In this regard, China's reserves are very sufficient. It has the largest wind tunnel in Asia and a supersonic wind tunnel, which can completely solve the shape design of fighter jets. They have also conducted a large number of experiments.

It was in these experiments that they discovered the advantages of the head-up layout (canard layout). From the J-[-] project, they began to take a completely different path from the Soviet-made aircraft, that is, the main wing plus the front canard.

If Iraq wants to have complete aircraft design capabilities, then a wind tunnel is essential, which is an essential equipment for studying various aircraft.

Hearing what Weeks said, Qu Sai immediately knew: "We should have our own wind tunnel, and after our designers complete this process in Chengfei, all these equipments in our country will be ready. "

In addition to the wind tunnel, including the use of computer-aided design, these necessary tools for the development of aircraft must be introduced, and an aircraft research institute will be established near the Basra aircraft factory, all of which are already in Qusay's plan.

Not only the wind tunnel, but also the electromagnetic chamber that detects the radar reflection area of ​​the fighter is also in Qusay's plan. These are all necessary to achieve a compromise between aerodynamics and stealth in the shape of the aircraft.

After leaving Iraq, more than a dozen technicians followed Weeks on the road to the East. Their mission is to master all aircraft design processes and make their own team fully mature. stand up.

With the cooperation of funds and personnel from Iraq, Project No. [-] has since entered a stage of rapid development.

1985 is about to pass, and in this year, Iraq has gained a lot, and the biggest gain is not military or economic, but agricultural.

If you want to become a big country, you must first solve the problem of food. This is the most basic problem. In later generations, when Iraq was sanctioned, it was just a grain of food that made this rich country poor. People can There are no other activities, but eating is a basic guarantee of life, so Qusay attaches great importance to agricultural production.

Iraq lacks arable land, but after occupying Khuzestan Province, it began to vigorously develop agricultural production here. The Iraqi government invested a lot of money in infrastructure construction, improved agricultural production tools, and introduced excellent species, which greatly developed agricultural production. In addition, the agriculture in the northern provinces that have changed banners has received financial support from the zhèngfǔ, and they have had a bumper harvest this year, so they have been able to obtain enough food to meet their own needs.

As for those people in the occupied areas, they are very satisfied with their current life. At least, they will no longer shout a slogan without being hungry, nor will they be turbulent in the war, and their living standards are still gradually improving. The reason why the northern provinces changed their flags together and fell into the arms of Rajavi zhèngfǔ.

At the end of the year, President Qusay cordially received the current leader of the new Tehran zhèngfǔ, Rajawi Mohammad, in Baghdad.This is also his first visit to Iraq since he took over Tehran.

The relationship between the two countries is very close. However, because of the domestic political situation, Rajawi has never visited abroad. He has always been committed to the construction of a new zhèngfǔ, realizing his political ambitions, and building a Modern, open paradise.

Along with Rajawi, besides First Lady Mariana Rajawi, Defense Minister Edwin and others, President Qusay extended a warm welcome to their visit.

"We came to Iraq with a great friendship. There may have been some conflicts between our two countries before, but those belonged to the past. Now, our two countries are very harmonious and harmonious. In order to maintain our domestic The stability of the political situation and the stability of people's lives, we will continue to develop various friendly relations with Iraq, jointly develop various resources in our country, and improve our economic development level. With the help of Iraq, our grain harvest this year has been bumper , Our various mining industries are also progressing rapidly, which is of great help to the overall strength of our country." At the international airport in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, facing journalists, President Rajaoui spoke eloquently Said.

The wife next to him also nodded with a smile. Her appearance represented that their country was already very close to the West and was an open country.

Similarly, the Iraqi Foreign Minister Tariq who came to greet him also made a speech afterwards, highly appreciating the great friendship between the two countries. Under the promotion of President Rajawi, the two countries have become closer and closer. The cooperation between the two sides is in the military, Industry, economy, and agriculture are in full swing. This is one of the most outstanding examples of peace and stability in the Middle East. Iraq attaches great importance to the relations between the two countries and will continue to deepen and develop these relations.

The Palace of the Republic is brightly lit today. President Qusay cordially received visiting President Rajawi and others in the large conference hall on the first floor.

