Dominate South Asia

The US Air Force has been using the most power to search for Iraq's Scud missiles, which are the most threatening weapons to them. However, the results were minimal. For a period of time, the Scud missile attacks stopped. The United States thought that under their powerful air force, Iraq realized that the Scud missiles could not continue to attack, so they had to stop.

They didn't know that these Scud missiles were the strength that Iraq deliberately preserved, and now, the Scud missiles finally started to counterattack!

When the countless hot flames rose, the reconnaissance satellites in outer space did not find them in the first time.

The Iraqis are hateful. Just when Bush announced a ground attack on Iraq, Iraq set all the Kuwaiti oil wells on fire!

The Creator is unfair. If the Soviets saw it, they would definitely hate it.

The Soviet oil wells are all under the frozen soil of the plateau. They need to be drilled to a depth of several thousand meters and then pumped up. The cost of mining is very high. Therefore, the United States uses oil as a weapon to lower the international oil price, and the Soviet Union's oil exports have become a losing business. In the Middle East, even if the price is reduced to a few dollars per barrel, they can still make money.

Because the oil fields here are all high-yield self-flowing crude oil. As long as you dig a hole in the ground, without any machinery, the oil inside can automatically spray out. It is simply the most wonderful gift given by God to the Arab world.

Now, these oil wells have been set on fire by Iraq!

The billowing smoke flew into the sky. These thick smoke and flames will bring great obstacles to the US Air Force in the air strike.

Originally, Americans were not afraid of night battles because the United States has advanced night vision equipment. For example, pilots who perform night attack missions. Many of them wear night vision goggles, which allow them to see the targets they need to attack clearly at night as during the day.

But now, as the oil wells are set on fire, there are flames and smoke everywhere. The night vision goggles cannot directly see the flames, and the pilots feel very uncomfortable.

Not only the pilots in the sky, but also the reconnaissance satellites in outer space. They also feel very uncomfortable. Where is the real target in these flames?

In this way, until the Scud missile was launched, left the ground, and entered the high altitude, the DSP reconnaissance satellite captured the flame in the last ten seconds of the rocket engine ignition.

Target found! The US Space Command Base was highly nervous. This batch of missiles launched exceeded twenty. Where were they going to attack? Riyadh? Or Dhahran? Or?

More than twenty seconds later. With the continuous tracking of the trajectory of the Scud missiles, after solving the calculation, they finally got the result that shocked them: the target of this batch of Scud missiles. It is the gathering place of our own troops at the border no more than 200 kilometers away!

The Scud missiles are going to attack the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment that is being supplied!

"Quick, issue an early warning and let those armored troops maneuver quickly!" General Schwarzkopf, who received the news, was also panicked and issued his own orders.

Damn, Scud missiles, when can they attack ground troops?

Because the guidance accuracy of this backward ballistic missile is very poor and the launch preparation time is long, when it starts to launch. The moving targets on the ground had long disappeared, so although the Scud missiles claimed to be able to hit moving targets, in fact, the Scuds launched in the Iran-Iraq War were all aimed at fixed ground targets.

Are you kidding! If you can't even hit a stationary target, how can you hit a moving target? Therefore, in order to guard against Scud missiles. The US military has increased the deployment of Patriot missile battalions to be responsible for air defense of key areas to prevent the tragedy of Dhahran from happening again.

But now, the Iraqis have changed their direction and stopped hitting fixed targets. They are attacking their own troops!

Less than 200 kilometers, only a few minutes. And because of the monitoring of Scud missiles, one minute was wasted. After General Schwarzkopf's decision, when the order was transmitted to the front-line troops, it was too late.

Transfer! Transfer immediately! At this time, the M1A1 tanks did not have the ability to be informatized. The main orders were still transmitted by radio. When the commander of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment loudly issued orders on the radio, a number of hot spots had already appeared in the distant sky.

The Scud missiles had already dived down from the sky. Due to the speed of several Mach, the warheads rubbed violently with the atmosphere, and it looked so clear.

At this time, Captain Mike forgot his fear. He looked up and looked at the few light spots falling like meteors in the dark night sky. His mind was full of doubts.

We had just arrived here twenty minutes ago and were attacked by the Iraqi Scud missiles. How did they know we were here?

