Colonel An Li's words were like pouring a basin of cold water on the head of Deputy Commander Assad, who was full of joy and pride, and made him feel a little chilled all over his body. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

That's right, he just felt cold, because he had intentionally or unintentionally ignored the Wehrmacht or Li Mo's economic strength.

Taking the well-known F-22 fighter as an example, the United States has only purchased less than 200 planes so far, and although the purchase price of the US Air Force is more expensive than the cost price, and this price may be 200 million or even higher, the United States' economic strength is very strong, and Somalia has no comparable surname at all.

And in addition to the F-22 fighter jet, the United States has the world's largest air force, F-15, F-16, etc. are now advanced third-generation main fighters, but what about Somalia? In addition to more than 20 Su-27SS, there are no advanced fighters, which means that the main force of the Somali Air Force in the future will be the 'Condor' fighters.

But the unit price of nearly 150 million US dollars is definitely able to make most countries stop, how many planes can Li Mo purchase?

It's a problem that I don't want to face but have to face.

"According to the deduction of the General Staff and the Air Force, Somalia needs at least two squadrons of 'Condor' fighters to ensure the security of its territorial air defense, and if it is an offensive hostage, then it needs three squadrons." At this time, the Chief of the General Staff, Major General Hussein, spoke again.

"Two squadrons?" Li Mo asked suspiciously, he didn't know this data yet.

"Yes!" Hussain nodded and explained, "In the Iraq War, the United States used five aircraft carriers during the most political axes, plus the major air bases and allies in the surrounding areas, once ...... I mean, in the event of a conflict with the West, a military invasion, we will face an extremely large enemy air force, and two squadrons are just a conservative statistic, and we have not counted the part that is used as a strategic bomber to carry out strategic duty. ”

Although Hussein's remarks are somewhat one-sided, after all, whether it was the Gulf War or the Iraq War, Iraq displayed strength that is not comparable to that of Somalia now, and although the ambitious Saddam Hussein was still hiding in the mountains to fight guerrillas, no one could ignore the strong strength of Iraq led by him at the beginning, and it was a hegemon in the Middle East.

According to the calculations of the General Staff Headquarters, Somalia needs at least five squadrons of 'Condor' fighters, and according to the general establishment of the existing air forces of various countries, the total number of fighters exceeds 100, and the need for funds naturally exceeds 10 billion, and it is very close to 20 billion.

"We will not discuss the issue of funding for the time being, but we will return to the topic now, how to position the 'strategic air force'?" Li Mo felt that if he continued to dwell on the issue of funds, it would hit the self-confidence of some people, so he changed the topic.

Chief of Staff Hussein came up with another report at this time, which included the General Staff's thoughts on the 'strategic air force'.

In the plan of the General Staff, the future strategic air force will remain part of the Somali Air Force and will not be treated as a separate branch. However, under the framework of the strategic air force, it should be divided into two, one of which is the strategic air force in the real sense, or the strategic bomber force, that is, carrying nuclear warheads to carry out strategic nuclear deterrence.

In the plan, half to one squadron of planes in the strategic air force will be divided into separate formations, and these planes will not normally carry out conventional combat missions, but will be stationed in several air bases throughout the country, and they will form the strategic nuclear forces of Somalia together with the strategic missile regiments. Here, there is one more proposal, that is, to gradually abolish the deployment of the Firmament-1 missiles in the Strategic Missile Regiment, and in the future, the Firmament-1 missiles will be developed into medium- and long-range conventional strike forces and will no longer take on the task of nuclear strikes. Somalia's nuclear deterrent will now consist mainly of Sky 11 or longer-range missiles and Condor fighters.

Except for the aircraft that carry out strategic nuclear deterrence missions, the other "Divine Eagle" fighters belong to a kind of multi-purpose aircraft that carry out a variety of combat missions, such as air supremacy, bombing, and even anti-ship combat missions. In the plan of the General Staff, there is also a 'high and low match', but it is not the Su-27 and MiG-29 matching, but the 'Condor' fighter and the Su-27 matching. In the future, the Su-27 and other 'conventional fighters' only performed some low-difficulty combat missions, and all high-difficulty combat missions were handed over to the 'Divine Eagle' fighters.

"Chief of Staff, according to the plan of the General Staff, it is true that at least five squadrons are needed to meet the needs of the Somali Air Force, but what does it mean to increase the 'number of conventional fighters' at the end?" Li Mo asked after looking at the plan of the General Staff on one side.

"Commander, we think so, after all, the 'Divine Eagle' fighter is too advanced, and in ordinary combat missions, the 'Divine Eagle' fighter is not as efficient as ordinary fighters precisely because it is too advanced, and in terms of maintenance costs, this kind of aircraft is definitely more expensive than conventional fighters."

