Chapter 532: Air Raid
"Long Yi, I heard it, the next air defense task of the base will be handed over to you, if those Americans really dare to enter our radar warning range, then knock them down for me!"
Hanging up the phone, Lin Dong said coldly to Long Yi.
"Understood, leave it to me!" Long Yi is full of confidence, it knows the base's air defense weapon system very well, which is far more than any air defense weapon in the world.
As long as it is locked by the base radar system, then there is basically no possibility of escape!
After thinking for a while, Lin Dong spoke again: "Directly use anti-aircraft missiles, forget about neutron cannons, it is not easy for us to be in the limelight now, otherwise it is likely to attract greater disasters!" ”
Neutron cannon refers to a weapon that fires high-energy neutron beams to hit targets, destabilizing shields and burning electronic equipment.
In fact, this technology has long existed in the real world, such as the current EMP missile, that is, the electromagnetic pulse bomb. This is widely used in modern military.
If this kind of weapon is used, Lin Dong and the others are likely to capture a relatively complete American fighter, in that case, I am afraid that many countries will be interested in this.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Lin Dong still gave up.
After all, if it was just an anti-aircraft missile, it was not uncommon for a mercenary group of them to have such a weapon, and now many armed groups could get it as long as they were willing to spend money.
This is not too rare on the black market.
But the neutron cannon is different!
Even those big countries, that is, they can use electronic pulse bombs in actual combat, as for neutron cannons, they are only in the laboratory, and they have not really reached the level of installation.
If the Americans want to attack the Dragon Soul base, then they can only do so from the nearest air squadron and naval fleet stationed in the port of Mombasa, Kenya.
The Mombasa Air Squadron is a secret air base of the U.S. Air Force in East Africa, and the U.S. military has not released any information about the base.
It is under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Air Base in Saudi Arabia's Dhahran Air Base and has three flying teams, six F-15 Eagle fighters, bombers, transport planes and drones, and a total of nearly 20 aircraft of various types.
At this time, in the command room in the base, Air Force Major Raymond hung up the phone, and then said to the communications officer: "Order, the Predator drone will take off immediately, and the target is Morogoro, Tanzania." Ten minutes after the Predator took off, the F-111 bomber took off and was escorted by a squad of fighters. ”
With the order given, the entire Mombasa airbase was busy.
In the control room of the MQ-9 Predator drone, the two pilots were already in place, and when they heard the command from above, they immediately controlled the drone that had come to the runway to take off and go towards the coordinate location.
The reason why the Americans dispatched such a large force this time was to completely remove the base of the dragon soul from the African continent.
Only in this way can they regain the lost face of their US military and deter those guys who secretly watch their jokes.
The operation was decided by the military's top brass, and even though it knew that the C.I.A. had sent spies to the base, the military did not communicate with the C.I.A. headquarters.
It's just a few spies, and if they die, they will die, and they can be regarded as doing their duty.
However, after the order was given, the CIA got the news.
In a fit of rage, Corris, the head of the CIA's Africa division in Egypt, called the U.S. African Command and told them to stop the operation immediately.
However, it is clear that the Africa Command will not listen to them, it is just an intelligence organization, and it is not a level at all compared to the military headquarters.
However, the Africa Command did not make the matter deadlocked, and the reason they gave the CIA was that they were not responsible for this operation, it was an air force operation, and they had no right to intervene.
Corris almost smashed the phone, he knew too well this kind of prevarication, and by the time he found the person in charge of this matter, I am afraid that his spies would have been killed countless times!
"No, this can't just be left at that. I want to report to the headquarters, and this time the military must give me an explanation! ”
Thinking in his heart, Corris did not hesitate and made a direct phone call to Washington, D.C.
Just when Corris was looking for his parents, the air raid team at the Mombasa base had all set off, and at this time, the Predator drone had already reached the border of Tanzania, and in a maximum of twenty minutes, it would be possible to reach the location of the Dragon Soul Mercenary Group base. Coupled with the F-111 bomber in the back, many people are worried along the way.
F-111 is a supersonic fighter-bomber developed by General Dynamics in the 60s of the last century, and it is also the world's earliest practical variable-sweep wing aircraft. It was used in the Vietnam Theater and the Gulf War.
However, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the US Air Force was heavily disarmed. The F-111, an old-generation fighter with a low degree of automation and high maintenance costs, has naturally become the first choice for elimination.
There are not many F-111 bombers still in use, and they have been in service for more than ten years, and Mombasa Air Base has arranged an F-111 bomber because of its special geographical location in case of emergency.
At this time, in the base of the dragon soul, the sudden air defense alarm frightened everyone.
Bout, who was training those soldiers, looked at the stunned soldiers, and suddenly shouted loudly: "What else are you looking at, didn't you hear the air defense siren?" Give me a shelter to take refuge in immediately! Hurry up, hurry up! ”
Lin Dong had already taken action the moment the alarm sounded.
First, he ordered the researchers in the Vol Conservation Institute to take refuge in the underground fortifications, and he and Sophie quickly came to the command room on the third basement floor.
"Ryuichi, what's the situation? How many enemies are there and how far are they from us now? ”
When he came to the command room, as soon as he entered the door, Lin Dong immediately asked.
"Commander, now the only thing that has entered our radar to search for is an MQ-9 drone, and no other enemies have been found behind it. I judged that the other party was just a reconnaissance, and the real killer move should be still to come. ”
"Only one drone?" Lin Dong suddenly frowned.
Although it is similar to the information that Xiao Ziqing gave him, Lin Dong didn't think that the Americans would just send a drone over in the end after making so much effort, and it would be too much to take his dragon soul in his eyes.
"How far away are we from each other now?"
"There are still thirty kilometers to get to the base above the base."
"MQ-9 UAVs, 2 GBU-12 laser-guided bombs and 4 AGM-114 "Haierfa" air-to-surface missiles, or 227 kg of "Joint Direct Attack Munitions" and 113.5 kg of small-diameter bombs.
Other weapons are not very good, but the laser-guided bomb has a long range and a high hit accuracy, and it can already strike at us at this distance, so Long Yi, you must keep an eye on it, only if the other party has the intention to attack, intercept it immediately! ”
