Chapter 231: The Art of Hegemony 7
The "Typhoon" is a model that even the Air Force and the Territorial Defense Force want, but the number of second-hand young people is limited, and the production line cannot be built for the time being. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
At most, it can maintain normal training, cope with high-intensity confrontation and local wars, and barely make ends meet, and the large-scale equipment seems to be a bit sufficient.
These "Typhoons" belong to the Saudi Air Force and belong to the top collector's edition of the model, which is more high-end than the configuration of the Anglo-German manufacturer's Air Force.
In December 1981, Pakistan ordered 40 F-16 A/B (Block 15) fighters from the United States, which is the top equipment in South Asia.
At present, the two "Fighting Falcon" squadrons have formed combat effectiveness, and of the 60 MiG-29s purchased by India from the Soviet Union, only 12 have been delivered for the time being, and the remaining 48 will be rolled off the assembly line within three years.
The second-cargo youth then analyzed: "The Indian Air Force wants to get a cheap 'Phantom', but this is simply unrealistic. A certain big country is an ally of Pakistan, and it is entirely possible to familiarize the Pakistani military with its operational characteristics through drills. Therefore, India's method of using the 'Mirage' to suppress the F-16 A / B is completely untenable, not to mention that the alliance has reached an understanding with France and will not sell it to third parties. The Typhoon is the first choice of the Indian Air Force, which is more advanced than the F-16 C/D and comparable in combat effectiveness to the F-15C/D. Aside from being a little more expensive, there are almost no drawbacks! ”
Big pineapple agrees with this point of view, but is it really feasible to let Indians buy "typhoons" with a unit price of more than 60 million US dollars?
It's not hard for a chicken to do, as long as it's like this...... It's time to finalize the deal!
Pakistan is an ally of the United States, India is alliance-oriented, and even though the third brother is very flexible in foreign policy, New Delhi still likes to procure Soviet-style weapons and equipment with no strings attached.
Since the Western media are so willing to expose the news, and are especially keen on any gossip about the Soviet Union, then it is better to do what they want.
“…… India has always been a good friend and partner of the Soviet Union, and we will work together to maintain peace and stability in South Asia, and we are happy to see the use of powerful weapons to defend this great country! The two sides will build a strategic partnership for the 21st century and open a new bright future! ”
Big pineapple's speech to welcome the third brother group made the outside world completely cloudy and foggy, and they were confused.
For this lightning visit, New Delhi also rarely chose to keep a low profile, and the content of this trip has not been disclosed to the public for the time being.
Soon, everyone saw an amazing news on TV - India will purchase twelve Tu-22M2 long-range strategic bombers!
This is the weapon that the third brother has always dreamed of, and now he has got what he wants, of course, he is busy and takes the initiative to pick up the goods.
After the Indian Air Force is equipped with a "backfire" with a range of up to 5,000 kilometers, it can threaten the hinterland of a certain major country to the east and penetrate the depth of Pakistan directly to the west.
New Delhi was very satisfied with this military purchase, and under the strong recommendation of the Soviet side (in fact, it was a bundled sale), two squadrons of "Typhoon" fighters were procured from the same level.
The total contract amount reached 100 tons of gold, equivalent to about 3.2 billion US dollars, which is definitely no less than the shocking order of Saudi Arabia for strategic missiles!
The reason why the third brother paid quickly was that all 40 fighters and 12 strategic bombers were supplied from stock, which could quickly form combat effectiveness after a year, and it was indeed worth the money.
Moreover, the alliance also gave away 40 MiG-23 attack aircraft for free, so that the other side has both the inside and the face, which is very gratifying.
After more than a dozen test flights of the "Typhoon" fighter in a row, the pilots of the Indian Air Force were full of praise for the excellent performance of this fighter, which completely surpassed the Soviet-made MiG-29 and the "Jaguar" fighter jointly developed by Britain and France.
The "Typhoon" can launch AIM-120 advanced medium-range air-to-air missiles, AGM-88 anti-radiation missiles, "Taurus" cruise missiles, AGM-119 "Penguin" anti-ship missiles, and "Brimstone" anti-armor missiles......
It can perform multiple tasks such as air supremacy, ground and sea control, and the aircraft has excellent control at high speed and vulgarity, and can achieve supersonic patrol like the F-22 without turning on the afterburner.
In the words of the seller, the technology of the "Typhoon" is more than 20 years ahead of Europe and the United States, and it can make the Indian Air Force so strong in South Asia that there is no enemy at all!
