Olajban csengetik az irakiak a franciaknak a fizetséget:
The Iraqi Ministry of Defense is actively evaluating plans to bolster its fleet of multi-role fighter aircraft, according to French financial newspaper La Tribune. The budget for this acquisition indicates that the first installment of $240 million has already been disbursed, with the unique arrangement stipulating that Iraq will settle the payment not in cash, but through oil deliveries to France. This innovative payment method reflects both Iraq’s abundant natural resources and its strategic economic considerations.
Mindeközben a lengyelek, akik anno 2003 körül rendeltek 48 Block 52 F-16 C/D gepet $3.2 milliárdért, most a mára komolyan elavult gépeiket egy könnyfakasztó $7.3 milliárdért upgradeltetik (!) a mostani modern standard környékére (APG-83, modern EW stb).
Hihetetlen.
Nem csoda, ha az amerikaiakat kerülik az irakiak...
