Chapter 581: F-14 Turns Waste into Treasure
readx;
Both the United States and the Soviet Union possessed a large number of nuclear weapons, and both built military bases that could resist nuclear attacks, built steel bases hundreds of meters underground, and built huge hydraulic buffer devices at the base of the entire base, and the earthquakes caused by nuclear explosions would also be buffered. Therefore, for the United States and www.biquge.info≦≧the Soviet Union, the so-called "mutual destruction" theory is not an absolute deterrent, and they are both confident that they can survive the other's nuclear attack and fight back.
However, the American scholars' "nuclear winter" theory made the participants understand the destructive effect of nuclear war, this ecological catastrophe will last for hundreds of years, no country can store food for hundreds of years, no country can have clean air after a nuclear war attack, no one can survive a nuclear war, and if a nuclear war really breaks out, it will be the complete extinction of mankind.
Soviet heavyweight, Gorbachev also attended the meeting, and after hearing the statement of this American, everyone shuddered, and Gorbachev was even more determined in his own thoughts, in the Brezhnev period, the nuclear weapons that the Soviet Union vigorously developed were of no use at all except for bringing a heavy economic burden to the Soviet Union, reducing weapons of destruction, controlling the arms race, if he could take over the power of the Soviet Union, this was a key aspect of his future policy. ≦≧
The USSR has entered the wrong track, and it must turn it right! Gorbachev was full of confidence, and now, his good friend for more than ten years, Ligachev, head of the Organization Department of the Central Committee, said many good things for him in front of General Secretary Chernenko, and was his biggest supporter. Gradually, support for Gorbachev began.
Moreover, Ligachev is using his position to convince the other two elders of the party: Politburo member and Foreign Minister Gromyko and Politburo member and Defense Minister Ustinov that they can jointly support Gorbachev, so that Gorbachev's hopes of becoming general secretary will be very great.
Gorbachev is confident, and now he is just waiting for an opportunity, for the aging Chernenko to make room for him.
USSR. Reform is needed, it's just that the pace of General Secretary Andropov's reform is not big enough! And the old Chernenko, who has no courage, the USSR needs such a determined reformist as him!

"You are sure that Iraq after taking the Tehran air base. ≦≧ got a few F14 fighters that were donated as organs? When Sharapova's eyes rolled and she said this, the head of the KGB's intelligence agency in Baghdad, ostensibly an ordinary staff member of the Soviet embassy in Iraq, heard that the KGB's most outstanding swallow had successfully penetrated the heavyweights in Iraq, and Sharapova, who was next to His Excellency Qusay, was full of joy and surprise when she said this.
"Don't you believe me?" "Now, there are already French people in contact with Iraq, hoping to smuggle back a radar and Bird missiles for an F14 fighter," Sharapova said. Although those Immortal Bird missiles have been ineffective, it will be of great help to the French to modify their fighters, especially to develop a new radar for the Mirage 4000. ”
The French are also doing it? It seems that the Soviet Union should start as soon as possible, stealing is definitely not possible, only through secret diplomatic channels, get back from Iraq. ≦≧
At present, the relations between the Soviet Union and Iraq are relatively harmonious. Although there was almost a large-scale armed conflict last time, the Soviet Union did not invade northern Iran in the end, and the last time it ended up being just a misunderstanding, and Iraq was still receiving a steady stream of weapons exported by the Soviet Union, and Iraq needed the help of the Soviet Union.
So, let Iraq sell parts of captured F14 fighters that they also can't use but sell scrap metal. It shouldn't be difficult to sell or give to the Soviet Union, right?
"The information you provided this time is very important, the great Soviet Union needs such an excellent swallow as you." The head of the KGB's intelligence agency in Baghdad looked at Sharapova's back as she went out. Said.
You, the person in charge of the intelligence agency, are incompetent, you have been stared at by the Iraqi intelligence agency for so long, and you don't even know it, Sharapova heard the words behind her while walking, and she couldn't help but feel a little disdain for the other party in her heart, and besides, she has become a double agent, and she is already working for Iraq, and these KGB guys have not found out at all. ≦≧
Tehran Air Base while undertaking combat readiness duty tasks, while also cleaning up the hangar caused by the last bombing was blown up in a large area, finally, in the final cleanup, found that there were several Iranian Tomcat fighters inside, but, all of them were used as organ donations, and were dismantled by Iranian ground crews, which made Iraqi personnel very much admired the work ability of Iranian ground crews, and they actually relied on this way to interrupt the supply of spare parts for several years. A small number of these powerful fighters are still being maintained.
