Naturally, Miles will not fight alone, he also has allies.

As soon as he had finished speaking, people stood up and began to support his remarks.

"Gentlemen, do you have to wait until someone else's hypersonic missile hits your head."

"Can you understand the importance of anti-missile systems?"

Although this gentleman is a little alarmist, what he said is also the true thoughts of many people in this venue.

It is indeed good to develop hypersonic missiles and establish a reciprocal deterrent with the enemy.

But this thing, after all, is not a nuclear weapon, and the deterrent power is not so great.

As soon as the scale of the war reaches a certain level, it will be possible to unleash hypersonic weapons.

And what worries them the most now is that, according to the information that has been detected so far.

The range of the Longguo hypersonic missile is at least 7,000 kilometers.

Such a missile, which is only a little bit close to being called an intercontinental ballistic missile, is used to deliver nuclear warheads.

None of this is the point, the point is that he can actually threaten their homeland.

The Commonwealth's homeland has not experienced war for hundreds of years.

The long-lasting peace has not only convinced everyone that the Federation is a God-favored place.

And because of the long-term peace, it has attracted countless high-level talents and investors who are looking for a stable environment.

If one day, a missile falls on this continent and causes a violent tremor, even the most optimistic optimists will not dare to believe it.

"So I think that the importance of anti-missile systems is higher than the development of hypersonic missiles."

The councillor, who had just stood up, sat down satisfied, after seeing that most of the people present were lost in thought.

Even the white-haired old man on the stage had to admit that Myerson's punch hit the weakness of these people on the scene.

For these people on the scene, it is acceptable to have no position, but it is absolutely impossible to have no money.

And their money is basically invested in various industries and Wall Street.

Once the mainland is attacked, then whether it is the direct industrial loss or the economic shock caused by it, they cannot accept it.

"Everyone, don't forget our topic today, as for whether we should invest more in anti-missile systems, we can talk about it in detail later."

The white-haired old man brought back the ideas that had already deviated from most of the people at the scene when they were lost in thought.

At today's meeting, everyone was originally going to condemn Luis, who had a bad eye for selecting people and led to the first failure of an air-launched hypersonic missile.

But Louis threw the black cauldron on his good brother Jason in time to avoid a catastrophe.

Then Miles stepped up to stir up the situation, successfully making everyone forget the original point of the meeting.

At this time, although the white-haired old man pulled everyone's thinking back, everyone basically forgot about the condemnation of Louis.

"I think we should continue to invest more in hypersonic weapons in the future."

"There is a problem with the test missile that has been developed so far, but that does not mean that this principle is wrong."

"Our enemies on the other side of the ocean have already told us that this road can be taken."

"The most important thing for us now is to continue to invest in the research and development of hypersonic weapons."

The white-haired old man shouted impassionedly from the stage.

In fact, what the old man said is not wrong, although they have increased their investment in ARRW, that is, air-launched hypersonic missiles.

However, the overall investment amount is only 112 million US dollars.

This is a very low figure for high-precision weapons that cost tens of billions of dollars to develop.

Zhang Xingyang: The wind tunnel base they built in order to blow the wind for hypersonic weapons has reached nearly $900 million.

This is also under the condition that various costs, such as land, infrastructure, construction, equipment, etc., are far below the market price.

According to the commercial construction model of Eagle Sauce, the cost of building such a base will reach at least three billion US dollars.

So, if you really want to talk about it, in fact, it only took more than 100 million for Jason to come up with a missile that can be used in actual testing, which is really a miracle.

But at this time, no one will speak for him.

Of course, even if the court later sentences him, Jason can still be released on bail after paying a huge bail.

"Gentlemen, I think this is the first challenge we face as we enter the 21st century!"

"For the sake of our glory, it is necessary for us to overwhelm the hateful yellow race!"

As a white man, he made completely incorrect statements on stage.

However, the people in this room are basically white, and the few people of color also have a white heart.

So no one cared what he said.

"In order to be able to smoothly advance the development of hypersonic weapons, according to the research of our team of scientists, at least one hundred and twenty billion are needed!"

After the white-haired old man broke out this number, many small groups in the audience began to bow their heads and communicate.

This figure is actually not too large for strategic weapons.

In the case of their first fourth-generation aircraft, the F-22, research and development expenses alone were spent

And at this time, the federation is not very bad for money, and the federation that has just harvested the corpse of the woolly bear has made countless profits.

As the saying goes, petty theft, big theft.

Pure economy and trade, how can you harvest a country with many resources and industries, and make money quickly!

"Is this number too big?"

Even lawmakers with an Air Force background are a little surprised by this number.

After all, they have also made estimates, believing that if they continue to invest 2 billion, they will be able to see the initial results, and 5 billion will be able to come up with more mature products.

"Not big!"

The white-haired old man said an idea that surprised everyone a little:

"We don't just need air-launched hypersonic missiles, we need land-based and naval models!"

"We want to give full play to our sea and air superiority!"

Today, the Federation, which has the largest number of aircraft carrier battle groups in the world, does have an unparalleled sea and air superiority compared to other countries in the world.

At this time, the audience always thought that they and others were army and navy personnel who came over to go through the motions, and their eyes lit up.

I didn't expect that I was just coming over to go through the motions, and I could have an unexpected gain.

So, representatives of the Navy were the first to stand up in support of this idea:

"We agree with that!"

The army representatives also took the lead, and then stood up to make a statement.

Subsequently, the majority of the people in the venue agreed to the costly development plan.

Although it is as high as 12 billion, it is not their money that is spent, it is all taxpayers' money, and it is not spent in vain.

Even, many of them can even make a lot of money from it!

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass!!
