"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Cusay, our agreement has to be terminated temporarily, and I'm very sorry. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ≦≧"Dr. Cassin said, "There is a domestic order that I have to go back. ”

The Americans on the production line of the Basra F-20 have all left, and Dr. Kashin is the last American to leave, and the head of the American Northrop side here, unknowingly, has been in Iraq for two years.

This time, because of the relationship with Iraq, the United States announced that it would completely terminate its cooperation with Iraq in all aspects, especially the F-20 fighter plane, the largest foreign project of the Northrop Company, which was a national defense project, and had to be temporarily terminated.

In the past two years, this project in the Middle East has become Northrop's biggest profit, and success has made a great difference in the company's appearance, especially when they come to the Middle East, Iraq will give them an additional amount of money, which makes everyone in the company squeeze their heads and want to travel to Iraq.

And the order for the production line in Iraq has been scheduled for at least a few years later, when the company will upgrade these fighters, which is another big income. ≦≧

But now they have to terminate the contract because of the ban in the United States.

Thinking that the company has since withdrawn from the Middle East, Kashin feels very sorry, but he has to carry it out, because he is first and foremost an American.

"We are very grateful for your help in the past two years, and I believe that we will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future." Qusay said.

"I'm also looking forward to this opportunity." Kashin said.

Kashin left, and Cusay convened a symposium with senior heads and technicians of the F-20 base.

"The United States has always used sanctions as a magic weapon, and this time it has imposed sanctions on us, trying to put the military industrial complex that we have just established into a desperate situation, although we have processing equipment. But there are no raw materials, what do you think about these difficulties? Kusai asked confidently, though not in a high tone. ≦≧

"After two years of processing, we have mastered the cāo operation and use of all the machinery, and we are fully confident that we can still build fighters even without the Americans, and the raw materials we have in stock for the time being can still produce raw materials that we cannot produce ourselves for several months. We will gradually produce it and establish our supporting manufacturers, and we will definitely have the ability to produce this fighter independently. "The general head of the Iraqi side of the F-20. Farrouge Faisal, an Arab engineer who has worked for McDonnell Douglas in the United States for more than ten years and became the deputy chief designer, said.

"For us, we will definitely overcome difficulties to complete the production program of F-20 fighters, and not only equip our Iraqi Air Force. It will also be exported to our Arab brothers. Another engineer said.

Qusay is a little worried that Iraq's current industrial level is not high, after all, and it is not easy to go from nothing to support the current stall. In particular, Iraq lacks a strong industrial country's talent pool and R&D capabilities. So they took a very special approach: poaching people from developed countries! As long as they are of Arab nationality. They are all trying to dig it back, because many of them have their own lofty ideals because of Qusay's prestige. ≦≧ came to Iraq.

Qusay remembered that the great powers of the East were only agricultural countries before the founding of the country, but they carried forward the principle of not being afraid of hardship. Second, Jing God, who is not afraid of death, went through the first five-year plan. It has built a modern industrialized country, which is very similar to Iraq, Iraq has the beginning stage of absorbing foreign technology, and now it has reached a height, it is time to digest, absorb and integrate this process, as long as Iraq survives this time, it will inevitably usher in a new take-off! In the face of adversity, it can stimulate the fighting spirit of scientific and technological workers, and Qusay is full of confidence in them.

"We're not alone." Qusay said: "Although Western countries have imposed an arms embargo on us, but our door to the outside world has not been closed, at least we are now in technology research and development, and we have been very close to Chengfei of the eastern powers, and we are more experienced in imitating them, and now Chengfei's modified Super Seven fighter is still cooperating with us, right?" ”

"Yes, there are still two Super Seven that are being prepared for modification, but the United States refuses to provide avionics, even if this batch of aircraft is shipped to Pakistan, they are afraid that we have installed our F-20 fighters. ≦≧*" Farrug said.

