Chapter 387 Diego Garcia

On the same day as the mid-range ballistic missile test was launched in the Ming Dynasty, Britain and France in Europe also conducted the same missile test of their respective countries. The Gauls' target area was located in the desert of North Africa, while Britain directly crossed the Atlantic Ocean and then hit the ice field in Greenland. Anyway, the final result was that all hit the target, and the error of the two missiles was not more than a thousand meters.

This is already amazing. You should know that the best Redstone missile in the United States currently has an error of more than 300 meters when it hits 300 kilometers. The error of the v2 that year actually took ten kilometers.

Of course, this is mainly because the Ming Dynasty’s inertial guide was done well.

The day after the Ming, Britain and France tested the missiles, the Soviet Union couldn't wait to publicly carry out the test of the medium-range ballistic missile. According to the data they published themselves, the missile accurately hit the target area 3,000 kilometers away, and the error would not exceed 500 meters.

"Fake it, Lord Yuan, according to the information we just obtained, the maximum range of this missile will not exceed 1,500 kilometers, and the error will even reach a few kilometers."

Jansen said to Yang Feng with a smile.

Airbus Aerospace Systems' m1 medium-range ballistic missile was unbearably named as a meteor by the British government.

It greatly inspired the spirit of the British people, especially the British government, which announced that it would equip meteor missiles with nuclear warheads and would be equipped with at least 200 such nuclear missiles in the future, which made British public opinion feel like it was in the Victorian era. At this time, the three centaur-class aircraft carriers that had been on the ship for many years were also completed under the stimulation of the Soviet aircraft carriers. The construction of these three ships completely replicated the Kunlun, so Britain had five aircraft carriers that could match the Soviet Union, and confidence surged in the Mediterranean.

When drinking water and thinking about the source, Yang Feng, who helped them achieve all this, of course, had to express his intimacy. He also shared such top-secret information.

Of course, the British had to rely on Yang Feng, because their three centaur-class aircraft carriers also had no available carrier-based aircraft. De Havilland Company launched a sea-feet fox, but used the test flight model of this carrier-based aircraft to simulate air combat with Yang Feng's wind chasing. In the end, let alone the two-seat wind chasing with air-to-air missiles. Even single-seat wind chasing without air-to-air missiles, they still abused the little female fox. The latter continued the vampire layout. This layout did make it very maneuverable, but it seriously limited its level. The two Evans motives with a thrust of over five tons. They could not even let this carrier-based aircraft pass the sound. Such performance was obviously impossible to compete with Jacques 25 in the Mediterranean.

So the British had to buy carrier-based aircraft with Yang Feng.

This time they wanted to buy a tiger shark, but Fatty Qiu was in financial difficulties. Whether it was three centaur aircraft carriers, meteor medium-range ballistic missiles, atomic bombs, javelins and eagle-type air defense missiles, these were all money. Now Britain, where the colonies are getting less and less day by day, the finances are really tight. So Fatty Qiu wanted Yang Feng to buy their national debts, and then use the money from Yang Feng to buy the national debts to buy the tiger shark.

"It's no big deal."

Yang Feng touched his chin and pondered. It was no big deal, but the problem was that he had to get some real benefits.

"How about I buy a piece of land for you?"

Yang Feng suddenly said.

Jansen's heart beat violently and asked vigilantly: "Where do you want to buy?"

"You still have an archipelago in the Indian Ocean, called Diego Garcia? I'm missing a transit station in the Indian Ocean now. How about selling it to me?"

Yang Feng said.

Taking this opportunity to get Diego Garcia, completely cut off the future stinger that the United States has in the Indian Ocean, and has such a base in hand. After his counterfire bomber is completed, it can deter the entire Middle East. Otherwise, the bomber taken off from Banda Aceh will be a little farther away. Although it can also hit Riyadh with long-range cruise missiles, it is not as efficient as having such a base.

"You said there, there can be negotiated!"

Jansen said with a smile, and while speaking, he felt that Yang Feng wanted Temasek or North Borneo. If Yang Feng really asked for these two places, then it would be difficult for them to deal with, but Diego Garcia would be no big deal. Although it was also an important transit station for the British Navy during the war, the war has ended now and there is basically no use there.

"But if you sell it, Congress may not agree."

Then he said, although it is worthless, Britain sells his land to others, which is ultimately a shameful thing.

"Then let's rent it and rent it to me directly."

Yang Feng said that he didn't care much about this issue. He just had to grab it before the United States and control it. There was no difference between renting and buying. It was nothing more than setting the lease period for a longer period and setting it for a hundred years. Anyway, with the strength of Britain, it would be impossible for a salted fish to turn over for one day.

