Chapter 321 Medium-range missile air defense system (asking for monthly votes)
Liu Tao looked at the expressions of the crowd and was very happy.
It was right to bring out such a killer weapon.
Even if the price is higher, even if they also sell Hongqi-1, Hongqi-2, and Hongqi-3 air defense missiles, they will be happy.
"Aegis-1 air defense missile system, $60 million per set, with a total of 1 launch unit, 4 launch systems, and 32 missiles." Liu Tao said with a smile: "I suggest that everyone should take battalions as units, and 4 Aegis-1 air defense missile systems per battalion."
A battalion is 4 launch units, 16 launch systems, 128 missiles, a total of $240 million!
$240 million per battalion, this price is not cheap, but it is not expensive either.
Mainly, this is the only advanced medium-range missile defense system in the international arms market.
They can only be sold to this company in the world.
There are no other branches!
"Oh, I forgot to tell you that if you want to buy the Aegis missile defense system, you have to purchase the Hongqi-1, Hongqi-2, and Hongqi-3 air defense missile systems at the same time." Liu Tao patted his head and said a little embarrassedly.
Although Liu Tao said so, it did not stop their enthusiasm.
The four countries each purchased four battalions of the Aegis-1 medium-range missile defense system, that is, each company purchased 16 sets, each company's order was US$960 million, and the total was US$3.84 billion.
In addition, the Hongqi-1, Hongqi-2, and Hongqi-3 air defense missile systems sold for US$1 billion.
The technical service fee was US$100 million per company!
Adding the Aegis-0 air defense missile system, the total contract order was US$8.04 billion.
The contract order was delivered in two years, with one batch delivered each year.
After signing the contract, they waited for the deposit to be paid and the subsequent delivery of goods.
After staying in Beijing for a few more days, Liu Tao returned to Dalian Shipyard.
At this time, the entire Dalian Shipyard is in full swing in building the first Type 054 frigate, and some ship designers are studying the Type 054 frigate.
In addition to the Type 054 frigate, the Dalian Shipyard is also building the Type 022 missile boat at the same time.
Since obtaining the permission of the leader, Liu Tao has cooperated with the State Shipbuilding Corporation and entrusted them with the production of 30 Type 022 missile boats.
Liu Tao will participate in the construction of the first Type 054 frigate for about 10 days a month, and the rest of the time will be spent on Panshan Group.
Almost one-third of the time is spent at Dalian Shipyard, one-third of the time is spent at Panshan Group, and the remaining less than one-third of the time is spent on vacation in Beijing, leaving these time for his wife and children.
Malone Contract Tactical Training Base.
The largest and most modernized contract tactical training base of the Chinese army.
The entire training base covers an area of 1,000 square kilometers.
At this time, the heavy composite brigade, medium composite brigade, and light composite brigade are conducting hard training in their respective barracks.
And the construction of the training base is still continuing.
The scale of the entire training base is very large, and it will eventually reach the barracks, hospitals, logistics, etc. for more than three divisions to be stationed. This is because the terrain is limited, otherwise it will reach the standard of five divisions to be stationed.
It is estimated that it will take another three years to complete all the construction.
Now many soldiers still live in military tents, and the conditions are still relatively difficult.
Even many training facilities are still under construction.
But the soldiers are training very hard, and they have never stopped training every day.
Even on rainy days, there will be certain rainy day training.
After all, on the battlefield, it is not that there will be no fighting when it rains.
Different arms have different training subjects.
Liu Tao, Li Fuguo, and Zhao Guoping came to the medium-sized synthetic brigade.
The medium-sized synthetic brigade has been equipped with some 81-type medium tanks and corresponding self-propelled artillery equipment.
However, there is still a big difference in equipment, and it is still not as good as the heavy synthetic brigade.
"Director, given the situation of our three synthetic brigades now, I suggest that we go to the front line to fight in battalions or companies and experience the baptism of battlefield fire." Li Fuguo said in a deep voice.
After such a long training period, the basic training was basically completed.
But Li Fuguo always felt that something was missing, and even the feeling of each combined battalion was not as good as the previous one.
Later, Li Fuguo figured it out, this was because the three combined brigades had not yet been on the battlefield to receive the baptism of the battlefield.
No matter how much soldiers are trained, there are soldiers who have been on the battlefield and soldiers who have not been on the battlefield. They are completely two different types of soldiers.
A unit that has been baptized by the battlefield and has not been baptized by the battlefield is also two completely different units.
Now it is not realistic for the entire combined brigade to go to the battlefield, but it is possible to use battalions or companies as units.
"In this way, I will apply to the higher-ups." Liu Tao pondered for a moment.
He naturally understood the benefits of actual combat.
It turned out that he did not plan to let the three combined brigades go to the battlefield so early, but to train more and equip more weapons and equipment.
Wait until they are fully equipped and fully staffed before going to the battlefield.
Now that Li Fuguo has proposed it, he must respect Li Fuguo as the military chief.
Then, he came to the training ground of the medium-sized combined battalion.
"Hello, chief!" A cadre in camouflage uniform came over.
Liu Tao looked at this person and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Although this man looked young, his skin was a little darker, and he looked very lean, with a unique military temperament.
"Who is this comrade?" Liu Tao didn't remember this person before.
Zhao Guoping introduced: "Comrade Wang Jianlin, graduated from Dalian Army Academy in 1979, stayed in the academy brigade as a staff officer, and was later transferred to the school's propaganda department as an officer. Last year we went to recruit people, and came here. Now he is the instructor of the armored company of the heavy brigade."
The instructor is the company commander who is the same as the company commander.
Liu Tao muttered to himself, this won't be one less real estate tycoon in the future.
"Do a good job!" Liu Tao patted Wang Jianlin on the shoulder and encouraged him.
Wang Jianlin is now 29 years old, and he is considered young and promising.
"Yes, chief!" Wang Jianlin saluted.
Liu Tao, Li Fuguo and Zhao Guoping were inspecting the training base.
The training intensity of the three combined brigades is very high, and the consumption is naturally beyond imagination.
The daily consumption of rice, vegetables, meat, etc. exceeds that of two divisions. In addition to normal meals, they often prepare fruits for the soldiers as much as possible.
The consumption of bullets and shells is also extremely terrifying. Even if they use training shells, it is still a terrifying number. 18,000 people shoot at least 500 bullets per year, which is 9 million bullets per year.
The consumption of bullets is not too exaggerated, but the shells are definitely painful to watch.
It’s not that the number of shells consumed is more than bullets, but the cost of shells is much higher than that of bullets.
And there are many large-caliber cannons here.
Usually, training shells are used, but live ammunition will always be used for a period of time.
And the price of using live ammunition is relatively high, even if it is made by yourself, the price is not cheap.
The soldiers fired a round of volleys of cannons that flew up, and the volleys were not shells, but banknotes, money!
The money consumed by the three combined brigades every year is much more than that consumed by the three divisions.
