Babylonian Empire

Therefore, when Zhang Feng heard that Northrop was promoting the f-20, he had already made up his mind. If he didn't buy it, if he wanted to buy it, he would buy it along with the production line!

Zhang Feng knew that in the history of later generations, none of the F-20 Tiger Shark fighter jets were sold. Northrop lost 12 billion US dollars in research and development expenses for nothing, and got nothing.Therefore, he knows that if he does not buy it, I am afraid that no other country's air force will buy it. This is his confidence.

Fred pondered for a long time, he did not expect that the other party proposed such a condition.

It should not be a big problem to export this kind of fighter plane to Iraq, but if it is exported together with the production line, it will involve a big problem. Will the government agree?The Jewish forces in the government will definitely try their best to stop it.

Seeing the other party pondering, Zhang Feng said: "If you are willing to export the production line, then Iraq is willing to order 100 fighters of this type. The first 10 will be delivered as complete aircraft, 20 will be assembled by you, and the last 70 will be completely made by Production line for export to Iraq."

One hundred!Fred was shocked, these countries with black gold buried on the ground are really rich!One hundred fighters, plus the production line, will be a very large order. If these orders can be obtained, then the company will benefit greatly!

The hearts of Fred and Kashin began to move.

"Exporting the production line will definitely encounter resistance. However, I believe that with the strength of your company, you can successfully lobby the government of your country. Moreover, after the Iraqi Air Force first equips it, it will be much easier for you to export it to other countries." Zhang Feng said: "This deal is very worthwhile."

"It's a big deal, I think, I have to ask the company's board of directors for instructions," Fred said.

Exporting the production line is too big a matter, even though he is the company's deputy general manager, he can't agree to it straight away.

"In addition to the production line, I have a second request. The weapon programming interface of the fire control system must be sold to me, so that the F-20 fighter can not only guide the Sparrow air-to-air missile, but also guide other missiles equipped by our country." Zhang Zhang Feng said.

The production line of fighter planes can be imported, but it is simply impossible to introduce the production line of air-to-air missiles. Zhang Feng had no choice but to make the other party open the interface of weapons. There are planes without missiles.For example, now, the Iranian Tomcat fighter jets can only use the medium-range Sparrow and the process Sidewinder missiles because they do not have powerful Phoenix missiles. , put the ground-to-air Hawk missiles on the wings of the Tomcat.

"Your Excellency Qusay, we really cannot agree to your request." Kashin said, "The fire control system is our secret. Even if we agree, the CIA will stop it."

"Just now I heard from you that this type of fighter jet is originally intended for export and will not reveal the secrets of the US military's existing equipment." Zhang Feng said.Please remember the URL, if you like "Babylonian Empire" written by Huadongzhixiong

Chapter 122 Open Interfaces

Chapter 122 Open Interface——

The United States exports fighter jets to any country, and has never opened the weapon programming interface. The fire control system is the secret of fighter jets. Hearing what the other party said, Fred and Kashin seemed to have been poured cold water. Its impossible!

Originally, they expressed a lot of confidence. Seeing such a warm welcome from the other party during the day, the two thought that things would turn around. However, they did not expect that the question raised by the other party made it difficult for them to accept it. "Search to see the fastest"

However, Fred always had a feeling that this was something he had never encountered in sales in any other country. How could the other party make such a request?

Some countries want to lower the price as much as possible, and some countries want to improve the performance as much as possible. However, no country will propose to introduce the production line and want to master the requirements of the programming interface of the fire control system. However, because of this, Fred feels that this This time's opponent made him even more admired.

Saddam's son, Your Excellency Qusay, is indeed not in the pool.

"Although this fighter plane is for export, as you know, the radar is the eyes of the fighter plane, and the fire control system also has a lot of secrets. These technologies cannot be leaked. So, if you insist on the If you don’t have a point of view, then this time, I’m afraid I’m really sorry.” Fred said.

