Chapter 607: A New Naval Combat System

In fact, after the entire Gulf War, the battle itself was very limited in Alice's interests, and oil is the lifeblood of any industrialized country, but it has limited relevance to her, an investor who made his fortune in Silicon Valley. Before and after www.biquge.info the war, the price of oil rose or fell, and someone said that he cared about a bird's egg.

Therefore, the purpose of participating in the war is obvious and direct, that is, political influence.

After this war, this large number of temporarily purchased armaments, including the AC-130 attack aircraft and 30 Apaches in the Air Force, and the 100 Barrett sniper rifles purchased by the Army, were still owned by the Umbrella Company in the first place.

In the United States, private security and arming are such companies that can theoretically be carried out by any wealthy person. If Gates were willing, he could easily buy himself dozens of B-2 bombers after selling all his stocks, or personally fund the construction of an aircraft carrier group, and then sell lease contracts to the Department of Defense.

It's just that it can be returned, and very few people do it.

Those who can do this are also directly acting as arms dealers and selling arms directly, rather than stupidly raising a private army on a certain piece of land -- not to mention the bad effects that may be caused on the surface, we are businessmen, and we are not local tyrants and chieftains and royals in Africa and the Middle East, so what is the use of raising an army?

Therefore, when the former Blackwater International Security Force in Alice's hands, now the umbrella security force, has such a combat power that cannot be ignored, the Ministry of Defense will naturally have thoughts.

At the conference table, the first thing that came to mind was the business of the "umbrella security company".

"Our training base in the Grand Disneymore Swamp, North Carolina, provides tactical and weapons training services to the military, government law enforcement and security agencies. In addition to this, the training center offers several open enrollment courses on a regular basis each year, including hand-to-hand combat, precision rifle shooting, etc., or can be open to civilians. ”

"Then, the former Blackwater, now Umbrella Security Consulting, can provide professional dignitary bodyguards for anyone in need, which is our old business. In the same way, since most of our employees are retired elite U.S. special forces, the military can also directly hire us to do recruit training, which we have not yet started. ”

"Formerly Blackwater, now Umbrella Canine Training, trains police dogs in skills such as patrolling, detecting explosives, searching for drugs, and other capabilities needed by the military and law enforcement. I remember that in New Mexico, especially in the city of Alpaso, the exchange of fire between the anti-narcotics police and the old Mexican drug dealers was no less than a battlefield, and I believe it will be a big market. ”

"In view of the increase in the strength of our air force, we are planning to establish a subsidiary of the 'Scepter of God' recently. Another example is the occurrence of this Gulf War-type incident, the Aquila No. 1 E-3 early warning plane, the Aquila No. 2 AC-130 heavy attack plane, and the lone wolf Apache helicopter formation can rush to the battlefield at any time. ”

In fact, the most noteworthy of the attention of those present is the last one. Actually want to call it the staff of God, many people want to laugh in their hearts, the girl really knows how to name it.

And it's really inhumane.

Everyone here knows how far the stock prices of Microsoft and Cisco have risen, and they all know that although the umbrella has not yet been listed, the annual profits in the field of medicine alone are already amazing. But despite this, the purchase of twenty-seven Apaches, almost the same number of Chinooks, one E-3 AWACS aircraft and one AC-130 air gunboat in one go, this total amount ......

In fact, many people now want to ask, is Alice, a girl, really not treating money as money?

Well, if an eighteen-year-old girl, while still going to school, only took six years to save a personal worth of tens of billions, then it is really reasonable not to treat money as money.

In this way, in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere, Alice first signed a series of preliminary contracts with the Ministry of Defense. Training soldiers or something, the army itself can do this work, but can Delta and Navy SEAL veteran instructors be mass-produced and distributed to the recruit barracks at will?

And then it came to the business of Grizzly armored vehicles. Now that the Gulf War has just ended, and the time is only late February, the Ministry of National Defense's budget is abundant, and of course there is spare money to purchase new combat vehicles. However, before confirming the order, more people still have to witness the practicality of this battlefield, the video of the battle situation is not enough, and on-site observation is also needed.

Alice is of course very confident in the results, and the problems of orders, selling prices and production are easy to solve. The Army has Bradley infantry fighting vehicles that have just been installed in '83, and although the Grizzly armored vehicles are good, they are not hungry. So, isn't it enough to let this big guy with an average unit price of $1.5 million deliver 300 tons in the next five years?

