Dominate South Asia

The sexy and pretty secretary stopped the car, and Rick got out. He saw these South African technicians looking at him like a lover. Their eyes showed an impatient look, as if they were going to push him down the next moment.

No, they were not looking at him, but at these trucks! Rick reacted and realized that these guys were all technology geeks.

"Mr. Rick, I'm so grateful this time." Smith said, "You brought us the most important thing!"

"Well, this time, only your and Israeli technicians can be modified. The French cannot get involved. You must pay attention to this. If the French master these technologies, the United States will be very annoyed." Rick said.

"We know, of course we know that the French only participated in our Sculptor project. We cooperated with Israel to improve the Mirage fighter."

Smith watched the box on the truck being moved down, opened, and wrapped in shock-proof foam. It was indeed a flat radar antenna!

This is what South Africa lacks the most! Advanced fire control radar!

Rick smiled. Pakistan made a profit of nearly 100 million US dollars from this deal. These things were the APG-67 radars originally used on F-20 fighters from Northrop!

Originally, Northrop developed a low-cost F-20 fighter and wanted to sell these fighters to the world with the popularity of F-5. However, countries around the world saw that even the US Air Force did not equip them and had no interest in this kind of fighter.

As a result, after investing hundreds of millions of dollars in research and development costs, Northrop could not recover any costs. In their anxiety, President Muhammad came out of nowhere. Helping them sell this unsalable fighter, it is difficult to sell the whole machine, but selling some of its subsystems can still make money, such as fire control radars and F404 engines, which are good sales products.

While promoting to Sweden, President Muhammad helped them find the first buyer for their fire control radars. It was South Africa! South Africa was willing to pay a high price to buy 50 sets of such fire control radars!

Although South Africa is engaged in racial segregation, which has caused opposition from people all over the world, South Africa is a country that produces diamonds and gold after all, and it is rich. Moreover, South Africa is now supporting UNITA to fight the Cuban army in Angola, and the United States also supports it, and even Tomcat fighters and E-2 early warning aircraft can go there. Exporting such fire control radars did not take too much trouble, but simply simplified the ground attack capabilities. For example, the advanced synthetic aperture function was blocked.

Even so, this radar is much more advanced than the same type of radar provided by France. When the South African side learned that Pakistan could help them get this radar, they could hardly express their excitement in words.

In this way, it was first exported to Pakistan and then went around to South Africa. These radars were all shipped here.

In addition to the radars, there were also 20 Spey engines produced by Pakistan and Eastern countries, which were also shipped here. These engines will be equipped with Mirage F1 together. In this way, the combat effectiveness of the modified Mirage F1 will undergo a rapid change.

Now, watching these radars arrive, the South African engineers are still like appearing in a dream.

The reason why the French were not allowed to touch it was because the French were too smart. To prevent them from obtaining advanced technology, on the other hand. The Israelis have already equipped a large number of F-15 and F-16 fighters, so it doesn't matter to them that the performance of this radar is inferior to that of the Israeli army.

These radars are accompanied by installation instructions, and South African engineers began to study how to match this radar to their own fighters.

On the other hand, the installation of the engine did not take much effort. Since Pakistan has shipped several engines for them to test, they are already familiar with the Spey engine, and the matching with the Mirage F1 went very smoothly.

After receiving the goods, the South African engineers began to work intensively. Most of them are technology geeks. Now that they have these things on hand, they will work day and night.

Originally, they only planned to use the Spey engine on the new Sculptor project. When the test was completed and the outstanding fuel consumption rate of this engine was discovered, they were very satisfied with this engine and decided to use this engine to improve their Mirage fleet first.

Watching these technicians busy, Rick followed and gestured beside them. Soon, half a day passed.

Unconsciously, I was hungry.

Watching these busy technicians, even Smith was sitting in the cockpit of a Mirage F1, discussing the installation of the display and operating system, Rick finally did not disturb them.

"Irina, let's go to their cafeteria for a meal." Rick said.

