Chapter 249: Love to Buy or Not to Buy!
"Well, that is, it is enough to be able to achieve such an end, and there are practically no hard and fast requirements for what kind of weapon to use, and there is nothing wrong with that, Mr. Ahmed."
Li Lu said with a smile.
Ahmed was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he could indeed understand it this way, but he always felt that something was wrong...... He hesitated and said, "Is there a better weapon against a tank than a tank?" ”
"Of course." Li Lu replied in the affirmative.
Niu Jun immediately got up and took the prepared brochure and handed it to Ahmed, the brochure was still hot.
Li Lu said very seriously, "Mr. Ahmed, what you are seeing now is China's latest anti-tank missile system, which has the same combat capability as the anti-tank missiles in service in the United States and the Soviet Union. He only entered the service of our army the year before last. We have come up with this weapon to fully demonstrate the importance we attach to your procurement requirements. That's the alternative I offer. ”
"Anti-tank missile system?" Ahmed was clearly interested.
Everything related to missiles is a hard bone in the arms introduction. There are various treaty restrictions, such as the prohibition of the proliferation of missiles with a range of more than 300 kilometers. Ahmed is no stranger to anti-tank missiles, and they also bought some Soviet AT series anti-tank missiles - the Red Arrow-73 was developed based on this.
However, with anti-tank missiles with mobility, Ahmed is well aware that he does not have them in his arsenal. Isn't this an anti-tank missile vehicle?
Li Lu said with a smile, "To be exact, it is a light wheeled anti-tank missile system." Using the four-wheeled off-road vehicle as a platform, the anti-tank missile system is integrated, and the system integrates search and launch. In addition, there is a special light wheeled reconnaissance vehicle of the same platform. Mr. Ahmed, what you are seeing may be a combination of several weapons, but in fact an integration of systems that can exert several times the combat effectiveness of the original portable anti-tank missile. ”
After a pause, he pointed to the information and said, "The system has a maximum cross-country capability of more than 50 kilometers per hour, and the road maneuvering speed is up to 80 kilometers per hour." It only takes a few minutes to move from a marching state to a combat state, and the maneuver is very flexible, and the target is small, which is easy to conceal. I have checked the information and found that 90 percent of your current combat environment is suitable for the mobility of this type of weapon. It can even go where tanks can't. ”
This is an exaggeration, but there is nothing wrong with it in theory.
"It's hard to imagine that this weapon has more anti-tank capabilities than the Asian Tiger tank." Ahmed shook his head.
Li Lu said, "Mr. Ahmed, the two weapons are not compared like this. It is undeniable that the best option is a tank, which has a variety of combat capabilities, and this Fox Hunt anti-tank missile system is a professional anti-armor weapon. In terms of anti-armor alone, although the Fox Hunt cannot surpass the Asian Tiger tank, it will definitely not be much inferior. ”
After a pause, he threw out the two conditions that would most impress Ahmed, he said, "The most important thing is that the Fox Hunt anti-tank missile system will not be limited by production capacity, and the price is only one-third of the Asian Tiger tank." ”
Sure enough, Ahmed was tempted.
This means that the Iraqi army is able to form a strong advantage over the Iranian army in a short time. With the addition of these mobile and flexible battlefield elves, with the help of their own tank troops, the enemy's tank troops will definitely tremble.
Of course, he knew that the hit rate of an anti-tank missile capable of manually guiding an attack was definitely higher than that of a tank shell!
Ahmad agreed with Li Lu's point of view, one is a ground main battle weapon, and the other is a professional weapon against the ground main station weapon, and the two do not have the conditions for comparison.
Ahmed, then, would have thought that the procurement of such anti-tank weapons would also put his side in the driver's seat if he could not prevent Shapur from acquiring the Asian Tiger tank.
He pondered for a while, and then asked, "Mr. Li, can the Fox Hunt anti-tank missile system penetrate the frontal armor of the Asian Tiger tank?" ”
Can your spear pierce your shield?
Pei Lei and Ma Jintao's brows jumped, and then they looked at each other, and their mood suddenly became very nervous. I couldn't have imagined that this bearded Iraqi official would ask such a sharp question. Such a question, no matter how it is answered, will affect one of the weapons.
Niu Jun looked at Li Lu even more nervously, worried that if he didn't answer well, the image of one of the weapons would be affected, which would be very detrimental to future sales.
Li Lu knew why Ahmed was asking this question, in fact, he was asking if the Iranians had already acquired the Asian Tiger tank.
"We haven't had a similar trial." Li Lu pointed to the technical data and said, "The combat distance of the Red Arrow 73 anti-tank missile is 100 meters to 3,000 meters, and at this distance, the armor-piercing thickness is 400 millimeters. The combat distance with the highest hit rate is between 600 meters and 3,000 meters. Of course, this is closely related to the quality of the operator. ”
After a pause, Li Lu said, "I can only tell you that the Red Arrow 73 can destroy more than 90 percent of the active tanks. In the future, we will continue to improve and improve the performance of this anti-tank missile. ”
Quite simply, if Ahmed asks for a demonstration of the Red Arrow-73 anti-tank missile attacking the frontal armor of the Asian Tiger tank, it shows that he cares about the performance of the weapon, and on the contrary, he is testing whether the Iranians have bought the Asian Tiger tank.
Ahmad did not make a request, but said, "I believe in the combat performance of the fox hunt, which has been clearly described in the information. However, I still have the same problem. If the Fox Hunter can penetrate the front armor of the Asian Tiger tank, then I am willing to purchase no less than a hundred sets of Fox Hunt. ”
1.5 billion dollar contract.
If there are leaders of relevant departments present at this time, he will immediately agree to come down and offer to demonstrate, if Li Lu does not agree, the leaders will point a gun at Li Lu's head to force him to comply.
You know, at this moment, the country's foreign exchange reserves add up to a billion dollars!
The news of the big contract with Shapur has not yet spread, if the leaders of the relevant departments learn about this, in the face of huge foreign exchange, they don't even want to do anything - they don't care if they live or die, sell and sell, sell everything, and sell everyone who wants.
In another time and space, isn't this how I offended one of the parties and didn't be able to repair the relationship until Lao Sa died?
You can't do a one-shot deal, Li Lu is still thinking about Iraq's oil.
Pei Lei and the others were so nervous that they couldn't even feel a cold sweat on their backs. They have never participated in such negotiations, because they do not know that such-for-tat confrontations are normal in negotiations.
They saw Li Lu smile faintly and said, "Mr. Ahmed, if you ask for it, we will make a demonstration." But until then, I can't give you a definite answer here. As for whether to purchase Fox Hunt, the decision is entirely up to you. ”
Ahmed was slightly stunned, and he suddenly came back to his senses at this time - the seeker was definitely not the other party, but his own. He thought that this would be a way to get some information about the Iranians, but he still thought that the young man in front of him was too simplistic.
That's right, you don't want to buy it!