"I think you may have misunderstood me." Zhang Feng said: "Your company's f-20 Tiger Shark fighter uses the lvsexsb data bus, right? I just want the weapon programming interface, not the The confidentiality of your entire fire control system, as long as I can get enough data from the interface to guide other types of missiles, that’s fine.”

&nxsb data bus, this is definitely a cross-age masterpiece, it is an avionics integrated system bus, which provides a medium for the exchange of data and information between all systems of the whole aircraft, and processes the data through the central processing unit. "Search to see the fastest" is similar to the local area network of later generations.

Up to now, the U.S. military has come to the forefront in terms of informatization. For example, Soviet aircraft, each controlling its own, launching a missile requires pressing multiple switches, and the systems are separated.On the American aircraft, all the sensors, airspeed, depression angle, radar, and optoelectronic equipment of the entire aircraft have been cross-linked, which greatly improves the efficiency.

Zhang Feng said these words because he is very familiar with these things in later generations. China did not adopt this bus technology until the J-2 fighter jet, which is a model of peace.

&nxsb data bus, Fred and Kashin were stunned. They wanted to simply mention the secrets of the fire control system, but who knows, they ran into an expert, that is, Sukhoi or MiG. There are very few senior engineers who understand their data bus.

Your Excellency Qusay, why does he know everything?

Since the other party is an expert, the two had no choice but to explain in detail: "It is true that our weapon programming interface only needs to collect confidence in the lvsexsb data bus, but this is still confidential. Even if we open it, it will be very difficult. Guaranteed that you can use it, as far as I know, the people who can master these technologies are all outstanding talents from major aviation companies, I am afraid there is no one in Iraq?"

"I don't need to worry about whether there is any, as long as I can get these." Zhang Feng said.

Looking at Iraq, it is true that there are no such talents, but only if you have money, you can dig a few back, and get these things, and you can get rid of your dependence on the United States. Zhang Feng has his own insistence. Among the big countries, there is no Eternal friends, when did the United States turn against each other, and the other party stopped providing Sparrow air-to-air missiles, how can I let these planes engage in air combat?

Zhang Feng did this to prepare for the future. It is unnecessary and incompatible to use f-20 to guide Soviet missiles. However, to guide missiles imported from Europe, such as the French Matra Super 530 missile or the later Mika There is still a very high possibility of medium-range bombs.

"Okay, we'll discuss it." Fred said, "Your Majesty Qusay, I really didn't expect that you know so much about our fighter jets."

Of course I understand, otherwise, how could I have put on such a big show to welcome you!Zhang Feng thought to himself that not only did he understand, but he was also very thoughtful. If the production line could really be introduced, some improvements would have to be made.

The F-20 Tiger Shark has such a miserable fate in history. In addition to the company's policies, the aircraft itself also has shortcomings.

First, due to the limited airframe, the fuel carrying capacity is insufficient and the combat radius is short. This, like the F-16, can increase the range by increasing the fuel tank, but the maneuverability will be slightly reduced.

Second, the price is on the high side. When the f-20 was developed, it was estimated that the price would be half that of the f-16, but its performance could reach 16% of that of the f-80.00.And the final selling price, due to the company's pricing strategy, is finally similar to the price of the f-16.However, this price is not a big problem for me.Anyway, no matter how hard I try, it is impossible to buy f-16, let alone introduce a production line.

"Because we really want to introduce a main air superiority fighter." Zhang Feng said with a smile: "That's why we can sit here and talk about the introduction."

Then, Zhang Feng changed the subject: "In addition to the F-20 Tiger Shark, Dassault is said to be developing a new Mirage 2000. I am also very interested. Recently, I want to go to Europe. We also need to import some other weapons. :."

Zhang Feng brought up the Mirage 2000 intentionally or unintentionally. Naturally, he wanted to tell the other party that although you have seen that Iraq needs fighter jets, it is not your family who can export fighter jets, and there is no need to hang them on your tree.

