Chapter 956: The Eve of the Bombing

"Our combat mission will be the longest voyage in our history. As for our specific operations, we have already arranged. Do you have any questions?" The base commander asked loudly at the Lakenheis Air Force Base at the Lakenheis Air Force Base.

At this time, the lights were first released, and the sky outside was already dark.

Seeing these determined young people, the commander was very satisfied. This is the solid support for the strong US Air Force to station troops around the world. They have a firm and brave team!

"Then, I will issue the last mission." said the commander.

The last mission came out temporarily? The pilots felt a little strange. They all stood at attention and followed the commander's orders intently.

"Now, everyone goes to the toilet for fifteen minutes, and then everyone gets a piece of our new equipment." The commander said very seriously.

But I couldn't help laughing below and looked at the thing a ground staff member distributed to them: it was a big piece of diapers!

"Remember, this is an order!" After saying that, the commander went back with great strides.

It takes more than ten hours to go back and forth, which is the first time. Although the fighter jet like the f111 is already large enough, it is not big enough to have a small toilet behind the cockpit. It is okay to directly design the seat as a toilet. Anyway, the f111 is a way to eject the entire cockpit. However, when the fighter jet is performing large overload maneuvers, it may be possible to suck the pilot's butt into the toilet seat.

Therefore, the only solution is to let them remove the filth in their bodies in advance. Then, put on diapers and don’t defecate for more than ten hours, but if you don’t urinate, you will definitely make these unlucky guys feel bad.

Paining diapers is also a temporary solution. At the beginning, the first astronaut to heaven used diapers to solve the problem.

Just as they were still whistling in the toilet and carrying out their final preparations before the battle, 28 KC10 and KC135 refueling aircraft were already starting to take off half an hour ahead of schedule at Fairford and Mildenhall Air Force Base near London.

At 19:36, 24 F111f fighter bombers carrying more than 20,000 pounds of bombs each finally slid onto the runway. The young American pilot who was lightly mounted operated a huge fighter plane and started taking off from the runway. Watching the runway lights passing by quickly, finally, disappeared, and the dark night sky was around him.

A total of 24 aircraft were formed. Each 6 aircraft formed a formation. At the same time, five ef111 electronic warfare aircraft also took off from Upper Heiford Air Force Base, following F111f, and undertake electronic jamming missions.

ef111 is an electronic fighter modified based on the f111. Like the Navy's EA6b, it is responsible for the main electronic jamming mission. They fly with their own bombing formations. After encountering ground threats, the jammers work at full speed, which can ensure the safety of their own formations.

57 aircraft over the English Channel 9,100 meters, assembled into a huge fleet of aircraft, the largest air strike fleet gathered over Britain since the end of World War II.

This time, I chose to gather at around 7 o'clock in the night. When I flew to the target area, it was about one or two o'clock in the morning. This was the time when ordinary people slept the most, and it was also the time when Libya's defense was weakest. At this time, the attack would definitely have a surprise attack effect.

They didn't know that Libya was already on the verge of war just as they took off.

It is absolutely impossible to take off and land such a large-scale fighter jet, so before that, the United States only claimed to carry out an exercise here, but Iraq was ambushing the British eyeliner and had long begun to observe near the air force base.

How is that possible? All those who take off are F111 fighter bombers, which are clearly performing bombing missions. Moreover, more than 20 tankers have taken off at once, which is definitely a long-distance bombing mission. When these situations come together, even fools know that the Americans are finally going to take ruthless action.

At Gaelyan, Gaddafi listened to the news with great enthusiasm that the largest attack aircraft fleet in decades had taken off over the UK, and he was full of respect for President Kusai's command.

If it weren't for Iraq, then he must be in Tripoli now and had rested as usual. How could he watch the development of the war situation like an outsider, and then wait for the next good show, as if he was not the main target of this American bombing.

Gaelyan is in Tripoli South, without seaside, and here is much safer, and since he knows that the American bombing is about to begin, it is definitely not Gaddafi's style to continue to stay in Tripoli.

