Chapter 608, One night's design results, and listing work

The President and the Ministry of Defense had already left the conversation, and asked Alice to serve as an adviser to make suggestions for the new naval system. Of course, such a thing cannot be formed by anyone talking about it, so on the night of the decision, she immediately started work in the hotel room and wrote long reports.

This is related to the combat system of the entire US Navy in the next 20 years after the end of the Cold War. It is the largest institutional reform since World War II. Therefore, from the White House, to Capitol Hill, to the bureaucrats of the Department of Defense, and the navy, and many generals in the air force system, there are countless joints that need to be opened. In addition to normal network operations, it must be done by relying on quality reporting documents.

As for how to write this report, Alice is very clear.

After the end of the Cold War, the former Soviet Union's threat to the US ocean-controlled sea power decreased sharply, but regional conflicts increased dramatically with Japan. The Chinese Navy is still in the construction period of the United States and still has no ability to fully compete with it. Therefore, the strategic policy of the US Navy naturally needs to gradually evolve from the Cold War ocean-based naval war to force on land to cope with the chaotic regional conflicts.

Therefore, the first thing Alice wrote was that in September 1992, the US Navy Commander, the US Navy Secretary of Operations and the US Marine Corps Commander jointly issued the strategic white paper "From Sea to Land".

The content of the white paper mainly focuses on the ability to deliver force to coastal targets, control strategic roads to the ocean along the coast and inland, and the delivery of force to the ground, including strengthening the coordinated operations of the naval fleet and the Marine Corps, establishing joint combat between maritime expeditionary forces and the army and the air force, etc., and significantly revising the policies of anti-submarine and fighting for sea control in the ocean during the Cold War era.

The second document is "Research on 21st Century Destroyer Technology", which is combined with the concept of "21st Century Surface Operations" and is paired with the concept of "frontier-from sea to land". Near-shore operations and support for ground attacks are included as one of the main tasks of the navy. It specifically requires that the fleet can support ground troops 100 nautical miles deep on the land, and propose new concepts such as "frontier existence", "frontier deployment", and "frontier operations".

After this, Alice's first job was announced to be completed, two major documents were handed over, and then she would do whatever she should do.

Thinking about it, Bush and others could not expect that they could write so many things in one night. Therefore, as long as the content of the report is accurate and particularly in line with the current era background rather than being foolishly copied in 1992, it would be impossible for the military to think without her leading the way!

After the documents are completed, the work will be submitted, which will be something that will only be done tomorrow. Alice sat in front of the computer and turned to look at the time. It is still a while before the early morning. If she stopped doing anything, her little heart that had just become turbulent would not be able to calm down.

Then design specific weapons and equipment.

Umbrella security companies have basically qualified as arms dealers, and at least they can now provide Grizzly Armored Vehicles to the Ministry of Defense, but their output is limited.

There is a saying that the arms dealer who does not cheat the Pentagon is not a good dealer.

Similarly, it is a fool who gives the real cutting-edge things to the country.

For half a year, Northrop Grumman has been integrating with Alice's corporate system. For example, its latest shipyard is a joint venture with Hutchison Whampoa, located somewhere in California. As a veteran warship manufacturer, submarine manufacturer, radar supplier and military aircraft developer, as a benefit of making small sauces, it is definitely capable of completing many of Alice's design products.

The arsenal ship in the conceivable has many shortcomings. Although it has extremely strong firepower, it is extremely dependent on the comprehensive reconnaissance system. If you want to make it perfect, Alice asked herself that her design ability was passed, but the price sold to the US military was undoubtedly unacceptable. Therefore, based on the principle of external supply of second-rate products, she thought about it and felt that it was still reliable to directly build the Zumwalter-class.

After looking at the various parts of the ship, she first drew an advanced naval gun system, namely the design drawing of the ags on the computer.

Since entering the era of aviation and missiles, the main task of the navy to send force to land has fallen on aircraft and missiles that can accurately strike enemy targets from a long distance. Traditional naval bombardment has been shelved due to the decline of combat ships. However, in several occasions, the use of expensive and relatively rare missiles cannot meet the needs or is not cost-effective.

For example, when encountering large-scale fortification facilities of enemy land forces rather than targets such as radar stations, it is often not suitable for using missiles that are known for "pointing acupoints" because their single-body value is not high enough. At this time, large-caliber naval guns that can quickly pour a large amount of ammunition into a region will be more in line with the mission characteristics and cost-effectiveness. Moreover, the shells are small in size and have higher firepower density than missiles, which can allow more firepower to be stored on the ship.

