Chapter 265: Pakistan's Ministry of Defense, Asking Mavi for Help (2)

A week later, a Boeing 737 business jet arrived at Russia's international airport on time. The tail of this business jet is printed with the Pakistani flag, and people can see at a glance who is coming.

That is Pakistan's Minister of Defense, Senior General Shahad. This is his first visit to Russia, and it is also a very urgent one.

Because at this time, the tanks and armored vehicles of the Indian Army were already heavily pressed. It is on the border between India and Pakistan, stationed, and can fight with Pakistani border guards at any time.

Including India's ace aircraft, they also harassed the airspace around Pakistan from time to time. Barely able to contain his anger, several bombs were dropped and destroyed villages on the Pakistani border.

As soon as the ramp of the plane landed, I saw General Shahad, who was wearing the uniform of a Pakistani general, walking down under the escort of soldiers.

General Shahad, 56 years old, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a dark complexion, a thick beard, and a strong appearance.

"Hello, General Shahad. Ma Wei, who had been waiting at the airport for a long time, naturally had to be responsible for the reception of the landlord's friendship. Since his acquisition of the Nizhny Sukhoi Design Bureau, the entire Russian fighter research and development has become monolithic.

Mikoyan plus Sukhoi, the two major design bureaus joined forces and complemented each other, and their R&D capabilities and production capacity have risen a lot.

"Hello, you are Mr. Mavi?" General Shahad, looking at Mavi with some surprise. He didn't expect the Russian in front of him to be so young and look like he was in his early 20s.

To put it bluntly, he is younger than his daughters. But he has become a hot military and political figure in Russia. It's incredible.

"That's right, it's me, General Shahad, how is the situation between your country and India now?" Ma Wei knew the other party's intention this time, so he simply went straight to the topic, greeting or something, and I will talk about it later.

After listening to Ma Wei's words, General Shahad sighed slightly, "Eh, the current situation is that the Indian Army has sent about 180 Victory main battle tanks, plus 100 of their newly developed Arjun main battle tanks, to confront our army on the border. As far as I know the Indians, I am afraid that it will not be long before they launch their first attack. ”

India, in the parallel world, has not yet purchased 3,500 tanks from Russia. That's because they independently developed the Arjun main battle tank, which is in large-scale production, and is very confident.

Originally, this Arjun main battle tank was only to be put into service in 2004, and the parallel world was three years ahead of schedule. It's just that the performance, quality, and most crucial cost of this tank cannot be compared with Russian tanks. On average, an Indian Arjun tank costs millions of dollars alone, but its combat effectiveness is not as good as one-eighth of the cost, the Russian T-90 main battle tank. At best, it is similar to the T-72.

It's really embarrassing for these scientists in India, the military factory.

However, although India's military industry is difficult to match Russia's. But to "bully" Pakistan, in terms of the military strength of both sides, it should have the advantage.

In the previous life, India had a huge Su-30 fighter group, plus a well-equipped mountain division, and thousands of T-72, T-55, and T-90 hungry tanks. In the sea there are aircraft carrier battle groups, destroyers, corvettes, several ballistic missile submarines.

Pakistan, on the other hand, has too few things to come up with, and the navy has only five attack submarines, plus some scattered missile boats and destroyers. And the army, in the face of India's powerful artillery, has almost no advantage. The number of third-generation fighters in the Air Force is only half that of India.

In every respect, there is no doubt that India's military strength is far superior to that of Pakistan. But it's ...... The Pakistani army is not at all afraid of the Indian army. The main reasons for this are the tactical guidance of powerful allies, the improvement of the military system, and the development of nuclear bombs. So that the Indian army has no way to start.

Why would the allies, so much help the weak Pakistan. Ma Wei knows this answer very well, and it is all the deep friendship that was fought against India in the past. The relationship is very iron, and it is not easy for interests to disintegrate.

"Minister Shahad, how many Russian-made fighters do you need this time?" asked Mavi straight to the point. He understands that what Pakistan needs most now is to send charcoal in the snow. Otherwise, you will definitely be "bullied to cry" by India.

Hearing Ma Wei's very straightforward question about the need for fighter jets, General Shahad also said to him bluntly, "Mr. Ma Wei, our Pakistani government needs about 35 Su-30 fighters. It's better to have them all ready-made, I don't know how much you sell them for?"

"Su-30 fighters, each worth 33 million US dollars. However, there is not much in stock, only about 5 aircraft. Ma Wei replied truthfully that what is needed to do business is integrity.

"Are there only 5...... Mr. Ma Wei, what is the fastest delivery time?" "General Shahad, what he is most concerned about is the delivery time. After all, far water can't solve the near fire, and their Pakistani government, it's better to pay today, get the goods tomorrow, and "train and work". Then give the Indians a good look, a little color and see.

"For the remaining 30 fighters, the fastest delivery time will take two years. Ma Wei said lightly. Nothing makes him feel more comfortable than business coming to his door automatically.

"Two years...... This one...... It seems like a little too long, Mr. Mavey. I'm afraid that we, the Pakistani army, can't wait that long... Is there a better solution on your side?" for the two-year delivery period, General Shahad, it feels like some time is too long. He had also approached the United States before, but the Americans refused to sell him F16 fighters.

The main reason for this, Ma Wei also knows, is that the Soviet Union in the parallel world did not invade Afghanistan, the United States did not oppose Russia everywhere, and the 911 terrorist attacks did not happen. Therefore, the F16 fighters, and even the higher-level F16BLOCK52 series fighters, the Americans did not choose to sell Pakistan (without the original intention of counterbalancing Russia, the Americans did not lack the money to sell fighters).

At this moment, the fighter jets of the allied countries are again in the process of development and development. So Pakistani Defense Minister Shahad, can only find Mawi through connections, and want to see if he has any solutions.

"There should be a way, General Shahad, if you want, maybe you can go with me and confirm on the spot?" asked Mavi invitedly to the Pakistani Defense Minister.

Pakistan in the previous life was not afraid of the Indian army. But in the 80s of this life, there was less support from the Americans. By the time the two sides developed in 2001, Pakistan could really suffer a big loss from India......
