America’s Big Hero

212 If you want to conduct actual combat exercises, you have to go to the border, which is obviously inappropriate now.

Only fixed targets can be played here.

Fortunately, Da Zuo brought enough people, hundreds of people worked together, and the site covering tens of square kilometers was quickly completed.

First came the recoilless gunner combination.

Unlike the photos I saw, a broken cannon was fixed on the car with wire. They were shooting with faith, and it counted wherever they hit...

On the east side, a driver, a deputy and observer, and a loader are formally refitted. Not only is a 105mm recoilless gun installed on the car, but also a height machine with a gear and screw structure, and a steering machine with a worm gear structure; The front legs are equipped with rubber wheels, and the left and right legs are equipped with handles, which can not only cooperate with the rubber wheels to make the artillery move on the ground for a short distance, but also serve as a fastening connection between the artillery and the artillery carriage.

In addition, the artillery is equipped with a simple fire control system consisting of an optical sight, laser range finder, ballistic computer and power supply.

After 10 uniformly refitted 212s with desert paint were fixed, Xiao En and Ka Dazuo boarded the Black Hawk helicopter with several members of the military.

The two guided missile destroyers under the umbrella are moored in Libyan waters. Of course, there must be no threat, absolutely not.

During this period of time, the shipboard Black Hawk has been lent to Card Dazuo for use, which is why Card Dazuo always talks about the Black Hawk. Among the general-purpose helicopters, the Black Hawk is really the trump card, there is no one!

A group of people watched the exercise in the sky, and at the next order, more than 10 desert-painted 212s rushed directly into the desert area.

To be honest, if it is not known in advance, it is still at an altitude of 150 meters, it is really difficult to find the 212 in Mercedes-Benz.

The dust raised was not high, and it hadn't surpassed the car body, so it couldn't be seen at all.

The exercise vehicle made seven turns and eight turns, and rushed towards the front position around the irregular route with tactical movements, and suddenly braked when it was about 2 kilometers away from the target.

The observer uses the rangefinder to measure the distance, adjusts the height and direction of the machine to align with the sight, and then shouts, "Car No. 1 has finished aiming, request to launch!"

A dozen vehicles finished aiming backwards, and the captain shouted, "Three rapid-fire, fire!"

"Launch!" "Launch!" "Launch!"...

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

Two kilometers away, the machine gun positions piled up with more than a dozen sandbags used as targets were filled with smoke and dust from the bombing, and the sandbags flew randomly.

On the helicopter, Ka Dazuo couldn't help shouting "Yes!"

In Chad, or in the battle in the Sahara Desert, it is the most common and common situation to use snakeskin bags or sacks to store sand in situ to build machine gun positions.

It is also the most difficult to deal with!

Now that such a good shelling effect can be achieved 2 kilometers away, Ka Dazuo is of course happy. After all, these equipment are used by his soldiers, and they may be pushed to the front line soon.

Is it easy to use? Ka Dazuo is from a serious military background. Of course, the Libyan army has a bit of hips, but Ka Dazuo does not lack the basic judgment ability. This thing is really suitable for the desert.

It does not run slowly, is light in weight, easy to maneuver, and has low logistical pressure. A jeep can seat three people and can hold more than 10 shells. Only 20 or so vehicles are needed to suddenly launch a fire coverage attack on an enemy position. !

Compared with large-caliber howitzers that are difficult to move, this kind of recoilless gun mounted on a car is very useful. After all, there are not so many targets that need howitzers to attack in desert areas.

After the drill of the 105 recoilless gun was completed, the convoy withdrew and dismantled all the guns. The following is the drill of adding heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns.

A driver, a main shooter is responsible for firing, and a secondary shooter is responsible for loading belts and quick barrel changes.

After the assembly was completed, the convoy set off again. This time the exercise site was full of erected wooden rakes.

The drill is a rapid-firing machine gun position, providing fire support for the infantry and suppressing the enemy.

The exercise was equally successful.

Then it's the highlight, the 107 rocket launcher!

10 212 Mercedes-Benz with rocket launchers hung on the desert, and started aiming beyond the visual range at a distance of 5 kilometers from the target position.

To put it bluntly, beyond-the-horizon aiming is to hit invisible targets, which requires professional artillery to complete the aiming strike without being able to see it according to the calculated coordinates of the enemy's position.

This point, Libyan soldiers are absolutely impossible to accomplish...

To calculate the shooting elements, at least a junior high school education or above is required.

10 vehicles, 5 kilometers away, completed the launch after the standard, and dense tail flames streaked across the sky. In just a few seconds, looking at the target position, there was a rumbling sound of explosions, and the smoke rose tens of meters high.

Compared with recoilless guns, this thing has a faster rate of fire, more intensive firepower, and greater power.

