Siheyuan: I eat melons while doing scientific research

Chapter 1165: Pharaoh's Great Harvest
As the chief engineer of the Defense Committee, he knew that the sea would not play a decisive role for the Pharaoh Empire, but he really didn't think the other side had any problems in the air and on land.

After all, before the war starts, we can only consider the scale and quantity of weapons and equipment, and it is difficult to evaluate other factors.

"Their main problem is personnel, but this problem is not easy to solve. After the Air Force has certain advanced equipment, as long as it can fly, it can fight back and forth with the enemy, but their biggest problem lies in 'flying'."

The biggest disadvantage suffered by the Pharaohs in the Six-Day War in 67 was that their planes were bombed before they could even take off, and 95% of their air force was destroyed on the ground.

"Fly? What's there that can't fly?" The chief engineer of the Defense Committee, who had been spoiled by our soldiers, could not imagine the extent of the decline of the Pharaoh Empire.

"Their territory seems vast, but in fact, most of their towns and population are concentrated in a small area at the mouth of the Nile River, lacking actual strategic depth. Their airports are concentrated and are all within the combat radius of their enemy's air force. The distance to the enemy's airports is not far, making them extremely vulnerable to a comprehensive attack. Once a sneak attack is successful, they will almost lose all their air force. This is their biggest problem," Gao Zhendong analyzed.

"Hiss~~~~~~" The chief engineer took a breath of cold air, breathing for Pharaoh.

It is said that although Gao Zhendong had retired from the battlefield a long time ago, he still had a keen eye for strategy and tactics and was extremely murderous. Now it seems that this is indeed true.

In the imagination, just a wave of the hand can destroy the enemy's air force, and it makes sense.

"But... they shouldn't be so stupid. There will always be air alert." The chief engineer hesitated.

Gao Zhendong smiled and said, "If it were me, I would start from the attack point, advance low along the Judean Mountains, and then launch a low-altitude raid from the Mediterranean Sea. In this way, the radar stations of Pharaoh and the allies would become ineffective, and the attack would be launched after 8:30 in the morning of Pharaoh's capital time." Gao Zhendong simply learned the tactics of Pharaoh's opponents in the Six-Day War.

"Why after 8:30?" The more the chief engineer listened, the colder his back became. A low-altitude raid might really be impossible to detect! But why was this time chosen?
"The Pharaohs have a bad habit. The shift changes at their air force bases are all at the same time, just like working in a factory." Gao Zhendong said with a smile.

"You mean they will take over at 8: in the morning?" The chief engineer asked more and more details.

"No, 9 o'clock, so the preparations for the shift change and some impatient people may start to slack off or hand over around 8:45."

It’s so toxic! It’s so toxic!
The chief engineer felt very disappointed. It turned out that the man was murderous and he had a way to kill him.

"So how are they going to deal with this problem?" Since you can see the problem, there is probably a solution.

"If they want to completely solve this problem, they may have to start from several aspects. I won't talk about the issue of people, which is a must. Moreover, the air force is an elite force compared to their army, and their training and discipline are much better. I won't say much about this aspect. But in terms of equipment, it would be best if they could get early warning aircraft..."

"Early warning aircraft? We are still developing that thing."

Gao Zhendong said: "Both the Citigroups and the Russians have them, but I don't recommend them to buy the Russians'. The Russians' early warning aircraft do not have downward-looking capabilities, so they are not very useful for ultra-low-altitude penetration."

The first generation of Russian early warning aircraft Tu-126 made its first flight in 62. However, as for the Russian electronic technology, those who understand it know it well. By the time they actually developed the second generation of early warning aircraft with downward-looking capability, it was almost the 80s.

This second generation is the A-50, which first flew in 1978. Taking the structural issues into consideration, no matter how much the A-50 was modified, it would not be much more advanced. So when Gao Zhendong traveled through time, he was still using it. It is hard to say how strong its early warning and command capabilities are.

Gao Zhendong doesn't care about killing or burying, and pointing out the problem is his best effort.

"anything else?"

"Also, when the situation becomes tense, a certain number of radar patrol ships will be placed at sea. They don't necessarily need air defense capabilities, but they must have radars, which are cheap and they can afford them."

“Why at sea?”

"Because if we come overland, we will pass through the Sinai Peninsula before entering the Pharaoh Kingdom base complex, and the people on the island may discover the attack fleet."

After Gao Zhendong said this, the chief engineer of the Defense Work Committee felt that he had grasped the key to the problem: "If we deploy our portable air defense missiles on ships, will it pose a major threat to low-altitude penetration aircraft?"

Hearing this, Gao Zhendong was stunned: "Hehe, you know what, Boss, the old ones are the wisest. Your idea is really good. With the width of the Nile Delta in Pharaoh's country, 5 to 8 ships can basically control the sea surface. Not to mention shooting them down, at least they can be discovered from a distance, and those around them can attack or defend themselves."

