Sestopol is the main military base of mercenaries in Eastern Europe, especially in the Crimea region, which is the biggest obstacle to intercepting the westward expansion of Russia, the key to which is the naval base in the port of Sestopol.

This is the best ice-free port in the Black Sea region, a natural harbor, without which the Russian Navy can only rely on the Syrian naval base, and it is difficult to exert force deterrence against European countries in the Mediterranean.

Sestopol is strategically important as the location of the headquarters of the Eastern European Theater of Operations under the mercenary corps, the headquarters of the Black Sea Theater of the Navy and the Eastern European Corps of the Army, and the location of the Eastern European Aviation Command of the Air Force.

The twelve permanent fortress groups built by Sestopol in the former Soviet Union have extremely strong defense capabilities, and after years of continuous reinforcement and transformation of mercenary regiments, they have become the third largest strategic command center, and the other two are the Atlantis City Underground Strategic Command Center in the Atlantis Sea State and the Mountain Cave Strategic Command Center in the Golden Triangle City, all of which have the ability to prevent nuclear attacks.

When it comes to nuclear issues, it is all top secret, and several of them are permanent fortress groups, which have become the R&D and production bases of the mercenary nuclear industry, and all the nuclear warheads of ICBMs and all nuclear reactors, whether they are R&D, manufacturing and assembly, are completed in secret bases.

Also, Wu Chen negotiated with President Park Kim to spend three billion dollars to buy 300 tons of enriched uranium from Russia, one-third of which is stored in the underground warehouse of a fortress, which has been reinforced and treated with radiation protection, which is the biggest wealth of the nuclear industry in the future, how much does it cost to refine these enriched uranium?

"Mr. Marcas, your mercenary corps has really worked this city, the investment must be quite terrifying, I remember coming to Sestopol before, it is too far from the current prosperity, it can't be compared directly, even Kyiv is much inferior." This was stated by the Minister of Defense of France.

As a major arms exporter, European countries are very eager for this international defense exhibition, and the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea are not far away, and all kinds of weapons and equipment of the navy, land and air force were transported to Sestopol in just one week.

France brought the newly developed Mistral-class amphibious assault ship, with a full load displacement of 21,000 tons, 199 meters long and 32 meters wide, using the latest integrated electric propulsion system, which can carry up to 16 helicopters. But the problem is that the French Navy itself has not yet entered service, so it is used to make money.

The Lightning Strike Dock landing ship has a full load displacement of more than 12,000 tons, a length of 168 meters, a width of 23.5 meters, a deck that can accommodate seven Super Puma helicopters, and a dock that can accommodate 10 medium landing craft, or 1 mechanized landing craft and 4 medium landing craft.

In addition, there are Scorpene-class conventionally powered submarines, which were developed in cooperation with Spain, with a length of 76.2 meters, a width of 6.2 meters, a water displacement of 2,000 tons, and can be equipped with an AIP system, six 533 mm torpedo tubes, which can launch Exocet anti-ship missiles, the Italian Black Shark heavy torpedo, and the French developed wire-guided torpedo.

The Rafale fighter is the treasure of the French Air Force, and it has just come to the exhibition when it has just entered service, and naturally the Mika air-to-air missile is indispensable, which is a weapon that can compete with the advanced medium-range air-to-air missiles of the United States, and the mercenary corps has also been authorized to produce.

There wasn't much new on the army side, Leclerc main battle tanks, Milan anti-tank missiles, Cougar twin-engine multi-role helicopters, Gazelle light gunships, and Caesar's 155-mm self-propelled guns.

"Mr. Minister, the mercenary corps undertakes the important task of defending the eastern part of the European country, and Sestopol is the core, of course, we dare not be negligent, our defense forces here can only be strengthened, and will definitely not be weakened, after all, the credibility of the former Soviet government is not very good, and the mercenary corps does not dare to believe the diplomatic rhetoric of the Russian government for peaceful coexistence, God knows when it will come." Marcus said with a smile.

"The mercenaries can have such an idea, we still appreciate it very much, Russia has always wanted to reach out to the Mediterranean, but the lack of a naval base in the Black Sea has seriously hindered their strategic layout, to put it bluntly, this is because the Russian economy has not improved, the government has no ability to take military action, and now the international crude oil prices continue to rise, the Russian government's finances have greatly improved, and if it continues to develop like this, this war is really difficult to say." This was stated by the Minister of Defense of Germany.

The Russian government has been able to survive the financial crisis and inflation until now, thanks to the help of mercenaries, and the government would be in danger of bankruptcy if it were not for the continued arms purchases of the Golden Triangle Federation and large bank loans.

Russia's navy has been able to develop thanks to the help of mercenaries, otherwise with the current situation of Russia's military shipbuilding, I am afraid that even a single warship would not be able to be built, let alone a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, amphibious assault ship and missile destroyer.

Russia and the mercenaries have an extremely close strategic cooperative relationship, and even gave such an important place as the South Kuril Islands to the Golden Triangle Federation as a founding gift, so the two countries will not go to war over the Crimea region.

This statement can only fool the common people, who believes in the military is stupid, only the interests between the state and the state are eternal, and the rest are all unreliable, for the sake of Russia's strategic space, it is not a blind guess to say that the fight will start.

The biggest concern of European countries is that Russia threatens their security, especially not being able to occupy the Crimea region, once they get the resources here, the whole of Europe will be terrified, so the two bosses, France and Germany, must always remind the mercenaries not to leave anything to chance.

Germany brought a Brandenburg-class frigate this time, with a full load displacement of 4,700 tons, two large gas turbine engines and two auxiliary diesel generators, two-shaft propulsion, a length of 138.8 meters, a width of 16.7 meters, which can install four groups of eight vertical launch systems, two groups of two-mounted Exocet anti-ship missile launchers, two sets of twin torpedo launchers, and two anti-submarine helicopters can be parked on the helicopter platform.

The Type 214 AIP conventional-powered submarine is a new type of conventional submarine designed and finalized by Germany, with a length of 65 meters, a width of 6.3 meters, a maximum displacement of 1,980 tons, eight 533 mm torpedo tubes, and the launch of Harpoon anti-ship missiles and Black Shark heavy torpedoes.

The army brought PZH2000 self-propelled guns, using Leopard 1 tank turf, 52 times the caliber of 155 mm self-propelled howitzers, when firing extended-range shells, the firing range can reach 40 kilometers, and the reserve of 60 shells is one of the most advanced self-propelled guns in the world today.

Then there is the Leopard 2A6 main battle tank, the ace of the German Army, with a weight of 55.8 tons, a speed of 72 kilometers per hour, a maximum range of 550 kilometers, the latest research and development of composite armor, a 120 mm smoothbore gun, and one of the most advanced main battle tanks in the world.

The Air Force has not made any achievements, and then there is the Tiger helicopter gunship, which is a modern helicopter developed by France and Germany together, with a single-barreled 30 mm cannon and four external attachment points, which can be attached to four anti-tank missile launchers and rocket launchers, and can also carry light air-to-air missiles for self-defense.
