Depleted uranium armor-piercing shells are definitely not needed in China.

It is only necessary to develop the technology and do some experiments, and the technical results are ultimately only used as technical reserves, not others.

Such a weapon with irreversible damage to the environment must not be used on one's own territory.

The Iraqis will not think about this, the US imperialism is obviously not satisfied with them, on their territory, they do not use it, the Americans will also use it, it is better to use this thing to find trouble with the US imperialists.

"I'll communicate with them, and as long as there are any, let's develop the corresponding armor-piercing bullets and give them a try. Zheng Yucheng nodded, and Wang Guilin didn't say anything more.

Qin Jinyuan wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.

He is a person from 541, not a member of 404, once he offends Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin, there will be nothing to do with him here.

"On the Iranian and Iraqi side, how do we deal with it?" Wang Guilin asked Zheng Yucheng.

The Iranians have now seen the power of our tank guns, and they have given them a copy of the experimental data, and we don't care if they place an order or not, or how many orders they place. Xie Kai said.

The Iraqis will definitely place an order, this tank gun is more powerful than they expected.

The only difference is that Iraqis are worried about the performance of the final product.

The fact that a tank gun can reach this level does not mean that the tank's final attack power has reached such a level.

"I can only wait. Zheng Yucheng also knew that it was useless for them to be anxious about this matter.

In another vehicle, the Iraqis were also discussing the results of the tank gun tests they had seen.

"General, I think that blindly placing an order without seeing the prototype and not understanding the overall performance is very disadvantageous to us. Otherwise, the tanks you will get by then will be too different from what you expected, and it will have serious consequences. "Harry Mossan didn't talk much along the way.

Ibrahim and Isaad have been discussing how thick the T72's tank gun is and how strong its armor defense is, and compared the attack and defense power of the M60 and other tanks equipped by the Iranians, and finally felt that the 404's 359 tank was the most suitable for them at present.

Of course, the price of the other party does not exceed their budget.

China has cheap weapons and equipment, everyone knows this, and third-generation tanks cannot be too cheap anywhere. As long as it does not exceed the price of the T72 tank too much, it is acceptable.

President Saddam Hussein has always been generous with the weapons and equipment purchased by the Tikrit Division.

"Colonel, do you have an idea?" Issad looked at Harry Mosan, his face calm.

Ibrahim didn't know what Harry Moisan wanted to say, out of trust in his subordinates, since he spoke, he naturally had some ideas, and he didn't open his mouth immediately.

Harry Mosan, who was in the co-pilot seat, glanced at the driver next to him, turned his head and said in Arabic: "General, this test by the Chinese is likely to be carefully prepared for us." ”

"Their tank gun armor-piercing ability is something we have seen with our own eyes. For other Chinese shells, the performance is very good......" When Issad heard this, the anger that was already in his heart also picked up.

The possibility that the Chinese may cheat on their orders in this kind of thing cannot be ruled out at all.

Even the Soviets often did this.

In order to sell equipment, or for the beautiful knives in their hands, they are often shown the best, and in the end, the money is paid, and when they get it, they find that what they get is far from what they imagined.

"That's true, but it's just a tank gun, not a tank gun on a prototype, and it's not a tank gun after it's been finalized!" Harry Mossan looked at the driver out of the corner of his eye from time to time.

The driver was provided by the 404 base, whether they knew Arabic or not, they did not know at all.

Harry Moissan's hope is that the driver understands their words so that he can fit his plan.

But the driver stared intently at the road ahead, without any distraction.

"They themselves said that the recoil of the 125-mm tank gun was too small. With such an armor-piercing thickness, the chamber pressure cannot be low. How many rounds of service life of a tank gun, how long does the ring gear of a tank turret last under pressure, automatic reloading mechanism, defense capabilities, etc., we only see separate theoretical models, but not integrated into tanks See samples...... "Harry Moissan" considered a lot.

Both Ibrahim and Isaac nodded their heads.

