Chapter 114: Saudi Arabia Negotiations

readx;

Iraq, and the United States jointly held military exercises! Looking at that photo, which made the headlines of all the newspapers, and had already rushed to the US Navy's twin aircraft carrier formation outside the Gulf of Oman, I felt that I had no idea where to start. Pen&Fun&Pavilion www.biquge.info{{}}

In the photo, a fighter plane that has never been seen before in the outside world, carrying two very conspicuous anti-ship missiles, flies over the deck of the aircraft carrier.

This is the last J-7 fighter, the camera it carried, the photos taken, this photo, so that the United States powerful navy, actually did not know how to deal with it.

Exposing the lies of the Iraqis to the media? This is very simple, now, the outside world's suspicion of this photo is also very strong, the motive is not right, the US Navy is here, it is here to find trouble with the Arabs, how can it suddenly turn 180 degrees in attitude and turn into an exercise with the Iraqis?

However, this photo, even if it has undergone the most special technical processing, does not mean that it is forged, and the computer programs of later generations are so advanced that the forged photo can still be recognized as processed, not to mention the current technology, this photo is indeed taken for real. {{}}

So, how does the US Navy explain it? Your own aircraft carrier formation was swaggered in by the other side, and then, swaggering away? Under the wings of the opponent, anti-ship missiles are mounted! This will simply make the US Navy a laughing stock for the whole world.

thought they were extremely powerful, but as a result, more than a dozen battleships, as well as the Aegis battleships, didn't even notice it, and the other party flew above their heads!

If it is admitted that it is a joint exercise, then how can it use its own force again?

Ted, the captain of the USS Carl Vinson, was facing torment in his heart at this time, and those few warplanes crossed his deck, which was simply the greatest shame since he served.

"Our F-14 fighter jets, which have flown to the area of the Arab exercises, were intercepted by the Iraqi Mirage 4000, and now, the two sides are flying together." A message came up from the pre-jing.

After more than 20 warplanes took off from the two aircraft carriers, the Iraqi Air Force also took off a large number of warplanes, all of which were heavy air supremacy fighters. {{}}

From the bubble cockpit, pilots on both sides can see each other's pilots and even see each other's expressions.

The U.S. Navy's F-14 fighter jets are one of the most powerful heavy fighters in the United States, and they carry the Immortal Bird missile, Sparrow missile, and Sidewinder missile, which are marked Xing, and this kind of air superiority mount is to show off to the Iraqi Air Force.

In contrast, the Iraqi Air Force only mounted the medium-range sky flash missile and the short-range R-73 missile, at present, the United States still does not know, Iraq has completed the R-73 missile, an excellent short-range large off-axis fire shè combat missile, integrated into the Mirage 4000 work, if it really enters the close-range dogfight, although the F-14's maneuverability Xing is unmatched, but the advantage of the R-73 missile and helmet sight can allow the Mirage 4000 to take the lead.

The Iraqis have long been prepared, and although Iraq does not have the strength of carrier-based fixed-wing fighters, the advanced land-based aviation units possessed by Iraq have made the Americans dare not make any changes. {{}}

At the same time, the Saudi Air Force also took off an E-3 pre-jing aircraft to monitor the situation in the air, and when necessary, the Saudi Air Force will also take off two squadrons of F-15 fighters to give the Iraqi Air Force a strong preference.

After the Saudi Air Force's E-3 pre-jing plane appeared in the sky, the situation faced by the US Navy suddenly began to become complicated, and according to the pre-plan, they will dispatch EA-6B electronic jamming planes to release strong electromagnetic interference, so that the Iraqi naval formation will have a taste of being disturbed.

But now, after the first wave of warplanes, they are starting to be careful, because they have to think more about Iraq and especially Saudi Arabia.

The capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.

"This time, the Iraqi Navy's exercise was very spectacular, in particular, the Hyundai-class destroyer, the missile that fired the shè, actually exceeded twice the speed of sound, and when the shè missile was fired, there was no helicopter relay guidance, and the US Navy may be difficult to intercept this missile. {{}}" In the palace, the Minister of National Defense, Prince Sultan, said with a smile.

Although he really wanted to personally board the Saudi warship and follow the whole exercise, he was afraid that his body would not be able to bear it if there were still wind and waves on the sea and the back and forth were bumpy back and forth. However, the officer on the warship broadcast the entire exercise to him almost the entire time.

