Become a super arms dealer with the workshop system

Chapter 173 Reaction of the Parties
In the end, Admiral Saeed decided to report to the President, requesting an initial project grant of 200 million US dollars to give the BI Group a project feasibility assessment of the ground-to-ground long-range cruise missile.

If the final evaluation report can pass the review, then continue to allocate funds for specific project research and development work.

This can be regarded as the project process that Han Feng was very familiar with before his rebirth, and being able to give 200 million yuan in one lump sum in the pre-research stage, to be honest, is enough to reflect the sincerity of the Algerian military in this regard.

You must know that this kind of budget for feasibility evaluation, even if the evaluation result is "no" and the project is terminated, the money cannot be returned. In other words, it is part of the sunk cost anyway.

In fact, Han Feng's idea of ​​preparation is very simple. It is the way that the Iranians figured out a few years later-the Shahed 136 suicide drone.

90% of the technical difficulty of cruise missiles is concentrated on terrain matching tracking guidance and high-performance small jet engines.

As the saying goes, there is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up, since the research and development of these two technologies is very difficult, then I just don’t use this technology and it’s over.

No one stipulates that cruise missiles must use jet power!

Isn't it good to use a piston engine?

With the idea of ​​designing a drone, a double-blade wooden or polymer propeller is plugged behind the body, driven by a gasoline engine for model aircraft, the wing area is increased, and it is changed into a double delta wing and two tank.

Cancel the complex two-way data transmission system, change the nose part into a 50 kg warhead and a satellite navigation system similar to the one in the AGSGC kit, plus a radio altimeter to avoid low-altitude flight hit the ground.

If you launch it, you can consider booster rockets or directly eject it with a rubber band. Anyway, you don’t expect it to come back, so you don’t need to consider the issue of the landing gear.

Live!

After system analysis, it was shown that only 5000 workshop points are needed to perfect the entire design, which shows that the technical difficulty is obviously much lower than that of Soleimani's idea of ​​using rockets to launch the FAB100 with a guidance kit.

But this matter is not in a hurry.

As a second party, Han Feng wants to make money.

It is impossible for him to directly produce the product without even receiving the pre-research funds. Then it will be difficult to ask the Algerian government for money in the name of project research and development in the future.

So you have to squeeze the toothpaste first.

At the same time, the results of the public test that took place in the afternoon have been gradually spread. Algeria, as a country with a low sense of existence, does not have much media attention to this matter, but there are still a few countries that are keenly aware of it. Realizing this is not easy.

Jerusalem, the Prime Minister's Office of the Kingdom of David.

Defense Minister Moses Ya'alon knocked on the door of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office.

"Mr. President, the Moroccan side sent us a piece of information about Algeria's armament situation." Yaalon said, putting the document in front of Netanyahu: "Accurately speaking, this can only be regarded as a piece of news. , because it was made public by the Algerian side, and it was very high-profile."

"Oh?"

Netanyahu stroked his gray hair, then opened the folder and read it with interest.

Although Algeria and the Kingdom of David have not really entered into a state of hostility at the moment, almost everyone knows that the relationship between the former and the Kingdom of Persia is quite close. In addition, although Algeria does not directly guard the Strait of Gibraltar, its position is sufficient. Monitor and even threaten all ships entering and leaving the Mediterranean Sea.

Therefore, the Kingdom of David has always paid attention to Algeria, and is trying to win over its sworn enemy Morocco secretly.

"Can you use a gliding guided bomb launched by a civilian aircraft..." Netanyahu's face was calm, and he couldn't see what was going on in his heart.

"According to the descriptions of people who have seen the test on site, the range of this kit should be similar to that of JDAM-ER, and the maneuverability is very good, and it also has certain route planning capabilities. During the test, a compact 180° turn was made." Yaa Longfang Minister concluded succinctly.

"What do you think about this stuff?" Netanyahu put the document aside and looked up at his defense minister.

"From a purely military point of view, this thing itself is not a big threat to us." Yaalon replied: "The range of 70-80 kilometers is actually not enough to launch outside the defense zone, and based on our experience of using JDAM, I think To achieve this range, the aircraft needs to be launched at an altitude of about 1.2 meters, so it is easy for us to detect it in advance, and even if it is launched by luck, it is not difficult to intercept it."

