Dominate South Asia

During the eight-year Iran-Iraq War, both Iraq and Iran used this crude ground-to-ground missile to launch at each other's big cities. They didn't care about accuracy at all, as long as it landed in the city. Iraq relied on the technical support of the United States and the Soviet Union to improve the Scud missile with slightly more advanced technology and a longer range. It launched hundreds of Scud missiles, creating conditions for the subsequent Iran-Iraq peace talks.

But it is not easy to improve the guidance system of such a primitive missile.

Chinese, Soviet and Pakistani researchers shook their heads repeatedly when holding the design drawings of this missile. After many research meetings, two solutions were finally determined:

First, purchase civilian high-speed chips from the European, American and Japanese markets, and use computers to receive positioning data obtained by inertial measurement instruments. Use more accurate and faster positioning methods to improve the accuracy of the missile;

Second, improve the missile's tail servo system and replace the original mechanical transmission mechanism with an advanced telex mechanism.

Both of these improvement plans can use the current mature guidance technology, which is the only solution that does not make major changes to the missile's aerodynamic shape.

Only after such improvements. Although the missile can achieve better accuracy than before by adjusting its attitude through computer control at the end of flight, the performance of the missile itself is too poor. Under ideal conditions, the missile's hit accuracy can only be improved to within a 300-meter circumference. As for whether such an effect can be achieved in actual combat, it is still hard to say.

Originally, after Saddam visited Pakistan, a large number of such improved guidance systems had been ordered. Unfortunately, Pakistan refused to export them for the same reason.

Pakistan did not give them, but just sold the same goods twice. Through Shostakovich, Saddam got these things again, but it was already in the name of the Soviet Union.

When their research made progress and produced a large number of physical objects. Shostakovich was active in the Caucasus and Far East of the Soviet Union. With the tacit approval of the Soviet high-level officials and the pursuit of money and beauty by the middle and lower levels, he took great efforts to get a large number of advanced Soviet equipment including anti-aircraft missiles, main battle tanks, and ground-to-ground missiles to the high seas. Under Muhammad's instructions, more than ten days were wasted, making Saddam more eager for these weapons. Only then did he start the next step.

These weapons could not save Saddam's fate of final failure, but they could make the US military bleed more!

Originally, the treasures of the Soviet army equipment, such as the S300, would never be exported. But now, because of Muhammad's crossing, the Afghan war has become far more cruel than in history, which directly led to the Soviet army investing more forces in Afghanistan. The failure to confront Muhammad also indirectly led to Marshal Akhromyev and other Soviet veterans being purged by Gorbachev, while Marshal Olgakov, the pioneer of the reformists and the leader of the new military thought who was originally excluded and suppressed, was favored by Gorbachev. Promoted to Minister of Defense. The reforms in the Soviet army that were originally stopped due to the resistance of the veterans were carried out unswervingly by Marshal Olgakov with the support of Gorbachev.

The Soviet Union lacked a lot of funds in the process of military transformation and economic reform. Therefore, a large number of surplus military equipment were sold through open or illegal channels to obtain the funds that the Soviet Union urgently needed. This policy was also tacitly approved by Gorbachev and Olgakov. Although it was difficult for the Pakistanis to come forward, Shostakovich, a former member of the Soviet Army, took advantage of his own advantages and his earlier military connections, and smuggled all kinds of Soviet military weapons with the help of money and beauties.

The outbreak of the Gulf War was indeed unexpected by the Soviet Union. In addition to hating Saddam's behavior of taking action without warning and disobeying, the Soviet Union was even more angry at the US empire for gathering multinational forces in the name of justice to teach its younger brother a lesson, but was forced to provide direct assistance to Iraq due to many problems of its own. On the contrary, under pressure from the United States, the Soviet Union expressed its consistent position with the United States for the first time in the United Nations, acquiescing to the United States organizing a large number of countries to attack Iraq. The Soviet Union was also very angry, and through Shostakovich's matchmaking, it acquiesced to the delivery of a large number of advanced Soviet military equipment to Saddam. For the Soviet Union, this is a feasible way to effectively counter the United States and maintain its influence in the Middle East.

In Iraq, NATO's air strikes are still continuing.

"Almighty God, please guide me to defeat those hateful enemies"

Saddam prayed devoutly in the mosque of his underground refuge.

F15, F16, F14, F18, F117, B1B, B52, Tornado..., multinational fighters will use a large number of missiles and laser-guided bombs as if they are free. Like raindrops, they fell on his army.

