"Hehe, we also look forward to the success of the United States." Alan Wilson replied with a smile on the surface, and in his heart only hoped that the United States would do what it said. After all, this is a major event.

Then he informed the Washington government of Prime Minister Aiden's position on the big issue of Iran. As for his next job, he would attend a defense conference and see if the newly appointed permanent secretary of defense, Markins, was arrested. Widely recognized by the Ministry of Defense, he is also going to the front line.

As the days of tightening the belt after the war faded away, the regular meetings of the Ministry of Defense no longer seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder. The various military services were red-faced in the debate over the direction of military spending. The economic foundation determined the superstructure. appeared in the Ministry of Defense.

Markins just took office, and in order to gain a firm foothold, he took out a summary of the development of weapons. Of course, this is also Makins's greatness, but the man who catches the knife at the bedside is the product of the hero.

The weapons revolution is always one step ahead of the military revolution. When revolutionary weapons arrive, the military revolution will come sooner or later. The history of warfare continues to provide evidence of this: spears made of bronze or iron created phalanxes of infantry, bows and stirrups provided new tactics for cavalry, guns using black powder gave rise to a whole set of patterns of modern warfare... ...from the time the conical bullet and the rifle entered the battlefield as the vanguard of the technological age, the weapon simply had its name on the chest of war.

First, the giant steel-armored ship acted as the hegemon of the sea, opening the "Battleship Age", and then its brother "Tank" was named in the land battle, and then the aircraft dominated the sky until the atomic bomb was born, heralding the advent of the "Nuclear Age".

Today, a large number of high-tech weapons continue to emerge, making weapons the chief representative of war. When people talk about the future of war, they are used to calling it a certain weapon or a certain technology.

In the tradition of Whitehall, this article is inevitably stinky and long, but in fact the core idea is the imagination of electronic warfare, which is also beneficial to the current development of British industries, such as semiconductors. Mr. Turing, the husband of Princess Margaret, is grasping the direction of semiconductor development. You dare to say that it is not important?

Makins's self-confessions of taking office with a meaningful word, aroused a round of applause, not just empty talk but a meaningful appearance, as if he really has real talent and real learning to take office in the Ministry of Defense.

"Secretary-General, thank you very much." After the meeting, Markins, who was already the No. 2 figure in the Department of Defense, came out and thanked Alan Wilson, "You have helped me a lot."

"Everyone helps each other. My greatest hobby is to help others." Alan Wilson raised his chest like the poorest worker in East London. "This is both a development trend and a trend. The military field is special and can be used to drive a lot of The development of the industry. We must all admit that human beings often use the most advanced technology to kill each other first.”

That being said, Alan Wilson actually has reservations about many new technologies. What is high technology? What is it for? Logically, high and low are only relative concepts. However, using a concept with great variability, the name of the war in the ever-changing war, is very problematic in itself.

"I understand that it seems that Washington is actually conducting similar explorations." Markins just took office, but he also conducted some supplementary lessons, referring to the trends in Washington. At least according to public information, the two countries should Think about it.

"Don't always look at Washington." To be precise, it is similar in terms of documents. It is difficult to say what is the difference between this kind of general development direction. The Aegis system will not be approved for five years.

"Alan, you are always like this." Markins said with a smile, "In fact, we can try to communicate with the United States, which will make the future more clear."

"But it certainly won't help, and don't think highly of the military development of the United States." Alan Wilson shook his head and said, "The development of the United States is only suitable for themselves, and the United Kingdom cannot copy it."

For the reactor technology of the Intrepid nuclear submarine, the United Kingdom has spent 50 million US dollars in technology transfer fees. This is not to complain about, after all, this is a life-saving thing, and you should pay whatever you want.

But from this point of view, it should also be understood that the United States really made krypton gold to the extreme, and it was so serious in the 1950s, considering that the Pentagon has not had a glorious history of corruption cases in 50 years. At the same time, the US$800 billion military expenditure cannot even be used to hedge against the US$200 billion of a major country. The UK should not follow the example of the US with its weak foundation.

A 055-class frigate costs $900 million for a major country, $1.1 billion for a 4,000-ton Constellation-class frigate for the U.S. Navy, and $3 billion for a Burke of the same level.

If it starts an arms race with a big country, the result must be tragic. If the United Kingdom stands with the United States, it will only be one more corpse.

How to waste military spending if you communicate more, then don't communicate, it is better to learn the French route of self-reliance.

