[Honestly, this is not the case. It is not an exaggeration to say that we can see the future if we need the US military every time we need an answer from Jaewoo.

After a brief moment of silence, he let out a small laugh.

With his eyes still shining, he began to mutter while comparing the existing MRAP with Polar Bear.

[According to our analysis of South African objects, the biggest drawback of MRAP is that it lacks mobility. Besides, the suspension is too weak.]

[Yes, but Polar Bear is different. Mobility must have already been proven by this rally, and as you can see, the defense power is also incomparable with MRAPs.]

He focused on his report without even giving me a glance.

It's like a will to find even a single flaw.

It seems like he needs some time, so he turns around and looks at me as I try to get the coffee down again.

[How many prototype vehicles are there?]

[Right now, there are only 5 units, but it is possible to produce at least 20 units within a month.]

Michael's eyes lit up again at those words.

Soon he rolled his little eyes to and fro, stroking his chin and whispering.

[Actually, once this has appeared, our MRAP development plan is highly likely to be halted.]

[··········.]

[No matter how fast it is, it will take at least six years from development to mass production, because the military cannot afford to wait until then. The problem is that this is also only a prototype vehicle, and it will take more time for mass production. If an order is made, how long do you think it will take to deliver?]

I immediately headed to my desk.

Soon he pulled out several pictures from the drawer and handed them to him.

[As you can see, the construction of the production line is almost complete. Thanks to that, if demand arises, it is possible to deliver close to 40,000 vehicles per year.]

[··········.]

Michael looked at the photo and me with a look of disbelief.

Judging from the shape of her lips, it feels like she has the ability to foretell the future or anything else.

Tea smiling and trying to lift a cup of coffee. He suddenly stood up from his seat and urged me.

[let's go. I'll have to see the factory right away.]

[··········.]

“America is amazing.”

A month later, at Seongnam Airport, work was underway to load Polar Bears on C-17s sent by the US military.

A monster transport aircraft with a range of 7600 km and a maximum load capacity of 76 tons.

When I see that, I think that the time has come when the need for a large transport plane also comes to our minds.

“About 3pm, another C-17 will arrive. Even so, since the number is close to 20, I think it will be a bit of a struggle.”

Secretary Kim looked overwhelmed by the outward appearance of the transport plane that swallowed the vehicle.

When I respond with a light smile, the elasticity continues again.

“By the way, America is amazing. How much does it cost to just transport the replacement by ship?”

“Because transportation is not the only purpose.”

She immediately replies and she stares at me.

She just pointed her hand at one of the cars she was parked and she was explaining again.

“The US military is more active overseas than any other country. As a result, it is often necessary to transport troops and supplies by air. Therefore, it can be seen that this is not just for the purpose of transport, but rather a measure to identify problems that may occur in the process of transport.”

"Ah······."

Secretary Kim shook her head as if she understood.

The transport plane, which was ready for departure, started moving to the runway, and I looked at the clock for a moment at that point.

“What time did you notify the Joint Missile Development Center with Russia that you would arrive?”

“Do you think you can leave now?”

Without hesitation, I got into the car.

As soon as the vehicle took off, I could see the C-17 soaring into the sky outside the window.

-Some vehicles will be sent directly to Afghanistan. After all, it is the most appropriate place for operational verification.

As the car drove out onto the road, I suddenly remembered what Michael had said before leaving Korea.

He intends to verify the operation of all but two of the vehicles in the field.

At the time, I didn't give much importance to it, but looking back, I think that the US military is amazing.

The idea of ​​conducting operational verification directly on the battlefield.

No, nominally the war is over, so it may not be appropriate to call it a battlefield.

In any case, the fact that I can come up with such an idea is only envy to me.

[Long time no see, Chairman Jin.]

At the entrance of the Joint Missile Development Center when we arrived, Natasha was waiting for us.

She had been seeing her face for a long time, so when she reached out her hand to her delight, she smiled and hugged her.

[Is there any good news?]

According to the news I heard yesterday, the development of long-range anti-aircraft missiles has come to an end.

Of course, after that, Russia became Russia. And we will make improvements to suit our tastes, but it is true that development is complete once.

Maybe that's the reason why she came to her management this time.

To return researchers who have completed their mission.

[The Russian development team will return home with me soon. After that, I plan to come back.]

Expectations were right.

The question is, why do you have to endure such an inconvenience?

Unable to bear her doubts and pour out her questions, she whispers as she looks around her for a moment.

[It is difficult if even one of the researchers leaks to another place.]

[Is there such a case?]

[Without it, there is no reason for me to come to Korea.]

She smiled back.

What was she thinking, for a moment she thought her eyes were out of focus, and then continued the words that stuck to me again.

[By the way, have you heard the news?]

[What news?]

She stared at me as I asked.

The expression on his face as if it was the right thing to say.

No, it would be more appropriate for her to have an expression of surprise that she did not understand the intention of her own question.

[················· Lately, I know that high-ranking generals from the US Department of Defense have visited USFK and the Jaewoo group. Haven't you heard anything from them?]

[··········.]

Not knowing what to say, she frowned.

Then, holding her chin and my hand, she immediately led me somewhere, and the bodyguards, startled at the sight, stopped in front of her like deukdal.

"Ah! That’s it.”

I turned on the lights and waved at the bodyguards who were staring at Natasha.

As if it was a mistake, she immediately let go of my hand and uttered 'I'm sorry' in slurred Korean. She hurried back up again and whispered in her ear.

[There is information that North Korea is preparing for a nuclear test.]

