702 The Death of the Invincible Aircraft Carrier (Congratulations on the Sleepless Wedding 3/9)
The Flying Fish from China was blown up by the Iranians, but it did not show any remarkable performance on the battlefield between Iran and Iraq.
For these huge missiles, Colonel Ag did not have much confidence.
Especially since these missiles are from China.
Although China is a big country, China's weapons and equipment are really not very good. Except, of course, those cheap light weapons, as well as ammunition.
Now there is no way.
Originally, the navy was ready to purchase AM-39 anti-ship missiles from the French, and the Iranians were also negotiating in France at that time, but in the end, because the French asked for too high a price, it was really more than they imagined. In the end, the Iranians abandoned the purchase and approached the commander of the navy, Gunniro. Aranya sells the anti-ship missiles they have bought too much from China.
Although the performance parameters of these missiles are not much worse than the AM-39 of the French, and the price is not much cheaper. In the end, the commander of the Navy was tempted.
Twenty were bought for $2.3 million each, and the Iranians gave away five for them, with the average price of one being thinned to $1.84 million, and eventually the Iranians hired some mysterious people to help modify the missiles so that they could be launched from the Super Flag.
However, with a range of only 50 km, this is very painful for them.
Because of this, they were not able to participate in the naval battle a few days ago, and they were always intercepted by British fighters at a range of 50 kilometers.
However, there is simply no way to do it now.
If the war cannot be won, the entire Argentine government is finished.
As President Galtieri's most die-hard supporter. Agg felt that he had to succeed in one fell swoop.
He did not follow the commander's request to have all warships equipped with anti-ship missiles from China. Instead, he ordered five super flags to be mounted two each. The remaining ten are air-to-air missiles. Once intercepted by enemy fighters, use ten warplanes to attract enemy fire, and these five look for an opportunity to take out two of Britain's most advanced large warships.
As long as it is killed, basically the war is over!
"Attention to all units, attention to all units, maintain the current flight state, and fly 30 meters close to the sea surface. Dodging radars on enemy warships...... "Ag still has a study of naval aviation combat. When the fighter plane is flying close to the sea level, because the earth is round, it is difficult for the radar above the sea level to search for distant targets.
The Neptune reconnaissance plane had been observing the USS Invincible and the destroyer Sheffield. The British reconnaissance planes took off from time to time, but they did not notice at all that fifteen French-made fighters were flying at high speed two hundred nautical miles away close to the sea.
Not to mention that it is not visible to the naked eye at such a distance, even radar cannot detect it.
Argentina's navy or its air force. After the naval battle, it was almost as if it had disappeared. It never appeared.
After completing their routine patrol, the two Sea Harrier fighters began to return to the aircraft carrier in the rear.
The fighter formation led by Ag formed a herringbone arrow attack formation, and he served as the leader of the arrow at the front, and after entering the two hundred nautical miles, he turned off the radio communication device, kept the radio flying silently, and all flight operations. It's all observed with the pilot's naked eye.
They had to get as close as possible to the British warship, and then throw the eggs under the wings of the fighter in the direction of the warship in the distance.
No need to observe the results. They'll be able to go back!
"Attention units, now there are still a hundred kilometers from the enemy warships, and from now on the formations will remain in radio silence. The interception formation pays attention to my movements, moves the wings to the left, and sets off; Remember to attack the formation, go up with me to the right. We have 30 seconds to turn on the radar and lock on to the enemy warship, then quickly lower the fighter to return to the ......"
When there was still a distance of 100 kilometers, after Ag completed the order to the entire formation, he continued to fly towards the front at a low altitude to skim the sea.
The other fighters were staring closely at the movements of the long plane.
After a long period of training, they are the most elite pilots, and all fifteen super military flags have almost maintained the same flight speed and the same flight action trajectory.
Fifty kilometers away from the fleet in front, Ag quickly climbed upward, and several other super banners with Exocet missiles that were watching his movements also climbed into the air.
In the process of climbing, they began to turn on the radar, reached a hundred and fifty meters above the air, had completed the search, and locked on two huge warships, and then quickly lowered down.
The pilots of the ten fighters behind them who were ready to intercept were glued to the distant sky, and once they saw the British fighters, they would not hesitate to rush forward.
However, no.
"Report, the Northern Radar Sentinel Ship USS Glasgow Missile Destroyer Spotted the Argentine's Super Flag Jump Signal......" Inside the fleet air defense command post above the aircraft carrier Invincible, the communications officer reported to the bigwigs of the air defense command post.
