Chapter 124 Convince Saddam (2)

The Iranian tomcat is a living example. This sentence completely touched Saddam.

Saddam is naturally not a fool to climb to the highest peak of power. He knows that if it weren't for the American ban, the Iranian tomcats could have fully exerted their power, and their own air force would not be opponents at all.[]

The weapons imported from the Soviet Union were shrinking, and even the most advanced MiG-25, which fought with the Iranian Tomcat, would not take any advantage.

If the production line can be really introduced and the fighter jets can be produced by themselves, it will be very helpful to Iraq's dream of a great power. For example, the fighter jets produced by themselves can be exported to Middle Eastern countries with their own friendship and maintain a solid alliance, just like the Soviet Union exported weapons to Warsaw Pact countries.

Zhang Feng didn't know that Saddam was a mature politician. He could always see a step further than him when he thought about problems. Just when Zhang Feng was still thinking about importing production lines and localizing fighter jets, Saddam had already thought about exporting.

But is it appropriate to introduce American-made fighter jets? Saddam asked: "Currently, our equipment system is Soviet and legal. Can American-made fighter jets be integrated into our existing system? Also, can our country convene so many skilled technical workers?"

"Father, the key is whether you can make up your mind. As long as we take the first step firmly, then the second and third steps will go out. I believe that as long as we have the determination, we can succeed. We must not only achieve the production of our fighter jets, but also our tanks and artillery. A military power cannot rely on buying equipment. We must produce ourselves and improve ourselves. Our Iraq will definitely be a regional power!" Zhang Feng said loudly.

The words just now clearly touched Saddam. Zhang Feng knew about Saddam's ambitions, to be a big country, a big country that dominates the Middle East, and to be the leader of the Arab world!

Now, even Egypt, the boss of the Arab world, does not have a complete military industrial system, and all weapons are Soviet-style. Moreover, because of the unilateral peace talks with Israel, although Egypt has taken back the ownership of the Sinai Peninsula and will withdraw troops from the Sinai Peninsula next year, because of their actions, Egypt is no longer the big brother in the Arab world. Being the leader of the Arab world is of great attraction to Saddam.

But is it so easy to produce fighter jets by yourself? Regardless of whether the negotiation can be reached or not, even if it is done, it is impossible for all employees to hire foreigners, right? Can the domestics operate those advanced processing equipment?

Saddam's worries are not without reason, but these are specific operational problems. Zhang Feng believes that as long as he is willing to work hard, there will be a solution. Skilled technical workers can recruit some people with higher education from their own country, such as those who have been to middle school (most of them are illiterate in Iraq) and undergo strict training to solve the problem.

If you want to be a big country, you must be an industrialized country. You must have a complete weapon development and production system. When fighting, you must not look at others’ faces!

"Father, I believe that as long as we have confidence and courage, even if we don't have five years, then ten years will be there. In short, Iraq must have its own weapons industry. We must have our own tanks and our own aircraft. We must not just buy powerful national defense. Even if the Soviet Union, which has the strongest relationship with us, will the weapons provided to us be reduced?" Zhang Feng continued.

Saddam was full of thoughts. His son was indeed right. MiG-25. This kind of fighter jet that the Soviets believed was bought by themselves with great efforts. However, in order to prevent leaks, the Soviets were all ground staff and maintenance work done by Soviet consultants, and even at the beginning, they were driven by Soviet consultants. However, this kind of fighter jet could not confront Iran’s Tomcats at all.

Weapons are the powerful pillars of Iraq and must not be strangled by others.

Saddam finally made up his mind, "Okay, I agree with your plan to buy a production line in the United States, but how likely is this production line?"

"The highest possibility will not exceed 50%. " Zhang Feng said: "While introducing this kind of fighter production line from the United States, although this kind of fighter is exported, the United States is also very wary of us, and the Jewish forces in the United States will definitely interfere."

Saddam suddenly smiled. He had made such a great decision just now and finally agreed. Now, after Kusai said this, this matter may not be possible!

"In addition to the United States, we have another option, which is France." Zhang Feng continued: "We can negotiate with France to give some pressure to the Americans. Otherwise, these people will definitely put forward various difficult conditions for us. When we look for France, we invisibly told the Americans that it is not only they who can provide us with production lines."

The French are also a good choice. In Iraq's arsenal, many of them are legal weapons. Although they are more expensive than Soviet ones, they are of no quality. If there is one of the Iraqi-equipped aircraft that can compete with the Tomcats head-on, it is not the latest introduced legal Phantom F1.

"Father, if you agree, I would like to visit France in the near future to inspect France's military industry and discuss issues with their possible introduction of production lines." Zhang Feng said.

"But you should also know that we can't afford any money now," Saddam said. "When the refinery starts, our finances will be able to support the funds introduced."

That said, just as he wanted, Zhang Feng said: "Father, I have been working hard now. The refinery should be able to start construction in two months. When we introduce the production line, we will definitely not be able to negotiate soon. When we pay, we will definitely be able to pay the money. If we can't get it out then, the two neighbors of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia are willing to guarantee us and can pay the bill later."

"The war we are now in is resisting the infiltration of the entire Arab world, and they should help me, it is completely right." Saddam said: "I am very happy to hear this news."

Zhang Feng was shocked. He said this, not a good sign. Not only did he not be grateful for helping him, but he also felt that it was right?

It seems that any history has all kinds of necessities!
