Chapter 187 Flying Fish Arrives
Inside the command center, Zhang Feng frowned.
Now, the battle has begun, but to his surprise, the other party seemed to have sent a very clever commander.
The battle started from the sky first. The F-14 Tomcat fighter jets that had almost disappeared some time ago appeared again over Abadan, causing great casualties to its own air force, especially the first batch of four Phantom F1s, all shot down.[]
In my memory, the air battles seen by Iraq and Iran only occurred on a small scale. On a large-scale air battle like today, dozens of fighter jets appeared in the airspace over the narrow Abadan at the same time, which is very rare.
On the ground, our own ground troops had already contacted the opponent. Judging from the reports sent by the armored regiment, the Iranians had at least several armored brigades, plus tens of thousands of infantrymen, which was definitely a large counterattack, which made Zhang Feng a little suspicious, as if the opponent had a later move.
The situation under Khomeini's leadership of the body of flesh and blood did not appear. The other party seemed to have begun a modern war. First, it started with the strategic goal of seizing air supremacy and bombing one's own side. This technique is simply a replica of the US military. The only difference is that due to the strong resistance of the first four Phantom F1s and the false targets arranged by the armored forces on the ground, the opponent's first round of air strikes failed.
Zhang Feng knew that there were actually a large number of professional military command talents in the Iranian defense force. During the Bavire Dynasty, the Iranian army received strong support from the United States, and many middle and senior officers had studied at the West Point Military Academy in the United States. It was only because of Khomeini's revolution that this group of talents was lost in large numbers. Otherwise, my father would clamor for being the fourth military power in the world and would not be able to defeat Iran.
Now, Zhang Feng felt that the opponent's command routine must be directed by professional senior generals. The battle between masters must be more cautious.
Even if a bomb was caught in the refinery, it would make Zhang Feng feel very painful. There was a steady stream of wealth for him!
It was precisely this way that he did not order the entire 35th Division in Abadan City to attack, but only let Ali's armored regiment charge. He had to see clearly what powerful means the other party had.
The MiG-23 reconnaissance aircraft is ready to take off at any time, but because there is still fighting over Abadan, it is not carried out to perform reconnaissance missions in order to avoid accidental injury.
Now in the Southern Military Region, he has regarded him as a commanding war god. Even Yizart looked at Zhang Feng and said, "We are now in the north of Abadan, and there are several armored divisions and infantry divisions. How can they mobilize to wipe out the Iranians?"
These words are like the food in Zhang Feng’s mouth, and they eat them whenever they want.
"Report." Suddenly, an adjutant walked into the combat command hall.
"Say." Izart said: "What's the emergency?"
"French aerospace company sent a document that a flying fish missile was installed in the cargo hold of a civil aviation passenger plane. It arrived randomly, and engineers sent by Dassault said that it was to improve our Phantom F1's fire control software and hardware to guide the launch of the flying fish missile. Dassault also specially sent engineers to train our pilots for launching the missile."
So fast? What's going on with this aerospace company? Also, Dassault also got involved. Zhang Feng thought about it for a moment and realized that French people are indeed the ones who know how to do arms business.
The old virgin Alina must have felt that the business did not make much money and did not cheat her. As a result, when she inquired, she found that she was also in contact with China and wanted to introduce China's c801. Such a total would definitely not work! Anyway, she had already paid the deposit in advance, so she quickly completed the transportation of the first missile and the allocation of those personnel. After these personnel came over, they showed herself the powerful combat power of the Feiyu missile, trying to change her mind so that they could make more money.
Dassault, probably has an unspeakable purpose. In history, Iraq has introduced Phantom F1 in a large number of times. Now, since it is preparing to introduce the F-20 production line, it is impossible for Phantom F1 to be equipped in large quantities of the Iraqi Air Force. The heavy Phantom 4000 may not be officially put into service for a few years. During this period, Dassault obviously wants to order more Phantom F1. In addition to advanced electronic equipment, Phantom F1 can kill Iran's Tomcats in over-visual combat, and being able to launch flying fish on the sea is probably a big selling point.
As a result, the contract was just reached and the first flying fish had arrived.
When Izart heard the news, he said, "When they arrive, arrange for them to stay first. War is imminent here, but we have no time to take care of them."
Zhang Feng was so excited that this time, they might have made a mistake, because they bought this kind of missile only for resale. They did not think that they would install a large number of missiles and sold them to Argentina. Only when the Feiyu missiles could exert their power and kill the British warships on the sea.
Wait! Zhang Feng suddenly remembered a serious problem in his mind. The Iranians also have a strong navy!
Iran has a special geographical location, facing the Caspian Sea in the north and guarding the "throat" of the Gulf in the southwest, and has a long coastline. Therefore, it has long paid great attention to naval construction.
During the Pahlavi dynasty, using its close relationship with the West, Iran successively purchased a large amount of naval equipment from Western countries such as the United States and Britain, established a relatively powerful naval force, and became a regional naval power. Its strength even surpassed Israel in some aspects.
Representatives include the destroyer "Babul" class with a length of 114.8 meters and a full load displacement of 3,250 tons. It was originally a US ship built and put into service in the 1940s. After modification, it was equipped with a standard **-1mr box ship-to-air missile launcher and anti-submarine helicopter, which was purchased by King Pahlavi. There are also the frigate "Arwande" with a full load displacement of 1,350 tons and the light frigate "Bayando" class with a full load displacement of 1,135 tons.
In addition to those larger ships, there are also some missile boats, torpedo boats, and other ships that are very suitable for fighting guerrillas in narrow straits, such as the "Carmen" class, "Osa" class 2 missile boats, etc.
Correspondingly, Iran has many naval bases, including three naval bases in the Persian Gulf region, including Abbas Port, Bushere Port and Khomeini Port; in the Indian Ocean, there is the Chah Bahar submarine base in southern Iran, opposite the base is the Arabian Sea; along the Caspian Sea, Iran also has an Enlize naval base.
In contrast, the Iraqi Navy, which has only a small exit on the Fao Peninsula and only a few speedboats and gunboats, is simply not worth mentioning, and is even worse than the coast guard of a big country.
However, the Fao Peninsula is the most important place in Iraq. Most of Iraq's crude oil is exported outward through the Fao Peninsula.
And here is very close to the Iranian Navy's Port Khomeini!
Thinking of this, Zhang Feng shuddered: "Order the reconnaissance plane to take off immediately and check the nearby waters."
