Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?
Chapter 112
Follow me!
The next day, I received a phone call from the Israeli Defense Minister who was waiting.
- Haven't you had anything special in the meantime? I'm living a crazy life because of the Yankees who come and bother me very often.
His tone was still unpretentious.
Because he has already experienced it, he is now in a state of apprehension rather than embarrassment.
-Actually, the delivery date of HVP is...
After that, we talked for almost an hour to discuss all matters related to the Iron Dome delivery.
And as soon as the process of checking was finished, I impliedly asked him.
[Minister, has the IBIS (Israel ascending stage interception system) project that was being developed in Israel been completely abolished?]
-IBIS? That was abolished in 1999. Well, the budget is a budget, but I know there were some technical difficulties. As Chairman Jin knows, that's why our military is now operating a Heron instead of a high-altitude surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft. Frankly, in a situation in which Iraq has collapsed, a Heron-class reconnaissance aircraft is more useful to us than a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft.
Unfortunately, the abolition of IBIS seemed to follow the flow of history.
As he was about to give up his thoughts with regret, he suddenly delivered an encouraging news.
-If you do not know the reason but are curious about IBIS, how about contacting the IAI company? Even if it was abolished, the related materials would still be stored.
Come to think of it, so was he.
In the beginning, the core operator of IBIS was IAI.
In a situation where the abolition of the business was not too long ago, there is a high possibility of securing data.
In addition, if my memory is correct, I know that Heron's manufacturing technology was based on the HA-10 high-altitude drone, which was the core of IBIS.
In other words, the related technology is not dead at all.
[It's embarrassing, but could the minister give me a leg?]
-·········.
He was silent for a moment at my sudden request.
When he wonders what he's thinking, he says in a low voice.
- Judging by the fact that Chairman Jin is very interested, it seems that he is planning to start a high-altitude drone business with IAI.
[Yes, I would like to confirm the intention first.]
-But have you never heard of the government-led drone business in Korea? If that had happened, IAI and other military companies would have already rushed in, but I haven't heard of such a rumor.
[That is correct. Our government is not yet planning a drone acquisition project. This is entirely what Jaewoo wants to do independently.]
-·········.
He was silent again.
After all, it must be a shock that we are not a large American defense company and have our own drone business.
However, Jaewoo's financial power is enough to make it possible now, so I will not hesitate to lead the development of whatever it is, as long as it has sufficient marketability.
-Recently, you heard that Jaewoo is rising to the top of the global defense industry rankings. Anyway, I see. We will try to contact IAI soon.
He hung up the phone with a positive answer.
The moment I put down the receiver with a smile, thinking that hope could see a light, I saw Vice President Kim, who was sitting on the sofa opposite me, staring blankly at me.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“Are you really going to start your own drone business?”
“There is nothing that cannot be done. It is not a business that costs tens of billions of dollars. Even if it costs tens of trillions of won, we now have the capacity to handle it.”
“·················ogue.”
“And in the case of unmanned aerial vehicles, the future market potential is limitless. Even if it is not a problem for our military, it is an area that we must advance into one day.”
“·················ogue.”
Vice President Kim still had a blank expression on his face.
Well, it's a natural result for him who doesn't know what kind of paradigm the future arms market will face.
Consistently smiling, he brings the report he had in front of me.
"What is this?"
“It is said that in a week, the 3,000-ton class submarine will begin construction in earnest.”
With that said, he looked at the document again.
Confirmation of acceptance of high-tensile steel ordered for construction.
Although I personally ordered the order, the amount is really shabby.
“Because it is HY-130 class, the price is not a joke.”
HY-130 was a high-tensile steel for submarines developed by the United States.
The funny thing is that the US, which developed it, is not using it because of its excessively high price.
No, at least, in the case of Virginia class, HY-80 class rather than HY-100 class was mainly used, which is quite ironic.
“I’m just saying this just in case, are you really not planning on painting the entire HY-130-class ship?”
“Please. Then how are you going to cover the cost? That high-tensile steel will be used for framing.”
“It is fortunate. I also doubted whether the president was thinking of taking on the deficit.”
“Honestly, it is true that I want to paint the entire hull with it. As you know, Japanese Soryu-class submarines use their own standard NS110 for framing, which is higher than the HY-130.”
“I know that, but to be honest, there are so many parts of their raw steel technique that it’s hard to fully believe it.”
On that point, I'm a little skeptical.
Although Japan's technology is excellent, the fact that the performance of the NS110 they developed surpassed that of the HY-130 is not really reliable.
“Still, we have to do the best we can. By the way, what is the maximum depth of submersion of a Soryu-class submarine?”
“It's highly confidential, so I don't know for sure. But if the high-tensile steel they used really surpassed the HY-130, it would be around 650 meters.”
“Did we expect the 3000-ton class we designed to be around 600 meters?”
“It is, but honestly, I think the maximum depth of submergence would be similar. Then, in the end, the performance difference is determined in other areas, and I actually think our submarines have the upper hand.”
Vice President Kim said confidently.
The reason is obviously the battery that we will adopt in the future, unlike them.
To be honest, I have the same thoughts as him in that regard.
A submarine equipped with an all-solid-state battery that has no risk of explosion, can significantly reduce charging time, and can increase operation time by up to 9 times is no different compared to a nuclear-powered submarine.
“But has the all-solid-state battery really been developed already?”
“In fact, it has already been developed to a level that can be used for automobiles and submarines.”
