Speaking of Iraq, everyone must have heard of Saddam. In the 1980s, he became the President of Iraq. After he took office, he vigorously developed oil. Driven by oil, Iraq not only vigorously developed its economy, but also improved its people's living standards. They have also mastered a major global artery, their social status has also been significantly improved, and they have quickly become a developed country in the Middle East. They have also purchased a lot of advanced weapons and equipment, and their overall strength should not be underestimated.
However, the rapid rise of Iraq has touched the interests of the United States. The US military always finds some high-sounding reasons to attack Iraq. Although Iraq’s economic development is fairly good, from the perspective of the Middle East, its military strength is not lagging behind. However, it is still much inferior to the United States, and the defeat is also expected.
Saddam hid 800 fighters deep in the desert
In a previous war in Iraq, Saddam hid 800 fighters in the desert. Such a move makes many people feel incomprehensible. If these fighters are deployed to fight the US military, it may be able to make a different change in the battle situation. But they would rather lose to the United States and hide their fighters. Why on earth?
For this matter, our military experts have also given corresponding explanations. Only now have they discovered how brilliant Saddam is. Experts pointed out that Saddam was well aware of their military strength, and that head-to-head confrontation with the United States is more to hit the rocks. You know, fighter planes play a very important role on the battlefield. Losing a fighter plane not only costs a lot of money, but also takes the lives of many excellent pilots. Knowing that he can't compete, it's better to hide this fighter plane and accumulate strength to prepare for a comeback in the future. Can
800 fighters reverse the situation?
At that time, the United States used a lot of advanced weapons and equipment in the war, and even used early warning aircraft to improve the accuracy of combat aircraft. However, Iraq was at a disadvantage within a few days of the war. In order to leave a way for himself, Saddam buried 800 planes in the desert. It is a pity that this war brought Iraq to a disastrous defeat. Saddam was imprisoned for three years, tortured by the US military every day, and eventually hanged. It can be said that the outcome is very tragic.
Not only that, but many of Saddam’s cronies were bought by the US military and quickly overthrew the Iraqi regime. The 800 fighters buried in the desert finally fell into the hands of the United States, some were dismantled, and some were shipped back to China. Later, after many people of insight knew Saddam's tactics, they understood his intentions and saw his shrewdness. Many netizens can't help but ask, if these 800 fighters were dispatched at that time, what would it be like in the end?
