Chapter 1211: Behind the Magic
The weapons equipped by the US military are definitely the most technological and offensive in the world, which is also the pride of the US military leadership, but a group of bigwigs in the president's office were killed by Mr. Secretary of Defense in one fell stab, and they suddenly became speechless.
The fourth-generation fighter mass manufacturing and replacement program, that is, the joint strike fighter project, is a pain in the eye for the US military, and there has been no verification aircraft yet, and the US government is also embarrassed. The R&D funds for this project are not provided by the United States itself, and many countries participate!
"On 25 July, the mercenary corps will hold the first international defense exhibition in Sestopol, Ukolan, which is divided into one promotion venue and three exhibition venues, and the products of the navy, land and air force can be exhibited.
"In the past, it was the United States that accounted for more than half of the world's arms exports, but now, it is the mercenary corps that occupies more than 80 percent of the share, and our military industrial enterprises have strongly demanded to the government that this time they must show the strength and advantages of the United States, and they can no longer be suppressed by mercenary corps." said the chief of staff.
"Some time ago, the mercenary corps signed a series of arms orders in South American countries, which are said to be hundreds of billions of dollars, most of which are lightweight, not high-end for the mercenary corps, the navy has amphibious assault ships and missile destroyers, as well as AIP conventional-powered submarines and missile speedboats, and the army is mainly composed of various types of combat vehicles modified from main battle tanks, and the reason why this exhibition is held is estimated to raise military funds for the second DRC war." said the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
"This is simply an incredible thing, we all know that the major scientific research institutions of the mercenary corps are mainly composed of those former Soviet scientific researchers recruited, in the Cold War period, the resources and strength of the former Soviet Union have always been pressed and beaten by the United States, what is happening now, is the United States regressing or the world is changing?" said the National Security Advisor.
The history of the development of the mercenary corps, also known as a miracle in the miracle of modern history, started from a small team of 100 people, and in just eight years, it has reached such heights, and governments and militaries around the world are studying the truth.
The United States has been a dominant country since World War II, and reached its peak during the Cold War, and no country in the world can compete with the United States alone in terms of scientific research and industrial strength, including the old capitalist countries, that is, European countries.
However, the appearance of the mercenary corps, slapping the US government in the face one after another, there is no harm if there is no comparison, take the current arms exports, the mercenaries claim to be conscientious exporters, and all the weapons and equipment are compared, the United States has those simple versions, and Russia has those monkey versions, which completely hurts the hearts of the purchasers.
"This shows Wu Chen's strategic layout ability, he single-handedly hollowed out the legacy of the former Soviet Union, except for nuclear weapons, the rest of the essence can be said to have been moved to Ukolan, forming the world's second largest scientific and technological research and development group, laying the foundation for the military development of the mercenary corps."
"For example, the Antonov Design Bureau of the former Soviet Union, which is the ace of the global design and manufacture of transport aircraft, the Ivchenko Progressive Design Bureau and the Madasich Engine Plant, the main manufacturing base of aircraft engines, the Southern Design Bureau, the main missile design institutions of the former Soviet Union, the Southern Machine-Building Plant and the Pavlograd Machine-Building Plant, which are specialized in the production of rockets and intercontinental ballistic missiles, the Kharkov Molozov Machine-Building Design Bureau and the Malyshev Plant, one of the main bases of the former Soviet Union's main battle tanks."
"The Institute of Materials Science, the Institute of Superhard Materials, the Institute of Crystallography, the Institute of Strength Problems and the Institute of Metal Physics, which are the five major materials research institutes in the former Soviet Union, the Barton Welding Institute of Ukolan, its technology is leading the world, and it is more powerful than the technology of the United States, needless to say." The Minister of Defense's eyes were red with envy.
When the former Soviet Union collapsed, the United States also spent time to poach people in Ukolan, talent is the greatest asset, but the effect received is very few. Few of the scientific researchers of the former Soviet Union, especially those national treasure-level experts, were willing to work in the United States, even if the salary was sky-high, but in turn they were given a pot by the mercenary army.
"In particular, the integration of the industrial strength of Ukolan, the formation of the Ukolan military industrial complex, this production cluster is too powerful, up to now, there are more than 1,200 enterprises, all the weapons and equipment of the navy, land and air forces can be manufactured, more than half of which are wholly owned by mercenary corps, and the rest are holdings."
"It is mainly divided into several major sectors, machinery manufacturing sector, power manufacturing sector, electronic equipment manufacturing sector, electrical equipment manufacturing sector, metal processing sector, computer and software development sector, nuclear industry sector, etc., as long as the drawings and requirements are provided, these enterprises can manufacture qualified products in the shortest possible time."
"For example, for an aircraft carrier, the Black Sea Shipyard is responsible for the assembly and welding of the hull, and the rest is to be manufactured by the Ukolan military-industrial complex, and the various components of the hull are responsible for the metal processing sector, and the electronic equipment, electrical equipment, power equipment, reactors, computers, combat systems, etc., are also responsible for their respective plates."
"Everyone is performing their duties and working closely together, and the Ukolan military-industrial complex can not only produce military products, but also civilian products, and this kind of industrial cluster advantage even American companies feel red." The CIA director said.
"If this situation continues, the speed of weapons and equipment manufacturing of the US military will lag far behind that of mercenaries, which is one of our weaknesses. The reason why the whole country was mobilized to produce during World War II was because the standard of weapons and equipment at that time was not high, the technical content was very low, and any enterprise could participate in manufacturing, but now it is the use of cutting-edge technology, even if the equipment of aircraft carriers can be manufactured separately, but what about the hull? ”
"The Black Sea Shipyard and Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard of the mercenary regiment have two large slipways, and the St. Petersburg Northern Shipyard has one, which adds up to five large slipways, which can start building five 100,000-ton aircraft carriers at a time, and only the Newport News shipyard in the United States now has such capabilities, this is the gap." said the Minister of Defense.
The current development model of the mercenary corps in the military industry is also the ultimate model that the US military hopes to have, which can complete the manufacturing task in the shortest possible time, and this huge industrial cluster will train more and more skilled workers, which is the most valuable asset, and the number of skilled workers directly affects the quality and speed of products.