"We need finished products! tanks that can be delivered in large quantities right now. Issad nodded in agreement with the colonel's words, "The Tikrit division is facing an expansion, and if more advanced tanks cannot be found, only the T72 tanks of the Soviets can be used!"

When he said this, he also looked at the driver.

The driver's expression did not change, and his body sitting in front of him only shook with the bumps of the car.

"We need to keep an eye on those damn Persians in action!" said Ibrahim, and Harry Mossan did not speak again, and Issad also stopped talking.

In another car, the Iranians who came from behind also looked complicated, discussing the 404 test gun.

For them, the test test was a test to test the deviation between the theoretical data they learned and the actual performance.

"Damn the Arabs are also here, should we place an order? With China's production capacity, such an advanced tank can't produce much in a year, and this is not their Type 69 main battle tank, which can produce thousands of units a year!" The look of indignation on Alpha's face could show how unhappy he was with the Iraqis who had just arrived.

"But their prototype hasn't come out yet, and no one knows what the final performance will be. Ihor's face was also unsightly.

They delayed placing the order, they were waiting for the 404 tank prototype.

Seeing a prototype of a tank, even if it has not yet been finalized, you can get a general idea of what the technical level of the 359 tank is.

The Guards needed advanced tanks.

It is better to have a tank more advanced than the T72 that the Soviets could offer.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed at the 404 base all the time to see the faces of Zheng Yucheng and the others.

"The Arabs cooperated with them earlier than us, and whether or not they can get the first opportunity in cooperation is related to whether we can get this tank first, or whether the damned Arabs can get it first. Hazari looked solemn.

"We have what the Chinese want to get. Alpha said suddenly.

Hazari and Ihor looked at him in bewilderment.

"The F-14 with the accompanying missiles! This is what the Chinese desperately want to get." Alpha startled the other two.

"This can't be! Our F-14s are already getting fewer and smaller, and it is impossible to supply them to the Chinese!" Hazari jumped up and hit his head heavily on the roof of the car.

F-14 Tomcat fighter, this is Iran's artifact that can contain the Iraqis, and everyone knows that the Chinese want to obtain the above technology.

"Many of the parts of the damaged fighters that have been dismantled have been dismantled and used, and some of the remaining parts may be used to exchange with the Chinese what we need." 'Ihor didn't react as violently as Hazari.

The F-14s are flying less and less, and Iran is now worried about this.

It is impossible for the Americans to supply them with spare parts anymore, and Iran does not have good relations with the entire Western world.

"If China can copy the F-14 fighter jets that we provide, it will be a good thing for us. Alpha nodded.

Hazari stopped talking.

He's a mullah, and he can't call the shots about this.

Alpha held a much higher position in Khomeini's heart than he did, and Ihor was the commander of one of the most elite divisions of the new guard.

The two did not talk about anything else.

The driver was provided by the base side, and not only was responsible for driving them, which could not have been unknown to the Iranians who had been in the base for so long.

The journey was not long, and in less than half an hour, the convoy was back at the base.

Both Iraqis and Iranians want to talk to the head of the base as soon as possible.

Zheng Yucheng and others excused themselves too tired and made both sides wait.

"The Iraqis don't have a clear attitude, they just say they can't see the samples?" Zheng Yucheng asked the person in front of him.

If the Iraqis were here, they would have found that this was the driver who drove them.

"They said they needed to keep an eye on the Iranians, and if we couldn't provide the tanks they needed, we had to use Soviet T72 tanks...... "The driver nodded and said.

Wang Guilin asked another person, the driver who was driving for the Iranians, "What is the attitude of the Iranians?"

"They discussed, exchanging some of the technical equipment of the F-14 fighter jets with us for some conditions...... another driver repeated the Iranians' discussion in detail.

"It can't be a temptation, right?" Xie Kai's eyes lit up.

If the Iranians are willing to take out the F-14, it will be a big boost to the entire Chinese aircraft industry.

Anyway, the Iranians are no longer the same, they have used the F-14 for so many years.

A lot of experience can be learned from the imitation of the F-14 fighter.

