Chapter 903: Multi-Layered Trap
It has to be said that this journalist revealed that the ultimate purpose of Israel's launch of drones is to lure the anti-aircraft missile radars of the Syrian anti-aircraft missile forces to turn on and lure them to launch missiles in preparation for a real follow-up strike.
The Israeli side's plan is as follows: Let these "scouts" and "fierce dogs" drones take the lead in flying over the Syrian missile positions, and the Syrian troops, who do not know the inside story, will naturally turn on the radar of the Sam-6 missiles in order to beat them down to guide the missiles to attack the targets.
As soon as these radars were turned on, the "Scout" and "Fierce Dog" UAVs immediately transmitted the intercepted radio signals to the E-2C "Hawkeye" early warning aircraft that were already waiting in the air behind and in the Mediterranean, and the "Hawkeye" then transmitted this information to the F-4 "Phantom" fighters. After the F4 "Phantom" obtained the information, it launched a "standard" anti-radiation missile imported from the United States to destroy the guidance radar of the Sam-6, so that the Sam-6 without radar guidance suddenly became "blind." It would have been better if Syria had launched missiles without knowing what was going on, and the bombing would have been safer.
As things stand, it is clear that the Israeli side has achieved its goal, and it has far exceeded their expectations: because Syria has fired a large number of missiles.
This cannot be blamed for the lack of intelligence of the Syrian officers and soldiers, but for the fact that they have no experience in this area.
The officers and men who rushed to the scene had long lost their excitement just now, and they looked at each other for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and after coming to their senses, they quickly reported what had happened here to their superiors. Soon, the news that "it was only the Israeli drone that was shot down" was passed down from Guò to the top infantry commander from the officers and soldiers at the forefront, and then to Lieutenant General Manada, the commander of the entire missile position, and a full five minutes had passed.
Lieutenant General Manada, after all, was a smart man, much more knowledgeable than the soldiers, and knew what was going on after only five seconds of thought. As a result, he quickly issued an operational order to suspend missile launches, and then urgently discussed countermeasures with several Soviet experts around him.
Lieutenant General Manada did not know that his orders and countermeasures could not change much at this time, because it was too late.
The SAM-6 missile is a semi-active radar-guided missile. Radar guidance is always needed before and after launch. Just now, when they turned on the radar and launched missiles to shoot down the drone, all the information about the electromagnetic waves emitted by the radar had been leaked around, and it was also transmitted to the Israeli early warning aircraft and electronic warfare planes.
Israel's airborne early warning planes not only recorded the electromagnetic wave frequencies of the radars in the Bekaa Valley, but also recorded the coordinates and positions of these radars and missile launchers through various technical means, and these numbers were quickly transmitted to the computers of the corresponding F4 fighters through the radio waves, which were then poured into the computer chips of the "standard" anti-radiation missiles by the pilots of the fighters.
As the aircraft carrying the "Standard" anti-radiation missile came into range, the command gave an order. One after another, "Standard" anti-radiation missiles roared out from under the belly of the aircraft.
……
Up to now, although Lieutenant General Manada was worried, he did not think that the situation was so serious, and in his mind it was just a waste of one more missile. Wait until these drones are gone, and those real fighters will fly before launching missiles.
He didn't think of it, but the Soviet advisers did, and they immediately built a plan to turn off the guidance radar - some of these advisers thought of the Vietnam War:
During the Vietnam War, because the US Air Force felt the stern threat of ground-based air defense missiles, it put into actual combat the world's first "Mozu" anti-radiation missile, which had just been secretly developed to deal with air defense radars, and blinded many of Vietnam's air defense radars imported from the Soviet Union, which made the Vietnamese military and the Soviet side very angry.
As a matter of fact, this "Mozu" anti-radiation missile is just a passive radar seeker that has been modified from the original air-to-air missile to receive radar beams, and it is an emergency product forced out by the battlefield. Although the time to design and manufacture them was very rushed. But it was a successful product, inflicting huge losses on the Soviets, Vietnam, and the Chinese forces assisting Vietnam as soon as it entered the battlefield.
With the advent of new technologies, especially the rapid frequency conversion technology used to counter radar, the United States has developed a second-generation anti-radiation missile -- that is, the "standard" anti-radiation missile used on the battlefield today. Its seeker has a wide frequency band, which can cover almost all the frequency bands of Soviet air defense radars, and it has a strong ability to resist rapid conversion. Moreover, the missile is equipped with a target position and frequency memory circuit. In order to keep the missile flying according to the memorized target position after the target radar is turned off, it will continue to fly until the target radar is turned on and recaptured, and if the opponent does not turn on the aircraft during this flight, then strike according to the position that was first discovered. In addition, the warhead of this missile is also much more powerful than the "Mozu" anti-radiation missile used in the Vietnam War.
