addition, Israel is a traditional ally of the United States and a country with which we maintain friendly relations. Also, it is not a place that places restrictions on arms sales like North Korea or other rogue countries. So, it’s not that we’re to blame for using our weapons to operate.][··········.][If we take that into account, wouldn’t it be a matter of condemnation for us to export arms to the United States as well?]

At that, Michael’s eyes twitched slightly.

That doesn’t mean that it’s not meant to be offensive.

Shortly as expected, Michael sighed and spoke again.

[To be honest, what Mr. Jin said now has become a topic of debate among our government as well.]

I looked at him silently and waited for the next words to come out.

Michael glanced at me again, suddenly smirked and continued.

[The funny thing is that there were quite a few people who supported Jaewoo by making that claim. Especially focusing on Jewish people.]

Actually, that was the corner I believed in.

The power of Jewish descent in American politics is soaring.

It would have been natural for them to take sides with me, who scratched their itch.

[So?][So yes. The answer is that I have stepped on Korean soil now.][··········.]

He tilted his head, not understanding the meaning.

He tapped my shoulder for a moment, and in an instant, his expression brightened and spoke.

[As a result, the US government has decided to dismiss South Korea’s ‘intervention theory’ in this Iran situation.]

Treating ‘facts’ as ‘theories’ was really an expression of our will to acquiesce to our intervention.

As he was about to smile at the thought that it was fortunate, he whispered to me in a whisper.

[To be honest, the debate was only temporary.][··········.][As our government, the desire to get rid of North Korean nuclear engineers was like a chimney, but if we directly intervened, the problem became more serious and we were just putting up with it. Because of that, some of the government felt relieved as if a sick tooth was missing.]

That was also understandable.

If a country like the United States had caused this incident, it would have become a topic of debate not only in the Middle East but also around the world.

In the midst of this, Israel must have been silent as it is now, since they removed the sick one earlier.

By the way, I don’t understand why he was scared in the first place when things were going that way.

[So, I want to see that drone.][··········.]

What, after all, was that the reason?

******

[You mean this little thing made such a huge difference?]

Michael, who faced the reality of the self-destruct drone, exclaimed.

But it’s still too early to be surprised.

I later told him that it was going to be equipped with a two-stage propulsion system and that it would have a multiple launch system, and after listening to the explanation the whole time, he first brought up the Iraq issue.

“Is this enough to deal with rebel forces in Iraq?”

Actually, that’s what I was thinking too.

He said it would be more efficient to deal with drones than to take the risk and send soldiers to the rebel suppression site every time.

In addition, drones have the highest operational efficiency in that they are equipped with a surveillance function and that they can precisely match the timing of an attack.

If this is really put into Iraq, it will be a means of saving countless soldiers from threats, unlike history.

[For us, it feels like the most innovative thing since Polar Bear.]

Michael showed his greed over and over again.

It is natural for the United States, whose top goal is to minimize the damage to its soldiers.

Then, as the negotiating board is in my favor, it is time to slowly put more sparks in.

[Was the Hellfire cost $120,000 per shot?][About that.][Honestly, isn’t it a bit of a loss to just pour it on the shit cars the rebels ride on?]

For a moment, Michael’s eyes narrowed.

He seemed to understand the meaning.

Unsurprisingly, he asked with a grin.

[Then what is the unit price of the self-destruct drone developed by Jaewoo?][It’s $30,000 per foot.][Well, isn’t that a lower price than a smart shell?][right.][How is that possible?][In the case of the smart shell, as it was the first attempt, the production yield of parts was also low, and the development cost was high. But now, with advanced MEMS technology, the manufacturing cost of sensors has been drastically reduced.]

As he shrugged his shoulders, Michael’s eyes lit up again.

To be honest, it’s stupid not to live at that level.

As expected, he immediately asked me when full development would end.

[If you hurry, you can finish it in 4 months. The problem is that the U.S. military does not have time to verify its operation…][I am responsible for that.]

Michael cut me off with a decisive attitude.

After a moment of silence, he twists his mouth and continues his words.

[Even though we have declared the end of the war, we are still practically waging a war. In that case, an excuse can be given that can significantly reduce the time for operation verification. Besides, this is something that can greatly affect the safety of soldiers, like the Polar Bear. So, I don’t think the parliament will have a specific operation verification period and raise an issue.]

He expressed his intentions with certainty.

He smiled in return for his answer and reached out to him.

[Jaewoo and the US Department of Defense are one step closer with this.][We always value our relationship with Jaewoo. Sometimes, there are people walking in the middle.]

Perhaps that was with Boeing in mind.

As soon as the words came out, I tried my luck with the feeling of confirming or accepting it.

