Chapter 387: Diego Garcia

On the same day that Daming's medium-range ballistic missile was test-fired, Britain and France in Europe also carried out the same missile test launch in their respective countries, and the target area of the Gauls was set in the desert of North Africa, while Britain directly crossed the Atlantic Ocean and then hit the ice sheet of Greenland.

This is already very amazing, you must know that the best redstone missile in the United States at present, the error of hitting 300 kilometers is more than 300 meters, and the error of V2 back then is actually 10 kilometers.

Of course, this is mainly due to the good work of Daming inertial navigation.

The day after the Ming, Britain, and France test-fired the missile, the Soviet Union could not wait to openly conduct a test launch of the R5 medium-range ballistic missile, and according to their own published data, the missile accurately hit the target area 3,000 kilometers away, and the error would not exceed 500 meters.

"False, Your Excellency, according to the information we have just received, the maximum range of this missile will not exceed fifteen hundred kilometers, and the error will even reach several kilometers."

Jensen said to Yang Feng with a smile.

Airbus Aerospace Systems' M1 medium-range ballistic missile was vulgarly named Meteor by the British government.

It greatly lifted the spirits of the British people, especially after the British government announced that it would equip the Meteor missile with nuclear warheads, and that it would be equipped with at least 200 such nuclear missiles in the future, which made British public opinion feel like it was back to the Victorian era. And at this time, the three Centaur-class aircraft carriers that had been parked on the slipway for many years were also completed under the stimulus of the aircraft carriers of the Soviets, and the construction of these three ships completely copied the Kunlun, so that Britain had five aircraft carriers that could rival the Soviet Union. In the Mediterranean, confidence skyrocketed for a while.

Drink water and think about the source. For Yang Feng who helped them achieve all this. Of course, it is necessary to show intimacy, and this top-secret information is not hesitant to be shared.

Of course, the main thing is that the Britons still have to rely on Yang Feng, because their three Centaur-class aircraft carriers also have no carrier-based aircraft available. The Havilland company developed a sea female fox, but used this test flight model of the carrier-based aircraft to simulate air combat with Yang Feng's chasing the wind. In the end, not to mention the two-seat chasing wind with air-to-air missiles, it was a single-seat chasing wind without air-to-air missiles, and they all abused the little female fox. The latter continues the Vampire's layout, which does make it maneuverable, but severely limits its speed, and two Evan engines with a thrust of more than five tons cannot even make this carrier-based aircraft exceed the speed of sound, which is obviously not able to compete with the Yak-25 in the Mediterranean.

Therefore, the Britons still have to find Yang Feng to buy carrier-based aircraft.

This time they want to buy a Tiger Shark, but Qiu Fatzi is financially strained, whether it is three Centaur aircraft carriers. Meteor medium-range ballistic missile, atomic bomb. Javelins and Eagle anti-aircraft missiles, these are all money, and now Britain, whose colonies are getting smaller and smaller day by day, is really stretched thin, so Qiu Fatzi wants Yang Feng to buy their treasury bonds, and then use Yang Feng's money to buy treasury bonds to buy Tiger Shark.

"Well, it's not a big deal."

Yang Feng touched his chin and groaned, it's really not a big deal, but the problem is that you have to get some real benefits.

"How about I buy you a piece of land?"

Yang Feng said suddenly.

Jensen's heart pounded, and he asked with some vigilance, "Führer, where do you want to buy?" ”

"You also have an archipelago in the Indian Ocean called Diego Garcia, right? I am now short of a transit point in the Indian Ocean, how about selling it to me? ”

Yang Feng said.

Take this opportunity to get Diego Garcia in his hands, completely cut off the stinger that the future United States will be stuck in the Indian Ocean, and with such a base in hand, when his Backfire bomber is completed, he can deter the entire Middle East, otherwise the bomber that took off from Banda Aceh will be far away after all, although it can hit Riyadh with long-range cruise DAO bombs, but it is not as efficient as having such a base after all.

"You say there, there's negotiable!"

Jensen said with a smile, and secretly let out a sigh of relief as he spoke, he also thought that Yang Feng wanted Temasek or North Borneo, if Yang Feng really asked for these two places, then it would be really difficult for them to do it, but Diego Garcia was not a big deal, although it was also an important transit point for the British Navy during the war, but now that the war is over, there is basically no much use there.

"But if you sell it, I'm afraid Congress won't agree to it."

Then he said that although it was worthless, Britain would be very disgraceful to sell its land to others.

"Then rent it and rent it to me directly."

Yang Feng said that he didn't care much about this problem, as long as he grabbed it in front of the United States and controlled it, there was no difference between renting and buying, it was nothing more than setting the lease period longer, first setting a hundred years, anyway, it would not be British's strength, and it would be impossible for the salted fish to turn over one day.

