Chapter 053, Defection
() Although Canglong's words are vulgar, such words are humorous when they come out of the mouths of big people, and they also moderately adjust the atmosphere on the rooftop, and the reporters also find that this calm prophet is not just a god who can deceive the people
In the base, the shrimp looked at the bright spots on the radar screen, General Badr and the snow leopard also came, and the snow leopard said with a smile: "The great prophet is now standing on the top of the provincial building with all the reporters and officials of Basra, the provincial zhèng fǔ is definitely the target of the US military's key bombing, you have to take it easy, miss a plane to come in, and the end is to be served by a pot."
"I'm really looking for trouble," he said, "Attention to the missile positions, now the life and death of the whole Basra are in our hands, I have just received the news, the Great Prophet has gathered in the province with all the officials and people, and it will be the target of the US military's bombing, if we miss a plane and enter the airspace of Basra, the consequence is that the whole Basra loses the Prophet and falls into war again."
Saying that, the shrimp repeated again, for a while, the fear in the hearts of the missile soldiers at the ten missile positions suddenly disappeared, and at the moment when the air defense jǐng was sounded, in fact, they were all trembling, after all, this was the first time that cāo used this kind of weapon, and the American planes had already caused them a lot of psychological pressure
"Defend the Prophet, Defend Basra," the excited voices of the missilemen were heard on the radio
Hearing this, Xiami was a little relieved, although there were Russian experts and technicians of the Second Artillery Corps at every missile position, but in this kind of actual combat environment, everyone would have psychological pressure, but at this time, faith is undoubtedly the best medicine to overcome fear
"The Prophet is with us, and Allah is with us," Shrimp Mi was rarely excited, and after saying this, his face returned to coldness
"You're getting more and more powerful," Snow Leopard patted him on the shoulder
Shrimp held back his eyes and ignored him, but stared at the radar screen, everyone nervously watched as the red dots approached the Basra territory, the heartbeat began to accelerate, the blood seemed to be boiling, and the breathing began to rapid
The technician suddenly said: "Entering the optimal attack distance, you can now fire shè missiles"
Shrimp picked up the radio and calmly said: "All missile positions, pay attention to the enemy planes have entered the optimal attack distance, turn on all radar locking systems, and you only have twenty seconds to prepare."
Before that, in order to imitate the detection of the US military's radar system, almost all the missile vehicles and radar vehicles at the missile positions had turned off their signals to imitate the detection
At the same time as the shrimp gave the order, they quickly activated the system according to their usual training, and a missile defense network was quickly spread over Basra
"Position 1 is ready to request a shè"
"Position 2 is ready to request a shè"
"Position 3 is ready to ask for a shè"
"Hair" shrimp is about to give the order to send shè
Suddenly, the technician looked at the radar screen with a surprised expression: "Wait you guys look at this"
Shrimp looked at the radar screen with a strange expression, only to find that one of the nine planes had actually returned, and it was the only one
"What's going on" everyone looked strange
The technicians didn't understand it, but soon they noticed that the F16C had not returned, but had circled behind the Predator drone, and something even more surprising happened to them
Ten kilometers from Basra's airspace, an F16C-guided fleet is approaching Basra, and as the only fighter pilot of the Iraqi Air Force after the establishment of the new zhèng fǔ, Aziz has experienced many wars, and he was a pilot in the Iraqi Air Force during the Saddam period
It's just that during Saddam's time, the treatment of the air force did not seem to be very good, and the suspicious Saddam Hussein was always worried that the air force would defect, so Aziz and his fellow pilots almost never dispatched a single fighter plane to confront the air force of the US-British coalition when the US-British coalition invaded Iraq, and the entire Iraqi air force did not dispatch once
Some people say that it was the air force that abandoned Saddam, but Aziz and his colleagues knew very well that it was Saddam Hussein who abandoned the air force, from the Gulf War to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait to the Iran-Iraq war, and the Iraqi air force at that time was purged many times, and even if the Iraqi air force made outstanding contributions in the Iran-Iraq war, it was not enough for Saddam to reassure them, and as soon as the war ended, many high-ranking generals of the air force who had made meritorious contributions were dismissed, and even the ace pilot who shot down many Iranian planes was tried and finally shot
Thinking back on this past, Aziz was very emotional: after the end of the Iraq War, Aziz surrendered to the U.S. military and joined the newly formed Iraqi Air Force
The Americans have no intention of supporting the recovery of the Iraqi Air Force at all, and since they occupied it, the planes piloted by Aziz and his partners are not as good as the old fighters of the Iraqi Air Force before, and they finally got two of them, but they have been divided into many no-fly zones by the US military
