Chapter 830

“Warships? Except for aircraft carriers, our warships are not so valuable! The top class can’t be sold! And even if you sell it to Bahrain’s light frigate, they only need a few… “Li Mingshan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

If it is possible to sell warships to Saudi Arabia, it is an absolute good thing for the current navy.

The development of naval equipment is far more expensive than other systems.

“053 they really don’t want a few more, what if you add 052?” Xie Kai said while looking at the two big men.

“impossible!”

“No!”

Almost unanimously, both of them opposed the sale of the 052 ship.

“You die of that heart, for the sake of money, you can’t sell everything good!” Long Yaohua said with a serious face.

There is no problem with the 053 frigate. 052 is absolutely not allowed. You can’t learn army equipment and you can buy everything.

Li Mingshan also warned Xie Kai, “Although the Type 052 is still far from the advanced international guided missile destroyers, it is also the most advanced equipment of our domestic navy. This thing is sold, and the future development direction of our navy is very different. It is easy for foreign countries to master! The navy is always our weakness.”

In a word, 052 don’t even think about it, sell the 053 model, just sell it.

Anyway, no matter what the thing is, there are only 2,000 tons.

“…” Xie Kai couldn’t say anything.

A Type 052 can sell for hundreds of millions of dollars.

“If you don’t sell 052, you can’t just rely on 053. It was sold to Bahrain for $200 million, which is already a sky-high price…” Zheng Yucheng said. Now he just wants to take the $5 billion order. “The British Class 42 Sheffield destroyer, until now, the price of one ship will not exceed 350 million U.S. dollars…”

053H3 has been changed beyond recognition. The more than 2,000-ton warship is equipped with air defense and anti-ship, and a missile system for ground attack has been added, which originally made the ship’s superstructure seem extremely crowded.

Even a small country like Bahrain that does not need an ocean-going navy can buy two for fun.

What’s more, there is another reason for Bahrain procurement because it must be delivered within one year!

Otherwise, it would be impossible to sell at a high price of $200 million.

If a local tyrant like Saudi Arabia needs warships, whether it is American, French, or British, it is not a problem.

“You can’t sell the 052 ship anyway.” No matter what Xie Kai said, it is impossible for the national level to agree to sell the most advanced guided-missile destroyer.

Unless there is better.

Obviously, there is no such thing now.

“What about submarines?” Xie Kai gritted his teeth and asked, “Nuclear submarines will certainly not be sold, but what about conventional submarines?”

“035 is ok, there is a foreign trade model.” Long Yaohua said, “but it is difficult to deliver in the short term, and the design modification has not been completed yet. No order has been obtained.”

“Navy equipment, I always think it is unlikely that Saudi Arabia has no navy!” Zheng Yucheng said.

Navy equipment is too expensive.

Although Saudi Arabia is close to the sea on both sides of the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea, the coast seems to be very long. Apart from some small patrol boats, it has no navy at all.


No country in the Middle East has a strong navy.

Otherwise, the Persian attack on the ship would not make Saudi Arabia so painful.

“We can only use naval equipment, unless we have more advanced equipment to sell to them!” Xie Kai sighed, the time is too short, and they don’t have a lot of things that can be used for export. “A single piece of naval equipment may not be appreciated by them. What if we sell them a complete naval fleet?”

“Sell the fleet?” Everyone was puzzled.

What is the difference between a warship and a fleet?

“The Saudi Navy’s missions are similar to ours. They are all offshore defenses. Previously, Egypt imported two 053HEs from our country. After Bahrain ordered two more, it would change the naval situation in the entire Middle East. If Qatar and the Soviet Union Sign the contract…” Xie Kai said.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Although the Chinese navy’s equipment is not advanced enough, it has always been studying offshore defense. In this regard, it is more researched than any country in the world.

The offensive ability is not good, but the defensive ability is not too bad.

“I can only try.” Long Yaohua and the others are also unwilling to give up such a huge order.

Five billion dollars!

The entire Chinese military industry system can get a piece of the pie, and funds for upgrading technological production capacity are not so lacking.

The country does not have a lot of funding each year, it has to feed millions of troops, and it has to update its equipment.

Xie Kai found Prince Sultan again.

“Do you have a plan?” Wang Ye didn’t expect Xie Kai to look for him so quickly. They were also analyzing what equipment the Chinese lacked.

In fact, Sultan wanted to force Xie Kai and the others to sell the mushroom bombs. Even if there are only three to five, and it costs US$2 billion, it is definitely a bargain.

When the time comes, Israel will not dare to beep anymore.

As long as it cannot be destroyed all at once, one piece will bring the entire Israel to ruins.

Of course, this is just their imagination.

