Chapter 657 - The Reason I Didn't Find (3/5 Asking for Subscription)
Raytheon's 'Iron Overlord' weapons display was a success, but it was also a failure.
Success is naturally due to the fact that the Iron Overlord is powerful, and for this world that has not yet fully accepted the existence of the 'Bright Light' armor, the Iron Overlord can almost be called the most advanced and sci-fi weapon.
Yes, the most sci-fi, the most advanced, but not the most powerful weapon.
Neither the Iron Overlord nor the 'Bright Light' armor have a devastating effect, and even conventional missiles can cause far more lethality than these two advanced weapons, not to mention nuclear weapons.
That's where the Iron Overlord weapon show was unsuccessful.
After visiting the whole demonstration process, a congressman once again raised his own question: "In my opinion, your Raytheon company's 'Iron Overlord' is just an upgraded version of the tank in terms of function, the tank used to be the hegemon of land warfare, but when the precision strike effect of modern weapons is becoming more and more powerful, the role of the tank is no longer very good, as far as I know, countries have been reducing their investment in the research and development of tanks." ”
"Your 'Iron Overlord' is equipped with an anti-missile system, which can effectively avoid the strike of precision-guided weapons, and can also fly and quickly enter the designated combat area. Its attack pattern doesn't look much different from that of a tank, however, it does have a limited amount of ammunition it can carry in a single sortie. When there is no ammo, attacking with fists is good, but its attack speed is too slow. ”
"3 billion dollars, and energy engine technology, in my opinion, it is better to transform a batch of tanks, a batch of tanks with the ability to fly."
After saying this, the congressman did not say goodbye directly, even if he commented that the Iron Overlord project was a doomed project.
After hearing these words, Hammer's face did not change unpleasantly, but deep down he had a lot of opinions about this congressman.
Although he is the nominal boss of Raytheon, he just has more shares and more right to speak, and he is not at all like Wen Ming's power in the umbrella company. The Iron Overlord project, which mobilized almost all the funds and various manpower and material resources, was a way for him to ensure his right to speak in Raytheon.
If the Iron Overlord project is waste and flashy, then his position in Raytheon will also be shaken.
"It seems that Mr. Senator doesn't know much about real war."
Hammer still had a smile on his face, but his words were already a little unkind, and he continued: "Moreover, today's display is just a show, and it is impossible to fully display the strength of the Iron Overlord without the real war as a background. ”
Raytheon, as one of the world's top five arms giants, naturally has relevant analysts, if it weren't for those analysts who believe that the Iron Overlord can achieve very good results in the war, even if Byron hands over the technology to Raytheon for free, Hammer will not be able to carry out this Steel Overlord project.
At most, build one or two 'play and play'.
The congressman, who was disappointed with the Iron Overlord project, was not angry when he heard Hammer's slightly sarcastic words after talking on paper.
People of their level, even if they are really angry, it is impossible for them to quarrel or even turn their faces in person.
Parliamentarians from certain countries on TV will even fight at meetings, and who can be sure that they are not acting?
What Mr. Hammer means ...... Iron Overlord is about to enter a real war? ”
When the question was asked, the others looked at Hammer, a little puzzled because they hadn't received any news about it before.
Hammer smiled again, this kind of knowing that others don't know, including members of the U.S. Congress and military executives, is the reason why he can take charge of Raytheon, and it is also the reason why Byron, the current vice president of the United States, is willing to cooperate with him.
"Yes, in a month at most, the Iron Overlord will appear on the real battlefield, and at that time, I think, there will be an answer to whether this project is worth investing in, whether it can bring benefits to Raytheon, whether it can bring benefits to the United States."
Several members of Congress and the military's top brass instantly thought of where there would be real battlefields in the world within a month.
There are places where there has been war, and there are places where there may be wars, which are also in their considerations.
Since Hammer didn't say it, they didn't ask it, as long as they went back and took a good look, they would naturally be able to determine where the Iron Overlord would appear.
A roar not far away,
The 12 steel armors were re-lined up, and after the first armor completed the 'individual soldier' display, the other 11 steel armor also moved to complete a team battle drill demonstration.
But limited by the venue and environment, it is not too brilliant, compared to the two appearances of the 'Mingguang' armor on TV, it is not worth mentioning, which is why the councillor just now belittled the Iron Overlord.
The 12 Iron Overlords stood solemnly again, and from beginning to end, none of these people saw the person who manipulated the Iron Overlord.
Hammer left the exhibition hall with the group, and when they parted, a congressman who had a good relationship with Hammer and had been in line with the previous display suddenly said: "The only thing I am dissatisfied with about this project is that the name of the Iron Overlord is ...... compared to the name of Wenming's 'Mingguang' armor."
The words were not finished, but Hammer had already understood, and he smiled: "It doesn't really matter what the name is, and besides, what is the significance of the historical background of 'Mingguang' for the current Huaxia?" Do they still have to learn the cold weapon combat methods they used in the Tang Dynasty? ”
"We have a short history in the United States, but we are now the most powerful country in the world, because we never look backwards, only forwards. History is such a thing, since it has passed, it should be left in the book. ”
"When the Iron Overlord proves that it is more powerful than the 'Mingguang', I don't think anyone in the world will remember the meaning of the name of the 'Mingguang' armor again, and will only remember the strength of the Iron Overlord."
……
Headquarters of SHSD, Canada.
Wen Ming, who stayed here, received the latest information, laughed and asked, "That's what he said?" ”
Fran nodded and said, "He doesn't know that the councilor who has a good relationship with him has become our person, and this is the information that the councilor said himself, and there will be no falsehood." ”
Yes, the congressman who had been echoing Hammer and had only asked questions about his name in the end had joined Wen Ming and Teresa Roy's camp. If Hammer had known, he would have regretted inviting the MP.
Wen Ming smiled: "It seems that he is ready to use the Iron Overlord to solve me, but I don't know, who is the person behind him?" ”
Fran said: "Boss, I suggest increasing the level of security. ”
How can you prove that the Iron Overlord is more powerful than the 'Bright Light' armor?
Naturally, it is not just about performance data, and the most effective way to prove it is naturally to fight. But now the whole world knows that the 'Mingguang' armor is only worn by three people, and no matter which one Raytheon is going to fight, it is directly against Wen Ming.
Then they might as well ...... Just sniff out!
Wen Ming shook his head and said, "No need, I've always carried the 'Mingguang' armor, and I've been trying to find a way to shorten the time to change clothes, even if I am surrounded by their 12 Iron Overlords, I can escape." Not to mention...... Do I really need to escape? ”
The performance of the 'Mingguang' armor seen by audiences all over the world is also the performance of the 'Mingguang' armor seen by Raytheon, but is the 'Mingguang' armor really only those performances?
Wen Ming knew this best in his heart, and he also knew the performance parameters of the Iron Overlord, so he was full of confidence.
"The question now is ......"
Wen Ming paused for a moment and said, "That Hammer, since it is said that the Iron Overlord wants to prove himself in the real battlefield, then, will they send the Iron Overlord to Mozambique?" ”
Fran frowned and said, "I've stepped up my intelligence gathering efforts in this area, and I haven't given back yet. Judging by the temporary situation, there is no reason for Raytheon to send the Steel Overlord to Mozambique, and there is no reason for the US government. ”
Wen Ming shook his head again and said, "Sometimes, it's not that they don't have a reason, it's that we haven't found their reason yet. ”
