Chapter 1411 Damn! Old fox! (Three more, one shift to)
Expensive? It's expensive, it's expensive, it means it's a good car. Mirza's heart was immediately excited, and his personal experience really proved that this Hummer military vehicle is indeed a good car.
He did know that the army of the republic is equipped with a batch of Toyota Land Cruiser LC80 and Mitsubishi Pajero off-road vehicles, which were originally only civilian models of off-road vehicles, which can be called the most luxurious "military vehicles" in the army of the Republic today, although it is not sure how many of these two types of vehicles are in total, but there are hundreds or thousands of them, but the Hummer military vehicle produced by Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is only equipped with a small batch?
Mirza's train of thought was instantly distorted.
"Lin, what do you think of motorized armies in the conditions of modern warfare?" Mirza suddenly asked Lin Hongfei, compared with just now, Mirza was much more enthusiastic about Lin Hongfei's tone.
"A motorized army in the conditions of modern warfare?" Lin Hongfei frowned, carefully understanding the meaning of Mirza's words to ensure that he would not misunderstand the other party's intentions.
Lin Hongfei didn't speak for a while, and Mirza didn't mean to urge Lin Hongfei, quietly waiting for Lin Hongfei's answer, even Colonel Liu, looking at Lin Hongfei with interest, as if he was very curious about Lin Hongfei's answer.
Lin Hongfei thought seriously for a while before cautiously replying, "I personally believe that it is impossible for a motorized army to become the main force of war under the conditions of modern warfare, and the future development direction of the army's operations is to realize the informationized mechanized combat unit...... In my opinion, this is only a change in the direction of future operations of the single arm of the army, and in the future, war should no longer be confined to the operations of a certain branch of the armed forces, but will be a multi-arm joint and coordinated operation of the navy, army, and air force, as well as the space army and the information-based army. ”
"The era of single-arm warfare, well. It can't be said to be a thing of the past, if it's Africa or some war-torn areas, a strong army is enough to ensure the military balance between these countries and their neighbors and enough deterrence, but this level is not enough for Pakistan, right? ”
For the sake of this cooperation with Pakistan, Lin Hongfei made up for a while the basic situation of Pakistan and the situation of the Pakistani army; in terms of the overall equipment level and combat level, the strength of the three armed forces of Pakistan is not strong, and at best it can be regarded as a regional power, otherwise it would not be possible to be in a defensive position in the struggle with India. The Army, which is the core of its three armed forces, has not even fully realized motorization, let alone mechanization and informationization...... What is informatization?
Lin Hongfei's words were tactful enough, but the meaning of his words. How could Mirza not hear it?
If these words had been made before the 1991 Gulf War, he would have been able to spray Lin Hongfei's spittle. But now it's the summer of 1994. The shock brought by the Gulf War to everyone, and all kinds of articles on the combat mode of the future war deduced by the military powers of the world from the Gulf War have already been overwhelming, so for Lin Hongfei's words, Mirza can only sigh long: "Who says it's not? However, Pakistan's industrial base is so weak that the army has not even fully realized motorization, let alone mechanization and informatization......"
He turned his head to look at Colonel Liu, his expression extremely sincere. "Colonel Liu, Pakistan and your country are friendly neighbors separated by a strip of water, and they have always been ahead of Pakistan in army building, and they have also set a good example for us. I hope that your country can provide us with some help in the construction of the army. ”
"This ...... I'll report to the leaders. The corners of Colonel Liu's mouth twitched a few times, and then he gritted his teeth and said to Mirza, and at the same time glared at Lin Hongfei fiercely: This bastard's simple plan, why didn't you see it?
Lin Hongfei also twitched the corners of his eyes, and then he realized that he was surrounded by the bastard Mirza, and he was a little annoyed in his heart: Your Pakistan Army has not yet fully realized motorization, could it be that the Republic Army has already passed through motorization and achieved mechanization and informatization?
Depend on! Use Lao Tzu as a gunman!
Although Lin Hongfei also knows that the exchanges between countries are essentially an exchange of interests, and it is impossible to force himself to change his mind because of a few words of the other party's run, but this feeling is really unpleasant, and Boss Lin is even beginning to think about whether to do something in the next cooperation?
"Xie Lu Xie Colonel Liu," Mirza nodded to Colonel Liu with a grateful face, and then said to Lin Hongfei, "Lin, I have a reluctant request, I hope you can agree." ”
Zhilu Dao is reluctantly invited, and you still hope that I agree? Lin Hongfei realized that it was not unreasonable for Pakistan to send Mirza, this guy is not only cunning, but also extremely thick-skinned!
