Chapter 367 Order

In a room in a building three hundred meters away, several well-dressed men in suits were working, some on the phone in a low-key manner, some at the computer.

This room has been in the highest level of security since an hour ago, and the people here can only eat and drink in this large suite.

But it doesn't matter, there's everything here anyway, except for the fact that you can't call a dancer, everything else can be satisfied.

This situation is usually accompanied by the completion of a very important financial layout.

"Now we've basically completed all the positions." Fanans let out a long sigh, clapped his hands, took a glass of Coke from the side and sucked it up.

"There are now more than 2,000 businesses that have confirmed that they will advertise with us, and they say they will support it at least for the first time. But I told them that when the time comes, the highest bidder wins, at least we've guaranteed that there are four competitors in the same category. Eddie followed, turning his chair, "Now it's up to us on the platform." Sotway, how are you? ”

"I'm here, I've determined the initial version of this platform, stress testing is underway, if it's deployed on a cloud server, we just need to find a company to sign a contract, maybe it's AOL." Sotway shrugged easily, "No problem, it's easy. ”

"Well, these are all good." Brian, who was sitting by the window and looking outside, turned around, "I'll report." Oh yes, you say it's okay to raise that many orders for THAAD at once? ”

"I don't know if it's good or not, but this kind of thing should be welcome, and we don't have to take any responsibility, and Congress won't ask why we're proposing it." Brian replied calmly.

Brian picked up a tablet to write and draw, and suddenly paused: "There is a situation, Professor Wilson of Harvard Medical School has seen the letter, and he forwarded this email to Pfizer." ”

"Do you want to buy? That company should put some news. ”

"Don't do it yet, you first reduce the position of other pharmaceutical stocks, and slowly increase the position of Pfizer. They should have to look into it. ”

Although I don't know what the situation is, sometimes I don't need to know why it's okay, such as this, a medicine that may be very useful, what is it for, I don't know, and quickly promote life?

…...

Pentagon, Ballistic Missile Defense Agency.

Lieutenant General Samuel Greaves, director of the bureau, looked with some sadness at the briefing he had just prepared, and in a few days he was going to attend the annual space and anti-missile conference, which was scheduled to give a brief report entitled "The Upgrade of Missile Defense."

The debriefing was prepared for a new budget, but now he had to re-submit it because the previous report had been put on hold indefinitely.

The reason is: boom.

"Does anyone know what's going on?" The lieutenant general opened his mouth to ask a few of his assistants, and there were a lot of lieutenant colonels and colonels, and everyone wanted to stop talking, stop talking and then sigh.

"Then why are we increasing THAAD orders?" The lieutenant general looked at his subordinates one by one, "I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with the order, but why are there so many at once, what happened?" What does this have to do with Pershing II, who was test-fired just now? ”

“...... Our homeland is at risk of being attacked. So this should be a package. ”

A package usually means a very thorough consideration, the mainland may be attacked, so it is necessary to practice the local missile defense capability, so it is necessary to launch three Pershing II with no warhead in a row, and then deploy a bunch of THAAD systems.

No problem!

However, the order is so urgent that the rules are broken!

You're not going to do a PR job?

Are so many lobbying companies going to starve to death, and there are so many relatives of parliamentarians to feed!

"You guys go out, I'm going to talk to the minister." The lieutenant general waved them all away.

THAAD stands for the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense System, which is a major project initiated by the bureau, and 30 years have passed since the project was established.

A THAAD package includes launchers carrying eight interceptor missiles, an AN/TPY-2X-band radar, a fire control communications system, and a combat management system.

Lockheed Martin Space Defense, Caterpillar Defense and Jet Aircraft supplied launchers and interceptors, Raytheon supplied AN/TPY-2 radars, and Boeing, Honeywell and Lockda Electronic Contracting Management and Command Systems.

The importance of a project that can fatten so many companies is self-explanatory, but suddenly so many orders come down without giving me a call.

However, James. Matisse didn't explain much, just said lightly to carry out the order.

He's now more focused on the people the military is sending to Los Angeles right now, and what they're doing.

For example, this one, he pointed his finger, and a picture opened, and the time display was three minutes ago, not because of the time difference, but because the data was transmitted from 30,000 feet to the ground, and then recompiled and reconstructed one by one.

This is the same F22 plane that flew from Edwards Air Force Base to Los Angeles, with two people crammed into the cockpit with only one seat.

Well, this statement is not accurate, the one who really used the plug was one, that Victor, the assistant of Old Ray.

The guy had vomited the lid and was now struggling to sit up clutching at the back of his chair.

"I said how long is it going to be?" He was asking.

"If it's fast, it'll be there in half an hour."

"Will we be able to land safely?" Victor was very worried about this, and heard that the wind was still strengthening in Los Angeles.

"I don't know, if it doesn't work, I'll jump at the right distance." The pilot replied lightly.

"What?" Victor couldn't believe what he was hearing, and he thought he was hallucinating without a load suit.

"Yes, HQ's order, you get ready, tie that harness to your waist with that harness on the side of my chair." The pilot showed no indication of his excitement.

"What?" Victor still didn't understand, even though he heard it in his ears.

"That means we may not be able to land safely because the wind is too strong, so we will use the near-ground ejection method to get out."

"Hell!" Victor is going crazy, such an important person as me, you say you're going to let me die on the journey?

Victor hurriedly fastened his seat belt, "Is that the kind of glass that blows up and pops up with the chair?" ”

"Yes!"

"Wouldn't it be a problem to add one person?"

"Yes, so we'd better ask God to bless us now."

"Mommy!" Victor looked out the window with a dead heart, "I don't want to die......"

"Well, I don't want to die either, I'll only lose one plane, unless it's too windy for us to open our parachute."

"The wind is so strong that you can't even get a plane?"

"Oh, but it's okay to eject close to the ground, the wind is strong enough to relieve the momentum."

"I said, are you so not afraid of death?"

"Well, I'm afraid!"

"Then why are you so calm?"

"I don't want to die in bed because I have cancer, but if I can die on my last flight, it's a good thing, and it can be passed down as a good story, it's a very important mission, right?"

Victor looked at the helmet with a painful look on his face, so it was a terminally ill patient who sent me to heaven because he had a last wish to die on his last flight?

Matisse also felt that his eggs were hurting, so why can't he be more careful when choosing people below?

Connected with the person below and asked directly about the situation: "What's the matter with this pilot, he still flies with cancer?" ”

"There are several reasons, one is that there is an extra person in the cockpit, and the seat position needs to be adjusted, so the pilot can't be too big. In addition, because this is a highly dangerous mission, there is a voluntary principle, and many people are reluctant to go when they see that it is too dangerous. We said that if we succeeded, we would treat him in the best way, and the medicine was all covered. And his technique is really good, but the embarrassing stage 3 cancer has not yet reached the level of affecting flight. ”