The main task of Malwan coming here is to protect the safety of Iraqi personnel, and the person responsible for command is Arslan, a rising star in the Iraqi Air Force.

Before coming, Kusai had already explained the main direction and principles of this battle to Arslan. The specific operation still depends on Arslan's planning. Kusai trusted Arslan very much.

From the outside, the arrangement of Libya's air defense forces is still the same as before, with no changes, but those are fake models.

The US SR71 reconnaissance aircraft has been reconnaissance many times over Libya, but from the sky, it can only be rough. Therefore, when the reconnaissance aircraft and reconnaissance satellites did not pass over the sky, they replaced the real target with fake targets, and the real air defense missiles have begun to transfer positions.

Only when it appears suddenly can it achieve the most sudden power!

Moreover, between these positions, Iraq's latest frequency hopping radio stations are equipped with missile forces. The anti-interference ability of this radio station is much stronger. Unfortunately, due to limited conditions, if it can be installed in Iraq's C3i system, it can uniformly dispatch those air defense firepower and share information, which can play a greater role.

At this time, the US Air Force and Navy Aviation Corps didn't know that the Libya below had turned from a sheep into a hedgehog! If you want to touch it, you will still stab yourself!

At this time, there was a dark night sky outside, with only the navigation lights on the plane flashing.

A huge f111 slowly approached the KC10 tanker in front, and that's all he needed to do.

"Note that our children are going to have breastfeed." The gasoline jokingly said on the kc10 refueling machine, but at the same time, his hands began to concentrate on operating.

Refueling in the air has always been a very challenging action. It requires two aircraft to have close contact at a very short distance. Even during the day, refueling in the air is very dangerous, let alone at night.

However, for the US Air Force, the difficulty is greatly reduced because they use the method of hard tube refueling. The pilots can just align a comparator in the cockpit with the navigation lights in front according to the operating procedures, and then complete the task.

The rest is to use the superb skills of the fueling staff to stuff the telescopic fuel pipe into the oil receiving port of the f111.

"Okay, it's done!" The gasoline clerk skillfully and accurately inserted the fuel pipe, and the rolling fuel began to flow quickly into the fighter plane behind.

After the aerial refueling was completed, six spare f111, two ef111s and several empty tankers returned to the base. Two other f111s suffered mechanical failures, and the remaining 16 f111s, three ef111s and more than twenty tankers began a long journey.

The next refueling point is over the waters west of Portugal. After continuing to refuel over the waters north of Algeria and north of Tunisia, they will enter the war zone.

At the same time, the two aircraft carrier formations of the Coral Sea and the United States, wandering in the Mediterranean, immediately sailed to the coast of Libya and entered the battle position. The Coral Sea entered Benghazi and north of Tripoli, and both were 500 kilometers away from the waters.

The decks of the two aircraft carriers were filled with various aircraft. They began to work nervously, and they needed to eject about fifty carrier-based aircraft at high intensity, which was also a test for them.

In the early morning, as the air force formation was about to arrive, the carrier-based aircraft of the two aircraft carriers also began to be deployed quickly.

At this time, the personnel were at the busiest moment. The four catapults were already running at full power. Every few dozen seconds, an aircraft was ejected at high speed.

This operation is a unified operation of the Air Force and Navy's large group of aircraft, including attack aircraft, fighter jets, fighter bombers, electronic warfare aircraft, early warning aircraft, reconnaissance aircraft, anti-submarine aircraft, tanker aircraft, search and rescue helicopters and other support aircraft. This high-intensity air assembly is also the first time in recent years.

Everything is already on the string.

"Is our missiles OK?" asked a Libyan missile operator carefully on a secret surface-to-air missile position in Tripoli.

"Of course, this time, we will definitely be able to shoot the American plane down!" said a technician from Iraq.

After arriving here, Iraqi technicians took emergency action and disassembled several v880e5v28e missiles, which is the missile body of Sam 5 missile, and installed a new seeker.

"Of course there is no problem, wait and see!" said the Iraqi technician. In fact, they were not confident in their hearts, because they had not yet shot live ammunition, and they were going to have real combat.
