Chapter 168: Jacques-38

Mhammad is a powerful figure, he was born in the army, and on the battlefield in Afghanistan, he single-handedly created the Free Army of Afghanistan, such a figure, even if he is only a brigadier general now, no one will underestimate him.

In the deal with Mhammad, the Americans first suffered a loss, and used a lot of things to exchange for such a backfire, and later, the Americans got back the bargain, and they used the most primitive E-2A to fool Mhammad, of course, this is also completely in line with the deal, after all, the deal does not specify what kind of E-2, the United States cannot rebuild two for Pakistan, and it is impossible to send two aircraft from the aircraft carrier aircraft wing in active service in the United States to them.

The Americans were even feeling a little uneasy at first, after the E-2A flew to Peshawar Air Base, they were still waiting for the anger from Mhammad, at least the ambassador of the US Embassy in Pakistan, who was ready to patiently persuade Mhammad when the time came, which was a misunderstanding between the two sides.

However, Mhammad did not react at all, except for a few complaints to John, who remained at Peshawar Air Base, and there was no follow-up.

The Americans breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Mhammad is also very knowledgeable, he knows that he is a little greedy, those things, in fact, there are a lot, that backfire, at most it is just a replacement of a Black Hawk, but he asked for so much.

Four or five days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the ground crew at Peshawar Air Base is working hard to maintain the fighters.

The Americans are reluctant to do the work, they mainly guide, guide the maintenance of Pakistani ground crews. At the same time, it will also help Pakistani personnel to quickly master the maintenance of the warplanes, which they are also willing to do.

When a truck arrived, it immediately caught the attention of those present, it was a Soviet military vehicle, and this car was on the door. It was also sprayed with Soviet text.

Suddenly, they saluted the car and watched it drive into a hangar.

"What's that?" The Americans present could not help but be very curious.

"Secret." Looking at the soldiers guarding next to the hangar, the rest of the ground crew said.

Then, another car drove up, and Chief of Staff Mhammad got out of the car. Walked into the hangar.

"Osama, you've done a great job!" Looking at the ripped canvas, Mhammad's eyes lit up, just looking at the semi-circular air intakes on both sides, you can know that it is indeed the Yak-38, when it takes off and lands vertically, it has to inhale more air, and it cannot be inhaled by guΓ² forward flight, so it can only increase the area of the air intake. This also leads to its large windward area, which makes it impossible to fly at supersonic speeds.

"Your Excellency Mhammad, it's a pleasure to see you." If it weren't for this opportunity, Osama would not have come to Peshawar after being in the mountains of Afghanistan.

Osama's joy is heartfelt, and despite Hammad's departure, the Free Afghan Army's loyalty has not changed.

"Yes, Osama. I'm also glad to meet you. Mhammad said, "That's right, go back this time." You can transport something, promises to the Iranians, we can fulfill them for the time being. ”

Although there are Americans in the base, the initiative is still in the hands of Mhammad, spare parts for those fighters. Mahmad is at his disposal, and the Americans will not go to the warehouse.

This cash-out can ease the tight finances. The arrival of these fighters, just the necessary expenses such as fuel, has stretched Pakistan to the limit. And in order to quickly train pilots, the flight time of the fighter is very long.

"No problem." "Those people have urged me several times, and I will transport it to the western border, pay the money first, and then inspect the goods, and I will not let them play tricks," Osama said. ”

If you dare to play tricks with Osama, you will die even worse, and Mhammad is definitely not worried.

"Your Excellency Mhammad, what kind of plane are we transporting?" Osama looked at the plane and asked Mhammad.

"Carrier-based fighters of the Soviets." Mhammad said, "Jacques-38."

Carrier-based fighters? There are no aircraft carriers in Afghanistan, so what did the Soviets do with these planes in Afghanistan? Osama was very surprised and wanted to continue asking, but saw that Mhammad had already commanded the people and began to unload the fighter.

The plane weighed just over six tons, lighter than a truck, and although there was no crane, the incoming technicians erected an inclined plane with steel plates behind the truck, loosened the fixed wire rope, and slowly pushed the plane down.

Then, start installing the wings on both sides.

When it was installed, they found out that the wings of this aircraft are special and can be folded to both sides, which also proves that it is a carrier-based fighter. Folding saves valuable space inside the aircraft carrier.

"You can't go in, this is a confidential hangar." The voices of the guards were heard outside.

