For this project, Zhuang Jianye has no room for bargaining at all.

After all, when national interests are seriously threatened, how to prevent the intervention of foreign countries is the most important issue today.

Regardless of the trap of rushing headlong into the arms race, all kinds of crazy ways to build aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines are a very rigid and bloody way to deal with it.

However, the problem is that if this is done, the former Soviet Union, which has been shattered into scum, will be so vividly laid out in front of us, and if it really wants to frantically expand its armaments in disregard of national conditions, it is very likely to repeat the old path of the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

What's more, the current country does not have the strength of the Soviet Union at the beginning, where can it afford to play an arms race.

Through reform and opening up, it is not easy for the common people to live a good life, but is it possible that they will have to return to their original form and continue to tighten their belts? If this is the case, the common people will not agree.

However, that major incident has proved that if we do not prevent the intervention of foreign countries, once the national interests are threatened, there are really not many domestic solutions, either gritting our teeth and fighting for decades of development and hardening the wave, or preserving our strength and continuing to compromise.

Two ways, two extremes, there is simply no more flexible option.

Funds are not abundant, the overall national strength is still weak, and the more important thing is that the current excellent development situation cannot be interrupted, after all, the prosperity of the country and the strength of the people is the foundation of a strong and prosperous country, and just engaging in armaments is called reckless military force, and the ancestors knew this truth more than 2,000 years ago, and modern people are extremely clear.

In such a situation, what should we do if we have to deal with a real threat that we feel deeply?

Fortunately, at this historical moment in 1991, the Soviet Union created the most famous geopolitical event of the 20th century, which was shattered into a piece of dregs, and a large number of Soviet military industry experts who had high hopes from the Soviet Union lost their jobs and began to go their separate ways.

Some of them came to China, followed by many unique weapons and equipment development ideas and technical approaches of the former Soviet Union, and among these complex ideas and ways is a submarine-launched ballistic missile called R-27K, which is the prototype of mankind's first anti-ship ballistic missile.

At that time, a senior engineer who used to work for the former Soviet Union's submarine-launched ballistic missile development and production organization, the Makeev Design Bureau, Drenziko brought some information about the R-27K missile to China in the early nineties.

It's just that the information that Delentsko took at that time did not attract the attention of relevant domestic institutions, and the reason is very simple: the R-27 missile is not an advanced thing, as the first generation of practical submarine-launched ballistic missiles in the former Soviet Union, technically speaking, it is not as advanced as similar domestic products.

Second, at that time, the brain drain of the Makeev Design Bureau was so serious that things about the R-27 missile were scattered all over the world, and if nothing else, North Korea accepted a group of experts who had left the Makeev Design Bureau and obtained information about the R-27 missile, thus making significant progress in long-range rockets and missiles.

It can be said that the entire R-27 missile data has almost become a piece of tatters on the street, and no one in the major countries can afford it.

Of course, the most important thing is that the R-27K anti-ship ballistic missile, developed on the basis of the R-27 missile, was not equipped in the Soviet army sequence, but was canceled in its entirety in 1973 and was discontinued.

After all, as one of the world's two great powers at that time, a real superpower, it took more than ten years of hard work to finally not equip it, but chose to dismount, which in itself is very revealing.

Based on the above points, although Drenziko was holding the R-27K anti-ship ballistic missile data at that time, and talking about it was a foolish thing, the relevant domestic departments felt that this was just a trick by Drenziko to gain a foothold in China.

Due to Delenziko's own extremely high technical background, the relevant domestic departments still arranged a job for him, but it was not of much use, and he only served as an academic consultant in a research institute.

It was not until after that major incident, when the affected headquarters and various research departments faced a dilemma, that they suddenly discovered that the technical route provided by Drenziko still had a certain value.

Immediately after inviting Drenziko over and having a more in-depth understanding, the General Headquarters made up its mind to take anti-ship ballistic missiles as the core of the "killer weapon" plan and focus on its development.

The reason for this is simple: the anti-access combat system used to implement strategic deterrence is in line with the strategic expectations of the headquarters and can control the budget within the limits of the national budget.

After all, the planning budget of the headquarters is only 18 billion yuan, and the maximum is not more than 26 billion, if this number is used to build aircraft carriers, it is estimated that even a fully manned aircraft carrier battle group can not be gathered, compared with it, if the same money can be used to make the fleet of a foreign power stop at 2,000 kilometers away, it is definitely a super cost-effective deal!

Of course, there is still a long way to go on the headquarters side of the company to make this deal happen.

After all, an anti-ship ballistic missile is not a single weapon, but a complete set of combat systems around the missile, including reconnaissance, locking, guidance, attack, damage assessment, and so on.

In other words, a simple anti-ship ballistic missile is only a node in the entire system, and if you want to complete the entire combat process, you must have other supporting equipment to support it, otherwise the anti-ship ballistic missile is like a bullet losing a gun, and it is no different from a pile of scrap metal.

It is precisely for this reason that while developing the R-27K anti-ship ballistic missile, the former Soviet Union also deployed the "Haiyang" series of marine reconnaissance and surveillance satellites in space to track and monitor large surface warships.

At high altitudes, the "Mystery-U" and Tu-95RT reconnaissance planes were used to patrol key areas, so as to realize the target indication and guidance structure in the theater.

At the same time, surface ships and underwater submarines will use carrier-based helicopters, radar, sonar and other means to constantly determine the enemy's position, and use data links to transmit it to the R-27K anti-ship ballistic missile seeker in real time, so as to ensure accurate hitting the target.

It is no exaggeration to say that an R-27K anti-ship ballistic missile attack can only be achieved by mobilizing most of the elite of the Soviet Red Navy.

And these combat systems built by the Soviet Union in the 70s are like blank paper in China, completely zero.

Not to mention the dedicated marine surveillance satellites, even the regular maritime patrol aircraft are pitifully few in China.

Therefore, in order to realize the operational concept of anti-ship ballistic missiles, China must build a combat system of its own from scratch.

From space to underwater, from rocket engines to hypersonic warheads, the scope of involvement is unprecedented, and the difficulty is unprecedented.
