Chapter 369 Firefight!

Chapter 376: Firefight!

Although the aircraft is not made of plastic, it will never be left outside to be exposed to wind and sun. The F22 requires a constant-temperature warehouse.

Of course, this does not include Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in the United States, which has an aircraft cemetery.

What does it mean to be wealthy?

Morocco definitely does not have this strength.

According to a series of photos taken by the U2 reconnaissance aircraft, the air base deployed by Morocco in Western Sahara is U-shaped and covers a large area. There are too many open spaces in the desert area.

The staff team has calculated that if a covering strike against the entire air force base is to be carried out, the number of missiles required will be twice that of the last bombing of the YL Shipyard!

This is unrealistic.

Therefore, the staff group was waiting for the time when the Dakhla base would ask for help.

Only now will those aircraft be pulled out of the hangar and appear in rows on the airport, so that they can be destroyed at once!

…

Orange fire erupted from the bottom of the missile's butt, setting off the white smoke in a magnificent color.

Especially the scene where ten missiles are launched at the same time is really beautiful!

Sean just stood not far away and looked up, watching the East 1 line up and quickly take off into the air, until it slowly turned into small dots.

He did not follow the troops to the front line. As he said, everyone is equal before bullets and artillery, and he did not want to join in the fun.

A few minutes later, 10 missiles fell almost straight from the sky over an air force base in central Western Sahara, more than 300 kilometers away.

Falling at 6 times the speed of sound, there is no sound!

The air defense radar at the air force base discovered the missile when it entered an altitude of 15,000 meters, and a harsh air raid siren sounded!

But there was no reaction time at all, and no reaction time was allowed. The moment the Moroccan soldiers in the base were frightened by the air raid siren and quickly raised their heads.

The ten missiles were like the big feet of the gods, trampling them down at will and with overwhelming force!

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

Magma-colored mushroom clouds rose up one after another, and finally gathered into a ball, rolling and rising into the sky. The shock wave accompanied by fire destroyed everything on the tarmac!

The loud noise of the explosion rolled forward in all directions until the sound waves disappeared, until the mushroom cloud rolled and disappeared.

When you look at the tarmac at this time, you will feel it is very clean!

None of the scattered gravel was gone, all carried away by the shock wave, leaving only large, black-smoking potholes and large chunks of burning aircraft wreckage.

The scene can no longer be operated with chaos, that is the scene of doomsday!

The scene was completely silent. It wasn't that everyone died, but the explosion was so loud that even if they didn't die from the shock wave and debris, the huge explosion would make people fall into coma.

A few minutes later, a call came from the radio station in the navigation station, but no one responded...

…

The called air support did not arrive. When contacted again, it was learned that the air force base had been hit by a missile attack. All the aircraft were either scrapped or malfunctioning, and no support could be provided at all.

The combat command room of Dakhla base fell into a dead silence, and the air seemed to be frozen.

Faced with this situation, no one knows what to do.

The over-the-horizon strike from missiles is a crushing technological power that makes you unable to resist.

Now, let alone Dakhla, the General Headquarters of Western Sahara and the Commander-in-Chief of Moroccan Domestic Operations, Moulay Sidi Ben Youssef, are all numb.

Nearly half of Morocco's air force was gone in just a few minutes!

After receiving the news, Moulay Sidi bin Yusuf's expression changed, distorted, and eventually became hysterical. It was he who advocated mobilizing the army into Western Caesar. There was nothing wrong with this in itself. The mistake was that he misjudged the situation.

The U.S. officially supports Morocco, and those aircraft are supported by the U.S. military. Although the U.S. military only has a small amount of symbolic F5 equipment, it is also American equipment!

We are all Americans, and we are all our own people. What did you think, Sean, to suddenly kill you!!

Moulay Sidi bin Yusuf could not accept this result at all. Ballistic missiles were used. Is it possible to save this sub-base in Dakhla?

It goes without saying, pill!

The point is, it's thousands of miles away, and now he has no choice but to watch.

