The rise of great powers: starting from military industry

"Papa~~"

Prince Abdullah held a Type 78 pistol, raised his hand, aimed at the target in front, and fired continuously.

Soon, after ten shots were fired, they stopped, and soldiers were already reporting the count.

Prince Abdullah and others in his party also tried target shooting.

"Yes, it is a very good pistol." Prince Abdul praised: "No wonder it is so loved by commanders at all levels of the Iraqi army and has become the standard weapon."

Liu Tao's heart moved.

It seems that Saudi Arabia is not ignorant of the situation in Iraq.

But think about it, the Arab world is quite united now, and Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, etc. are standing behind Iraq to provide financial support.

Liu Tao picked up the Type 78 automatic rifle and introduced the situation of this automatic rifle: "At present, this automatic rifle has become the standard rifle of our country's troops and is being installed on a large scale. It has experienced the baptism of war in February last year. Its performance Very superior.”

Prince Abdul's expression changed.

Whether a weapon performs well or not depends not on the testing ground, but on the battlefield.

Weapons are developed to kill enemies on the battlefield.

Only when it has experienced the baptism of war, adapted to the battlefield environment and can still show excellent performance, can it be a truly good weapon.

In the past few decades, the Soviet Union, Europe and the United States have developed many weapons with very advanced performance, but in the end they were never mass-produced because they could not be used in a battlefield environment.

Prince Abdul thought again that Iraq had purchased more than 400,000 of these automatic rifles to replace infantry rifles, and they were all replaced from elite troops.

Prince Abdullah personally tried the gun and performed target practice.

After testing the gun himself, Prince Abdul couldn't help but express his approval. It is indeed an excellent automatic rifle with long range, small recoil, high accuracy and strong lethality.

This is indeed an automatic rifle that is very suitable for use by the Saudi army.

I also tried the Type 78 general-purpose machine gun, which an adult can hold and shoot.

It will be different when the Type 78 heavy machine gun comes.

I saw only 20 soldiers, every two soldiers were in a group, each group had a 78-type heavy machine gun, just carrying it for a hundred meters, and then quickly installed it.

The tripod is fixed, the heavy machine gun is mounted, and the 12.7 mm heavy machine gun bullets are placed.

"Da da da~~~"

Ten heavy machine guns fired simultaneously and continuously, with flames spitting out and smoke billowing. The scene was extremely shocking.

In the defensive position, there are ten of these things. If the enemy does not have fire support, it is estimated that many people will not be able to charge forward.

The firing of one heavy machine gun is shocking, but the firing of ten heavy machine guns is even more shocking.

Everyone was shocked.

Prince Abdullah is no exception.

Because he had never seen the shocking scene of ten heavy machine guns firing at the same time.

He seemed to be able to see that the enemy was about to capture the position, and each enemy soldier was torn apart by the powerful firepower of the heavy machine gun.

"This heavy machine gun has a magazine capacity of 50 rounds. The bullet is 12.7 mm. The effective range reaches an astonishing 2,000 meters. If armor-piercing bullets are used, it can even pose a great threat to armored vehicles." Liu Tao introduced with a smile.

Prince Abdullah gives a thumbs up!

Although the firearms in front are not bad, they are light weapons after all.

But this heavy machine gun is different. It is a heavy weapon, and its power is not at the same level at all.

Such a heavy machine gun can greatly improve the firepower of infantry.

Liu Tao took this opportunity to introduce more about the Type 78 heavy machine gun.

Although in the past two years, due to the butterfly effect he caused, China's arms export quota has increased significantly compared with before. After deducting the deposit, it is equivalent to an annual export of two billion US dollars. This result is undoubtedly very good.

But you must know that in today's world, even if the two major hegemons are working hard to prepare for a war, the international situation is not calm and turbulent after all, and the annual arms trade volume reaches tens of billions.

China's annual arms exports of US$2 billion are estimated to be less than 5%.

And this is only the disclosed arms transaction amount. Many arms transactions are not disclosed. If this part is included, the proportion will be even lower.

In his heart, Liu Tao desperately hoped that Saudi Arabia, a big country, could give him a big order and spend money to kill him!

Because of this, today is really about the hard stuff, and the investment is huge.

Ten heavy machine guns, and a box of ammunition, based on the previous export price, would cost one thousand US dollars. In the blink of an eye, one thousand US dollars would be gone.

Then came the heavy sniper rifle. To show the power of the heavy sniper rifle, there was already a sheep and a cow in front.

A sniper holds a heavy sniper rifle and places the heavy sniper rifle on the ground.

Aim and shoot!

"Boom~~"

There was a deafening sound and a bullet flew out.

The sheep more than a thousand meters away was walking slowly. The bullet hit the sheep and the sheep flew away.

Through the telescope, everyone could see clearly and knew that the sheep would not survive.

And the gunshot disturbed the cow!

The cow ran in fear.

"Boom~~"

Another shot rang out.

The bullet hit the cow's belly, and the cow screamed and fell to the ground.

You know, the cow was a full 1,500 meters away, but it was still shot to death.

Liu Tao secretly marveled in his heart. He was worthy of being a sharpshooter chosen from thousands of people. This shot was accurate.

Even from such a distance, he can hit with one shot.

Prince Abdul and others looked shocked. They knew there was such a heavy sniper rifle, but they had never seen it with their own eyes. When they saw it in person today, they were all shocked by the power of the Type 78 heavy sniper rifle.

Liu Tao said: "This heavy sniper rifle is definitely the most powerful sniper rifle in the world today, with an effective and accurate range of 2,000 meters."

He could not help but slightly exaggerate the effective and accurate range of the heavy sniper rifle, "However, on the battlefield, a sniper killed the target at a distance of 2,700 meters."

Prince Abdul and others couldn't help but gasp, they were all shocked by the data Liu Tao said.

Doesn't that mean that if there is such a heavy sniper rifle, it means that enemy commanders are no longer safe within the range of 2700?

Prince Abdul could not help but think that not long ago, the Persians suffered a lot in the conflict with Iraq. I am afraid that many Persian commanders died under this heavy sniper rifle.

"Buy! You must buy it! Our Saudi army also needs such a powerful sniper rifle!" Prince Abdullah was moved, and his eyes were filled with fire.

He saw so many good things today that he couldn't wait to sell them on sale!

money! ?

Saudi Arabia is so poor that only money is left!

As long as you can buy advanced weapons with money, that won't be a problem!

To be honest, as oil becomes more and more important, the Middle East has become the focus of the world, and there are turmoils. Saudi Arabia is lying if it says it is not nervous.

The Pahlavi dynasty will collapse if it says it will. Who knows whether Saudi Arabia will be next.

So in my heart, Saudi Arabia also wants to strengthen its military power. Saudi Arabia does not have the ability to produce weapons, but Saudi Arabia can buy them!
