Chapter 517: MiG-25 in Iraq

"So, can we import your country's Lance missiles?" Bandar continued to ask. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoActually, when he proposed the Pan Xin missile, he also knew that the United States might not agree, after all, it is the key weapon of the United States in Western Europe, and it is quite powerful, but the spear missile, with a range of only 120 kilometers, should be no problem, right?

"I'm sorry, I just said that ballistic missiles cannot be exported, this is a limit for our Congress." President Carter said.

Prince Bandar suddenly had a wave of anger in his heart, Saudi Arabia's sincerity to the United States is already great enough, coordinating OPEC to increase oil production to make world oil prices fall, in order to hit the Soviet economy, this is simply self-harm! It is precisely for this reason that the Soviets blocked the exit from the Strait of Hormuz and used forceful methods to solve the current situation.

At the same time, it also provoked Saddam, and Saudi Arabia made a move to purchase ballistic missiles in order to prevent Saddam, and now, the United States not only does not export medium-range ballistic missiles, but also does not export ballistic missiles with a range of more than 100 kilometers! This is simply contempt for the existence of Saudi Arabia!

"Our A-10 attack aircraft can play a good role, can you consider buying this attack aircraft?" President Carter asked.

"I'm sorry, Mr. President, we just need ballistic missiles. Perhaps, we can make a deal with someone else. Prince Bandar left a sentence very angrily and turned away.

President Carter's hands were shaking, he obviously understood what Bandar meant, you are almost out of here, you don't agree, then wait for us to ask Reagan!

Stupid Saudis, the United States is principled, and no matter what the government, it will not export such weapons to you!

And one meaning he didn't understand was that Saudi sellers were not just Americans!

In southern Iraq, the Shubia Air Base, which is very close to the port capital Basra, is a newly built air base, and the mission of this air base is to accommodate a large team of Soviet advisers, and at the same time, there are various fighters imported from the Soviet Union, such as the most advanced MiG-25!

Historically, this airbase was not long, just after the start of the Iran-Iraq war, it was bombed by the Iranian Air Force, and in order to avoid losses, the main force of this base was transferred to H-3/Al-Waleed airbase in western Iraq.

But now, unlike history, the Iranian Air Force has been crippled by the Americans, although the Shubia Air Base is close to Iran and has not suffered much damage.

As for now, it is even more unlikely, with the cession of Khuzestan province to Iraq, it is already considered an inland part of Iraq, and there is no threat.

However, during the entire war, the Shubia Air Base did not contribute much, and that was because almost all the pilots in this base were in a state of training, because they had to master the most advanced MiG-25 fighters!

In the Far East, in Europe, the MiG-25 has shown great combat effectiveness, especially under the command of the genius General Andrei, the performance of the MiG-25 has been brought into full play, and until now, it is a sharp sword pressed on the head of the West!

However, it is not easy to fly the MiG-25 well, and the MiG-25 fighters exported by the Soviet Union to Iraq were first organized into the First Combat Reconnaissance Aircraft Squadron, and the A part of this squadron is composed of Iraqi pilots, and the B part is composed of Soviet and East German "consultant" pilots.

Throughout the war, the task of this squadron was training! Boring day-to-day training.

And today, the whole base is very lively, because, their president, Saddam Hussein, has come here to inspect! It was not only Saddam Hussein who arrived, but also a representative from the USSR, the commander of the Turkestan military district, General Andrei!

Sitting in a makeshift shed, Andrei looked through his telescope at the runway in the distance, preparing to take off and perform a flight show.

The engine in the tail has been fully opened, and in the blazing tail flame, the huge stainless steel fighter is rapidly taking off into the air.

"Yes, that's good." Andrei said: "It seems that our pilots are not lazy. ”

If someone else had said this, those present might have felt unpleasant, but now, it was General Andrei who spoke! When it comes to taking off the MiG-25, almost no one can compare with him, for example, Andrey flew from the deck of an American aircraft carrier back then! That scene made people's blood gush out, and then they were tracked by American missiles, and finally escaped safely.

"This is the first of the trainees in this training to fly solo, and at the same time, he is the first to complete a full set of training subjects." The Soviet instructor said to Andrei.

Oh? André was more interested: "Is his name Reyer?" ”

Hearing Andrei's words, everyone was stunned, including Saddam, who was extremely shocked: "General Andrei, do you still know our young man Reyer?" ”

Andrei actually just guessed, the ace in the Iraqi Air Force, Andrei only knew one Reyer, this young man was driving the MiG-25, but he didn't expect it to be really right.

As he was talking, the roar in the air continued, and this huge steel fighter began to fly the show, rolling, climbing, and moving one by one, and doing it extremely fluently.

In the past, it was often said that the MiG-25 was a high-altitude and high-speed interceptor and had no close-range combat ability, but under Andrey's control, this fighter was almost able to draw with the F-15, and it was good at giving full play to its strengths in order to achieve victory! And this real, apparently, has mastered the trick of it.

"Well done!" When the plane landed, holding a huge full-helmet helmet, Reyer, who had come to receive a speech from the president, heard a voice: "Your flying skills are already stronger than mine." ”

Reyer immediately said: "General Andrei, your flying skills are unmatched so far, in fact, I have been using you as an idol since I was flying, and you are the idol of all our MiG-25 pilots." ”

"Then Reyer, what do you think is the biggest advantage of our MiG-25?" André asked Reyer.

"In fact, it is still high-altitude and high-speed, our fighter is always the king of high altitude, we must be good at using our own advantages, if we are equipped with more suitable missiles, we are absolute air killers." Even though he was very good at flying at low altitudes, he still knew the advantages of his fighter, Reyer said. (To be continued.) )
