Dominate South Asia
Chapter 596: South African Kestrel
After taking a sip of red wine, John continued to complain: "Everything that exists in South Africa today was built by us white people. What can they do? Without us, they can't even manage a farm well, and they don't know how to plant at all, let alone Gonna work in the factory, they're a bunch of niggas that just have fun!"
What John said is correct. After the black people in South Africa came to power in later generations, the country's economy was in a mess. The well-ordered country was thrown into chaos. The land was barren and no one cultivated it. After eating up all the food grown by the white people, it almost collapsed. I'm hungry.
"John, do you want to go to a new country?" Rick asked. He and Irina exchanged glances. Now, the breakthrough lies with John.
"A new country?" John took another sip and said, "Of course I want to go. Some people in the company have already resigned. Some have gone to France and some to Israel."
"Then why don't you go?" Rick asked.
"Me?" John said, "I'm old. I have everything here. I have a lot of wives and children. It's not that easy to leave. Besides, I don't like the arrogance of the French, and I don't like the Jews either."
The main destinations for white people in South Africa are France and Israel. Unfortunately, a few years ago, John had trouble with experts from Dassault. John had a clear love and hate, and was very dissatisfied with the Jews' oppression of the Palestinians. Therefore, he is unwilling to go to these two countries.
"How about going to Pakistan?" Rick said: "If you can go, we will arrange everything for you. You will have a big house, your family will also have jobs, and your children can enter the best universities in Pakistan. "
Going to Pakistan? John's eyes were a little red from drinking at this time: "But, my research and development project is gone. This is almost half of my life's hard work."
Development project! John is also responsible for a big project! Now. This project is almost complete! Leaving at this time was also very difficult for John to accept.
"The project can be brought to our Pakistan!" Rick continued: "You can bring the backbone of your project to our Pakistan! We in Pakistan also need your project very much. In our Pakistan, you can get more adequate funds. Guaranteed, you can also obtain more first-class technology from the West, and your project will be more mature and complete in Pakistan. We will set up a company specifically for your project, and you will be fully responsible for it. What do you think?”
The new company is fully responsible for this project and will continue to develop and improve it! Hearing this, John's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Rick, are you telling the truth?" John asked.
"Yes." Rick said: "We in Pakistan will allocate at least another 200 million US dollars to your project, which is enough to completely improve this project." Rick said: "You should also know that our own defense industry in Pakistan is now It is also very powerful, which is inseparable from our investment in this area. Moreover, when the project is successfully developed, not only will we equip Pakistan, but also Saudi Arabia and other countries will be equipped with it because of this project. Famous for thousands of miles.”
"Okay, I'm willing to go!" John said, "However, we must plan carefully. At least we must take away all the existing verification machines of the project!"
John has access to all the confidential information of the project and can easily take it away, but the verification machine of the project is not so easy to access.
"This is easy to handle." Rick said: "We have to evacuate a lot of supplies anyway. It is safest to take them away among our supplies. Your family can be transferred to Pakistan first."
"Okay!" John agreed. Although he also loved this place, after all, this was the country where he grew up, but now, there would be no place for them here.
When he saw John off, Rick had a smile on his face.
"Irina. I really didn't expect that our trip would go so smoothly." Rick said: "If we take John away with his entire project, President Hamad will definitely reward us personally. Irina, you He is also our great hero!”
Irina's hand held Rick's hand tightly. Said: "Actually, I didn't do anything."
"At the beginning, you helped me introduce John. We have been in contact with John many times, and we have gradually become familiar with each other and trust each other. Otherwise, how could John agree to follow us so easily now?" John said.
Back then, when people came to South Africa to work as mercenaries, in addition to making money and training their own army, another important task was to maintain close relationships with South African scientific and technological personnel, especially military industry personnel!
At the beginning, Rick had not realized Mhamad's intention. Now, he finally understood that the layout at that time was just for the present! In other words, President Mhamad had predicted at that time that South Africa's apartheid policy would inevitably disintegrate! And black people will replace white people to run this country! The status of white people living here will gradually decrease, and most white people will leave South Africa!
Thinking of this, Rick admired President Hamad even more. As a leader, he must have far-sightedness. This kind of foresight is not something ordinary people can have!
Now, let’s get John’s project back as a whole. After a while, when the life of white people here becomes worse, we can take away more white people! Among them, there are quite a few elites.
Now, John's project is the most important, because the project he is responsible for is an armed helicopter!
