"The Chinese side has proposed a new program for the construction of troops. I think it has a great effect on the construction of our Revolutionary @Life Guard...... "After Khomeini proposed to buy 1,000 sets of avant-garde missiles, and even more to buy self-propelled guns, Ihor felt that it was time to propose a Chinese solution.

"Is this a plan they designed specifically for us?" Samnila thought it was a conspiracy by the Chinese.

According to China's army building, it is obvious that it is necessary to purchase China's weapons and equipment.

From small arms inside rifles to tanks, heavy artillery, etc., that costs money.

"No, this is the Chinese army itself exploring, and we just happened to meet ......," Hazari told the original story of the exercise they had seen and the introduction of Xie Kai and others to them.

Samnyla's brows furrowed together, always feeling that something was wrong.

"The situation of the Chinese army is very similar to that of our guards. Their ideological education is excellent, and their military quality and training intensity are far beyond our imagination...... "Ihor said.

The situation is what they saw with their own eyes.

Khomeini was tempted.

The Pahlavina, which was built with the bastards of the American imperialists, was not reliable for him. The army of reliable mullahs is not afraid of death, but they do not have strong military qualities.

The Chinese gave them a choice.

"How have you talked so far? What is the Chinese offer? Can you see the performance of their weapons and equipment?" Samnila asked.

The money needed is too much for them to support.

Khomeini wants not just a small elite force, but a navy, land and air force.

The current contacts and negotiations with the Soviet Union are all aimed at this.

China is only an alternate negotiator.

As envisaged, the old army used Western weapons and equipment, and the new guards used advanced Soviet equipment. This will not affect the army too much.

"At the moment they do not have a complete offer, neither for tanks nor self-propelled guns......"

"What is the purpose of the Chinese?" Samnira does not believe that China has no purpose.

There is no benefit, are they really offering to help build the army and give solutions for the sake of friendship between the two countries?

"Sell weapons and equipment. The training of the troops, according to them, belongs to the incidental service. Of course, the purchase of weapons and equipment needs to reach a certain amount...... "Ihor said with some embarrassment.

Such a plan can only be proposed by the Chinese.

They sell the entire army building plan and train the military personnel who need to be equipped with the operational skills and operational command ability of the army building plan......

Khomeini and others were moved, but they never made a decision.

However, the purchase of anti-aircraft missiles from China has become a foregone conclusion.

The members of the Soviet arms sales team, who had been staying in Tehran, were well informed, and they got the news that night, and the purchase of hundreds of millions of anti-aircraft missiles had little impact on the entire project they were talking about, and it was definitely not possible to let the Chinese grab food from their mouths.

"We must tell them that the Chinese missiles are copied from ours!" Katavsky, in his early fifties, roared in the Soviet delegation. "China's Hongying-5 individual air defense missile is a copy of our SA-7 air defense missile, in addition to this, they have anything else?"

The Soviets knew best about China's military-industrial capabilities.

After all, China was poor and white, and without the help of the Soviet Union, China would not have been able to build a basic industrialization.

"They have developed a new anti-aircraft missile. A young man in his forties said.

"Maxim, with China's technological reserves, may have more advanced anti-aircraft missiles than ours?" Katawski questioned.

"What we need to do now is to stop the Iranians from buying Chinese anti-aircraft missiles! Ivanov, who had been smoking in silence, looked at his arguing men.

These guys don't know if it's because they've drunk too much, or if they haven't drunk for too long, and they can't think clearly.

"We need to see Ayatollah Khomeini. The overall purchase agreement cannot be reached in a short time, and we can first negotiate anti-aircraft missiles...... "Ivanov said.

Khomeini and others were very happy that the Soviets took the initiative to ask for a meeting.

The Soviets were strong, and the whole world knew about it.

"I heard that your country is preparing to purchase China's individual anti-aircraft missiles?" Katawski asked Samnyla without hesitation after greeting him, "We can provide anti-aircraft missiles with better performance." ”

"Samnira, is there such a thing?" Khomeini asked his defense minister.

The Soviets were too impudent.

"The SA-7 anti-aircraft missile has a lot of real combat results, is easy to operate and cheap. Or the better SA-14, SA-16...... "Maxim is relatively young in the negotiating team.

Samnera couldn't help but despise these guys, and at first they only talked about SA-7 missiles, and the price of each one was $120,000.

"Barbarian Arabs, when we were equipped with your SA-7 anti-aircraft missiles before, it didn't affect our air force!" Samnila said calmly, "Your SA-7 can only attack fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters from the tail, and the SA-14 and SA-16 have significant defense against air targets, and the anti-jamming performance is too poor......"