When the news came to Qusay, he keenly felt that he could use the parts of these incomplete F14 fighters to reap some benefits.
These fighters that entered service with the Iranian Air Force in 1977 are not outdated at all, and the AG9 radar and immortal bird missiles on board are quite advanced weapon systems, and their advanced degree is probably not comparable to that of the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union's MiG-25 at the same time, although the radar power is powerful enough, it cannot be seen clearly, and it cannot be used to guide missiles with a range of more than 100 kilometers. ≦≧
So, in line with the principle of waste utilization, Qusay began to use his brains and exchange these things with the Soviets! Since the last incident, Cusai's most exciting thing is the MiG-29's helmet sight and the R73 large off-axis close-range combat missile, if you can use these tattered F14, exchange these two things back, and install them on the Mirage 4000, it is definitely a trembling existence, the Mirage 4000 will comprehensively surpass the F15, in medium-range air combat and close-range combat, will not fall behind!
Of course, Qusay will definitely not take the initiative to go to the Soviets, in this case, the negotiations on Qusay will not be able to go on at all, after all, helmet sights and R73 missiles are things that the Soviets have only been equipped with for a long time, and according to the character of the Soviets, it is simply impossible to export them in such a short time.
You have to let the Soviets take the initiative to find themselves, and then they will ask for a sky-high price, and in an instant, Qusay naturally thought of letting his life secretary go to deliver a message to the Soviet side, and for a few months, the KGB is probably urging her to ask for information again, right? So, Qusay sent Ajelina to the Soviets to pass the news, and then it was up to the Soviets to react.
After getting the news from Baghdad, the KGB attached great importance to the last confrontation between the MiG-29 fighter and the Iraqi fighter, it was revealed that although the MiG-29 radar was already the most advanced pulse Doppler radar in the Soviet Union, it was still backward compared with the radar of Western countries, and the radar of the F14 fighter of the Iranian Air Force, through all-round understanding, they already knew that although this radar has been in service for five years, it is still ahead of the Soviet Union's products, and the Soviet Union wants to take its airborne radar technology one step further. It is very important to get the AG9 radar to do research, and now the Soviet Union's MiG-31 long-range interceptor has begun to enter service, but the research and development of the corresponding ultra-long-range air-to-air missile is still lagging behind.
So, after learning that Iraq had obtained these good things, the Soviet ambassador to Iraq, Barkovsky, accepted the order to negotiate with His Excellency Qusay, hoping to bring back one for study.
After the order from above, Barkovsky had little confidence, although he had done that great thing last time and gave the Soviet Union a huge amount of military exports, but at the same time, Barkovsky also learned that His Excellency Qusay in Iraq was definitely not so easy to fool, and every time he dealt with His Excellency Qusay, he felt that it was even more difficult than going to the battlefield.
This time, he was also mentally prepared to come to see His Excellency Qusay.
"Your Excellency Qusay, thank you for the last time in the airspace north of Iran, your air force was able to exercise restraint and did not cause misunderstandings." Barkovsky said he felt that starting with this would go a little better.
"Yes, your air force equipment is somewhat backward, otherwise how could it be lost to Iran for more than 200 kilometers without noticing." Qusay said.
That's the most advanced fighter on our side, how can it be lost and outdated! Barkovsky did not pay attention to Qusay's words, and continued: "As we said last time, the Soviet Union and Iraq are two countries with a great friendship, and we cherish this friendship very much, and the occasional misunderstanding is nothing. ”
"Yes, we in Iraq also attach great importance to our friendship with the Soviet Union, especially the OTP23 missiles that your country generously exported to us, which shows our friendship." Qusay said.
Both sides have implications, it's just that what Barkovsky wants to say next, Kusai knows, and what Kusai wants to say, Barkovsky doesn't know.
Barkovsky was very happy to hear Kusay say this, since it was said that the Soviet Union generously exported it to them, then, as a symbol of friendship, it would be better to simply give the F14 to the Soviet Union.
And what Qusay means is that since a precedent has been set and advanced surface-to-surface missiles can be provided to Iraq, why not advanced helmet sights and R73 missiles?
