Can You Make A Nuclear Weapons Too?

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-06

A few days later, Chairman Jin and I moved together towards the USFK base.

As the commander of the USFK, General Hummer, was close to Chairman Jin, the appointment was made easily.

“Oh my God… what the hell is this…”

Chairman Jin still looked impatient, as if he was still not sure.

Maybe it's an attitude that doesn't look like a character who's faced the military all his life.

As it was his first attempt, that level of tension may be natural.

“Are you anxious?”

“Then do you really think exports to the US Army will be possible?”

“There's no reason it's impossible. The United States obviously has an acquisition program to purchase weapons from its allies. In other words, FCT exists. Besides, the United States is in desperate need of the armor-piercing ammunition we developed.”

“Why is that necessary for the US military?”

“You’ll find out when you see it.”

“But you are well aware that the U.S. Department of Defense has no history of purchasing South Korean weapons, right?”

“That's because there's never been anything that meets their standards. However, the AP shell developed this time is different.”

In the end, Chairman Jin bit his lips, not being sure.

The difference in experience will come from this.

For me, who has already experienced a lot of arms export to the United States, it was kind of funny to see him so nervous.

"Sigh······."

The sound of sighs was heard again.

Just as I was wondering if I was still not able to let go of the tension, out of the blue he spat out words that were concerned about the delay in the reinforcement of our army's strength.

“I haven’t been doing business only proudly, but the Joint Chiefs of Staff are pretty good too. If it is mass-produced, we have something that can raise the armored power for 20 years at once...”

“Now I see that your father was a patriot.”

"What does that mean?"

“I’m saying this because I feel more sorry for the fact that our military does not have enough armor-piercing ammunition, rather than being delighted with the situation in which the company will be rehabilitated.”

Chairman Jin looked even darker on his face.

As if he had no intention of denying it, a lot of force entered his chin.

“It’s not because I’m a patriot, it’s like the fate of those born on this earth. You don't understand it yet, but when I'm my age, sometimes those irrational ideas come into my mind."

I don't understand it, but I know it better than anyone.

After all, I am also a victim of that irrational notion.

Who would have thought that I, who had never even thought of patriotism, would risk my life to protect one data chip at the most?

“I know what you mean, but you don’t have to worry so much. If the export is successful, the army will soon restore the order to its original state.”

“What is the army for?”

“It will come naturally when the time is right. But in order to make that possible, you must give me full authority over this matter, can you?”

His eyes fluttered for a moment.

Rather than having a negative meaning, it seems that he is curious about what I will do.

His answer, which was spit out soon after, was still positive.

“It was your intention to come all the way here, so do it yourself. But let me ask you one thing.”

“·················ogue.”

“Since when have you been thinking about FCT?”

It seemed to be puzzled the whole time.

After all, it must have been quite a refreshing shock for his immature son to have created such a situation.

But this is just the beginning.

Right now I'm just sticking out the skirt.

“Of course it was from the beginning. The time has come to let go of the idea that only we will use the things we make. Doesn't my father know better that the defense industry is also a business that pursues profits.”

“·················ogue.”

***

[Long time no see, Chairman Jin.]

[That's how it is. This is the first time since we met at the last founding event.]

The first impression of Captain Hummer was a little unique.

A headless head and bulging eyes.

At first glance, it feels like he's more suited to a movie star than a soldier.

Hang on, look at that face.

There was definitely someone who looked like him.

Who was it?

Jason Statham?

Bruce Wellis?

[Is that friend the president's second son?]

Hummer made eye contact and gestured his chin to me.

Eyes that are not friendly.

It is a feeling of being wary of unnecessary requests that may have been made.

[Nice to meet you. This is Jin Hyun-seung, the development team leader of Jauthales.]

[Nice to meet you. But what are you asking me to do?]

The atmosphere was chilly.

At first glance, it seems that Chairman Jin's expression is not very bright, so it seems like an opportunity he made forcibly.

[This is a suggestion, not a request. To be more specific, I'm giving you a chance.]

[··········.]

Hummer's eyes contorted for an instant.

However, in the end, the emotional fluctuations are not seen.

Although annoying, it is proof that the purpose is curious.

[It's a chance... Let's hear it somewhere.]

[For now, let's review this. I'm pretty sure the Pentagon will definitely be interested in it.]

Hummer, who was handed the papers, looked at it indifferently.

He must have skipped a couple of chapters.

He straightened his back, who had been leaning at an angle, and glanced at me.

[FCT? Are you going to apply for the U.S. Department of Defense's unplanned acquisition program?]

[That's right. This time, the APFSDS (Wing Stabilized Separable Armored Ammunition) we developed is quite usable.]

[Hey. Don't you know that we already have some of the world's best AP rounds?]

It was an understandable reaction.

Because it is absurd to buy an outrageously expensive polymerized armor-piercing ammunition for the US military who are using cheap and high-performance depleted uranium ammunition.

