Super military empire

"You have to work hard to determine if it is really not possible. Although Saudi Arabia has an American garrison, their royal family is not very satisfied with the United States' support for Israel, the enemy of the Arab world.

After Liu Su had finished speaking, he got up and left.

Under the protection of the security personnel of the presidential palace, he returned to his guest room in the presidential palace of Saddam and found that someone was waiting for him.

Even with tens of billions of debts owed during the Iran-Iraq War, the president of Iraq, one of the major oil-producing countries in the Middle East, still leads an extremely luxurious life.The Presidential Palace of Iraq, also known as the Palace of the Republic, the original Hashemite palace, covers an area of ​​17 square kilometers and is decorated with extravagance.

The guest room where Liu Suxue lived is not too far away from the palace where Saddam lived.

There are some people around him who have the privileges to get in and out of it. All of this is because they have bought a lot of weapons and equipment and even some technology for the Saddam government.

"The young master needs some materials of An-225, as well as the main structure design ideas, here is the list!" The visitor is very ordinary, so ordinary that no one can remember his appearance.

Liu Suxue frowned, looked at the visitor, and did not speak.

The visitors did not react at all, and said calmly at the end of the year, “They got Boeing’s lithium aluminum alloy production technology, but it seems that the current performance is not up to standard. At the same time, they got the most core honeycomb in the main structure design of Boeing-747. Structure. It seems that there is also integrated wing and body skinning technology. It is estimated that we want to integrate Soviet and American technology..."

The explanation is very detailed, there is nothing missing, and there is no more detailed introduction.

Of course, because of some uncertainty in the middle, all words like this were used.

"Is it anxious?" Liu Suxue asked after thinking for a moment.

"Not urgent."

"Are you in a hurry or don't know?"

"I don't know. I didn't say."

"Then it's anxious." Liu Suxue said vaguely, "This is not easy!"

The visitor stopped talking and seemed to be waiting for Liu Suxue's reply.

The whole room became quiet.

Liu Suxue started pacing back and forth in the room covered with wool carpets with his hands behind his back.

After a while, he said, "Tell the young master, give me six months and I will send the person back."

The visitor nodded, got up and left.

When I went out, I didn't see him doing too much, and I became an Arab, and the guard at the door never even looked at him.

"I want this at this time. It's not a life-threatening thing? Although Ukrainian officials are corrupt, the Soviet Union is keeping an eye on this thing!" Liu Suxue, who doesn't usually smoke, lit a cigar from Cuba.

He didn't smoke, just let the cigar burn, and then asked the taste.

Liu Yijiu's requirements can be said to be excessive, but for Liu Suxue, they are all things that must be done.

Just getting some related technologies, the problem is not too big.

Although it is very difficult, in Ukraine, you can solve the problem by just spending a little money or sending something out, but only by getting people through can it be faster.

It is not easy to get people to pass.

"It seems that things in Africa have to stop for a while." In the end, Liu Suxue made up his mind.

That night, I said goodbye to Saddam, saying that he was going to the Soviet Union to help them build the most advanced air defense missiles.

Saddam was naturally very happy. If Liu Suxue hadn't been able to help him get a lot of advanced Soviet weapons and equipment, these were secretly used for the expansion of the army.

The distance from Iraq to Ukraine is far enough, especially if it has to pass through Turkey and cross the Black Sea. Airplanes from Iraq passing through Turkish airspace were originally not allowed.Because Turkey is an ally of the United States, but under the operation of Liu Suxue, some special aircraft flying through Turkish airspace will be considered Turkey’s own aircraft.

Liu Suxue didn't tell anyone exactly how to do it, and every time he flew over here, he was counting the time.

"The huge fleet of aircraft crossing the Black Sea and crossing Turkish airspace is really too risky, especially if there is no fighter escort, if the opponent's fighter planes are pressing, this is not a good thing, the risk is too great. "When the plane crossed the Turkish airspace, Liu Suxue obviously saw two f-4 fighters flying outside the hanging window, and couldn't help but worry about how the huge Ukrainian bomber formation flew over Turkish airspace.

If the things carried on it are forced to drop, so many years of hard work will be in vain.

There are a lot of fighter jets in Ukraine, but both Liu Suxue and Liu Yijiu have to give up the main force of this kind of air combat.It's not because they don't like it, but because they are too far away. Ukraine does not have many aerial tankers, and only the Il-78 aerial tanker is transformed from the Il-76 military transport aircraft.

Even so, there are not many aerial refueling aircraft deployed to Ukraine at present, only more than 20, mainly for the Tu-22m series of backfire and transport -27 fighters deployed here for aerial refueling business.

A super strategic bomber like the Tu-160 does not need air refueling at all.

However, to fly from Ukraine to Nipudosan, the only way to refuel in Iran at the earliest is definitely not an easy task.

The Il-78 has a length of 46.60 meters, a height of 14.76 meters, a wingspan of 50.50 meters and a wing area of ​​300 square meters.The power plant is four d-30kp-2 turbofan engines with a single thrust of 117.7 kN.The maximum take-off weight is 190 tons and it can carry 92,800 kg of fuel.

In the case of flying 1,000 kilometers, it can refuel 65 tons of other aircraft, and in the case of flying 2500 kilometers, air refueling can only refuel only about 30 tons.

From Ukraine to Nipudosan, the distance is tens of thousands of kilometers!

Falling to the ground to refuel, this possibility is not too great.

Although relations with Iran and Pakistan are very good, they are related to the issue of the ownership of billions or more of armaments.

Liu Suxue did not dare to relax at all.

The plane was flying above Turkish airspace. In the wide cabin, except for a few entourage who were closing their eyes and resting, Liu Suxue himself was constantly thinking about a map of the world.

