Chapter 426 The Arms Race

The Gulf Cooperation Organization (GCC) was quickly formed in Karachi, with members including the Ming Empire, Britain, Persia, Pakistan and Babylon, of which Britain and Babylon were also in the Central Pact.

The purpose of this cooperation organization is actually very simple, that is, to strengthen regional peace and stability, to enhance economic and trade cooperation between member countries, as well as exchanges and cooperation in the military, cultural, educational and other fields.

For example, if the Ming Dynasty wants to send troops to Persia, if it is clearly written that Persia invites the Ming Dynasty to garrison, then it will become a military alliance, but if it is not written like this, it will become a military exchange.

The difference between military alliances and military exchanges is enormous.

At the same time, there is also the Central Treaty Organization dominated by the Mi people, whose member states include Mi, Britain, Babylon and Tuji, the latter has recently soared in the minds of Mi, whether Persia is falling to Yang Feng or Greece and this guy is eye-to-eye, and the Syrian Kuatli government quickly fell to the Soviet Union after coming to power, all of which have made the Tuji sandwiched in the middle become the most important ally of Mi in the Mediterranean. Especially after Yang Feng sold the tiger shark to Greece, the United States has even begun to provide super saber to the local chicken, which is very remarkable, and the importance of the local chicken to them will definitely increase significantly in the future.

In addition to this, there is also a system that is the Soviet Union and Egypt and Syria, although the latter is not a Soviet ally at this time, but it is basically the same, the latest batch of Soviet fighters is about to be delivered to Syria, but not the first batch of MiG-15 delivered in history, but the Yak-25, the most advanced in the Soviet Air Force. In addition, Egypt and Syria are preparing to merge and then form the Federal Arab Republic.

In this way, basically all the people in the Middle East who should stand in line are in line, and there are still four remaining Najd, the Kingdom of Mutawakilia in Yemen, the Kingdom of Transjordan, and the Lebanese Republic, but Najd does not have to stand in line. They are the United States system, and Transjordan and Lebanon can only be with Egypt and Syria because of their location, even if they do not fall to the Soviet Union, after all, they have a common enemy. As for the kingdom of Mutawakiliya in Yemen, the country is not worth mentioning, and the south is under British rule, and Aiden is preparing to make a South Arab federation of the six small sultans there as well.

As for the rest of the Middle East, it was a British protectorate. Oman is divided into two parts, one is the Sultanate of Muscat and the other is the Imam of Oman, the former is the British protectorate, and the latter is the separatist power that they fought for through their own uprising, no one recognizes them, but they are not under the control of the British. Other Qatar, Kuwait. Bahrain is a British protectorate, and the emaciated camel of Britain is indeed bigger than a horse. Just watch them retreat all over the world, but if you look closely, there are still goods in people's pockets!

The establishment of the Gulf Cooperation Organization (GCC) has not caused much turmoil in the world, and anyway, the world is like this, and those who should stand for the cold war will always take sides. It was the negotiations between Britain and the Soviet Union over their air war that attracted more attention.

The end of the Suez Canal War does not mean that the matter between them is over.

However, this time the United States finally got a chance to perform, and Eisenhower personally mediated the two sides to negotiate in Washington, which finally brought down the matter after some exchange of spit. Anyway, this air battle was fought in Egyptian airspace, and it is not a question of who invades whom. Although the Soviet fighters were invited to visit, but the visit was not military support, it was wrong for them to fire first, of course, it was not right for British fighters to appear in Alexandria, anyway, everyone was at fault, then each took a step back, the Soviet Union compensated Britain for its losses, Britain compensated for the Soviet Union's losses, and it was over, and no one could really throw nuclear bombs at each other for this.

In short, this short war, and the crisis it caused, ended at last, but its effects were just beginning.

An arms race, an arms race on a larger scale.

In January, less than a month after the end of the war, in order to salvage the image of Soviet weapons damaged by the war, the Soviet Union officially unveiled its latest fighter jet, the MiG-21 with a maximum speed of Mach 21, and announced that this fighter would enter service by the end of the year.

"It will fly like a proud swift in the sky of freedom, with the lightning of justice, tearing apart the clouds of imperial righteousness!"

That's how the Soviet Pravda newspaper described the fighter.

Not only that, the Soviet government also announced that it would organize a delegation to participate in this year's air show in Paris, and their latest Mia 4 strategic bomber will participate in this air show, which is a jet strategic bomber, although it has participated in the military parade on Red Square, and it has also been exhibited at the Tushino air show, but it is the first time to fly to a foreign exhibition, and it is clear that the Soviet government wants to show the world their real strength, and at the same time let those little brothers know how powerful their boss is.

