Babylonian Empire

President Qusay is also unwilling to allocate a few more fighters to himself, especially the powerful Mirage 4000 fighters. In this way, when it comes to fighting for air supremacy at sea, the Iraqi naval aviation unit will definitely not be able to do it alone, and will have to rely on the help of the air force.

Saad knew that President Qusay must have his own plan. Even if he asked President Qusay for it, he probably would not give it to him.

What he didn't know was that President Qusay's main fighter for his naval aviation program was another of the best fighters in the world, the Su-27K!

In Qusay's mind, the Su-27K is the most suitable carrier-based fighter for the Iraqi naval aviation force. This is a plan that has been decided when the aircraft carrier is ordered, and this cannot be changed.

This is an excellent air superiority fighter. Its purpose is to seize air superiority. In this regard, it conflicts with the function of the Mirage 4000. Iraq is equipped with two heavy air superiority fighters at the same time, which will bring logistical complexity. Therefore, Qusay It was decided that after the introduction of the Su-27K, the Air Force will continue to use the Mirage 4000, and the Navy will use the Su-27K and land-based Su-27 fighters that may be introduced one after another.

The medium-sized multi-purpose fighter has always been supported by the light F-20. In the future, it will gradually transition to the J-20. The medium-sized fighter of the J-[-] is completely suitable for the choice of future fighters, and the F-[-] will gradually After reaching the end of life, fade out the air force sequence.

After the development of the JH-[-] and No. [-] projects, Iraq will accumulate experience in designing aircraft and can try to develop a model, such as an advanced advanced trainer.Then, when the Soviet Union disintegrated, a large number of personnel were hired from the Sukhoi Design Bureau and the Mikoyan Design Bureau to enter Iraq to preside over the development of the fourth-generation fighter jet.

F-22 will be Iraq's future opponent.

As for the JH-[-], this very cost-effective fighter is equipped with naval aviation units. They use Qeshm Island as their base, and all sea targets within a radius of [-] kilometers are their targets. Let Iraq's sea control ability be greatly improved.

Imad is not as far-sighted as President Qusay. He only knows that his subordinates now have a few more planes.

"Why don't you lower the landing gear! The tower, the tower informed them." Imad's face changed slightly when he saw the flat-bellied planes in the telescope.

This kind of mistake can actually appear in his subordinates, he absolutely cannot allow it.Those pilots are usually very arrogant, and they can't even master a basic flying maneuver.

At this moment, a word came from the radio that made Emad dumbfounded: "Altitude fifty, pass through the field at a low altitude, let the commander know the performance of our fighter, and salute the commander in our way!"

Then, I saw those fighter planes painted with the logo of the Iraqi Naval Air Force roaring past at low altitude at a high speed.

Picking up the hat from the ground, Imad patted the dirt and put it on his head. When the pilots came down, he "greet" them well!

The aircraft group made a turn in the air, and began to land in a two-aircraft formation with a skilled attitude.

With the arrival of these fighter planes, the Iraqi Navy has added another weapon to attack the sea. When facing the enemy's sea formation, they have a new sharp sword that can be used!

With the strengthening of Iraq's national defense forces, President Qusay's thoughts began to gradually become a reality. He is stepping forward step by step, leading the entire Iraq and the entire Arab world, and began to enter glory.

On June 1988, 6, in this hot summer, the three Gulf countries, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait announced to the outside world that in order to better promote trade between countries, reduce prices, and improve people's living standards, the three countries planned to Within three years, complete the program to use one currency.

After they came out, countries in the Middle East, including Jordan, Syria, and Iran, all expressed their support for this plan and hoped to participate in it.

And other countries have also begun to assess whether it is beneficial to their own economic development.

At present, when the European Unified Currency Union has not yet begun to enter the substantive process, this sudden plan in the Middle East is indeed shocking enough.

However, it was still the United States that responded first.

After learning that Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Iraq, the largest oil countries, were planning to use a unified currency, the United States immediately held an emergency meeting to discuss the current tense situation.

This is definitely not a good sign!

The three countries have rich oil resources, and they are all influential powers in the Middle East. If they come up with a unified currency, is there any bigger conspiracy?

Europe wants to use a unified currency, and the United States is very opposed to it. However, for allies, especially important economic allies of the United States, the United States is at best playing tricks behind the scenes and must not take any actions on the surface.

However, for Arab countries, the United States does not have to be so polite.

