These two conditions are indeed very tempting, the Black Sea Shipyard now belongs to the Bangladesh Rainbow Shipping Company, not to Ukolan, and it doesn't matter who builds aircraft carriers to, even the Ukolan government can't say anything. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The technology of the steam catapult is simple to say, but at present, only the United States has mastered the practical application, and everyone else is staring at it. Science and technology and industrial strength are almost there, and they can't make such a thing, and the Russian Navy, knowing the theory of the steam catapult, just can't find out how to put it into practice.

The two aircraft carriers, the USS Kennedy and the Kitty Hawk, were equipped with steam catapult systems, but they were strictly guarded by mercenaries 24 hours a day, and there were two checkpoints on the dock and the ship, and no non-shipboard personnel were allowed to board the ship, which the Americans appreciated the most.

At the time of the purchase, there was an agreement that no outsiders were allowed to board the ship, and it was estimated that there were agents of the US Naval Intelligence Agency on board the aircraft carrier, so it was very difficult for outsiders to understand the structure of the steam catapult, which was a necessary condition for the Russian Navy to make concessions.

And then the Black Sea Shipyard, which was the only base capable of building aircraft carriers in the former Soviet era, and the Russians also hoped that the newest aircraft carriers could join the Navy, and what did they pay for four modern-class missile destroyers?

The Russians are not mentally retarded, but the facts are here, what Marcas said is reasonable, there is nothing fictional, and besides, this kind of person is trustworthy and has closely linked his interests by selling old weapons from the former Soviet Union and developing oil and gas in Russia. You try it differently, it's strange not to be shot, and you have to have that ability to fool people.

The most frightened country is naturally Turkey, which is known as a military power in Europe, and its strength is indeed quite strong, with 4,000 main battle tanks, more than Russia, more than 500 advanced planes of all kinds, more than 100 ships of all kinds, and a total strength of more than 600,000 people.

However, in the face of Russia, a more powerful country, Turkey hurriedly sent a telegram to the United States in fright, asking for support as soon as possible.

A country whose own air force can blow up its own navy, and even sink a warship, and whose own navy can shoot down its own air force planes, cough cough, cough cough, don't talk about it!

Nima, the Americans are also anxious, but they do not dare to send the aircraft carrier fleet to the Black Sea to start a head-on conflict with Russia, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, the US government understands this truth very well, the other side has no less nuclear weapons in its hands than the United States, and if it collapses, it will inevitably lead to a devastating war.

In addition to mobilizing NATO resources to increase Turkey's troops and increase air defense missile systems, the US government had to look at the mercenary corps, and the top brass of the Ministry of Defense felt a little unspeakable.

The reason is very simple, if it is leased to an aircraft carrier of another country, once it sails to the Black Sea, it will also cause Russia to attack, this sea area belongs to their strategic location, it is the only frontier to deter Europe, and outsiders are absolutely not allowed to intervene, the desperate Russian Navy is very terrible, if a dozen nuclear submarines open fire, that kind of scene is unimaginable!

The only country where there will be no violent conflict is Ukolan, which is a bulwark for Russia, and it is impossible to fight counterfeiting at home. And the Golden Triangle International Security Company, a mercenary organization with a good relationship with Ukolan, now occupies the most strategically valuable port and fortress of Sestopol.

It is no secret that the Ukoran and the Russians do not deal with each other, in fact, they are at odds with each other, and it is no secret that the mercenary navy has the responsibility to assist the Ukolan's defense. After the division of the Black Sea Fleet, the warships obtained by Ukolan were sold to mercenaries, which is the best evidence.

"Mr. Thompson, the Presidency and the Department of Defense, after careful consideration, have decided to agree to your company's request to sell you the USS Enterprise and the USS Constellation conventionally powered, and to sell you six Ticonderoga-class missile cruisers." Thompson was personally met by an undersecretary of the Admiralty.

"I'm sorry, we have given up this intention to buy, after the company's financial review, we really don't have the money to buy these warships, I'm sorry, let's have a chance to cooperate in the future, we can't afford it." Thompson said lightly.

"The government can lower the price for you, you are an American company, so naturally you have to be taken care of, two aircraft carriers are worth 100 million dollars, and one missile cruiser is 400 million dollars, and the price of 2.5 billion US dollars is okay, right?" The deputy minister gritted his teeth and said.

"No money, no buying, can't afford it!" Thompson's heart is so cool!

"Two billion dollars, with a Patriot missile defense system launch company, how about it?" The deputy minister lowered the price.

"We really don't have any money, otherwise how can we do business with Huaxia?" Thompson cried hard.

"1.5 billion US dollars, give you two Patriot missile launch companies, in addition to the full load of missiles, with twice the number, four squadrons of a total of forty-eight fully loaded Sea Hawk anti-submarine helicopters, in order to further improve the anti-submarine capability, give you twenty P3 fixed-wing anti-submarine patrol aircraft!"

"All the equipment of aircraft carriers and missile cruisers is not a small one, including the Aegis combat system, in addition to the Perry-class frigates that will face disintegration after being decommissioned, and the Spruance-class destroyers that will be retired from active service in two to three years, you will be given two of each, equipped with weapons and ammunition, and I don't want you a penny, this is the limit of our naval department, and this money is paid in the form of a loan, and it will be paid off in three years without interest, please don't bargain with me!" The deputy minister almost roared.

The Patriot missile defense system, the Seahawk anti-submarine helicopter, and the Ticonderoga-class missile cruiser are all the most advanced and top-notch weapons and equipment in the United States, worth billions of dollars.

Of course, this is not a big deal for the United States, which is now making a lot of money, and this is not the time when the finances will be tight in 20 years.

For example, the Gulf War cost more than $100 billion, the Vietnam War cost nearly $800 billion, and the two so-called anti-terrorist wars cost nearly $17 trillion, billions of dollars.

The magnitude of this effort is simply appalling, and all the most advanced air defense weapons and anti-submarine weapons are given, and the purpose is definitely to target nuclear submarines and nuclear missiles, and the Americans want to deploy the Patriot missile defense system in Ukolan to form a deterrent to the nuclear submarine force.
