Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

The Salihs were stunned by what they saw. Hearing is not as good as seeing.

In the huge base, there are a lot of F16 wreckage. This thing is too easy to recognize, because there is also an almost intact F16 wreckage in the base. Except for the missing wing and some damage in other places, everything else is fine.

With all these things, it is self-evident who shot down this F16.

"Xu, what is the price of your anti-aircraft missiles?"

Salman asked directly.

Buy, must buy, even if the price is expensive. This is not an anti-aircraft missile, this is a full sense of security.

Now Saudi Arabia has reaped the benefits of security. Since the delivery of the missile boats, they have become more confident in speaking in the Middle East.

Those missile boats are there as a deterrent. Although Israel clamored to destroy its own missile boats, after so much time, Israel did not dare to act, but just talked.

The United States also put a lot of pressure on Saudi Arabia, but in the end, it found that Saudi Arabia was tough, so it changed its attitude and began to win over Saudi Arabia and promise Saudi Arabia benefits.

But this is all on the surface. Secretly, the United States has been increasing its troops and the number of fighter jets in Saudi Arabia. The meaning is very clear. If you Saudi Arabia dare to mess around, I will fight you immediately.

At the same time, during this period, many military trade contracts were reached with Israel, exporting aircraft, missiles, long-range rocket launchers, anti-aircraft missiles, etc. to Israel.

What is internal circulation? The Middle East is now in that area.

Saudi Arabia and other countries have strengthened their military strength. After Israel felt threatened, it bought a lot of weapons and equipment from the United States.

Seeing that Israel bought so many things again, the Middle Eastern countries were afraid again, so they continued to want to buy more equipment to increase their sense of security.

This is an arms race, and now an arms race has formed in the Middle East.

Now the United States is powerless to stop it because it is still deeply trapped in Somalia and cannot get out. The United States never dreamed that the Somali war would become a war of attrition.

The Somali People's Army is now fighting more and more, and the territory is getting bigger and bigger.

Now, although Aidid has disappeared, the areas controlled by the Somali People's Army are increasing, and the areas controlled by the Somali government are decreasing.

The continuous air strikes and blockades by the United States have made the originally poor Somalia even more unbearable. A large number of civilians have died in the US bombing and the US blockade.

These deaths have caused the Somali people to hate the United States even more. One by one, they have changed from civilians to soldiers and taken up arms to fight against the United States.

Now everyone can feel that the Middle East is like a powder keg. In this case, the Middle Eastern countries naturally have no sense of security.

What should I do if I don't feel safe? Naturally, I have to buy weapons and equipment to make myself feel safe.

"Your Highness, let's take a look at the products first..."

Xu Huasheng smiled slightly. This time he was pulled in as a salesman for free. Xu Huasheng is familiar with this matter.

The two came to the base. There was a huge space inside the base, and here, several missile vehicles were parked.

The huge cannon barrel looked very majestic. Seeing this thing, Salman wanted to take it home now.

Isn't this the anti-aircraft missile that hit the F16 in the video?

"Your Highness, this is our country's Hongqi 9 anti-aircraft missile. But what you see is the export version, called Hongqi 9E. This missile has a range of 300 kilometers, a speed of Mach 4, and a firing height of 35 kilometers. At the same time, the radar equipped with this missile is a phased array radar. In addition to its strong anti-interference ability, it can also track 100 air targets within 300 kilometers and below Mach 7 at the same time. It automatically conducts threat assessment and selects 6 targets with the greatest threat to be assigned to the launch vehicle. A firepower unit includes 4 launch vehicles and 16 interceptor missiles, which can intercept 16 air targets at the same time. The computer will reasonably allocate the number of missile launches according to the number of incoming targets. In order to ensure that there is no risk, two missiles often intercept a target at the same time..."

Xu Huasheng began to introduce the performance of Hongqi 9E in detail. Now China has a new naming method for equipment, and the E version is the export model.

Hongqi 9E, the interception range is 300 kilometers. This interception range is already very strong, and it can intercept up to 16 targets at a time.

However, when one missile intercepts one target, the interception rate may be reduced a lot.

One firepower unit, four missile launchers, and 16 missiles.

Generally, a battalion will have eight launchers, one radar vehicle, and 32 launch tubes. As for how many air defense missile battalions a country needs to equip, it depends on your own needs and strength.After listening to Xu Huasheng's introduction, Salman's eyes were hot.

"Xu, how much does an air defense missile battalion cost? Can the technology be transferred?"

Salman asked directly.

"Technology transfer is impossible. This weapon is the most advanced air defense missile in China. It's good enough to be sold abroad. As for the price, if you buy a set alone, it's 600 million US dollars. If you buy a battalion, it's 1 billion US dollars per battalion. Two base missiles are given. If the air defense missile is purchased separately, it's 3 million US dollars per missile..."

Xu Huasheng gave a quote directly.

This price is not cheap, but it's not too expensive.

For such an advanced and powerful air defense missile, let alone 600 million US dollars per set, even Saudi Arabia couldn't buy this thing for 1 billion US dollars in the past.

With the performance of Hongqi 9E, even if it is taken to Europe and the United States, it is a first-class thing and is not for sale. Only China will sell this thing to the outside world for money.

The reason why China dares to sell is that China has more advanced air defense missiles hidden. The weapons that can be sold are all backward weapons in China's weapon system.

"Can it be paid with oil, natural gas or super condensate?"

Salman asked directly.

"Of course, but if you pay in installments, you need to pay the corresponding interest..."

Xu Huasheng nodded. Doing business with China is good in this regard, and the payment is flexible.

"Great, in this case, we Saudi Arabia will first need ten battalions..."

Salman said directly and straightforwardly. Hearing this, Xu Huasheng swallowed his saliva. Damn, the dog rich is the dog rich, and he is too willful when he has money.

Listen to this tone, first want ten battalions, damn, one battalion has eight launch vehicles and 32 air defense missiles.

Even if two missiles intercept one target, 16 targets can be intercepted.

Ten battalions can intercept at least 160 targets at a time. Saudi Arabia wants to build its own country into an iron wall.

With these ten battalions of anti-aircraft missiles, even if all Israeli fighter jets are deployed, they may not be able to break through Saudi Arabia's air defense network. After all, this thing can not only intercept aircraft, but also intercept missiles. It can intercept targets below Mach 7.
