Chapter 429: Victorious Retreat
It is not only mushroom bombs that can create a huge mushroom cloud, as long as the explosive yield is enough, the mushroom cloud will naturally follow, and it is still unrealistic to explode the mushroom cloud under the attack of an anti-ship missile, unless the target it attacks is relatively special.
This time, the 801 missile happened to attack this special target, the name of this target is called the ammunition depot, and the mushroom cloud is something that appeared after the ammunition depot was detonated, and this 801 missile is the missile that has made the greatest contribution in this attack.
You must know that this 927 regiment is a serious attack aircraft regiment, this attack aircraft regiment is different from other fighter regiment stations, and more of the ammunition is attack bombs and missiles.
All kinds of conventional bombs and even anti-ship missiles used to equip Su-22 attack planes were detonated one after another at this moment, and the huge explosion was accompanied by the continuous shaking of the ground, and the underground fortifications of the entire Su-22 attack aircraft regiment were collapsed, and several Su-22 attack planes that survived the previous wave of attacks were buried alive by the collapsed fortifications.
The fighters in these underground hangars will slowly grow old in this dark environment, and maybe one day the excavators will be very lucky to dig it out, but it is impossible to dig out of the sand after more than ten years like the previous Iraqi Jian-7 fighter, and the climate of these two places is too different.
The detonation of the ammunition depot has cast a psychological shadow on the psychology of all the surviving personnel at the airport, and the last strength of the navy has been destroyed, and this great country will be finished sooner or later.
Earthquakes caused by explosions come and go very quickly. After the last survivor stood up, he saw a terrible sight. This scene is no weaker than the bombing of the Americans.
After staring blankly at the apocalyptic scene, he muttered, "Vietnam! What the hell are you provoking? How is it always so calamitous"
"Why"
With this repeated muttering, the survivor who stood up fell weakly as if he had been drained of all his strength, and his head was slammed on the concrete floor unconscious.
This is a Vietnamese naval aviation ground crew with relatively low psychological tolerance, but those who are strong-willed are standing up and looking for survivors everywhere, counting whether there are any surviving fighters.
Some of the survivors kept coming forward and began to dig around the rubble in a frenzy, but what they didn't know was that an even more dangerous situation was happening, and the oil depot not far from the ammunition depot had also cracked under the earthquake caused by the huge explosion just now. It's not a big crack, but the oil is flowing through it, and there's no telling where the oil will end up.
The 927 Attack Aircraft Regiment is in a mess, and the retreating Republic of China Naval Aviation Attack Formation is still on its way to the final retreat, and it will be able to fly out of the Vietnamese coastline in about a minute, and it can fly lower and safer into the flat sea.
The 1st and 3rd Brigades retreated smoothly, but the 2nd Brigade seemed to be in trouble, and turning the formation of one team into a medium formation could effectively avoid the possibility of being annihilated, but at the same time, it also increased the chance of being discovered by the Vietnamese.
And this second group encountered interceptors sent from the Vietnamese Air Force. After all, at that time, the entire formation flew to the mid-altitude to launch missiles, and it was not only discovered by the radar of the 927th regiment station, but also by other Vietnamese air force stations.
The nearest air force fighter regiment naturally sent two MiG-21 fighters on combat readiness to intercept them, and these two fighters coincidentally flew to the retreat route of the second brigade, where the blind cat ran into a dead mouse. It just makes them a great achievement.
The MiG-21 fighters equipped by Vietnam are the original and genuine products supported by the Soviet Union, and the radar has always been a hard flaw, when the two planes suddenly discovered the second group. The first three J-74s relied on their excellent radar performance to lock these two aircraft early. Two missiles were launched at each of them, and the target was the two MiG-21s.
After the missile was launched. The pilots didn't care, they just buried their heads in the flight, their biggest task now is to leave safely, if they choose to pull up and shoot down those two fighters, maybe they can shoot down these two MiG-21s, but what greets everyone is probably the anti-aircraft missiles that have been prepared a long time ago.
"All of them, don't care about the two MiG-21s, everyone continues to fly at ultra-low altitudes, they must fly out of the Vietnamese border, the battle is over, we are waiting to go back to confirm the battle report, and we must fly back safely."
The group led the flight and launched missiles in front, but the only problem was that it was impossible to confirm the follow-up of the two MiG-21s, but this was not important, there were several J-74 fighters behind, and the pilot who flew to the end inadvertently glanced at the MiG-21 fighters above, and a dazzling fire ball appeared very abrupt against the blue sky background, indicating that under the attack of these 6 Thunderbolt-8 missiles, one of the two MiG-21s was hit.
"Captain, it's done, a MiG-21 was hit, I saw the fire."
Hearing the yelling of the guy on the radio, the three J-74 pilots who launched the missile just now all laughed, but they didn't expect that they would be able to get a shot down record in the end, which is really good luck.
But the question that arises is more troublesome, which of the three missiles was launched by the fighter plane, which may be a huge mystery.
After one of the two MiG-21 fighters in the sky was shot down, the pilots of the other MiG-21 fighters were highly skilled and finally escaped, only to find that the group of intruders had long since disappeared.
I don't have the heart to continue tracking, I can only honestly return to the base, the MiG-21 fighter is a notoriously short leg, and the fighters on combat readiness duty are all after the alarm sounds, all the way to the upper limit of continuous use of the afterburner.
The rate of fuel consumption can be quite amazing, naturally, this MiG-21 can only return with hatred, and the news just reported to the Vietnamese Air Force command about this second brigade did not play a big role. No matter how good the anti-aircraft missile is, it just can't hit an ultra-low-flying fighter.
This feeling of knowing where the enemy was, but not being able to shoot it down, made the Vietnamese Air Force anti-aircraft missile units feel beyond the reach of the whip, and finally, as time passed, the second brigade, which had a little bit of a situation, also flew over the Vietnamese coastline without danger.
Again the altitude was lowered, and the sea surface hurried back, and according to the instructions of the navigator, after flying out of the Vietnamese coastline for another 100 kilometers, the attacking force could be regarded as a smooth escape.
From a distance, I saw several air tankers at the last air refueling point, followed by two towing oil bottles on the left and one on the right, and it seemed that they were refueling in the air.
flew closer and found that this number was actually his old rival. Before he could speak, there was a hearty laugh from the radio.
"Zhang Laogou, you can only eat ashes behind Lao Tzu's buttocks, you used to, you are, and you will be in the future."
Hearing the arrogance on the radio, he was naturally not to be outdone: "Wu Laosan, you are a proud fart, Lao Tzu beat rabbits with grass this time, and on the way back, he shot down a Vietnamese MiG-21, what if you arrive before me to refuel!" ”
Hearing the news on the radio, this old dog Zhang complained in his mind hatefully, and then turned off the radio call, and was too lazy to listen to the guy showing off. (To be continued.) )