Allen Wilson doubts whether the so-called high military expenditure of the Soviet Union is true or false, and whether it was fabricated by the Americans to hedge against the waste of military expenditure of the United States itself after the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

They are all in the same national system. The military expenditure of a major country in the early 1% can be compared to the United States. There is no reason for the rumor that the Soviet Union will spend more than 15% of the expenditure in order to fight against the United States. .

After more than two months of discoloration in Indonesia, the three aircraft carrier battle groups that rushed to the Far East finally joined the sequence of the Royal Pacific Fleet. This round of changes in the layout of the Royal Navy can be considered complete.

The arrangement of the United Kingdom is still the same as before. It is indeed like the Serpent of Ever Mountain. It starts from Gibraltar and extends to Hong Kong. With the replenishment of its troops, the Royal Pacific Fleet finally conducted a military exercise against Indonesia in the South China Sea, showing the powerful strength of the Royal Navy. It is also a stall for military exercises in the UK, and the US cruise to the Tokyo Bay waters officially began.

For a time, nearly ten aircraft carrier battle groups gathered in the South China Sea, belonging to the US and British navies respectively. This sea area is unprecedentedly crowded. The two navies belong to different countries, although they are in the same waters, but their targets are completely different. One is aimed at North Vietnam and the masterminds behind it, and the other is aimed at Indonesia and its masterminds.

This made Australia extremely embarrassed, but considering that Indonesia was at hand, Australia decided to take Indonesia more seriously, and it was more important to follow the UK to ensure the right to freedom of navigation.

The British army stationed in Australia and its Vulcan strategic bombers also joined the exercise. It can be said that the UK has not conducted such a large-scale exercise for a long time.

Together with aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, Centaur helicopter carriers, cruisers, destroyers, and even battleships that occupy 80% of the one-year docking time, they were all pulled out to conduct live-fire drills in the waters between East and West.

Suddenly, the watchmen on the helicopter carrier spotted the helicopter and saw the missiles spewing fire from the tail galloping "There are missiles attacking my ship!" The watchmen shouted in panic.

The captain immediately ordered the emergency dive. The submarine just submerged, and the missile hit the water and exploded on the sea surface, but it had already flown over the submarine. He violently launched a cluster rocket into the swirling sea, and the rocket hit the submarine again and again. At the same time, he called the Centaur carrier anti-submarine helicopter to follow the bombing

A few minutes later, two anti-submarine helicopters arrived. The radar of the anti-submarine helicopter was installed under the belly. Through underwater scanning, the target helicopter was found again. The target helicopter immediately dropped depth charges, and a dull explosion sounded underwater for a while. , the hull was sunk by the bombing, the submarines flooded in all directions surfaced, and the white flag of surrender protruded from the window on the boat that ran aground in the shallow water near the island

Missile boats and submarines are the conventional routines used by the Soviets to counterattack in the Anglo-American understanding~lightnovelpub.net~ This exercise is a hypothetical threat to appear.

"The execution of this exercise is really surprising." Although Marshal Mountbatten did not come to the front line in person, he still came out with an optimistic judgment from the existing news.

"Of course, the British army has far fewer problems than the US military, at least the Navy." Alan Wilson opened his mouth and said, "Especially when defending Australia."

It is not a bad thing to ensure the control of the aristocratic class over the army, but how to make the noble officers willing to serve the military is a matter of concern. First of all, there is a need for a place of interest for the children of the nobles in the army to be willing to pay for it. This has to say that Ms. Pamela Mountbatten, who was the first to set out in the sea, is the daughter of Marshal Mountbatten.

Then Marshal Mountbatten gave priority to digging the first pot of gold in Australia in the process of entering the team and promoting the family children who have no worries.

Under such circumstances, if the noble officers who have industry in Australia encounter a country that threatens Australia, can they do their best to do it wholeheartedly?

Even for the safety of their own industry, they can't grind foreign workers like clocking in to work, and sweating is still necessary.

The Royal Navy should indeed practice drills, which Marshal Mountbatten agrees. The weapons are updated very quickly after the war. If they can find a good fit, that is to find the most appropriate tactics, new and old weapons of different generations. Using it, it can not only eliminate the fragility of the singleness of the weapon, but also may become a "multiplier" of the weapon's effectiveness. Fighting with any weapon is not passive inaction.

"The marshal is right." Alan Wilson agreed. On the contrary, there is a big problem with what kind of weapons to fight. The problems of the US military's experts in public security warfare and the tragedy of the Littoral Combat Ship are profound lessons.
