On March 11, 1985, in the whole world, a major event occurred that shook China and the West. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧ ◎ Baidu Search: Super Fast Hand Hit Update.paitxt.◎
The General Secretary of the Soviet Union, Chernenko, died, and the new leader of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev, officially became the First General Secretary of the Soviet Union, and he became the head of this Red Empire.
How will the Soviet Union go after Gorbachev comes to power? The whole world is watching.
In contrast, the news released by Iraq's oil minister in the Middle East has not received so much attention.
Iraq's oil workers are already very tired due to the recent increase in oil production, and the full speed of Iraq's oil industry has also brought new security problems, and Iraq needs to gradually reduce oil production in order to make Iraq's oil industry run more healthily.
At present, the international oil industry has long been saturated, and no one in the futures market wants to speculate on short- and medium-term oil futures that are less than $10 a barrel.
In this case, the obscure institutions in the East once again began a new operation, and with the funds they had already accumulated, they were able to empty the futures on the market, because, they knew, the price of crude oil was about to begin to rise. ≦≧
Subsequently, Saudi Arabia and other countries began to reduce production, and the increase in production beyond their production capacity could last for several months, but it must not last forever.
Therefore, although the United States is somewhat dissatisfied, they are also unable to criticize Saudi Arabia and other countries harshly, let them continue to increase production, American oil companies, has been waiting, British Petroleum still can't hold on, throw out one-tenth of Texas shares, to help them tide over the difficulties, this batch of shares, immediately divided by American oil companies.
At the same time, an agreement that was scolded by countless Britons as a traitor was somehow leaked in Britain. When the British Secretary of State for Energy was on a mission to Iraq. An agreement was signed with the other side that did not benefit the UK at all, and the energy secretary had a hard time arguing and accepting questions from the media all day long.
Iraq's actions were swift, Iraqi funds entered Britain, acquired shares in several important British companies, and now Britain is pursuing the short-term process of privatizing a large number of state-owned enterprises, and Britain has allowed Iraqi funds, and Qusay naturally will not refuse this kind of offer. ≦≧ help British businesses weather their difficult times, it is incumbent upon Qusay to do so.
Moreover, because BP has been injured a lot in this struggle, in addition to selling part of the shares in Texas, Britain has also sold 5 percent of its shares in Oman, which was taken by Kusai first.
Recent. Qusay is in a good mood. Especially today.
At the duli armoured regiment's garrison range, north of Baghdad, Qusay was inspecting with interest the target training of his most trusted armoured unit.
Ali's armored regiment, which played a great role in the last suppression of the rebellion in Baghdad, was still stationed in the original garrison and played the task of protecting the security of Baghdad.
Ali's main armament is still their original T-72 tank. It's just that the fire control system of this tank has been improved by Iraq, and it has the same excellent imaging night vision device and other equipment as the new T-72 tank produced from the production line.
Ali, who had a big belly, smiled as he watched Cusay get out of the car and immediately greeted him.
"President Qusay. ≦≧ welcome you to visit. Ali said.
"Our troops have transferred a group of soldiers to supplement other armored divisions, and the combat effectiveness has not decreased, right?" Qusay said.
"Of course not, most of the new soldiers have a junior high school education, which is better than my old ones, and they can quickly master their weapons when they use them." Ali said.
Because of the increasing proportion of advanced weapons in the Iraqi army, and because the results of education in Iraq have already been revealed, Qusay also has to thank his father Saddam Hussein, and almost all of the newly recruited soldiers have a junior high school education.
Therefore, Ali found that this part of the newly recruited people, cāo made new equipment, and soon became more skilled than the veterans.
On a T-72 tank next to it, several tankmen were handing new shells from the truck into the tank from the top of the tank.
"Amir, you've done a great job this time." Qusay said to the people around him.
Amir got the first batch of weapons from the Soviet Union, and the barrels have been shipped to the tank factory to be loaded on the new tanks, and the shells have been assigned to the 1st, 4th, and 60th armored divisions of Jingrui, of which the first two armored divisions were originally equipped with T-72 tanks imported from the Soviet Union, and the 60th armored division was gradually equipped with T-72 tanks produced by Iraq. ≦≧
The Duli Panzer Regiment, which mainly maintains stability in Baghdad, did not need to use the most advanced ammunition, so this time it was only a hundred of these shells for the Soviet Union's own use.