They also know that this possibility is very small. If China fails to meet their conditions, they will continue to lower prices and obtain these weapons and equipment at a lower price.

“His Royal Highness, don’t you know if you are interested in naval equipment?” Xie Kai is straight to the point.

“Warships? We don’t need warships!” Sultan thought Xie Kai would come up with something else. When he heard that it was naval equipment, he suddenly lost interest. “Thank you, even if we are interested in warships, we will Those who choose Europe, your own warships are not very good…”

“No, Your Majesty, you don’t understand what I mean. I’m not just talking about a single warship. If it’s just a single warship, the warships of the European and American naval powers are better than ours! But our navy has an advantage. It is the old brands. A naval power can’t be compared!” Xie Kai said confidently.

Lafata said with a smile, “Thanks, we are the air defense air force! What advantage do you have?”

Even the prince doesn’t think the advantage Xie Kai said exists.

The Chinese navy can only cruise in its own territorial waters.

The power is not even as strong as the naval power on the island they have not recovered.

“Offshore defense and sea-land-air linkage!” Xie Kai’s words left the two of them puzzled.

They just looked at Xie Kai with weird expressions on their faces.

“His Royal Highness, Colonel, I know, you will think that I am putting a polish on the face of our Navy…” Xie Kai is not angry, selling equipment, it has to be thick-skinned. “The national defense policies of our two countries have one thing in common, and that is strategic defense!”

“That’s right.” Wang Ye supported Xie Kai’s statement.

“The Chinese navy is not strong, everyone knows. But not many people know that our navy’s mission is only offshore defense!” Xie Kai is now completely beginning to blow, “China has suffered a hundred years of humiliation, the beginning is from the sea. … After the founding of New China, can this situation be changed? It stands to reason that the development of Chinese naval equipment should be given priority…”

What Xie Kai said, made the Saudis feel like this is the case.

However, China has not put all its focus on the navy, and even the navy is not in the priority development sequence.

“Because our navy has always studied offshore defense… Your country’s naval power is very weak now, but it has a long coastline, whether it is the Red Sea or the Persian Gulf… Therefore, I think your country’s naval construction should be strengthened…”

“Thanks, do you want to sell the small frigate sold to the Egyptian navy, or are you going to sell the 051 model that has long been behind?” Prince Sultan asked with a smile while shaking his head.

These are simply ignored.

“Neither!” Xie Kai was still not angry, and shook his head calmly and said, “We sell the entire fleet!”

“what?”

Both of them were so shocked by Xie Kai’s words that they didn’t know how to answer.

The entire fleet!

“Yes, the entire fleet! Not only warships, but also submarines, and even supply ships… At the same time, our navy is responsible for training the construction of naval offshore defense forces for your country…” Xie Kai said shamelessly.

The confidence on his face made Sultan and Rafata completely unable to react.



Does the Chinese Navy really have any very powerful defense methods?

“In addition, your Highness, once you successfully help your country build a naval fleet that can defend both sides of the coastline, you will become the father of the entire Saudi Navy…” This is attractive.

Prince Sultan is the crown prince!

And he served as the director of the Saudi army…

“Tell me, how about this kind of fleet building plan you provide?” The prince was not too excited, but asked what types of naval equipment Xie Kai would provide.

“The guided missile frigate that is more advanced than that purchased by Egypt, the 053H3 frigate with anti-ship, air defense, and ground attack capabilities can be used as the main battleship of your entire navy. Because the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf have narrow exports, shallow water, and large The warship is not suitable…”

“Has anti-ship, air defense, and ground attack capabilities?” Sultan didn’t believe it. “What is the displacement of your warship?”

“The standard displacement is 2250 tons, and the full load displacement reaches 2393 tons… The ground red flag series will be used for the surface attack missile system… The ground red flag missiles purchased by your country can also be used here…” Xie Kai sees the opponent I believe that I can only pretend to accidentally leak the mouth and leak out the Bahrain’s purchase of warships, “Bahrain purchased two of these warships…”

It seems to be aware of the leak, and hastily stopped it.

“Bahrain?” Prince Sultan looked surprised.

“His Royal Highness, we met Suleiman Khalifa, King of Bahrain in Xiangjiang. It turns out that he came to China to buy a warship!” Rafata hurriedly reminded the prince.

Encountered in Xiangjiang before, King Suleiman Khalifa of Bahrain asked the prince what he was doing in Xiangjiang. The prince said he was traveling, and he asked him what he was doing. He said he was on vacation…

Feelings, everyone does the same thing.

Bahrain and Qatar are fighting each other, looking at each other is not pleasing to the eye, Qatar is looking for the Soviet Union to buy warships, the Saudi royal family knows.

Even mediating, but the two brothers are not fuel efficient!

Ever since, the prince became upset.