While Lieutenant General Manada and his officers such as Major General Rajha and others were bewildered and somewhat dismissive, and Soviet advisers were worried, the "standard" anti-radiation missiles fired by Israeli warplanes were already whistling down from the electromagnetic waves emitted by the SAM-6 guidance radar.
One after another, the powerful "standard" anti-radiation missiles accurately hit the radar of the Sam-6 missile, blowing up one radar after another into the sky. Expensive equipment was turned into parts and scrap metal in the air and scattered back to the ground, many soldiers and specialists were killed by missiles, and many more soldiers and specialists were killed and injured by these parts and scrap metal, including many Soviet advisers. The explosions of the valley mingled with echoes. Shake the earth. In a few moments, the Bekaa Valley was enveloped in smoke.
At the same time, Israel's "scouts" and "dogs" drones, which were not shot down, were suddenly transformed from death squads into photographers and intelligence gatherers, hovering over the battlefield and transmitting intercepted information and images to Israel's general command via radio waves, where experts would study and determine the targets and priorities of the fighters.
Soon, the command made a simple assessment of the strike effect of the "standard" radiated missiles, and soon issued strike orders to the "wolf" surface-to-surface missile units in Israel on the basis of this assessment. Soon, the "Wolf" surface-to-surface missiles also roared out of the launcher and went straight to the Syrian position, further enhancing the strike effect.
Before the majority of Syrian officers and men could recover from the brilliant results of shooting down the Israeli "warplane," they were stunned by what was happening in front of them: Seven of the 19 Sam-6 missile batteries were completely destroyed at once, as many as 11 missile batteries had their radars destroyed and became "blind," and as many as 1,000 officers and men and experts operating the missiles had been killed or wounded.
Naturally, this tragic scene was also captured by the drones hovering high in the air with cameras, and transmitted to the Israeli rear command in real time, so that Israel's military brains could watch the fierce fighting in the Bekaa Valley without going to the front line.
Then, dozens of F-6 fighters swooped down on the missile positions like wolves. And the F4 fighters that have not finished firing the "standard" anti-radiation missiles hang these missiles and hover in the air, ready to strike again at any time.
The missile positions in the Bekaa Valley have been ravaged again and again by Israel, with one tragic wail after another. Lieutenant General Manada, who was the supreme commander of the position, trembled all over at this time, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he was at a loss:
The guidance radar of the SAM-6 missile cannot be turned on at all, and when it is turned on, it will be destroyed by the "standard" reflex missile, and if it is not turned on and cannot launch the missile, it will not be able to shoot down the enemy aircraft.
It wasn't until his communications staff officers reported that the fighters in their rear were coming that he came back to his senses a little, and he couldn't wait to stare in the direction of his homeland, hoping that his own plane, which he had not been eyeing for a few minutes, would come to his rescue as soon as possible.
Upon learning that the missile positions in the Bekaa Valley had been attacked by Israeli missiles and that a large number of Israeli aircraft had invaded, the Syrian Air Force immediately took off 62 MiG-2 and MiG-2 fighters to counterattack the Israeli attack formation over the Bekaa Valley. Try to eliminate these hateful invaders, or drive them out and put the SAM-6 missiles on the ground into service.
However, these planes, like the SAM-6 missiles on the ground, fell into another trap set by Israel. This trap has as many as three layers, making it impossible for Syrian aircraft to defend themselves.
In the first layer of traps, Israeli electronic warfare aircraft modified with Boeing-707 emitted a strong interfering electrical signal. Before the Syrian fighter plane approached the Bekaa Valley, it fell into strong electromagnetic interference, so that the Syrian fighter plane had just climbed into position and was faced with snowflakes full of airborne radar phosphor screens, not to mention that they could not see the Israeli fighters, that is, they did not know where the fighters of their own side were, and the semi-automatic guidance devices of the air-to-air missiles suspended on the planes did not play any role at all, and they knew that there were Israeli planes in the missile range, but they could not launch the missiles.
In addition to the harsh noise, their headphones could not hear the ground command command clearly, and they didn't know what to do for a while, so they could only ride a blind man and ride a blind horse.
Like the SAM-6 missiles on the ground, the Syrian pilots have become blind, and they appear more terrifying and helpless than those on the ground.
The second layer of traps is the E-2 early warning aircraft hovering at high altitude, and the Syrian planes have just slid into the runway and are firmly caught by the "Hawkeye" early warning aircraft. In a matter of seconds, the computer calculates the various elements of the Syrian planes, and their distance, altitude, bearing, speed and other information are quickly sent by the AWACS to the F5 and F6 fighters responsible for air cover through guò radio waves, and they carry out precise attacks.