Hussein's explanation Li Mo is somewhat clear, that is, sometimes you don't need a knife to kill chickens, and let the 'Divine Eagle' fighters support some battles, which is quite a feeling of 'cannon fighting mosquitoes'. Moreover, it involves the consideration of the surname price ratio, and the Somali Air Force still needs a certain scale of conventional fighters in the future.

"This is very important and realistic, Assad, what do you think of the plan of the General Staff? This is mainly a matter for the Air Force, and the opinion of you, the deputy commander, is also very important. Li Mo nodded slightly, then looked at Assad and asked.

"Commander, I think the plan that the staff has come up with is very good, we just need to think through some details." Naturally, Assad has no opinion, because when this plan was formulated, the Air Force was consulted, and many of the contents were put forward by the Air Force.

Li Mo showed a smile on his face, glanced at a few and said, "It seems that everyone is very serious about preparing for the strategic air force, which is very good, I won't say anything here, but one thing you have to understand is that for us, the air force is the most important offensive type of arms, and the 'Divine Eagle' fighter has the advantages in this regard, and we have the advantages that ordinary fighters do not have, such as ultra-high-altitude and ultra-high-speed, long-range bomb load, etc., so we have to think more about how to give full play to our advantages?" We will not invade others, but we must resolutely and unhesitatingly strike at those who infringe on our interests, and the General Staff Department and the Air Force must draw up relevant plans and training. The Americans can achieve the ability to respond quickly and launch to any point in the world within 24 hours, and our fighters can strike at any point in the world within a few hours, which is our advantage, so everyone should be bolder, be more open-minded, don't treat us as a weakling, but also don't be blindly arrogant, we need to maintain everything that belongs to us, and we don't covet other people's things. ”

After Li Mo finished speaking, everyone present applauded. If there are outsiders here, they will definitely be hit by what they just said, these people here are all hawks, don't you know that you want to maintain world peace?

…… In a well-guarded castle on the northeastern outskirts of Mogadishu, a special guest arrived. She is the United Nations Goodwill Ambassador, and she is called 'Cindy'? Crawford's Aisha? Gaddafi.

As the only daughter of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, Aisha's surname is most like her father's, so she is very beloved, and Aisha, who just got married last year, came to Somalia not for anything else but for a special purpose.

Yang Xiaorou received Aisha as the owner of the castle, and Zhang Lixia's four daughters, who had long been 'friends' with Aisha, must have stayed at home.

The last time I attended Aisha's wedding, these women became friends. There are some objective reasons for this, but more of it is Aisha's deliberate friendship.

"Sister Aisha, I heard that after you got married, you went to the Sahara Desert for your honeymoon?" Liu Wei, who is gradually recovering from her father's disappearance, regains her cheerfulness, and after meeting Aisha, she raises a problem.

Aisha is dressed in a very fashionable outfit, but it is all white, and there is a scarf on her head, which looks more 'alternative'.

To Liu Wei's question, Aisha smiled and said, "Yes, the six of us and four bodyguards crossed the Sahara Desert together. ”

"Wow......" The four girls all showed a look of surprise and a hint of envy. Other people choose the kind of place with beautiful scenery and strong natural atmosphere, at least a place with a suitable environment, but the location chosen by Aisha for her honeymoon is special.

Immediately, several girls chased after each other and asked questions such as 'Is it hot in the desert' and 'Are there any beasts?', which made Yang Xiaorou on the side very funny.

Aisha, on the other hand, answered every question carefully and seemed very patient.

"I can take you there if you want, but there are many dangers in the desert, but it is also very exciting." Aisha said with a smile.

The four women stopped talking when they heard this, and although they were envious, they were not necessarily willing to suffer. Because the weather here in Somalia is relatively hot, in some wilderness areas look the same, and in the desert it is definitely worse, their delicate bodies are afraid that they will not be able to bear it, even if they can eat it, they are not willing to suffer.

This shows the difference between Aisha, who grew up in this environment, and the four daughters who grew up in China.

"But there's a bit of chaos in my country right now, and now is not a good time to go exploring." Aisha continued.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaorou's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, she usually watches some current affairs news, and knows that the Libyan opposition is very fierce, which has nothing to do with her, but Aisha said this here, but it made her think more complicated.

But then, Aisha is to talk to everyone about some women's topics, compared to the knowledgeable Aisha, the four daughters are much more immature, so some of Aisha's words can always arouse the curiosity and interest of the four women, from the beginning to the end, Aisha has firmly grasped the initiative.

Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, but the stars can't go home, which is quite a pity. I went out with my friends in the evening and drank a little wine, and my head was still dizzy, so I was late for the update, and I apologized to my book friends again.
