Chapter 238: The so-called torrent of steel

Defense Minister Malinovsky, Commander-in-Chief Grechko, and Chief of the General Staff Zakharov glanced at each other, and even Baghramyan, who did not often express his opinions, and his classmate Yeremenko were also slightly surprised. At present, they are the only two groups of people in the world who understand the concept of armored warfare, and unlike the sad counterparts of the Third Reich, the marshals of the Soviet Union can continue to rely on the Red Army to realize their ideas.

It must be explained that although the marshals of the Red Army have complained about disarmament, they welcome the commissioning of new equipment, and disarmament can but must not damage the combat effectiveness of the Red Army. The equipment that Ustinov said today that this year's production is actually not much for the Soviet Red Army, and in previous years, more than 3,000 tanks entered the Red Army's equipment sequence, and this concept is that the Soviet Union's tank production will build up a year to build up the scale of armor of the Chinese Army of the same era.

These marshals absolutely did not expect that it was the commander of the Internal Guard Army who put forward the concept of complete three defenses, you must know that at this time last year, Serov led the General Directorate of Military Administration, and was still chasing the plan of the Ministry of Defense to supervise disarmament, and earlier he was still in the Red Army to track down the so-called Bonapartist Brothers, and these marshals all knew that the so-called Bonapartist was the crime that Khrushchev specially gave to Marshal Zhukov.

Kozlov nodded to Serov, which can be regarded as an endorsement of the concept of three defenses in Serov's mouth, and the offensive plan of the Soviet Red Army has always considered the use of tactical nuclear weapons, including the United States throwing nuclear bombs at the Soviet Union and the Soviet Union's nuclear strike on Europe. The concept of the three defenses was also a topic of internal discussion in the Red Army, but it was never a complete concept, and Serov's summary was relatively in place at present.

Kozlov was the number two man who was inextricably linked to the Soviet Red Army. Naturally, it understood what the Red Army and the military-industrial complex needed, and his opinion in this regard did not even dare to refute even Brezhnev. Kozlov's endorsement shows that there is no need to discuss the issue, so it will be done.

"I think that the issue of building the Red Army in the next 10 years should have the following points, and in developing on the basis of the concept of a large-depth assault, we must first consider these aspects. How to use tactical missiles, air force, and rocket artillery to support our tank groups must be done in such a way that NATO's air force cannot strike at our tank groups as they please. Serov stood up and expressed his opinion while reminiscing, in fact, he was talking about the achievements of the Soviet Union in army building after the 70s as a development direction of the Red Army's combat system.

In fact, the air defense system of the Soviet army must be perfected, and it must be an offensive air defense strategy, so as to push the war to the opposite side as much as possible. The so-called torrent of steel is not to line up the tanks against the opponent's air force, this kind of stupid idea is completely played too much by the Red Police, even if the Red Police play too much. The game company is not stupid, people know that the Apocalypse tank is made into a tank with its own air defense.

First, the first use of short-range ballistic missiles to destroy enemy front-line airfields This was the first step of the Soviet air defense operation, at a distance of about one hundred to eight hundred kilometers, which was exactly the distance from the GDR to the Atlantic coast.

Secondly, the take-off of Sukhoi and MiGs through front-line airfields to engage the remaining air targets of the enemy, but certainly at least a hundred kilometers ahead of the position to prevent a friendly attack, and at the same time prevent NATO air power from rising into the air. If possible, it would be better to annihilate the NATO air force in the airfield.

Third. After the Sukhoi and MiG fighters did not completely prevent the NATO air force from taking off, and a group of enemy planes passed through the iron curtain in the air, the SAM missiles will destroy all air targets in a range of about 100 to 20 kilometers

Fourth, under the guidance of radar, an anti-personnel barrage composed of antiaircraft artillery will destroy all air targets in a specific airspace, such as an altitude of 1,000 to 3,000 meters and a range of 10 to 20 kilometers. Of course, it is also possible to use nuclear bomb air defense.

Fifthly, there is also a low-altitude air defense network composed of Shilka anti-aircraft vehicles, Tunguska portable bombs, as well as cannons of BMPs and BTRs, as well as accompanying army aviation, which is the last layer of protective clothing of the so-called steel torrent, if all five layers of protection are broken?

I don't know how many NATO fighters were left to celebrate, because they saw the so-called torrent of steel, and then they finally saw the Soviet tank army, which was measured in 10,000 units. I don't know if the remaining planes and bullets are enough for the number of tanks, of course, we also have to consider the Soviet helicopter group over the Soviet tank army, the number of helicopter groups is not very large, Serov estimates that it should be less than 10,000 units.

After all, compared to the number of tanks in the Soviet Union during the Cold War, the Soviet Union's helicopter production was much less, less than 30,000 units.

"To put it simply, the three-dimensional large-depth assault force I imagined should be like this!" After talking about the Soviet Red Army system in the seventies and eighties, Serov nodded to all the Marshals of the Red Army and the leaders including Kozlov and Brezhnev, and slowly returned to his seat. Of course, some of the names of later Soviet weapons and equipment have been omitted, but the meaning is very clear.

"Our first offensive will require at least 20,000 tanks and 5,000 helicopters, and it seems that I still have a lot of work to do!" Ustinov said a very self-deprecating remark, but immediately said that he was willing to work hard to achieve this goal.

The creation of a large-depth assault force was a systematic operation on the basis of Soviet tank groups. Without this premise, there is nothing, and in terms of military ideology, the Soviet Union is not lagging behind the United States, for example, the historical Marshal Ogarkov revolution, Marshal Ogarkov is keenly aware of the profound changes that are taking place in the military field, and profoundly pointed out: The rapid development of information technology with electronic computers as the core and the emergence of a large number of precision-guided weapons will certainly fundamentally break the old development model of the armed forces and promote and promote the occurrence of a new military revolution.

Marshal Ogarkov's reform was not so much opposed by the old generals as it was dragged down by the huge military power of the Soviet Union, and if the reform was carried out according to Marshal Ogarkov's ideas, the Soviet Union's huge military combat system might not be enough to build an information-based army. After all, the Soviet Union is not the United States, and the United States can play the so-called information war in Iraq, but in fact it is at best just a game for adults to play against children, and in the face of the all-out war prepared by the Soviet Union, the reserves of the United States in high-tech warfare cannot even hold out in a single campaign, and there is only one result, and after all the high-tech weapons have been exhausted in three days, the United States will honestly play a hard-nosed all-out war with the Soviet Union.

When Serov finished talking about all the preparations needed for the Red Army, Kozlov was the first to applaud, and Defense Minister Malinovsky, Commander-in-Chief Grechko, and Chief of the General Staff Zakharov soon applauded. All the marshals of the Ministry of Defense looked at this young man differently, of course, one yard to another, and these marshals still could not look past the work of the Main Directorate of Military Administration, and only expressed their appreciation for Serov's proposal.

For almost the first time, Serov's proposal won the admiration of everyone concerned with the Red Army, and even the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Red Army, Grechko, who had always been dissatisfied with him, gave him a round of applause, which he did not expect, and if he had the opportunity, he would have hoped that there would be more such occasions to defuse the hostility with these old marshals of the Red Army (to be continued). )
