Chapter 249: Self-reliance
The handover of technical information went smoothly, and after Marcus had confirmed the account of the Swiss bank and deposited the required amount of advances, the Golden Triangle International Security Company, operated by Hunter, took a special plane to Sudan and handed it over to a businessman who had come here to inspect oil production.

"The technical information provided by the Golden Triangle International Security Company has been carefully checked by experts from the Navy's R&D department, and it is indeed true, but the person who came forward on the other side is Deputy General Manager Hunter, which shows that the company's highest decision-making power is in the hands of those two foreigners, and Wu Chen only has the right to make suggestions or a vote."
"Even so, if there is no channel for him to connect the two of us in the middle, it is estimated that things will definitely not go so smoothly and be completed in such a short time, therefore, if the state wants to give him a great credit, you can secretly reveal it to Wu Chen." After answering the call from his superiors, the team leader said to Lin Qingyi.
At present, Ukolan has become a weapons and equipment manufacturing base for mercenary regiments, and more than 100 enterprises are working day and night in order to produce various parts and components for the three major shipyards and aerospace manufacturing companies, and to create more than one million jobs.
The Ukolan government attaches great importance to the economic development brought about by the military industry, and is very appreciative of the practice of shipyards and aerospace manufacturing companies in contracting business abroad, because this can reduce the unemployment rate in the country and increase a lot of taxes for the government.
Before going to Russia, Wu Chen came to Ukolan for about a week, accompanied by Marcas, to make a tour of his own industry, the mercenary corps' strategic air force is very narrow, for this it is necessary to develop a strong navy.
He first came to the Dahai Shipyard to inspect the production of bison hovercraft, and the Saudi orders that are currently being produced.
"I give you a new requirement, the Great Sea Shipyard is one of the three major shipyards under the Rainbow Shipping Company, not only to manufacture Bison hovercraft, but also to prepare for the production of American Wasp-class amphibious assault ships, which belongs to a trend in the Navy in the future."
"To this end, I am ready to transfer part of the business to Russian shipyards, shorten delivery times, build two or three for ourselves, and do preliminary work on amphibious assault ships." Wu Chen said to the factory director.
He then went to the June 1 shipyard and inspected the upgrading of six Alpha-class attack nuclear submarines and two Typhoon-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, which were among the first nuclear submarines to be refitted.
"In addition to upgrading the nuclear submarines, the 61 shipyard will manufacture Kilo-class conventional-powered submarines at full capacity in accordance with the technology provided by Russia, and this time the order is sixteen, in order to save time, I am ready to divide a part of the business to the Russian shipyard, especially the hull of the submarine, which can be shipped to Ukolan after it is built in Russia."
"Why am I doing this, because you have a more important mission, and the warships of the Navy are all special second-hand, which is a potential threat, so you have to continue to produce Kirov-class nuclear-powered missile cruisers and Glorious-class missile cruisers, at least you have to make preparations." Wu Chen said.
As for the Black Sea Shipyard, which is in full swing to manufacture aircraft carriers, Wu Chen made a request to the director of the shipyard that a group of key personnel must be transferred to carry out repairs on the USS Washington, which is about to be towed here, so as to form a combat strength as soon as possible.
It also requires the experts of the ship design institute to thoroughly understand the technology of this aircraft carrier, especially the nuclear reactor on it, and make technical preparations for the future nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and nuclear-powered missile cruiser.
And a new task was given, according to the ideas and specific requirements provided by him, to design a completely new nuclear-powered missile cruiser, the reference of which was the Kirov-class nuclear-powered missile cruiser, which was completed within a deadline of two months.
"Boss, I don't quite understand that Russia's nuclear-powered missile cruisers have played no role, why should we build such a behemoth, wouldn't it be good to build a few more Ticonderoga-class missile cruisers?" Marcus asked.
"You didn't pay attention to my request, the Kirov-class nuclear-powered missile cruiser is just a blueprint, in the future our nuclear-powered missile cruiser will definitely be a brand-new arsenal ship, although this kind of warship is expensive, but it has its own advantages, first of all, nuclear power is unlimited endurance, so that it reduces fuel replenishment, and can also patrol or combat at sea for a long time."
"Moreover, this kind of cruiser can carry hundreds of missiles on it, which is equivalent to a mobile missile arsenal, all using a vertical launch system, and can launch hundreds of missiles in a short time, and the strike power is very terrifying, and can cause fatal damage to the enemy's aircraft carrier fleet and ground targets, and our aircraft carriers need this auxiliary killer weapon."
"The nuclear-powered missile cruisers of the Russian Navy did not play a role, mainly because of two points, first, their aircraft carriers are not powerful, the number of carrier-based aircraft of conventionally powered aircraft carriers is small, the attack power is weak without steam catapults, they cannot provide protection for cruisers, and the ammunition they carry is insufficient!"
"Second, there is a big gap between Russia's electronic technology and Western countries, especially radar, and there is no Aegis combat system, so there is such a powerful nuclear-powered missile cruiser, but it has not played a role." Wu Chen said with a smile.
The two went to the aerospace manufacturing industry and inspected the design of the Haidongqing-1 twin-engine all-weather heavy fighter, the improvement of submarine-launched ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, the production of carrier-based aircraft and land-based fighters of the Shield Guardian 1, as well as the manufacture of airborne active phased array radars, sniper pods, and related parts of the Aegis combat system.
"I am going to divide the aerospace manufacturing company into two, the manufacturing plant in Ukolan, which is only responsible for the final assembly and sales work, and the production of transport aircraft and passenger aircraft, the production plant of future fighters, bombers, early warning aircraft, including helicopters, the production plant of aero engines and gas turbines, and the manufacturing plant of various missiles, for safety reasons, will slowly move from Ukolan to the Golden Triangle in the future."
"You all know the terrain of the Golden Triangle, there are many mountains, many rivers and forests, and it is very easy to hide, I will choose a place to build a core manufacturing base for weapons and equipment of the Air Force and Navy, and the research and development site will also be relocated, you must be mentally prepared for this." Wu Chen said solemnly.
"Are you hiding from the infiltration and surveillance of our countries, or even sabotage? I have also been thinking about this issue for a long time, after all, the Southern Design Bureau and the Southern Machine-Building Plant, which were formerly the missile production bases of the former Soviet Union, are the focus of attention of many countries. ”
"To tell you the truth, the counterintelligence team of the Shadow Organization has arrested more than a dozen foreign agents, in addition to the CIA, there are also Russian intelligence agents, and British and Israeli intelligence agencies."
"At present, the production workshops for key parts of the missiles are all filled by veteran workers who know the roots, and in this way, the secret investigation agencies have to monitor their activities at all times to avoid being bribed by foreign intelligence agencies, resulting in the leakage of secrets." The general manager of the company can understand Wu Chen's deep meaning very well.