"What jump signal? They told us the same thing in the morning, which made our whole fleet nervous. The commander scolded us, and now again, are these bastards too boring? "The colonel of the air defense command said with great annoyance.
The commander was annoyed by the laziness and pride of the entire fleet.
The false alarm in the morning made the entire fleet extremely nervous, and when they were all mobilized, they found out that it was just a false alarm.
Especially at noon, these bastards were bored and misreported again......
Now, it's the third time.
"Colonel, it's time of war!" The communications officer reminded the colonel.
"Ask if the Sheffield in front of me has been spotted?" The corners of the Colonel's mouth twitched, dissatisfied, and he gave the order and lit the cigar again.
Sheffield is the most advanced destroyer in the Royal Navy, and everything on it is the best.
With the Sheffield in front, there is no need to worry about being attacked at all, besides, the radar station on the aircraft carrier has not reacted at all, and it is fifty kilometers away from here, and it has not been detected! The planes patrolling above also did not sound the alarm!
"Report, no! Sheffield is connecting to satellites, and the radar is not on......"
"Did you spot the Armaus next to you?" Although it may be a false alarm, you must be careful in times of war!
"Woo woo ......" Before the communications officer could ask about the situation, a terrible air raid siren sounded outside.
"Enemy attack! Fighters take off to intercept! Hearing this air defense siren, the cigar from the mouth of the colonel of the air defense command post immediately fell.
Having not yet seen the situation outside, only such an order can be issued.
Without waiting for the order, the deck began to get busy, and two fighters that had just been about to land were pulled up in an instant, heading towards a group of small black dots that appeared in the sky in the distance!
That's the Argentine fighter!
Not a false positive this time!
Once the aircraft carrier Invincible is attacked, no one knows what the consequences will be.
Such a consequence cannot be borne by the whole of Britain.
The entire task force is equally unbearable!
No one dares to think about the consequences.
"Launch a cloud of interference, anti-aircraft fire readiness ......"
The Invincible was busy, the Sheffield was busy, and even the Armaus, which was nearby.
Anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft cannons, as well as anti-aircraft missile launchers were put into action.
"Launch, the two small ones next to them will come with two, and the rest, all towards the Invincible!" At this time, he didn't care about revealing his whereabouts, and he was only less than twenty kilometers away from the front, so the MiG let the fighters behind rise into the air to attract the attention of the other party, and at the same time he began to take several fighters carrying anti-ship missiles behind him into the air, quickly turned on the radar, and locked on the most massive Invincible aircraft carrier.
After locking, the launch button was quickly pressed, and the two huge anti-ship missiles under the wings of the super military flag, painted in white on the outside, and painted with black paint with the words C801, fell from under the pylons on the wings one after the other, and without falling a few meters away, the engine above the butt began to ignite work, and the huge missile, driven by the engine, began to rush out to the front, leaving a white trajectory.
When it flew a few hundred meters forward, the missile rapidly descended, reached a position less than 20 meters above the sea surface, and began to change its flight trajectory up and down......
Each transformation takes less than a second.
At the same time, several more missiles flew towards the huge warship in the distance......
"Missile attack!"
The anti-aircraft machine gun ...... fired flames at the missiles flying in the distance, and no one cared about it, even at a very long distance.
During World War II, many aircraft carriers sank, but after World War II, they couldn't.
The pride of the Royal Navy of the British Empire cannot be lost in their hands.
The "Boom, Boom, Boom......" anti-aircraft cannon also fired.
On the aircraft carrier Invincible, the ground crew and pilots are preparing quickly and nervously, and although the exercise has been carried out countless times, the actual combat is not as easy as the exercise. So far, only three warplanes have taken off.
Other fighters are still being prepared!
The Sheffield has anti-aircraft missiles on it, but these missiles simply can't lock onto the missiles that are constantly changing their flight paths!
"Boom!" The first missile, which was no longer changing its trajectory and flying straight towards the waterline of the aircraft carrier Invincible, was hit by a dense number of anti-aircraft missiles and exploded at a distance of less than 60 meters from the Invincible.
"Boom!"
The second 801 missile fired by Ag finally hit the aircraft carrier Invincible, exploding near the bow below the waterline.
The violent explosion made the huge aircraft carrier swing, and the angle of the anti-aircraft machine gun and anti-aircraft gun on it changed instantly.
In an instant, the latest aircraft carrier in service was blown open a hole, and a large amount of seawater poured into the aircraft carrier.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Several violent explosions sounded in a row, and on the attacked side of the Invincible aircraft carrier, four huge holes with a diameter of more than one meter appeared in turn...... (To be continued.) )
