During the Saddam era, Iraq introduced the Tu-22 bomber, which was almost the only country in the Middle East that had such a powerful bomber. The Tu-22m, the so-called improved model of the Tu-22, was just a fool.

The Tu-22 is a backward fixed-wing subsonic bomber, while the Tu-22m is a variable sweep-wing supersonic bomber, which uses huge rectangular air intakes on both sides. Similar to the MiG-25, this aircraft has a maximum take-off weight of 124,000 kg and a maximum weapon load of 24,000 kg. It has a sprint speed of almost two Mach at a high altitude. Although its range is claimed to be more than 2,000 kilometers, it can actually reach almost five thousand meters or even seven thousand meters, which can be regarded as a strategic bomber.

This is a wolf in sheep's clothing!

At the beginning, after the Soviet Union equipped this kind of bomber, China suddenly found that all its existing planes could not intercept such bomber at all. As long as the Soviet Union was willing, it could fly over Beijing at any time. Therefore, it was the impatient improvement of the J-82 project.

For Iraq, if it is equipped with such bombers, it will be more capable and threaten the US aircraft carrier formation.

Therefore, Kusai has long been eyeing this kind of bomber. It is almost impossible to obtain it from Russia, and it can only be obtained from other Soviet republics, such as Ukraine!

In Ukraine, there are not only Tu-22m, but also Tu-95, and even several Tu-160s!

Just as various Iraqi personnel worked together to prepare for the strength of Iraq's defense cause, something they had not imagined happened.

"President Kusai," Yurid hurried to Kusai's office and said: "Turkish parties have announced that our Baghdad will be banned from passing through the Bosphorus."

Upon hearing this news, Kusai looked up and at this time. He was studying the deployment of Iraq's military forces, how to respond quickly to future struggles.

Hearing Yurid's voice, Kusai remembered that there was a roadblock on the route that he had to take before the warship returned to China, which was the strait in Türkiye!

For various reasons, the largest shipyard in the Soviet Union was in Ukraine along the Black Sea. The only way to the Black Sea to the Mediterranean is the Bosphorus Strait.

In later generations, the Varyag aircraft carrier purchased by a private company in China, which had all its weapons removed and only had empty shells, was announced by Türkiye to be used for military purposes and prohibited from passing.

As a result, China paid a large deposit, and after more than a year of diplomatic efforts, it finally obtained the right to pass. The empty shell aircraft carrier drifted at sea and experienced risks. It finally returned to the Eastern power, and finally reborn and became the Liaoning aircraft carrier.

If Iraq also takes this path, then I really don’t know that I will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

Kusai will never let a Türkiye delay its progress.

The Joker jumped the beam, actually came to cause trouble for Iraq at this critical moment! Kusai knew that behind Turkey, it must be the commander of the United States.

However, Turkey has not discovered it yet. Until now, Iraq only said that it needs an aircraft carrier, but it did not say that the aircraft carrier is Iraq's. The aircraft carrier is now in the Black Sea, and it is still flying a flag with a sickle and axe.

Everything outside is speculation.

Türkiye can prevent Iraq's aircraft carriers from passing, but can it prevent Soviet heavy-load cruisers from passing?

The Soviet Union had never used the word aircraft carrier. They all called it a heavy-duty cruiser, which was also for a remark when passing through the Bosphorus.

In fact, as long as the Soviet Union is strong, Turkey will not even dare to let go of a fart. Now, the Soviet Union is weak, Turkey dares to hum. Even when Russia, in later generations, drove the Kuznetsov aircraft carrier to the northern fleet base, Türkiye did not dare to shout.

They dared to stop the Soviet heavy-duty cruiser? Kusai felt that Türkiye played the role of a jumping clown this time.

However, since Türkiye has attacked, Iraq has to deal with it.

In Kusais' strategy, Turkey is also a very important aspect. If Turkey is closer to Iraq, then there is Libya in the southern part of the Eastern Mediterranean and Turkey in the north. This waters are like China's Bohai Bay, and it is Iraq's inland sea.

There are also American military bases in Turkey. It can be said that Turkey is also an accomplice of the Americans and is a threat to Iraq. In the initial attack on Israel, the US air force in Turkey was dispatched urgently to support Israel.

It is not easy to completely overturn the Turkish regime and cultivate a Turkish government close to Iraqis, but another thing is very easy!