This is a nightmare for light infantry soldiers who have little war experience in Africa and have no protection.

The only problem is the amount of ammunition. The 212 can only carry 24 shells when it does not carry fuel, does not carry a lot of water and food, and only carries it to the maximum, that is, it fires two rounds.

If the loading speed is fast enough and skilled enough, in about ten minutes, 212 will completely lose its combat effectiveness.

If you only carry 12...that's the 10-second man!

Shoot a lot and shoot fast.

The last remaining is the anti-tank missile Red Arrow-73.

It is a copy of the AT-3 model of the former Soviet Union. It was designed and finalized in 1978. The maximum range is 3000 meters. The guidance method is manual wire control and infrared semi-automatic tracking.

It was also a strike beyond visual range. In order to prepare for this test, Ka Dazuo had someone consign a broken T60 over.

In many cases, the same piece of equipment has completely different combat effectiveness in the hands of humans and dogs.

And the gap between people is sometimes bigger than that between people and dogs.

The small Red Arrow 73 launcher was placed on the sand, and the missile was launched at super fast speed after the targeting equipment on the jeep was locked.

A loud bang hit the target.

A round hole is punched in the turret of the T60, and if it is hit by an anti-tank missile, it will not be blown out of a gap, nor will the turret be overturned.

The anti-tank missile utilizes the explosion of the shaped charge to cause the metal jet formed by the copper powder cover to break through the armor, leaving only a hole.

The metal jet after breaking through the armor will cause devastating damage to the internal personnel, and the internal equipment of many tanks will also be damaged.

The situation where the turret was overturned in the TV was caused by the metal jet hitting the ammunition stored inside the tank and causing the explosion.

The black hawk landed near the tank, and Ka Dazuo personally saw the effect of the shooting, and he was very satisfied.

In fact, there will be almost no such thing as tanks in the war with Chad. It is useless if there is less, and the logistical pressure will be too great if there are more.

Card Dazuo couldn't stand it, let alone Chad, one of the poorest countries in the world. Toyota cars and weapons were all given by French supporters.

For Colonel, the biggest role of anti-tank missiles is that they are portable, and can be used at any time to bombard those solid permanent fortresses or reinforced houses. Of course, they must be used when encountering tanks.

All the weapons were displayed, and Card Dazuo seemed extremely satisfied. They were not very advanced, but they were definitely enough to be used on the African battlefield.

The most important thing is that Xiao En promises to provide a large number of them, not like old Maozi or European products. With the platform, there is no ammunition!

Of course, the weapons on the east side have inherited part of Mao Laozi’s style. They are also tough and durable, and they are more suitable for use in desert areas.

Plus it's... cheap! !

Regardless of how backward the armed helicopter is, it is also an armed helicopter, and the price of 2.5 million is really not expensive.

The group returned to Tripoli in a mighty way, and Kadazuo entertained everyone with a simple banquet.

Simple, this is to show his frugality.

Anyway, he knew that the service team brought by Sean included chefs and food, so Ka Dazuo was very dissatisfied and lost his temper with his opponents once.

Sean's spectrum is bigger than his Ka Dazuo, this is not allowed!

The next day, the two met again to discuss the procurement plan in detail.

200 armed helicopters, including 5 base rocket launchers and 5 maintenance centers, Sean promised not to continue to sell them before completing Card Dazo's order, with a total price of 500 million.

It's set.

After talking about the helicopter, Ka Dazuo suddenly showed a bright smile to Sean, Sean's heart tightened, and he immediately put on a straight face.

"What are you going to do, I warn you, you must pay in cash or gold, and pay in advance, don't even try to talk to me about installments." Xiao En looked wary, and someone like Ka Dazuo smiled at you, absolutely nothing good!

"No, no, don't worry, I'm Kazuo rich." Dazuo patted his chest, and then said with a smile: "What I want to say is that I plan to purchase 5,000 vehicles in the first phase!"

Sean:? ? ?

"What is a vehicle? It's a platform. It's equipped with weapons!" Sean became anxious immediately. If it is equipped with weapons, it is called a military partner. Can a military partner be the same price as an ordinary vehicle!

"It can be equipped with weapons. I have no objection to that, but he is still no different from the small Toyota. It is a car, a civilian car." Cardazuo shook his head with a smile.

"Military use!" Sean gritted his teeth.

"That's not for military use." The chief said with a smile, "I want 5,000 cars and weapons. I'll figure out how to match them."

The corner of Sean's mouth twitched. He couldn't say that Ka Dazuo was not allowed to match it by himself. After all, the biggest selling point of this type of product is that it is versatile.

He doesn't care how the chief is matched, what he cares about is that his own interests cannot be damaged.