Armed helicopters are flying tanks and the natural enemy of ground forces!
Vertical take-off and landing has always been the dream of aircraft designers. During the Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci once drew a model of propeller take-off and landing, which is considered to be the ancestor of helicopters. Of course, the bamboo dragonfly of China, which has lasted for thousands of years, is also considered to be the prototype of helicopters.
In modern times, the helicopter that can be put into practical use is generally believed to be the Russian-American Sikorsky. The VS-300 he developed was the first stable-flying helicopter in 1939.
After that, helicopter technology developed rapidly. During World War II, weapons were already added to it, making it an armed helicopter. In the Korean War and the Vietnam War, Americans used helicopters in large quantities, which became an important weapon for battlefield rescue and attacking the enemy.
The rotor on the top is used to provide lift. At the same time, by controlling the direction of the rotor, it can achieve forward, backward and sideways flight. However, due to the huge resistance of the rotor, the speed of the helicopter is not high. This is why the V-22 Osprey, a fighter that combines the advantages of helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, has appeared in later generations. Unfortunately, the complex mechanical structure and high failure rate have always plagued this aircraft.
After decades of development, the Soviets were equipped with a large number of Mi-24 armed helicopters. This helicopter has a troop transport cabin at the back, which makes it huge and earned the nickname of a doe. At the same time, the armed helicopters developed in the West have only two crew cabins, small bodies, flexible maneuvers, and large ammunition loads. This is the correct direction for armed helicopters.
The representative of the West is the American AH-64 armed helicopter, which has advanced technology, large ammunition loads, and high battlefield survivability. It has almost become a standard armed helicopter for NATO.
Originally, Pakistan also wanted to introduce this type of armed helicopter, but the Americans were only willing to sell the AH-1 Cobra helicopter to Pakistan. For this already backward armed helicopter, Pakistan finally stopped the plan after careful investigation.
Because Pakistan's aviation industry is already very strong, except for the A-7 attack aircraft, the rest of the Mirage 3 and other aircraft have been converted into ground attack aircraft. At the same time, because the opponent is already very weak, Pakistan did not focus on the development of armed helicopters.
However, this does not mean that President Muhammad does not attach importance to armed helicopters. Each weapon has its own practical value. Armed helicopters are the most reliable air aid to accompany the advance of one's own armored forces. It is of great significance to give the army iron wings and let the army fly!
Therefore, Muhammad attaches great importance to South Africa's Atlas Aircraft Company. After all, they have their own professional armed helicopters!
Constant foreign operations have made the South African army realize that they should have a professional armed helicopter. Especially in the Angolan War, the South African Army's French "Jaguar" helicopters faced the increasing threat of Soviet-made surface-to-air missiles and anti-aircraft guns, and they needed armed helicopters to escort them. At that time, the South African Army's French "Skylark" III helicopters were slow and could not keep up with the "Jaguar", and could not complete the escort mission. South African military personnel tried to install the machine gun directly on the "Jaguar", but the recoil was too large for the helicopter to bear.
Faced with this situation, South African military personnel began the long process of independently developing armed helicopters. They once copied the XH-1 "Alpha" small armed helicopter based on the French "Skylark" III, but unfortunately they still could not effectively undertake the task of armed helicopters. Therefore, in 1984, Atlas Aircraft Company proposed the CSH-2 project. In later generations, in 1998, this project was called "Tea Falcon".
It adopts a double cockpit arranged in front and back tiers, with the weapon operator in the front and the pilot in the back. The height difference between the two cockpits is large, and the rear pilot has a good field of view. The conventional layout of a single rotor with a tail rotor, the tail rotor and the horizontal tail are placed on the left and right sides of the rear of the tail beam, and the rear three-point landing gear. The whole shape is angular, whether it is the aerodynamic layout, the body structure, or the weapon mounting method under the nose and short wings, it is almost a twin of the AH-64 "Apache". Therefore, in the mouths of military fans in later generations, this helicopter is also called the "African version of Apache".
The technical performance is advanced, and it is mainly adapted to the hot and sandy environment in Africa. It has a strong adaptability to the climate of Pakistan, Afghanistan, and the Middle East.
(Compared with these, China's Wuzhi-9 is simply terrible. Only Wuzhi-10 can be called an armed helicopter. Wuzhi-9 is a transport helicopter equipped with weapons.) (To be continued ~^~)
