Chapter 425 Entering the War Zone
Iraq Northern Military Region Air Force Command.
Because of the importance of this air strike, His Excellency Kusai came to the Air Force Command in person to pay attention to the status of the front line.
What Iraq needs most at present is the support of air early warning aircraft. In this way, during the entire command process, the locations of each fighter can be fully tracked and provided them with navigation and early warning information.
Now, Iraq's long-range radar can only track over Hamadan at most. The situation in the future depends on the decision of the formation commander himself.
"Eagle Squadron, you have reached the 4-3-5 airspace. Please turn to heading 3-2-2 and prepare to meet with the Wild Wolf Squadron."
"Fighting Falcon Squadron, keep the course and keep moving forward."
Within the Air Force Command, voice transmission method was used, and various batches of fighter jets were being guided to the war zone by them.
On a large-scale map next to it, the people who performed war games were constantly moving the logos of those fighter planes.
When Kusai came here, it seemed as if the clock had returned to the 1950s. It would be quite laborious to organize such a large-scale attack. If the Iraqi air force became stronger and equipped with more fighter jets in the future, wouldn’t it be even more laborious to plan a large operation?
It seems that the C3i system under construction by the Southern Military Air Force must be expanded to the entire Iraqi Air Force as soon as possible. As an important node of the system, the air early warning aircraft must also find a way as soon as possible.
"His Excellency Kusai, welcome to the Air Force Command to inspect. We are now carrying out this large-scale air bombing operation. Our fleet will enter the air above the predetermined target in another half an hour." Abid reported excitedly.
His Excellency Kusai attaches great importance to the Air Force. New weapons of the Southern Military Region's Air Force are emerging one after another. For example, in this attack, around Tehran, which has the most tight defense, was the F-20 fighter jets from the Southern Military Region. They were the first to tear open their air defense networks to attack Iran's long-range radar and surface-to-air missile positions, and there was no need to take any risks. They launched two hundred kilometers away, and are currently in the north. There is no such weapon at all! When the pilot ventured to throw bombs over the other party's head, the other party's surface-to-air missiles were also a very big threat.
"Well. You guys continue to command." Kusai said. He saw that everything went very smoothly and was quite satisfied.
"Old Kusai, the fighter jets in our Northern Military Region are a bit aging. For example, the Red Bird 2 missiles that can be mounted by the F-20 fighter jets in the Southern Military Region can be equipped with. We do not have this ability." Abid was so happy to see Kusai. Finally spoke up.
"The Northern Military Region is also our focus. The Air Force will update a batch of modern fighter jets. However, it is not possible yet." Kusai said: "The F-20 fighter jets are currently given priority for the supply of the Southern Military Region. This is a light fighter jet. The threat we face in the north is even greater. The first thing we need to equip is a heavy air combat fighter jet."
Heavy air combat fighter? Abid thought, it wouldn't be the Soviet MiG-25, right? This kind of thing is heavy enough, but...
"I have sent Reyer to France. Our heavy fighter is the French Mirage 4000. Only such fighter can fight against Israel's F-15 fleet." Kusai said: "The pressure on the Northern Military Region is very high. Do you have confidence?"
"Totally confident!" said Abid.
With this strike by the Air Force, the Iranians have failed several wars and blocked by the outside world, and they are unable to make up for the losses suffered by the war. Their strength is shrinking sharply. If it is just to fight against Iran, then Iraq's existing F-20 fighter jets will be enough. It is still unknown how many Iranian Tomcats can take off.
However, if Iraq rests peacefully, it would be completely wrong, because Iraq still has an enemy that is eyeing Israel!
If Iraq wants to be strong, then the hungry neighbor facing Israel is Israel. Although Israel has a small land area, its combat effectiveness is definitely the most powerful in the Middle East. As an Arab power, Iraq will definitely be threatened by Israel during its rise. Israel will not sit idly by and watch the Arab countries be strong. The combat effectiveness of the Israeli Air Force is absolutely first-class. This is also the purpose of Kusai's active introduction of the Phantom 4000.
And when the Red Empire collapses, the close relationship with the United States will eventually end. At that time, if Iraq does not meet the interests of the United States, it will be oppressed by the other party at any time. The Iraqi Air Force will definitely conflict with the United States in the future. A powerful air force is something that Kusai has been working hard to build.
Thinking of facing the world's first-class air force, Kusai felt that the pressure on his shoulders was very high, and time was endless!