Rajavi was wearing a well-fitting robe, the wrinkles on his face seemed to have disappeared, and he was full of smiles, and his wife was more radiant, full of the vitality of a middle-aged woman.

This is a young and promising zhèngfǔ.Qusay knew that Rajawi was very satisfied with the status quo.

"Thank you very much for your country's strong support to us over the past few years." Rajawi said.

Iraq's support is indeed quite strong. In order to maintain political stability, Iraq has stationed a large number of troops in Bakhtaran, Khuzestan, Tabriz and other places. The existence of these troops has deterred those Those who have different intentions, let them not dare to act rashly, and let the Rajavi government spend the most dangerous time at the beginning.

With the help of Iraq, the National Liberation Army of the Rajawi government has also made great progress. They have developed into an army of more than 2 people, equipped with T55 and T62 tanks, various artillery, machine guns, and portable air defense. Missiles, etc., this army has played a very good role in maintaining domestic law and order.

Moreover, in this army, there are also more than 2000 female soldiers.

"The stable development of your country is related to our own interests in Iraq. Therefore, we will continue to maintain the status quo of stationing troops in your country. At the same time, we will continue to deepen our military, industrial, economic and agricultural relations, education, sports, etc. Cooperation in all aspects," Qusay said.

Now, the Iraqi troops are mainly concentrated in Bakhtaland, Kurdistan, Khuzestan and Tabriz.Among them, Bakhtaran and Kurdistan mainly have various mining and heavy industries, while Khuzestan Province mainly has oil industry and shipbuilding industry, etc. In Tabriz, in addition to maintaining local law and order, the more important , in the face of Turkey and the Soviet Union, keep yourself able to stretch out a fist at any time, so the troops stationed in these places cannot move.

In the economic field, Iraq is in charge of all the political situation and taxation of Khuzestan Province. There is no official sent by Rajawi zhèngfǔ here, and it is completely ruled by Iraq. In several other places, Iraq is only a garrison , Appoint officials, finance and taxation are handed over to Rajavi zhèngfǔ.Iraq is completely obliged to garrison troops, and has not asked Rajawi zhèngfǔ for garrison expenses. With the income of Khuzestan Province, Iraq is enough to maintain expenses.

At the same time, under Qusay's suggestion, the Rajavi zhèngfǔ paid great attention to the agriculture here. With the tax revenue from these provinces, the Rajawi zhèngfǔ's pockets bulged up, and he began to invest money in the agricultural field and achieved a bumper harvest.

"We welcome your garrison very much." Rajawi said: "This will be of great help to maintain the friendly relationship between us."

At present, the strength of the National Liberation Army is still relatively weak, and it can only maintain law and order in the occupied areas. If a war comes, their troops are simply not enough to carry out a modern war. What's more, there are still a large number of Iraqis in their army. consultant.When Rajawi returned to the capital, he had already agreed with this status quo.

"In our current army, there is only the army. We hope to develop our own air force and navy, so that we can better protect our country." At this time, Defense Minister Edwin next to him said.

Seeing the other party's cautious look, Qusay knew that they were asking about his attitude. If he said that the Iraqi Air Force was enough to protect their safety, they would definitely have nothing to say.

Are you such a stingy person?The Iraqi Air Force has promised to protect the security of all Iran's airspace, but if Iran is willing, of course it will help.

"We have a batch of MiG-21 fighter jets in Iraq, which can support your country's air force. At the same time, we are willing to help your country train a group of pilots." Qusay said.

Chapter 928 The Throat Area

The Persians have an air force. Historically, the Persian air force was still very strong. Relying on the income from oil, the pro-American Persian zhèngfǔ was equipped with powerful F-14 Tomcat fighters and became the only one other than the US Navy. Even the Israeli Air Force is envious of such equipment users.

However, in the war with Iraq, the Persian air force was gradually consumed, and due to the US arms embargo, fewer and fewer powerful Tomcat fighters could fly normally.In the early days of the war, the Persian air force had an overall advantage, especially the combination of the tomcat and the phoenix, which made the Iraqi air force's operations full of risks.

However, as Iraq introduced the French Mirage F1, the situation began to gradually improve. Especially after Qusay gradually emerged, it began to vigorously introduce Western fighters, such as F-20 and Mirage 4000. Finally, the Persian air force gradually became a disadvantage. In the last few operations, the Persian Air Force, which was not supplemented by new fighter planes, was completely wiped out.

From then on, all Iraqi fighter planes flew in the sky of Persia.

At the invitation of the Rajawi zhèngfǔ, the Iraqi Air Force was fully responsible for protecting Iran's airspace. Their Mirage 4000 fighters often soared from the sky of Persia.

However, they also hope to have their own air force, so, in this friendly atmosphere, Edwin made this suggestion.

Hearing what the other party said, Qusay was very generous. Iraq is now replacing the old fighters on a large scale and eliminating the old fighters. The MiG-21 is small and light, but it has a short time to stay in the air and has no beyond-visual-range air combat capability. Therefore, it was the target of Iraq's replacement. Therefore, Qusay made this decision to provide these fighters to the Iranian Air Force for free so that they have the ability to defend the sky.

Because Iraq has occupied the entire Khuzestan province, and all oil revenue has been included in its own financial expenditure, the income of Rajawi zhèngfǔ in other provinces is only to maintain the normal operation of the country, and the military expenditure of the army is not capable When purchasing fighter planes, Iraq provided them free of charge, which was exactly what they could only wish for.

"Thank you very much for Iraq's free support." Edwin said.With this batch of fighters, at least they can deal with some low-intensity conflicts and guard their skies together with the Iraqi Air Force. Although these fighters are outdated in the eyes of Iraq, in some countries, they are still The main fighter.

Rajawi was also very happy to see Qusay supporting their military construction so strongly. He went on to say: "Last year, the northern region responded to our zhèngfǔ's call and obeyed our zhèngfǔ's order, but now in the east and In the south, nearly half of the provinces have not obeyed our new zhèngfǔ."

Hearing what Rajawi said, Qusay knew that he wanted to restore the country's previous territory. What he meant was that he hoped that Iraq would send troops to take those provinces back.

Now, the northwest has been completely owned, and there is no movement in the southeastern region for the time being. However, most of those regions are sparsely populated deserts and mountains, except for a few provinces in the central part.

If Rajawi had the ability, he would have seized these areas long ago. Unfortunately, he is not yet capable. His army has left Iraq and can do nothing.Want to recast the air force, but also to control those areas in the east.

The war in the east was over a long time ago. Qusay did this with deep meaning. The grain-producing areas in the northwest, the mining areas in the west, and the oil areas in the Khuzestan province in the southwest are all needed by Iraq.

However, the country in the east was once a powerful country after all. If this country is unified, even though it is completely surrendered to Iraq now, and although Qusay knows that Rajawi is a very obedient person, it does not mean that there will be no such people in the future. An ambitious man who wanted to rid himself of Iraqi influence.

When Iraq is not strong enough to radiate the entire Middle East, it is more in Iraq's interest to keep them in the current situation.

Moreover, Iraq's current focus is no longer on the east, and it is not worthwhile for Iraq to spend its military power on such unchallenging tasks.The focus of Iraq is Israel in the west, which is the current world superpower, the United States.

Fighting in mountainous areas, even the most elite troops would suffer heavy losses, so Qu Sai couldn't engage in this kind of war.

"Yes, those areas are still in ignorance and have not seen the kindness of the government. Therefore, we need to influence them more and make them submit to the rule of the government." Qusay said.

They did not join because the appeal of zhōngyāngzhèngfǔ was not enough to influence them morally. This was Qu Sai's proposal.

Hearing what Qusay said, Rajawi knew that the important purpose of their visit this time, the idea of ​​persuading Iraq to send troops to kill all those disobedient people in the south, was in vain.

As long as Iraq is willing to send troops, then, relying on the pressure of the Iraqi army, even if it is not real, it will put strong pressure on those guys in the south to obey their own rule.

"Yes, we must make the people in the north richer and govern for the people, so that the people in the south can see that only by obeying our new zhèngfǔ can they have a better life, so as to influence them." Mariana said.

Seeing that there was going to be a cold field, the first lady made a timely round of the field.
