Chapter 611: Arms Sales to Iraq

"Yes, it is our Hussein-type sounding rocket." Saddam said: "The guidance system of our sounding rocket is very primitive. I hope Pakistan can use advanced electronic technology to improve it."

"Okay." Mhammad said: "We can improve it for you. However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, our improvement this time must be carried out in secret and must not be known to other countries, especially the United States."

"Of course." Saddam replied: "In order to keep it confidential, I hope your country can send technical personnel to our Iraq to make improvements. All expenses will be borne by our Iraqi side."

Although Iraq has long since become poor after the Iran-Iraq war, after all, Iraq is still an important oil exporter in the Gulf. As long as it can extract crude oil, there will be new income. For the military, Saddam is No effort is spared, especially ballistic missiles!

If the guidance system of the Hussein missile can be improved to achieve an accuracy within fifty meters, it will be a big killer!

"We now have a hundred Hussein missiles in the country, and we hope to improve them as soon as possible." Saddam said: "I hope we can sign this improvement agreement."

At Saddam's request, the two sides signed an agreement that day. The improvement cost for each missile was US$50,000, and the contract totaled US$5 million. As for the Pakistani technicians who went to work in Iraq, they would also receive an additional bonus. reward.

The unit price of the Scud missile is actually only 150,000 US dollars now. The improvement cost of 50,000 US dollars is already a lot. However, electronic technology is very expensive now, and ballistic missiles can only hit with high enough accuracy. Only then can we make up for the shortcomings of not having nuclear warheads.

After negotiating this contract, Saddam was very satisfied. He admired Pakistan's defense industry very much. The next day, he visited Pakistan's tank manufacturing plant and saw the latest main battle tank developed by Pakistan. An advanced tank with a turret, Saddam continued: "I don't know how this tank performs compared to our T-72 tank."

Now, the most advanced tank equipped by the Iraqi army is the T-72, which is all equipped in the Iraqi Republican Guard and is the sharp knife of the Iraqi armed forces.

However, the performance of this tank is not advanced. Originally, the T-72 tank was a simplified model of the Soviets and was exported to Iraq. It is the monkey version of the monkey version. It is said that between the two layers of armor, the place where the composite armor was originally installed. It is filled with sand. This kind of tank is fine when it comes to a duel with the Iranian Chieftain tank, but it can only get beaten when it goes up against the American M1 tank.

The Pakistani tanks are different. They adopt the overall design of the Panther tank and a low turret. The engine has high horsepower, the fire control system is advanced, and the armor is Pakistan's top secret. Its overall capability far exceeds that of the T-72 tank, and it can compete head-on with the M1 tank!

Should advanced armor be exported to Iraq? After just a brief comparison in his mind, Mhammad had already made a decision: the Iraqi army must be made stronger!

The reason is simple. According to Saddam’s urine, after the Iran-Iraq war. If you want to default on your debt, by invading Kuwait, you can not only default on Kuwait's huge loan, but you can also take all Kuwait's wealth as your own, so. The Gulf War was almost a necessity.

Hamad is no saint for what is happening in the Middle East. Although he could predict that it was going to happen, he couldn't stop it. Since he couldn't stop it, he had to try to push it in a direction that was beneficial to him.

When Iraq invades Kuwait, it turns its back on the entire Middle East and the entire Western world. The United States will quickly make a decision to send troops to the Middle East to help Kuwait restore its power!

This war in history was a battle to restore the self-confidence of the United States. Various high-tech weapons from the United States came on the scene, leaving Iraq unable to fight back. The Iraqis were soon driven away from Kuwait's soil, and , Americans began to be full of confidence in their own combat effectiveness, and the haze of the Vietnam War was gone. From then on, Americans began to dictate the world and interfere in other countries' internal affairs. This was a very bad start! Especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States became a unipolar power, which was very detrimental to Pakistan. Now Pakistan has vague hegemony in South Asia and has good relations with China. But when the Soviet Union collapses, the Americans must find new enemies to use as excuses to continue to maintain their huge military spending and maintain their global Deployed troops.

By then, the United States will definitely check and balance China and Pakistan, and Pakistan's life will be even more difficult. This is what Mhamad absolutely does not want to see.