The areas of the two camps on the map were marked out, and it was clear.

"Or we can simply fly back to China. The area from Ukraine to China is the Soviet Union's own territory. As long as the relationship between a certain country is opened up, they can use their airport to refuel the aerial tanker and fly directly to it. Within China. Tu-160 does not even need to refuel. It is directly hidden in the airport in the Gobi, and neither American satellites nor Soviet satellites can be found!" Seeing Liu Suxue making gestures on the map again, one wearing a Chinese tunic suit The middle-aged white man could not help speaking.

The white man wore a tunic suit and felt awkward no matter how he looked at it.

Inside the plane, there was only Liu Suxue, a skinny old man of the yellow race, and even a bald and chubby old man who looked like a politician from a certain European country.

In fact, this old man can really be counted as a politician because he is a member of a secret department of the Ukrainian government.

At this time, he also said, "Actually, we don't need to entangle these. The range of the Tu160 is just enough, and the Backfire bomber needs air refueling. But it can fly at least four thousand kilometers. It can completely make the Il-78. The aerial tanker waited in Pakistan first, and waited until we were about to reach a certain area before taking off to carry out aerial refueling..."

"I haven't thought about this way. There are not many aerial tankers there..."

Liu Suxue patted his swollen head.

It is an indisputable fact that there are not many aerial tankers in Ukraine.

Although, Il-78 is currently the world's largest aerial tanker.The maximum take-off weight is more than 30 tons heavier than the 134.72 tons of the kc-135a, the maximum available fuel capacity is 18 tons or more heavier than the 46.8 tons of the kc-135a, and the practical ceiling is much higher.

Especially in such a one-way trip, the aerial tanker not only needs to refuel in the air, but also consumes fuel.

"It's really not possible, or let the young master help. Iran and Pakistan have a lot of aerial tankers. Let their aerial tankers refuel our Tu-22 first? As long as they agree to use their aerial tankers to Our fighters refuel, so it’s much easier..."

This plan is too big, and the voyage is far enough.

"If the country has a sufficient number of aerial tankers, this kind of problem is not big. Cross the Himalayas, take off from Pakistan, and wait outside the Arabian area. As far as possible, only leave enough fuel to return. In this way, It’s enough to think of something about the distance across the Indian Ocean."

Everyone knows that once such a huge group of bombers land, they will probably never be able to take off again.

This involves more than ten Tu-160s, dozens of Tu-22m2 and Tu-22m3, and many more cruise missiles!

Any country will be greedy for such a huge super weapon.

No one will worry about whether they may not be able to afford it.

With such a huge number of strategic weapons and deterrence, this is what any country needs.

Even the United States and the entire Western countries have been shrouded in the shadow of the Tu-160 and Tu-22m series of medium-range strategic bombers.

Figure -22m, can threaten most of the European region.

If Pakistan owns it, it can deter all areas of India.

Iran has it, and the entire Arab world is within the range of their bombers.

For Iraq, there is no need to count on it.

"That won't work. We can't fly over the airspace of India! We can only cross the Lakdev Sea from the Arabian Sea, and then fly directly across to the destination..." Looking at the map, Liu Suxue sighed again."There is basically no place to refuel over there."

"Or, let's fly from Iran to Afghanistan, and then enter the airspace of northern Pakistan, flying in the Himalayas. This will not be easily detected. At the same time, it will be more difficult to operate. This way, after all, there are several aircraft. To stay in China..."

A young man said suddenly.

This plan immediately brightened Liu Suxue's eyes.

Starting from southern Ukraine, flying over the southern Russian territory, then across the Caspian Sea, into Iran, so that the first aerial refueling can be carried out.

Then from Iran to northern Pakistan, or simply across Afghan airspace into Pakistan for a second aerial refueling.

When crossing the Himalayas, some large bombers entered China, while others flew eastward directly against the Himalayas.Then go straight across Burma and enter Nipudosan!

"The biggest problem is that China does not have aerial tankers."

This route will be thousands of kilometers longer than a direct flight, and air refueling needs to be carried out at least three times.

At the same time, this line will only be detected when it is in the air over the Caspian Sea. Once it enters the territory of Iran, the long-range early warning radar deployed by the West cannot be detected. It is even more impossible to enter Afghanistan, a country still in war. be found.

Pass through Afghanistan, and then the fleet will disappear!

In the end, no one will know where these fighters have gone.

The Southeast Asia region is basically the area where the two major camps of the United States and the Soviet Union are the weakest. All kinds of advanced weapons and equipment and detection radars are arranged at the junction of the two major camps in Europe.

The only question now is whether China can provide sufficient air refueling in this operation!

"It takes at least a dozen aerial tankers to complete the task!" Liu Suxue calculated, "The situation in the Soviet Union is getting more and more chaotic. No one knows how much time we have. The longer the time, the better our chances. Big!"

"You should go back to China and talk to Director Liu. Without a sufficient number of aerial tankers and a huge fleet, it is difficult to fly to your destination."

Liu Suxue nodded in agreement.

I really need to go back to China and have a good talk with Liu Yijiu.

China has been engaged in aerial refueling many years ago, and it has obtained the Boeing-707 aerial refueling machine transformed from the kc-135. At the same time, it has also produced the Yunshi, which is fully capable of rapidly manufacturing large quantities of aerial refueling machines.

The problem is that I don’t know if China has already completed the aerial tanker!

"Perhaps, things here can be suspended for a while, after all, we have been doing this plan all these years!" Other people basically have this attitude.

Liu Suxue thought for a while, and then said, "You guys will do something here first. I will go back in the past few days..."

After so many years of hard work, they must not let things go wrong at the last minute.
