Chapter 820: Bidding

It is precisely because of the excellent performance and ferocious combat effectiveness of the "Beech" air defense missile system that Galitsky will have full confidence to say such confident words, but Butin, who was standing beside him, was unmoved and slowly shook his head:

"Please don't underestimate the Chinese!"

"Underestimated?"

Listening to Butin's words, Galitsky only felt that the cold man in front of him, who had served as a KGB agent, had really kept that set of shady professional habits for too long, and couldn't help but smile meaningfully, and said indifferently:

"I admit that China has made extraordinary progress in the development of armaments in recent years, but you must not forget that my dear Comrade Bujing, China's industrial foundation is actually very thin, and even if they can develop world-class weapons and equipment in some fields, they still cannot compare with us in most fields, especially in the field of air defense missiles.

As far back as the Second World War, we began to study in this area, and after World War II, we developed and put into service the first generation of air defense missile systems, followed by SAM 2, SAM 3, SAM 5, SAM 6, almost every few years, we will carry out technological innovation in this area, not to mention that these missiles have accumulated countless practical combat experience in decades of regional turmoil and local wars.

But what about China? They have been circling the old-fashioned Sam 2 for decades, and even if they make a huge breakthrough on it, it is nothing more than a change of seeker, a change of liquid to a solid, in short, just a stopgap measure, to fool Iran, which is at war and under sanctions, and who in the rest of the world can afford this old thing?

Perhaps the 'Falcon' air defense missile system is a big step forward for them, but for us it is only a primary product of the second generation, and it cannot be compared with the third-generation air defense missile system such as the 'Beech' or the S-300, so it is ........."

As he spoke, Galitsky paused, then stretched out his big hand and patted Butin's shoulder, and comforted him confidently: "It's just wishful thinking for Chinese to come here, because sometimes you need real strength to speak, and obviously China doesn't have such strength now..........."

Galitsky's remarks can be described as light, but the comparison between the technical strength of China and the Soviet Union in the field of air defense missiles is very powerful, and in fact it is true, the Soviet Union can be said to be the pioneer of the world's air defense missile system, as early as 1948 developed and put into service the first air defense missile system Sam-1.

Over the past few decades, the Soviet Union has developed extremely rapidly in the field of air defense missiles, and the replacement is even more jaw-dropping, almost every five years or so, a new air defense missile system will be launched, and it is precisely because of this that the Soviet Union is proud of the world in terms of air defense missile development and combat experience, so the latest Soviet air defense missile is often synonymous with the world's top.

China, on the other hand, has a very weak foundation in this regard, and in the early years, the relevant air defense missile development and production system established from the imitation of the Sam-2 has only completely eaten the technology of the Sam-2 for several decades, and as for the more advanced domestic air defense missiles, it has always been difficult to move forward every time it is launched because of the lack of technology and experience, so the subsequent Hongqi 3, Hongqi 4, and Hongqi 61 all ended without a problem.

Even in recent years, with the continuous deepening of reform and opening up, the modernization of the military industry has made great progress, and even surpassed the Soviet Union in some aspects, but the lack of experience is still irreparable.

The veteran looks bearded, old-fashioned, and even the steel gun in his hand is dilapidated, no matter how you look at it, it is not as powerful and domineering as the new soldier, but once on the battlefield, the veteran can rely on rich battlefield experience, dodge the enemy's artillery fire, dodge the incoming bullets, and finally completely destroy the enemy, while the new soldier may be killed in the first round of enemy fire because of lack of experience........

The same is true of experience in the field of military industry, where experienced people throw iron pieces on the ground, listen to the sound to identify the carbon content in them, and solve technical problems worth tens of millions of dollars with two rivets and a few process holes..........

To be honest, he himself does not actually think that the "Beech" missile will lose to China's "Falcon", but the so-called world is unpredictable, not to mention that Butin has personally experienced such a thing, and before the outbreak of the conflict between China and the Soviet Union in the South China Sea, who would have thought that China's Jian-H-9 would be able to beat the Soviet Union's MiG-29 to the ground and chase the MiG-31 into the sky?

It is estimated that when they heard this statement before the war, all the generals, including Bujing, would feel that this kind of remark was purely a fantasy, but the fact made the Arabian Nights a reality that could not be changed, and this also made Buyin and other Soviet people of insight no longer have a contempt for China, because they did not know that the Chinese did not know when they would turn the Arabian Nights into reality again.