As for the nearly half of the air force left in his hand, he would never dare to send it out. If it were lost again, he would no longer have to covet a king, and his current position would not be preserved.

Dakhla and so on... It's time to make sacrifices for the great cause of Morocco.

…

There is nothing Morocco can do, and there is nothing the Western Sahara headquarters can do either. It is too late to mobilize troops. What they can do is to have the garrison along the fifth sand embankment gather towards the sub-base, try their best to organize defense, and wait for support.

It's cold. Everyone in the Dakhla Combat Command feels cold.

A protective umbrella is a protective umbrella. If you don't take action, it will be a missile. The people below will not receive the news and may still be angry. But the more they know, the more they know, the more unsure they feel.

What I'm most afraid of now is that an air raid siren suddenly sounds...

The news was suppressed. We should fight if we should. We calmed down and mobilized our forces. The tank troops that advanced 10 kilometers forward received orders to retreat 5 kilometers to maintain closer contact with the rear front.

Regardless of ancient or modern times, you cannot rely entirely on base defense, otherwise you will be directly suffocated at home by heavy artillery and other long-range attacks.

The wait was long and painful. More than an hour later, the Umbrella troops approached the Dakhla base, 50 kilometers away.

The team was divided into two parts. The tank troops rushed forward to clear the way, followed by various armored vehicles, vehicle-mounted missile troops, radar vehicles behind, and personnel carriers in the middle.

The first contact was with the Air Force.

One of the latest Apache armed helicopters took the lead and formed a helicopter combat formation with five AH-1 Cobra armed helicopters and rushed towards the enemy's defense line immediately.

At the same time, Dakhla was not to be outdone, and three AH-1s also took off and rushed out.

After the Cobra was equipped with the US military in 1967, the export volume was very large, and Morocco was the beneficiary country. It actually owned a lot, at least much more than Sean, but the layout was relatively scattered...

At a distance of 20 kilometers, Apache's radar discovered the whereabouts of the Moroccan Cobra in advance. Immediately, Sean's helicopter formation entered the battle formation, and the mounted AIM-9 air-to-air missiles entered the preparation stage.

The two sides approached head-on at high speed, and within the blink of an eye they were within 15 kilometers. The umbrella side did not say anything at first. After the lock was completed, six AIM-9 air-to-air missiles were launched.

The other side was not to be outdone. The missiles here had almost just finished launching. The other side also fired continuously, and 6 AIM-9 air-to-air missiles were also fired at them.

Sean: What a sin!

AIM-9C, Mach 2 speed, infrared guidance + semi-active radar guidance, this thing is simply fatal to helicopters!

Just after the missile was launched, both sides began to accelerate and maneuver in a wide range.

Especially on the protective umbrella side, six armed helicopters bloomed like blooming chrysanthemums, making large-scale horizontal or vertical movements in the air.

The moment before the AIM-9C approached, the infrared missile approach alarm on the helicopter quickly sounded the alarm. Then, the helicopter suddenly shot out a large number of infrared interference bombs from all directions, with long white tail fins, releasing huge amounts of light and heat in the air in a short period of time.

.

This is during the day. If it is night, the jamming bomb will be as dazzling as a flare.

The principle of the jamming bomb is to use the built-in mixture of magnesium powder, nitrocellulose and polytetrafluoroethylene to generate strong infrared radiation and trick the seeker of the infrared guided missile into deviating from the target.

At the same time, the pilot's eyes were fixed on the front, his expression was tense but his hands were motionless. At the last moment, he yanked the control stick. As if someone kicked him in the butt, the helicopter suddenly shot up diagonally.

past.

A missile passed diagonally from behind the butt of the helicopter. Only at this moment did the pilot exhale sharply.

A key data between armed helicopters and general helicopters is reflected here, climb rate!

The higher the climb rate, the greater the ability to avoid missiles.

The climb rate of the twin-engine AH-1W is 8.4 meters per second, the climb rate of the Apache reaches 12.8 meters per second, and the climb rate of the Black Hawk is only a pitiful 4.5 meters per second. The huge gap is evident.