Therefore, Pakistan should help Iraq and let the Gulf War turn into a war that bleeds the blood of Americans and let them continue their failure in the Vietnam War!

It would be best to let Americans suffer from trauma in this war, so that Americans will not be so arrogant in future generations! And if you want to achieve this goal, you must make Iraq stronger.

In war, the way that kills the most people is of course ground combat! Exporting to Iraq some main battle tanks that can defeat M1 tanks is also beneficial to Pakistan.

In future battles, the Americans will find this type of tank difficult to deal with and will not accuse Pakistan of anything. Because now, Saddam is still a hero in the Western world, and as for the devil, that is Khomeini.

Only after Saddam took action against Kuwait did the United States begin to vilify Saddam.

Thinking of this, Mhamad said: "Of course, our tanks, as well as models specially improved for desert areas, are exported to Iraq. They are very suitable for the terrain of Iraq. How many tanks do you need?"

"Two hundred vehicles." Saddam said: "We need to order 200 vehicles first and continue to order in the future. The total number may remain around 500 vehicles."

"Our ex-factory price for each vehicle is three million US dollars, including all kinds of ammunition. Four million US dollars per unit. Can you accept it?" Mhamad said.

Four million dollars! Although ammunition is included, the price is not cheap. You must know that the 69 tanks ordered by Iraq from China only cost several hundred thousand dollars each.

"Our main battle tank has a 1,500-horsepower engine." Mhammad said: "The maneuverability is excellent, and the fire control system can support shooting while moving. The accuracy of dynamic-to-motive shooting is as high as 80%. The powerful 120mm artillery can guarantee a first hit at a distance of two thousand meters. These are the most advanced technologies. In the future, the war will not be won by quantity. "

"The price is not high and we can completely accept it," Saddam said.

"In addition to your main battle tanks, wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are a weapon that should be equipped in large quantities." Mhamad said: "You have many desert areas, and ordinary cars are not suitable for the harsh conditions in desert areas. environment, the army should develop towards mechanization and equip a large number of wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, which can allow the army to The team has faster response capabilities, especially wheeled infantry fighting vehicles equipped with anti-tank missiles. Our self-developed 8*8 series wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are very suitable for your needs, and the Red Arrows equipped on them are -8 anti-tank missiles can penetrate the armor of any Western main battle tank.

Hongjian-8 is an excellent anti-tank missile. Pakistan has introduced a full set of production lines for production and has also installed it on various vehicles. For example, among the wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, one is a specialized anti-tank missile. Launch the vehicle, appear and disappear in the desert area, and hit tanks behind the sand dunes, hitting them accurately!

Now, these equipment are sold to Iraq! By then, Americans will be in big trouble.

"Yes, we must equip wheeled infantry fighting vehicles." Saddam said: "The number of such infantry fighting vehicles must be large, at least thousands!"

Wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are low-cost to build and use. After negotiation, the two parties signed a contract for 1,000 vehicles at a price of US$500,000 per vehicle. Pakistan will gradually deliver them within the next five years.

"President Hamad, we have gained a lot from this visit to Pakistan." Before returning home, Saddam said to Hamad: "The friendship between us in Iraq and Pakistan will last forever."

"Mr. President Saddam, our beliefs are the same. In the past ten years, Iraq has fought an arduous struggle with Iran in order to deal with Iran's export of revolution. You are the hero of our world." Mha Mader said: "No matter what happens in the future, we in Pakistan will firmly stand on the same front as your country."

"No matter what happened?" Saddam's eyes lit up: "President Hamad?"

"Yes," said Mhammad, "no matter what happened."

If you have something to say, you must point it out, and you can't say it too bluntly. If Hamad directly said, Brother Saddam, you go ahead, I will give you moral support from behind, and dig a good hole for the Americans. Then Saddam will definitely be aware of it. How do you know that I want to invade Kuwait?

Arms dealers are all shameful, and Mhamad must support Saddam in order to continue the healthy development of the domestic military industry. Moreover, in Mhamad's mind, a series of plans have begun to brew.

Pakistan needs to rise and the United States needs to decline! Now, history has entered a turning point. How to grasp it depends on how you can grasp the pulse of the times in the rolling tide of history and push history to develop in a direction that is beneficial to Pakistan! (To be continued ~^~)
