With the return of Reye's plane from the Black Sea, another Hyundai-class destroyer ordered by the Iraqi Navy has also embarked on the road to return home. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo{{}}

In the face of the changing situation in the world, Qusay knew that he could not wait any longer and had to speed up, so in 87, another modern-class unforgettable, which was abandoned by the Soviet Navy, was funded by Iraq and completed the follow-up construction plan.

The cycle of this ship is a bit long, because, in the process of construction, Iraq has modified this warship according to its own standards, which is the same as the current use of the Iraqi Navy, and moreover, the addition of electronic equipment has led to a longer cycle.

After entering the Iraqi Navy, this warship will continue to improve their naval level.

At the same time, another brand-new large dreadnought-class anti-submarine ship ordered by Iraq was also launched this year and is expected to enter service within two years.

Moreover, Iraq is negotiating with the Soviet side the issue of importing Dreadnought-3 destroyers, which are specialized air defense destroyers equipped with four-sided phased array radars, which Iraq urgently needs now, but the Soviet Union is still somewhat conservative on this issue, and Iraq is working hard to tackle key problems. {{}}

Iraq also requested the purchase of the larger Glorious, but it was still under consideration by the Soviet leadership.

At the same time, at Iraq's own shipyards, work is underway on the construction of a frigate with a full load displacement of almost four thousand tons. This frigate is a warship that Iraq has absorbed the specialties of the East and the West, summed up the advantages and disadvantages of its own ships, hired technicians from the Soviet Union, China, France and other countries, and finally started construction after nearly a year and a half of design.

This warship uses diesel-fuel combined power, diesel engines from Germany, and gas turbines from the Soviet Union, which allows this warship to sail at a maximum range of 33 knots, and in terms of shipborne firepower, it uses SA-N-9 vertical-fire ship-to-air missiles on the Dreadnought class for air. There are six missile firing bays on the ship, each with eight missiles, and the whole ship has 48 bombs in reserve, with a range of 15 kilometers and Mach 2. Two "Cross Sword" radars can simultaneously guide 8 missiles against 4 air targets, and have a certain ability to resist saturation attacks. The same top-plate three-coordinate radar is used for air search as the modern class. There are also 4 AK-63O 6-barreled 3OMM guns at short range.

On the ship side. Iraq's own anti-ship missiles were used. {{}} absorbs the line-of-sight radar system on the modern class to provide better guidance capabilities for the missile.

In terms of submarine, it mainly uses French hull sonar, towed body sonar and other equipment, so that its anti-submarine performance is also excellent, and it carries an anti-submarine helicopter.

The entire warship adopted a stealth design, adopting some of the design ideas of the stealth missile boats built by Iraq itself.

This is Iraq's first bold attempt, and the risks are very high, however. Once successful, Iraq will be able to have a frigate with moderate anti-aircraft, anti-submarine and anti-ship capabilities, and if it is successfully built, it will allow Iraq's shipbuilding industry to make another leap forward. It will be a very difficult process, but there is no way back for Iraq, and it must rise to the occasion.

Now, since the main body of the aircraft carrier built by the Black Sea Shipyard for Iraq has been completed, only the final assembly stage remains, therefore. Many workers with experience in the manufacture of large ships returned to Iraq again, although Iraq invested a huge amount of money through this project. But the benefits are also great, for example, these experienced shipbuilders are a valuable asset.

Iraq absorbed the excellent subsystems of Soviet ships, such as anti-aircraft radar, anti-aircraft missiles and other subsystems, which made great progress in Iraq's technology. {{}}

If the construction of this warship goes well, then Iraq will continue to work on the construction of four warships of the same class, and then consider the construction of destroyers with a larger displacement.

While the aviation industry has been greatly developed in Iraq, Iraq's shipbuilding industry is also about to usher in a peak moment.

Baghdad, Iraq, 4 April 1991.

In a large conference room on the second floor of the Palace of the Republic, a group of men dressed in traditional Arabic attire are holding an important meeting.

The meeting was attended by core personnel from Arab countries. King Sultan of Saudi Arabia, Emir Jaber of Kuwait, King Hussein of Jordan, President Bashar of Syria, and the hosts, President Qusay-Abdullah of Iraq.

"The United States is ready, and the first batch of troops will be stationed at the 6th Army base in Yotvata in a few days." King Hussein said: "We must have a solution to this situation, which is an act of the Americans, seriously interfering in the internal affairs of our Arab world." {{}}”

The Americans are behind the scenes, secretly supporting Israel, even if it is, now, they are blatantly stationing troops in Israel, then, the nature has completely changed.

