Rebirth of the Military Industrial Overlord

Luria opened her mouth for a long time, but found that she couldn't say anything.

Because what Eric said was right.

"Strange Snake 3" is indeed the most advanced short-range air-to-air ammunition in Isaac’s current state of the art. It was also tested in actual combat in the "Bekaa Valley" battle last year and achieved an excellent record of hitting 50 rounds. Compared with the American AIM-9L, its performance is still quite inferior.

Most of the performance parameters of these two missiles, such as range, launch off-axis angle, and usable overload, are very close, but they have the same weight. The weight of the "Strange Snake 3" is 120 kg, while the AIM-9L is only 90 kg. Almost a third lighter!

For a weapon that needs to be used in the air, weight is obviously an important parameter, and this small parameter fully demonstrates the United States in electronics, chemicals, machinery, materials, aerodynamics, etc. Disregard the leading advantage of Bluestar.

And because AIM-9L is equipped in many countries and regions, the production and sales are very large, so the price can be very cheap, and the price of each is about 100,000 US dollars, but Isaac’s own "Strange Snake 3" ? But because there are basically no other customers to purchase except for its own air force, the output is scarce, and the country's purchase unit price has to be increased to 120,000 US dollars. If you want to discuss the cost performance, it really can't fight the Americans.

Even the reason that he finally thought of was strangled by Tan Zhenhua and couldn't say it.

They even pointed out the F-14 of Ibos, and they obviously knew what they wanted to say.

During the Pahlavi dynasty, Ipersia was another important strategic fulcrum of the United States in the Middle East. The relationship between the two countries was so good that it was simply mixing oil with honey. Therefore, together with the F-14 "Panda" fighter and AIM-54 "phoenix" Big killers such as long-range air-to-air missiles have been sold, but unfortunately, after a sudden change, Yibos changed the day and even occupied the U.S. embassy and detained all diplomats as hostages. In a flash, it became The life and death enemy of the United States.

Oh yes, by the way, it is precisely because of this political change that Professor Mr Goodenough, a legendary scientist who was worried by Xiao Tan Tan Zheng who wanted him to go home early and enjoy his old age, gave up half of the solar energy project. He ran away from Ibos and joined Oxford University in Britain, thus starting a legend in the electrochemical industry.

However, in this time and space, whether the old man can rewrite this legend is still a matter of uncertainty, because in the distant China, a certain Wang surnamed half-old man whose eyes were full of blood was stimulated by the checkbook waved by Xiao Tan Tan. Leading a team, after completing all the improvement projects of nickel-cadmium batteries, they are conducting experiments around the clock in an attempt to conquer the peak of lithium-ion secondary batteries...

Speaking of the political situation in Ibos, in the face of this situation, the first response of the United States was to implement a blockade policy against it, of course the arms trade was the first.

Regardless of fighter planes or air-to-air missiles, a lot of daily maintenance is necessary to maintain combat power, and maintenance is inseparable from the consumption of fragile parts-even for a car, you have to replace the lubricating oil every few thousand kilometers. What about three filters, let alone flying in the sky?

However, four years have passed since the United States began to implement the arms embargo on Iperos in 1979. The F-14 fighter plane of Iperos can still be launched, and the supporting "phoenix" long-range air-to-air missile can still become a fierce battle with it. What does the nightmare of the sounding Ikra Air Force show?

It shows that Yibos must have a stable and reliable source of accessories!

Even a country like Ipos, which is strictly embargoed by the entire Western world at the national level, can handle things. Luria believes that it can definitely be done with China’s national size, and can do better, you know, Although China's industrial level is not high, it has a complete range of categories. Even in the face of the world's blockade, it has still created a "two bombs and one star" country that has secured the United Nations five permanent seats!

This Eric has rejected all the reasons he can think of and blocked all the roads?

Then it's a woolen thread... wrong!

If Eric had really crossed out "Strange Snake 3" from the alternatives and included "Rattlesnake" in the procurement catalog, what did he mean by the hint and provocation?

Although it has only been in contact for two days, the well-informed Luria has heard of the legendary deeds of Eric from many "old friends"-a short history that sounds like a fantasy. Friendship with Rothschild and Soros and the process of obtaining this friendship, the reason for approaching Blumenthal and getting his help, the price paid for it, and the personal relationship between himself and him in the two-day negotiation process Feelings-all of this is telling Luria, the Eric in front of him must not be considered in the normal sense of 18-year-olds!

Therefore, every sentence and every word he said needs to be carefully considered.

So, in those words that Eric just said, what are the important points?

By the way, come to think of it, he just said "Strange Snake 3 was not originally on my shortlist"!

The key word in this sentence should be "original", right!

No matter what time this "yuan" refers to, it must be a past tense, which means that after a certain point in time, the content after the "yuan" will be negated, that is, "Strange Snake 3" Was included in his shortlist, stepped back and said, at least "Strange Snake 3" can be included in his shortlist!

So, what exactly is that point in time?

Is it when Eric arrived in Isaac? Is it when you fully appreciate the technical strength of IAI after visiting the company? After successfully completing the EL/M-2021B procurement negotiation framework today? Or when I mentioned the topic of melee combat missiles to him just now?

No, all these seemingly critical time points have no good reason to cause Eric's decision to change.

Luria couldn't help being lost in thought, and when he inadvertently raised his eyes to look at Tan Zhenhua, he found that the young man was looking at him with a smile on his face.

That smile was full of unusual meaning.

An enlightenment suddenly appeared in his heart, which cut through all his confusion like lightning.

Yes, there is another possibility besides those just now.

This time point that caused Eric's decision to change has not yet come, but it may come!

It can also be stated in other words that when a certain condition is confirmed to be executable by oneself, this time node will come automatically!

And this condition... Combined with yesterday’s negotiation process, Luria easily came to the conclusion: If Issa could agree not only to sell the "Strange Snake 3" missile, but also willing to license the missile technology and production. If it is sold, then this business will be an inevitable success!

After figuring out this official trick, Luria immediately rekindled confidence in winning the business.

In the final analysis, the short-range infrared combat air-to-air missile of the "Strange Snake 3" is still the same as the EL/M-2021B radar that has been discussed. It is a defense-based weapon system. This type of weapon system will not affect the United States. How much bad influence the global military supremacy has produced is a small thing that may make the Americans turn a blind eye to its technological output.

After the conclusion of yesterday’s negotiations, we have communicated with the United States through various channels, and we are striving to turn these intentional cooperation into tangible contracts and real money. Judging from the current results, The resistance is not big.

Luria knows that this is related to Eric's large political donation through Blumenthal, and it is also related to the status of China in the current international environment in the hegemony between the United States and Russia. .

"I know what you want." He raised his glass, touched Tan Zhenhua lightly, and then solemnly said: "Eric, we are striving for what you want. At least for us, those All are good business, I think you should understand what I mean."

Tan Zhenhua shook the wine glass slightly, watching the red liquid in the glass refract a few colorful lights under the light, and smiled and replied, "Yes, it's a good business for you!"
