1483 With such a plan, do you think the combat power is not strong enough?
"Start a navy?"
"No!"
"No!"
"No……"
When Samak heard Xie Kai's suggestion that Kuwait equip two missile frigates to form a navy, his head was shaking like a rattle.
He told Xie Kai righteously: "Xie, there is no need for Kuwait to establish a navy, as long as there are coast guards and patrol boats. Our area is not very powerful. Saudi Arabia has two fleets, both warships bought from you. They can completely encircle the maritime security of the entire Persian Gulf and defend against threats from the sea..."
Xie Kai looked at Samacko's strong reaction and was not ready to give up easily.
How can you get five billion dollars without warships?
"Samako, although the Navy seems to be used for maritime operations, the 053h3 frigate is different. It not only has air defense capabilities, but also has ground support capabilities, and also undertakes important tasks such as anti-ship and anti-submarine. The ground-red flag missiles above can fully cover the national territory and areas outside the border at sea, and can effectively defend your national security from the sea."
When Samacko heard this, she seemed to be so reasonable.
But Kuwait does not want a navy!
What do the navy do in that area of Kuwait?
"Thank you, although your suggestions are very good, our royal family and the Ministry of Defense do not have the idea of forming their own navy. Currently, the maritime guard can protect the safety of the sea..."
Samaco still disagrees with Xie Kai's suggestion.
What is the use of building a strong navy in Kuwait?
Do these navy look good at the doorstep?
Xie Kai said to Samako firmly: "No, Samako, the navy is very important to you Kuwait. Although the threat from the sea is not great, once the Persian Gulf appears again, your navy is fully capable of escorting oil tankers and cargo ships, and there will be no more large number of oil tankers attacks... If you had frigates that could support the ground before, would you be so passive when facing Iraqi invasion? Even now, you can fight back at sea and attack the Iraqi army that occupied Kuwait..."
Xie Kai persuaded Samako with great sincerity.
Just to get the other party to agree to purchase two 053h3 frigates.
In fact, he also knew that even if he sold two 053h3 to Kuwaits, he would not be able to keep the 5 billion US dollars of Kuwaits in China.
In order to pay more money from Kuwaitians' pockets, Xie Kai was already in a dilemma.
Now that Samaco doesn't want a warship, how can he do it?
"Samako, equipped with two missile frigates can not only support army operations, but also quickly support threatened tankers at sea to protect route safety... After having a fleet, you can also form a joint fleet with the Saudi Navy. This will not only further strengthen national defense forces, but also deter countries that have ambitions to invade you, but also have the right to speak..."
"Thank you, my friend, we really don't need a warship." Samarco was almost crying. Xie Kai was too much. But seeing Xie Kai was about to persuade him again, Samarco immediately spoke, "Don't worry, I will seriously consider your suggestions. I think it's better to negotiate the cooperation of weapons and equipment as soon as possible. Aren't you waiting to place an order? The troops we are about to reorganize are also waiting for equipment..."
Seeing that the other party disagreed, Xie Kai could only nod helplessly.
He knew he couldn't act too eagerly.
Although Samako has been appointed as Kuwait's new Minister of Defense and is responsible for forming Kuwait's resumption of the **, it is not easy to establish a navy and needs to be approved by the royal family.
Two 053h3 missile frigates, even if they increase the price by 50%, it will only cost 300 million US dollars.
It is impossible to sell submarines to Kuwait again.
Kuwait doesn't want submarines, it's already very good to be able to stuff two frigates.
As for aircraft carriers with higher cost, it is even less likely.
"Samako, for the organization of your country's troops, I have provided you with a plan, you can take a look."
Xie Kai handed over a document to Samacko.
The document is an Arabic text translated by Xie Kai from the Ministry of Commerce for help.
Although Xie Kai can speak Arabic, he cannot read and write Arabic characters. He only knows Arabic numerals and does not know any other letters.
Samaco took the document, looked at the various preparations and equipment on it, and then looked at Xie Kai in confusion: "Is this the plan you are asking for $200 million? Just a mixed composition brigade?"
"Yes, it is a mixed-organized brigade. According to your country's defense needs, the scale of the armed forces cannot be too large, and the mixed-organized brigade is the most suitable. In your country, only two mixed-organized brigades are as the main force, which is completely enough. One brigade has only a few thousand people. In addition to the air force, logistics support and National Guard, your country's entire national defense force can be compressed to less than 15,000 people, and its combat capabilities will be several times stronger than now."
