The Princes Air Base in the south of the Saudi capital, Riyadh, is the largest air base in the Kingdom, and the design standards seriously exceed the needs of its use. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info However, today's Prince Air Base is full of "planes".

The command center of the coalition forces to launch Operation Desert Storm is at the Prince Air Base, which is also the location of Schwarzkopf, which can be said to be the central organ of the coalition command.

After the results of the battle in the early morning were fed back to the command center, Schwarzkopf overrode public opinion and recruited the coalition air forces that were already on the way, temporarily abandoning the follow-up attack plan against Iraq.

Not because the coalition operational plan was flawed by not blowing up telecommunications buildings and early warning radar stations, but because the coalition forces were not ready to suffer heavy casualties.

The 1,700 fighters of the coalition forces, let alone attacking Iraq, even if they were attacking the current Soviet Union cluster in Europe, did not dare to say that they would fall into disadvantage.

It's just that if the confrontation is against the Soviet Union, as long as the war is won, it will be sacrificed 100,000 or 200,000 soldiers, and it is not unbearable.

But if the opponent is Iraq, then the question of how much casualties should be limited is a delicate political question.

Now that the chicken-stealing strategy that wants to achieve the "perfect achievement" has been recognized, there is no need to think about passing the test without injury, and Schwarzkopf needs to reconsider the strategy.

And in the command center, in the face of the sudden defeat, the heads of all aspects of the coalition forces have long been arguing.

"I want to know what's going on in Baghdad!" Lieutenant General Horner, the commander-in-chief of the Air Force, glared angrily, and his eyes could almost scorch William Webster, the head of intelligence and the director of the CIA.

This is not to blame him, in fact, the entire US Air Force, and even all the air force agencies around the world, are already on the verge of blowing up.

What? The Americans really have a secret weapon!

What? America's secret weapon capable of radar stealth?

What? The Americans' secret weapon was poked down by Iraq?

How did the Iraqis do it?

The secret weapon of the US military, uh, is it papier-mâché?

Or is Iraq so strong?

So Iran, which can fight with Iraq for ten years, depends on how much × the cattle are!

And for the US Air Force, the problem is even more acute. Judging from the follow-up intelligence feedback, Iraq is fully prepared for the first offensive of the US military.

The entire communications building was covered with a black damp cloth, and the buildings in key areas were purposefully altered and camouflaged.

If these abnormal actions can be detected in time, the Air Force will not agree to risk the F117 under any circumstances.

Tate smashed the sign.

The crash of F117 will inevitably lead to a series of changes in the top echelons of the Air Force, and even deal a serious blow to the morale of the air force pilots of the entire coalition forces.

Even the most advanced secret weapon of the US military has been shot down, so shouldn't other planes enter Iraq's airspace and think about it even more?

And the unexpected initial battle sinking of the stealth fighter will definitely have a great impact on the follow-up plan of the fourth-generation aircraft. The biggest enemy of the US military will definitely not give up this rare opportunity.

The source of all this, in Horner's view, is the result of a gross negligence in intelligence.

William Webster, on the other hand, was bitter and bitter that the Iraqi operation was completely unexpected by intelligence analysts, and the change of operational deployment began only a day or two before the battle, and most of the preparations were completed at night.

Judging from the way of preparation, it is also seriously inconsistent with Saddam's knowledge structure. I have studied Saddam Hussein for a long time, and I still have this basic judgment ability.

Saddam's education, his style of war command over the years, and even his personality and psychological analysis did not support him in making such a thorough defensive plan.

What's more, many of Saddam's tactical defenses were so targeted that even William himself wondered if there were a large number of Iraqi spies within the US military?

Huh, wait, how is this feeling so familiar......

William Webster thought about it for a long time, but he didn't remember how this familiar feeling came about, so he had to put it aside for the time being.

From the point of view of logic and rational analysis, the intelligence analysts of the CIA gave him a reason that seemed slightly unreliable.

"William, do you have any information on the deployment of the CIA in Iraq?"

Faced with Schwarzkopf's inquiry, William Webster could not help but provide an acceptable answer, otherwise the CIA's budget for the next year would be in trouble.

As President Bush's confidant, William Webster is looking forward to continuing his role as CIA director for the next four years.

"Yes, our intelligence has made some discoveries. ”

William Webster said: "Since the beginning of the war, our intelligence agents in Baghdad have reacted that Saddam Hussein has never been seen in public. And before the start of the war, the changes in the strategic deployment of the Iraqi army were not at all Saddam's style. Based on the analysis of various aspects of intelligence, we can only conclude that after the adoption of the United Nations resolution two days ago, some unexpected situation is likely to occur in Iraq. For example......