And the MiG and Mirage fighters that Saddam had high hopes for really broke his heart.

Saddam once thought that he spent a high price to buy MiG fighters and hired pilots from the Warsaw Pact to fly them. Even if he could not fully compete with the US military, he could at least keep the airspace safe.

But who would have expected that under the powerful air force of the United States, this advanced MiG-29 fighter was beaten to pieces by the F16! None of the Warsaw Pact pilots dared to fly anymore. Their role now was to serve as instructors to train Iraqi pilots. Iraqi pilots had strong combat instincts, but they were still unable to independently fly a MiG-29 into combat.

The only thing that made him feel relieved was the Scud missile.

This old-fashioned ballistic missile actually played a huge role, causing 80% of the multinational forces' aircraft to search for traces of Scud, greatly relieving the heavy pressure on the Iraqi army.

Unfortunately, the hit rate of Scud was too low, and it could only intimidate, but could not achieve the goal of killing a large number of enemy forces. Moreover, with the development of the war, the multinational forces led by the US military also attached increasing importance to Scud missiles. Under the continuous search and attack, the losses were also increasing. Although there were still many Scud missiles in stock, they were not enough to defeat the US military.

If he had known earlier, he should not have spent a lot of money to buy more ballistic missiles instead of buying dozens of damn MiG-29s!

Alas, but thank the almighty true God! The Soviets did not abandon him at the critical moment!

"Report to the President, Mr. Xiao sent a message that the apples have arrived in Syria, please send someone to pick up the goods." Amid the rumbling explosion, Saddam received a piece of news that excited him.

The apples have arrived! Saddam thought of the fighter planes he received last time, but they didn't play the corresponding role. Suspicious character appeared in his mind again. Could there be problems with these equipment?

"Dear President, I am Shostakovich. We have met before." Shostakovich sneaked into Iraq again and met Saddam at this time of war.

"Mr. Xiao, these things will not be monkey versions again," Saddam said with some concern. The main reason is that the Soviet Union's foreign arms sales policy is really too pitfalls, and it is tireless in destroying people. For example, the T72B tanks equipped by itself are real composite armor and thermal imagers, while the armor materials of the T72M sold to Iraq, Syria and other countries are all inferior goods. It is said that they are filled with sand, and they are still using old infrared headlights! The MiG-29, which was very popular this time, was buried in the sand to prevent being hit by the US Air Force.

"Mr. President, please rest assured that we came here with sincerity. Last time we underestimated the US air force. After we conducted an assessment, we got back what Iraq needed most. These are samples. Please take a look first." Shostakovich gestured for someone to bring in a wooden box.

Saddam pointed at the wooden box in confusion and asked, "What is this..."

The wooden box was not big. It was only 40 to 50 centimeters in size, and it was not very heavy.

Shostakovich sneered: "The sample I brought this time is a navigation system specially improved according to the characteristics of the Scud missile. It can ensure that your missile has an error of no more than 100 meters! I believe that with this guidance system, you will be able to deal a heavy blow to the US military!"

Saddam's face was happy.

A hundred meters of error, that's quite high. Within this error range, the Scud will blow the US military to tears. It is even possible to force them to fight on the battlefield of their choice by continuously bleeding the US military!

This significance is too great!

He was delighted and asked in a series of questions: "These guidance systems are too important, but we still need experts to modify Scud missiles. How many people can you invite? We also need a special air defense system to help us repair the air defense system. We have absolute confidence that we can defeat the Americans!"

Air defense system!

A few years ago, Iraq purchased a batch of laser printers. As a result, the hateful businessmen were controlled by the CIA. They implanted computer viruses into the laser printers. When these laser printers were used in the air defense system, the virus quietly lurked. When the Gulf War broke out, Iraq's air defense system, which had invested huge amounts of money and countless manpower and material resources, was instantly turned into a pile of waste by the virus. The air force of the multinational forces attacked the targets they wanted to attack. It was not until Saddam spent a lot of money to recruit several internationally famous computer technology experts (hackers), reformatted the computers of the air defense system, and installed a new firewall that the damn computer virus was isolated and the air defense system was barely restored to operation.

Shostakovich pretended to be reserved and said in silence: "Experts will come too. As for the air defense system, those S300 missiles are independently operated and will definitely help you fight against the fighter planes of the multinational forces. The weapons we have agreed on are ready at the Iraq-Syria border. Only the most trusted people can lead the most elite troops to pick them up. After picking them up, please deposit the payment into the account we designated. The total amount is 12 billion US dollars!" (To be continued ~^~)
