Dominate South Asia

If it weren't for the severe economic crisis in Great Britain and the drastic reduction in military spending, the Navy would have to sell its warships if it wanted to maintain normal operations, especially this Type 82 destroyer. The maintenance costs are high, and the Navy must get rid of this burden. .

The only potential customer left is Pakistan. Although Pakistan has purchased two Type 42 destroyers, it does not mean that Pakistan has no purchase demand. On the contrary, this shows that Pakistan attaches great importance to the Sea Javelin air defense missile, and Pakistan We still want to imitate it!

what to do? Edward looked at Hamad in front of him and said: "What we are discussing now is the export of warships. If you are interested in our British-made warships, please show your sincerity."

"I also ask you to show sincerity." Mhammad said: "The price of a decommissioned warship is higher than the manufacturing price. We in Pakistan are not taken advantage of like India."

"Then how much do you plan to pay?" Edward asked: "In short, we will never agree to five million US dollars."

"Our purchase of Argentina's Type 42 destroyer is US$4.5 million." Hamad said: "Your Type 82 is slightly larger than the Type 42. We can pay up to US$7 million, plus sea We are willing to pay US$10 million for all the technology of the Javelin missile, which is the bottom line we can afford.”

Last time, the other party asked for a high price, and Mhamad lowered the price casually. This time, the British came again, and Mhammad raised the price, assuming that he would sell it if it was sold, and he would pull it down if he didn't sell it.

In fact, although Pakistan boasts that it will imitate the sea dart gun in Haikou, if it is really imitated. There will still be many difficulties. If three million dollars can buy the technology of the Haidarin missile, it will be absolutely worth it.

"No, US$10 million is just the price to buy our Type 82 destroyer. If you want to buy the technology of our Sea Dart missile, you need to add US$10 million."

Hamad frowned: "No, sell both together. We can add another one million US dollars at most, eleven million, including the Bobcat helicopter above."

Mhammad solemnly said: "This is the highest price we have given. In fact, we already have two Type 42s. We are not very interested in your retired Type 82. We in Pakistan do not have enough funds." "Rich, more than 10 million US dollars is our limit. After all, this is not a new warship, it is just a warship that you have retired."

Edward wanted to answer generously, that's impossible, it's too cheap! but. He did not say this. More than ten million US dollars, although it was half less than the predetermined selling price, was still a valuable fund for the Navy. Due to the slow allocation of funds by the Ministry of National Defense, the Navy was afraid that Even next month's military expenditures have to be delayed. I'm afraid it will arouse the resentment of the navy soldiers.

"I'm asking for instructions from China. The price you offered is too low. I'm afraid we won't be able to accept it," Edward said.

Watching the British ambassador go out, Mhamad showed a smile on his face. If it weren't for the economic crisis in the UK, the British would definitely not sell this Type 82 destroyer in future generations. Although this warship was also decommissioned in 1987, it was turned into a training ship.

But now, the British want to sell it. Looking around the world, only the Pakistan Navy has this demand. Just in time, Zhou Yu hit the yellow cover.

"The British are afraid that the price is too low." Mushaaf said to Mhamad.

"The most they can raise is one to two million US dollars. It's worth it for us to get the technology of the Sea Darwin missile." Mhamad said: "Although the Sea Darrel missile is only for emergency use, it is something we can get immediately. The regional air defense missiles have been put into use. Our aircraft carrier formation cannot be without regional air defense missiles, and the technology of Sea Dart missiles is quite advanced."

The Sea Dart uses a liquid ramjet engine, so its flight speed of Mach 3.5 is not the fastest flight speed, but a constant cruising speed.

Ordinary missiles use solid rocket motors, such as most air-to-air missiles. Therefore, within a few seconds after launch, the missile's engine has burned out, and subsequent flights will be unpowered inertial flight. , the speed is getting slower and slower, and this ramjet engine is always providing power. Therefore, although the Sea Dart missile takes a long time to warm up, after it is actually launched, it rushes to the target very quickly.

At this stage, the Seadart is still a good choice, and the Yankees are really fucked up. They just don’t sell standard anti-aircraft missiles to themselves.

