When I heard a quote of US$150 million for a missile battalion, I almost couldn't hold back the money and just leaked it; this guy is too shady! Although people in the Middle East are said to be stupid and have a lot of money, they don't waste it like this! You have to know that just buying missile defense

To control missiles, Saudi Arabia would have to spend 2.4 billion U.S. dollars, and Iraq would have to pay the Soviet Union 1.8 billion U.S. dollars. What is the concept? If the missiles were allocated to the Soviet military, not even a third of them might be used.

But what the principal didn't expect was that Prince Sultan thought about it and said: "The price is not a problem. We can pay for the goods at any time; but we hope to get the goods as soon as possible."

It's really puzzling that people from the Middle East would really agree.

Regarding this point, Ustinov is quite understanding. After all, he is worried that the Americans will interfere with it. After all, Saudi Arabia still relies on the United States in many places.

Ustinov Jr.: "If the deal is concluded today, the first batch of four missile battalion equipment from each company will arrive in Saudi Arabia and Iraq within two weeks; at the same time, relevant technical personnel will also come with them."

"I know the pressure that Saudi Arabia and Iraq are facing, so I will give the anti-aircraft missiles originally allocated to the Far East Military Region to Saudi Arabia and Iraq for priority use."

After Prince Sultan and the Second Young Master exchanged glances, he immediately said: "Just follow what General Ustinov said, and we can sign the contract now."

I heard that the Saudis signed the contract directly without even paying back the price. I really don’t know what to say, but if someone buys weapons and equipment developed by himself, he is also making a contribution to the country.

The Soviet Union has made a lot of concessions. After all, it would rather not equip itself, but also give priority to supplying Iraq and Saudi Arabia. Combined with the anger it has received from American companies in the past two days, it is a high-level decision.

The second son of Iraq continued: "General Ustinov, our two countries also want to purchase a batch of bombers. I heard that your country's Tu-22m Backfire bombers have superior performance. Saudi Arabia is planning to purchase 12 of them, and Iraq is purchasing 8.

At the same time, the two countries also want to purchase your Il-76 transport aircraft; Saudi Arabia has 8 aircraft and Iraq has 6 aircraft.”

As a large bomber fighter, this number is really quite a lot, especially for a country whose land area is not particularly large. Transport aircraft Both countries have ground-effect aircraft, and their numbers are also quite large.

Ustinov Jr. smiled and said: "No problem, we will give priority to the air forces of the two countries. The Soviets have always been good at making friends. They would rather suffer a loss themselves than put their friends in danger."

"The Soviet Union will allocate some bomber fighters and transport aircraft from the active military and deliver them to the two countries. These are mainly to train pilots, and then when new aircraft are produced, they will immediately deliver the brand-new aircraft to Saudi Arabia and Iraq."

It's like practicing with a friend's car, and then buying a new car after you can drive it yourself. This kind of friend is quite interesting, at least much better than his American counterpart.

Prince Sultan was greeted with a smile: "It is comfortable to do business with Ustinov. We can definitely increase our cooperation. It seems that we need to go to Moscow to see what products can be shipped back to the Middle East."

As a Saudi prince, he is also a powerful figure in the country, but few people visit Moscow. Now speaking of this, both diplomacy and political influence in the international community will be extremely huge.

Little Ustinov smiled and said: "I look forward to the arrival of the prince and his second son."

Although Saudi Arabia has spent a lot recently and the country is investing heavily in infrastructure construction, its defense spending has been increasing year by year. Fortunately, this is funds that have been set aside long ago. The royal family can reduce the quality of life; but defense spending must not be reduced.

After all, this is a matter of wealth and life, and no one can ignore it.

Just when all the major airlines were putting on their best performances, it suddenly came out that Saudi Arabia and Iraq together purchased more than 7 billion US dollars in weapons and equipment from the Soviet Union. This included anti-aircraft missiles, bomber fighters, and transport aircraft. What is this concept?

It directly regenerated the Soviet military industry. It can even be said that the previous suppression of the Soviet military industry became a joke.

And this is only the first day of the transaction. Could it be that the Soviets are planning to do something big this time. Iraq is okay, but Saudi Arabia, a staunch supporter of the US military industry, can at most purchase some French fighter jets. Now it actually purchases weapons and equipment directly from the Soviet Union.

