Unparalleled True Technology

Umbrella's first Guardians were not delivered directly to the Pentagon.

Instead, it was sold by the Pentagon.

America's No. 1 and the world's No. 1 arms giant, Lockheed Martin, got three Guardians. The most well-known products of this company are f-22 and f-35. In addition to these two most advanced fighter jets in the world, there are also military products such as trident ballistic missiles.

The Boeing Company got two of them. The most famous product of this company is naturally the Boeing airliner, but apart from the airliner, they are also a very powerful arms company.

McDonnell-Douglas, which produced f-15 fighter jets, was acquired by Boeing, and it also owns the c-17, a strategic military transport aircraft.

Raytheon got 2 units. The company's most technologically advanced product is radar. The fighter equipped with the an/arg-70 radar produced by their company can be said to be one of the most advanced fighters in the world.

And the Patriot missile they produced became famous in World War I by successfully intercepting the Scud missile in the Iraq War.

General Motors got one guardian, and Northrop Grumman got two. It is worth mentioning that Northrop Grumman specializes in the production of aircraft carriers, which are still Nimitz-class aircraft carriers. In addition to aircraft carriers, this company also has a very well-known product, that is, the b-2 bomber and the Apache helicopter.

The 10 guards were allocated in this way, which neither Wen Ming nor Teresa Roy had thought of before.

In other words, they thought of this, but they didn't expect those companies to be able to distribute the 10 guardians.

It is self-evident that an arms company obtains the products of another arms company. Although different arms companies specialize in different product directions, weapons below certain levels have a lot in common.

It is not too much technical difficulty to imitate. Just like the Apache gunship, it is not only Northrop Grumman that has the technology to produce it.

Each of the above five arms companies has a professional department for the production and research of radar and other electronic control system equipment.

As the world's first successful laser defense and interception device, Guardian is naturally the first choice for these companies to refer to.

A Raytheon factory.

"How long has Apple been around?"

The person in charge of Raytheon Electronic Control Technology R\u0026D Department,

Looking at the two guardians they paid a lot of money to get from the Pentagon, he said calmly: "And how long did it take for our company to develop the laser defense interception device?"

In the 1990s, the U.S. government began to invest a lot of money in the research of laser weapons. With an investment of nearly 10 billion US dollars, the laser weapons produced can only be regarded as laboratory products, whether they are offensive or defensive, and none of them can be truly used in actual combat.

Almost all the weapons of the U.S. military are supplied by major U.S. arms dealers, which is the norm in capitalist countries. When the U.S. government has invested so much money in research, how could the major U.S. arms companies not conduct research?

As one of the global leaders in military electronic control systems, Raytheon is researching laser weapons, which is the laser anti-missile system.

"We have spent nearly ten years researching the laser anti-missile system. However, just when we were about to make a breakthrough, a company that was established less than two years ago has already launched a finished product."

The person in charge's expression is still calm, but his voice has increased a lot.

"Even, the company that launched this product is just a small company acquired by the boss of Apple for fun. It has only been a few months since they changed their name to Umbrella Company."

"So, I hope you can tell me, are you too incompetent, or their scientific research technology is too powerful? Or, is our technology leaked?"

The last question made all the researchers present tremble with fear. As an arms company, Raytheon has cooperated with many countries around the world, and in addition to countries, some illegal armed organizations are also their customers.

Everyone present knew the consequences of betraying Raytheon. Otherwise, with the technology Raytheon possessed, wouldn't these technicians be poached by many companies or even countries?

Wen Ming wants to find someone trustworthy to participate in his research, just because his development speed is too fast and his foundation is too shallow. Veteran defense contractors like Raytheon have already gone through blood lessons to let employees who join this company know what to do and what not to do.

"The answer to the question I asked, I will verify it myself, and the company will also send professionals to verify it."

The person in charge's expression remained unchanged, but his voice became very cold.

"What I hope is that you can tell me within a week that we can manufacture the guardian laser defense device in batches. If you can tell me in a week, the guardian we have produced is better than the one in front of you." The guardian is even better, and each of you will be rewarded."

"The last thing I want to remind is that after a week, I don't want to see that among the people present, someone left us forever."

When Raytheon Company began to crack the guardian technology and wanted to imitate the guardian, or even create a better guardian, several other arms companies that got the guardian also started the same research plan.

Among them, Lockheed Martin, which accounts for 40% of the world's defense market and one-third of the Pentagon's annual procurement budget, limits the time for cracking the guard to within three days.

The reason why they are so confident is not only because they have obtained three guardians, but also because they are powerful in computer technology.

The technical difficulty of cracking the guardian lies in the computing system and the architecture of the processor chip. The amount of software codes written by Lockheed Martin every year even exceeds that of Microsoft, which monopolizes the computer system market.

For this reason, the two have established a strategic partnership and cooperated on some US government defense projects. Among them, there are even software systems for the new generation of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers in the United States, as well as the information security system of the US Department of Defense and so on.

Therefore, Microsoft is actually not only selling computer systems, they can also be regarded as a defense contractor of the United States.

But what Lockheed-Martin's technicians didn't expect was that they had no way of cracking the guarded system code. After asking for instructions, they applied for help from Microsoft's technical staff.

It was precisely because of Microsoft's joining that Wen Ming had already guessed this, but he never expected the news to come so soon.

"Actually, even if I don't tell you this news, I think you will know it after a while."

Bill Gates specially brought his family to Jurassic Island for this purpose.

On the surface, Bill Gates took a vacation to accompany his family to see a living dinosaur. But in fact, it was to take advantage of this opportunity to show favor to Wen Ming, the boss of the umbrella company.

"As far as I know, in addition to Raytheon, there are several other arms companies that have also obtained your protection and are conducting technical cracking. What do you think of this?"