Far more useful than the wreckage of the warplanes that the Iraqis supplied to them.

"It's possible that they said it on purpose. "The driver also did not dare to guarantee that the Iranians should know his identity.

"In that case, we can talk to the Iranians first. Zheng Yucheng said, looking at Xie Kai.

Xie Kai looked at him with a helpless expression, "Who to talk to, that's a matter of the management committee......

The imitation of the F-14 fighter is very difficult for the current domestic aviation industry, and there are reasons why he boycotted the heavy fighter project before.

However, as long as many of the technologies on the F-14 can be digested and absorbed, the gap between domestic and international countries can be shortened a lot.

"You have no opinion?" Wang Guilin asked Xie Kai.

Once we talk about the Tomcat fighter, in the end, we will definitely have to pay 404 to do it, and other domestic units have their own projects, so they can't come up with much money to invest in it.

"If it is not fully imitated, I have no opinion, some of the above technologies, once digested, will be a very huge promotion for the overall level of fighter manufacturing in our country. Xie Kai once again took a stand.

He needs the avionics system, fire control system and other technologies on the F-14, the F-14 in the hands of the Iranians, the performance is not bad, it is the real third-generation aircraft technology.

When used on the J-10, this will make the technical performance of the J-10 that has just come out much better than the technology that should have been.

The higher the starting point, the farther the development will naturally be.

Can't lose at the starting line, right?

"When exactly will you see the sample of the 359 tank?How long will it take to finalize?How much production will it provide each month after finalization?"

"General, your country doesn't have an urgent need, these don't seem to be important, right?" Xie Kai asked with a smile.

"It's not that we don't have a need, it's that you haven't been able to provide us with a product that reassures us. Ihor was not polite at all, "We're waiting here, we want to know better." ”

"The performance of the tank will definitely not be worse than what we have introduced to you!" Zheng Yucheng said casually. "After all, this is a project we are working with Pakistan, and there are already a lot of potential customers who have expressed their interest. ”

"What we can give you is not only dollars, but also other things. Alpha was immediately upset when he saw Zheng Yucheng using the Iraqis to suppress them.

"What you can provide, other customers can also provide. There are two samples of advanced third-generation fighters, which are already in our hands, and these are given to us by our customers for free. Zheng Yucheng bragged and didn't make a draft, and he didn't frown, "What can you provide?"

Without waiting for the Iranians to make a condition, he was the first to speak.

The Iranians were a little dumbfounded for a while, they didn't expect that the other party would be so shameless.

I deliberately told the driver that the 404 people would beg them to talk, but it turned out to be like this.

"We can provide the world's most advanced third-generation heavy fighter!" F-14 Tomcat fighter, in addition to us, the Americans have ......" Alpha's confidence is somewhat insufficient.

Iraq shot down two F-14s, and if they gave the wreckage of these two warplanes to China, what they thought was a bargaining chip would no longer be a bargaining chip.

"This kind of fighter has been eliminated, in the seventies, it was an advanced fighter, and now, even the US Navy no longer purchases new F-14s, but replaces the F-1......4s in the Navy with F-18/A, which is easier to maintain," Xie Kai said, shaking his head.

He knew in his heart that the reason why the F-14 was replaced by the F-18/A was not because the maintenance was complicated and the cost was too high, but because Grumman was pitted.

It is very normal for the US military-industrial system to be private, not enough relationships, not enough background, and to be replaced.

In the end, it turned out that the performance of the F-18/A fighter is far worse than that of the F-14, and the maintenance and use cost is not lower than that of the F-14, or even higher.

Even in the 21st century, this fighter is still not lagging behind, and the Iranians have only a small number of them, and only twenty or thirty of them can fly, and the US imperialists still dare not do it......

But this thing must not be said to the Iranians?

"Even the fighters of the seventies, the technology of the sixties, is far more advanced than the vast majority of fighters in the world, and the performance of this kind of fighter is more advanced, and there are not a few models that can be found at present!" Ihor frowned and looked at Xie Kai, this kid said as if it made sense.
