Chapter 619: The destruction of gravity weapons was made public, sparking public opinion!(1/2)
Gravity weapons are really a bit scary.
After Ameriken analyzed the results, they were very panicked for a while. The decision-makers were worried that the other party would use this weapon to launch an unequal war.
Even if it is not a direct war, as long as it is used a little bit, the results will be very terrible.
No matter which battlefield in the world, gravity weapons are too terrifying, and even just one turn can directly determine the outcome.
Some people even began to worry about their personal safety.
In the past, they have never had similar worries because they have mastered the most high-end military power and their local missile defense system is relatively complete.
Why should we build a complete missile defense system?
The purpose of establishing this system is to ensure that the homeland will not be attacked, and it is also the bottom line for their security.
When a war is about to break out, and you know before the war that it will definitely fail, and the other side still has irresistible weapons, what will happen then?
Many soldiers would even raise their hands to surrender in advance!
This is determined by the law. In a confrontation that is destined to fail, if ensuring personal safety is the first priority, you can directly give up resistance and surrender.
As for the so-called spirit of sacrifice...
I'm sorry, but Amrican soldiers don't have the spirit of sacrifice.
They will not sacrifice themselves for the sake of victory in the war. When their life safety is threatened, they can surrender directly and reveal all the information they know.
This is a right protected by law.
When faced with brand-new gravity weapons, the missile defense system is meaningless at all, and the strengths of both sides are not at the same level at all.
If a war breaks out, there is not even a slight possibility of victory.
This is fatal.
They also knew before that military technology had fallen behind.
For example, airships and flying saucers pose a huge threat.
However, the attack method of the air-ship and flying saucer is still understandable. It uses conventional missile attacks. If it conducts a covering missile attack on the air-ship and flying saucer, it is theoretically possible to defeat it.
Gravity weapons are not in the same dimension at all.
The light pressure engine can fly at a high altitude of 80 kilometers away, and the attack method of gravity weapons is completely undefendable.
In other words, the light pressure engine can strike any area in the world. The opponent has no way to defend, dodge, or counterattack...
This weapon feels like the atomic bomb during World War II, and the shock brought by its power is completely unreasonable.
While some countries are still using tanks and rifles to attack their opponents, a missile has already destroyed a city?
How can we fight this? There is definitely no way to fight back.
Just raise your hands and surrender!
Those with decision-making ability also discussed, "It seems that in the future, we should be more tolerant on some matters, and we should retreat when it is time to retreat..."
The others were silent after hearing this.
If it were more than ten years ago, they would have dismissed it, but now they can only remain silent.
In many matters, the strong is king, and it makes sense to have a big fist.
More than ten years ago, they were the party with the bigger fists, but now the situation has completely changed. Even if you don't want to accept it, it is best to remain silent.
Of course, we still have to stay tough for the time being.
"They used gravity weapons to destroy a satellite. This behavior must be strongly condemned!"
"We must conduct a public protest, hold a targeted press conference, and strongly protest against this behavior!"
"We can't let them destroy satellites wantonly..."
For Amrikan, keeping the gravitational weapons secret makes no sense. It is not a technology they have mastered anyway. Going public to warn other countries can also put a certain amount of pressure on them.
Public opinion must be fought for.
Of course, it was definitely not them who came forward in the first place. GISAT-5A is a satellite of a certain three countries. It would be a bit weird for them to come forward directly.
American immediately sent Pierre Duncan to communicate and negotiate with a certain three countries, explaining the results of the experimental testing and explaining that GISAT-5A was destroyed by a gravitational weapon.
After Pierre Duncan explained the content, Lasley, the representative of a certain three countries, was very shocked.
After careful analysis, they also concluded that it might be attacked by some unknown space weapon. They did not expect it to be a gravity weapon.
Is this a bit too high-end?
Lasley couldn't believe it at all and thought Pierre Duncan was joking, but after careful communication and discussion, he felt that the possibility was very high.
Then, I became worried.
After Lasley reported the news, the reaction from the upper management was a little different from what Amrican had imagined.
The upper management did express concern, but the concern was only an initial emotion and only lasted for a short period of time. Later, Lasley and Pierre Duncan were asked to discuss compensation.
In fact, Amrican thought wrong.
The ideas of certain three countries are completely different from theirs.
The three countries do not have the competitiveness to compete for military and space dominance. In military technology and high-end technology fields, not to mention compared with the flower growers, there is also a huge gap with Amerikan and O continent.
Militarily speaking, even without gravity weapons, the flower growers still own airships and flying saucers, several large aircraft carriers, a batch of fifth-generation fighters, the world's top missile technology... and so on.
They are not opponents in the first place, and it does not make much difference whether the other party has gravity weapons or not.
Anyway, I can’t catch up!
The key now is that GISAT-5A, one of their most advanced satellites, was destroyed.
The damage caused by the destruction of GISAT-5A was huge. They all believed that the satellite would not be damaged, so American's promise did not include damage to the satellite.
They felt they had suffered a great loss.
Lasley said firmly to Pierre Duncan, "You must be responsible for the damaged satellite!"
They even shouted out a price tag, "minimum compensation of three billion US dollars!"
This offer shocked Pierre Duncan. They did not want to be responsible for the damaged satellite, so they naturally rejected it directly, and they rejected it very forcefully.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lasley said directly, "If you don't compensate, we will make the matter public."
"It was you who made us..."
"Also promised..."
Pierre Duncan was shocked by such an expression. He had no direct decision-making power. After reporting the news, the superiors could not think of any way to deal with it.
If this kind of thing is made public, let alone occupying the high ground of public opinion, it will definitely lose face.
The losses suffered by certain three countries were indeed great.
The left solar panel of GISAT-5A was broken and can no longer be used. At the same time, the broken solar panel caused damage to the electronic system and insufficient energy supply.
GISAT-5A must continue to use backup energy to make up for energy shortages.
However, backup energy is limited and will be exhausted after a few months of continuous use.
In these few months, the satellite orbit cannot be continued to be adjusted, otherwise energy consumption will be faster.
In other words, GISAT-5A has been paralyzed. Even if it continues to be used, it will only last for half a year at most, and then it will slowly fall.
GISAT-5A is a satellite launched last year and is expected to be in service for more than ten years.
Now it is equivalent to being directly paralyzed and can no longer be used, which makes their satellite system defective. The loss is money, time, military capabilities, etc.
Both parties held close consultations.
In the end, Pierre Duncan compromised on behalf of Amrican. After some discussion, they decided to lease a similar optical satellite for $1.
At the same time, we will also fulfill our promised support and cooperation.
A certain three countries obtained satisfactory results and released the investigation report on the damage to GISAT-5A. However, they did not want to stand out, so they simply said, "We are sure that GISAT-5A was probably hit by a gravitational weapon."
destroy."
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Public opinion has no idea that the GISAT-5A satellite was damaged, or even this satellite.