"Let's talk about it, as long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse." Lin Hongfei resisted the urge to smash a punch in Mirza's face in his heart, smiled and nodded: I won't shirk what I did, but if I can't do it, I will definitely shirk.
"I know that your company is unique in motorcycle technology, and its strength is not inferior to the four major motorcycle manufacturers in Japan. Mirza looked at Lin Hongfei and pleaded sincerely.
"What?" Lin Hongfei was stunned, he thought about it a lot, but he didn't expect that it would be such a question: let yourself help them get a military motorcycle?
Not only Lin Hongfei was stunned, but even Colonel Liu was stunned, in his mind, Mirza should have asked for benefits from the Republic through the words just now, why did it suddenly become a request for Lin Hongfei to help them design a motorcycle? Nima, this is not scientific!
"What? Questions? Seeing Lin Hongfei's stunned expression, Mirza's heart suddenly sank.
"Oh, no, no, there is no problem," Lin Hongfei, who came to his senses from his surprise, hurriedly shook his head, "From a technical point of view, there is no problem at all, but because the requirements for reliability, durability and many other aspects of military motorcycles are much higher than those of civilian motorcycles, the cost may be relatively high......"
Speaking of this, Lin Hongfei suddenly realized that he had ignored a question, and asked Mirza, "By the way, Your Excellency General, I don't know what the basic requirements of your army are for this kind of military motorcycle?" ”
Since Mirza mentioned this issue, Lin Hongfei never believes that Mirza is not psychologically prepared on this issue.
"Requirements? Of course, there is, the first one, in addition to being able to use ordinary civilian gasoline, aviation kerosene can also be used. ”
"This ......" Lin Hongfei frowned.
This requirement is a bit high, requiring the use of ordinary gasoline motorcycles can use high-grade aviation kerosene from the perspective of cost-effectiveness ratio is not cost-effective, in their own impression, it seems that only the wealthy Yankees have done this, they modified the KLR650 all-terrain motorcycle of Kawasaki, Japan, not only gave this car the official army number of the M1030, but also because of the characteristics of this military motorcycle lightweight, durable and adaptable, has been responsible for the transmission of documents between various military units of the US military, The task of transmitting information and transporting small quantities of cargo can even be used to transport military observers, gendarmes and scouts, etc.
The fuel used in this modified Kawasaki KLR650 all-terrain vehicle is also extremely "luxurious", not ordinary gasoline, but JP8 hybrid aviation fuel, the price of this thing is much more expensive than ordinary gasoline, but the Americans are willing to do this, no way, who makes the old United States rich, in order to reduce the pressure on logistics, this luxury and waste is nothing, but the Americans have money, waste, do you Pakistan have this strength?
Not only Lin Hongfei is frowning, Colonel Liu is also frowning, the army of the Republic is also equipped with a large number of motorcycles, but most of the motorcycles used in the army of the Republic are the Yangtze River 750 type partial three-wheeled, commonly known as "nephew", this car uses ordinary civilian gasoline, and the army of the Republic has never been specially designed for the Yangtze River 750 to have an engine that can use aviation kerosene...... Even Big Brother doesn't have this idea, what are you Pakistani?
"What? Mr. Lin, is there a question? Seeing Lin Hongfei's embarrassed expression, Mirza suddenly looked nervous.
"No, no problem, from a technical point of view, it's no problem at all, the only problem is that after doing this, the cost of using this motorcycle will be relatively high, and as far as I know, it seems that your country's oil reserves are not very rich, and this is a bit inconsistent with the cost-effectiveness ratio......" With as tactful as possible, Lin Hongfei tactfully persuaded Mirza to give up this idea, at least in Lin Hongfei's opinion, Mirza's request was completely unnecessary.
"That's right......," Mirza muttered.
Mirza is not stupid, don't look at Lin Hongfei's euphemism, but how could he not hear the meaning of the words? Now listening to Lin Hongfei say this, he also feels that his actions seem to be a little impulsive: yes, aviation fuel is so expensive, is it really necessary to do this?
The reason why he put forward such a request is entirely because he saw that the military motorcycles used by the US military have achieved the versatility of fuel, but he forgot that the US military and the Pakistani army are fundamentally different, and the two are not comparable at all.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't think about it." After thinking about it for a moment, Mirza had to admit that he had failed to think about it in this matter. (To be continued......)
