Subsequently, Prince Waleed gave a brief account of the situation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the request of the Pakistani military, Crown Prince Mohammed has promised in principle to provide military assistance, and it will be carried out in three phases.

First of all, the special forces of the Pakistani armed forces were redressed.

According to Crown Prince Mohammed's wishes, Saleh took 500 DF762 series firearms to Pakistan and handed them over to the Pakistani special forces for trial.

In fact, it is to prepare for a change of dress.

Next, Saudi Arabia will also provide all the first batch of DF762 series firearms purchased to Pakistan to arm Pakistan's special forces.

For this reason, the Saudi Ministry of Defense has repeatedly urged D&F to deliver the remaining 1,000 firearms as soon as possible.

As for the additional purchase of 15,000 units of DF762, it belongs to the second phase of the assistance program.

That is, Saudi Arabia will provide Pakistan with the additional purchase of DF762 series firearms free of charge to equip the border guards deployed in Kashmir.

There are two main reasons for choosing DF762 series firearms, one is time, and the other is supporting ammunition.

In the short term, the only guns that can be supplied to Pakistan and have good enough performance are D&F's DF762 series firearms.

Even if Saudi Arabia places an order immediately, arms companies like FN and H&K will not be able to supply them immediately.

The SCAR series of rifles are all produced on demand, and the production schedule of the HK417 has been scheduled for two years.

In addition, the Pakistan Army Border Guards are now equipped with G3A4 automatic rifles, so the DF762 can continue to use existing cartridges.

However, the second phase of the assistance package focuses on the replacement of standard firearms for the Pakistan Army.

In fact, this is also the key to the Saudi Ministry of Defense emphasizing in the tender to build a factory in Saudi Arabia and provide a patent license.

Only when the production capacity is obtained and the corresponding patented technology has been obtained, will it not be controlled by others.

Of course, it is also possible to significantly reduce the purchase price.

To put it simply, after the Saudi Army is reequipped, the Saudi authorities will spend billions or even tens of billions of dollars to purchase 500,000 standard rifles and machine guns for the Pakistan Army in the name of military aid, and at the same time sell them to Gulf countries such as Oman, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait.

According to Prince Waleed, the total sales in the future will certainly be 15 billion US dollars.

In other words, as long as D&F can develop new firearms in time and obtain orders from Saudi Arabia, it can make billions of dollars in profits in the next decade or so.

When the time comes, will it be necessary to acquire FN Company?

Selling hundreds of thousands of firearms and becoming standard equipment in several, or even more than a dozen countries, is enough to make D&F a first-class firearms company.

As for the third phase of the assistance operation, it will mainly focus on fighter jets and other main battle equipment.

In this regard, Prince Waleed only said a little simply.

While Pakistan wants to acquire an advanced fighter jet to replace the F-16 as soon as possible, the Saudi authorities believe that a long-term view should be taken.

The anxiety of the Pakistani military is quite understandable.

In the Pakistan Air Force, in addition to the F-16, the only thing that can barely hold up the façade is the JF-17 jointly developed with Huaxia.

Although the third batch of JF-17 uses an active phased array radar, the combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, and the performance of electronic equipment even exceeds that of all Indian fighters, but the JF-17 is a light multi-role fighter, and the engine comes from Russia.

To put it simply, the JF-17 is just barely enough and cannot be used to replace the F-16.

In the Pakistan Air Force, the JF-17 is also used to replace the J-7 and Q-5, mainly for ground strikes, not to fight for air supremacy.

According to the wishes of the Pakistan Air Force, the JF-10, developed from the J-20B, is a more ideal choice.

It's just that the Saudi authorities don't look down on such fighters.

Last year, during his visit to China, Crown Prince Mohammed showed great interest in the two fifth-generation fighters developed by China, and also visited two aircraft factories.

Although the Chinese authorities have long made it clear that the J-20 is not for sale, and will not consider selling it to the outside world until it meets the needs of the Huaxia Air Force, the Saudi authorities have not given up and are willing to jointly develop a fifth-generation fighter based on the FC-31 by providing funds.

That is, what the Royal Saudi Air Force wants is the FC-31.

The reason is also simple, after the sale of the F-35A to Israel, the US authorities made it clear that they will not sell the F-35A to Saudi Arabia in the near future.

Because apart from the United States, only Huaxia has the ability to develop and produce fifth-generation fighters, so Saudi Arabia can only turn its attention to Huaxia.

However, Huaxia also has concerns.

For this reason, Saudi Arabia thought of Pakistan, that is, to pull Pakistan, or Pakistan to intervene, it is easier to obtain China's advanced fighters.

The fighter jet, the main battle weapon of the Gundam, has nothing to do with D&F.

After Prince Walid explained the situation, Wang Dong was not ambiguous, and immediately called Zhao Yu, who stayed in Edinburgh, to ask about the production situation.

It's not that early delivery is impossible, it's just costly.

In Zhao Yu's words, let the workers work overtime, extend the working hours of each shift to 12 hours, run the production line 24 hours a day, and rent a large transport plane, and deliver 1,000 DF762 series guns within 20 days, and 2,000 per month in the future.

However, at least £1.5 million in overtime pay is required every month.

Because it is impossible for workers to work overtime all the time, it is necessary to recruit more skilled workers and spend more on wages to maintain production intensity.

There are also raw materials for the production of firearms, which will inevitably increase in price due to increased orders.

In addition, there is the cost of renting a large transport aircraft.

All in all, for D&F to complete the order ahead of schedule, the price will definitely go up, and the previous contract price will definitely make D&F lose money.

Is this what Zhao Yu said?

Wang Dong didn't break it, but he had already thought that it must have been proposed by Gao Jun, because Zhao Yu was only in charge of production, and Gao Jun was in charge of the market.

Fortunately, Prince Waleed readily agreed to raise the purchase price.

However, it will not pay additional procurement costs, but make concessions in the cooperation to build factories, that is, it promises to let D&F companies hold 51% of the equity of the joint venture factory, and all of them are technical shares, that is, they can get the corresponding equity without paying a penny.

Zhao Yu immediately gave an affirmative answer to Prince Walid's proposal.

Undoubtedly, it was Gao Jun's idea.

In fact, even if the production line is kept running 24 hours a day, D&F will not lose money, at most it will make a little less.

As for Prince Waleed's proposal, in the long run, it could bring great benefits to the D&F company, or rather huge profits.

If nothing else, just dominating the market of Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries is enough for D&F companies to make a fortune.

"When are you leaving?"

Wang Dong was slightly stunned, and looked at Prince Waleed incomprehensibly.

"Go to Pakistan so I can have Saleh pick you up at the airport."

"Need us to get over right away?"

"The sooner the better."

"Okay, just for a few days."

"It's arranged, call me."

Wang Dong nodded in agreement, and the butler who sent him over had already come to the back garden, and the helicopter parked on the opposite side of the waterhole had also been activated.