The Seadart is only a temporary emergency. Hamad's final plan is of course Pakistan's own imitation of the Patriot missile. This missile has advanced performance and has been improved by the Americans, but it is intended to be used as a theater defense system.

Thinking of this, Mhamad said: "Let's go and see how our imitation Patriot missile project is going."

Hamad has many things to do every day, and there are tens of thousands of projects in the country. It is impossible to understand all kinds of projects very clearly. When he came back from the Eastern countries a few years ago, he brought some technical personnel from the Eastern countries and started to work on them. Pakistan is carrying out plans to imitate Patriot missiles.

The focus of the plan is naturally the electronic system used by the Patriot missile, including phased array radar, high-speed processing computers and control algorithms, as well as the semi-active guidance head of the missile. These are the core parts of the missile. It is an arduous process to conduct reverse mapping without any technical data.

"Okay." Mushaaf replied, and followed Muhammad out of the presidential palace.

Babel Test Center in northern Islamabad.

Two years ago, Pakistan launched a high-tech project center called Babel to study various high-tech technologies and drive the development of productivity through technological development, just like China's 863 plan.

This is an eight-story technology center, where Pakistani and Chinese technicians are busy.

At the beginning, the Americans wanted to get involved and help Pakistan improve their high-tech technology, but they were politely rejected by Pakistan, and the Americans did not think more about it. Pakistan, what high-tech? It's just a joke. High-tech requires continuous precipitation and accumulation. Pakistan simply does not have this ability!

It was not until later that Pakistan developed stealth technology that the Americans were impressed. With Pakistan's industrial level, it is impossible to make breakthroughs in all projects, but if the country concentrates its main strength and attacks one or two aspects, it will still be rewarding.

When he came here, Muhammad felt proud. If Pakistan wants to develop, it must be backed by high technology. The most advanced technology cannot be expected from foreign countries. It must be developed by itself! Foreign technology is reserved.

Here, Pakistan's strong hopes are placed!

Walked into the building, took the elevator, and went straight to the top floor.

The security work on the top floor is more stringent, and the guards are absolutely armed. Seeing President Muhammad coming, the guards immediately saluted excitedly.

Muhammad returned the salute, and looked at the password entered in the password lock, and the door of the floor opened. This is the most confidential place.

Entering the interior of the floor, you can see that there is a huge test bench in the front hall. At this time, countless technicians are on the test bench, holding electric soldering irons in their hands, soldering circuit boards.

Due to confidentiality, the circuits designed here cannot be outsourced to factories outside. Pakistan's electronic technology is very advanced. At the same time, there are American spies in those factories. Therefore, the circuit boards used here are all manually welded. After the trial production is successful, they will be secretly produced by special factories.

As an electronic engineer, welding circuit boards is a basic skill.

On the other side, there are rows of computers. Using computers for design can be seen frequently in various industries in Pakistan.

The air is filled with the smell of rosin. Muhammad looked over and saw a girl sitting in front of a computer in the distance. She was wearing a work suit from the Babel Project Center. Although he didn't see her face, Muhammad could recognize her in an instant. This person must be Bai Xue.

"President." A Pakistani researcher looked up and saw that it was Muhammad. Suddenly, he was happy in his heart. The president came to inspect!

Muhammad smiled and nodded: "Well, everyone continue to work."

President? Hearing this voice, Bai Xue turned her head from her seat and saw Muhammad.

Since the last time I came to Pakistan, I only met Muhammad once, and then I came here. After that, Bai Xue secretly dismantled the American Patriot missile system, studied and mapped it here, and she has not seen Muhammad again.

This time, when I saw Muhammad again, this tall man became stronger, and he showed a kind of confidence and domineering in his gestures. Now, India has been weakened by Pakistan, and Pakistan's development and growth is inevitable. All this is the credit of this man in front of him.

Muhammad was also looking at Bai Xue. Bai Xue is now in her youth, with short hair, big eyes, and long eyelashes. Although she works here day and night, as a girl who loves beauty, she also does not forget to dress herself up neatly. The whole person is more capable and calm. At this time, she is already the person in charge of researching important projects in Pakistan, and manages hundreds of people.

"President Muhammad, you are here?" Bai Xue said to Muhammad, gathering her bangs in front of her eyes with her hands. This action is full of feminine charm. (To be continued ~^~)
