Dominate South Asia

When the night came again, the 1st Armored Division, which was covered with desert camouflage nets on the edge of the Indian desert, finally removed the camouflage nets, and the steel behemoths showed their ferocious teeth.

Because of the slow movement of the enemy in the desert area, the headquarters had to modify the combat plan of the 2nd Armored Brigade, which led to the current armored brigade in a difficult battle. They were all attracting the Indian army to create opportunities for themselves!

Now, they are in the desert near Piwani, only two hours away from New Delhi!

Go forward, go forward, and go forward again!

Looking at the desert around, the division commander Ailaqi was excited: "Attention, we must advance to New Delhi within two hours! Let the Indians know that we can attack their capital at any time and destroy India at any time! Go forward, my brave armored soldiers!"

The tracks stirred the yellow sand, and flew more than one meter high behind. One tank after another drove out of the desert, and the rumbling sound of the engine was so pleasant to the ears.

After a whole day of recuperation, all the armored soldiers are now full of energy. New Delhi is right in front of us!

After driving for 20 minutes and leaving the desert, the vanguard of the 1st Armored Division ran over the Indian garrison in Piwani with almost no effort. All the barracks were destroyed and all the Indian soldiers were crushed into meat paste.

Then, they continued to advance, driving on the dirt roads in the countryside and even directly in the paddy fields. The torrent of steel advanced rapidly towards New Delhi.

An hour later, the leading armored brigade could already see the New Delhi Air Force Base.

This is a dual-use air force base, where the Indian Air Force Headquarters and the Western Air Force Command are located, including the 3rd Air Regiment's 41st Flight Squadron Do228 transport aircraft and BAe748 transport aircraft, as well as the Aviation Emergency Reserve Flight Squadron An-32 transport aircraft and Il-76MD transport aircraft. There are also B707 passenger planes and helicopters.

In the north is the air force base with several large runways, while in the south are civil aviation facilities. New Delhi's international airport is here, which has a longer runway.

At this time, more than a dozen large transport planes were slowly landing from one end of these runways. Under the long wings, four Kuznetsov HK-12MA turboprop engines, each of which can burst out 15,000 shaft horsepower, drive a pair of four-blade coaxial counter-rotating propellers with a diameter of 6.4 meters, the front landing gear is double wheels, and each main landing gear is three sets of six wheels, all of which have been lowered and are about to touch the runway.

The tail is not the common single tail of transport aircraft. Instead, there is a vertical tail on each side, connected to the horizontal tail, and the rear fuselage is very flat. You can see that there is a whole cabin door at the back.

"Squeak." The main landing gear touched the ground, the strong hydraulic rod began to buffer, the wheels continued to slide forward, and then the front landing gear also touched the ground.

The propeller began to reverse, providing forward thrust, pushing the transport aircraft to slow down rapidly. This is the Soviet Union's long-range heavy military transport aircraft, the An-22 transport aircraft. It is the largest turboprop aircraft ever built in human history. The cargo hold has a volume of 640 cubic meters and can carry surface-to-air missiles, rocket launchers, missile transporters, tanks, cars, etc. At the same time, behind the cockpit, there is a cabin separated from the main cargo hold that can accommodate nearly 30 passengers.

This is the pride of the Soviet aviation industry! Although the Il-76 has begun to be used. However, this transport aircraft still plays an important role. When invading Afghanistan, the main transport aircraft of the Soviet Union was still the An-22. And until now, this transport aircraft is still the only transport aircraft in the Soviet Union that can transport equipment such as "Scud" missiles, rocket launchers, and missile transporters.

When the transport aircraft stopped. The tail hatch slowly opened, exposing the interior of the cabin. A large 4-axle vehicle has been started inside.

"Boom, boom." A puff of black smoke came out of the engine. A Soviet man was operating the vehicle and slowly drove down from the cabin. The huge off-road tires represented the savagery and toughness, ruggedness and strength from the Soviet Union.

Scud missiles! The Indians waiting to receive them were outside the transport plane, watching the missile vehicle slowly drive down, their eyes full of excitement.

With these missiles, all Pakistani aircraft will no longer be a threat, and those most ferocious Tomcats will also become dead cats!

The Scud missile launcher pressed the door panel of the tail cabin and drove out. The Soviets inside waved to the Indians on the ground.

"Boom!" At this moment, suddenly, a roar came from a distance.

With the roar, a triple-mounted missile launcher in an air defense position on the periphery was destroyed.

