The president's words flew in again as he was groaning inwardly.

The moment he looked at him subconsciously, he continued with a meaningful smile.

“The mass production of KFX. Originally, about 140 cars were planned, right?”

“For Batch 1, yes. After that, 60 units are scheduled for Batch 2, which will be upgraded to the 5th generation.”

"right. However, as a result of yesterday's meeting with the Ministry of National Defense, there was an opinion that it would be better to expand the total volume of batch 1 to 220 units.”

“Why all of a sudden...”

“That’s Chairman Jin’s fault.”

I tilted my head at the sudden return of the arrow.

“Isn’t Chairman Jin the one who raised the issue of our air force’s power shortage that was buried there? In the end, it turned into a fire and the overall power rebalancing began, so it’s Chairman Jin’s fault.”

The president, who spoke out with a light smile, handed me a file folder.

The documents we looked at listed the air force we need in the future.

The most eye-catching among them was the plan to replace the F5 through a T-50-based light attack aircraft, and what was discovered afterwards was the decommissioning of some F4 aircraft and countermeasures for the resulting power gap.

“They say they want to meet the F4’s mission by producing additional KFX.”

"That's right. The F4Es that are still available will be used as shuttles, but the rest will be retired. And the KFX Batch 1 version of the aircraft that additionally introduces that role and the KF-16 will take over.”

In the case of KFX, the possibility was sufficient.

A KFX comparable to the F-15 in terms of range and weapon payload is sufficient to cope with the ground bombing mission of the F4.

The real problem is the KF-16. Although it is an aircraft capable of air-to-ground missions by nature, the operation of JDAM is impossible due to the mission computer capacity problem.

But what about actively using it for air-to-ground missions?

“Are you saying that you want to proceed with the KF-16 mission computer replacement project?”

"That's right. Even if it is not an improved version of the US military right now, I plan to make it possible to operate the JDAM or the KGGB to be developed in Jaewoo soon.”

Even so, it was clear that it would cost quite a bit of money.

It looks like he's making a move and running away.

As I swallowed dry saliva, the president's words flew in again.

“By the way, I know that KFX has increased the hard point by pursuing multi-role, but in that case, can’t it be able to perform air-to-ground missions as much as the F-4 while performing dogfights?”

It seemed that the question came out of the intention of confirming the facts once again.

She nodded her head resolutely and supplemented her explanation.

"Yes. No other multi-role fighter is as perfect as the KFX. Thanks to this, it is possible to dig into the enemy base and bombard it independently without an escort. This is a digression, if only for a complete air-to-ground mission, a separate escort was attached. And if another KFX takes over, it will be the best combination. If you start a BVR engagement with 22 air-to-air missiles alone, there will be no enemy aircraft left.”

The president gasped for breath at those words.

It was as if he was imagining a battle scene.

After that, he spit out another startling remark.

"Oh yeah! I didn't say this before, but please note that although the KF-16 is only performing partial renovations at the moment, there is a high possibility that it will be completely upgraded to the level of the improved type that the U.S. military is currently carrying out under the next administration.”

“What is that… you’re going to completely renovate the KF-16, which is not long in age?”

“I'm not talking about the late block 52, I'm talking about the block 32 and early versions of the 52. Well, it's true that the 52's initial model is young, but he's also armed with radar. And it is true that we need to raise our operational capabilities.”

There will probably be about 120 aircraft that correspond to it.

No, if you add up to type 32, it's more than that.

In an instant, the first thing that came to mind was the budget.

No matter how much the next administration plans to carry out, will such a budget really support it?

Due to the increased quantity, the introduction of KFX alone would cost trillions of won a year, so would we have more budget for air force increase?

“But the budget allocated to the Air Force…”

“The Air Force budget is not going to be a big problem. For the increase in KFX, the remaining budget of the mid-term defense plan will be invested. Nevertheless, the shortcomings and the total repair cost of the KF-16 will be addressed by increasing the proportion of defense spending to the budget by 6% every year during my term of office. In that case, the next government in which the project is implemented can afford it. No, if it increases by 6% every year, wouldn’t it be possible to plan for naval power reinforcement aside from the number of KF-16s?”

It wasn't wrong.

Currently, the total budget of Korea is roughly the level of 2010 before the regression.

As a result, the proportion of defense spending has also risen to over 30 trillion won.

However, if it increases by 6% from 30 trillion won every year, it is almost a trillion unit increase, so it is possible.

Moreover, if you add the increase that naturally increases due to the annual budget increase, it will increase by at least 3 trillion won a year.

So, isn't that a possibility?

