00467 Endless Raids

“Emergency call to the Council! I'm in a hurry! I don't know when I'll be back! ”

“Sir! Rest assured! Chairman Tarius has already called for an emergency council! ”

“Oh, thank God! ”

Tae-jun's sudden appearance turned the US Congress upside down, not only in the White House.

Since one day, Janice has emerged as one of the largest customers of the U.S. military industry. It's ironic that it's the largest customer of the U.S. defense industry, not the country, but the largest economy-led offensive force.

Janice doesn't buy shit like guns and rockets. Expensive and profitable, he is a valued customer who chooses only high-end products. Even when relations with the ROK turned to Cold War mode, Janis continued to buy things. A VVIP customer that the Pentagon must never miss.

“So, what did he want this time? ”

“It's called Lockheed Martin's Global Eagle. ”

“Oh, the next monster, the Airborne Surveillance Control? That's something Janice would covet. ”

A gas that is one step ahead of Hawkeye. Like Zenith, it's an odd model to not covet, or to not covet, the answer to an attack that seeks the best from everything.

“I heard Lockheed Martin got pushed by Boeing and worked hard, and finally he made it. ”

Vichy was truly impressed. The more American companies like this one by one, the stronger the country will become.

With Janice adopting Boeing's Hawkeye as the first generation aerial surveillance controller, Lockheed Martin had to walk the rough road through the thorny fields. Perhaps people tend to follow the path of the pioneer.

Hawkeye, the world's most powerful aerial surveillance controller.

There's only one sentence, but can't you see it? You, too, seem to like Hawkeye more than I do, so I used to be overwhelmed by the Boeing Factory's overheating crisis.

It's not just about expensive aerial control monitors like Hawkeye. In South America, the Middle East, Europe, and even the American attackers, there must be a reason why Janice is using Boeing Agent. 'I thought.

You also said that Janice is a trustworthy Boeing agent, and she took all the small parts she made from Boeing. Boeing was therefore able to outrun Lockheed Martin and jump to the top of the international market as well as the United States.

Anyway, Lockheed Martin, who was competing in the same market, had to go through a lot of bleeding, but I didn't really care that they were both there. Let's say Lockheed Martin did something propaganda this time.

“I've been piloting the Global Eagle for six years. ”

“Six? What's the turnover? ”

“Nine billion dollars. ”

Nine billion dollars. The United States of America, the economy, cannot ignore.

I felt a strange feeling at the moment when Vessi was happy.

“As president of the United States of America, I have a tremendous interest to consider in executing a $9 billion budget, but the head of the Janice Tactics team doesn't need to. ”

I have a sense of camaraderie, or inferiority. Even if he tries to enforce the same $9 billion, Tae Joon can make a decision in his own right without anyone noticing. Of course, it is possible because Keeping Woong trusted him with practical judgment, but it still feels strange.

In order to export Global Eagle overseas, it is still necessary to obtain congressional approval. Of course, blindfolded, it's just a procedure for a reason. Let's say Janice says she can't buy you a tech spill. The senator will be cut off immediately.

If the skill is good, it is convenient in many ways. The CIA has been able to maintain ties with South Korea, or Janis, through a number of troubled rounds, but the United States has been able to maintain ties.

“Anyway, make sure that Team Leader Jang Tae-jun doesn't feel uncomfortable shopping. ”

I know it's a culinary event, but there's also a congressional summoning to approve the Global Eagle sale. It was when Vissi was relieved.

“Mr. President!”

“What? What's going on? ”

“Janice, the head of Tactics, says the purpose of the shelter is not to buy a global eagle! ”

“Excuse me?”

Vissi became darker before his eyes. Did Tae-jun feel nauseous? To mock the United States, not buy a global eagle?

“The purchase of XS-3 was originally meant to be! ”

“ ……? ”

Vichy became dazed for a moment. I wanted to know what XS-3 was. Even if it is the president, it is often impossible to keep up with practical accidents in detail because he is the president. He didn't even remember what XS-3 meant.

Surprisingly, the chief secretary quickly explained.

“A high-performance low-orbital satellite used to specify MD system coordinates. The model delivered by Lockheed Martin is a groundbreaking contribution to building a new MD system……. ”

“Got it! What's the seller's price? ”

“If you can't afford a satellite, it's four billion dollars. ”

A young secretary quickly replied. However, Vichy was not enough to meet the answer he wanted. That's why the Chief of Staff went out.

“In addition to satellite launch, infrastructure costs for satellite management, and comprehensive everything for an efficient interworking system, it costs at least $12 billion more. This is the estimated cost given the current situation in Korea, or the Janice attack force. ”

Satellite prices are low. No, let's say not for long.