.

In the first wave of attacks, all the protective umbrellas completed tactical evasion and were not shot down.

On the opposite side, two of the three AH-1s of the Moroccan Army fell to the ground with thick smoke, and only one managed to escape successfully. Upon seeing this, without saying a word, he turned around and ran away!

This is not to say that the Moroccan Army's AH-1 is a castrated version. The pressure faced by two air-to-air missiles at the same time is several times that of one. The difference is only a few tenths of a second. Once the missile is not interfered by the jamming bomb, then for those who are making evasive actions

Helicopters are deadly and difficult to avoid continuously.

The Moroccan army was able to complete the lock-on twice in a short period of time, and it was already the limit to launch two missiles. There was no chance for them to launch the third round. The AIM-9C that was shooting head-on was already in front of them!

Top speed of Mach 2, too fast!

Seeing the enemy plane running away, the Apache pilot pushed the control stick and chased after it. The co-pilot quickly completed the lock and fired at the AIM-9C with one round.

Behind him, five AH-1s also quickly caught up, but an order came from the communication equipment, "Look for opportunities to destroy enemy tanks!"

But in single combat, AH-1 is no match for AH-64, so there is no need for everyone to catch up together.

Of course, what's more important is speed. With the same model, they can't catch up.

In fact, when the enemy Cobra fled with all its strength, Apache could not catch up in a short time. In terms of maximum speed, the gap between the two sides was only a few dozen kilometers. Under the current battlefield situation, as long as it approached the Dakhla base, Apache

Qi didn't dare to really catch up.

The Stinger 2 in the hands of the Moroccan army is not vegetarian either!

This situation is more about driving away, preventing the other party from interfering with one's own helicopters and destroying enemy tanks.

Another jamming bomb, another large-scale maneuver, barely dodged a missile, and was pulled into some distance by the Apache.

Seeing that it was passing over the top of its own tank troops and unable to provide air support, the Moroccan AH-1 fled away.

The Dakhla base was close at hand, and while the AH-1 driver relaxed slightly, the five AH-1s whose protective umbrellas fell behind also completed locking on the ground tanks.

"Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh"

With tail flames spraying out, 5 Hellfire anti-tank missiles shot straight towards the Moroccan army's T-72 main station tank.

That’s right, the T-72 is a type of main battle tank designed and produced by the Soviet Union in the early 1970s, and was authorized to be produced by Warsaw Pact allies Poland and Czechoslovakia. It is the new signature tank of the Soviet Union, with a production volume of more than 25,000 units.

Morocco orders up to 150 vehicles!

Well, Rabbit swapped one from Romania.

Morocco receives military assistance from the United States and uses a large amount of American and French equipment, but this does not mean that it does not use Soviet-made equipment!

Lao Maozi supports Caesar, but that doesn’t mean he won’t sell weapons to Morocco.

Just like US ally Lao Sa uses Soviet-made equipment, on the Iran-Iraq battlefield, Lao Sa and YL also use a large number of Chinese-made equipment to fight against each other...

However, the T-72M/M1 export model had no resistance at all when facing the hellfire. After a "boom", it burst into flames and was completely paralyzed.

Run!!!!

The remaining 5 T-72s turned around and ran away without saying a word, but it was of no use whether they ran or not now!

After losing air superiority, it is inevitable that the tank troops will be targeted, and it will be useless for anyone to do so.

Modern warfare has always been about fighting for air superiority at the first opportunity!

In fact, there are big loopholes in the protective umbrella in this aspect, but it was previously covered up by the powerful anti-aircraft firepower of the warships.

Of course, Morocco's air power is still too weak.

After going around in a circle, all 10 T-72 main station tanks of the Moroccan army were scrapped. The helicopter formation led by Apache did not return immediately, but stayed 5 kilometers away to avoid close-range air defense weapons such as Stingers.

After hovering for half a circle, it aimed at the Dakhla base and started pouring firepower.