"If it's renting, it's very simple."

Jansen said with a smile.

Indeed, if it is renting, it is no big deal. Not to mention renting Diego Garcia, even if it is renting a place in the country as an air force base, the British government will not refuse it because of the factual ally between the two sides. What's more, the two-seat wind-chasing pilots stationed in Britain are actually no different from those stationed in Britain.

So the two sides determined their preliminary intentions. The Ming Empire rented the Diego Garcia Islands to which Mauritius, the British territory, and just gave the rent a symbolic point. Even a dollar doesn't matter. What's important is that the Ming Empire Bank purchased 300 million US dollars of British national bonds, but in fact, it didn't take the Imperial Bank's US dollar reserves. Yang Feng's industry in Britain had enough funds to purchase the national bonds.

However, half of it can be purchased with Long Yuan bills.

The British government used this Dragon Yuan bill to buy 120 latest Tiger Shark carrier-based fighters from Kunpeng Airlines. Due to the significant increase in production, the motivational thrust of this fighter has slightly increased. Some parts have also changed from expensive titanium alloys to other relatively cheap materials, so the price has also dropped sharply from the previous 800,000 yuan to 600,000 yuan. Although this price is still very painful, it is no longer so outrageous.

One hundred and twenty aircraft are seventy and two million dragons.

Of course, these tiger sharks do not carry air-to-air missiles, but this is no big deal, because in terms of performance alone, they are still invincible even without air-to-air missiles. This has proved that during the East Berlin operation last year, the West German Air Force had an air confrontation with the Soviet Air Force. The latest Jacques 25 in the hands of the Soviet Air Force was completely suppressed in front of such fighter jets.

What's more, by time, Britain can directly obtain air-to-air missiles from the Ming Dynasty by five or six years. Yang Feng also promised to open up technology for them to produce on their own, but it was just waiting for more than a year.

Yang Feng also gave Britain a big gift. He entrusted the British shipyard to build another heavy aircraft carrier for him, but it was required to be completed before January 1957, and the standard was based on the Eagle, which is currently in use. The Yingtian aircraft carrier he built himself will be in service at the beginning of next year. Next, he will not be able to run quickly and start building a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier directly at the leapfrog exhibition. His degree is not fast, and he will have to start construction in five or six years. The Americans started to build the Enterprise in 1958. But his goal is the Nimitz class, and it is the first time to build such a large aircraft carrier, so the construction degree will definitely not be too fast. It is estimated that it will be good to complete it with the Enterprise in 1961, and during this period, the Yingtian and Kunlun are definitely not enough.

It would be enough to buy a ship from Britain that is almost the same level as the Yingtian. The Eagle Level 2 is pretty good. After the class aircraft carrier is put into service, it is estimated that each ship will be able to be each ship in four years. When the second ship is put into service, the Kunlun can be directly retired from service. At that time, this aircraft carrier has been used for almost twenty years, not to mention that according to the current standards of various countries, it is too small. It can only be equipped with thirty aircraft aircraft carriers. If they are equipped with ghosts, they will probably be able to install more than a dozen aircraft. Such a fleet aircraft carrier is no longer of great use.

In addition, he also pre-ordered 30 vertical take-off and landing fighters under development. He did not plan to produce this fighter himself. Although it was developed in cooperation, there was no need to set up a separate production line for dozens of aircraft and hand it over to **** Sidley Company for production.

"By the way, are you interested in cooperating with the development of nuclear submarines?"

Yang Feng said immediately.

Jansen's heart jumped hard again.

Think about it, of course, the Nautilus of the United States is about to be completed, and the Soviets have already started the design of the first nuclear submarine. Of course, Britain does not want to be too behind in this regard, but this thing is too technically difficult, and it is completely unfamiliar.

"So how about cooperation? We, I think the Gauls should be invited to cooperate with us to develop them in cooperation. In my design, this nuclear submarine should not be responsible for conventional combat tasks, it should be responsible for a country's secondary nuclear counterattack mission. You must understand that once a war occurs, our ballistic missile base will definitely be the enemy's number one strike target. What if one day the enemy takes a Pearl Harbor-like sneak attack and take a nuclear strike against us first when we are unprepared?

We must have the ability to counterattack even if we encounter nuclear strikes. Simply put, it is to load nuclear missiles on our nuclear submarines and let them cruise in the ocean. As long as the enemy launches nuclear attacks on us, even if all our homelands are destroyed, these submarines can still shoot revenge nuclear bombs at the enemy."

Yang Feng said. (To be continued.)