Hearing this, Kashin said anxiously: "The Phantom F1 equipped in your country is not acclimatized to the environment. In the desert environment, the Phantom is not suitable. Our fighter has strong adaptability. Where it is developed, Considering the impact of desert wind and sand, our fighter is the most suitable, and the engine of the Mirage 2000 is a single-rotor engine, which is very backward and definitely not suitable for Iraq."

Zhang Feng knew that what the other party said was the truth, but it was not entirely true. The introduction of a fighter jet required other factors, such as politics.

"France is our traditional arms exporter. Our air force already has some experience in using legal fighter jets. Moreover, France seldom engages in arms sales bans. It is more appropriate to conduct military transactions with France," Zhang Feng said. .

"Don't worry, Your Excellency Qusay, I will try my best to facilitate our transaction." Fred said.

"As long as those Jews don't jump out to make trouble." Kashin muttered, exported the production line, and opened the interface. If those Jews don't make trouble, then hell will happen.

Although the voice was low, Zhang Feng could hear it clearly. He suddenly remembered the Israeli general who was captured by him. With this person in his hand, if those Jewish forces jumped out to make trouble, they should use this general in exchange. Let's see if they agree!Finding the right position for this prisoner, Zhang Feng even felt like a blessing in disguise.Please remember the URL, if you like "Babylonian Empire" written by Huadongzhixiong

Chapter 123 Convincing Saddam Hussein ([-])

Chapter 123 Convincing Saddam Hussein ([-])——

Looking at the backs of the two company executives going out, Zhang Feng knew that he had already released all his chips this time, and how to accept the move was entirely up to the other party. "novel"

"Qusay, are we really going to import the production line for this aircraft?" Izzart asked.

Zhang Feng knew that this was also the main issue he was going to lobby Saddam. In this era, most people think that it is enough to buy back the weapons.

However, advanced weapons can be bought back, and advanced national defense is definitely not something that can be bought:!In this world, if you want to import some weapons and equipment, you will become a military power, that is completely idiotic.

The real national defense is built entirely on its own.

Think about China at the beginning, which was poor and white, but after completing the first five-year plan, it became a basic industrial country. Although all kinds of weapons and equipment were imported, almost all of them were imported and then imitated. , finally, reached the self-developed.Purely relying on imports and assembling, it has become a military power. For example, the Indian Asan in the south, painting a tiger is not an anti-dog. When importing, he was deceived everywhere and maliciously raised the price. A broken aircraft carrier was sold in a daze. A sky-high price.

Iraq, the fourth military power in the world that boasts about it, actually has no confidence at all.A country that can only produce an assault rifle similar to the ak74 at most is not worthy of being called a military power.

Therefore, it is Zhang Feng's goal to build up various systems in Iraq to be able to produce various weapons, off-road trucks, infantry fighting vehicles, tanks, aircraft, and artillery.

Now, there is such an opportunity to introduce the most advanced industrial country, the American production line. Zhang Feng will never give up this opportunity. In this way, Iraq's industry can be raised to a higher level, and the high-level figures in Iraq can see it. Look, the modernization they preach is far from the real one.

"Yes, if it can be introduced, then, I dare say, even if we spend double the price, we will still make money." Zhang Feng said: "If they are still staying in Basra these few days, then we should treat them well." They, I need to go to Baghdad and report the situation here to the president," Zhang Feng said.

With the start of construction of the Abadan oil plant, Iraq's funds will begin to become sufficient. With these funds, it will be used for industrial construction and a strong national defense force. Zhang Feng is very confident that Saddam Hussein will agree with him to do so.

Negotiations with Kuwait have been settled, and Tariq and Hikmat immediately put themselves into the production of the refinery nervously.The oil pipeline needs to be repaired secretly, and the refinery workers need to be recruited from the rear. The two feel that no matter how many hands they have, they are not enough.
