Chapter 245: Russian Secrets, the Power of TOS-1 Spitfire Tanks
Compared to the high posture he had just arrived in Russia, the Saudi prince was obviously much more low-key. Even his BMW 750li luxury armored vehicle did not dare to show off in front of Mavie, so he sat in directly.
This is not because the Saudi crown prince admits his conscience and thinks he is "rich" than Mawei. But because... at this time, he saw Mawei's subordinates transporting a bulletproof armored vehicle from the An-255 transport cabin, which he had never seen before. Looking at the extremely luxurious appearance, he knew it was specially customized at first glance.
The Saudi prince's eyesight is still very experienced. The customized armored vehicle transported from the An-255 cabin is the "Rolls-Royce Phantom V1" B6-level bulletproof vehicle modified by Mavie on the basis of the Rolls-Royce Silver Angel.
The exact full name of the car should be "Rolls-Royce Phantom Head LWB". At least it was developed by Rolls-Royce in 2006. The 6.749-liter V12 engine makes the car's maximum speed reach 6000.
The entire vehicle shell consists of armor, ceramics, bulletproof glass, special alloys, and multi-layer glass. Mavi even found ZIL and asked them to add the "stealth material" designed for the Russian president's car to effectively prevent radar tracking.
In terms of bulletproofing, the car can not only withstand the firepower of the AK47, but also not even a small rocket will cause any damage to it. The most important thing is that the whole body of the car is made of anti-adsorption materials, which can effectively prevent the enemy's small landmines and small grenades...
...
The Saudi prince sitting in his BMW 750li car "eyed" at Mavie's "Rolls-Royce Phantom Head LWB". He deeply felt the "ruthless crush" of the Russian tycoon.
His BMW 750li is priced at more than 6 million US dollars. Little did he know that the "Rolls-Royce Phantom LWB" modified at any cost, the construction cost alone is as high as more than 6 million US dollars! As for the price, it is definitely more than 10 million US dollars!
But then again, he would never sell this car, because Ma Wei now does not lack the money at all. What he wants is a "unique" pomp...
...
One hour later, the Saudi prince's convoy, led by the Army Tiger Armored Vehicle, drove to the 196th Secret Base of the Russian Army.
The reason why it is called a secret base is that most of the weapons and equipment in the base are not publicly disclosed. For example, the latest "tos-1 fire-breathing tank" developed by the Army is confidential. Many countries want to know the data of the tank, but the Russian military keeps it tightly and does not disclose any of it.
Under the leadership of the Army Major General, Mawei and others came to the tank warehouse of the military base. Dozens of confidential "tos-1 fire-breathing tanks" were parked here.
Each tank weighs 42 tons and is equipped with a 24-tube 300mm rocket launcher system, arranged in three layers. It is fierce and majestic in scale, making people feel that the firepower is fierce and extremely dangerous at a glance.
"Is this tank..." As soon as the Saudi prince saw the fire-breathing tank, his eyes immediately could not take away his eyes.
Mavie saw his reaction. Then he showed his true nature as a "prodigal businessman" and introduced to the Saudi Crown Prince, "Your Highness, the tanks in front of you are the latest tos-1 fire-breathing tank developed by our Russian military. As an important battlefield suppression weapon, it can effectively carry out various offensive and defensive operations supporting infantry and tanks, and flexibly transfer firepower. It mainly produces powerful lethality and destructive power to the target areas, open areas, fortifications, as well as vehicles, towns, and buildings."
"The tos-1 fire-breathing tank can maintain a speed of up to 60 kilometers per hour, and is also suitable for driving in rugged and complex terrain, with a combat range of 550 kilometers without an additional fuel tank. Due to the use of the T-72 chassis, its protective performance is also very good. In order to improve shooting accuracy, the tos-1 fire-breathing tank is equipped with a sight. It can destroy a small village or a large-scale cluster target within 7.5 seconds."
After listening to Mavi's introduction, the Saudi prince nodded in interest and asked to him, "So Mr. Mavie, how much does it cost to have a tos-1 fire-breathing tank? Is it convenient to talk about it?"
"The tank price is 15 million US dollars per vehicle, and each vehicle is equipped with a tornado multi-barrel rocket launcher system. Your Highness, the lethality of this fire-breathing tank is too great. Our Russian government generally does not export it to the outside world." Mawei said helplessly. However, compared with France and Germany's self-propelled rocket launcher prices, it is really several times more expensive.
You should know that the French self-propelled rocket launcher system was only about 1.5 million US dollars in 2001. The German self-propelled rocket launcher was about 1.6 million US dollars per unit.
"15 million US dollars per vehicle, this price... I can accept it! In this way, I want 20 your fire-breathing tanks." The prince of the local rich country was just cheerful. He asked for 20 fire-breathing tanks for 15 million US dollars when he came up, and he didn't even bargain.
Usually when encountering such a situation, the arms dealer had already agreed to the transaction and led to this transaction. This can be seen from the expression of the major general of the Russian Army standing beside him. If it were him, he would have agreed to it long ago.
But... Mawei is not an ordinary arms dealer, and he is really too lazy to do the order amount of 300 million US dollars.
"Your Highness, we can't make a deal with 20 vehicles. Because the fire-breathing tank is still in a highly confidential state. So if the order quantity is less than 60 vehicles, our Russian military will not take this risk." Mawei said, fooling people without paying their lives.
A rich country like Saudi Arabia could spend 3.5 billion US dollars to buy medium-range missiles in 1986. Not to mention this fire-breathing tank of just $15 million. So Mavie would definitely not let him go back for only $300 million.
"60 vehicles? Then the price is 900 million US dollars?" the Saudi prince said in a pondering manner. Although he has money in his pocket, he cannot spend it indiscriminately.
300 million US dollars can be completely decided, but after exceeding a certain amount, it is a little difficult. After all, he is not the king of Saudi Arabia now and has limited power.
"Mr. Mawei, can I consider this first? After all, your order amount is higher than our expectations." The Saudi prince said to Mawei tactfully.
"It's okay to think about it. There's still a missile exercise waiting for us to watch later. I believe that after watching the prince, His Highness, should make decisions." Ma Wei said with a faint smile. He understood the psychology of Saudi tyrants, not that he was unwilling to spend money, but that he wanted to make them feel that the money was worth it.