"The avionics system of the fighter is the key, we are the introduction of American avionics in a complete set, and now we need to understand the principle of this set of avionics for independent production." "I will let the team led by Joseph fully devote themselves to the localization of our avionics, and the components in it can be replaced by French and Chinese goods, and we will also get the cooperation of foreign R&D teams, so that we will not be stuck in avionics," Kusai said. ”

The aircraft can be divided into three major parts: fuselage engines and avionics, now Iraq can produce a complete fuselage, some of the blanks that need to be imported from the United States can also be replaced by the Soviet Union, this is not a problem, and the engine Kussai has already gotten the production line of the F404 engine in advance, although it needs to import more components from the United States, but Iraq can still be solved by the Soviet Union to provide raw materials and process it itself, only avionics avionics has always been a full set of introductions, the reason why the advanced F-20 fighter is inseparable from the advanced avionics. The Super Seven fighter is also strengthened because of this set of avionics.

This is also a powerful aspect of US sanctions, and it is also a sore spot for Northrop, they are now making money by exporting this!

For avionics, Cusai has always been more important, so he has been actively promoting the development of this project, and it is very difficult to make Iraq have nothing to develop into an electronics giant, so he took another path, let Sarah buy Ousheng Electronics, start with civilian projects, gradually develop and grow, and finally enter the military industry. ≦≧

Sarah has been very successful, and the company has grown into a giant in the electronics industry.

Although the United Kingdom has also imposed an embargo on Iraq, it does not include the civilian aspect, nor does it include other countries in the Middle East, such as the electronic components that Iraq needs can be transported through Saudi Arabia.

Moreover, Iraq has already transported a set of F-14 fighter jets to the eastern powers, and together with the technical personnel of that country, they have thoroughly studied and copied them on this basis.

Iraq must overcome this problem! Even if none of this can be achieved, Cusay can turn to France to install French avionics, although it is not as advanced as the United States, and the production of the F-20 can continue.

Having unified the issue of the production line of the F-20, which was of greatest concern to Qusay, Qusay inspected the production line of the Mirage 4000, a project that was in cooperation with the French side, and at such a moment, France showed its good friendship with Iraq and said to the US sanctions that France could provide to Iraq whatever it needed.

In this, Qusay knows that the so-called friendship between France and Iraq is probably as much as a feather at best, and more importantly, the naked interests are not entirely to blame for this matter, anyway, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Iraq is not completely blamed, and the sanctions are only within NATO under the promotion of the United States, and France is not a NATO country, so they don't take that sanction seriously at all. Now Iraq wants to buy weapons from the West, and the only way to buy weapons is to import them from France, which can make a lot of money.

However, Qusay has no other way, because the best heavy air supremacy fighter that Iraq can get now is probably the Mirage 4000, and now, as Iraq has completely moved towards confrontation with the Israeli column, the two sides may be tense at any time, and there may be an air war at any time, Iraq must increase the proportion of the Mirage 4000 in its own fleet, so as to be able to compete with the F-15 air superiority fighter in the Sè column, you must know that the F-15 is a fighter that has served in the US Air Force for decades, whether it is a close-range combat or a long-distance interception, Xing can be very outstanding, and the model and beauty that the Sè column has not shrunk at allThe only difference in the country's armament is the identification of friend or foe.

In the future battlefield, it is impossible to win the war without air supremacy, and Kusai is very aware of this.

Therefore, Qusay will try all kinds of ways to make the Mirage 4000 a sharp weapon, and even spent a high price to get the R-73 combat bullet and helmet sight from the Soviet Union, making this air superiority fighter more powerful

But another medium-range air-to-air missile, which Qusay preferred, flashed in the sky, as the prospects for British sanctions became less encouraging.

The Mirage 4000 is equipped with the Matra 530 missile, which is simply not comparable to the Sky Flash missile developed on the basis of the Sparrow missile, and Qusay has already signed a contract with British Space through Sarah, and the last 300 missiles are imported into the production line and produced by themselves.

But just as Iraq had paid a deposit of $10 million and received less than 50 of these missiles, the sanctions had already arrived, and the space company froze the contract.

All spare parts for the same No. 3 and No. 4 pre-jing machines had already arrived at sea, and while they were ready to be refitted, the British technicians retreated.

The Arab countries imposed an oil embargo on the UK, but because the UK had stepped up its efforts to develop its own oil fields, the Arab side did not have much influence.

Qusay has never suffered this kind of loss, he has already gotten along, the new countermeasures are not only Britain has a sky flash, another non-NATO country Sweden is developing an active sky flash, and now Iraq has to do it in one step!