Go to the cafeteria? Irina looked at Rick with her big blue eyes, as if asking, is Rick planning to stay here in the afternoon and go back at night? However, as a secretary, she could not interfere with Rick's choice and could only cooperate.

"Yes, the cafeteria is in the back." Irina said: "Please follow me, I will take you to eat."

"Irina, you seem to be familiar with this place." Rick said to Irina. When he came last time, he saw that many people seemed to know Irina.

"Yes, I worked here for two years before becoming your secretary." Irina said to Rick.

"Then you must know a lot of people?" Rick asked.

"Of course." Irina said: "But there are many more people who know me than I do."

"Why?" Rick just finished asking, and he understood that a sexy woman like Irina is welcome everywhere. Although the white women in South Africa are all good-looking, people like Irina are also good enough to participate in the beauty pageant.

Irina continued to look at Rick with confidence on her face, so Rick finally couldn't help it. When there was no one around, he reached out and touched Irina's uniform skirt.

Irina turned around and made a face at Rick.

"We're in the cafeteria."

It was lunchtime, but there were more French people in the cafeteria, and there were not many South African staff.

"Are the South African technicians still working?" Rick figured out why in an instant. The French were hired and must have eaten on time, while their own staff, while the war was going on, were mainly working.

"Yes." Irina said, "Even the chief designer often forgets to eat."

The cafeteria is self-service, Rick only needs to sit at the table and wait, watching Irina go to get food, this kind of thing must be done by the secretary.

"It's a pity that we were sent here to participate in the Sculptor Project, just a light fighter." At this time, several French engineers who were eating at the adjacent table complained while eating.

"The girls here are not as romantic as we are in France. It is almost impossible to have a romantic encounter. Work and life are not smooth."

"That's right. Now in China, the Mirage 4000 has been completely finalized. If we were not sent here, our names should also be on the Mirage 4000 development list."

"Yes, this is the pride of our country and the pride of Dassault!"

"Shh, beauty, there is a beauty!" said a Frenchman.

They all looked in Rick's direction, watching the moving beauty, holding the meal, sitting towards Rick's table.

The French are eager for romance. For Westerners, their love for beautiful women is beyond words. They are also open to the love between men and women.

In China, if you curse, "I fuck your mother" or "I fuck your grandmother", it is an absolute insult, but in Western countries, the other party will recognize you as a cheap godfather or godfather, and be very happy, which shows that my mother/grandmother is very beautiful.

When they saw this beautiful woman sitting next to Rick and serving him food, they were immediately disappointed.

One of them still sat down boldly: "Dear lady, can I sit here?" He pointed to the seat next to Irina, not caring about the feelings of Rick sitting opposite.

"That depends on Mr. Rick's opinion." Irina said lightly. She looked at Rick and didn't look angry, but a little strange.

Mr. Rick?

Rick visited Atlas that day and met many French people. However, developing a fighter jet requires a team of thousands of people. He couldn't have met every one of them. These French people didn't know Rick.

In South Africa, they are respected and have privileges. After all, South Africa relies on them to help develop fighter jets. Without them, South African technicians would not have enough strength.

"Hey, Mr. Rick, can I sit here?" The Frenchman said. He still maintained a gentlemanly demeanor, after all, he was in front of a beautiful girl.

"That depends on whether you have the ability." Rick said: "I am a pilot of the Tomcat fighter, a heavy twin-engine variable-sweep wing fighter."

"I am a fighter developer."

"Is it a heavy twin-engine?" Rick asked: "Light aircraft don't count."

"Of course it is." The other party would not admit defeat in front of Irina, and then said: "Do you know the Mirage 4000? The pride of our Dassault company, heavy, twin-engine, canard layout, four-degree redundancy fly-by-wire. Before coming to South Africa, I developed this fighter."

"What a pity, it seems that there are no orders for this fighter?" Rick said, every word seemed to sting the other party. (To be continued ~^~)
