Ali Apudul Sheikhri, 33 years old, is the commander of the armored forces, nicknamed "Armored Ali". He is an armored regiment commander of the ace of the Iraqi Republic Guard "Hamorabi". (This Ali is not the company commander in front. This Middle Eastern country has a common name phenomenon, just like our country's Wang Ming, Zhang Gang and others)

Ali was born in poverty. After joining the army, his living standards improved significantly. He changed from bean sprouts to fat-filled body. He was joked to be called "Armored Ali". However, his flaws did not conceal the merits. This person is extremely talented, especially in the command of armored troops. He is one of the few Iraqi armored soldiers who entered the French Saint-Sil Military Academy and the German armored soldiers school systematically learned Western armored soldiers tactics and strategies. []

Zhang Feng naturally would not let go of such talents. Taking advantage of the victory, his father agreed to expand the 35th Brigade into the 35th Division. Zhang Feng spoke out loudly and asked for the man over.

Not only did he ask for people, but even his equipment came over. Although my father promised to expand the 35th Division and the staff were easy to equip, the equipment was too difficult to equip. Tanks and armored vehicles have never been in stock. Although he ordered it from the Soviet Union, it consumed a lot since the war started. At the critical moment, the Soviet Union raised the price again. Saddam really couldn't raise too much military expenses. Just the pension of the soldiers who died in battle was already a bottomless pit. Therefore, Saddam is now borrowing money from other countries, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and other countries. Anyway, the war he is currently engaged in is also resisting the spread of Khomeini's fundamentalist movement, and he is fighting for them.

What he said must not be ignored, so Zhang Feng, on behalf of the 35th Division, negotiated with his father, and his father finally agreed to replenish the tank regiment where Ali of the Republic Guard was established into the 35th Division. However, the other equipment of the 35th Division will be ignored for the time being. The 35th Division can use the weapons it seizes for the time being, and when the finances are relaxed, they can provide them with enough Soviet weapons.

After consideration, Zhang Feng agreed to his father's conditions.

Last time in Susanguild, a large number of British chieftain tanks and American m113 armored vehicles were seized. Zhang Feng used these equipment, plus the original T-62 tanks and Type 63 armored vehicles, and temporarily armed the 35th Armored Division.

Everyone knows that the 35th Armored Division is the initiator of His Excellency Kusai, so the ammunition supply of the 35th Division, the Southern Military Region's logistics department, also solved the problem of Zhang Feng. Everything else is easy to say, the shells used by the chief tanks, and it took a lot of effort to finally solve them.

Zhang Feng knew that all this was temporary. After the war came to an end, he would equip the 35th Division into a first-class armored force!

Compared with equipment, talent is also very important, which is why he chose Armored Ali. What's more, there is all the equipment of this armored regiment.

The Soviet-made T-72 tank is a new generation of tanks trial-made based on the T-64 tank. The Soviet-made tanks, except for the T-62, are the next model of T-64, but the T-64 uses a large number of advanced technologies, such as automatic ammunition filling machines, aiming computers, etc. Therefore, the T-64 is mainly for internal use of the Soviet army, and is not very stable, so the next model has been improved, and the T-72 is equipped with troops in large quantities.

Compared with t-62, the biggest feature of t-72 is that it uses 125mm caliber artillery. Compared with the previous generation, the firepower has been greatly enhanced, and it can easily penetrate the front armor of several NATO second-generation main battle tanks, including the "Chief", and it uses automatic ammunition filling machines, and the personnel has been reduced to three people, and a new fire control system is adopted. Although the fire control system of t-72 is still a little simple, it can maintain a high firing accuracy in "static to dynamic" or "static to quiet" states when using early ballistic computers and optical rangefinders. The t-72's turret and the composite armor installed on the front of the vehicle body can effectively resist the attacks of armor-piercing shells fired by 105mm rifled guns commonly equipped by other tanks.

As the king of land warfare, the t-72 is worthy of its title. It can be said that any type of tank on the Middle East is not its opponent.