Unfortunately, no one answered his question. The personnel of the refueling truck hurriedly pulled out the refueling pipe and drove the car frantically to leave. The tanks also closed the hatches and started the engines rumblingly.

Scud missiles want to attack this tank unit of ours? Dream on! If it was a Soviet multiple rocket launcher attack with a covering strike, it would be possible. But now, there are only a few Scud missiles. No matter how high the accuracy of the missiles is, their power is limited. In addition to the accuracy problem, those who can be bombed are all unlucky guys!

During the tens of seconds when the Scud missile flew overhead, the ground forces were moving quickly. However, due to panic, several tanks collided with each other, and another tank directly knocked over the tanker.

"Boom!" Before the warhead of the Scud missile reached the ground, it exploded in the air. A huge fireball instantly appeared in the sky, so bright and so hot.

Almost at this moment, Captain Mike suddenly realized that the Scud missiles of the Iraqis were equipped with fuel-air bombs! This is a weapon specially prepared for large-scale casualties!

In an area of ​​several square kilometers, the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment of the 18th Airborne Army of the United States suffered a devastating blow.

Fifteen of the more than twenty warheads accurately flew over the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, which was being resupplied. The explosion of each warhead brought death. The blazing flames burned all the oxygen in the surrounding air. Countless American soldiers who hid in tanks and tried to rely on the tanks' strong armor to resist the high-explosive warheads of ballistic missiles covered their necks in pain.

Even tanks with nuclear, biological and chemical protection need oxygen supply. Without oxygen, their lips turned purple and their eyeballs bulged out, and they died in a very tragic way.

At the same time, the explosion of these ballistic missiles also ignited the fuel in the refueling trucks. The fuel that was originally supplied to the armored forces to reach the front line has now become burning fuel. There are flames everywhere, and there is a tragic scene everywhere.

On the right wing of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, the French were also frightened. The 6th Light Armored Division of France originally planned to invade Kuwait with the Americans and show off. Now, seeing that the Iraqi ballistic missiles destroyed the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, the first reaction of the French was to leave here quickly and find a safe place!

Just now, a Scud missile that missed the target almost flew over the edge of the 6th Light Armored Division and fell into the desert next to it. Fortunately, the warhead did not explode!

And following the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment, the 24th Mechanized Infantry Division, which also belonged to the 18th Army, had another reaction. They wanted to avenge their comrades!

When General Schwarzkopf learned that the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment suffered heavy losses from the Scud missile attack, his face suddenly turned pale.

That was an armored regiment with thousands of troops! Damn Iraqis!

That night, Iraq fired more than a hundred Scud missiles, focusing on attacking the invading US Army. However, most of them were shot away, and only this unit was very accurate.

Before the attack began, it suffered such heavy losses. An armored regiment was about to be disbanded! The United States was very angry and the consequences were serious!

The attack was half an hour earlier than the scheduled time. At 3:30 in the morning, the general attack began!

Five armies rushed into southern Iraq and Kuwait at the same time. The 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment was attacked by ballistic missiles and suffered heavy losses. These troops were alerted and should not stay in the same place for more than 20 minutes. They must move forward, forward, and forward again!

In the sky, fighter planes were whistling and flying. Air supremacy had completely fallen into the hands of the joint forces. Their main task was to continue searching for Iraq's mobile Scud missiles and destroy them!

Since the beginning of the war, except for the Iraqi Air Force's initial several attempts to resist and being crushed by the coalition forces, the Iraqi Air Force has become passive and has not made any achievements. After Iraq's long-range radars and field radars were destroyed by the coalition forces, Iraq did not even have ground-to-air missiles. Therefore, now the entire Iraq, including the sky over Kuwait, belongs to the coalition forces.

Four F-16 fighters flew in the air, with six Maverick air-to-ground missiles mounted under the wings and two Sidewinder missiles for self-defense on the wingtips. Their mission is to patrol and search for Iraq's Scud missiles.

Maverick missiles are a low-cost and effective air-to-ground missile that can easily destroy tanks and even light warships. It is too easy to deal with several missile launchers. As long as the target can be found, it can be launched at any time!

From south to north, they are conducting aimless searches. There are almost more than a dozen such search formations of four aircraft at the same time.

They don't know that their doom is coming. (To be continued ~^~)
