Starting as an arms dealer, I am the overlord in South America

The overall appearance is similar to the Dragon Kingdom in his memory.

In addition, although Hawana is blocked by the United States, many people can be seen wearing clothes with the Stars and Stripes on the streets. Some women wear revealing clothes that are very fashionable thirty years later.

From this point, it can be seen that the customs in Hawana are not as strict as those in the North Dynasty of East Asia.

The convoy arrived at the National Hotel.

Because it is a socialist country, everything is distributed.

The hotel we stayed in is not bad.

“General Luis, I won’t bother you any more. Take a rest and we’ll see you in the evening.”

At the entrance of the hotel, after arranging the accommodation, Raul said to Luis.

“”Okay!” Luis nodded with a smile.

After watching Raul and others leave, Luis took Elro and others upstairs.

The whole building is used to entertain distinguished guests. It only receives dignitaries and does not mix with other guests. In other words, representatives from two countries will not live in the same hotel.

The purpose of doing this is for safety.

After resting in the hotel for half a day, someone came to greet us in person in the evening. When we arrived

���At the meeting, the top military and political leaders of Kazakhstan were present.

Even Fidel, the founding father of Kazakhstan, was there.

It was obvious that Kazakhstan attached great importance to his arrival.

“Hello, General Louis, welcome to Hawana.”

Louis smiled and stretched out his hand, shook hands with the other party, and exchanged a few polite words with a smile.

Then, he took a seat at the invitation of Field, Raul and others.

At the dinner, there will definitely be no business.

To put it bluntly, tonight is just a meeting to get to know each other.

The formal talks will be held tomorrow morning. The next day.

In the morning.

Louis, accompanied by Neil, visited the navy, army and air force of Hawana.

At 10:30 in the morning, he arrived at the government building.

Because his identity is a representative of the military, this trip is mainly about military cooperation.

As for how to cooperate, in addition to finalizing the regular military exercises between the two sides, Louis directly proposed that Columbia plan to transfer a batch of Snapdragon fighter jets.

Hearing that Columbia was going to sell Snapdragon fighter jets, Raul became interested

“General Lewis, how do you plan to sell them? How many do you plan to sell?”

“That’s right. Currently, my country has more than 500 Snapdragon fighter jets in service, and plans to transfer and sell these fighter jets. The transfer price of each fighter jet is US$28 million, which is far lower than the market price.”

Since the Snapdragon fighter jets have been used in the battlefields of the Middle East and South America, the price of a new Snapdragon fighter jet has risen to 33 million US dollars.

The price is actually more expensive than the price of F16 for sale.

But people are willing to buy it.

Take Babayang for example. They have Snapdragon and F16 fighter jets (transferred to them by Sand Camel). After comparison, they still think that Snapdragon is better than F16.

After the news of the Snapdragon fighter jets’ great victory over the F16 fighter jets was heard in many battlefields, their reputation spread. Even if the F16 fighter jets were modified with active phased array radars, non-US allies would not buy F16 fighter jets.

So in this case, the price of Snapdragon fighter jets is very strong.

Raul doesn’t know the prices of F16 and Snapdragon, but he knows about MiG fighter jets.

The price of Snapdragon is undoubtedly much more expensive.

However, in beyond visual range combat, the MiG-29 can’t even beat the F16, let alone the Snapdragon.

Selling it for 28 million US dollars doesn’t seem to be too much. Expensive.

And Louis said it was lower than the market price, which means the price of Snapdragon should be more than 30 million US dollars.

Whether this is the case or not, an investigation will make it clear.

He didn’t think Louis would deceive him on this issue.

What he had to consider was whether to buy it and how much to buy.

After the disintegration of Soviet-Xiongnu, Hawana actually lost its largest economic sponsor, and its economy was tight. The active size of the army was reduced to more than 50,000 people.

If it hadn’t relied on Colombia and sold coffee, tropical fruits, grain and other crops to Colombia, the economy would have developed to a certain extent, and life would have been even more difficult.

Later, it joined the Balan Cooperation Organization, and recently cooperated with Sand Camel, Aqaba, Al Ya and other countries to export coffee, fruit, grain and other crops, earning a lot of foreign exchange.

Life is much better.

Otherwise, Raul would not dare to ask how much it was.

Even so, Hawana’s military expenditure is pitifully small, only 4 US dollars

“General Luis, how do you sell air-to-air missiles?

After thinking for a while, Raul decided to buy some to replace the old fighters such as the MiG-21 and MiG-23.

“It depends on what you want for air-to-air missiles. According to your situation, my suggestion is to buy Archer 4A air-to-air missiles. We can transfer some to your country. The price is 800,000 US dollars per missile, and the maximum range is 70 kilometers.”