Listening to Prince Sultan's words, King Fahd also had a smile on his face, he was already holding a newspaper in his hand, and the photo in the newspaper showed the fighter planes of the Iraqi Navy flying over the deck of the aircraft carrier.

Qusay is really bold, and the US Navy came this time to demonstrate to Iraq, but until now, it has been Iraq that has demonstrated to the United States.

Flying over an American aircraft carrier, how did the Iraqis do it? That is a symbol of US force, and every time the United States strikes a foreign attack, the navy plays the leading role, and the aircraft carrier is an expression of the Americans' force.

King Fahd felt that even if one day, there was a real conflict with the United States, and Qusay would definitely not let him down. The future of the Arab world is to become the center of the globe, and their currency will be popular all over the world. King Fahd was not originally a very powerful person, but he was an Arab, and he was very happy to see the strength of his own nation.

"If this time, the United States stops arms sales to us and detains the fighters that we have not yet delivered, then we will fully turn to Iraq, and Iraqi-made weapons are more suitable for our Middle East terrain, especially this kind of fighter planes flying over US aircraft carriers, we in Saudi Arabia should also buy a batch." Prince Sultan said.

Thinking about the Iraqi planes that can fly over the other side's aircraft carriers, Prince Sultan is full of curiosity about this kind of fighter.

Not only Prince Sultan, but the whole world is full of curiosity about this kind of fighter, this kind of fighter, it seems that they have never seen it before.

After that, they finally learned that this kind of fighter is a kind of fighter-bomber that has just been successfully developed and equipped by Iraq and the big countries in the east, which has a combat radius of 1,600 kilometers and can carry anti-ship missiles, cruise missiles, and other guided weapons.

"Now, although the US aircraft carrier group is close to the exercise area of our navy, the two sides have not directly clashed, and the Iraqi air force has taken off several Mirage 4000 fighters, and the two sides have not confronted each other." Prince Sultan continued.

"Kusai did a good job." King Fahd said: "The Americans did not play a role in this move, then, the next move, will definitely come to us." ”

"Your Majesty, the special plane of the US Secretary of State has arrived at the Riyadh airport, and it will arrive at the palace in about half an hour."

Hearing the briefing, King Fahd smiled, this time, the United States is a big move, for this matter, even the secretary of state came over, but in the seventies, it was under the lobbying of the US secretary of state that Saudi Arabia made a policy of using dollars to settle oil.

When the US Secretary of State came here, his first stop was not Iraq, but Saudi Arabia, and he wanted to open a breakthrough from Saudi Arabia.

King Fahd guessed perfectly. What happened in the Arabian Sea, an emergency meeting was held in the United States, and after the meeting, the secretary of state rushed to the other side of the ocean to lobby the Saudis.

According to the pre-established strategy, the Saudis also know what role they will take on in this regard.

It is very unwise to have a head-on conflict with the United States, and now, the strength of the Arabs is not strong enough, but it must not be under the authority of the United States, so Iraq has taken a tough attitude and has carried out a-for-tat show of force against the aircraft carrier group that has arrived from the United States.

And then, the United States had to step down, this time because the United States wanted Saudi Arabia to buy a large number of US Treasury bonds, and at the same time, to block the joint monetary plan of the Arab countries. In this regard, Saudi Arabia needs to make appropriate compromises. Saudi Arabia can invest another part of the purchase of government bonds, and the monetary plan must be carried out, but it can promise the United States that no matter how it develops in the future, Saudi Arabia's basic policy will not change, that is, to settle oil in dollars.

Let the United States rest assured first, and then talk about it, even if it is a war, it will eventually have to be resolved through negotiations. As for the agreement, the signed agreement was meant to be destroyed. Are Americans signing fewer agreements? The Americans will tear up the agreement at any time, and in this world, whoever is strong is just.

This wasn't George's first trip to the Middle East, but it was definitely the first time he didn't have enough confidence.

The Saudis, will they agree to the conditions of the United States? Now, there is no doubt that Saudi Arabia has sided with Iraq, and the powerful display of force by the Americans has turned into a nondescript situation, with Iraqis taking the lead everywhere.

He came this time to have two major things, so that Saudi Arabia can buy more US Treasury bonds, avoid the stock market crisis, and let Saudi Arabia abandon the idea of a joint currency. And the formations at sea are also waiting for this trip of his, and if the consequences are not ideal, then they do not mind the outbreak of some conflict.

The Iraqis are just playing tricks, and if there is a real conflict, Iraq's military strength will not be comparable to that of the United States at all. (To be continued.)
