For that kind of money they'll get a mole into the company and get what they want one way or another.
How about us offering him $100 million to stay in Australia?

Freepers must have stock in that company. For a system that has yet to be proven, I don't understand why it keep getting posted here.
Would you be interested in buying stock in my flying car company? I'm looking for investers.
Dear Lord - imagine how many rounds per minute the entire PLC could fire with one of those!
*gets calculator*
Its not all that complicated of an concept behind it, youd think that a country the size of China could figure it out on its own.
Just before the Aussie declined, he asked, How would you pay me the hundred million? In cash?
You bet, the Chinese official replied. Velly fast cash! Once we build gun we gonna shoot ten million dimes a minute at you for a hundred minutes. We get to test gun and pay you same time, Round-Eye!
And a single bullet in the back of the head 5 minutes after he delivers.
For which his family will be sent the bill, just before being sent to torture camps as subjects of "medical experimentation"--and having their organs harvested while they are still breathing.
NO cheers, unfortunately.
This story, and it's nice of them to actually use the word "alleged" here since smells so much like B.S. Certainly the PRC military would be interested in gleaning any military technology it can from Australia, but Metal Storm is for all intents and purposes absolutely useless. It's nothing more than a gimmick and has no battlefield applicapibility that other weapons cannot replicate more efficiently and cheaply. It isn't even that complicated, just use a bunch of barrels and have an electronic firing mechanism that activates them all at the same time.
Atleast they are willing to pay for the technology and not trying to steal it like they usually do.
Hmmm... they're doing these things a little more openly now.