It will only hurt your mouth if you say it, and it would be more effective to show it with your own eyes a hundred times.

[Look at this video.]

The 5-minute video I prepared contains all the testing process so far.

Eyes that grow slowly.

In the process of watching the last test, he was also in vain! He let out a scream and got up from his seat.

[Is that a tungsten bullet?]

[of course. As you can see, the penetration has increased by about 20 percent compared to the depleted uranium bomb currently used by the US Army.]

[If it exceeds the penetration power of depleted uranium bombs by 20%, it means that all existing armor is useless... How is that possible? That's just a tungsten bullet.]

[To say that is the same as asking to know the source of the technology.]

Hummer smiled awkwardly at those words.

It was still hard to believe, but after looking back at the screen several times, he looked at me again.

[But why did you plan to deliver that to the US Army?]

[Yeah, because America is the place that needs that stuff the most.]

For a moment, cold eyes flew in.

His eyes questioned as if he knew what the hell he was doing this kind of trick.

The coffee flavor, which used to be crunchy, suddenly becomes unusually sweet.

[The United States is currently suffering from the problem of radioactive leaks from depleted uranium bombs.]

[··········.]

[In such a field, I thought that if a tungsten bullet, which has better performance than uranium bullets and is easy to store and use, was developed, they would be interested.]

[··········.]

[And I know that they recently tried to develop an armor-piercing round to replace it, wasn't it?]

Hummer was particularly shocked by his last words.

After repeating the action of clenching and opening his fist, he showed a disappointed smile after a while.

[This is embarrassing, so I don't know what to say. How the hell do you know that the US Army is developing a new AP shell?]

[It is natural for the defense industry to have that kind of information-gathering ability.]

[But by what means? I was in a situation where the developer was careful about the import of materials just in case.]

[Yeah, it's useless. It is impossible to hide the movement of special metal materials that have no use other than weapons in the international market.]

[Heh...]

A look of exasperation was made.

But his attitude became mild again, as if he did not feel that the answer was lacking.

[I admit, as you said, we tried to develop a new AP shell. But in the end, I gave up because I couldn't meet the unit price.]

[I know. That is why it is said that it is an opportunity for the United States even more. We can deliver it at the same price as uranium bombs.]

[What! Did you lower the price of tungsten bullets to the level of depleted uranium bullets? How?]

[Unlike the United States, we have succeeded in minimizing the proportion of expensive tungsten and allowing other polymers to take over. Thanks to this, the unit price has come down significantly.]

Hummer looked at me with his chin dropped.

Chairman Jin, who watched the scene together, gently shook my head and gave a refreshing expression.

[So, what is the purpose of coming to me? Honestly, in this situation, there would be no problem in passing the FCT, right?]

[It will be if the documents are properly received. But I do not trust the working-level officials of the U.S. Department of Defense's Armed Acquisition Planning Office

[You are concerned about the lobby of the US defense company.]

[That's right. There is a high possibility that documents will be omitted by those who received lobbying funds.]

That's not a guess, it's from my long experience.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

Hummer's head nodded as soon as he understood what he meant.

[So that means you need my letter of recommendation in the end. So that the documents reach the decision maker in the army directly.]

[This is correct.]

[I understand. But there is one thing I need to make sure of.]

[what is that?]

[Isn't that a business invested by the government?]

Asking whether the government will invest means that they are worried about export approval.

That means you've made up your mind soon.

I could feel the slightest bit of anxiety that I had been wanting to go away.

[It is not classified as a strategic item anyway, so the export potential is sufficient. Moreover, if the US imports it, the procedure will be quite simple.]

jump!

As soon as the horse fell, Hummer stood up.

As he was about to close his eyes to see what was going on, he suddenly went to his desk and pulled out a piece of paper with his seal on it.

[I must apologize. You're not wrong when you say he gives us a chance.]

[··········.]

[In that sense, I will give you this, so please attach it to the very beginning of the document. Then the documents won't fall asleep in the drawers of the executives running through the lobby. Even if not, do you think you will receive a reply from the army in about a week?]

It wouldn't have been any kind of confidence.

One of the 10 most powerful Americans is the commander of the USFK.

Perhaps an FCT application with his comments attached will reach the top decision maker right away.

[Thank you, Commander Hummer. I'll arrange a meal for you soon.]

Chairman Jin rose from his seat belatedly.

The expression of excitement as if exports had already become a reality.

Hummer took the hand with a faint smile and said, chinking me out of nowhere.

[Now that the meal is done, please send your son one more time.]

[Why, is there any problem?]

[What could be the problem? It's just that I think I'd like to share a little bit of insight because I think it's great. By the way, I don't understand why you were so worried about a friend like that.]

[Ah, that is...]

Chairman Jin secretly looked into my eyes.

When I twisted my lips, this time I looked into the air for nothing.
