Chapter 662: It's All Coming
Originally, Hou Dasheng used the L9A1-50mm mortar made in the United Kingdom. The advantage of this mortar is that it is light and has a large strike range. IT HAS NO GUN MOUNT, AND EVEN THE TOTAL COMBAT WEIGHT IS ONLY 6.2KG.
It is completely man-portable and can provide fire support at any time. But it also has huge problems, first of all, precision. Shooting without a gun carriage is handheld, and it requires specialized, long-term training to expand the hit rate.
This is a fight with the grenadiers of the Japanese army during the Anti-Japanese War, after the first batch of trained Japanese soldiers died. The grenadier hits of the Japanese troops who followed up all depended on faith.
Even if the U.S. military is very sure of the strike capability of the Japanese grenadiers, it has to admit that this weapon needs to undergo special training to ensure a certain degree of hit. Otherwise, whether you can kill the enemy by hitting it really depends on luck.
Hou Dasheng: A large part of the reason why they can equip the L9A1 is that they have a large number of players from SAS or SBS. They have their own understanding of this mortar, and it is not the glamorous goods on the outside at all.
During their training, many of them will be familiar with how to operate this mortar. And this mortar, which was developed, was actually to a certain extent also for fire support for the infiltration of small forces. So much so that in the British army, only platoons and companies will be equipped with this cannon.
And most of the time, it's just used to hit flares and smoke bombs. Or do some work to stop the pursuit. Only a few times will it play its original role - to hit the opponent's firepower point.
Now Hou Dasheng is equipped with the ANTOS-60T, which is a further individual mortar. It is based on the original mortar, with more sighting equipment, lighter and, most importantly, improved ammunition.
Through the return of the commandos in the front, the jackal holding this cannon in the rear can use his handheld GPS to determine the position of the artillery to be shelled. Then, through the adjustment instrument that comes with this gun, it can ensure its own shelling accuracy to the greatest extent.
It's much better than hastily calculating or relying on experience. Everything is data-based, and the front commandos will also tell you where to land and let you correct the data and shell again. Basic two, up to three will hit the target.
Under such a strike, it is difficult to protect the local firepower points in the trenches and the hidden firepower points.
All this time, the debate about mortars and grenade launchers continues. The former has the advantage of being light enough that you can even mount a grenade launcher under the chamber. That's what the U.S. military does.
Moreover, the grenade occupies a small space and is easy to carry. In the case of individual soldiers, it is very simple to bring a few per person. But the problem with the grenade launcher, too, is huge. The biggest problem is accuracy, if it's not a direct shot, it's a projectile.
If you don't hit it, it really depends on luck and bet on faith. If the opponent is in a hidden corner, it is also very difficult to get in.
Mortars, on the other hand, do not have this problem to a certain extent. And it is also more powerful than a gun grenade, with a wider killing range. But if the mortar is made into a single soldier, it will also face the problem of accuracy.
There is also a problem that limits the play of mortars, and that is shells. You can reduce the weight of the gun, but what about the shells?! So, the first thing ANTOS-60T thought about was artillery shells.
Now the shells are now down in weight in the first place. THE STANDARD FIVE-BOX SHELLS WEIGH ONLY 4.9KG. At the same time, the explosive part and the body are packed separately. When using it, you only need to screw it in along the thread.
To make it easy to carry, they also designed a dedicated tactical vest. The Tactical Vest can carry eight shells in front and behind per man. At the same time, there is a hook to fix the mortar on the back.
It can be said that Hou Dasheng is very satisfied with this mortar. If it's really good, Hou Dasheng doesn't mind adding an extra heavy fire support group to his combat team.
"The notice has been sent out, and the other party knows the location." The hound followed Hou Dasheng's side and whispered, "They will arrive in two days." The hunt will start on the third day......"
Hou Dasheng squinted his eyes and leaned against the wall: "Inform everyone, go into the city first and hide." Be careful not to expose them, some nodes only need to be labeled. Put it on them. Wait for them to climb up to those nodes on their own, and then ......"
Needless to say, Hou Dasheng said the rest, the hound and the team below will know how to do it. They do too much of this kind of thing. To put it simply, it is to deliberately vacate some areas and locations that seem to be advantageous if the other party dares to step on them.
Those marked places are the places where their bones are buried. In silence, everyone began to leave the temporary command point and board the bus to the intended area.
Saudi Arabia at this time, Riyadh. A military airfield was brutally requisitioned, and no one knows why. It is only known that the person who came came came from the US Embassy. The entire base, from the ground crew to the tower, was all requisitioned.
The manager of the base, holding back his anger, led the people away under the comfort of his boss. The pilots also drove the fighter plane away in silence. The other party is very domineering, but they are powerless to resist. Some people wanted to say something, but they were pulled away.
Pull away their people and quietly show them their credentials.
"My brother, don't say anything now. The Americans have gone crazy. Here's what the man who showed his badges told them: "Don't provoke them now, these crazy people don't know why they're coming." But Ken is no small thing......"
After a pause, the man in the white robe whispered, "The good news is that these madmen won't stay in Riyadh. They asked us a number, and then they would go to Yemen. After that, it doesn't matter to us whether we live or die. ”
Hearing this, the other party was shocked! With such a big battle, it is definitely not an ordinary person who comes. And not even ordinary troops. What are these people running to Yemen for?! And you need a Saudi number?!
However, from this point, it can be seen why Saudi Arabia has always failed to do Mossad in terms of intelligence. This group of people's sense of secrecy is simply not too ...... cough cough cough ......
Then, they didn't see who each other had arrived. They were quickly "delivered" out of the airport, and then entered by trucks loaded with shell armor. Eight armored trucks entered the airfield, and soon a transport plane landed.
The car didn't stay in the airport for long before it drove out. About half an hour later, the airport was again delivered to the Saudi side. The director of the airport cursed in his heart that all the bastards were going to die, and at the same time took the airport back in a humiliated manner......