'Just because you're running an improvement project doesn't mean you're going to have to spend a lot of money right away. For example, if a budget of KRW 3 trillion is set for the renovation project. If the project proceeds over 5 years, it is possible with a budget of 600 billion won a year, then, as the president said, the number of KF-16s is sufficient.’

eating.

The president laughed at my constantly changing expression.

He suddenly came to his senses and brought up a question that had crossed his mind again.

“Anyway, if the quantity of KFX Batch 1 increases, is there any possibility that the introduction quantity of Batch 2 will also increase from the scheduled 60 units?”

“KF-16 repair, I have to do it even if I hate it because I am in a situation where I am working, but the expansion of the KFX batch 2 introduction is entirely up to the next administration. That said, I can't say for sure. But nothing to worry too much about. As much as it is a plane to secure air supremacy, even if the government changes, the Air Force will risk its life and death to attack.”

Even so, I can't be sure.

Historically, governments are supposed to change, and no one can predict what will happen after that.

Then, the president spoke again with a meaningful expression.

“You don’t have to worry too much. I don't know if the KFX went bankrupt, like that, a perfect aircraft was born, wouldn't you be greedy for batch 2?"

“That depends on which direction the next president’s mind is inclined. Also, budget is an issue.”

The president smiled at that.

Well, there's no need to worry about problems that haven't happened yet.

I got rid of my thoughts and decided to tell the president one thing that I had to tell the president.

“I have something to tell you.”

Afterwards, for a while, I informed him of the fact that I had not been able to tell him for a while to keep it strictly confidential.

KFX and medium-range air-to-air missiles developed by us. And about another hidden function of the surface-to-air missile that is currently under development.

The president, who at first listened with an insignificant expression, suddenly widened his eyes and looked at me.

“Hey, is that true?”

“Yes, please understand that this report is for security reasons now.”

“I understand that, but… my God!”

The president showed an expression of disbelief.

Well, with that kind of news, Nara would have made that kind of expression.

On the day of the armament test, the faces of the main air force commanders who will learn the truth together will not be too different from that.

Tiling!

At that time, I heard a notification sound from my cell phone, which I had forgotten to set to vibrate.

The president, who glanced at him, is making an expression as if he wants to receive it.

The text that I asked for forgiveness and confirmed was from Jin Hyun-cheol.

"uh?"

“Why, do you have any bad news?”

“No, it’s the other way around.”

I responded, trying to control my mouth that opened with excitement.

How can it be compared to deliver this news so that the president can feel it?

After thinking for a while, what immediately came to mind was a 3,000-ton submarine, which is currently under construction.

“The 3,000-ton class submarines of our military may be comparable to the performance of nuclear-powered submarines, President.”

“What do you mean all of a sudden?”

“It is said that Jaewoo Energy has just succeeded in developing an all-solid-state battery. It is also possible to maintain the ionic conductivity at room temperature as it is. It has been completed, and if it is applied as scheduled, the operational capability of our submarines will increase by at least 9 times. So, it's not unreasonable to compare it to a nuclear submarine."

“·················ogue.”

*****

[Jaewoo Energy succeeded in developing a battery with excellent stability.]

[So-called all-solid-state batteries are expected to have endless uses due to their greatly increased stability and efficiency, and some are cautiously predicting that Jaewoo Energy will be able to dominate the battery market in the future.]

The news of Jaewoo Energy's success in developing an all-solid-state battery has spread all over the world.

It is a product that has stabilized ionic conductivity at room temperature, so it can cope with the need for almost all lithium batteries, including mobile phones and laptops.

especially in terms of stability and longevity. And the shocking reduction in the charging speed is a situation that is really turning the industry upside down, so the reaction was inevitably hot. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

-Are you fucked in Japan?

?It's no wonder that the battery market will turn upside down at once.

- Are all-solid-state batteries that great?

?It's not a big deal, it's a revolution in the industry. To be honest, it's strange that I didn't win the Nobel Prize.

?It's a Nobel Prize.

-I don't know how the production price will be set, but I want to start the battery monopoly for the next few decades.

By the way, what kind of kids are they in Japan? Perhaps sooner or later, an article will come out that Japan has also succeeded in developing it.

Are you the youngest? Japan is just messing around with sulfur compounds, so how do they make all-solid-state batteries in years?

Seeing the recent comments was pretty cool.

It's like revisiting a new Internet term that you've forgotten.

As he smirks like a madman, Secretary Kim blinks his eyes and looks at me.

“Did you know you’ve been a little weird lately?”

“What do you mean?”

“It’s the habit of smiling while looking at the monitor for nothing.”

At those words, he coughed and looked sullen.

But it's too late to turn around.

Secretary Kim, who was struggling to manage his facial expressions, suddenly shoved a document in front of me.

"What is this?"

