Reborn arms giant

Chapter 779 Ukrainian Missile Expert

Baidoa Star Group Aviation Industrial Park, which is the largest and most important military industrial base in Somalia. After more than a year of construction, the manufacturers stationed and opened in the aviation industrial park have surpassed the Badada Town Industrial Park, becoming the first and only high-tech zone in Somalia.

A country with a low economic aggregate and low reserves of talents and scientific research technology is very difficult to develop high and new technologies. However, with Li Mo's strong investment, the aviation industrial park uses all means to invest funds, attract talents, purchase advanced equipment and instruments, and even seek advanced technology through improper means. Under the premise, the development here is changing rapidly, and the speed is simply amazing.

The aviation industrial park is all Li Mo's efforts and a miracle. Her existence has been noticed by the world. Every day, people and organizations from all over the world come to Baidoa to visit or discuss investment with the industrial park management committee.

The rapid development of the aviation industrial park is very beneficial to Li Mo's plan. The presence of a large number of domestic and foreign manufacturers not only fills the gaps in many aspects and fields of the industrial park, but also reduces the pressure on Li Mo. Modern military industry does not need to be as small as a screw and needs to be produced by itself. This is a waste, but also a practice that consumes energy, money and material resources. For high-tech integrated weapons, Star Group only needs to master the core technology, and does not need to waste time and energy on those that seem to be very simple with modern technology. On the thing.

Another benefit brought by this development is that the increase of the reputation of the industrial park has attracted some talents to take the initiative, which has greatly improved the scientific research strength of the industrial park. The overcoming of many technical difficulties is related to many of such strong technical talents in basic technology.

The day before the National Day, Li Mo was going to sit in the capital Mogadishu to prepare for tomorrow's military parade, but after receiving a phone call from Colonel Anli, he couldn't wait to come to the industrial park.

"Boss, you're finally here." Seeing Li Mo, An Li said in a resentful voice. She took a few steps forward and shook Li Mo's arm regardless of the outsiders here.

At the beginning, it was Li Mo's trust in Li Mo who asked Anli to manage the most important airline of Star Group, and Lieutenant Colonel Anli's wisdom and ability can quickly be qualified for this job after a short period of study. But Li Mo didn't think for a moment that a woman who fell in love needed not only to work for men, but also the love and care of men. Like Li Mo, she only came once a month for half a month. How could Anli, who used to be with Li Mo every day, stand it?

When the expert and Abik who came to greet him saw this scene, they immediately turned their heads and pretended not to see it. Li Mo smiled and whispered, "There's someone. I'll talk about you later."

"Professor Abick, is what you said on the phone before true?" Li Mo temporarily comforted the woman and asked quickly. Today, Abick is not only the head of the scientific research department of Star Group, but also an honorary professor at the University of Mogadishu. Li Mo's name for him has also changed.

"Boss, come and have a look with me." Abick also said with joy on his face.

Li Mo came to the underground missile assembly workshop with a suspicious look. The first thing he saw was the Cangqiong 1 ballistic missile placed horizontally on the bracket. However, at this time, the engine part of the missile was not installed, which looked better than what he had seen before. The dome missile should be shorter.

Li Mo's eyes soon noticed that several staff in blue uniforms, under the guidance of several expert-like people, were driving a cart to push a cylindrical object close to the missile.

Compared with the ** rocket engine he has seen before, this engine is a little slender, and there are not so many complex pipes distributed on the outside of the engine.

"Did you come up with the solid rocket motive?" Li Mo suddenly understood and asked in surprise. Last time, the Power Institute, the Missile Research Center and several departments took out the single-base propellant of the solid rocket engine used for small missiles, so that Star Group could produce all kinds of convenient and light anti-tank missiles and anti-aircraft missiles. No longer as before, due to the difficulties of engine technology, they had to go directly from The international arms black market buys complete missiles.

However, last time, Abick also told himself that the solid rocket engine used in the Sky 1 missile needs a more stable, larger weight ratio of dual-base or even hybrid propellant. In the short term, due to the lack of technology and the difficulty of importing some materials, there is no engine that can be used for large and medium-sized missiles. It's made by law, but how long has it been now, and these people have really come out?

Abick and the expert smiled at the same time and nodded, "The boss can see that this is the solid rocket engine we produced ourselves. This is an experimental model. We plan to install the engine on the missile for live-fire launch tests."

