"Chairman, we have reached an agreement with the three ministries and the Air Force. On the basis that the Soviet Union has not attached any political intention, we can import a batch of MiG-23 fighter jets to the Soviet Union. It is best to send our personnel now. Go to Moscow for inspection." General Xu, Minister of Defense, took a thick stack of documents, and brought the minister of the Third Aircraft Department and the person in charge of Shen Fei to report to Duke Deng.
"Oh? Now that it has been decided, let's go to Moscow to investigate." Deng Gong said: "Although we want to grasp economic construction as soon as possible, our military construction cannot be slowed down. We have this opportunity to improve our military. Equipment, we're going to grab it."
Of course, this time is of great significance. The visit to the Soviet Union is a step to open the iceberg. The differences between the two sides have been eliminated, and the threat from the north has disappeared. For China, the first one can reduce the army by one million, which will Save a lot of military expenses! Moreover, if this transaction can be reached, Duke Deng's trip to Moscow can also be prepared.
Knocking on the table with the pen cap, Duke Deng thought for a while and continued: "What about the United States? We can't completely trust the Soviet side. How is the performance of the American fighter jets?"
Of course, what Duke Deng considered was more far-sighted strategic issues. Now, the first to extend an olive branch to China is the United States! The United States has promised to provide China with a large number of weapons, almost all of which are free of charge. Although Huaxia did not approve it in that way, the door to the West has been opened, and Huaxia can buy weapons from the United States at any time. In this case, you have to shop around, right?
Hearing Duke Deng's question, General Xu coughed. He didn't think about importing it from the United States, so he was not familiar with the intelligence of American military aircraft. After turning his head and looking at it, as if he understood his request for help, Mr. Tang, the person in charge of Shen Fei, immediately came up and said, "Chairman Report, we have also studied the fighter jets provided by the Americans. Their F-16 fighter jets seem to be better than the Soviet Union's. They are more advanced. Their fighters use the latest design concepts in the 1970s, with side strips, wing-body fusion, and static instability. These are the most advanced technologies, while the MiG-23 provided by the Soviets is It is the technology of the 1960s, and no matter how improved it is, it cannot be compared with the most advanced fighters in the United States. So, I think we can also consider the American F-16.”
"Yes, Chairman, the Soviet Union is a huge threat to us, and now it's coming to show its favor to us. We can't just blindly believe in our big brother as before. Since the United States can provide us with advanced fighter jets, we are considering the Soviet Union. At the same time as the human MiG-23, we should also examine the American F-16 at the same time to see which fighter is the most suitable for us." Beside him, the minister of the three aircraft department also said.
In an instant, Mr. Tang knew that it seemed that the Minister of the Three Machines Department had also met with the Americans. However, he carefully looked at the aircraft data. If it is really as described by these data, the performance of this F-16 fighter is really good. Don't look at anything else, just the overall cockpit cover and side stick driving. Advanced, you can also perform 9G overload!
Hearing the words of the two, General Xu frowned immediately: "Our current system is still the Soviet-style system. If it is imported from the United States, the entire system will be changed, and more funds need to be invested, and, in case, If the U.S. attitude towards us changes in the future and does not provide us with more logistical support, then we will be in trouble.”
The older generation will never forget how the Americans have dealt with China over the years, resisting the U.S. aggression and aid Korea, that is, directly fighting with the United States! Now, the reason for the two sides to stand together is to fight against the Soviet Union, and if the Soviet Union gave up its attitude towards China, why would China need to be the bridgehead of the United States? The introduction of American fighter jets will be controlled by others at any time in the future.
What happened to these two? Before coming, did you discuss the issue of American fighter jets?
"General Xu, we're not saying that we must introduce it. We're saying that we can compare the two and choose the best option. Now, both the United States and the Soviet Union are trying to win us over, isn't it our chance?" said the minister of the three-machine department.
"Yes, now is our opportunity." Duke Deng said: "We can simultaneously inspect the American fighter jets and the Soviet fighter jets. So, Shen Fei will go to inspect the MiG-23, and Cheng Fei will send someone to inspect the American F-16. ."
fly away? Hearing this sentence, Mr. Tang was stunned for a moment. No, Cheng Fei went to investigate. What if those people in Cheng Fei were not satisfied? And once it is introduced, it will be inspected by Chengfei. What if the production of fighter jets is located in Chengfei?
"Chairman of the report, this trip abroad is a rare opportunity. When we open the door to the world, we can broaden our horizons. The model of the Soviet Union is completely different from that of the United States. Are we only the same group of people who inspected rice at the same time? Can the G-23 and F-16 be compared?" Mr. Tang said cautiously.
Shen Fei must be given the opportunity to go to the United States. Only the same group of people can make an objective analysis!
so? Duke Deng thought for a while, and said, "Okay, that's right, then Shen Fei and Cheng Fei, each will send some people to go to the United States first, then go to Moscow!"
Shooting yourself in the foot, originally, the introduction of fighter jets this time has nothing to do with Chengfei, but now it seems that no matter what the outcome is, Chengfei has been wiped out! After leaving the office, Mr. Tang was still extremely depressed.
"Chairman, I still think that we can't trust the Americans, at least our national defense and security cannot let the Americans intervene." General Xu did not leave, he still wanted to lobby Deng Gong, from the point of view of the military, he was unwilling to equip American fighter jets!
After all, is imported from the United States. First, the price is high. Second, the United States will not export everything. Engines and avionics are imported from the United States in whole batches. A conflict with the United States would at any time ground fighter jets for lack of spare parts.
"If we want to go abroad, we want to emancipate our minds. Whether it's a surname of a capital or a surname of a society, if it's beneficial to us, we'll take it over." Duke Deng lit a cigarette and said to General Xu.
"In short, our army will not be equipped with US-made weapons. The danger in the middle is too great." General Xu continued. As an absolute supporter of Duke Deng, General Xu will not give in on issues of principle.
"Old Xu, why don't you understand?" Duke Deng took a puff of cigarette and said to General Xu: "We don't want to go to the United States to go around, how can we press the price of the Soviets? Our country is poor, and we are poor. Change, we have to spend the least cost to bring in the most suitable fighter jets. This is a daunting task, and you must do your best! Also, the Soviet Defense Minister Ustinov likes to drink very much. , this time to visit the Soviet Union, the wine field is like a battlefield, you must be prepared."
"Yes!" General Xu's words were full of joy. (To be continued.) To find this site, please search for "" or enter the URL:
