Don't talk about martial arts, I'm a war contractor

Chapter 323 Red Fighting Falcon, Deal Deal (Please vote for me!)

Xia Yu Tuqiong saw it and told the purpose of this trip.

As a classic single-engine light fighter with the largest production volume in the world, and sold in nearly 30 countries, the F-16 Fighting Falcon project is undoubtedly a success, and it is also a magnesium-series third-generation aircraft that is easier to acquire on his collection list.

Similarly, after you buy it, in addition to collecting it, you can also use it for work.

Xiayu enhanced the ground attack performance of the Sibei Ghost through modifications.

It's suitable to stay in Afika and do some odd jobs, but in the high-intensity Middle East region, F-15 can be shot down, and the integrated surveillance and attack drone has become a consumable. The F-4K is definitely a favorite. Having more than enough but not enough.

If you want to improve low-altitude maneuverability, you can only radically modify the fuselage structure like the Ultimate Phantom and take a big step into the third-generation aircraft sequence.

But Xia Yu only has one of this kind of fighter, and since there is no front-end investment in variable sweep wing technology, he cannot explain how to integrate it, so it is impossible to use it for work in the past five years.

In comparison, the F-16 is ready for combat, especially the red Fighting Falcon with upgraded avionics. Just thinking about it makes him excited!

If you want to talk about Soviet aircraft, the best Soviet aircraft are not found in Da Mao or Er Mao. Therefore, most of the Soviet aircraft operated by fire defense are used in the third phase of the museum project, and they will only be used when the company's life and death are at stake. Get into actual combat.

On a daily basis, it is still mainly about making a small amount of money and using it as a training tool for certain subjects. After all, there is only one steam catapult aircraft carrier in the world operated by a private enterprise, and its scarce attributes are fully utilized.

"You have a keen nose, but you think the ones sold by the Chinese are too expensive, so come here to get a bargain."

He is over fifty years old, and His Majesty the King is also an old man. This can be seen at a glance, but who is not selling these old aircraft?

Internationally, as a well-known second-tier dealer in the weapons and equipment industry, Yueju has been responsible for handling the tail goods from Europe and the United States. Most of the time, they are installed and installed for their own use for a period of time, and then sold to third-party countries.

It goes back as far as the war between the two countries. More recently, they consumed a large number of second-hand F-16s and sold them to Pakistan, which has a high demand for fighting falcons.

There are also retired cheetahs packaged from He, Cobra helicopters bought in large quantities from Lao Mei, and rainbows bought from home. I don’t know what day they will change hands again.

Xia Yu always felt that the other party was not buying equipment, but financial products.

During peacetime, they help other countries dispose of retired equipment. Once the situation becomes unstable, they sell it at a high price.

Of course, you can also use it yourself during the holding period, and you can test the waters at a low price without any major conflicts.

To be honest, the reason why Youcho is so good at doing business is because he is poor.

Although it is located in the Middle East, there are really no oil and gas resources. Naturally, he is not as cool as his brother next door, Sat., and he still needs to rely on this method to subsidize his finances.

Xia Yu didn't take advantage of others. The old guy he replaced didn't seem to have much fighting power. In this era of continuous currency issuance and global economic inflation, they were all high-yield financial products.

In a few years, the price may double, and you will make money if you buy it.

As for mass-produced fighter jets, new ones are always more expensive than old ones. The latest F-16V has an export unit price of over million. Adding some bits and pieces, it is really more expensive than fat electricity.

But not everyone is willing to sell Lao Mei’s F-35. Its “old friends” are classified into distant and distant relatives. The only one that is far away is the F-16. Do you want to buy it or not?

If you don't want to buy a Fighting Falcon, you can only buy a Rafale from the Chinese people. That one is more expensive, with an average price of nearly 200 million.

"Instead of letting the people of Magnesium make away with this money, it would be better for us to benefit from each other, what do you think, Your Majesty the King!"

Xia Yu also said with a smile.

"You're right, but it's okay to go around once. If you go around it too many times, you still have to go back to the source."

The old king said with emotion.

Why do they sell F-16s in batches? Isn't it because these old guys who have undergone MLU mid-term life extension upgrades don't have many hours of life left.

While the single machine still has two to three thousand hours, hurry up and sell it at a high price. Moreover, their combat effectiveness really cannot keep up with the times.

If you buy a new phone in a few years, you still can't avoid this sudden attack.

As for the other option besides Rafale, they are not from Palestine. They have a geographical advantage. They are right next to me.

International relations are really complicated, but as the old king said, it will not be affected this time.

"Make an offer. If it's suitable, I can agree to it now."

"Just replace the King Tiger in my museum with an F-16AM and an F-16BM, whichever one is in the best condition."

Xia Yu quoted his price.

He currently still has a Tiger King that he has saved up, and is planning to film a restoration documentary, so it’s time to sell the Tiger King and replace it with some productivity tools.

The combined value of the two old F-16s that have undergone mid-term life extension is close to million U.S. dollars. The Chinese can sell them for million U.S. dollars after re-arming them.

The decisive weapon, the King Tiger tank, with a total historical production of less than 500 vehicles, was not for sale in the tank museum (No. 233) in the country before the Afika War Museum opened.

But a pair of blue and white porcelain bowls broke into pieces and one became an orphan. If there was an extra King Tiger tank, the absolute scarcity attribute of the other one would be gone, let alone the third one that would soon be available.

Xiayu has never sold it. In addition to not being short of more than 3 million in cash, there are also many people who come to Afika just for it. It is impossible for him to sell it before saving up the third King Tiger.

Now that conditions permit, it would be a good deal to exchange for two F-16s.

"Are you willing?"

The old king said in surprise.

At first, he was what both Tiger Style and Tiger King wanted, but he knew it was impossible so he didn't ask, but in the end, he brought it up on his own.

"There's nothing to be reluctant about. This chariot project is just the beginning of our museum. The real beginning is yet to come!"

The consumption power of the rich far exceeds that of the middle class. The consumption of tanks and artillery can at most prevent them from buying one less luxury car, and only fighter jets are the real money-sellers.

"So it's a deal?"

The old king held out his hand.

"make a deal!"

The two of them clasped their hands together.

The surrounding guests were just curious about Xia Yu's identity when they saw this scene, but the curators made guesses.

No, this King of Volumes has sold something to the King of Yue Zhe again. Don’t worry, their museum’s ranking in the industry is going to decrease again!

It’s really like this. There are only three museums in the last three countries that can move the King Tiger tank. Yingguo’s Bovington was even outclassed. There are quite a few museum cars in Osmium and Russia, but few of them can be driven. Others The country's museums are even more vulnerable.

"Dear, you bought another plane. I know the piston propeller planes from World War II, but do we really need so many modern fighter jets?"

After the pre-exhibition, on the way back to the hotel, Liv and Xia Yu talked about this issue. She knew about the second and third phases of the museum, but she checked the information online about this F-16, but it couldn't eject!

Is it necessary to strengthen the body structure like the MiG-29 I bought last time?

"Of course it is. Haven't you noticed that conflicts in various regions are now escalating, and the world structure is changing. The third world war cannot be fought, but proxy wars will only become more and more frequent."

Xia Yu taught his wife a lesson.

"Only by continuously upgrading our weapons and equipment and maintaining our generational advantage against targets can we seize the opportunity of the times and make the company bigger and stronger."

"Then there is the need for security. With the price of air defense weapons becoming cabbage, the sky is not safe, especially for transport aircraft and business jets that have no self-defense capability."

"If we are on the same plane, and someone else's fighter jets bite us, and there are anti-aircraft missiles on the ground chasing us, you won't even have time to parachute. If there are fighter jets escorting us, we have countermeasures."

Yes, there is a private jet sitting in the middle, escorted by two F-16s on the left and right. Let’s not talk about the sense of security. Everyone who comes has to say something, as a man.

"My dear, I just want to say what your mother taught me - you have money to burn."

Liv’s Chinese sentence is very standard.

Germans are still very frugal, but this is all the money Xia Yu earns, so she can only say so much.

Xia Yu said that he was unjust. He spent more than 50 euros on the body and parts of the King Tiger, and he paid back several times. Is there any value for money in exchange for two F-16s?

It doesn’t cost much to modify and upgrade, just hire two pilots, the labor cost is a bit higher, and the fuel cost, the most expensive part of the fighter operating costs, they have an oil field at home, so the aviation fuel is directly converted into production and transportation costs, which is better for themselves. What's wrong.

"Liv, do you know what the B in F-16BM means? It means that this is a two-seat aircraft. I want to drive it and take you to fly in the blue sky to see the vast, deep sea and the vast expanse. The grasslands and towering peaks, see the beauty of the world, and feel the beauty of the world."

Xia Yu started to perform. Who could withstand this kind of offensive? Liv fell immediately.

But there are so many two-seater aircraft, any aircraft can achieve this level, it doesn’t have to be the F-16.

But with the atmosphere here, who can still remain rational?

Of course, this also comes at a price. A fierce battle is inevitable. Xia Yu has already awakened when he heard the charge horn.

Xia Yu, who had been speechless all night and got up a little late, still looked normal. He ordered an extra dish of oysters from the country for the main course of lunch.

The main reason is that Xifei's Nelia oysters are small in size and not very enjoyable to eat. Moreover, oysters have a high zinc content. Compared with the evil heavy metals, this is an indispensable trace element for men.

Liv, who had just finished washing herself, was rosy and radiant. She looked good at first glance.

Sure enough, the novels are all lies, and only the brothers themselves know what the reality is like.

After lunch, Xia Yu read a contract drafted overnight and signed his name after modifying the delivery time.

The King Tiger tank at the Afika War Museum will be shipped to York in three months, and the two F-16s promised by the other party will also be legally decommissioned within a month.

And their pilots flew to Pakistan and were transferred to their hometown to complete the avionics upgrade.

The whole cycle may take half a year. After all, fighter jets are not transport aircraft, so it won't hurt if it goes slower.

The trip after signing the contract was to attend the opening ribbon-cutting of the Royal Tank Museum, and the next day, take the Royal Family's Black Hawk helicopter to the ancient city of Petra.

The ancient city of Petra is located at the eastern foot of Mount Nebo in the south of Yokohama, 260 kilometers away from Anduan. It is better to take a helicopter than to drive.

"Dong~dong~dong~~"

In front of the museum, amid the roar of live ammunition from several tanks, the old king stood in the middle and cut the ribbon.

Xia Yu also served as a special guest and cut off the opponent's left side.

Having supplied two heavyweight collections in a row, he deserves this honor and even gave a brief interview to Al Jazeera after the ribbon-cutting.

"The Royal Tank Museum of York uses tanks as war vehicles to tell the modern history of mankind..."

While talking braggingly to the camera, Xia Yu was thinking that this seemed to be the first time he had made important news.

On the opening day of the Afika War Museum, only local TV stations came, and its influence could not extend beyond Konluga, while the peninsula faced the entire Arab world.

And this is just a starting point, more people will know about him.

"Wow~Wow~~"

Amidst the noise of the propeller, a black hawk stirred up yellow sand in the sky and landed in an open space.

Xia Yu took his wife's hand and got off the plane. Johnny, Lawrence, and Rob got off the helicopter from the other side, guarding them.

Without the protection of armor, in non-war-torn countries like York, combat employees will serve as security guards, and the boss and his wife are key personnel.

They were tacitly allowed to carry pistols, and Johnny's suitcase also contained an MP5 K submachine gun, whose firepower could only be said to be moderate.

However, this is only a superficial demand. Xia Yu, who has a system, is not too afraid of sneak attacks. It's just that his current wife and future children need more security.

This is also the weakness of most people. In a special industry like his, we need to pay more attention to this issue.

"This is the Temple of Khazni."

After passing through a long section of the canyon where fighter jets could not sink and fly at all, the group finally came to the most worth-seeing part of the ancient city of Petra.

This is a Roman Corinthian temple, with a floor height of nearly 40 meters, enough to fit an Ultraman into it, but underneath is the tomb of King Arida IV.

"The Nabateans, a people defined as merchants, although they were conquered by the Romans, are worthy of worship."

The value of force in business is not enough. It took Xia Yu several years to understand this truth.

This was true in barbaric times, and even more so in civilized times. No matter how much wealth you have, it is just a number if you cannot withstand the iron hoof of the enemy.

Liv followed Xia Yu in bowing and worshiping. In China, she worshiped many gods like Buddha and Sanqing, mainly to give her a sense of participation.

"It's still limited by productivity. It can't be hidden like the pyramids, and it eventually became a tourist attraction."

After walking around for a while, he found that the entire area was filled with tombs, Xia Yu said with emotion.

Only if the resting place is buried deep underground can there be no possibility of being disturbed by others. Otherwise, it is easy to be dug up and ground into powder and made into oil paint (mummy brown). Fortunately, it can be mixed with red wine and drank to cure arthritis, stroke, and paralysis. , epilepsy, tuberculosis... it's so miserable.

　For well-known reasons, the equipment in my hometown can only be written sideways and cannot be touched head-on. The flankers are very sensitive, so it is better to modify them with curves.
