At this moment, Colonel Knox is like a crazy gambler, after losing all his chips, he will press all his only net worth, ready to turn it over, which is similar to the usual cool-headed, rigorous and wise Colonel Knox, is he really crazy because of this painful defeat?

The answer is naturally no, Colonel Knox is not a stupid person, seeing that his own fleet has suffered such heavy losses, where do he not know that everything that the Iraqi army did before was a trap to invite you into the urn, especially the set of radar concealed and continuous positioning tactics, it is obvious that the Iraqi air defense unit used radar to deliberately create an illusion, in order to paralyze the US troops under his command, and then launch a fatal blow after they launched a conventional attack in the air.

Thinking of this, Colonel Knox was very annoyed, and was annoyed that he had not seen through the Iraqi army's tricks in time, but after a short period of chagrin, he was surprisingly angry, angry that the Iraqi air defense forces had slaughtered the noble American pilots by such despicable means, and that such a bad act was simply unbearable;

So Knox was really enraged, so much so that he was almost like a beast going crazy, he wanted to fight back, he wanted revenge, he wanted to make the Iraqis pay for their blood debts, of course, just having the seeds of hatred and a cold-blooded heart could not make him fulfill his wish for revenge, after all, on the battlefield of real swords and guns, it is always the strength that is seen, not the mood!

However, does the seriously damaged Third Tactical Attack Group still have such strength? The answer is naturally yes; although the "Killer Whale" detachment responsible for escorting the convoy was completely wiped out, and although two-thirds of the strength of the "Walrus" detachment responsible for ground attacks was wiped out, the Third Tactical Attack Group still has sufficient combat capability to deal with the ground air defense system.

Not to mention the comprehensive electronic warfare capability of the E-2 "Hawkeye" early warning aircraft, which is responsible for overall command and guidance, the 10 AN/ALQ-99 tactical jamming pods carried by the two EA-6B planes alone can be called world-class, and as long as the spectrum signal of any radar in the world is caught by it, there is nothing that cannot be interfered with.

In addition, the two F-18A "Hornet" fighter-attack planes left over by the "Walrus" detachment are not ordinary goods, they are sharp weapons that Knox has carefully prepared for attacking the Baghdad air defense circle, and the AGM-88 "Hamm" anti-radiation missiles carried by each fighter are even the best in this type of equipment in the US military, and even the improved "Mozu" anti-radiation missiles cannot fully compete with them.

Originally, Colonel Knox appropriately made a trump card to use this invisible sword to be used in the well-defended air defense circle of the Iraqi capital, and because of this, he was not willing to use it in the previous attack operation, and only let the EA-6B electronic warfare plane carry the "Mozu" anti-radiation missile with slightly inferior performance to suppress the Iraqi army's air defense;

The Iraqis were so cunning that they dodged the fatal blow with despicable means, but it was good because their hidden radar was completely exposed in the counterattack, so that they could carry out targeted electronic suppression, and then use the unsheathed sword to decapitate the enemy..........

After hearing Knox's idea, the other US officers and men in the cabin of the E-2 AWACS plane were very shocked at first, and they only felt that the boss was really crazy, but after calming down, they found that Knox's adventure was not a reckless act of courage and unscrupulousness, but a surprise counterattack.

In the eyes of ordinary people, after suffering heavy losses from the destruction of the main force, even if the troops at hand have combat effectiveness, they will choose to avoid the enemy's edge and retreat, since the vast majority of the US military retains such an idea, then the Iraqis will definitely think so.

It is precisely because of this that the Iraqis who have achieved a major victory will inevitably have a short period of relaxation, where would they have thought that the US military would launch a deadly assault with the remnants of the army, laxity makes people happy, but it will make people irreversible, the Iraqis took advantage of this before, and made the US military pay a heavy price, now the US military can not do the opposite, and it can also make the Iraqis go to hell!

The US officers and men who can sit in the cockpit of the E-2 "Hawkeye" early warning plane are all the elite of the elite of the US Naval Air Force, and even the smallest noncommissioned officers have served for more than eight years, and they are synonymous with calmness, resoluteness, tenacity, and rich experience..........

"This decision may seem crazy in the eyes of some people, but I would say, since we are crazy, let's go crazy because ....... We have crazy capital!"

"That's right, sir, let's go completely insane!"

"Kill the Iraqis to the ground!"

"Let our 'Hamm' tear them apart completely.........."