Apart from the price of satellites, there are many things that are needed in order to ‘properly’ operate the satellite according to its various facilities and operating personnel, regardless of anything. Modern science and engineering are inherently intertwined.

Taking all that into account, apart from the price of the satellite, we need more than $12 billion per satellite. You want me to tell you what's even worse? This is not the end.

“If the Janis Assault Force is buying XS-3 for a single Raid, considering the stage II or extra four, that's enough. But……. ”

“But?”

“If you want to keep the entire planet in an active area, the cost of purchasing it increases astronomically. ”

It's been a long time since I've broken through astronomical numbers. There, however, is said to be an astronomical increase. Vichy didn't even want to imagine that number. Doesn't this seem like the realm of divine inevitability?

“So? What's Janice's purpose? Is it a limited MD system deployment required for a single Raid? Or is it building an MD system for the entire planet? ”

The secretary had nothing to say.

That's it, right? No one can answer without getting inside Jang Tae-jun's head.

* * *

Seeing the appearance of the satellite on the screen, Zhang Tai-jun shivered lightly. This is the reality of the United States' MD system and the main character, XS-3.

‘No matter what happens, it's always an accident. ’

Satellites, satellite projectiles, and operating costs have all been investigated. There's no way you could have planned a manual shelter without considering that.

Suddenly, I exceeded the national defense budget. But what does it matter? Whatever the amount has already been approved by the boss.

If it is to increase the power of tactical support teams, it can cost you anything.

It was promised by Susu Woong a long time ago. Maybe he forgot about it now.

However, Tae Joon was confident. You're a reasonable man. Even now. It is a ZFX business to enhance the tactical support team, but it is moving considering the strength of the attack force for ten minutes.

‘It's an FX business every few years, but it's not bad. ’

The Janis assault squad consists of six reserves. Jang Tae-jun controls the tactical command of all his reserves. Approximately KRW 1 trillion is expected for each rating. Even if you raise it once a week, it is already KRW 6 trillion for one month.

Now, don't I get the feeling? A profit of 6 trillion won per month. How much can an organization that makes this kind of profit be allowed to invest in infrastructure for future revenues? Introducing at least a few XS-3 satellites is nothing.

The Chairman also approved and exercised reasonable discretion as an authority to determine the enforcement price. There's no rhyme with getting lobbies or anything else. So there was nothing on my conscience.

“Very well.”

Finally, Tae Joon's OK fell. Over the course of hours, Lockheed Martin briefed on the advantages of XS-3 and was captivated by the feeling of flying.

Hooray! I can use this to drive Boeing away! Hooray! Hooray!

“Then how many years...? ”

The chairman was filled with expectations and asked. The management expects Janice's six reserves to purchase as many as they need to build a fully operational MD system at all times.

Two are required to build one system, at least 12 if 6. In addition to satellite costs, additional incidental costs are astronomical, so Lockheed Martin will be able to boost sales for decades at a time.

“I want the entire planet on surveillance. ”

“…… Yes? ”

“I want the whole planet on Janice's radar. ”

He was greatly shocked. No, this is totally the answer to beating your head off, isn't it?

"Is that really necessary? ’

It was the idea of an honest chairman. Even though Janice is the best offensive force in the world, do we need to put the entire planet on surveillance with only six reserves?

‘Let's think about it in five years. ’

However, Jang Tae-jun thought differently. At present, Janice is composed of only six preliminaries. However, Janice has immeasurable scalability. Soon we'll be able to march on the Red Mob and prepare for the Black Mob Raid against the entire planet.

The creation of an XS-3 satellite surveillance system that can cover the entire planet is a staring stone. True storage, or practical people, should be able to see the future accurately in the years ahead of the organization. So there is no waste in running munitions.

The deal was so big that the day contract was definitely impossible. That evening, Tae Joon was invited by Chairman Lockheed Martin to visit his estate. And I met a strange person.

“Child Green.”

“…… I'm Jang Tae-jun. ”

I met EIS, the vice president of an unknown organization, at a home party hosted by Chairman Lockheed Martin. I liked the cool image, but I couldn't shake the familiar feeling I received from the watch on his left wrist. That watch, I think I saw it somewhere before.

But that wasn't the end of the meeting.

Isn't that Dr. Choi Yun? ”

“Ah? What brings you here, Chief Jang? ”

“Dr. Choi, what are you doing here? Nice to meet you, by the way. What's your relationship with him? ”

The three men crossed pathetic gazes.
