Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

[Korea's first self-developed 4.5th generation fighter finally flew in the sky.]

The next day, most of the news focused on the prototype's maneuver test.

This is an era in which all kinds of information come and go online, not just on TV.

Thanks to this, the public's reaction was being delivered more clearly than before through comments.

-F22 Are you out of touch?

?No, the tail is more cosmic than the F22. I don't know about performance, but in terms of design, you think ours is better?

-Is the design of the fighter important? Performance doesn't matter. By the way, someone who can explain what the 4.5 generation is.

?Doesn't it mean the stage just before going to stealth?

?So, does the one we developed evolve like the F22? There was talk of going like that in batch 2?

• According to the development plan, yes. However, there are also rumors that the F22 will be thrown away when the fighter we developed becomes the 5th generation...

Are you crazy? The F22 is the result of torturing an astronaut.

When I saw the comments, I felt something new.

Do you feel like you've just found your lost artifacts?

In the midst of being so frantic about commenting for a while, Secretary Kim knocked on the door.

“Chairman, I got a call from Jack Kerson, CEO of Nokid Martin.”

The call with Jack was the first thing I had requested.

Yesterday, I received a promise from the president to agree to hasten the development of a low-class fighter if changes to the contract with Nokid are possible.

Then there is no need to procrastinate.

-It's been a while, Chairman Jin. I'm sorry for the late reply as the meeting is over.

[no. Rather, I am only sorry for calling you at such a late hour.]

In Jack's voice, he could feel how busy his life was.

After all, the title of representative is not something to take for granted.

I suppressed the feeling of sympathy that I felt, and told him what I was going to do.

[Actually, I requested a call because I had something to discuss about the development of a light attack aircraft based on the T-50.]

-·········.

There was a moment of silence over the receiver.

I mean, you already know what I'm talking about.

Sure enough, his tone became a little more cautious.

- Has the problem already been addressed?

[It’s not ‘already’. Considering the current situation of our air force.]

-Actually, considering the development background of the T-50 in the first place, he is like that. If you do, we will set up a working team and send it to you soon.

Jack secretly tried to avoid the conversation.

I don't know the intention

I spoke bluntly.

[This problem seems to have to be solved by ourselves rather than the working-level staff]

-·········.

He was silent again.

Perhaps I had given up on work, for a moment I heard the sound of him asking his secretary for water over the phone, and after a while he called my name again.

- Chairman Jin. To be honest, I have a good idea of ​​what the president is trying to say.

[··········.]

- As the F-16 is already undergoing improvement, the contract standards must also change. Isn't this what you want to say?

[Yes. According to the contract, there is no problem as long as it does not meet the performance of the F-16, so there is no reason to follow the previously agreed specifications.]

- But that's...

He spat out his words and swallowed them again.

No matter how hard I try, I have nothing to say.

However, if the specifications of the FA-50 are readjusted, it may become a competitor of the F-16 in the future.

You're probably burning your stomach black by now.

[I know what you are worried about, but let me tell you a realistic story.]

I swung my luck at that point.

Jack's breathing became quite rough, as if intrigued, and I continued.

[Even if the T-50 is developed with better specifications than the existing one, it cannot encroach on the F-16 market.]

- How do you guarantee that? Frankly, in terms of price, it is not true that the light attack version of the T-50 has an advantage over the F-16.

Again, as if that was a concern, a quick response came.

He let out a laugh inwardly and spoke again.

[In terms of price, it is definitely advantageous. However, no matter how high-spec the light attack fighter version of the T-50 is, in the end, the performance cannot be equivalent to the improved version of the F-16. Even because of the limitations that come from birth itself.]

-·········.

Jack remained silent.

Even if the reality is, he can't predict the future.

In fact, it's not a bad idea at all.

Contrary to history, in the case of the FA-50- to be developed now, its specifications cannot be said to be low-level.

But, as I said earlier, the disadvantage that comes from being born is something that cannot be overcome.

For example, insufficient cruising distance.

Therefore, in the end, it would be impossible to compete on an equal footing with the F-16, and even as a Nokid, you will be well aware of that.

- Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Jack let out a long sigh.

still seem to be in conflict.

If you do, you need to put a wedge at this point.

[One thing to keep in mind is that I'm not seeking consent, I'm giving notice. According to the terms of the contract, as long as the level of the T-50-based light attack aircraft does not exceed the level of the F-16, that's it.]

-·········.

He was silent again.

Seriously, is there anything in particular that can refute the statement based on the contract?

Moreover, since Nokid and Jae-woo have a precedent for closing a conflict once, it is difficult to forcefully force it.

It is probably not unreasonable to expect a positive answer.

- It's not really wrong. Even if the T-50-based light attack aircraft were exported, it would only be a niche market, and that would not break the relationship with Jaewoo. All right, I'll put the agenda to the meeting right away tomorrow morning.