In 1979, the simplified version of T-72m of T-72 began to be exported to various Warsaw Pact countries. With good relations, Iraq was also equipped with such advanced tanks. Of course, it was equipped with Saddam's most trusted force, the Republic Guard.

Zhang Feng was naturally very satisfied that he could get this weapon from his father. Although he knew that this castrated version of T-72 was much simplified than the Soviet army's equipment model and was ridiculously simplified than the T-64, it was still a very successful tank, a bit behind m1a2, and it was simply an invincible existence against the chief and m60.

(T-72 model is behind the t-64, but in fact, t-64 is much more advanced than t-72. The tail stable tungsten alloy (depleted uranium) shell-piercing armor-piercing bomb, composite armor, reactive armor, V12 engine with a capacity of more than 1,000 horsepower, two-way stabilizer, automatic loader, complete three-defense and automatic fire extinguishing devices, night vision instruments and other devices were at that time, and the cost was more than three million US dollars.)

Compared with quantity, sometimes quality has more advantages.

As for the bmp-1 infantry fighting vehicle, it is an infantry fighting vehicle equipped with a large number of Soviet tank divisions and motorcycle divisions. The body of the vehicle adopts a steel plate welded structure, which can prevent gun and artillery shell fragments, and the arc-shaped area on the front is protected from 12.7mm armor-piercing bombs and armor-piercing incendiary bombs. The front armor is made of aluminum armor with reinforced ribs. It uses a 6-cylinder 300-horsepower diesel engine, with a torsion rod suspended, with the driving wheel in front and the induction wheel in the rear. There are 6 load-bearing wheels and 3 pulley pulleys on each side.

This infantry fighting vehicle has more powerful weapons. The main weapon is a 73mm 2a28 low-pressure smoothbore gun with low recoil. It uses an automatic loading mechanism and is supplied by 40 rounds of ammunition disks around the combat compartment. It is equipped with a fixed-mounted tail wing to stabilize armor-breaking shells. On the right side of the main gun, there is a 7.62mm parallel machine gun with an ammunition base of 2,000 rounds. There is a ventilation device in the turret to eliminate gunpowder gas in the turret.

In addition to these, there is a single-rail launcher of Seg anti-tank missiles above the main gun, equipped with 4 missiles, and 2 are stored in the body and turret. The missiles are loaded through the window in front of the top of the turret, with a range of 500 to 3,000 meters and can only be launched in the daytime. This kind of infantry fighting vehicle can still give it a try even if it faces a tank.

It can accommodate 8 soldiers with full weapons, 4 people on each side, and ride back to back, and personnel enter and exit through the back of the car. Each motorcycle platoon equipped with the car has two Sam-7 individual air defense missile launch devices.

Compared with it, the Type 63 infantry fighting vehicle is simply terrible.

In addition to the self-propelled artillery and self-propelled anti-aircraft guns, the equipment of such a tank regiment is probably worth an ordinary armored division. After Saddam agreed, he still felt a little painful when he recalled.

However, Ali was very happy. He was eager to go to the battlefield and to prove his abilities.

The most elite Republican Guard is mainly responsible for protecting the security of Baghdad. To put it bluntly, this force is President Saddam's guards, mainly to deter elements with abnormal movements and to suppress rebellions at any time. Therefore, unless the frontline war situation is urgent, the Republican Guard rarely dispatches to the frontline.

Moreover, after hearing about the record of Your Excellency Kusai, Ali knew that this commander had amazing battlefield intuition, and following him, he would definitely win a battle.

For example, this time, the Southern Military Region had a perfect operation, killing tens of thousands of Iranians and taking Abadan. Such a record was enough to inspire people.

No, it seems to be a bit early to say that. My own troops were going to completely occupy Abadan. However, the several small teams that arrived in advance had already occupied important parts. I wonder if I would get a war if I went there. Ali felt a little excited.

"Quick, speed up!" Armored Ali's fat belly was squeezed into a "small" tank. The fat on his belly trembled with the bumps. He was still passing the radio to order his tank group to accelerate and arrive at Abadan as soon as possible.