In particular, the most unacceptable thing for the United States is that Saudi Arabia is not willing to spend 500 billion U.S. dollars to buy U.S. national debt!This has never happened in the past.In the 70s, when the economic crisis occurred in the United States, Saudi Arabia was allowed to increase its holdings of US treasury bonds to avoid the crisis.

Saudi Arabia has become more and more disobedient.

Chapter One Thousand and Seven

"The Arabs want to develop a unified currency, but they don't know it. The premise of this is that the development of their countries needs to be balanced and the economic level has reached a high level." James Baker said.

Although James spoke in a mocking tone, the rest of the people didn't feel how ridiculous it was. They were all old political fritters and knew the hidden problems.

"We have to organize their actions. The Arabs want a unified currency, which is a very dangerous start." Vice President Bush said.

Bush is running for a new president, he does not want to face such a mess after he takes office, and must nip this risk in the bud.

"However, after all, they are the Arabs themselves. We want to get involved and stop them. There is no legitimate excuse." The secretary of state said.

no excuse?For those countries in the Middle East, need an excuse?

"This incident must have been done by Iraq. This is a very bad start. It represents Saudi Arabia's attempt to let Iraq replace us. Although we have no evidence, it must be the same as Qusaito. Make a deal," Bush said.

The guy in the Middle East, with the conquest of Iran, his ambitions will probably become bigger and bigger.

Unifying the currency means that the entire Arab world will come together.

Of course, almost everyone present saw that terrible situation, but none of them mentioned it.

Now, the U.S. economy has been greatly affected by the collapse of the stock market. What method should they adopt?

"We can mobilize two carrier battle groups and conduct an exercise in the Arabian Sea," Weinberg said.

The aircraft carrier is a symbol of the strength of the United States. To deal with ordinary conflicts, it is enough to dispatch a formation of aircraft carriers. Two formations of aircraft carriers are very deterrent.

Conducting exercises in the Arabian Sea, demonstrating the powerful force of the United States, sent a signal to Saudi Arabia that Iraq is unreliable, and Saudi Arabia can only rely on the United States obediently, which is their best choice.

"Can we freeze the funds of these three countries?" James said.

These three countries have a huge amount of funds in the United States. If they freeze the funds of these three countries and use them to rescue the market, they can completely turn things around.

However, freezing funds is completely different from embezzling funds. If the United States does this, it will completely violate the basic principles.

"Freezing funds will completely push Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to Iraq, which is not good for us." Bush said that last time, they adopted the method of freezing funds. Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are extremely disgusted.

"It is better for us to start from two aspects." Bush said: "On the one hand, we use our own aircraft carrier formation to conduct a military exercise in the outskirts of the Arabian Sea. It cannot be compared with our military strength. On the other hand, our ambassadors conducted a friendly negotiation with the monarchs of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to let them see that there is not much need to use the same currency. When they settle accounts , all settle with the U.S. dollar as the intermediate currency. The attitude must be sincere and let Saudi Arabia fall back into our arms.”

On the one hand, it is the consistent logic of the United States to drive the aircraft carrier to people's doorsteps, and on the other hand, to negotiate with them.

"What if the Saudis won't?" asked the secretary of state.

"King Fahd will definitely agree, if King Fahd is not willing." Bush said: "William, please introduce some developments in Saudi Arabia."

CIA Director William said: "After the Pollard incident last time, the Israeli intelligence agencies changed their attitudes towards us. In some respects, they even took the initiative to report their intelligence to us. This time, they reported In Saudi Arabia, some people in a certain big family are very dissatisfied with the rule of the Saudi family."

It is enough to say this. In Saudi Arabia, the Saudi family enjoys exclusive power. This kind of royal rule is completely different from the values ​​​​of the United States. The reason why the United States can form an alliance with Saudi Arabia is not because of the oil in Saudi Arabia. resource?

Since the Saudi family wants to fight against the United States, let them withdraw from the Saudi political arena and plan a coup in Saudi Arabia?

Israel disclosed this news to the United States, clearly wanting to pull the United States into the water together!However, this news came at a very timely time!

Even President Reagan was thinking that if he could find a rebel force in Iraq, although he could not overthrow Qusay, it would be good to cause some trouble in Iraq and let them turmoil for a period of time.

………Iraq, the Abgar region in the east of the Hijara Desert.

This is where the Arab Space Company is located. Several buildings here have become the focus of the satellites in the sky. However, the rockets are all produced in the production workshop. As long as there is no launch platform, no one will I know how far this Arab's own rocket project has progressed.