"You make it difficult for me, I can promise you, but the price, we need to re-negotiate!" Sean rubbed his brows, "First of all, the car, $50,000."

"It's too expensive, it's impossible, I can buy a BMW for 50,000 yuan!" Ka Dazuo looked very angry.

"Dude, BMW can't gallop in the desert with so many weapons!" Sean sneered, "I admit that this car has a simple structure, ugly style, and low performance. , even if there is a problem in the desert, as long as the driver is not stupid, he can repair it and continue on the road, even if many parts of the collision are deformed, it can still run.”

"If there is an oil leak, find a piece of cloth to block it and you can continue to run. If there are two missing wheel screws, there is no problem. If there is no coolant, it can be dealt with by urinating. It doesn't matter if the door is open. If the battery is dead, you can start it with the crank Even if there is only one frame left, it can still be driven, but those beautiful cars cannot!"

"What is a military vehicle is a vehicle that can still operate in a complex environment without maintenance and supplies. This is called a military vehicle!"

"It's not about superior performance, it's not about beauty, the kind of delicate woman's car that will block the air intake due to too much dust can't be used on the battlefield, or are you planning to build a maintenance center on the battlefield and invite a group of Europeans to come to it? Do you fix the car?"

Ka Dazuo opened his mouth and was speechless, but Xiao En grasped the point.

"$40,000, it can't be higher. I'm not those stupid royal families in Saudi Arabia. Damn it, you can buy this car for no more than 15,000. It's a civilian car, a civilian car, I say it's a civilian car!" Da Zuo said angrily.

The reason why there are so many 212s is that Card Dazuo considers that they will be used uniformly by the military. A unified model will put much less pressure on maintenance and logistics.

Xiao En tilted his head and thought for a while, but he still agreed. For civilian vehicles, Ka Dazuo can purchase them from the east.

Unless Xiao En persuades the United States and Europe to impose sanctions on the Yanjing Jeep factory, insisting that it is a military product and creating obstacles to exports.

DJI: Who called me!

After being reminded by Ka Dazuo, Xiao En suddenly thought of something, raised his hand to make Ka Dazuo shut up, and stroked his chin with his hand.

In fact, the 107 rocket launchers can be split up and used as civilian purchases.

This thing is too simple, that is, 12 steel pipes are assembled together, plus the height machine, steering machine, and an electronic ignition system.

Laiyang steel pipes are for civilian use, so how to use them after export has nothing to do with the manufacturer.

The high and low gears and the steering gear are not used to adjust the aiming, they are two sets of gears when removed.

The so-called electronic ignition system is just a few batteries and wires when disassembled.

As for the laser range finder, well, it's for geographic mapping.

Infrared sighting equipment... this is for field trips!

Perfect!

In the same way, it can be proved that the barrel of the 105 recoilless gun is also a steel pipe.

Other conical expansion chambers, breech block seats, and firing mechanisms are all disassembled, and the corresponding needs of civilian supplies can always be found.

At that time, only consumable shells will need to be purchased in the form of military supplies. For Xiao En, the protection fee that needs to be paid... Ah bah, the tax that needs to be paid is much less.

Tax avoidance can be done reasonably for civilian goods. Whether it is through an agent to keep the money in Africa or directly invest it, it can avoid tax. It is very simple.

Taxes are the fucking big deal!

If you want to understand, Sean doesn't count the 10,000 that the Colonel cut off!

5,000 vehicles, one less than 10,000 and...

Fuck, 50 million, so distressed!

With 107 rocket nests at the back, 105 recoilless guns, and 73 red arrows above, Xiao En's price is relatively dead.

The Rocket Nest platform is priced at $400,000, the 105 recoilless gun is priced at $150,000, and the Red Arrow 73 is priced at $300,000.

In fact, the price of the Red Arrow is relatively low, but the usage of this gadget is very small, and the first two are the most.

As for the purchase price of heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, Sean didn't care much.

This thing is sold by old men, in the Czech Republic, in Sweden, in Poland, in France...

It's all official, Sean doesn't bother to compete with them on it.

In the end, the overall price of the helicopter is 500 million, 212 cars are 200 million, 300 sets of rocket nests are 120 million, 500 sets of recoilless guns are 75 million, 50 sets of red arrows are 15 million, and all the rest are purchased for shells and rockets.

The total order value is US$1 billion.

It looks like a pile of tatters, but Cardano is very satisfied. Compared with those expensive tanks and planes, this thing is more practical, at least when dealing with rebels and African brothers.

In the end, Sean revealed some ideas about designing his own aircraft, but it did not attract the attention of Card Dazuo.

...

PS: First: The ban is still going on.

Second: I suddenly have a huge headache today, will I...