This means that when there is a war, such as the previous wars in the Middle East, the Arabs and the Jews are fighting, but now, it is a direct confrontation with the Americans.

In this world, the Americans are undoubtedly very powerful, so powerful that they can hardly imagine confronting the Americans head-on

Possibly.

"Yes, we have to do something, we have to show Americans that we are definitely not being bullied by them." Bashar also said: "This is the world of our Arabs, Jews, get out of it a long time ago!" ”

Jordan felt a personal threat, while Bashar was young and vigorous, and both of them agreed that they had to react strongly to this matter.

As for Sultan and Jaber, the two are more cautious. If, from an international point of view, Israel agrees to the stationing of US troops and the United States enters Israel, this is a matter between the two countries, and even if they protest, they will not have any effect if they protest again.

Use this as a reason to start a war? The three of them knew in their hearts that the reason for doing this was not enough.

In the world today, the United States is still a hegemonic country and still has powerful armed forces, not to mention completely defeating the United States, even if it is fighting a local war with US troops in the Middle East, they will also have to devote all their energy to dealing with it.

In all the wars in the Middle East, Arab countries besieged Israel and lost it repeatedly.

It's not time yet.

"The stationing of American troops in Israel has seriously damaged our interests and increased the factors of instability in our Arab region, and we must have a correct way to deal with this." Qusay finally spoke.

"Yes, Abdullah, you led us through Tel Aviv and drove the Israelites into the sea." Bashar said.

Qusay shook his head: "Victory is always for those who are prepared. Our time has not yet come, and if we really break out into a full-scale conflict now, then our chances of victory are very small. ”

"Even if we have a chance of winning, we have to give nine points." Bashar said.

"Our reasons now are still not sufficient, and our actions need to stand on the stand of justice. For example, now the United States wants to impose sanctions on us in Iraq, but Western European countries do not buy it, and this is a welcome change. "If we start a war because the Americans are stationed, then there is no doubt that Western Europe will be in the camp of the United States," Qusay said. We must not confront the entire Western world, we must disintegrate the camp of the United States and Western Europe. ”

Like the Americans' thinking, the Americans want to break up the Arab unity, and each one is the right way, and the Americans also have a headache in the face of a unified Arab world.

And for Qusay, too, in the battle between the Arabs and the Israelis, the Americans will definitely get involved, and at this time, if the Western Europeans can stand by and watch, it will be the most appropriate. If Western Europeans and the United States are on the same side, then it is definitely not what Qusay wants to see, and the entire industrialization process of Iraq is inseparable from Western Europe. And if the entire Western world were to impose sanctions on the Arabs, the consequences would be terrible.

Before the Gulf War, Iraq was still one of the richest countries in the world, although it was said that the country had a lot of foreign debts, but under the leadership of the United States, all Western European countries imposed economic sanctions on Iraq, and in the end, Iraq fell into the ranks of poor countries.

At the same time, Western Europe is also inseparable from the crude oil of the Middle East and Iraq. Therefore, the appeal of the United States did not work this time, and it was also the result of the eventual integration and balance of these interests.

As long as they don't do something shocking, such as 911 in later generations, and don't arouse the world's public indignation, then many countries in Western Europe will not buy the Americans' accounts, after all, now that the Soviet Union has declined, this will make Europeans have more self-esteem and self-confidence.

In order to confront the powerful Red Empire, Western Europe had to be under the protection of the Americans, and relations with the Americans were very good. However, after the decline and disintegration of the Soviet Union, Western Europe also began to rise, and in many matters, it no longer looked at the faces of the Americans, and Western Europe knew that it could not compete with the United States by relying on one country alone, so they tended to unite to form the Greater Europe of their dreams.

Imperialism is not monolithic, and Qusay's idea is to keep the countries of Western Europe neutral in the war with the Americans.

Therefore, in the future wars, we must stand on the perspective of justice and stand on the highest peak of morality.

"Then we just sit idly by and watch the Americans flex their muscles on our soil?" King Hussein asked, he was older, and Jordan was under the most pressure, so he asked the question.

"Of course not." "In the present, war, not just military, political, economic war, is more important," Qusay said. At a time when we are not yet able to make a breakthrough militarily, economic war is one of our weapons! ”