"Indeed." Netanyahu nodded: "If your Excellency is really concerned about this, we can consider adding several sets of GPS jamming equipment in next year's military budget."

"Mr. President, what I want to say is another matter." Yaalon frowned and looked at the Prime Minister in front of him. He was a little unclear whether the other party hadn't thought of it or was unwilling to think in another direction: "These technical You know the problem, but the parliament does not know it, we can exaggerate its threat, and then let the parliament increase the funding for Iron Dome and the new Arrow 3 anti-missile system next year."

After hearing this sentence, Netanyahu took a deep breath and leaned back on his office chair to meditate for a moment.

"What's the current progress of Arrow 3?" A few minutes later, the prime minister asked again.

"The research and development work has come to an end. If there are no accidents, we will be able to carry out target testing by the end of this year, but the funding for the current project is a bit tight." Ya'alon stared at Netanyahu's expression, hoping to see What, but the latter is such a sophisticated politician, he has long been able to show his emotions and anger.

"However, Your Excellency, the Arrow-3 system should be designed to intercept ballistic missiles with a range of 1000-1500 kilometers. Do you know how many such weapons our opponents have?" Said to do so.

After the disastrous defeat of the Second Lebanon War in 2006, Netanyahu has realized that due to the ebb and flow of military strength in the past few decades, the Dawei National Defense Forces want to compete with previous Middle East wars. It is almost impossible to defeat the enemy in a large-scale battle, so although he still maintains a tough image on the surface, he actually began to suppress the young radicals in the government departments.

"Your Excellency, it is precisely because the enemy has tens of thousands of such weapons that we need more missile defense systems to protect the country's absolute security." Ya'alon said emotionally to Netanyahu.

"But just purchasing the lowest-end and cheap Iron Dome system has already put us under a lot of financial pressure. Be realistic, Moses, the council can't let you purchase tens of thousands of Arrow-3 interceptor bombs, it will cost tens of billions of dollars Funding, and subsequent endless maintenance costs."

On the other side, Ismail Demir did not attend the dinner, but flew back to Ankara at the fastest speed after the public test. At this time, he was also meeting his leader.

Since Demir personally participated in the test, he can directly show a video to Erdogan.

"This is the thing that the Algerians have newly tested?" Erdogan held his mobile phone and had watched the video of the bomb from throwing to hitting several times.

"Yes, Your Excellency, I happened to be visiting Algiers a few days ago, so I was invited to watch the test process."

"They invited you, a foreigner, to watch a weapon that is still in the testing process?" Erdogan is quite vigilant about this kind of thing. Turkey and Algeria are not enemies but they are not allies. In An's view, Turkey should be an independent regional power and should not be anyone's ally.

"Uh...they invited people from many countries, not just me." Demir quickly explained.

"Okay." Erdogan's expression relaxed: "So can our country's military industry produce something similar?"

In the past 13 years, Turkey's per capita income has tripled under his leadership and entered a period of unprecedented high-speed development. Under such circumstances, Erdogan naturally began to seek to develop Turkey's industries, especially the military industry , hoping to shape the image of a great country.

"It's not difficult, of course, and we can actually produce better ones." DeMille pushed up his glasses. He knew what his president liked to hear.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Erdogan showed a satisfied smile, so Demir hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "But what I want to say is not this, but their way of publicity, which is very... impressive, I I want our propaganda department to learn from it and release as many videos of tests, training, exercises, and even actual combat in the eastern region as possible, and even live broadcast. You know that many countries actually lack the concept of war and weapons. As long as we can first occupy the propaganda High ground, we can make our equipment play an impact."

Erdogan's fingers tapped rhythmically on the desk a few times: "What do you need?"

"I need to give the propaganda department more authority, and it's best to assign a special unit to be responsible for the propaganda work. You know that this kind of thing will affect the combat effectiveness to some extent, but you can't let all the Turkish troops participate."

At this moment Erdogan suddenly raised his hand and interrupted Demir.

"I need to think about this matter, and I will give you an answer in a few days."

Demir was stunned for a moment, he knew very well that Erdogan had been persuaded by himself, but the posture just now was obviously an order to expel the guest.

"Then, Your Excellency, I'm going back to work first, and there is still a meeting of the aerospace industry company tomorrow."

Erdogan didn't reply, just waved his hand to signal that he could leave.