What? Did the Pakistani Air Force launch a sneak attack? There was no air defense alarm, and no roar of the plane was heard?

"Boom!" Another explosion, a machine gun bunker has been destroyed.

With roar after roar, the outer defenses were blown away.

All the Indians became nervous. Oh no, this is the ground troops, the tanks are attacking!

You can feel the vibration of the ground and see the fire coming out of the gun muzzle in the distance. It is obviously the ground troops.

Who are they? Are they Pakistanis? Weren't they defeated by their own side?

No one answered their questions. What greeted them was only the fire of tank guns and 120mm grenades, which destroyed the fortifications one by one. Then, the tracks had already rolled over.

Burkhari's eyes were fixed on the sight. He could see everything around him clearly from the night vision goggles. His armored brigade was ordered to take down the air force base here. At the same time, this was also the only paramilitary force. The rest of the armored forces went straight to New Delhi.

His tanks had destroyed six or seven military targets and had already driven onto the runway. When he saw the big guy on the runway, Burkhari suddenly became so excited that he was drooling.

What is that? A large four-axle off-road vehicle with a long body and a thick cockpit at the front. It was a Soviet vehicle at first glance. What is it for? You can guess with your toes that it is a ballistic missile launcher!

I didn't expect that the Soviets would dare to secretly sell this thing to India!

"Block it!" Burkhari ordered on the radio.

Several tanks drove up and surrounded the launcher that was preparing to escape. The Soviet man in the car saw that he could not drive the launcher away, so he jumped down and tried to escape. The tank's machine gun had already fired a string of bullets beside him.

The Soviet man had to raise his hands.

At this moment, the propeller of the transport plane accelerated, and when the tail hatch slowly closed, the transport plane was about to accelerate. It seemed that it wanted to escape!

It's not that easy to run!

"Grenade, hit the runway in front!" Burkhari shouted.

"Boom, boom!" Flames came out of the muzzles of the two tanks, and two bright lights appeared three hundred meters in front of the transport plane. Concrete flew everywhere, and a big pit was blown out.

The transport plane had to brake urgently and stopped just in front of the big pit. Although it can take off and land at the front-line simple airport, no matter how simple it is, it is definitely impossible to take off by force on a runway with a big pit.

The Pakistani soldiers on the M113 infantry fighting vehicle quickly got off and surrounded the plane.

The same thing happened on several other runways. Only one An-22 took off with the Scud missile launcher that it had not yet unloaded. The rest were caught red-handed.

Burkhari got off the tank and strode towards the missile vehicle. He jumped on it and looked at the top of the missile vehicle. A missile more than ten meters long was just there. The Russian logo on it was R-300 Elbrus!

This sudden attack on New Delhi Airport also captured a big guy. Needless to say, these must have been provided to India by the Soviet Union in order to attack its own air base. The Soviet Union did not launch it itself, but let India launch it. This was enough to hurt!

At this time, cheers of victory came from the command tower. The Indian Air Force personnel who stayed behind surrendered there. The entire New Delhi Air Force Base has fallen into the hands of Pakistan!

The Air Force is different from the Army. They have never fought face to face. Now, when more than a dozen tanks surrounded them and the black gun barrels were facing them, if they did not surrender, they would only be killed.

So, they had no choice.

Moreover, these were all transport squadrons, belonging to the logistics department, and they had no bloodiness against the enemy.

An armored brigade of Pakistan's armored division captured the New Delhi Air Force Base. At the same time, the rest of the troops of the entire armored division were advancing rapidly towards New Delhi.

New Delhi was in chaos.

"Where did this damn force come from?" General Meta asked, "Aren't the Pakistanis surrounded by us?"

"Is it Pakistan's rapid reaction force? They took a transport plane to our airport and then controlled our airport?" said another staff officer.

Back then, in the Kashmir Valley, Pakistan did this, taking a transport plane, forcibly landing at the airport, and then controlling the airport.

If this is the case, it is not terrible. After all, Pakistan has limited transport planes, and they can't transport heavy equipment at the same time. Only a few hundred infantry can be eliminated by their own side calmly.

Back then in Srinagar, Pakistan just snatched its own tanks and continued to attack. They didn't have heavy equipment.

There was very little information. They only knew that the airport was controlled by Pakistan. They had no idea how it was controlled and how many Pakistanis were there.

Everyone was panicking. They knew how weak the military force in New Delhi was. (To be continued ~^~)
