Chapter 214: My Battlefield Is Beyond Earth (Part 1)
With Fitz and Ivan, Lao Wang has the confidence to fool the Ministry of Defense.
Soon met with Colonel Rod, Lao Wang didn't say a word, and asked Fitz to state the idea of aircraft 1-3 on the spot, and a series of professional terms did not stun the other party.
Colonel Rhodes, as the head of the U.S. Army's Weapons Development Department, is himself a weapons expert with more weight than Justin Hammer, and although he doesn't know much about research and development, he can still figure out the general situation.
Know the goods.
After just a few words, he could be sure:
The young man in front of him, who looks like he is 20 years old at most, is much more reliable than Justin Hammer.
The original Hammer Steel Soldier, in his opinion, is not even worth 50 million US dollars, the problem is that the order of the Ministry of Defense involves the interests of all aspects, and cannot be simply measured, although he is the minister of the Department of Weapons Development, in the final analysis, he is a small minion, in this kind of large-scale procurement, there is no word at all.
One is nearly 130 million, and I don't know how much has gone into the pockets of the bigwigs.
The Azeroth Iron Soldier described by Fitz is much more reliable than the original Iron Soldier alone, not to mention the better No. 2 and No. 3 aircraft, each of which is divided into four models: Navy, Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps.
As a purely military man, Colonel Rhodes was thrilled.
These Iron Soldiers may not be as good as the Iron Man suit, but they are still reliable.
Now the question is, in terms of price......
"The No. 1 machine is 100 million US dollars, the No. 2 machine is 200 million, and the No. 3 machine is 300 million, which is simple and easy to remember."
Lao Wang shrugged: "I heard that Tony gives a case of red wine every $500 million?" I'm not that stingy. How about these steel soldiers with a lifetime warranty, and an extra full-body spray paint? ”
"Thank you." Rod nodded.
It is indeed much more cost-effective than the original, Master Wang is a good person, no wonder Agent May keeps saying good things about him, Coulson's evaluation is also very high, and the eyes of the masses are bright, and Director Fury is not allowed to slander him.
"I need to make a phone call." Rod raised his phone.
He can't make decisions about such a big matter, and he has to report it to his superiors.
But after all, there was an explanation before he came, and the price given by Boss Wang was really not high, so Rod quickly finished the phone call with a smile on his face: "40 units of No. 1 machine, 20 units of No. 2 machine, 4 units of No. 3 machine, plus other arms, a total of 10 billion." Mr. Wang, congratulations! ”
Lao Wang held Rod's hand: "Tongxi." ”
The order of 10 billion was quickly finalized, and Lao Wang and Skye looked at each other and smiled.
Judging from the data, the No. 1 machine is much better than the original Hammer Steel Soldiers, but if you only look at the cost, I'm afraid it will be even lower, because the materials used are relatively poor-
It's just that the data is good, in fact, the performance is not necessarily comparable to that of the Hammer Steel Soldiers, and in the face of missiles, artillery and even high-explosive shells, the external armor is not much different from a layer of paper.
Of course, the actual performance of the No. 2 machine must be far superior to that of the Hammer Steel Soldier, comparable to the Mark 2, the No. 3 machine is comparable to the Mark 3, and the No. 4 machine, which has not been disclosed to the Ministry of Defense for the time being, is even closer to the Mark 7.
The endurance is much worse, and the palladium energy version is one level worse than the cosmic cube isotope, which is a technological gap that even Fitz can't overcome.
The more the quantity, the lower the cost, plus all kinds of corners, the cost of the No. 1 machine is at most 30 million US dollars, the No. 2 machine is 50 million US dollars, and the No. 3 machine is 100 million US dollars.
And it's not a one-shot deal.
The energy of the Ark reactor is limited, should I change the palladium energy plate when it runs out?
The main body is not vibranium, there is a problem with stability, it will be replaced after a few uses, do you want money?
Stainless steel, titanium alloy or gold titanium alloy cannot absorb energy, has limited defense power, and has no memory function, should it be replaced once damaged?
The internal components are so expensive and easy to be damaged, should they be checked and maintained regularly?
The weapon system uses special bullets and missiles, which cannot be bought on the market at all, and can only be produced here, should they be purchased in large quantities?
In addition, even if a steel soldier can be used for ten or twenty years, even if there is no fighting, the hardware does not need to be replaced, what about the software, the intelligent control system?
Every time a new version comes out, do you want to update it, does it also cost money?
This is a special industrial chain and ecological chain!
An order of 10 billion can earn more than 6 billion on the surface, but in fact, it can earn at least 8 billion.
Profiteering indeed!
Colonel Rhodes or the Ministry of Defense probably thought that with these steel soldiers, there would not be a second order for at least 10 years.
But they didn't know that the most exciting and dangerous era of war in the Marvel universe had come!
Orders never decrease.
It's only going to get more and more!
Of course, it doesn't matter what you make money or whatever.
The reason why it is necessary to open an arms company is not for the sake of the Ministry of Defense at all, but for the sake of the Divine Stick Bureau.
Once the Divine Stick Bureau is formed, once it intervenes in the cosmic war, it needs to be good enough and enough arms support.
He was only reassured by his arms company.
Rest assured only of your own people.
……
……
With the munitions factory, there is no need for Lao Wang to leave Kun fighters, helicopters, and destroyers in San Juan.
Hammer Industries is also the largest arms contractor for the Department of Defense, involving all aspects.
Mainly firearms and individual soldiers, artillery, missile weapons, explosives, for tanks, armored vehicles, aircraft, ships and space equipment, not much.
This is obviously a big shortcoming, and Lao Wang decided to fully coordinate sustainable development from now on.
It was enough for the Azeroth steel soldiers to have Fiz and some technicians, and Lao Wang called other technical backbones over, plus talents poached from other companies with high salaries, and began a comprehensive analysis and research of Kun fighters and destroyers.
Strive to master all technologies.
This is also a money-burning industry, but Wang quickly got the advance money and research funds from the Ministry of Defense, and Azeroth Industries also has a large amount of liquidity left by Justin Hammer, as much as billions, which can be used casually.
Originally, so many funds had to be approved by the board of directors, but Lao Wang made a decision, and no one dared to object-
Who would dare to provoke a ruthless man who has destroyed the Hand and the Hydra?
That's looking for death!
Lao Wang has his own plans.
The battlefield of the Divine Stick Bureau is in space, outside the earth, and it has little dependence on ocean ships, but it has a great dependence on aircraft, especially those that can fly out of the earth.
S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Lightspeed Engine technology is certainly not available, but he has the entire World of Warcraft to support it.
The significance of the existence of the Kun fighter is just to use the existing R&D personnel as a sample, take its essence and remove its dross, and what really depends on is actually the science and technology of another system.
Of course, that's an afterword, the eyes can be high, the hands can't be low, and you must do a good job in the moment.
The Divine Stick Bureau has not yet been established, and these can only be thought about, but I have to say that Fitz's ability is not ordinarily strong.
The design of the Iron Soldier of Azeroth 1 was quickly completed and production was launched.
A month later, the Azeroth exhibition took place as scheduled.
At the same time, Lao Wang received a call from the boiled egg.
"Master Wang, the United Nations Security Council has convened an emergency meeting...... What I promised you, it's done! ”