"For example, what?"

"For example, it could be a coup d'état. Our intelligence officers have put forward the idea that there will be a group of middle- and high-ranking officers in the Iraqi army who are dissatisfied with Saddam's act of dragging Iraq into the war and launch a coup d'état?"

Schwarzkopf frowned and asked, "Is this a coup d'état that we didn't realize?"

William replied a little reluctantly, but still nodded, "Yes...... It's not impossible. ”

"Well, that's an explanation. ”

Schwarzkopf nodded helplessly.

Saddam Hussein was placed under house arrest in a coup d'état? This conclusion is open enough to open up the brain hole haha.

Aside from a wry smile in his heart, Schwarzkopf didn't know what expression he should use now.

As far as the top of Iraq, which was originally infiltrated into a sieve, can carry out a coup d'état without being discovered by the Americans, can these so-called young mid-level officers fall from the sky?

Air Force Commander-in-Chief Horner obviously didn't quite believe the news either, but my F117 was dropped, so what's the use of saying this! The next battle plan must convince Schwarzkopf to adopt conservative tactics. Otherwise, we will kick the Iraqi air defense network, and it will drain the blood of the coalition air force!

As soon as Horner wanted to speak, William Webster, who had just picked up a phone call, suddenly widened his eyes, pointed to the large-screen TV in the command center again and again, and said anxiously: "Please turn on the TV, Cairo TV!

Schwarzkopf nodded, and the orderly hurriedly went over and turned on the TV and tuned to Cairo TV.

Cairo Television is the equivalent of Egypt's CCTV and has extensive influence in today's Arab world, and the command center of the US military has a special line to connect the major news television stations.

After all, in today's world, it is nothing new for journalists to run faster than reconnaissance planes.

Well, among them, the Xiangjiang reporters, in particular, can be called the reconnaissance planes of the reporters -- they can run faster than anyone else! But they just have no attack power......

On television, a news broadcast was being made on Cairo TV.

And Lieutenant General Horner, who was just about to speak, could tell at a glance what was being broadcast on the TV.

"Bastard, how dare they do this!" Horner jumped to his feet: "Egypt is leaking our military secrets! Damn it, these camels in the desert!"

The commanders of the Air Force and Navy looked sideways at Horner and shook their heads. Egypt can't be blamed for this, and if you have the ability, don't let anyone shoot down your own plane. Now that it has fallen into the hands of Saddam, it is only a matter of time before it circulates it.

The United States' secretive work on F117 for more than a decade has been exhausted. It is conceivable that the underground arms traffickers of all countries in the world must have been on their way to Baghdad at this time. Although it is still a war zone, the benefits of F117 fragments are enough to make them desperate.

On television, Cairo TV is broadcasting first-hand accounts of the beginning of the war in Iraq.

The wreckage of F117 that crashed to the ground is clearly visible, especially the black coating, the strange large bevel shape, and the jagged edges. With the hints of these pictures, professionals can see its principles and design ideas with a little research.

It can even be said that from this moment on, the United States' understanding of stealth aircraft is already at the same level as that of other countries in the world.

The presenter finished introducing the wreckage of the F117 and Apache, and then played the situation of the US pilots, the special forces captured servicemen in Baghdad and the raid on the radar station.

It can be seen from the TV that these people have not been abused, and their emotional and physical conditions are still stable, although they all seem to be depressed.

At the end of the news, it shows the hostages held by Saddam Hussein in Kuwait and the grief-stricken faces of the families of the civilians killed and injured after the attack on Baghdad. Of course, the terrain-changing buildings that Jamal ordered to be blown up on TV were also pressed on the heads of the coalition forces......

War has created too much suffering in the Middle East. Not to mention the thoughts of the generals in the coalition command, after the news broadcast on Cairo television, the mood of the people in the Arab world was really very mixed.

No one could have imagined that Saddam Hussein would be able to shoot down the most advanced secret weapon of the US military, and this is really a matter of pride for the Arab nation, which has suffered defeat in several Middle East wars.

However, looking at the devastation of Baghdad, the Arab people cannot help but feel some sympathy.

Just like the mainland's strong military strength, isn't it also a very honorable thing for many Baodao people?

Iraq won the victory over the coalition forces, and the Arab world suddenly felt close to Iraq.

After all, the Arab world has suffered too much and for too long, and it is desperate for some psychological comfort. In fact, China had this state of affairs in the 80s and 90s, but our psychological comfort did not come from the war, but from betting on the Asian Games, the Olympics and the World Cup.