Samaco listened to Xie Kai's explanation again, looking back at the specific organization and the weapons and equipment needed to be equipped.
The mixed synthesis brigade consists of the brigade headquarters battalion, three Butan mixed brigades and one tactical support battalion.
Each mixed synthetic battalion is equipped with two companies of 32 359 tanks and two companies of 32 363 armored vehicles. Each armored vehicle carries an infantry squad to cooperate in combat.
Samaco looked at the solution provided by Xie Kai, with a face full of confusion.
According to the organization provided by Xie Kai, the Kuwait army will no longer have a regiment system, and it looks very chaotic.
How to command?
He has no confidence in this plan.
I don’t know how much combat capability I can exert.
Xie Kai knew what Samarko was wondering.
Now all countries in the world are exploring the direction of war in the new era, and even the United States is not completely sure whether it is mainly battalions and brigades.
It will not be until after the outbreak of the Gulf War, in the subsequent wars, the United States will further reform the military organization through actual combat, which can improve the combat capability and rapid response of the troops, etc., and will eventually be tested in actual combat.
The Soviet Union and China have always had construction plans.
China has to wait until it enters the 21st century, sees the effects of the US team in actual combat, and explores the plan based on its own situation.
The solutions provided by Xie Kai to the Kuwaits were all added to sell more tanks and armored vehicles.
Just two mixed troops left the battalion, and there was no tactical support battalion...
Other air defenses, etc., are all company-level establishments.
"Mr. Samako, you have also seen our experimental troops that all the organization is mainly battalion so that it can be more flexible and mobile. As for the combat capability, it is also intuitively shown. The organization of this unit does not meet the brigade's organization, which can be regarded as a special reinforcement brigade... All organization will be abolished or strengthened according to the experimental results..."
The Blue Army's organization is not fixed, it is completely different from that in China, and there is no template even internationally.
Although the special reconnaissance battalion to tank battalion, armored battalion, support battalion, etc. are all organized by battalion, many battalions are not standard battalion.
Smaller units even use companies or platoons as combat units.
It is impossible for the entire Kuwait Defence Force to copy them completely, and use an experimental brigade to build their national defense.
The focus of the Blues is different.
"The entire army, except for the brigade battalion, is responsible for the protection and command system, is mainly engaged in three mixed battalions. Each battalion has 2 tank companies and 2 armored companies to fight in concert. The 3 mixed battalions require a total of 96 tanks, 96 armored vehicles, and one ground Hongqi missile battalion is responsible for supporting... The armed forces of the two brigades are sufficient for your country. It is not good to have too many equipment. The combat capability is much stronger than the current two divisions or even four divisions. It is used for offense, perhaps insufficient, and sufficient defense... Your country's population and land area do not require too many troops at all..."
Xie Kai looked completely considerate of Samacko.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to sell more tanks to Kuwait.
Kuwait is too small and too much equipment is useless.
The entire country's military does not need so many weapons and equipment at all.
In this case, Xie Kai cannot do his best to increase the number of equipment.
Samaco nodded with satisfaction.
He believes that such a plan is perfect for them.
Under the training of Chinese instructors, Kuwait's troops can also exert the combat capabilities he saw demonstrated by the mysterious unit.
There is one ground-based Hongqi missile battalion in the support battalion, each equipped with 18 missile launchers for long-range support, and 2 self-propelled howitzer companies, which has already had very strong firepower.
Xie Kai took great pains to raise $5 billion in equipment.
Even so, it is still not enough.
The 122mm self-propelled howitzer can only be equipped with up to 2 companies.
One company has 9 gun cars, one brigade is equipped with two companies, which is already very strong to support firepower.
The entire Kuwait is equipped with 38 doors.
Samaco felt that this was not enough.
"We need more artillery, tanks, and these are a little bit less."
Samako obviously doesn't want only this amount, Kuwait needs more heavy equipment to resist Iraq and drive these damn invaders away from Kuwait's territory.
Just this combat capability is simply impossible to drive away the Iraqi invaders on their territory.
Iraq has an army of 1.2 million people, 3,000 tanks and 750 combat aircraft.
Although Kuwait cannot equip the same number of armed forces as Iraq, it is absolutely impossible to equip only with such a small number of weapons.
Xie Kai looked at Samacko and thought to himself, do you think I don’t want to sell more equipment? But Kuwait’s country is too small and has a small population. Although it is rich, how can it be too much equipment?
Even though I think so in my heart, I can't show it on my face.