The 38×6 rockets cover the strike. It doesn’t matter how effective it is. What matters is the momentum!

What does it mean to be rich?

After all the shots were taken, everyone felt comfortable. The helicopter team picked up their pants and left without any hesitation.

The Moroccan army had no choice but to carry at least one AIM-9C on each helicopter of the team.

When going out, the AIM-9 and Hellfire were mounted in half.

It only took 10 minutes from the time the helicopters from both sides started exchanging fire until the umbrella helicopter team evacuated, and the situation on the battlefield was already clear.

With more advanced equipment and more powerful firepower, Umbrella Company has gained absolute dominance on the battlefield.

The helicopter returned, landed, and the supply truck that followed quickly rushed up. It quickly completed reloading and took off again, covering the battlefield again.

Air suppression, 20 US M60A1 tanks opened the way, followed by armored vehicles, radar vehicles and vehicle-mounted Beagle anti-aircraft rockets, and the vehicle-mounted M270 multiple rocket launcher system stopped 20 kilometers away.

The only good thing is that it has strong air power, otherwise the American M60A1 main battle tank in Sean's hands would be beaten to shit when it encounters the T-72.

There is a generational difference in technology!

There is a more advanced M1A1 main battle tank, but it was put into service last year and will not be used by private companies.

But now that all the tanks of the Moroccan army have been destroyed, the M60 under the umbrella has begun to roar again!

At least it can still be pushed against some bullshit armored vehicles and the like.

Well, that’s definitely not the reason for thinking there’s a helicopter daddy sitting in the sky!

The protective umbrella did not use the M270 multiple rocket launcher system for coverage strikes, it was completely useless!

After the tanks rushed in, Dakhla immediately chose to surrender.

Give it a try!

In the endless desert, there is not even a shelter. You can see clearly at a glance. A formation of armed helicopters hangs overhead. With the air power completely lost, you can't run. Why don't you surrender and wait for the artillery cover?

Dakhla does have a lot of permanent reinforced concrete fortifications, but they cannot withstand armor-piercing bullet strikes. This is not the case in desert combat. When the weapons are completely crushed, there is no power to fight back.

If it were the Imperial Cemetery, Kashmir or other places, Sean wouldn't even think about showing off his power.

Accepting the surrender, collecting the prisoners, and occupying the base, the entire process was completed by Dennis Abt, and Sean did not show up at all.

It’s just a sub-base, so it’s not qualified for Sean to come forward!

…

The news of the war could not be concealed at all, and it spread instantly to all the forces that had been paying attention to the situation here.

The Umbrella Company actually launched an attack, and it was a thunderous attack, wiping out nearly half of Morocco's air force and destroying a Western Saharan sub-base.

The visitor is not good!

The Western Sacrifice formation is also cooperating in the attack on the third sand embankment, mainly to act as a containment.

At the same time, the Western Saharan Front received a batch of speedboats and fast fishing boats sent by Sean. They were only equipped with rapid-fire guns and Sam-7 anti-aircraft missiles or Sam-14 for air defense. They were also dedicated to harassment.

Most of the time, they were close to the port or the edge of the city at night, using mortars for bombing, and then running away, never willing to fight.

The attack was launched from three directions, leaving Morocco in a panic.

The quickest response is the stock and futures markets.

Under Jordan Belfort's advance plan, as soon as the news of the war came out, he started to smash the stock market like crazy. However, the stocks of several companies mining in Western Sahara all plummeted. This time, not only the stockholders, but also the company's shareholders were cut off.

Extremely miserable.

Then came the Moroccan government, which held a press conference and strongly condemned Umbrella Company for not accepting employment from the anti-government organization PFLP. It was unjust to launch a war against Morocco and should not interfere in Morocco's internal affairs.

Of course, the rhetoric was no longer fierce, not even a strong protest.

On the other hand, I tried to contact Sean: How much the Caesars will give you, I will double it from Morocco!!

It’s just that those who came to make connections were blocked by Sean, and there was no chance!

