"Of course, I have seen your record in Iraq. You are simply the god of war in the Middle East!" the woman said, "I am a reporter from Agence France-Presse, specializing in news about the Middle East."

reporter?Zhang Feng looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "Aren't you French?"

"My father is French and my mother is Polish. I was born in Lyon. Do I need to see my press card?" the woman said.The fragrance exhaled by the woman floated into Zhang Feng's nose: "My name is Ajielina."

Suddenly, the music stopped.

"Everyone, let us give a warm applause to welcome the helm of our company, Mr. Marcel Dassault!"

Suddenly, cheerful applause rang out.

Although Marcel Dassault has gray hair, he is still in good spirits. Wearing a neat suit, he waved to the people below: "Everyone, tonight is a happy night, let's continue!"

Zhang Feng turned around, and the beauty beside him who took the initiative to kiss had disappeared.

What's her name?What what na?Zhang Feng shook his head, French women are passionate:!

Just when the lights were on, Adelina turned her head and saw Joseph hiding in the corner. She suddenly felt that she was careless. Although she put on makeup, there was still a risk of being recognized. She should have undergone plastic surgery at that time. It's a pity that I like the current face so much that I haven't changed it.

Looking at the prey around her, Adelina cried out inwardly that it's a pity, but today she has already caught up with Shan, so she can create some accidental opportunities in the future!

Joseph was in a corner and had already poured three glasses of champagne. Suddenly, in his blurred eyes, he saw a figure from the back that he couldn't forget.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously, looked over again, but couldn't find it anymore.

Maybe I drank too much.

The crowd cheered again, and Marcel, led by Boileau, came to Zhang Feng.

"Mr. Marcel, I have admired your name for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you today." Zhang Feng said.After he finished speaking, Sarah, who had already walked over quickly, translated the words to Marcel.

Sarah knew that now was not the time to be jealous. The visit of the head of Dassault must be something important.

"Your Excellency Qusay, you are so young that I could not have imagined that you would make such great contributions in Iraq at such a young age, and your future achievements must be limitless!" Marcel said.

Boileau greeted the waiter, took two glasses of champagne, and handed them to Zhang Feng and Marcel.

"Cheers!" Zhang Feng took it and said to Marcel.

Originally thought that Marcel was so old that he should stop drinking, but after the two clinked glasses, Marcel actually drank it down.

Seeing the old guy drinking so happily, Zhang Feng even wondered if Boileau had done something to drink water.

If I had known it earlier, I would have poured him a glass of 56-degree Niulanshan Erguotou to see if he could drink it like this?

Zhang Feng also raised his head, and slowly slid the champagne into his mouth.

Sarah, who was next to him, looked at Zhang Feng's expression when he was drinking, and felt a little familiar.

The taste is mellow, but there is no spicy feeling. This thing really has a different taste from Erguotou.

"Your Excellency Qusay, although you are young, you have negotiated the first big deal in Iraq's history, buying F-20 fighter jets and production lines from the United States?" Marcel said.

After Sarah translated, looking at Zhang Feng's face, she knew that they were about to get to the point.

"Yes, the f-20's fire control system is very advanced, especially the radar, which is comparable to that of the f-16 and can fully meet our needs." Zhang Feng said.

"But the F-20 is a light fighter with a very short combat range, and its maneuverability is not as good as our Mirage 2000. Your Excellency Qusay watched our air show today, how do you feel?"

"Yes, this is a very good fighter. I have a hunch that it will be widely equipped in the air forces of other countries in the world." Zhang Feng said.

"So, I don't know if the Iraqi Air Force is interested?" Marcel said.

"I'm sorry, we can use the F-2000 to undertake most of the Mirage 20's tasks. In the future, our air force will use the F-20 as the main force." Zhang Feng said.

After hearing this, Boileau's face suddenly became ugly. He wanted to splash the wine in the glass in his hand on the other person's face. You are not interested, so why come to the show again?You know what a heavy test mission this fighter has, and you know we cleared the airspace over the test center for you to show off?Now that he is not interested, is this purely teasing people?

Boileau was extremely depressed, but since Marcel was here, it was inconvenient for him to have a fit.

"So, in other words, is the Iraqi Air Force not interested in our Dassault fighter jets?" Marcel said, "Our Dassault company has always had a good arms sales relationship with your country. Your country is currently the most advanced I’m afraid it’s our Dassault Mirage F1, right?”

"Mr. Marcel, I am very interested in your company's fighter jets, especially your company's French Dream!"