It is precisely for this reason that after receiving the bidding for the Iraqi air defense missile system, which was a similar system from China, Buchin was in a spirit of 12 points, not only taking out the original Soviet goods without any technical discount, but also using his connections in Iraq to collude with the Iraqi army and the top level of the government.

While creating convenient conditions for the Soviet Union, it also created many obstacles for China, just to get the Iraqi order under the double insurance of technology and situation, thinking of this, Bujing did not explain anything, because he had said a lot before, but Galitsky's stubborn people could not listen to it at all, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile and said meaningfully:

"I just hope that the Chinese will not be able to create a miracle this time!"

"They can't work miracles because there are no miracles anymore..........."

As soon as Butin's voice fell, before Galitsky could answer, there was a burst of Russian with a Leningrad accent behind him, Bujing and Galitsky couldn't help but turn their heads when they heard the words, and at this time, a general wearing the uniform of an Iraqi Air Force general and a clean face walked over with a tiger's pace, and when Galitsky saw this person, the smile on his face became even brighter, and he took a few steps forward to meet the person and stretched out his hand:

"Dear General Salah, I didn't expect to see you again so soon!"

The person who came was none other than the commander of the Iraqi Air Force, General Salah, who stretched out his hand at this time, shook his hand with Salah very friendly, nodded and replied:

"I'm glad to meet you, Mr. Galitsky!" said Admiral Salah as he looked at Bujing on the side, and an intriguing smile appeared on his silent face:

"Mr. Bugin, I think the next news will make you abandon the gloom of the past and smile heartily!"

Listening to Salah's words, Butin and Galitsky were both stunned, but even after reacting, Galitsky's eyes lit up even more, and he said urgently:

"General, could it be that our air defense system was directly passed by your country?"

Admiral Salah pretended to be profound, and shook his head: "If it weren't for Musharraf's surprise visit a few days ago, maybe it would have been decided, you know, I was under great pressure to persuade President Saddam to purchase a new medium-range air defense system, but I didn't expect Pakistan's Musharraf to suddenly visit, so that China's similar equipment entered the president's sight, so I could only finish this transition according to the original plan..........

After all, from the day the Chinese arms sales negotiation delegation stepped into Iraqi soil, they knew that it was obviously impossible to win this order without bidding, but the so-called bidding was very simple and complicated, and the manipulation in it was very strong, and it was precisely because of this that Bujing and Galitsky made the article above the bidding..........

"Let's ask the general to tell me in detail why there are no miracles in China!"

Bujing opened his mouth unhurriedly, although his voice was not loud, but it was in one sentence, General Salah couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, worthy of his mentor, who had served as an adviser to the Iraqi Air Force, and a senior general of the Soviet Territorial Defense Force, Kurochkin, couldn't help but smile and nodded:

"It's very simple, that is, the bidding test is advanced to the day after tomorrow, and as for the result of the referee, I am also solely responsible, this is an order personally issued by His Excellency the President half an hour ago, I heard that China's relevant equipment has not yet crossed the Iran-Saudi border, hundreds of kilometers away, I really don't know if they can arrive before 9 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow..........."

The indifferent smile on Admiral Salah's face gradually became gloomy, and his vulture-like gloomy eyes burst out with greedy heroism, and Galitsky on the side couldn't help but shudder, only to feel that Admiral Salah at this time was really mysterious and unpredictable, but Bujing was unmoved, and a shallow smile finally appeared on his calm face:

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency General, I will definitely be exactly right if I agree to your conditions!"

"Then I'll see......... Oh, by the way, this is the test project of the day after tomorrow, basically tailored for you, presumably these days you have also carried out a series of targeted preparation training at base M, but there are still some benefits to taking a look, okay, you can rest well for the next two days, and the day after tomorrow I will wait for your victory carnival.........."

Bujing put away the materials handed over by Salah, and then nodded politely at him, and finally a confident look appeared on his face:

"I think we should be fine.........."

In this way, General Salah left by car because of the chatter between the two men, and Bujing and Galitsky then drove to the M air base, 40 kilometers southeast of Baghdad........... (To be continued.) )