Well, in this way, there is no need for the umbrella armored vehicle subsidiary to spend money to expand production capacity~

As for Cisco, IBM, AT&R and other companies, the communication system that they have teamed up to build for this war......

Of course, this matter will not be told to the public, so the stock prices of various companies are still the same, but Cisco's hardware products, Microsoft's NT system, have expanded the market to the core military and political departments of the United States. These things are easy to say, as long as the NSA doesn't come up with the Prism Gate plan that discredited Cisco, everything is OK.

Then, another key topic was raised by His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief of the Navy.

That's how the Navy behaved in this campaign.

During the entire Gulf War, both the total number of troops and the performance of the US military were unmatched in the world in the next 20 years or so.

Six of the 16 active aircraft carriers were dispatched, including five conventionally powered, one nuclear-powered USS Nimitz Roosevelt, four battleships, two Iowa-class USS Missouri and USS Wisconsin, 16 cruisers, three nuclear-powered, 12 destroyers, 12 frigates, six amphibious assault ships, seven dock landing ships, seven transport ships, and eight tank landing ships. Los Angeles-class nuclear submarines, two of which entered the war.

It can be said that even after more than 20 years, all countries other than the United States will not be able to put together a naval task force of this size, and this is only a part of its entire navy.

However, if a person, or a force, needs to seek satisfaction by comparing himself with the outside world, then he is not far from destruction. In this war, the navy sent troops to be terrible, but when the commander-in-chief spoke at the meeting, he immediately bitterly described its various bad performances.

"In the early days of Operation Desert Shield, because the overall capacity was not good, we had to let the soldiers and equipment be transported separately! The soldiers flew naked by civil aviation and landed in Saudi Arabia without protection. When the people arrived, the tanks and self-propelled guns were still floating in the ro-ro ships at sea, and they were completely ineffective for a week or two. In case Saddam Hussein really went crazy and attacked Saudi Arabia after invading Kuwait, with our aircraft carriers cruising in the Persian Gulf at that time, could we stop him!?"

"Moreover, Miss Wang's analysis of our navy at the beginning of the war has really been verified! Our aircraft carrier air force arrangement is still arranged in accordance with the style of independent operations during the Vietnam War, and now it is required to cooperate with the army and air force, and there are too many problems exposed!"

"Not to mention the lack of precision-guided bombs. Our F-14s lack an airborne target recognition system and are equipped to protect aircraft carriers, and have not been placed in an optimal combat air patrol position. You've seen the whole battle as well, and no one has launched an attack on the navy, and it's a waste to ship them all the way!"

The good meeting suddenly turned into a rebuke from the commander-in-chief of the Navy, and he also mentioned Alice's initial evaluation, which made Bush Sr. and the Secretary of Defense look at each other for a while. Seeing this, Alice hurriedly looked at her chest, her chest, her ass, and her feet, looking like she had nothing to do with herself, huh......

When it was her turn to speak, she raised her hand tremblingly: "When it comes to building a new naval combat system, San Diego's Northrop Grumman has formed a cooperative relationship with me, which may be of great help." Mr. Commander-in-Chief, if you have any requests, I am still very confident in my design ability. ”

Everyone here, who is not a scheming guy, just waiting for Alice's words.

Ordinary cooperation between enterprises has to investigate each other's details, and the Pentagon and Alice's can be an exception, everyone in the audience knows that from the products of Cisco at the beginning, to the business model of Vanda Plaza recently, to the structural blueprint of Alice Building, to the patent of the umbrella diet pill instigation, and even the design of the grizzly armored car that is being talked about at this time, Alice herself did it!

And sure enough, this girl said that she was going to help the Navy build a new combat system?

Although everyone can do this work, if you really want to outsource it to a capable person, who doesn't want to let yourself feel less pressure?

"If Miss Wang can really do it, it would be great, and as for the price, it's all easy to say. The elder Bush said: "However, in terms of specific requests, we cannot give you an answer right now, and we will send you an encrypted e-mail when we discuss the results." So Miss Wang, maybe you can think about it now, how to charge the consultant fee?"

Spending the country's money is not distressing, and earning the country's money is not polite, helping the navy build a new combat system, how many potential follow-up benefits are contained in this, it is simply impossible to count on the toes. Bush Sr. asked Alice about the consultant's fee here, and what Alice thought of was far away.

Northrop Grumman, which is in partnership with itself, has the only shipyard in the world that produces Nimitz aircraft carriers, and is also strong in military aircraft research and development and radar production. With its heritage, it's okay to really create some bizarre fantasies~

What is the new naval combat system, and I really think about it.
