Chapter 270: A Massive Outbreak! The Prelude to Global Military Procurement!

They finally understood why Syria had the confidence to stand up to the Ugly Nation.

If weapons were all this cheap, the Syrian side could even arm the entire population.

Everyone was an enemy of the Ugly Army.

When the intelligence department reported this news to the Ugly Army military,

the Ugly Army military had strange looks in their eyes.

In fact, if the Ugly Army military were willing to purchase weapons from the DWS platform,

their war costs would be reduced to an incredible level.

But the problem was, could they do that?

Of course not!

Because, not to mention that they had long ago characterized the DWS platform as a terrorist platform,

if they purchased from it, wouldn't that be aiding the enemy?

In addition, even if they wanted to purchase regardless of this,

would the military-industrial complex agree?

In the Ugly Nation, the military-industrial complex includes Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, General Dynamics, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, etc.

Back then, during the Afghanistan War alone,

these arms dealers in the Ugly Nation earned 2.02 trillion USD from the government, equivalent to about 12.85 trillion RMB.

And the power of these companies combined was such that even the White House had to listen to their opinions.

With these military-industrial groups in existence,

even if all the weapons on the DWS platform were at cabbage prices,

they would never enter the supply chain system of the Ugly Nation's military.

Even the Pentagon had to be obedient, because even if the military wanted to purchase,

the Ugly Nation's Congress would not pass it.

And without a fiscal budget, the military could not purchase weapons.

This is just like how there had never been equipment produced by the Dragon Nation in the Ugly Nation's military supply chain.

Because the Ugly Nation's military had clear regulations prohibiting its military equipment from having Dragon Nation products.

Even if Dragon Nation products were very cheap and the quality was excellent,

rules were rules.

Back then, an Ugly Nation contractor was sent to prison after it was discovered that they had changed the labels on military boots produced by the Dragon Nation to enter the Ugly Nation's equipment sequence.

And the reason this matter was exposed was very ridiculous: it was because the quality of the military boots produced by the Dragon Nation was too good.

Ugly Nation soldiers wore them for a long time without damage, which had never happened before.

As a result, they reported the matter, and the incident was exposed.

Therefore, even Lin Yi had never thought that the DWS platform could enter the Ugly Nation's military supply chain.

However, this was even better.

At least, Syria and the Houthi armed forces didn't have to worry about the Ugly Nation using the same cheap weapons at the same price as them.

However, this price was too attractive to other countries.

Soon, after the Bear Nation, the Dragon Nation's procurement amount also exceeded 100 million USD, becoming the sixth Diamond VIP of the DWS platform.

The other five were Iran, Syria, the Bear Nation, the Houthi armed forces, and Hamas.

Seeing that the Spring Festival was about to arrive,

the Dragon Nation's military held an emergency meeting because of this matter.

Because compared to producing various weapons themselves, the Dragon Nation's military found that DWS platform weapons were much cheaper than their own.

The General Armaments Department, the Logistics Department, the Operations Department, and the leaders of the major military regions, after intense discussion,

had to admit that under the condition of a fixed military budget,

purchasing equipment from the DWS platform was really very cost-effective.

Of course, the Dragon Nation also understood that once they purchased in large quantities, it would also have an impact on their own military industry.

However, even so,

the frugal Dragon Nation, after discussion,

expected to use 10% of next year's military budget to purchase from the DWS platform.

Don't underestimate this 10%.

The military budget decided by the Dragon Nation for 2016 was already over 900 billion RMB.

Even 10% was 90 billion, equivalent to 15 billion USD.

And this 15 billion USD would be used to purchase low-cost cutting-edge weapons from the DWS platform.

Although many of these could also be manufactured by the Dragon Nation,

the cost was far higher than that of the DWS platform.

Since that was the case, why did the Dragon Nation still need to produce these things themselves?

Besides, 10% of the military budget would not have a major impact on the Dragon Nation's military-industrial enterprises,

Furthermore, a 10% military budget will not have too great an impact on Dragon Nation's military-industrial enterprises.