The current US military's naval guns have a problem of off-speed rail. In the just-concluded Gulf War, the nine giant cannons of the USS Missouri battleship were launched twice, and the Iraqi fortifications on the shore were declared completely destroyed. Although the effect was excellent, the warship had already reached a period of retirement, and the Navy was facing a lack of substitutes.

Alice knew that before the birth of Zumwalter's AGS gun, the Admiralty spent many days seeking alternatives. Thinking about it, from discovering problems, analyzing problems, proposing solutions, solving problems, and truly solving problems, even if the whole process takes shape at once, wouldn't those bureaucrats have to spend many years?

So, let her save this time directly.

The design drawing production begins.

AGS uses a polygonal turret with a highly stealth design. The entire turret has an empty weight of 875 tons. It uses a 62-diameter 155 gun barrel. The barrel chamber has a capacity of 295 liters. The barrel pitch range is -5~71 degrees, and the maximum firing rate is about 10~12 rounds/min, which is equivalent to the total firepower of the six Army 155 guns.

At the same time, the initial kinetic energy of the ags shells fired out of the muzzle is three times that of the US military's replacement after the Missouri giant cannon. Moreover, it has the ability to launch multiple shells at the same time, that is, through different launch parameters, 4 to 6 shells of a cannon land at a distance of 75 nautical miles away. In this way, the equipment of two Ags on a Zumwalter ship can allow 8 to 12 shells to land at the same time, and the firepower is equivalent to a US Marine Artillery Battalion composed of six-777-155 howitzers!

The entire design took an hour to complete, and the time was stuck at 23 o'clock in the evening. Alice was extremely satisfied and softened on the computer chair.

Well, the people in the Admiralty will be crazy.

But before providing this technology, Northrop Grumman's production capacity in the field of naval guns must be confirmed.

Although the basic industrial level is undoubtedly, soft power such as engineers and product production experience remains to be tested.

Oh, by the way, there is also the design of the shell library.

I was about to continue to do it, but considering that it was too late, Alice decided to take a shower and go to bed.

In this way, a late night passed quickly.

The first thing she did when she woke up the next day was that Alice took a car to the Pentagon and sent the documents she wrote overnight. The fat man was not a bite. Just asking the military to digest the contents of the documents and then let them fight with the people on Capitol Hill. It would be a while since the politicians' affairs were left to the politicians to solve. Alice walked out of the Pentagon, then rushed to the nearby Washington Airport, and took off to the sky.

But it wasn't for Los Angeles.

Across the Atlantic Ocean, the Boeing 747 heads towards London.

It's time to go public.

Since she has boarded the ship to build the new navy, there will be more places to spend money in the future. Especially for this Gulf War, the batch of arms she purchased are also expensive. Now it is time for loans to fly. If you lack money, you need to raise funds. Think about the recent development achievements of the protective umbrella, and it is expected that it will be launched.

With the idea of ​​not putting a basket of eggs, let them be listed in London.

On the plane, Alice has sent a series of documents from the Roswell Building.

Up to now, the umbrella has been acquired and 17 pharmaceutical factories have been established, including three in the UK and fourteen in other European countries. After all, the establishment of the EU is close, and the British cannot guarantee that they will make a Brexit one day in the future. It is a wise choice to put the large army in the core area.

The company's current main product in the pharmaceutical field is the weight loss drug Soma. As for the market size and profit, as long as you estimate how many obese patients in Europe are slightly divided by a assumed proportion, it will really come out.

Drugs have always been a product that the people cannot live without but are very far away from the people. How many people care about which company Suma is made? It is hard to say, because most people only recognize Suma itself. Just like many Chinese people like Jiuzhitang and Tongrentang's pharmaceutical and health products, they also know the background of these two old brands, but how many people will investigate and pay attention to their business conditions and industry scale?

This is a very interesting question.

The company's listing is a process of raising funds from the public, that is, it is taking the mass line. Like Apple, its peak market value of 800 billion is purely supported by mobile phones. Can anyone who lacks Ai Crazy will be really crazy? But it is so high. In contrast, Lockheed, even though the F-35, F-22 and various missile satellites are all top-notch and high-end products, its company's market value is only about 30 billion.

The reason for this difference is very simple - that is, people don’t want to be birds.

Alice knew that if she had let the former Hei Shui and the current Umbrella Security Company go public, it would be good if she could raise a market value of one billion US dollars. But if it was Umbrella Medical...

Well, it shouldn't be difficult to exceed 100 billion, right?

As long as you wait for the anti-cancer special drugs to come out.