The good times didn't last long, and the other one was really divided into Basra, and Aziz, who didn't have a wingman, knew very well that an F16C could not form a real combat force at all, nor could it pose any threat to the US military, although the Americans said that this was for them to use for training, so there was no need for wingmen
But these bullshit and perfunctory words can't be perfunctory, these pilots, the Americans, under the guise of supporting the Iraqi security forces, while balancing them, are deeply afraid that they have the strength to confront the US military
After receiving the order to attack Basra, Aziz completely gave up on the US military, which was obviously to let him test the waters, a F16C without wingmen went to Basra with seven or eight drones, which was obviously for him to be a decoy, after all, Basra had two Jilla, and created a miracle of shooting down one F16C
Therefore, Aziz plans to enter Basra's airspace this time, drop the bomb and run to kill it, and will not do any fighting with the two J-7Ms in Basra
"Base, I'm Osprey, I've arrived at the predetermined location and I'm about to attack," Aziz opened the U.S. military's communication code and started talking to the base
"The base receives the osprey, you can start the attack, your mission has been changed, eliminate the two annihilators in the airspace of Basra, do you understand, destroy the two annihilators, and create favorable conditions for the subsequent bombardment," the commander's voice came from the base
At that time, Aziz's face was like ashes, all his plans were shattered, and the Americans really didn't want him to go back
"Osprey understands," Aziz said in a deep voice, then turned off the radio, this time he was going to fight to the death, "Since you let me die, then I won't let you have a good time."
Aziz pulled the lever and then began to turn to fly away from the intended channel and climb to the best attack position, but the target he was going to attack was not the target of Basra, but the predator drones, aiming the weapon system at the drone cannon behind it, locking on to one of the drones, after Aziz pressed the red sè button on the lever and carried out the first round of speed shè
Through the positioning system, Natasha saw a scene that surprised them, only to see Aziz on the radar screen detach from the intended course and launch an attack on the Predator drone, and the reason for this judgment was that one of the drones suddenly broke away from the voyage and fell
At the same time, two other planes were also shot down, and both Natasha and her Air Force staff raised a bad omen, and Aziz defected
"Change the tactical target of the drone to eliminate the osprey," said Natasha, and the Air Force staff officer immediately gave the order
And the commander of the Iraqi Air Force, who was standing on the side, also looked at him coldly, Natasha looked at him coldly, and said sarcastically: "This is your Iraqi Air Force, let the first, second, and third detachments attack to take over the drone mission, no matter what, to eliminate this traitor."
The commander wanted to explain something, but said nothing, apparently the situation was clear, and he knew the reasons for Aziz's defection
At the same time, the shrimp in the Basra base also saw this scene, and they were all shocked, and the two Predator drones were shot down first, and then the other third was also hit and fell after a few seconds of dogfighting
On the radar screen, 16C began to attack the fourth Predator drone, but the Predators of the other detachment reacted and headed towards F16C, apparently feeling threatened, and 16C began to fly towards Basra airspace instead of grappling
"What's going on, your own people beat your own people," Snow Leopard looked puzzled
"This should be a mutiny," at this moment, Bai Wuchang suddenly walked over, "The U.S. military knows very well how many planes we have, so let this Iraqi pilot fly the F16C to fight us, in fact, it is not strange to send us to death, and it is not strange to mutiny in the middle of the way"
Although Bai Wuchang's explanation made a lot of sense, they didn't dare to believe it, after all, this was a war, and once there was any conspiracy, they couldn't afford to lose
But at this moment, the radar's reaction again made them understand what three detachments of F16 fighters took off from Baghdad Air Base, apparently coming this way
"The movements of the U.S. military are already clear, this Iraqi pilot has defected," Bai Wuchang said, "if you can't make a decision as soon as possible, contact the head quickly"
Shrimp nodded and contacted Canglong, standing on the provincial building, Canglong was wondering why the air raid had not yet started and received the news
"Mutiny," Canglong asked in a whisper
"Yes, it's just possible"
Canglong looked puzzled, Basra did not show enough arms, this Iraqi pilot mutiny, it was indeed a bit bizarre, but after Xiami explained, Canglong understood, and then gave an order: "Let Bai Wuchang take off for aerial identification"
"Yes" After getting Canglong's order, Xiami was about to convey it, but Bai Wuchang had disappeared
Snow Leopard said: "He has already gone to the hangar, what kind of work have these Iraqi pilots been forced to mutiny?"
Shrimp nodded and asked the technician to try to contact the Iraqi pilot, and then ordered the missile unit to stand by
