Chapter 984: Night Demon No. 3

At two o'clock in the morning, all four helicopters took off.

Two Mi-24 Hind helicopter gunships, one Mi-17 transport helicopter, one ultralight Gazelle helicopter.

The Syrian Air Force had never carried out night bombing before, let alone carried out night airborne operations, and Gao Yang believed that their actions could achieve maximum suddenness, but he could not guarantee whether they could accurately pounce on the right place.

The afternoon's reconnaissance yielded some results, and the photographs were returned as soon as it was dark, and Ark made a judgment based on the photographs, choosing a place among the many buildings that was most likely where Badadi was hiding.

The Syrian civil war has been going on for a long time, and the Adalah district is a zone of repeated contention, and there are almost no complete buildings, so it is too difficult to find a place that is most likely to be used as a headquarters in a zone that is stronger than the ruins, but strong and limited.

It was too difficult, and the time was tight, so Ark's criteria for judging were almost ridiculous, he just found a big flag on a building, and then found a car near that building, and then Ark thought it was the most likely place for Badadi to hide, and then Gao Yang really used the building with just a flag as the only point of attack.

The reasons are very loose, and it is really ridiculous for a country's intelligence agencies to judge the target of an operation based on a flag, but since both Ark and Gao Yang have made the same judgment, of course, there is a reason.

According to the law discovered by Yak, and based on the experience of Gao Yang himself, their common conclusion is that Ace Ace really likes to show his flag, and in general. Wherever the banner is displayed. This is usually where the top local officials are located.

Take the initiative to show the flag. And then exposing the vital target is not only stupid, it is simply stupid to death, but the problem is that Ace is willing to do this, and what can others do.

Now Gao Yang is gambling, betting that his goal is as stupid as ever, if the selected target point is empty, there is no way, if the bet is right, it will be a hit.

The flight performance of the Mi-17 is not comparable to that of the Black Hawk. And the feeling of flying in the Mi-17 is also very uncomfortable, the noise is loud, the vibration is large, the typical Soviet style, you can send people to the battlefield, as for comfort, what is it?

Gao Yang didn't feel any comfort at the moment, and the question he was thinking about was not whether he could pounce on the right place, he was thinking about whether he should add another transport helicopter.

The Mi-24 is an armed transport helicopter, but let the Mi-24 take on the task of air strike. The Mi-24 can no longer be given the task of sending people away, not to mention the amount of ammunition that must be reduced when loaded with people. It's too delaying to put people on the ground and then pull them up to exert firepower, and Gao Yang wants speed, and he can't carry forward the characteristics of Mi 24 skill transportation and attack.

And the Mi-17, the cabin can hold 24 heavily armed soldiers, it is enough to raise them, but one plane can only put people at one point, and then the commandos will disperse the attack, if there are two planes, then they can attack at two points at the same time.

Gao Yang sat closest to the hatch, Satan's assault team all came, but Tommy and Jensen did not participate in the attack, they were not needed this time, and No. 13 did not come, although he strongly asked to follow Gao Yang's side, but No. 13 was not suitable for this kind of frontal combat situation, so Gao Yang finally pressed No. 13 in the base, because they said that No. 13 must obey orders.

Satan didn't come, but Farouk came, and not only did he come, but he also personally participated in the attack, and his main role was not to fight, but to act as a reporter with the army.

The so-called military reporters, that is, Farouk wears a night vision camera on his head, and will film their every move, especially the results of the battle.

Originally, Gao Yang was extremely reluctant to let Farouk participate, but they cooperated everywhere and provided planes that were extremely valuable to Syria for other purposes.

As for the possibility of leaks, although there are also leaks, it is not large, because Gao Yang is wearing Syrian military uniforms, and their faces are either wearing masks or camouflage camouflage, even if they are filmed by the camera, they can't see who it is, and in terms of the benefits they get and the benefits of letting Farouk follow, this little risk can be taken.

The Mi-17 mechanic sent by Jachlan and Polovich was piloting the plane, and the person sent by Polovich was not only a mechanic, but also a pilot, and it was more than enough to act as a co-pilot, as for the random mechanic, it was sent from the airport, and Gao Yang never found the random mechanic of the Mi-17.

As for Irene, she had to pilot the little antelope, Cui Bo was her co-pilot, and the only passenger she pulled was Grolev, and the plane needed to provide machine gun cover in the air, and the reason why Grolev was not equipped with a co-shooter was to leave the load and space to bring more machine gun bullets.

