Chapter 541: Latin America Ahead of Schedule

"Andrey, your solution to the problem is very good. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info"In the Kremlin, Andropov said to Andrei, surrounded by the top military leaders, the rulers of the Red Empire.

"I just don't know how long Huaxia will be depressed, if they reach an agreement with the Saudis, at least billions of dollars will be earned, which is a good opportunity for their military industrial complex." "However, we will never allow the Middle East to get out of our control, and this is where we will compete with the United States next," Andrei said.

"Yes, this year, the Middle East will not be peaceful." Ustinov said: "Now the international price of crude oil has reached 80 US dollars a barrel, and other countries in Western countries except Britain and Norway are complaining. ”

Britain and Norway, the North Sea between them, is now engaged in large-scale oil exploration, just in time for the rise in international crude oil prices, these two countries, can be regarded as a big profit, although other countries under the high oil prices for a long time, these two countries are making a lot of money.

United Kingdom! Thinking of the tough Iron Lady, Andrei suddenly had an idea in his heart: "Comrade General Secretary, our struggle against imperialism is global, and I think we should also support the struggle of Latin American countries. ”

Andrei suddenly mentioned Latin America, the turn of thought made others a little unable to keep up, Latin America is the backyard of the Americans, the Soviet Union has been operating for many years, and it has only created Cuba and several other countries, and the Cuban Missile Crisis of that year made the Soviet Union lose face in front of the world. Now, where else can Latin America break through?

"The UK economy is starting to recover strongly, their self-confidence is going to be swelling, and in Latin America, there is another country that is also developing economically and has a territorial dispute with the UK, and I have a hunch that there could be a big war between them." Andrei said.

"Andrey, do you mean Argentina?" Ustinov asked.

Andrei nodded: "The Malvinas Islands are the tail left by the colonialists, Argentina has always considered it their land, and the new president of Argentina is also an iron-blooded ruler, in order to divert domestic contradictions, he may use the method of war." ”

"However, Argentina is a pro-American country." Gromyko said.

"Yes, he is pro-American, but if Argentina were to clash with Britain, which side would the United States favor?" Andrei asked.

The conclusion is obvious: the friendship between the old imperialist countries is still very deep.

"So, I suggest that we can send some agents to secretly penetrate Argentina and get in touch with their senior officials now, and when the war breaks out, the United States will impose sanctions on Argentina, and we can just pull Argentina into our arms, and we can also hit the United States and the United Kingdom." Andrei said: "Of course, these are my guesses, if there is no war, then we have nothing to lose, right?" ”

All this is Andrei's speculation, who could have known that Argentina and Britain would go to war? That's God Almighty!

André, on the other hand, is extremely sure that although his crossing has affected the world, it has not changed in South America, so what should happen there will definitely happen.

This can be regarded as a plan in advance, although Andre is just guessing, but since his debut, his guesses are almost all right.

"Andrey, I have already read your report, and we will also seriously consider the suggestions for the development of the army, among them, you will specially take out the stealth and emphasize it, and talk about your reasoning." Andropov said.

At the behest of Andropov, Andrei conducted a nationwide field investigation and a fancy visit to various military-industrial enterprises, which also yielded good results, for example, at the Ural Locomotive Plant, where the abuse of power for personal gain was discovered, and a special investigation team was sent there to investigate it to the end.

André's focus is still on the improvement of national defense science and technology, among which, Andre emphasizes that the future war is the world of stealth technology.

"Yes, Comrade General Secretary." Andrei said: "Maybe many of us here have not yet realized the military revolution brought about by stealth technology, but you can think about it, if the enemy's fighter plane is the same size as a ping-pong ball in front of the radar, if our warship is the same size as a sampan in front of the radar, what does it mean?" It means that we will lose observation of the enemy, we will not find a trace of the enemy, but the enemy can fire missiles at us at any time, and our fighters, warships, no matter how advanced, will be hit asymmetrically, this is not appalling, this is the inevitable result of the development of high technology. If we do not pay attention to the development of stealth technology, we are the sinners of history. ”

"We not only have to study our own stealth aircraft, we also need to strengthen research against stealth aircraft, which is related to our future air safety and the life and death of our fighter pilots." André said: "I hope that everyone will take it seriously. ”

After talking about a lot of issues, Andrei finally said: "What I am most happy about is to see the rapid development of our naval construction, especially the newly started aircraft carriers, which are equipped with our Indian Ocean Fleet, and I really want to see this warship put into service soon." In particular, our carrier-based AWACS aircraft has also matured, and the two models are competing, and my personal opinion is that I feel that the Yak-44 is more suitable. ”

Andrei knows that as soon as he leaves and continues to be the commander of his Turkestan Military District, he will no longer be able to interfere in this side of affairs, and now, he might as well take this opportunity to fight for the reputation of the Yak-44.

At the last stage, Andrei went to the carrier-based aircraft training base and saw these two models, which are almost the same as in history, and the result of history is to choose the Yak-44 and abandon the An-71 AWACS aircraft.

The low-speed take-off and landing capability unique to propeller aircraft is one aspect, and the An-71's excessively high fuselage cannot be placed in a hangar below deck is another, and various conditions limit the operation of the An-71 on an aircraft carrier, and the Yak-44 is more suitable.

"If this early warning aircraft can be successfully developed, in addition to operating on our aircraft carriers, it can also equip the Territorial Air Defense Force, supplement our low-altitude radar blind spots, fill the gap of large early warning aircraft, and moreover, it can also be exported to close countries in exchange for valuable foreign exchange." Andrei continued, in history, there are many reasons, and only for aircraft carriers, resulting in low production and high procurement costs are also one thing, in fact, the cost can be shared.