For these anti-aircraft missiles of the Soviets, the Iranian Minister of Defense naturally could not fail to understand.

In view of the fact that Iranian fighters are used less and less if they are not shot down, it is impossible to replenish enough fighters in a short period of time, and the purchase of Soviet fighters also requires long-term training of pilots, and the only thing that can make up ideas in the short term is naturally anti-aircraft missiles.

The Soviets had nothing to say.

It's impossible for them to hide it.

"We have the latest anti-aircraft missiles, which can effectively eliminate natural environmental interference and infrared decoy interference...... "Selling old-fashioned anti-aircraft missiles cannot be recognized by customers, so naturally, we can only come up with new ones."

Samnila looked at the Soviets and couldn't help but sneer.

I used to think that only they could provide it, and good things would not be sold at all.

Now, their third-generation anti-aircraft missiles are actually going to be sold.

"The Chinese's anti-aircraft missile technology itself is copied from ours, and until now, they do not have many models to choose from, let alone many actual combat cases. "The Soviets did not look down on China's production capacity and technological research and development capabilities at all.

"Could it be that our fighters were shot down by the anti-aircraft missiles you sold to the Arabs many years ago?" Khomeini asked the Soviets, "you said at the beginning that the Chinese' anti-aircraft missiles are inferior to their burning sticks, at least they don't cost money to burn the sticks!"

Chinese anti-aircraft missiles are inferior to burning sticks, this is what the Soviets told Khomeini.

Khomeini was pitted by the Soviets' boasting, and now their planes in large numbers have been beaten down by Chinese fire sticks, and the Soviets are still bragging here, how can they bear it?

Anyway, it has already been decided, anti-aircraft missiles, just buy Chinese burning sticks.

The Soviets were somewhat embarrassed.

Even so, we will not give up because of embarrassment, "Iraq's domestic equipment of air defense missiles are all from the Soviet Union, although there is no evidence at present, we will not believe that China's air defense missiles can be so advanced!"

"The level of the military industry of the Chinese, you also understand. Until now, they did not even have tanks, fighters of the third generation...... Anti-aircraft missiles, at most, are at the same level as our SA-7 anti-aircraft missiles, and even inferior to our performance......" Maxim stressed to the Iranians.

It is not wrong to choose Soviet anti-aircraft missiles.

Chinese, no!

"According to our intelligence, the damn Iraqis got a batch of anti-aircraft missiles delivered by China the other day, and then, our fighter plane was shot down! If it's your anti-aircraft missiles, they need to wait until now?" Samnyla didn't believe the bullshit Soviets at all.

The Iran-Iraq war has been going on for more than four years now.

In normal times, the air forces of both sides are just bombing ground troops, and there are very few aerial dogfights.

Iran's lost planes, like other wars in the Middle East, were shot down in small numbers in air combat, relying on ground fire.

There is no country in the whole world that has such a love for man-portable anti-aircraft missiles in the Middle East.

Therefore, later terrorists had more man-portable anti-aircraft missiles in their hands.

"Maybe it's the Mistral missiles that the French supplied to Iraq?" The Soviets really didn't want China to get this order.

How can China tolerate copying Soviet weapons and equipment, and as a result, come to grab orders from the Soviet Union?

At the Paris Air Show in 81, France launched the world's most advanced Mistral man-portable air defense missile, compared with the same type of man-portable missile warhead weighing no more than 2 kilograms, the "Mistral" warhead weighs 3 kilograms, composed of high-energy explosives and 1850 tungsten alloy steel balls, with collision and laser proximity fuse, it has strong lethality, not only can destroy aircraft, but also destroy anti-ship missiles.

This missile is equipped with a variety of sensing devices, with strong anti-jamming and countermeasure capabilities, and has been purchased in large quantities by NATO countries as soon as it appears.

In the whole world, there is no portable anti-aircraft missile that sells better than Mistral.

"At least, that's not what you can offer us! Samnila received Khomeini's gesture and said firmly, "In terms of other weapons and equipment, we can talk." ”

Anyway, they are already iron-hearted and will not buy missiles from the Soviets.

The Mistral anti-aircraft missiles of the French are not that Iran does not want to buy them, they do not sell them to Iran at all.

Even the Iraqis can't buy it, let alone sell it to them.

"Anti-aircraft missiles, we now only want China! Reliable performance, simple operation, and cheap price. ”

"You didn't ask us about the price, how do you know that their missiles are cheaper?" the Soviets were furious.

"Your SA-7 can cost $120,000 for junk goods, how much more advanced do you need?" Ihor said unceremoniously.