French Dream?What a nice name, Sarah translated this sentence, only to find that the old man's face suddenly turned red.Please remember the URL, if you like "Babylonian Empire" written by Huadongzhixiong

Chapter 157 The French Dream

Chapter 157 The French Dream——

When the American-made f-14 and f-15 were soaring in the blue sky, the old Marcel, who was old but still ambitious, had an ideal that he never forgot: to create a model that was similar to the f-14, f- 15 of the same heavy air fighters!

Since France has withdrawn from NATO, if there is a war, the French Air Force will have to rely on its own strength to win, so a heavy-duty air superiority fighter is essential. "novel"

Dassault Corporation put forward the idea of ​​asking the government to provide funding for the development of the Mirage 2000, while the Mirage 4000 was completely developed with the company's own funds.

In this case, it is actually somewhat similar to Northrop's f-20, which is the wishful thinking of the company's senior leaders. The f-20 is a large-scale improvement on the basis of the f-5. They are all common, and their final endings are also the same, they die without a problem, and they just stay alone in the museum in later generations.

The Phantom 4000 can be said to be the dual-issue version of the Phantom 2000. Due to the use of two engines, the thrust-to-weight ratio of the whole machine is higher than 1. That is to say, it can climb vertically without any effort. Moreover, the enlarged body is completely redundant There is more space for fuel, and the combat radius is much higher. This kind of fighter is the darling of the blue sky.However, when the Mirage 2000 was created, the French Air Force believed that the Mirage 2000 was enough to satisfy their control of the blue sky. They no longer needed to equip the expensive Mirage 4000. In this way, Dassault’s dream of developing a heavy air fighter , Marcel old man's dream, ultimately did not come true.

However, with the arrival of Zhang Feng, the fate of these two fighters has also undergone fundamental changes. The f-20 has been introduced by Zhang Feng, and the following conversation will also affect the future of Mirage 4000.

In a small conference room next to the reception, the two parties sat down again.This is a completely soundproof meeting room, and, after inspection, there are no eavesdropping devices.

"Your Excellency Qusay, I am very shocked, are you really interested in our Mirage 4000 fighter?" Marcel asked.

In Dassault, Mr. Marcel can definitely be regarded as a miraculous figure. Although he is old, he is still fighting on the front line of designing aircraft, especially his dream, the Mirage 4000 fighter jet. Participated in the design of the whole process, this fighter also began its first flight in 79.

"We Iraqi Air Force needs a heavy-duty air superiority fighter if we want to keep the Tomcats from the Iranians in terms of performance." Zhang Feng said: "Looking at the world, only Dassault's Mirage 4000 can satisfy us. needs."

Of course, Zhang Feng knows that besides the Mirage 4000, there are other fighter jets, for example, the American-made F-15 fighter jets. Air fighter?Absolutely impossible!Besides, Americans are notorious for not keeping their promises. F-20 may be full of variables, let alone the powerful f-15.

The rest is the Su-27 of the Red Empire. This large-scale wing-body fusion fighter has a beautiful streamlined shape and the admirable Cobra maneuver. It was once the favorite of Zhang Feng in his previous life. Unfortunately, there is no way until the Red Empire is disintegrated.

Looking around the world, what Zhang Feng can choose is Dassault's Mirage 4000. Although it is more expensive and it still has various problems that have not been resolved, Zhang Feng has no choice.

If you only guard Iraq's limited airspace, the F-20 is enough. However, if you want to become a major power in the Middle East, it is absolutely impossible without heavy-duty air superiority fighters.

Although Iran's Tomcats lack accessories, Zhang Feng is not sure whether the Iran-Contra incident will happen in advance, and Israel's f-15 is a threat to Iraq. Maybe there will be a day to face the challenge of the Americans. There is no heavy air superiority fighter, can it?

In terms of vision, everyone here is probably inferior to Zhang Feng, because he has the experience of later generations. The scene of the multinational air raid on Baghdad must never happen again!

When Zhang Feng said that only the Mirage 4000 could satisfy the Iraqi Air Force, Marcel was very happy: "Yes, I also think that our company's development of the Mirage 4000 is the right choice. The French Air Force also needs an air superiority fighter: .”

The fighter still under development has been booked out, which fully shows that this fighter is very popular in the market. Marcel continued: "I don't know how many Mirage 4000s the Iraqi Air Force needs?"

"If the Mirage 4000 can meet my requirements, I think at least 4000 will be needed. For the same requirement, I will get the Mirage [-] production line." Zhang Feng said.

Eighty!Marcel was shocked again.In these countries from the Middle East, there is black gold under the land. Speaking of which, they are so confident.