At the beginning, the three brothers were quite disdainful of this sentence, but when they saw the production date on the missile, they all suddenly realized that the "story of a visitor from time and space" was by no means a lie, so they were overjoyed......
In addition to the fact that the price is a little expensive, there are almost no shortcomings, a single aircraft can withstand three or four F-16 A/B, and the combat effectiveness of 40 "Typhoons" is equivalent to 120-160 "Fighting Falcons".
Although it is an exaggeration, it is certain that the F-16 A/B is the basic model of its series, which does not support over-the-horizon air combat and cannot launch medium-range air-to-air missiles.
I dare not say that it is more than 50 kilometers, but the "typhoon" can shoot down the "Fighting Falcon" at a distance of 30 kilometers, and this certainty is still relatively large.
The sale of such advanced fighters in batches of dozens of fighters will cause a chain reaction, but whatever!
A few are happy, a few are sad!
How to solve the problem?
Only Du Kang~!
I did it, you feel free!
***********************************
Washington never dreamed that revealing the "Visitor from Time and Space" would make his sworn enemy shine brightly and become famous.
There was no need to visit abroad, and the big pineapple and the top officials met with the heads of state and principal leaders of at least twenty or thirty countries in the Kremlin.
Everyone came one after another to meet the audience with a clear goal, that is, to get some benefits as much as possible to go back, and the thieves will not go empty.
After learning that India could actually purchase the world's most advanced fighter jets from this strategic partner, South Africa was also ready to move.
It is possible to sell, but it must meet several prerequisites, which is a requirement put forward by the young people of the second goods.
First of all, it must be paid in stock, and it must be paid in gold, and the gold supplier has the right of first refusal.
Second, it must be a long-term partner of the alliance and be able to support it in the agriculture or gold sectors.
Third, it is necessary to ensure that advanced equipment will not be resold to Western countries, especially the United States, and that secrets will not be leaked.
Finally, it is necessary to undergo regular inspections by the Alliance's expert consultants, and if there are any violations, the cooperation will be terminated immediately.
Anyone who comes to queue up to buy equipment must sign a confidentiality contract and pay liquidated damages of no less than 50 tons of gold in advance.
South Africa provides at least 400 tons of gold to the Soviet Union every year, and this liquidated damages is naturally not in its charge.
The unit price of two tons of gold is definitely not low, but the minimum consumption is a regiment of twenty planes, and if you count the weapon systems other than the bonus, you have to spend fifty tons of gold.
"Sell it, anyway, within a year, it would be good if their pilots could learn to make a 'typhoon' on their own!" The equipment of the second-class young man is so advanced that it is difficult for ordinary pilots to quickly master it
In order to train four woolly bear test pilots in order to teach the essentials of flying, three "Typhoons" have been dropped at the training base.
All kinds of restrictions could not stop the South African tycoons from purchasing, and they bought 40 "Typhoons" at one time.
"Forget about these two countries!" The suggestion can already affect the Soviet Union's foreign arms sales activities
Iraq and the kimchi countries also wanted to buy it, but the Kremlin politely declined, and they had to solve the problem of defection of their pilots first.
Once this kind of unexpected situation occurs, it can really be delivered to the enemy's door in a matter of minutes!
For a small partner like East Germany, which cannot provide gold, but the value is very important, it is impossible to provide an incomparably advanced "Typhoon", but there is also a compromise plan, that is, the MiG-29MST.
With the addition of internal fuel reserves, the MiG-29SMT has a range of up to 2400 km in the field, 3500 km with auxiliary fuel tanks, and a combat radius of up to 1550 km when performing air combat missions.
The detection range of air targets with an effective scattering area of 5 square meters is up to 90 km, and it is possible to track 10 air targets at the same time and attack two of them at the same time.
It is equipped with seven computers with high-speed computing power, which is equivalent to the combined computing power of 70 MiG-29 airborne computers produced in 1982.
Not only does the glass cockpit have an information management interface, the radar achieves versatility, but it also doubles the bomb load and can carry a payload of 4,000 kg.
The commander-in-chief of the Territorial Defense Forces, Marshal Kordinov (promoted on New Year's Day 1985), opposed the export of advanced Soviet-made fighters to other countries, including allies.
However, the military has always served political affairs, and Big Pineapple approved a contract for the sale of 24 MiG-29MSTs to East Germany.
This was important for East Germany, which was at the forefront of the confrontation with the Western bloc, and to show that the alliance would continue to support them.
"Wang, for all kinds of considerations, our Oriental friends plan to continue to purchase 'Phantom' fighters!" Big pineapple is in a good mood these days, because the strategic initiative is back in his hands.