Are you ready to lean towards the Soviet Union?

At this time, the expressions of the major aircraft manufacturing companies in the United States can be described as very exciting. It is unexpected that such a large customer as Saudi Arabia would be lost. This is not what it should be, but the one with the most atmosphere is undoubtedly Little MacDonald.

As for General Dynamics and Raytheon, they still don’t know what’s going on at this time. But the involvement of Iraq has made them aware of something. As military industry giants, of course they are aware of the subtle relationship between Iraq and Saudi Arabia. Especially now that the second son of Iraq, the same

The Saudi royal family is even more passionate.

Saudi Arabia must also know the attitude of the two companies towards Iraq. Except for Little Macdonald, the other two companies do not know that Prince Sultan is involved in the negotiations. But there were so many Middle Easterners yesterday, there is no guarantee that there will be no

Members of the Saudi royal family.

At this time, Lieutenant General Braun happened to come to McDonnell Douglas. However, Little MacDonald did not give him back; after all, he was still young and could not hide something.

McDonald Jr.: "General Braun, is this the result you want? The Arabs are rich, and the current market competition is very fierce, with many choices. The gap between the military products of the United States and the Soviet Union is not as big as yours."

Think about how big it is. When we voluntarily give up customers, others will naturally choose the Soviet Union."

"Originally, McDonnell Douglas could earn more than US$300 million in profits, but because of the military's interference, it is now benefiting the Soviets in vain, and the US military industry will decline sooner or later."

"This decline is not due to lack of ability, but because of the military's interference. I hope you will report clearly on the situation here after returning to the United States. Those executives in Washington can't always think about problems with their buttocks."

It can be said that Little Macdonald was not polite at all, and directly scolded Lieutenant General Braun. But at this time, the American general was very restrained and said nothing. However, he will definitely hold a grudge in his heart, and I guess there will be more in the future.

Opportunity; he will definitely cause trouble for McDonnell Douglas. Later, facts proved that they will indeed take revenge.

As for Raytheon, Zebulon deliberately humiliated the second son of Iraq yesterday and plans to report it to the vice president of the board of directors. Before it is reported, the board of directors has already called to inquire. If a customer as big as Saudi Arabia was lost on the first day, something must be done.

Know what's going on.

At this time, Zebulon really didn't know what to say. Could it be that Iraq came to buy anti-aircraft missiles on its own initiative? Not only did it offer a very high price, it was even willing to exchange the oil field. If you don't agree to this, isn't that a mental illness?

!

Hearing that the second master couldn't give an answer, the atmosphere in the board of directors was very tense. Anyone who knew a little bit about Zebulon knew that he must be the one causing the damage. For two days in a row, the second son of Iraq came to buy missiles, and Raytheon Company

staff; but they have all been registered. Now even if I want to deny it, it is simply impossible.

Could it be that they did not sell anti-aircraft missiles to the Arabs because they were worried about the losses of the Israeli Air Force? There seems to be no such reason in the world. Raytheon needs to make profits, not to protect anyone for the sake of losing profits.

After understanding the situation, Raytheon's board of directors immediately made a decision; Zebulon was dismissed on the spot, and the headquarters would send someone to Paris to take charge of the work.

At this time, Steiner Crouch was also confused. Saudi Arabia and Iraq reached a deal with the Soviets so quickly; what on earth was going on.

It doesn't matter to Iraq. Saudi Arabia is a major customer of General Dynamics. Now it went directly to the Soviet Union to purchase aircraft. Could there be some misunderstanding here?

He came here with a mission, whether he can take over as CEO in the future; the Paris Air Show is very important, and there is no room for sloppiness. Now if he does it like this on the first day, then the board of directors will definitely question his ability, and he will probably do so for the rest of his life.

It's impossible to become the CEO of General Dynamics.

On the first day of the air show, the exhibitor that attracted the most attention was definitely the Soviet Union. No one thought that Saudi Arabia and Iraq would be so powerful, with a large order worth billions of dollars.

But it's too late to say anything now. We can only wait until the evening to find out the situation; this kind of thing must not happen again. At this time, the United States is ready to put pressure on Saudi Arabia and must not purchase Soviet weapons and equipment.

But this is doomed to fail, because the Saudis have already prepared relevant evidence. By then, American politicians will inevitably have troubles and will have no choice but to knock out their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs!