Four helicopters swooped down in a dense formation to the predetermined area, and after leaving the airfield, the helicopters turned off all their lights and flew in total darkness.

If there is no night vision device, the helicopter has no possibility of night combat, although Gao Yang has equipped all pilots with helmet-type night vision devices, but the small night vision device is too close whether it is a low-light or thermal imaging field of view, and after the installation of a night vision modification kit with a detection range of seven kilometers, the three old helicopters immediately have night combat capabilities.

Of course, it's improvised, in Erin's words, even the wiring is a modification of the bright line, which is too rough, but according to the Russian point of view, what is rough is not rough, and if it is fine, it can't be eaten as a meal, just be able to fight.

Finally, the weapons operator and observer of the No. 1 aircraft said on the intercom: "Arrive at the sky above the combat area, find the target building, lower the altitude, and start to observe closely." ”

Gao Yang looked out from the side porthole, it was only a piece of green, and he couldn't see the ground clearly, but as the height decreased, although it was still not clear, he could see the situation on the ground.

After a moment's pause, the observer of the No. 1 machine said softly: "Daredevil No. 2, responsible for the west side of the target building, Daredevil No. 3, go to the airborne landing field, Daredevil No. 4, move freely." ”

When it was time to land, the sound of pulling the bolt sounded in the cabin, and after a loud noise, Gao Yang said on the walkie-talkie: "I'm the black devil, get ready." ”

Jachlan shouted, "Daredevil Three, arrive at the intended airspace. ”

After the announcement, the observer of the first machine said in a deep voice: "The heat source on the left side of the target building is obvious, the heat source is active, and the heat source on the right side is less, which is consistent with the intelligence analysis, it can be considered that the left side is the entrance, and the Daredevil One is ready to request an attack." ”

"Daredevil Two, ready, request to start attacking. ”

Gao Yang took a breath and said loudly, "Attack!"

Advanced helicopter gunships, such as the AH-64 Longbow Apache, have night vision equipment and are integrated with reconnaissance.

At the same time as the helicopter discovers the target, there will be a crosshair on the fire control display screen aimed at the target, and at this time, it means that the cannon and missiles are aimed at the target.

More advanced is the helmet aiming system, when the target is found, the pilot puts down the observation lens on the helmet, the image will appear directly in front of the pilot's eyes, there is a crosshair on the observation lens, the front sight is aimed at the target to fire, and the pilot's head turns, the cannon also rotates, that is, the pilot's eyes are cast there, and the cannon will be aimed there.

It's a pity that the helicopters in Syria are all old models, and the planes that Gao Yang can use are not so advanced, and after installing a night vision system, they can only be seen, and they are not connected to the weapon system.

Fortunately, Gao Yang found the old pilots, when these old pilots carried out night strikes, they were not as advanced and convenient as they are now, and they didn't even have reliable night vision devices, so Gao Yang found the right people to find the old pilots, because they had rich experience in using weapons systems that were not so advanced.

Gao Yang didn't know what effect fire preparation could achieve, and if he couldn't use helicopter gunships to directly clear the enemy outside, then their attack would be even more risky.

After the order was given, Daredevil 1 fired a few shots first, the 23mm twin-mounted cannon in the nose came first, and then Daredevil 2 also came with a shuttle.

In the night vision device, a string of bright lights fell at Gao Yang's feet at a very slow speed like a meteor, and then ricocheted on the ground, and several cannonballs bounced off the ground, drawing a slower flash of light before disappearing.

It looks slow, but the speed of the shells is clearly not as slow as it feels.

After the first test ballistic hit, Daredevil One may have found the trajectory, and then the rockets began to rain down in a row.

The helicopter fired rockets were widely dispersed, and in order to achieve the best results in the first round of attacks, the two helicopters fired 80 mm rockets first.

After just a few seconds, a total of sixteen rockets fell to the ground, and it seemed that the effect was not bad, and the impact points were quite concentrated.

After a few seconds of pause and observation, Daredevil I refilled six 57mm rockets, while Daredevil II did not use rockets, but only re-fired with a cannon.

Daredevil One then flew forward again, circled slightly, and after firing all the remaining 80mm rockets at a nearby building, Daredevil II followed up with a cannon.

When Daredevil 1 and 2 stopped attacking again, the observer of Daredevil 1 said unhurriedly: "Daredevil 3, the landing conditions have been met, you can land, repeat, you can land." ”

Gao Yang took a deep breath and said, "Daredevil Four, low-altitude cover, Daredevil No. 3 landed, guys, it's time for us to get on." (To be continued......)