Ten million dollars can buy a "Phantom" made in a few years, and you can also get a full set of weapons and spare parts for free, where can you find this good thing?
Before, the purchase of two regiments was only an intention, and it had not yet been finally implemented, but now seeing the hot purchase scene on Moscow's side, a certain big country finally couldn't sit still.
The "Mirage" sold by the alliance to its side is much more advanced than the F-16A/B for sale in the United States, at least equivalent to the F-16C/D version for its own use.
Considering the price factor, it is too good value, which has an incomparable attraction power for a large country that is shy in the pocket.
"As long as they are willing to pay liquidated damages, they can still sell at the original price!" The chicken is completely a shameless style that does not refuse to come
The supply in my hands is very sufficient, 48 planes were found in the United Arab Emirates, 31 planes were found in India, 12 planes were also found in Egypt, and 91 planes were drawn in these three countries, not counting the 50 planes on the treasure island.
Add in the more than 200 planes in France, the country of origin of the "Phantom", and a certain large country will have to work hard to mine......
Big Pineapple took out a document and explained: "The problem is that our agents have discovered that they have secretly sold two 'Mirages' to France, which will be confiscated if they pay liquidated damages. What's more, they are not willing to pay liquidated damages! ”
The young man of the second cargo thought to himself: I said, why did you suddenly mention this, you originally wanted me to be a villain!
"If they are willing to pay liquidated damages, then they will not be held accountable for the time being as if it did not happen. Otherwise, the unit price will rise to one ton of gold, a price that they absolutely cannot afford! The unit price of the J-8 II for which the United States has modified its electronic equipment is 10 million US dollars, and the original 'Mirage' and weapons are only this price, so what else can they ask for? I think that if the "Mirage" is not sold, Marshal Kordunov will be happy to replace some of the old fighters with the "Mirage"! ”
The "fulcrum" created by the alliance now is inferior to the "phantom" of the nineties.
The combat effectiveness of more than a hundred French cargo is equivalent to the original MiG-29 of twenty regiments, which is a good complement to the Territorial Defense Force.
If deployed in the Far East, it is more than enough to use three regiments of "Phantoms" to deter the F-15J/DJ on the Japanese side, which can only fight at close range.
It doesn't matter if you lose a little money, and you can use this thing to whet the French appetite at any time, how interesting!
France has reluctantly blocked the export channels of the "Phantom" with bilateral economic and trade agreements, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to see the "graceful figure" of the fighter plane it has developed over Central Europe......
In addition to delivering the newly manufactured "fulcrum" to small partners such as South Africa, India, and Argentina, it is also for the air forces of satellite countries such as Poland, East Germany, and Czechoslovakia.
Of course, this also requires a fee, and it is not possible to give it away for free.
Bilateral relations have finally been repaired, but the two countries are still in a very delicate state, and the big pineapple has already determined that the United States is the target of the alliance, and does not want to make too many enemies, let alone turn the other cheek with a certain big country: "It seems that this is a relatively safe solution!" ”
"If they don't catch up, I'm afraid that in a few years, one of their regiment's J-7s won't be able to defeat the four Su-30s of the Alliance Air Force!" This is something that any expert can think of
With the help of the second-class youth, the strength of the Soviet Air Force and the Territorial Defense Force is constantly rising at a rocket-like speed!
The main models of the Territorial Defense Force are now the MiG-31BM, with 72 aircraft in the former and 601 in the F-16C/D and E/F.
With the passage of time, more and more hairy bear pilots have mastered the essentials of American fighters and have begun to take to the air to carry out combat readiness patrol missions.
Another 103 MiG-29M/MST and 92 MiG-35s are used as auxiliaries, but the combat effectiveness of this second-line unit should not be underestimated.
The avionics system of the top-of-the-line version of the "Fulcrum" (MiG-35) is so advanced that even the hairy bear pilots are unbelievable, and it took half a year to basically figure it out.
The addition of nearly 1,000 new fighters has greatly strengthened the alliance's air defense strength and effectively curbed the approach and reconnaissance operations of Western military planes on the territory of the Soviet Union.
According to the gentlemen's agreement between the Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force, Marshal Yefimov, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Territorial Defense Forces, Marshal Kordinov.
The MiG-31, MiG-29 and F-16 are all owned by the Territorial Defense Force, while the Air Force enjoys the exclusive right to use the Su-30, Su-35, Su-34, and the American F-15.
After the continuous erection of new teleportation points on the post-apocalyptic side, almost all military powers and hot spots have been patronized by some non-mainstream thief.