Li Mo approached the engine, and he still asked for a little smell. He couldn't help touching his nose and looking at Abick. The guy was laughing strangely there. He must have known this and didn't tell himself. Li Mo stared at them fiercely, stepped back a few steps and asked, "What's going on?"

"Boss, this smell is the cause of solid propellants, and we can't completely eliminate this smell for the time being. This engine uses polysulfur rubber composite propellant, which was first developed by the United States in the late 1940s and is also the first composite propellant in the world. At present, many missiles are still using this propellant, such as China's Dongfeng 21 medium-range ballistic missile, but they used it at that time. Secondary propulsion, we are just single-stage propulsion, because we have not mastered the connection and separation technology of secondary propulsion for the time being.

Li Mo listened attentively. He didn't care about what was calculated by the two people at this time. His mind was full of information about the successful development of a solid rocket engine.

The successful development of this medium-energy propellant not only represents the change of the missile engine, but also the change of the combat effectiveness of the missile force.

** There is a big difference between rocket engines and solid rocket engines, especially when applied to missiles. Not to mention the rest, the preparation time for a missile launch alone is very different. ** Because of its strong corrosion and oxidation surnames, the propellant must be kept separately. Before the missile is launched, the fuel can be filled into the missile fuel tank, while the solid propellant is not needed. It can directly fill the fuel and load the missile. When needed, in addition to other preparations for the missile, it only needs to be ignited and launched. It omits the fuel filling time and reduces the pressure of logistics maintenance, which has too many military benefits.

In addition, the successful development of the solid rocket engine represents the missile research center and the power to develop missiles with a longer range, which is of great significance and difficult to express.

However, Li Mo is still curious that apick and others can be successfully developed in such a short time. You know, he has not provided any special assistance here recently.

The expert stepped forward and explained with a smile, "Boss, if you can succeed this time, you can thank the mouse boy. He has a good relationship with the Ukrainian arms dealer Nazyrov. With the help of the relationship behind Nazyrov, he dug several missile engineers from the machine factory in southern Ukraine, which helped us solve the problem. The problem of solid propellant has been solved. These people deserve to have come out of the internationally famous missile factory. Many of the problems are very difficult for us, and they have done them casually. But..." Just when Li Mo was very happy to hear it, the expert stopped talking again.

"But what?" Li Mo asked.

The expert said with a wry smile, "The skills and experience of these four engineers are incomparable to us. They were also the backbone of the machine factory in southern Ukraine, and the treatment there is also good. To be able to come to us, in addition to the forces behind Nazyrov's intervention, the important thing is that these people have different about money. Ordinary desire, after helping us solve the problem of solid propellant this time, we will not work hard, because the promise made to them at the beginning was not fulfilled.

Li Mo will understand that these Ukrainian missile experts have technical experience, but they are not those who are really committed to technical research. They also have a very high demand for life and material aspects. Otherwise, they would not have come to Somalia. It must be what the mouse promised at the beginning.

"What benefits do rats promise them?" Li Mo asked doubtfully that he really didn't know about this matter, but Li Mo was not angry. After all, his attention to talents was a desperate attitude. As long as it was not too out of the ordinary, there was no reason for Li Mo not to refuse. Moreover, from the words of the experts, Li Mo also heard that these Ukrainian missile experts need money, and in Li Mo's view, the problems that can be solved with money are not problems, not to mention how much money can a few missile experts need?

"I have worked for five years with an annual salary of 1 million US dollars. I have to pay half for the first time, and the rest will be paid when they leave." The expert explained with his fingers.

" Hiss..." Even if Li Mo was prepared, he was still shocked by this number, but when he thought about it, he felt that this number was not too scary. However, in the Star Group, no one can get an annual salary of one million dollars at present. For example, experts, they only get a salary of two or three hundred thousand dollars a year, while Li Mo himself is I don't have a dime, but I have to find a way to paste money in it.

Four missile experts, each with an annual salary of one million, have to pay half for the first time after working for five years, which is 2.5 million US dollars per person. It is easy to pay 10 million US dollars at a time. This number must be reported to Li Mo for approval. The finance of Xingchen Group is currently under the management of Liu Qingyue, but she is flat. It is not very manageable. Basically, the subsidiaries are responsible for themselves. As long as a certain amount of funds are called, it will be Liu Qingyue's turn to deal with it. But in general, most of the people below are reported to Li Mo himself.

"Is their technology really good?" Li Mo looked at Abick and asked, if these people were really talented, he would have spent 10 million dollars gritting his teeth, but if the other party had no real talent, Li Mo would definitely not agree.