After understanding Colonel Knox's true intentions, the US officers and men in the cabin once again burned with infinite fighting spirit, and the angry and bloodthirsty roar shook the entire cabin to a buzzing sound, and Knox saw that the military heart was available, so he nodded with satisfaction, and immediately waved his hand, and in an instant, the entire E-2 early warning plane turned into a state of imminent battle again, and Colonel Knox also picked up the command intercom at this moment, his eyes were sharp, and he said with murderous intent:

"'Shoot fish', 'Walrus', it's time to execute the 'Damocles' plan..........."

Major Hans and Lieutenant Colonel Dreyford were also stunned when they heard Colonel Knox's true intentions on the airborne radio, but they quickly responded as soon as they figured out the joints, and immediately commanded their subordinate detachments to begin a mixed formation and implement a joint anti-radiation strike group;

The so-called "Damocles" plan is carried out on the basis of this mixed formation, with early warning aircraft as command platforms, electronic warfare planes as cover, advanced ground attack planes as penetration weapons, and first-class anti-radiation missiles as the means of attack.

The combination of these advanced elements will form an extremely powerful air attack strike system, just like a sword of Damocles hanging over the enemy's head, as long as it is unsheathed, it will be like a bloody oar.........

The entire formation proceeded very quickly, and in less than three minutes the two detachments were integrated, and the command of the new formation was naturally handed over to Colonel Knox for personal command; at this moment, the E-2 early warning plane he was flying on had already arrived 48 kilometers southwest of Nahab, and only at this distance could the directional jamming equipment on the E-2 early warning plane be able to give full play to its effectiveness, and it would complement each other even more when coordinated with the EA-6B.........

Seeing that everything was in order, Colonel Knox did not say anything more, and directly issued an offensive order, and the radar spectrum signals used by the Iraqi army's counterattack, which had been detected by EA-6B, were quickly converted into directional jamming radio waves by the electronic jamming equipment carried by EA-6B and E-2, and in an instant, the vast and complex interference was overwhelmingly struck at the "Falcon" ground-to-air missile battalion.

In an instant, the display screen of the electronic equipment belonging to the "Falcon" ground-to-air missile battalion was like a wild horse on the loose, beating violently, and the radio communication was also creaking and ringing, and he could not even hear a complete sentence clearly.

It is also impossible, according to the information previously obtained, the nearest "wild weasel" electronic attack formation to Nahab is also more than 400 kilometers, and it will take at least 40 minutes to get here, calculate the time, even if the "wild weasel" electronic attack formation is on a rocket, it is impossible to arrive so quickly, at least it will give itself about 8 minutes to evacuate, but now.........

Colonel Mohammed was a little dazed, yes, he was indeed preparing to evacuate, and this was also part of the previous plan, the "Falcon" surface-to-air missile battalion is very advanced in equipment and technology, and its combat effectiveness is also extremely strong, but it cannot change the huge gap between Iraq and the US military, and the basic situation of the enemy's strength and weakness cannot be changed at all.

It is precisely because of this that if you want to confront such a behemoth as the US military, you must not fight to the death, but use a way to deal with it, which can be summed up in Lu Jiadong's words, that is, air defense guerrilla warfare, that is, with the super mobile capability of the "Falcon" ground-to-air missile battalion, relying on the vast inland depth of Iraq, supplemented by effective covert methods, to engage in a cat-and-mouse confrontation with the powerful US military;

This set of air defense combat ideas was used by China in territorial air defense operations in the 50s and 60s, and the results achieved shocked the world, and the "heroic battalion" of China's surface-to-air missiles responsible for carrying out this combat mission at that time was still equipped with liquid-fueled Soviet-made SAM-2 surface-to-air missiles.

Neither mobility nor reaction speed can be compared with the "Falcon" air defense missile system, but China is able to use advanced strategy and tactics to achieve results that are difficult for others to achieve, and it is conceivable that the more technologically advanced "Falcon" air defense missile system will perform even better, so Colonel Mohammed can be said to have spared no effort to implement the air defense combat guidance strategy provided by Lu Jiadong;

From striking at the "Normandy" helicopter fleet to confronting the US naval aviation, everything is like this, but although this strategy is good, it has an insurmountable drawback, that is, it cannot let the enemy be entangled in any case, and if it is entangled once it is entangled, the US military has a huge number of air forces.

It is inevitable that the "Falcon" ground-to-air missile battalion will be buried in the depths of the desert, and it is precisely for this reason that after achieving certain results, carrying out covert maneuvers is the core of the air defense guerrilla strategy, so after shooting down six US fighters, Colonel Mohammed followed the plan and prepared to accept it as soon as it was good, but he did not expect that before he could finish collecting it, the wave of US attacks would fall on his head again...........