After hearing that the Duli Panzer Regiment was equipped with smuggled artillery shells, Qusai suddenly became very interested, and took Amir, who was reporting to him on the mission of this mission, to the nearest station of the Duli Panzer Regiment to see the effect of such shells.
Ali personally got into the T-72 tank, and this time, since President Qusay personally inspected it, it was natural for him to perform it himself.
Two kilometers away, there were already several simulated targets stuck there, this time just to test the power of the tank gun, so those targets were composed of homogeneous steel plates, divided into two types: 400 mm and 600 mm thick.
"Ready, an armor-piercing bullet. ≦≧" Ali pointed the fire control system at the target while giving the order to the gun commander.
The automatic loader turned, and an armor-piercing bullet that slapped first was stuffed into the chamber.
This is a steel-core armor-piercing projectile originally equipped by Iraq, and it is aimed at a target with a 400-millimeter steel plate.
"Boom!" The moving body trembled, and when the shells were fired just now, they did not stop, and now that they have the ability to attack while moving, they have to give full play to the maximum potential of their equipment.
Then, the barrel of the cannon was automatically lowered to 4.5 degrees, the projectiles and cartridges were lifted by the bullet lifter, the bomb pusher was stuffed into the barrel, and then another shell was fired.
Qusay watched the tank's performance through a telescope and was quite satisfied, they were firing in the middle of the process, and the interval between the two shells was less than ten seconds, while the theoretical speed of the T-72 was eight rounds per minute.
Although he knew that this kind of tank shè attack was done by the most well-trained people, he also knew that since Ali could reach this level as a tank, then every group of tankmen in the armored regiment had this level and Ali's ability, he knew.
I've got a spiky head, and I'm going to drill in hard!
The first steel-core armor-piercing projectile, after drilling out of the barrel, flew in a near-straight line, and soon, it accurately hit its own target, and Ali's gun commander aimed very accurately.
It's a hard-fought battle! The steel core of the armor-piercing bullet is stuffing inward, and the steel plate is also trying to block the penetration of this thing, and the speed of the steel core is getting smaller and smaller, and it is becoming more and more difficult to wear.
Finally, when it was about to come out, when the tail of the steel plate was already a little bulging, the steel core armor-piercing bullet could not penetrate, and it was helplessly left on it.
Then, another tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullet flew in front of his target, the 600 mm thick steel plate, which was a piece of steel more than half a meter thick! The armor-piercing bullet kept drilling inward, drilling inward, and its pointed tip, easily piercing into the steel plate, continued to move forward.
Suddenly, it felt a loosening of the top of its head, and it had passed through the steel plate, and at this time, it also exhausted its last strength, and the back half of its body was left in the steel plate.
Ali's tank drove all the way to the target, and what he was most afraid of was that his shell would not hit, in which case, he would be looked down upon by President Qusay.
Of course, on the other hand, this new armor-piercing projectile is said to be extremely powerful, but he still does not believe that it can penetrate a steel plate 600 mm thick, which is a distance of 2,000 meters!
When he jumped out of the tank, he was stunned.
The armor-piercing projectiles that his own equipment did not wear the 400 mm thick steel plate, which he was already mentally prepared for, and he was familiar with all the data of the tanks that had been equipped with his armored units for several years.
However, another imported armor-piercing bullet seems to be too perverted, right? That's a 600-millimetre-thick steel plate! The tip that had been exposed, as if sneering at the armor-piercing bullet next to it. Look, the gap between our own use and exports, the Soviet Union, is quite huge!
Subsequently, Qusay rode in the field car and came to the target, and when he saw this amazing comparison result, he was also very shocked, the gap between what the Soviet Union provided for foreign countries and what it used for its own use was too big, right?
If Iraq had had been a weapon used by the Soviet Army in the Gulf War in the future, it would not have made the reputation of the T-72 stinky, right?
At a distance of two thousand meters and a depth of 600 millimeters, this is only a tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile, and if it is a Soviet depleted uranium armor-piercing projectile, I am afraid it will be even more perverted.
"Amir, you've done us a great job!" Qusay said.
"President, you see, this kind of armor-piercing shells are only equipped with a hundred for us, and they are distributed to each tank, which is only a single digit, is it possible to equip us with another batch?" Ali said.
"Then it's up to our armament minister." Qusay said. This experiment strengthened his determination to move back to the Soviet Union, and how many good things were in the Soviet arsenal!
Just as Qusay was lamenting about the original Soviet weapons, he did not know that in another place, a major event had taken place that threatened Iraq's interests.
