Chapter 100: The Trace of the Bug
After the woman asked, he replied in a low voice:
"Miss Windsor, just now I went to see the armor of the First Military Industrial Laboratory, the other party's mecha is one level higher than the mecha we designed, at least more than ten years ahead of us, except that the engine part is closer to ours, their design and construction are more perfect than ours, and they are more suitable for use on the battlefield;
As for George's matter, it should have nothing to do with them, judging from the news that our people have found from all sides, the new boss of Rocky Industries is a hidden tycoon, with a lot of technology accumulation in his hands, with the current technology of Rocky Industries on mechas, he can't ask for our MN-3 information, maybe this new boss saw the foundation of Rocky Industries, and took the opportunity to acquire it while Rocky was facing bankruptcy.
However, there is one thing that is very strange, the military has set the information of the boss of Loki Industries as a top secret, almost the same level as your class, Miss, and the only way to find out who he really is is the military top brass and the president of the Bundestag. ”
Windsor clasped her hands in her arms, she nodded slightly and said:
"It doesn't matter what's best, as for who Loki's boss is, we don't need to care too much, since our mecha is not as good as people, just let the research institute continue to develop, anyway, the military will not purchase a large number of them now, our main direction is still warships and engines, this time you see how much of the military's purchase share we can get?"
Antonios turned on the projector in his hand, he looked at the comparative parameters on the image and the assessment that the military was making and said:
"Our engines are the top products, and major companies have purchased them, and the military has to maintain hundreds of large spacecraft and tens of thousands of small spacecraft, and they have to buy at least 50 billion worth of engines from us every year;
As for the spaceship, the D-type medium-sized cruiser we developed is the most cost-effective, and the military has a purchase plan of 16 ships that will fall into our hands, but our large battleships and transports are slightly worse than those of the Edmund Company, and the price is not low, so it is estimated that we will not be able to get orders. ”
Windsor says:
"It's good to be able to sell so much, the top ten arms companies of the Federation, the Delaire Group almost monopolizes individual weapons, the Ske Consortium and Moss Industries have formed direct competition in armored vehicles, assault guns and naval guns, Mandel, Lake, and our purple light have their own outstanding and backward points in the field of warships, and the remaining four have been squeezed out by us to the point that they are about to be unsustainable;
According to my analysis, once the Federation makes a war plan to exterminate the Zerg on a large scale, the competition in the arms business will be even greater, so the company must step up the research of new products and not fall behind other companies. ”
"Do we still need to pay attention to Rocky Industries?" Antonios asked.
Windsor's eyes were fixed on the exhibition area of Rocky Industries, unlike other exhibition areas, in front of those majestic mechas, at this time, it was already full of people from the military and major enterprises, especially when they saw the picture of the military testers operating the mecha fighting in the projection screen, many people kept screaming.
"A T1 land mecha, the price is close to a small cruiser, a T3 space mecha, even the same price as half of our medium-sized cruiser, even if it is powerful, it is only a single weapon, and those stupid forks in the military will not buy much when they don't know the real combat ability of the mecha, at most buy a few land mecha as a test.
Unless the military top brass doesn't intrigue, Loki Industries' mechs will sell well, giving humans absolute ground superiority in the war against the Zerg, but will this happen? ”
Windsor said with a smile, Antonios also shook his head and smiled, the six marshals of the military each have their own forces, although Generalissimo Dean is the commander of the military, the only armies that can be quickly commanded are the First and Sixth Fleets, plus there are many factions in the Federal Assembly, it is impossible to approve the purchase of large quantities of combat mechas.
If a mecha wants to have an absolute advantage, three or five can't do it, a fleet has to have at least hundreds of various mechas, and six fleets are thousands, at the price of hundreds of millions to billions of mechas, more than trillions of separate appropriations The military and the federation estimate that it will not be able to complete it for several years.
Since they can't do it, some people in the military have taken a fancy to these mechas, at most they can only spend tens of billions of funds to purchase a few mecha for battlefield testing, if they want to really form a mecha legion, even if the military wants to, those people in the parliament will let this matter go to ruin.
Windsor thought so, but she ignored one thing she knew, that is, soon the Federation will start a war against the Zerg, and when the large-scale battle begins, the military will urgently need mechas, which are high-attack and low-risk weapons, and Yunan has his own reasons for developing mechas.
The military bidding meeting lasted only three days, and after successive consultations between the military's appraisal experts and high-level officials, they finally made a decision to purchase 10 large battleships, 30 medium-sized cruisers, 80 small cruisers, and 150 large transport ships, and countless medium-sized equipment purchases, with a value of nearly 500 billion yuan.
As Windsor guessed, the sales of Rocky Industries' mecha were very satisfactory to the military department's top brass and evaluation experts, but the expensive combat mechs could not be bought much, and finally the military department purchased a space mecha, an atmospheric combat mecha and five land mechas, ready to be sent to the front line for combat testing.
For this news, Yu Nan is already very satisfied, because if this business goes out, the development of Rocky's industry can continue, not to mention that the landing capsule that several large companies are unwilling to produce is produced by Rocky, and it is still possible to maintain the stability of the company.
Yu Nan asked the White Queen to improve the landing capsule, these landing modules rely on feedback radar for landing evasion, and their own propulsion system is not very effective, once they land on a large scale, they will be wiped out by a large number of Zerg plasma cannons like in the movie;
Therefore, Yu Nan asked the White Queen to transform the landing module, transform the evasion capability into a low-level active radar, and also transform the propulsion system, so that the ground attack can be predicted and evaded at high speed, and at least the danger of the landing module being attacked can be reduced by more than 90 percent.
Just half a day after the end of the military bidding meeting, the Planet P began to become weird, and the signals of Zerg scouts appeared on the active radars of more than a dozen outposts.
"Sir, come and see."
In the sixth outpost, Xibo suddenly shouted loudly, Yu Nan quickly walked to the radar display screen in the hall, and three flashing bright spots appeared on the hillside west of the outpost on the screen, he grabbed the electronic telescope and quickly rushed to the top of the outpost, and looked with the telescope to see that on the hillside, three tall and fierce black bugs were dancing with their front paws and constantly jumping.