"The F-20 fighter jets from the Southern Military Region have joined with our northern fighter jets. They have begun to lower their altitudes and prepare to raid Tehran at a low altitude."
The radar on the front line can no longer capture the trajectory of its own low-altitude fighter jets. The rest must be seen from the pilots on the front line.
Adnan was flying an F-20 fighter jet. It was the first time that they carried out such a large-scale air raid, which made every pilot full of inexplicable excitement. The only regret was that Adnan was carrying two Red Bird 2 missiles under his wing, which meant that he would not reach the forefront at all. Two hundred kilometers away from Tehran, after launching the missile, he should return.
Thinking of the guys behind who were riding sparrow air-to-air missiles, Adnan was still a little envious because they all knew that the strength of the Iranian Air Force was no longer comparable to that of them. After the large-scale bombing, they had no idea how much combat effectiveness the Iranian Air Force could have. If there were only a few propeller trainers left in the Iranian Air Force, who would they play with in the future?
However, Adnan strictly enforced the order. In fact, throwing the Red Bird 2 missile is closer to the point of being more important. This is the first wave of strike. Although the Red Bird 2's inertial navigation system started to work from the same flight, it is also very important to throw such missiles at the right position and find their own definite course at the beginning of ignition, which will directly affect the flight behind.
The large-scale operation of the Iraqi Air Force was discovered by the only few long-range warning radars left in Iran. Suddenly, the Iranian Air Force began to become nervous.
In order to support the war in the south, the main force of the air force has been transferred to Isfahan. Just a few hours ago, the air base in Isfahan was attacked by two Iraqi surface-to-surface missiles, completely paralyzed the airport and destroyed several fighter jets. Now, the fighter jets at this base are no longer expected.
At the Tehran base, there are only three fighter squadrons left. Apart from the fighter jets that are still under maintenance, only eight can be dispatched, two F-14 Tomcats, three F-4 ghosts and three J-7.
The once powerful Iranian Air Force deterred the fleets of the entire Middle East, but now there is only this size left.
For the last attack operation, they used almost all the fighter jets that could be used in the air bases in the east, and even the two-seater fighter jets responsible for training missions were not spared. In this way, they gathered out the seemingly powerful air force last time and successfully suppressed the fighter jets of the Southern Military Region of Iraq, creating conditions for the army's attack.
But now, their family background is less than ten fighter jets that can take off.
The weapons procurement personnel stationed in Iran, Chengfei, China, are anxiously urging every day that the second batch of eight J-7 will not be transported in ten days.
They need to persevere in these few days, but eight fighter jets are still a drop in the bucket.
In the city of Kum in southern Tehran, Khomeini's eyes were staring at the sky empty.
He firmly believed that his approach was correct, and was it wrong to restore the Islamic world to the past traditions and avoid the influence of the changes of the times? He was actively upholding the teachings! In countries that had been civilized under the influence of the West, those Arab women could actually walk on the streets in explicit clothes, which was simply a blasphemy to Allah!
Exporting the Islamic Revolution to the entire Arab world was his lifelong goal!
But now, it seems that Allah is testing himself, Iraq is winning one after another, and Iran seems to be powerless to turn things around!
Ayatula came over: "Teacher, Iraq has dispatched a large number of fighter jets. They are likely to launch a large-scale air strike on us. It is more dangerous here. You might as well go back to the air raid shelter!"
Khomeini seemed to have not heard Ayatollah's words. He looked at the sky and murmured: "Iran will not surrender, let them come. They have planes, tanks, we have powerful people, and we have soldiers who are not afraid of death!"
He turned his head and said to Ayatollah: "Mobilize our people. If the Iraqis dare to attack Tehran, we will give our people weapons. Every Iranian is a strong soldier to resist Iraq's attack! Even if they occupy Tehran, they will never let them conquer us!"
Ayatollah was shocked. The leader, who has always been very wise and calm, was once full of energy when launching the Islamic Revolution, and was once a great spiritual leader who firmly believed that victory would belong to him after the Iraqi invasion. Why is it so negative today?
He was already disappointed with the war on the front line and knew that his army could no longer resist? So he thought of mobilizing the people and carrying out the final resistance. Although sending weapons to ordinary people would cause trouble to the Iraqi army, it would also completely lose control of the entire Iran. Ayatollah could not imagine the consequences of such an approach.