[This is just in case, if we develop our own transport aircraft and other large military aircraft, is there any chance of another tackle from the State Department?][No, that probably won’t happen.][How is the manager so sure?][Boeing is the only place I can tackle that, but I don’t think it’s likely to happen again after drinking like that last time. Besides, the US State Department is in a state where it is difficult to force any more in that area.]

Apparently, that part was going the way I expected.

I did, but I wasn’t really sure.

I smiled at the thought of being lucky.

[By the way, have you heard of that North Korean agent?]

I looked at him again at the sudden spit.

At the moment when his expression seems dark for some reason, he spit out surprising words.

[Actually, I recently asked the CIA for some information about the man.][Why is the manager?][If Mr. Jin is in danger, it is difficult for our Ministry of National Defense as well.]

That was another unexpected word.

No, if you’re thinking of me that far, don’t tackle or even tackle it.

After all, it is the US military that attaches great importance to my relationship, not the US government, so it is understandable.

In other words, the government is the government, and the military is the military.

[Anyway, the CIA is weighing the possibility that the man is already dead.][········Why did you make such a prediction?]

I immediately asked in a puzzled mind.

Then Michael takes a step closer and suddenly mentions Natasha’s name.

[A woman named Natasha who is secretly protecting Mr. Jean now.]

It was no surprise that Michael knew her.

The fact that Russia and Korea were already developing missiles had already been fully revealed to the US by the last KMD announcement.

No, the US already knew it before, but it would be right to say that it was just silent.

After all, the brown bear project was started with the consent of the United States, and the missile development project was carried out under that name.

Anyway, if it was the United States, they would have continued to monitor me and my surroundings after that, so I wouldn’t have been able to know her existence unless I knew her.

[Why is she?][Recently, the CIA found the North Korean agent somewhere in her Seoul, and after she appeared there, the trace of the North Korean agent disappeared again.][What exactly does that mean?][Simply put, it is highly likely that a woman named Natasha killed the North Korean agent.][··········.]

******

A few days after Michael returned to America, he went to work as usual.

The person he glanced at before getting into the car was Natasha, who was watching me from afar.

As if surprised by her unusual behavior, her eyes met and she implicitly avoided her gaze.

‘Hmm······.’

Her naan shook her head as if she were purple.

But she was fussy the whole time, and in the end I got back in the car and headed to work.

“Did the president go to work?”

As I was about to take off my suit and hang it on a hanger, I heard CEO Kim’s words from outside.

As soon as he opens the door to see if there is something busy he enters the room.

“Did something else happen?”

“No, I have good news.”

“What news?”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Next year, the Ministry of National Defense is planning to start the search and development of the next tracked infantry fighting vehicle.”

For a moment, my mind was blown.

If it was a tracked infantry fighting vehicle that the military would raise a riot at this time, it would definitely mean the K21.

Finally, what is to come has come.

‘But why is it starting now?’

What was questionable was that.

According to the original history, it is normal that the search and development of the K21 began in earnest in 1999.

No, the original history of exploration and development started in 1995, but at that time, the K200 firepower enhancement plan emerged and was canceled.

After going through ups and downs, the original history is that exploration and development were confirmed again through Thales in 1999. Strangely, I could not find anything about K21 in the business field I looked at after I took over Thales.

Simply put, in the world I returned to, the K21 development project itself did not exist.

“When are you going to start next year?”

“The designation of the search and development company is scheduled for around July of this year.”

“Okay. This is an area where defense and Thales should cooperate as much as possible, so please contact the defense in advance.”

I said, suppressing my excitement.

K21.

In fact, it is another field that will become another huge future food.

Other than that, the ‘Redback’ developed based on the body of the K21 is to the extent that Australia and the US Army will be nominated as one of the models that will replace Bradley in the future.

It’s even weirder if you’re not excited about the birth of a product that will expand to a business scale of tens of trillions of won.

“Yeah, and. It is said that at the same time as selecting a search and development company for the next infantry fighting vehicle, a developer for the next tank will also be selected.”

I tilted my head at that.

Anyway, in the case of the K2 tank, Hyeonu Rotem has been selected as the developer for a long time.

Wouldn’t it be a contradiction to select it again?

“Are you saying that Hyeonu even gave up on development?”

“No, the Ministry of National Defense decided to develop its own power pack. That’s why I decided to select a business operator in that field.”

“Come now?”

Suddenly, I wondered if there was an error in my memory.

If you follow the history, it should have been in 2003 that you decided to develop your own power pack.

Moreover, in the K2 development issue, history was not particularly twisted.

The problem is that S&U, which should have left a stain on its history, is now on the verge of collapse, so the possibility of participating in the business is slim.

“Hmm.”

Can you make nuclear weapons too?