At those words, her head went blank for a moment.

According to history, North Korea conducted its first nuclear test in 2006.

However, if that information is true, it would be advanced by as much as four years. I wonder how that is possible.

money and technology.

In the current situation in North Korea, both of them are insufficient.

[Are you sure?]

[of course. Because of that, Russia's foreign intelligence agency has been turned upside down. But did you really not hear anything? You know that the Jaewoo group still has a strong relationship with the US Department of Defense, right?]

It was not surprising that she was aware of the visits of U.S. Pentagon officers to South Korea.

For the Russian Foreign Intelligence Agency, it would not have been a big deal.

But what's embarrassing now is that Michael lied to me.

Well, I understand how burdensome it must have been for me as a civilian to disclose such a sensitive fact, but I can't help thinking that it would have been better to just skip it.

“But I’m not the kind of person who will dig until the end without notice.”

[Yeah?]

Natasha tilted her head at my self-talk.

By the way, what was this woman thinking that she was giving me such important information?

Suddenly curious about it, looking at it for a while, she blushes in disbelief.

[Hmmm, Sir Putin told Chairman Jin to inform.]

[··········.]

The moment I heard that, I felt a bit strange.

Should I consider this a favor?

Or is it meant to be a burden?

[Wait.]

At the end of my thoughts, something came to my mind, so I called the head of the National Intelligence Service.

Are you having an emergency meeting?

He seldom thinks of answering the phone.

[You don't know when the experiment will be done?]

He turned again and asked Natasha, who was standing there.

As if she had expected the question to come, she answered without hesitation.

She said [according to the progress read from the satellites, they expect it to be around the middle of next year.]

[Hmm······.]

I was relieved to know that it wasn't right now.

Then, suddenly, the thought came back to the fact that it might not be a situation to be relieved.

Wouldn't it be strange if the United States beat North Korea out of nowhere?

Follow me!

Then, I got a phone call from the head of the National Intelligence Service.

It felt like I was late to check my missed call and call.

As soon as I pressed the call button, I could hear his calm voice.

“Have you heard of North Korea?”

-·········.

He was silent for a moment.

As if I was surprised to know that.

ah soon! He let out a short sigh, and with another long sigh, he put Putin in his mouth.

-The boss brown bear looks like he wants to score points from Chairman Jin. Anyway, if there is news that North Korea is preparing for a nuclear test, we already know.

“Then, was that the reason why the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff visited US forces in Korea?”

- That's right, in case of an emergency, it looks like they're bringing in additional decorations to the USFK from the mainland. It doesn't look like they're going to bomb right away, though, so there's nothing to worry about.

“You don’t want to bomb?”

The results are a bit surprising.(Read more @ hotmtlnovel.xyz)

For the United States, which is extremely sensitive to the North Korean nuclear issue, in fact, now would have been the right time to resolve it. Why would you just skip it?

As if thinking the same thing, the head of the National Intelligence Service looked a bit bewildered.

- Actually, I was surprised by that too. If it were the current US administration's inclination, it would not be strange to say that it would remove the buds, but rather it is showing an attitude of stepping back. Well, maybe the increasingly complicated situation in the Middle East caught my heart.

When I heard that, I suddenly thought that it might be the case.

Contrary to history, preparations for a nuclear test were made four years earlier.

However, if you touch North Korea right now, an all-out war could happen, and now the US is unable to get out of the Middle East due to Iraq, which is getting worse.

In other words, the burden of having to wage war in two regions at the same time would be burdened.

I mean, if the U.S. is capable of fighting a war in two regions, how can it really be that easy?

In the end, it seems that the decision has been made to keep an eye on the North Korean issue for the time being.

“Even so, are you just watching the preparations for a nuclear test? America?”

- We're embarrassed right now. It is a normal picture for us to discourage the United States, who is about to uproot it at any moment, but rather, they pay their respects to us now. Damn it, we can't move on our own because we don't even have an exhibition OPCON. Anyway, in that case, I have nothing to say other than that I think we should keep an eye on the trend.

The head of the National Intelligence Service hurriedly hung up the phone to see if he was busy with something else.

Still unable to take my phone from my ear, I stood blankly for a long time.

‘What the hell is going on?’

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't understand it.

Korea, which would rather take the damage and insist on elimination. And the United States resists it.

Isn't this the complete opposite of history?

'Maybe it would be better to remove it now...'

Historically, that might be the best.

If left alone, they will eventually become a troublemaker by securing not only the complete success of nuclear development, but also the means of long-range delivery.

Of course, I'm concerned about the damage that will happen in the process, but that's what it used to be.

Almost all the damage that can be predicted is the ruthless shelling by the North's multiple rocket launchers, because we already have an excellent defense measure called HVP.

Even if a missile arrives, it will be able to block the already deployed Chungung to some extent, so it is certain that now is the right time to effectively eliminate North Korea's nuclear weapons.

'Maybe the change in our government's attitude is due to the confidence that comes from it... It would be impossible if the United States did not cooperate anyway. After all, is this part going to go down in history?’

Whoops!

Sadly, it felt like that.

So, there are only two actions we can take in the future.

Even if not immediately, before North Korea succeeds in fully possessing nuclear weapons, we must have the ability to dismantle it on our own.

Otherwise... this time, we also have nuclear weapons.

'Have nuclear weapons...'

A laugh spit out at those words that suddenly came to mind.

I wonder if that would be realistically possible.

'Hmm.'

Can you make nuclear weapons too?-94
