Chapter 429: Operation Silver Triangle IV
In order to increase the reconnaissance capability of the mercenary corps, in addition to the military's spy satellites conducting 24-hour search and monitoring of this area, the US military has also provided a Global Hawk unmanned reconnaissance plane and a set of ground command and information gathering equipment.
In order to increase the strike capability of the mercenary corps, six sets of 24 predator drones and supporting equipment were provided, which are advanced weapons equipped with the latest synthetic aperture radar, accompanied by 2,400 Hellfire anti-tank missiles. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info also gave several thousand Copperspot Snake guided artillery shells, equipped with a 155-mm towed howitzer, capable of delivering precision strikes.
All kinds of cutting-edge equipment such as sniper rifles, shotguns, grenade launchers, bulletproof vests, infrared night vision devices, low-light night vision devices, and infrared thermal imagers with the highest technology content in the US military are in supply in large quantities like garbage.
In particular, a full hundred Super Stallion transport helicopters were given, which is the latest model, a helicopter for the Marine Corps, and a Rand-class maintenance supply ship dedicated to the Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines, two at a time.
The U.S. government demanded that the mercenary corps dispatch at least one air assault division to launch an offensive according to its original plan, the ammunition consumption should be replenished by the United States, and the military expenses should be borne by the United States.
"Yes, we have to give this face, although the US government's purpose is not pure, but it does play a key role, so many advanced equipment, support our confidence, order the lightning air assault division to be dispatched, and the results will be seen at the end of June!" Wu Chen made a decision.
The Americans demanded the end of the year, and the deadline given by the boss was the end of June, which was shortened by nearly half a year, and Thompson and Eric did not dare to slack off, and immediately began to dispatch troops, and a large number of strategic transport planes roared in a few days, transporting all the rest of the troops of the Lightning Air Assault Division.
Ten Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarines suddenly appeared on the surface of the Amazon River, this news immediately aroused the attention of the world, originally thought that the United States directly intervened in this operation, who knew that when I looked at the symbol of the nuclear submarine, it was actually a golden triangle in the middle of the red flag, which belonged to the mercenary corps and the symbol of the Golden Triangle Federation, and public opinion almost turned the sky.
"We are still steadily advancing according to the strategy we formulated at the beginning, sending special forces combat teams, carrying light equipment such as mortars, sniper rifles, shotguns, squad machine guns and grenade launchers, and transporting them by helicopters to carry out special operations in accordance with the information provided by the CIA."
"If the other party's warehouses and production bases are discovered, after reporting the coordinates, the nuclear submarine will launch cruise missiles, or the fighter jets will carry out precision bombing to completely destroy them." Thompson said.
"I would like to add that some mercenary organizations have banded together to make us suffer a big loss in the Silver Triangle region, and this is also a secret mission of yours, find the hiding place of these people, and the air force and navy will take care of the rest." Eric said coldly.
The efficiency of the Americans is very high, the Super Stallion transport helicopter is quickly delivered to the base by C-5 strategic transport aircraft, and what is even more surprising is that ten Perry-class frigates will soon arrive to make up for the need for patrols on the Amazon River, large warships simply cannot enter, ships of more than three thousand tons are the most suitable, the point is that the frigates have special helicopter platforms.
With the roar of the engines, the Super Stallion helicopters loaded with the soldiers of the special forces left the base and landed or rappelled directly in the demarcated area, the first target of which was the trafficking organization in Peru, which has the largest production.
The U.S. government is not so unreliable in doing things, and this operation is not a whim, the CIA and the military have spent a lot of effort on the Silver Triangle, with the infiltration of intelligence personnel and the constant monitoring of spy satellites, and several production bases of the trafficking syndicate have been firmly controlled.
"Your mission is to carry out saturation bombing of the manufacturing plants of the trafficking syndicates according to the coordinates provided by the CIA, and wipe these places off the face of the earth! Of course, the nature of the target will be confirmed by our special forces to avoid such a thing as accidental injury. Ground crews check the planes for bombs, pilots are on standby for action, and in a maximum of eight hours, you're on duty! "Thompson stood on the airfield and laid out the personnel of the B-52 strategic bomber squadron.
The US military has allocated tens of thousands of guided bombs and air-to-ground missiles of various kinds for this operation, and the US bombs naturally have to be dropped by US strategic bombers; each of these 12 stratofortress strategic bombers can carry 12 joint direct attack munitions for precision bombing, and one ton of guided bombs with a heavy charge of nearly half can make those improvised wooden houses fly into the sky.
The Super Stallion transport helicopter is currently one of the most advanced helicopters in the world, with a range of 1,000 kilometers, but the base is less than 400 kilometers away from the target area, and can transport 37 fully armed mercenaries at a time, as well as carrying equipment, which is also the reason why the Americans support this batch of transport helicopters.
According to the guidance of the navigator, the helicopter slowly landed more than ten miles away from the target area, and thirteen members of the special forces stayed next to the helicopter, and the remaining twenty-four people were divided into two groups, carrying weapons and equipment and quietly touching the vicinity of a production base.
It is a mountainous area with steep terrain and rugged roads, and through a telescope, there are about forty or fifty wooden houses near a forest, which looks like a small village in the mountains, but it is very lively, and people and cars are extremely busy.
Closer to continue looking, the wooden house in the center is supposed to be a production workshop, and the roar of the machines can be heard from a long distance due to the use of diesel generators to provide power. Trucks and SUVs were parked in the open space in front of the workshop, and dozens of guys with automatic rifles were wandering around, their expressions a little unruly.
"It can be confirmed that this is a production site belonging to a trafficking syndicate, but the CIA did not fool us, and sent a signal to the base that strategic bombers should start attacking!" The team leader stared at the scene in front of him and said coldly.
He knew very well in his heart that as long as a plane dropped a bomb, even the house and people here would be in vain, but the problem is, the US government needs to see this scene, and there are satellites in the sky!