That is, support the Kurds in Turkey and let them build their own country in southern Türkiye!

The Kurds are the fourth largest ethnic group in the Middle East after Arabia, Persia and Turkey. Israel, which accounts for only a minority, can establish its own country. This country with the largest population without a state hopes to establish its own country.

And their wishes will always be used by other forces.

For example, during the Iran-Iran War, Iraq and Iran encouraged the Kurds in both sides to carry out rebellion.

During the continuous confrontation between the two countries, they were also attacking the separatist actions of the Kurds in their own territory, which led to a large number of exiles and entering Türkiye.

Now, the Kurds in Turkey have occupied more than half of the entire Kurds. In southern Turkey, an armed force has emerged, the Workers' Party of Kurds, whose program of action is to establish their own country in the area where they grew up through force.

Since 1980, the Turkish military launched a military coup and took over the state regime. The tough Turkish military government adopted an iron-fisted policy against the Kurdish separatist forces. In addition to military suppression on them, it also clearly stipulated in the 1982 Constitution that prohibits the use of Kurdish language and further suppresses the Kurds' political and cultural rights.

Therefore, since 1983, the Kurds in Turkey have been constantly fighting each other.

Now, history has entered the 1990s, the Soviet Union has shown signs of division, and Yugoslavia has also split into several countries, which has greatly promoted the Kurds' national sentiment and their activities have become more frequent.

Kusai was not going to start with these things, but since the Turks wanted to suppress themselves, they would be too busy to take care of themselves.

"Yurid, the Mesiha Bureau must pay close attention to the situation in South Kurdistan, engage with their leaders, and we can provide some help when necessary," Kusai said.

"Yes, President." Yurid knew very well what he should do. Kusai had called it South Kurdistan, so he clearly admitted that it was a country.

Since Yugoslavia can be divided, why can't Türkiye?

"At the same time, we are closely monitoring the rest of the Kurds in our territory. If they want to go north and participate in activities in Turkey, we are very welcome. However, if they plan any activities in our territory, we will completely stop them before the signs are formed." Kusai said.

Playing with fire and burning your body is the most dangerous. If there is a trend of division in your own country, it is not what Kusai wants to see. It is best if they are all inspired and run to Turkey to support their brothers.

The last time the United States used Turkey's air base, it was already regarded as a threat by Kusai. Now, Turkey has begun to stand on the side of the United States regardless of its life and death, and Kusai's knife has waved at Türkiye without hesitation.

After seeing Yurid off, Kusai pinched his eyes in the middle. This time, he was indeed neglected. He forgot that there was this level in the Black Sea, and that there was also Turkey on the borders between Iraq and Iran, Libya and other countries.

Fortunately, in the southern part of Turkey, there were Kurds. Otherwise, the Americans used this as a springboard to threaten the northeast of the Arabs. After all, under the current situation, the Americans have strengthened their military strength in Turkey.

That damn Bush, will Iraq really threaten the United States? I wonder how many American nuclear warheads changed their targets and targeted Iraq?

Therefore, Iraq is also working hard. After absorbing a large number of Soviet rocket bricks, the Arab Space Company has begun to add a third stage based on the original D-10 missile to reach a range of 10,000 kilometers.

This missile is a medium-range missile that can carry three nuclear warheads of 150,000 tons equivalent, and at the same time, it can also carry a single warhead. Due to the decrease in load, the range will increase. At the same time, this is a two-stage ballistic missile. Iraq is working hard to add another third level to it, so that it has a range of more than 10,000 kilometers and the ability to attack the United States.

The biggest advantage of Americans is nuclear deterrence, which they will throw out at any time. There are no need to be many such things as ballistic missiles and nuclear weapons, but there must be!

In addition to ballistic missiles, Arab Space Company is also developing an amplified version of the Dongfeng-4 launch vehicle, hoping to achieve the ability to launch satellites. They also need to use space peacefully and undertake domestic and foreign launch services in the future.

Now, the activities of Yeliti and others in Moscow in the Soviet Union have become more and more intense. Kusai really doesn't know how long Gorbachev can last.

"President Kusai, the first Raptors fighter of Basra Aviation Industry Corporation, is about to be taken off the line. According to the itinerary, you will attend the offline ceremony there." At this time, the secretary came in and said.