Raul nodded slightly.

800,000 US dollars per missile is not cheap.

But it is 40 kilometers longer than the Su Xiong R-73 air-to-air missile they are currently equipped with.

You get what you pay for, he still knows

“General Luis, please wait a moment, I will make a phone call.

Raul stood up and said.

He had to communicate with Fidel.

“No problem, I’ll just wait”

“Sorry, I’ll leave you for a moment.”

Raul looked apologetic and left the room quickly.

Luis sighed in his heart. If it weren’t for the alliance between Kazakhstan and Wa, Luis would never have sold it for $28 million. If he sold it to other countries in the Middle East, Asia, etc., there would definitely be someone who would buy it for $30 million.

You know, Colombia’s Snapdragons have only been in service for more than three years at most. There is no other way. Kazakhstan is an ally, and a staunchly anti-American country. Just think of it as helping their younger brother.

Equipping them with some Snapdragon 3s can also compete with the US F15 and F16 in air combat.

On this side.

Raul came to a small room and quickly called his brother Fidel and briefly explained the matter.

“Do you think it is necessary to buy it?”

“Of course it is necessary. The Snapdragon fighter is stronger than the F16 of the United States. It has been tested on the battlefield. Now our domestic fighters are lagging behind too seriously, especially the MiG-21 and MiG-23, which are completely unable to keep up with the current mainstream fighters, and are seriously aging, and parts are difficult to find.

After being equipped with Snapdragon, our air force’s combat power will increase greatly, and we will not lose out even in an air duel with American fighters.” (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

“In that case, let’s spend $600 million to purchase it.”

“600 million dollars?”

Raul was surprised.

He expected 300 million dollars to buy seven or eight aircraft and dozens of missiles.

Unexpectedly, Fidel said 600 million dollars.

“Where does the $600 million come from? The remaining military expenditure is only over $200 million.”

“It will be there if we squeeze in. National defense construction is particularly important. Other expenses should be reduced and support this arms purchase first.”

Since Fidel said so, as the deputy head of the National Defense Committee, he naturally did not object.

“‘Sorry to have kept you waiting.’

Seeing Raul coming back, Luis shook his head to show that he was fine.

“General Louis, our country has decided to purchase 15 Snapdragon 3 fighter jets from your country, and 220 air-to-air missiles.”

Huh?

Louis was very surprised.

“General Raul, you said to purchase 15 fighter jets?”[]

“Yes, 15.”

Seeing Raul’s serious expression, Luis knew he had heard it right.

Although he was a little surprised that Hawana was willing to spend so much money on the purchase, it was a good thing after all.

Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, he smiled and said:”In this case, let’s finalize it. 15 Snapdragon fighters, 220 Archer 4A air-to-air missiles. After the contract is signed, the funds will be deposited into the corresponding account. After receiving the money, arrange 3-5 days to fly to Hawana.

Of course, you can also send pilots to Columbia.

In short, you decide”

“Send pilots over then. It’s just right that people from your country can help teach, so they should be able to get started faster.”

Raul thought about it and decided to send pilots to Colombia.

In this way, he can ask Colombian pilots for advice and learn faster.

Luis nodded when he heard it.

Then, the two parties signed the contract.

Seeing the bright red seal, Luis smiled with satisfaction. Qian Zhao￣’s opening business is not bad, it’s a good start.

After signing the contract, Luis left Hawana and went south to Atin without stopping.

He met with Atin’s President Carlos Menem and then promoted weapons.

15-type tanks and Snapdragon fighter jets.

Atin’s military expenditure is several times more than Hawana.

2.5%, and military expenditure has reached more than 5 billion US dollars.

I learned that Snapdragon sells for 28 million US dollars per unit.

Although Snapdragon is a single-engine, its performance is not weak.

It can fully serve as an air superiority fighter.

Of course, the main reason is that it is cheap.

As for the Type 15 tank, he is not interested.

It is enough for the Arden Army to have hundreds of tanks.

It is still a matter of money.

After tasting the sweetness, he believes that the Air Force is more important.

Louis expressed regret that Arden rejected the Type 15 tank.

In fact, in his opinion, this tank is very suitable for Arden, a national hall.

Arden is a plateau area.

If equipped with a Type 15 tank, it can be completely crushed when confronting Zhili.

It’s a pity that people don’t want it, so Louis naturally can’t force it.

After internal discussions in Arden, it was finally decided to purchase 44 second-hand Snapdragon 3 fighters from Columbia, with a total order amount of 1.232 billion US dollars..