“This is a draft letter from Vice Chairman Jin Hyeon-cheol. He said that a large-scale plant expansion would be necessary considering the expected demand for all-solid-state batteries in the future. This is a proposal for some of those candidates.”

I immediately reviewed the candidates listed on the paperwork.

For the sake of security, most of the candidate sites have been searched for in Korea.

Obviously, Jin Hyeon-cheol is quick to think in this regard.

“Please tell Vice-President Jin Hyun-cheol that this part will be left up to you.”

Secretary Kim, who received the documents back, immediately nodded his head.

In the meantime, foreign media reactions posted on search engines are so hot that they are like a furnace.

It is not unreasonable to the extent that innovations have been created throughout the industry.

“Are Vice Chairman Jin Hyun-cheol’s phone on fire by now?”

Secretary Kim, who was watching the knights by his side, hinted.

sufficiently predictable results.

Out of curiosity, I called, too, but it was not easy to connect as she predicted.

“Shall I call the vice-president’s secretary’s office?”

“No, I was just checking it out. By the way, it seems that there are quite a few companies that want to target the final manager rather than the working people. If that's the case, it might be me too..."

As soon as I finished speaking, my cell phone rang.

The number that appeared on the screen was Samjeong Chairman Lee Young-hoon.

He let out a smirk and pressed the call button.

“Anyway, I was waiting for the call to come.”

The purpose of Chairman Lee's call was, of course, to prioritize the supply of all-solid-state batteries.

Even if they had been preparing in advance, it would take another year for mass production to begin in earnest.

However, from the point of view of the manager of the electronics sector, it is natural to expect that demand will explode, and Chairman Lee now shows his will to stay one step ahead of others by mobilizing his personal connections.

“Anyway, let’s set up a seat soon.”

Terry.

“It has begun.”

As soon as the call end button was pressed, the bell rang again.

As is the case, I have received about 10 calls.

In the end, I came to the conclusion that I might not be able to even do my job, so I turned off the power, and the clock I looked at after that was already pointing to 2:00 PM.

“It will be late. I think I will have to go to the Iman supersonic anti-ship missile test site.”

He quickly picked up his suit and stood up from his seat.

Secretary Kim, who quickly catches up at the moment, catches up with him at once.

“Why, do you plan to follow the scene?”

“Yes, I am the chief of staff, but I am also the assistant secretary. However, I feel like I have been aiding the president too much as an assistant secretary.”

I stared at him, wondering if he had any intentions.

As she rummaged through her pockets for a moment, she immediately grabbed one of her gas guns and waved it in her hand.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

“Don't worry. In the worst moment, I will protect the president.”

“·················ogue.”

There was not even a laugh out of an absurd heart.

How can I stop that when I want to be faithful to my role as an attendant?

To be honest, there were not one or two things that made me uncomfortable because of her absence.

She eventually nodded her head and was about to leave her room, where she suddenly ran into Natasha, who was waiting outside her.

“Where are you?”

Natasha has been fluent in Korean recently.

If there is a downside, it's that her tone of voice is still sparse.

Fortunately, the effort is imaginary, and he is responding to each other every once in a while, but there are not once or twice when he is frustrated.

“Today is a place where Natasha cannot go.”

Understanding her meaning, she quickly nodded her head.

As soon as she passed her car, she suddenly followed me, grabbed her secretary Kim and spoke to her.

“Where are you?”

“·················ogue.”

For a moment, Secretary Kim made a confused expression.

I am also like that

Natasha hurriedly patted her hand to correct her spit, as she later realized it was a mistake.

“Mi, I’m sorry. Where is Secretary Kim's sister?”

“Secretary Kim will accompany me today.”

I screamed and climbed into the elevator.

Perhaps it was a mistake, Natasha's face, which had been brushed for a moment, felt as if her face was slightly wrinkled.

Doo doo doo!

The helicopter carrying us went straight to the military shooting range near Namhae.

The scheduled field test of the supersonic air-to-ship missile is scheduled to take place there, and the tension is already rising because it was such a serious test.

“Are you unwell?”

Secretary Kim asked me, who had a hardened expression on my face.

When I actually heard those words, the motion sickness started.

As time passed, the severity got worse.

“Are you really okay?”

It was too late to even respond.

This isn't a cursed body, I wonder if it's like this every time I get on a helicopter.

I try to respond by simply nodding my head, but suddenly the aircraft rattles and shakes violently.

“Sorry, it was a bit windy and the aircraft was not in good shape for a while.”

The captain's words were heard through the headset.

I want to say it's okay, but I feel like if I open my mouth, it will pour out right away.

I still nod my head and look out the window...

“Bong, envelope!”

Wow!

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-137