Where is this?

Leaving the base and prisoners to the Western Saharan Formation, the troops just rested and had lunch and then continued to push towards the sub-base in the direction of the fourth sand embankment.

Laos can occupy Kuwait in 10 hours. Although we are not the third largest military power, we can't be too arrogant!

Either don't fight, or fight to win, and only then can we get greater benefits by bringing them to the negotiating table!

As soon as the fourth sand embankment sub-base received the news of the departure of the Umbrella Company, they retreated without saying a word. There was no way to fight!

We must concentrate our forces!

Morocco has deployed more than 80 tanks, 20 armed helicopters, 150 artillery pieces, 50,000 troops, and no less than 80,000 logistics personnel in the Western Sahara region.

The Moroccan army's general base in Western Sahara has concentrated 30,000 troops, 70 tanks, 20 armed helicopters, 100 artillery pieces, 30,000 troops, and laid out a 20-kilometer battlefield!

30,000 vs. 2,000, I have the advantage!!

When Sean got the news, he was speechless. Damn it, it's not easy to fight in a country at war.

Much more vicious than the Malays and others!

During this period, Morocco, Algeria, Libya, and Egypt in North Africa were all very violent!

With such a huge force, Protective Umbrella really can't chew this bone!

…

"What's the response strategy?" Sean asked from the temporary combat headquarters.

"The staff group has compiled information from all parties and is preparing to make some adjustments to subsequent tactics." Dennis Abbot showed Sean a map of Western Sahara, "Cisa has set up this line of defense very loosely, although it seems

It is impossible to concentrate our troops, but it is this loose arrangement that prevents our army from fully utilizing its high-tech and precision strike advantages, making it difficult to cause fatal damage to it at once."

"And once we get into a fight, the shortcomings of our army's insufficient strength will be exposed. There is no danger to defend in the desert. In this case, we are likely to be hit hard!"

"So, after discussion, the staff group re-formulated a plan to let the Western Saharan Front contain us. We made a large-scale transformation, entered the coastal area, and killed Laayoune along the Western Saharan coastal highway!" said

As Dennis Abbot pointed his finger at the map.

"Laayoune is the largest city in Western Sahara and the center of economic gravity. It is the most valuable place in Western Sahara. More importantly, it is at the seaside where we can fully utilize the greatest advantage of our protective umbrella and the power of our fleet!"

"We have nothing to fear when fighting within 50 kilometers of the coast, whether it's air or ground!"

"Once we enter our predetermined battlefield environment, the Moroccan army's strength advantage cannot be used at all!"

"Okay, do what you guys want!" Sean nodded and said, "Our main goal is not to eliminate how many people in the Moroccan army, but to build momentum and force them to compromise!"

"Understood!" Dennis Abbot nodded heavily.

Once the battle plan here is finalized, the Western Sacrifice formation on the other side can only cooperate.

There are only more than 5,000 troops on Caesar's side, but after receiving a large number of weapons from Sean, their combat effectiveness is not bad.

Although it is still much worse than Morocco, it is still okay to contain it.

At the same time, Umbrella began to agitate on a large scale during the night, heading west and heading straight to the Atlantic coast!

As the troops moved, Sean couldn't help but fall into deep thought. It was time to change clothes again!

Fighters, helicopters, surface-to-air missiles, Dong-1... we still need to work hard towards high technology.

If there are 10 fighter jets or dozens of helicopters at this time, Sean doesn’t care what line of defense he has, it’s just a push!!

…

Just when the protective umbrella was taking advantage of the night to move across a wide area, in the north of the Mediterranean Sea, the Gallic Chicken Congress was meeting overnight!

As a former French colony, Morocco is the back garden of Gallic chickens. It is the French, not the Americans, who have the greatest interests here!

The interests of Gallic Chicken cannot be violated!

Similarly, in the United States, many people in Congress are also dissatisfied with Sean's behavior. This is destroying the good image established by the United States in Morocco and is inconsistent with national policies. This behavior must be stopped.