"If it's renting, it's easy."

Jensen said with a smile.

Indeed, if it is rented, it is not a big deal, not to mention renting Diego Garcia, it is renting a place on the British mainland as an air base, with the current de facto alliance between the two sides, the British government will not refuse, not to mention those two-seater wind chasing pilots of the Ming army stationed in Britain, in fact, there is no difference from the garrison in Britain.

So the two sides determined the initial intention, the Ming Empire leased the Diego Garcia Islands, which belonged to Mauritius, a British territory, as for the symbolic point of rent, even if it was a dollar, it didn't matter, the important thing was that the Ming Imperial Bank purchased 300 million US dollars of British treasury bonds, in fact, it did not use the dollar reserves of the Imperial Bank, and Yang Feng's industry in Britain had enough funds to buy this treasury bonds.

However, half of this can be purchased with dragon dollar bills.

The British government used this dragon dollar bill to buy 120 of the latest Tiger Shark carrier-based fighters from Kunpeng Airlines, because the production of this fighter has increased significantly, and the engine thrust has increased slightly, and some parts have changed from expensive titanium alloys to other cheaper materials, so the price has also dropped from the previous 800,000 dragon dollars to 600,000 yuan, although this price is still very painful, but it is not so outrageous.

One hundred and twenty is seventy-two million dragon dollars.

Of course, this batch of Tiger Sharks still does not carry air-to-air missiles, but this is not a big deal, because purely in terms of performance, it is still invincible without air-to-air missiles, which the Tiger Shark of the West German Air Force has proved that the West German Air Force and the Soviet Air Force had an air confrontation during last year's East Berlin Bao Movement, and the latest Yak-25 in the hands of the Soviet Air Force was completely suppressed in front of this fighter.

What's more, according to the time, Britain will be able to directly obtain air-to-air missiles from Daming in five or six years, and Yang Feng has also promised to open up the technology for them to produce by themselves, but it will only take more than a year to wait.

Yang Feng also gave Britain a big gift, he entrusted the British shipyard to build him another heavy aircraft carrier, but the requirement must be completed before January 57, the standard is according to the current use of the Eagle as the standard. The Yingtian aircraft carrier he built himself will be put into service early next year, and then he is ready to stop running in small steps, and directly start building a nuclear-powered supercarrier by leaps and bounds. But his target is the Nimitz class, plus it is the first time to build such a large aircraft carrier, the construction speed will definitely not be too fast, it is estimated that it will be very good to complete it together with the Enterprise in 61, and during this period, only the Yingtian and Kunlun are definitely not enough.

It is okay to buy another one from Britain that is almost the same level as the Yingtian, the Eagle 2 level is still very good, and the supercarrier will continue to be built after it is put into service, it is estimated that one will still be possible in four years, and when the second ship is put into service, it can directly let the Kunlun be withdrawn from active service. At that time, this aircraft carrier had been in use for almost 20 years, not to mention that it was too small according to the current standards of various countries, and it could only be equipped with 30 Tiger Sharks, and if it was equipped with ghosts, it was estimated that it could be equipped with more than a dozen, and such a fleet aircraft carrier was no longer very useful.

In addition, he also pre-ordered 30 vertical take-off and landing fighters under development, this fighter he is not ready to produce by himself, although it is a cooperative development, but there is no need to build a separate production line for dozens of aircraft, directly handed over to the **** Siddeli company for production.

"By the way, are you interested in cooperating in the development of nuclear submarines?"

Yang Feng then said.

Jensen's little heart jumped again.

Think, then of course I think, the Nautilus is about to be built, and the Soviets have already begun the design of the first nuclear submarine, and Britain certainly doesn't want to lag too far behind in this regard, but this thing is too technically difficult, and it is completely an unfamiliar field.

"So what about cooperation? We, I think we should invite the Gauls again, developed by our three countries, and in my design, this nuclear submarine should not be on a conventional combat mission, it should be on a country's secondary nuclear counterattack mission. You have to understand that in the event of a war, then our ballistic missile bases will definitely be the number one target of the enemy, and what if one day the enemy takes a sneak attack like Pearl Harbor and takes a nuclear strike against us first when we are unprepared?

We must have the ability to strike back even in the event of a nuclear attack, simply put, we can load nuclear missiles on our nuclear submarines and let them cruise in the ocean, so that if the enemy carries out a nuclear attack on us, these submarines will still be able to shoot revenge nuclear bombs at the enemy even if our homeland is completely destroyed. ”

Yang Feng said. (To be continued.) )
