Chapter 121: Imported Production Line?

"That means that no matter what country this fighter is exported to, it won't leak to the U.S. Air Force, right?" Zhang Feng asked.

Fred and Kashin looked at each other, not knowing what Zhang Feng meant by this.

"Logically, that's true, but as you know, it's impossible for us to export fighter jets to certain countries." Fred said.

"Like the Soviet Union?" Zhang Feng said.

Both sides laughed, the United States exported fighters to the USSR? Whoever you give it to is a joke.

"In other words, there should be no problems with the export of this fighter to our country, right?" Zhang Feng asked.

"Of course, President Reagan has already signed the document, and there are no problems with the export of this fighter." Kashin said.

"So, what about the production line?" Zhang Feng asked.

Hearing this, Fred, who was still smiling just now, was dumbfounded.

I didn't expect that the other party would make such a request!

"Your Excellency Qusay, we in the United States have never exported fighter jets, and there has never been a precedent for exporting production lines, are you kidding? Even Israel has not exported production lines. Cassin said.

After saying this, he obviously felt that he had said the wrong thing, and he didn't know how to correct it, and his face suddenly turned red.

"You're right." Zhang Feng said: "If we were Israel, we would never make such a request, even if it is a ban from the United States on the export of fighter jets to Israel, but it will be released soon." ”

Fred knew that Zhang Feng was talking about Israel's brazen bombing of Iraq's nuclear reactors, and the United States made a statement to ban the export of all kinds of weapons and spare parts to Israel, but this policy was not implemented for two months, and it was opened up by the Jewish power in the country, and it did not affect any Israeli actions.

There are many complex economic and political issues involved, and Fred doesn't want to, and doesn't want to know too much, that in the United States, Jewish power is a very powerful force, they occupy an important part of the American economy, and they also have a very strong influence on the political axe.

"These are all political axe acts, and they have nothing to do with our company, please don't doubt the sincerity of our company." Fred said.

"Yes, I don't doubt the sincerity of your company, I just doubt the policy of your country's political axe." Zhang Feng said: "I know that in your country, there is a very powerful force, this force is very hostile to Iraq, and they have a very strong influence on your country's political axe. ”

Fred was shocked, he couldn't believe that the young man in front of him, who was less than eighteen years old, actually knew the situation in the United States so clearly.

"Now that the United States has liberalized its fighter jet export policy, we can negotiate various agreements, and eventually, we will introduce advanced fighter jets like yours, but, perhaps, one day, your country will once again introduce a paper policy, even if it is a screw on the ban on the export of fighter jets, our fighter jets will also face the danger of grounding." Zhang Feng said: "Your country's arms sales, many times, are linked to politics, and I don't want to see the fighter jets that my country bought at a high price become a pile of scrap metal." ”

This example, Zhang Feng in later generations, I have seen too much, the Americans' planes are not sold to you casually, whoever is his ally, he will sell them to you, and when you don't listen to him, he will immediately impose a ban on the sale of weapons, then, the weapons bought at a high price before will be unusable because of the lack of spare parts.

The arms ban is a big stick held high by the United States.

Later, Pakistan bought F-16s from the United States, and after entering the nuclear club, the United States announced an arms embargo, almost turning all these aircraft into scrap metal. Not to mention the distant ones, even Iran, which is near, has lost the supply of parts from the Americans, and now the Tomcat fighters that can take off are no more than twenty in total.

Therefore, when Zhang Feng heard that Northrop was promoting the F-20, he had already made this idea, or he would not buy it, or if he wanted to buy it, he would buy it even with the production line!

Zhang Feng knew that in the history of later generations, none of the F-20 Tiger Shark fighters were sold, and Northrop lost $1.2 billion in research and development expenses in vain and got nothing. Therefore, he knows that if he doesn't buy it, I'm afraid that no other country's air force will be willing to buy it, and this is his confidence.

Fred pondered for a long time, he didn't expect that the other party put forward such a condition.

It should not be a big problem to export this kind of fighter plane to Iraq, but if it is exported together with the production line, it will involve a big problem, will the political axe agree? The Jewish forces inside the political axe will definitely try their best to stop it.

Seeing the other party's contemplation, Zhang Feng said: "If you are willing to export the production line, then Iraq is willing to order 100 of these fighters, the first 10 are complete aircraft, 20 are assembled by you in parts, and the last 70 are completely produced by the production line exported to Iraq." ”

One hundred! Fred was shocked in his heart, these countries with black gold buried in the ground are really rich! A hundred fighters, plus the production line, will be a very large order, if these orders can be obtained, then, the company will greatly benefit!

The hearts of Fred and Kashin began to move.

"The export production line will definitely encounter resistance, but I believe that with the strength of your company, you will be able to lobby for the success of your country's political axe, and it will be much easier for you to export to other countries after the Iraqi Air Force first equips it." Zhang Feng said: "This deal is very worthwhile. ”

"It's a big deal, and I think I'll have to ask the board of directors to do that." Fred said.

The export production line, the matter is too big, although he is the deputy general manager of the company, he can't agree to it.

"In addition to the production line, I have a second requirement, the weapon programming interface of the fire control system, which must be sold to me together, so that the F-20 fighter can not only guide the Sparrow air-to-air missile, but also guide other missiles equipped with our country." Zhang Feng said.

The fighter production line can be introduced, but the introduction of the air-to-air missile production line is simply impossible, so Zhang Feng had no choice but to make this decision to let the other side open the weapon interface, so that in the future, if the United States imposes sanctions on itself and the weapons are banned, there will not be a situation where there are planes and no missiles. For example, now, the Tomcat fighters of the Iranians, because they do not have powerful immortal bird missiles, can only use medium-range Sparrow and process Sidewinder missiles, and in later generations, the Iranians really do not have air-to-air missiles for Tomcats, so they actually had a whim and put the ground-to-air Hawk missiles on the Tomcat's wings.

"Your Excellency Qusay, we really can't agree to your request." "The fire control system is our secret, and even if we agree, the C.I.A. will stop it," Cassin said. ”

"I heard from you just now that this kind of fighter was originally intended for export use, and it will not reveal the secrets of the existing equipment of the US military." Zhang Feng said.