If a ship's radar is not high, the control range it can control is about 20 kilometers to the left and right. For the Nile Delta, a large number is not needed.

Although portable anti-aircraft missiles can only hit 4 kilometers, as long as they can defend themselves and detect enemy aircraft, they are enough to give the enemy a hard time.

As long as it is discovered early, even if the planes are not launched, at least the air defense system can be activated. "Okay, I understand. What about the army?" The chief engineer felt confident.

"The Army..." Gao Zhendong laughed. Everyone in their circle was the same. The Army was really weak. Even Xiaoba, who was beaten by Zang San, was considered a capable fighter. It was obvious how weak their combat effectiveness was.

Gao Zhendong really had no other choice. This matter was too closely related to people. If the human problem was not solved, it would be useless to say anything.

After thinking it over, he said, "Let's open the export of anti-tank missiles to them and let them buy more anti-tank missiles. We are selling anti-tank missiles anyway."

Tanks and armored vehicles are probably sold by the Russians, so we won't join in the fun. Moreover, these weapons are easy to be smashed in their hands. There are too many cases where their tanks were painted on the spot by the enemy and then shot back. If the human problem is not solved, nothing else will work.

"Anti-tank missiles?"

"Yes, in this way, if the organized troops are broken up, the remaining scattered troops with a little courage can still attack the enemy's armored forces and launch a counterattack." Gao Zhendong said with a smile.

"It seems like you look down on them. Why don't you sell rocket launchers that are easier to operate and cheaper?"

Gao Zhendong explained: "We don't sell rocket launchers with long range, but the old 40 rockets with short range. To be honest, I don't think their people would dare to fight them. By the way, we can sell them some 107 rockets, which are probably useful and suitable for them."

The old 40mm rifle, whether it was the Russians or ours, had a range of only 50 meters. To be safe, they had to fire even closer. Would the Pharaoh soldiers dare to get up to them at this distance? Gao Zhendong was not optimistic.

The 107mm gun is flexible and mobile, and can fire and run without much psychological burden. The firepower projected per unit time is dense, and if there is good reconnaissance or coordination between the front and rear, it can play a more or less role.

It seems that Comrade Gao Zhendong really looks down on Pharaoh's army.

"Okay, I've received your suggestion. I'll report it right away." The chief engineer decided to report the core of Gao Zhendong's words to the comrade in charge of equipment export. Of course, let's forget about those words that looked down on the military of friendly countries. They were really heartbreaking and damaged international relations.

When these words were passed on to the relevant negotiation site between our side and Pharaoh, the situation became like this.

"...We have decided to provide you with the latest missile frigate, an improved version of the meritorious model that served us well in previous naval battles, modified with heavy anti-ship missiles..."

"...Styx missile? No, no, no, this is our improved new heavy anti-ship missile. It is more advanced than the Styx and has a certain anti-interference ability. The technical indicators are basically the same as the medium-sized anti-ship missile, but it is more powerful and suitable for attacking merchant ships..."

"...Moreover, it also has radar and anti-aircraft missiles, and has a certain air defense capability. At the same time, it has very important uses..."

After the explanation given by our comrades, the people of Pharaoh were moved to tears. The Orientals are really good people. They not only provided us with weapons, but also helped us find our problems and loopholes. They really made me cry.

At the same time, he was also shocked and broke into a cold sweat. According to the Orientals' battle plan, his side would almost certainly suffer a great loss! The Orientals calculated all of their weaknesses to death. No wonder the Sindhu people were beaten to a pulp by them last year and are now divided into several pieces.

This kind of enemy is really terrible, but as a friend, it is truly the best friend.

Where can you find a good friend who sells weapons and strategies and tactics at the same time?

This is exactly in line with Gao Zhendong's idea. Since he can't sell the system now, it wouldn't be a bad idea to sell some strategies and tactics within his ability and build up his reputation first.

But what was beyond Gao Zhendong's expectation was that, in addition to our suggestions, Pharaoh also bought a batch of portable air defense missiles, including both portable and vehicle-mounted radar command types.

The latter is intended to be used to fill blind spots in airport air defense. As the almost only portable air defense missile with forward attack capability currently available, it can still play a role when combined with anti-aircraft guns as the last barrier of air defense for key areas.

As for the portable type, since there is not much threat from armed helicopters, their idea is to put it on an ordinary ship, and then together with the large escort boats serving as radar sentinel ships, fill the firepower gap between the escort boats.

Anyway, they are only responsible for dealing with low-altitude penetration aircraft. The flight environment of low-altitude penetration fighters is so harsh that it feels like you can't shoot them down but will be scared to fall into the sea.

The people of Pharaoh's country are not stupid, they just bought it a little early.