“Then why haven’t you commercialized it yet?”
“This is because the ionic conductivity at room temperature is still low, so it is difficult to use it for electronic products. Well, it will be completely resolved by next year. Anyway, in the case of submarines, if the thermal management system is applied, the efficiency can be maximized, so there is practically no problem.”
Vice President Kim had a very excited expression on his face.
Even though he retired immediately, he still couldn't let go of his love for the military.
But when I see it, even I have high expectations.
“Oh my gosh, the time is already like this.”
I glanced at the clock, and it was already 2:00 PM.
Now renamed to Jaewoo Commercial Vehicle.
My appointment with the former CEO of Daeyou Trucks was less than two hours away.
“Be aware of this, because I will be moving to Jaewoo commercial vehicle due to the problem of establishing a commercial truck factory.”
At that, Vice President Kim quickly grabbed his suit.
Looking at him puzzledly, he smiles meaningfully.
“Actually, I also have a job to go to the Jaewoo commercial vehicle.”
“Why the Vice President?”
“The Blue House commissioned Thales to produce a vehicle for the president, and we need to negotiate on that issue.”
“The Blue House asked Thales to build a vehicle for the president?”
“Yeah, I got a call from my office yesterday.”
“If you’re going to ask for a dedicated vehicle, would it be better to leave it to Hyeonu?”
That was honestly surprising.
After all, in the case of a dedicated vehicle, it is not a common practice to remodel what has already been commercialized.
But why is that in Thales...
“I was also bewildered because it was such an unexpected proposal, but the Blue House offered an opinion about applying the composite material applied to Polar Bear to the limousine being produced by Ssangwoong Motors.”
"Ah······."
A thought that was quite plausible ran through my head.
After all, Ssangwoong Motors was producing luxury vehicles in the form of limousines based on Mercedes-Benz.
If the composite material applied to Polar Bear is applied to it, there is a high possibility that a bulletproof vehicle that is different from the existing ones will be born.
“I don’t know who it is, but it’s pretty good. Do you think like that?”
“It was a car that I was also admiring. By the way, when Polar Bear's protective power is applied, isn't it just like an armored car?"
No, even if it was an armored vehicle, it wouldn't be that much.
Madangae is an object that has protection against anti-target sniper rifles of a whopping 16mm or more, as well as protection against landmines.
If it is completed, the heads of any country may be greedy.
In a nutshell, it's just a promotional effect.
"Hmm······."
After that, I got into the elevator and thought for a while.
In a way, this is a case that utilizes the advantages of Polar Bear.
I thought that it would be possible to apply it to other fields rather than simply limiting it to the field of bulletproof vehicles with a small number.
For example, if Polar Bear's powerful engine was applied to a truck, wouldn't it be possible to create a truck that could perform powerfully even in bad weather?
‘I think we should hurry up the group reorganization.’
That part was the first thing that came to mind when the thought went crazy.
It is unreasonable to expand the business of Jaewoo Commercial Vehicles in a situation where a responsible management system is not established as it is now.
However, they were planning a major personnel change soon anyway.
Thinking that it might have been a good thing, I hinted at Vice President Kim.
“There will be a personnel change soon.”
“Oh, yes… Yes?”(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)
Vice President Kim, who had nodded involuntarily, looked at me with a belated swish.
Just in time, the elevator door opened, and I quickly stepped inside and spoke again.
“No surprise. After all, this is something we have been considering before.”
“·················ogue.”
“As the vice president knows, there are currently over 20 affiliates of the group. So far, the CEO has been appointed without hesitation, but now we have to reorganize mainly with professional managers. By the way, I plan to appoint a vice president as the representative of Thales, so prepare accordingly.”
“·················ogue.”
Vice President Kim Young-gi did not speak at all and just nodded.
Well, if it's Thales' representative position, it's not unreasonable as it's actually the 4th position in the group.
But I don't think there's anyone suitable for the position except for him.
“And my uncle in the position of vice-president, which had been vacant for a while. No, I am planning to appoint Yoon Sang-min, the CEO of KAI, what do you think?”
“CEO Yoon Sang-min is so trustworthy within the group that there will be no board members to oppose it. The only thing I'm worried about is..."
Vice President Kim Young-gi, who was willing to answer, was blurry.
What you're worried about is already predictable.
Ding!
As soon as the elevator door that had just arrived on the first floor opened again, I said to him.
“Your brother will also be given the title of vice president, so you don’t have to worry about that.”
“Are you appointing two vice-presidents?”
“What can’t be done? Moreover, as the field of military affairs and the field of private business are sharply separated, a dual system is even more necessary.”
“I think so too.”
Vice President Kim then nodded his head.
After that, he remained silent throughout the transfer to the vehicle, and it was not until he reached his destination that he spoke again.
“I am worried about KAI. By the way, since CEO Yoon Sang-min is the leader, he has been leading without any problems.”
Actually, I was worried about that too.
However, it is impossible to keep CEO Yoon Sang-min, who is now old, in that difficult position forever.
At that time, Vice President Kim Young-gi made a tempting suggestion.
“How about appointing Ahn Si-hyeon, director of the National Intelligence Service, as the representative of KAI?”
“The Director of the National Intelligence Service?”
“Yes, according to the rumors, there is going to be a major personnel change at the National Intelligence Service this time. So, Si-hyeon Ahn, the director, said he would step down soon.”
“·················ogue.”