"Don't you know me? I'm John, you're a friend, and I want to see Chief of Staff Mhammad. ”

"That's not going to work, please stay away."

"Do you treat your friends like that?"

"I'm sorry, I only have orders in my head."

Mhammad snickered in his heart, and sure enough, he attracted this John.

Seeing that the wings on both sides were ready, Mhammad walked outside.

"Crunch." Seeing the hangar door open, John looked inside through the crack in the door, and when he saw the plane inside, he was immediately shocked. Then, he saw Mhammad come out of the crack in the door.

"Chief of Staff Mhammad, I'm looking for you in a hurry." John said: "On the maintenance side of the Tomcat. ”

Mhammad nodded: "These, just find Commander Arslan, I'm still busy." ”

After that, Mhammad was going back.

"Chief of Staff Mhammad, we are allies now, excuse me, can I go in and have a look?" John couldn't take care of it at this time, the things in it were so tempting.

Mhammad put his chin on his hand, pondered for a moment, and finally said: "You are our friend, you can come in, but you have to abide by the principle of secrecy, which is a good thing we got from the battlefield in Afghanistan." ”

"Okay, I will." John said, glaring at the guards on either side with vicious eyes, and followed Mhammad inside.

Under the lights in the hangar, I saw the plane that was not very large. John's heart kept pounding, Jacques-38! Yak-38!

In order to prevent the Soviets from owning aircraft carriers, the United States began to fool around, advertising that its large aircraft carriers were too expensive, too expensive, and easy to destroy in wartime. The British began to develop small Invincible-class aircraft carriers, and in this case, the pace of the Soviets to build aircraft carriers was very slow.

Those helicopter carriers are just empty shells, nothing to be afraid of, and then the Kiev-class has vertical take-off and landing fighters, and the American side very much wants to get this kind of aircraft.

No airport, vertical take-off and landing. This is the dream of many aircraft shooters, the British came true, they had the Harrier, even the United States bought a batch, and the Soviets also realized it, it was this Yak-38!

How does this fighter perform, combat radius. Bomb load and the like, are what the Americans are most interested in. They prefer to master the technology of this fighter and use it to develop their own vertical take-off and landing fighters.

When the aircraft carrier formations of the United States and the Soviets encounter each other on the ocean, they will encounter this kind of carrier-based fighter at the same time, and only by understanding the enemy can they better strike at the enemy.

And. This fighter is so complete that it doesn't need to be repaired and can fly back into the sky!

John walked around the plane and could see that it was a structure with a lift engine, behind the pilot. There are nozzles under the fuselage, combined with the nozzles in the tail that can be turned down, and together they can jet downward, so that the aircraft can take off vertically, and at the same time, with so many engines, the fuel consumption must be huge, will the pilot be uncomfortable with the heat there? John was very interested in this qiΔ“.

"Chief of Staff Mhammad, this is really a good thing." John said: "It is of no use to you to stay here, why don't you give us the United States?" This was obtained from the battlefield in Afghanistan, and we in the United States have strongly supported the liberation cause of the Afghan people by supporting a large number of weapons. ”

This is different from Backfire, which was shot down by the Pakistan Air Force, and this Yak-38 was obtained from the battlefield in Afghanistan.

"Yes, you have supported a large number of weapons and given them to the warriors of Afghanistan, and they are using these weapons to fight the Soviets, and at the same time they are helping your country, because the enemy of your country is the Soviet Union, so the two sides are even, you pay for weapons, and the Afghans pay for blood and lives." Muhammad's eyes looked at John and he said, "What do you think?" ”

This is in the interests of both sides, and if the Americans are really so kind, why don't they support those countries in Africa that are at war?

"Moreover, now that the plane has been transported to the Peshawar Military District, it belongs to us." "This is a testament to our friendship with Afghanistan," Mhammad said. ”

John knew that he was too naΓ―ve just now, and he said to Mhammad: "Chief of Staff Mhammad, then we can exchange, what do you think?" ”

"We've already swapped once." "We are very grateful to our U.S. allies for this exchange," Mhammad said. ”

Allies and thanks, Mhammad spoke very seriously, with discontent in his words.

"I'm sorry, you've seen too much, please don't tell the secret here." Mhammad gave the eviction order: "Now, you can go." ”

John looked helpless, he knew that in the last exchange, the United States used the E-2A in stock to fool the Pakistanis, and the person directly responsible in front of him was already angry. This matter cannot be solved by oneself, and it must be discussed by the ambassador and the report to the country. (To be continued......)
