1505 Anti-aircraft fire illuminates the night sky of Baghdad, still useless(1/2)
"Lieutenant Colonel, the target cannot be locked, how can I launch an air defense missile?"
The subordinates' words made the assistants around the lieutenant colonel commander think that the leader is doing something.
As the commander of the missile position, it is impossible to know that launching air defense missiles without locking the target will not have any effect.
Without a target, even if an air defense missile is launched, it will not have any effect.
The Lieutenant Colonel roared: "No matter whether it is locked or not, just fire the missile out!"
Everyone else stared at the colonel blankly.
"Are you all stupid? It's our dereliction of duty to not launch air defense missiles now! Do you really think other air defense forces have targets? Once the superiors track down, who will bear the consequences?"
The words of the lieutenant colonel made everyone understand.
Everyone also realized the seriousness of the problem.
At this moment, the Iraqi capital was exploding everywhere and burning. The shrill air defense sirens kept ringing throughout the city, and the entire city was awakened.
The whole city's air defense firepower is firing artillery shells, anti-aircraft machine gun bullets and short-range air defense missiles into the air.
The president spent a lot of money to get these air defense firepower back.
The entire air defense network was built by the President for a lot of effort.
There is no problem with these air defense systems.
The one in question is the operator.
After reminding the lieutenant colonel commander, everyone finally realized why the air defense fire points in the city were firing violently.
It’s not that the enemy’s invasion is too large, but that everyone is responsible for dereliction of duty.
"In what direction do we launch? There is not even the direction. What if the missile falls and blows up our own target?"
Some people raised concerns.
If there is no target for air defense missiles, it is easy to get into trouble.
"Start directly in the predetermined direction and fire half of the air defense missiles first."
The lieutenant colonel looked serious.
He doesn't want to bear the consequences.
After the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq War, the president continued to cleanse the domestic army, and many officers disappeared silently.
All commanders know how serious the consequences will be if they fail to do so.
Not only this air defense missile position, but other arrays are the same.
Dozens of air defense missile launch positions with different ranges are arranged around Baghdad, and the entire Baghdad is known as the most powerful city in the world.
The president even went to the Foreign Propaganda City, without his permission, no bird could ever approach Baghdad...
Now, Baghdad is exploding and burning.
Who can bear the president's anger?
At this moment, most of the air defense positions around Baghdad fired air defense missiles into the air without clear targets.
"Boom~Boom~Boom..."
The explosion continues.
After attacking the first batch of targets, f-117 did not leave immediately.
It was discovered that the ground air defense firepower was aimlessly fired, and even boldly continued to bombard the remaining targets.
It is not easy to fly from Saudi base to Baghdad.
The air defense fire on the ground was extremely cheerful, but no air defense missile could pose a threat to the F-117 that flexibly shuttled through the air.
"These guys really think that just by firing randomly, they can hit us by hitting dead rats? Damn Iraqis, there are really too many air defense missiles..."
There was only one bomb left in Colonel Studle's cabin.
Stop on the remaining targets and you can return.
The same is true for the two F-117s next to them. There is no problem at all when shuttled through the dense air defense fire network.
No difficulty at all.
The goal of bombing Iraq is too easy.
"Baghdad claims to be the most tight air defense city in the world, and it is simply vulnerable to our Nighthawk..."
A pilot smiled and said to Colonel Studle on the communication channel.
"Shut up! Do you think the ground can't find us?"
Colonel Studle harshly scolded his men.
Their target was an air base next to Baghdad.
The entire Bagh was exploding, and the airport was illuminated by strong light, and there were many fighter planes on the runway. Obviously, the Iraqis were preparing to take off urgently to intercept these f-117s from somewhere and where they came out.
This gave the F-117 a chance to bomb the airport.
Three F-117s lined up in arrows to attack the formation, and under the leadership of Colonel Studel, quickly approached the airfield and aimed at the fighter jets on the runway.
"bomb!"
Colonel Studle pressed the bomb drop button as soon as he issued the order.
Once again, the 908 kg bomb fell to the ground.
"Dong!Dong!Dong..."
The rapid sound of anti-aircraft guns fired, and the aviation bomb dropped by the f-117 sounded before it exploded.
The ground anti-aircraft gun positions around the air force base and the air defense missiles on the Sam-2 air defense missile launching position also took off instantly at this moment.
"Has it been discovered? Drop the bomb! Pull it up immediately!"
Colonel Studle made a decisive decision.
His bomb has been thrown out, worried that the other two f-117s will be hit by ground air defense fire.
"boom……"
The bomb dropped by Colonel Studel landed accurately on the airport runway. The 908 kilogram bomb instantly burst out with a ball of fire, and then a violent explosion spread around.
The huge shock wave generated by the explosion overturned the fighter planes not far from the bomb's landing point...
Under the power of huge bombs, these fighters are not like fighters weighing more than ten tons. Under the impact of the explosion shock wave, many fighters were blown up several times...
Even some fighter planes did not explode and started to burn!
"Boom~Boom~"
There were two violent explosions.
The moment the ground air defense fire sounded, two other f-117s also rushed to drop bombs.
They did not aim at the target, nor did they have time to consider where the bomb would land and what effect it would produce.
Two heavy bombs, one fell not far in front of the command center of the base terminal, and the shock wave caused all the glass in the command center building to shatter.
The other one fell to the grass next to the runway and exploded a huge bomb crater.
The soil was blown away...
"Kill them!"
In the command center, a major general commander was giving orders to his opponent with a distorted expression.
The moment the bomb in the sky was removed, the base's air defense radar discovered the opponent.
But near the airport, there is not much air defense firepower except for the anti-aircraft gun position and a small air defense missile launch position.
Just two hours ago, the president drew three flying shields-359s arranged to the airport to defend the president's secret residence...
No one had ever thought that in the hinterland of Baghdad, the air base with three Sam-2 and one Sam-3 air defense missile launching array within a radius of 20 kilometers would be bombed from the air.
Fortunately, the president had ordered the fighter planes to move around, otherwise the losses would have been heavy this time.
Before turning on the lights, the commander wanted to lure the fighter planes that were constantly dropping bombs on important targets in Baghdad.
The command center has lost contact with the national defense building and can only fight for each other.
"Dong!Dong!Dong..."
Anti-aircraft guns rang out in a dense manner.
"Do they think anti-aircraft guns can hit us?"
A major looked at the ballistics dragged out by anti-aircraft anti-aircraft gun shells in the night sky, and looked contemptuous.
In just a moment, they had already escaped from the attack range of anti-aircraft guns.
After dropping all the bombs, the f-117 was very fast.
What's more, the fuel consumption is not much left now, and on the way back, the air refueling machine needs to refuel them in the air before returning to the base.
To be continued...