When the news spread, all the Social Workers countries cheered, and even Xinhua, who had already begun to have a little unpleasant with them, congratulated Big Brother.

However, their cheers did not last long, and less than 24 hours later, the US government announced that their first and the world's first two-Mach class fighter, the F104 Battlestar, had officially begun to be delivered to the Air Force.

And the New York Times also accompanied by several photos of the fighter in service.

The Soviets, who were slapped in the face, instantly dumbfounded.

It is clear that there is an essential difference between those who are about to enter service and those who are already in service.

Of course, they don't know that the Mi people are actually lying, although the F104 Battlestar has entered mass production, but the first batch of real service will not be delivered until the end of the year, they are just brushing a batch of trial production models with the paint of the Mi Air Force, but the F104 Battlestar will still rush to serve in front of the MiG-21, because the Soviet Union also lied, and theirs cannot be put into service at the end of the year.

But the United States government is not the only fighter in public service, and the F104 Battlestar is in public service, as well as their first supersonic carrier-based aircraft Crusader, and in order to prove its authenticity, the United States TV also released the picture of this fighter taking off and landing on the Forrest aircraft carrier, although this carrier-based aircraft may not be able to surpass the Tiger Shark, but at least the level of the carrier-based aircraft of the United States has been raised to the same level.

You must know that the maximum speed of this carrier-based aircraft can reach close to Mach 2, which is stronger than the Tiger Shark, and it is also larger than the Tiger Shark, can carry more fuel, has all-weather combat capabilities, and has the latest fire control radar, infrared tracking loading, carrying Sidewinder air-to-air missiles, all performance is according to the same standard of the Tiger Shark.

And unlike the original history, this crusader also has four wing pylons, which can carry up to six rattlesnakes, it can be said that the service of this carrier-based aircraft allows the US Navy to finally raise its head in front of Britain, France and Ming, and no longer need an 80,000-ton aircraft carrier or even dare to provoke a 30,000-ton aircraft carrier.

It is said that the naval aviation of the United States has been miserable in recent years, and it has the largest aircraft carrier formation in the world, but it has to retreat in front of those countries that only have one or two aircraft carriers.

But the domineering side leakage of the rice people did not end, and it was only less than twenty-four hours later that they released their second big move.

ABC at the invitation of the United States government, played the latest supersonic bomber B58 test flight picture, when the TV screen of this elegant large bomber, in the sky hit a dazzling sound cone, the whole world screamed, supersonic bomber, this is a supersonic bomber!

However, this is not just supersonic, soon as the test flight progressed, the B58 bomber that broke through the sound barrier flew faster and faster, and it didn't take long for the female reporter reporting on the scene to scream in a crazy voice: "Two Machs, two Mach bombers!" ”

Just as her shouting stopped, the whole world was stunned.

Two Mach bombers!

Oh my God, the two-Mach bomber, when the two-Mach fighter was just put into service, the people of the United States actually built a two-Mach bomber, what is domineering, this is called domineering!

However, the carnival of the people of the United States did not last long, and they soon learned that in fact, two Mach 2 was useless, because just 24 hours after the test flight of the B58 was broadcast, the Kunpeng Aircraft Company also held an open flight show of the latest fighter ghost at Yingtian Air Base.

Under the watchful eyes of more than 100,000 spectators, including reporters from various countries stationed in Yingtian, this huge fighter pierced the air like lightning in the sky, and under the impetus of two powerful engines with more than eight tons of thrust, it soon used that terrifying whistling sound and a brand-new number to announce who was the king of the sky.

Mach 2.4!

The whole world is crazy, everyone is dumbfounded and looking at this number, two .four times the speed of sound, a fighter that can almost catch up with the speed of a cannonball, you guys still don't let people live! In other words, even the Mi Guoren and the bald man were stunned, although the ghost fighter is a public project, but Yang Feng only publicly said that it was at the Mach two level, but he didn't say that he was running for 2.5, you are not kind!

However, it didn't take long for the bald man, whose face was swollen, to throw out a lore in annoyance, and at the Baikonur Cosmodrome, a sharp sword that spewed flames pierced the sky and fell to the target area after flying more than 6,000 kilometers.

The first Soviet and the world's first intercontinental missile, the P7, was successfully launched.

Well, it's a lore indeed! (To be continued.) )