The answer was still 'yes'.

After that, we agreed to dispatch a working-level team soon after, and changed the topic to a lighter one to resolve the conflict of opinion that had been there for a while, and as a result, the call became longer than expected.

- Well, have you heard the news? The US could soon begin to impose sanctions on Iran.

It was different from the light topic that had been going on for a while, so I couldn't respond for a while.

I think I thought it was surprising.

No, I'm surprised it's true. Anyway, Jack continued with excitement, as if he was telling the world a secret that would never happen again.

- Exactly when the sanctions will start seems to be still under discussion, but it seems that the start of the sanctions has been finalized.

[Is it because of nuclear development?]

I immediately asked.

- I think so. According to what I've heard, our government has recently found solid evidence that Iran's nuclear development rate is unusual.

[What specific evidence do you mean?]

- Well, I don't know.

In an instant, all sorts of thoughts came to mind.

Have the hidden centrifuge facilities been exposed?

Or is there something else?

No, even so, isn't this too fast compared to history?

Then, Jack spoke again.

-The important point here is that the United States, which has not yet managed the Iraq war, will not retaliate militarily against Iran.

[Of course it is. If another war is waged now, the US government will have a hard time handling public opinion. If you do, you are saying that economic sanctions will be imposed, but what kind of sanctions are you specifically applying?]

Unlike before, the posture to make a phone call was restored.

Because it was not a topic that could not be easily dismissed.

I am waiting for the next words to come out with a feeling that it is not the only thing that pleases me, but immediately I hear a word that destroys my wishes.

-Perhaps a total ban on Iranian oil trade with its allies.

[··········.]

******

smart!

“Chairman, the Director of the National Intelligence Service has arrived.”

A few days later, I got a phone call from the head of the National Intelligence Service.

Again, the first thing he spoke about was the news of the US sanctions on Iran.

It wasn't something I could just say over the phone, so I asked for a meeting, and he took the time to visit me today.

“Sorry while you are busy.”

As he entered the room, his expression hardened.

It's not that I couldn't understand it, as the matter was so serious.

Even so, he suggested tea with the intention of taking some time off, but he revealed his purpose without even touching the teacup.

“Actually, this morning the State Department delivered a full ban on Iranian oil.”

“·················ogue.”

I thought it was coming.

Historically, sanctions against Iran started from that.

The only thing that has changed is that it started too quickly.

“Then you must have notified me of the oil price freeze.”

I said as if passing by and raised the teacup.

For a moment, the Director of the National Intelligence Service asks, with his eyes wide open.

“How do you do that…”

“Isn’t that natural? The U.S. is aiming to inflict an economic blow to Iran right now, and there is no reason to let the oil money flow in.”

"Ah······."

The head of the National Intelligence Service put his hand to the teacup with an awkward smile.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

It seems that I have found some peace in my heart now.

Soon after, he slurped and drank tea, and spoke again.

“So, by the way, can Chairman Jin help the government a little this time?”

“Am I?”

“As you may know, we have been importing crude oil from Iran at a fairly reasonable price. But if that is a blocked situation, wouldn't it be a situation in which the lights went out for us right now?

“So, what specifically are you asking me for help?”

“Convince Saudi Arabia and UAE. ”

“·················ogue.”

“We now have a stable supply of crude oil, but price stability is also important.”

“But isn’t that a matter for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to discuss?”

“It is natural, but Chairman Jin knows the present reality better than anyone else. With the global economic boom, it is difficult to cope with the government's power alone in securing supplies and negotiating prices. so please help Then I will definitely pay the price for that effort in the future.”

I understood what you meant.

The turning point in the oil price era began in 2005.

It stems from the global economic boom, and the price of crude oil, which has risen steadily since 2003, currently stands at $55 per barrel.

And the same trend will continue and it will break through the $100 range by 2008.

Although the government is not looking into the future, it would not have been difficult to guess the continuous rise as economic flows and oil prices are bound to be linked in the end.

To put it simply, he now intends to secure stable quantities and prices through me in advance.

"Hmm."

Actually, this problem was something I had guessed after talking to Jack.

I am the person who manages the funds invested by Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Because of that, it is true that I have an advantage in negotiations over the government.

But the problem is not that.

No matter how or how we solve the oil import problem, the question is how to resolve the conflict between Iran and Korea that will arise due to the freeze on oil prices.

The complicated problem that had been bothering me all the way right up to my return.

“Are there any countermeasures against Iran’s protests due to refusal to pay for oil in the future?”

I asked out of curiosity.

Do you still have any workarounds?

The head of the National Intelligence Service immediately shook his head, and I clicked inwardly.

'Ttt.'

Anyway, it's like Yankees who don't care.

We're always trying to change that attitude that we don't even think about...

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-133
