Chapter 829: Electromagnetic Warfare

NATO's expression was completely within Li Lan's expectations, because under empathy, he would do the same.

After Somalia demonstrated its three-in-one nuclear strike capability, NATO is already extremely jealous of Somalia and will naturally avoid a direct military conflict with Somalia. However, if Somalia cannot be allowed to achieve its goal of nuclear blackmail against NATO, there is only one way left.

Support Kenya openly, and leave no room for anything other than sending troops to the war. This is NATO's plan, they are afraid of provoking Li Lan to adopt jade crushing methods, and they are willing to believe that Li Lan does not want to directly become an enemy of NATO.

In this way, although NATO is tantamount to directly intervening in the war, the two sides still have a buffer zone, and not directly participating in the war is also a sue for Li Lan, and you should not mess around.

However, the involvement of a third party in direct military assistance to one of the two belligerents would be tantamount to a declaration of war on the other.

That is, if the NATO side carries out large-scale arms assistance to Kenya, it will be tantamount to a declaration of war on Somalia. The reason why NATO said that it would not send troops into Kenya to participate in the war is also to tell Somalia that NATO's bottom line.

However, in Li Lan's view, these are not the same thing at all, and NATO's direct military support for Kenya has directly driven him to the edge of the cliff.

With NATO's full support, the Kenyan army can arm a powerful force in a short period of time, and maybe there will be a mercenary drama at that time, and Kenya will become a quagmire.

However, none of this is important, the reason why Li Lan sent troops to Kenya. The ultimate goal is to force NATO down this path, and he is not afraid of NATO's support for Kenya. I am afraid that if NATO does nothing, it will be even more difficult for him to do it at that time.

And he specially asked the Ministry of Defense to draw up a declaration of war. It is to push the war between the two countries to a reasonable position, so that the whole world can clearly know that Somalia and Kenya are at war, and it is also to let the world understand that as long as NATO supports Kenya, it is equivalent to declaring war on Somalia.

When this condition is established, then Li Lan's first goal has been achieved, and if there is no excuse, how can he uproot all NATO bases around Somalia.

The charge of provoking war is not small. Not to mention against a huge military bloc, if even public opinion is at a disadvantage, then there is no way to fight the war.

Li Lan ordered Natasha: "Let the Ministry of Defense and the Supreme High Command prepare a tough document that emphasizes that NATO's move is a declaration of war on Somalia, and if it insists on going its own way, NATO will pay for it." ”

――――

At the same time, a large number of warplanes from the five major Somali military regions began to take to the air in groups of two, loaded with various missiles, and rushed to the front line, including the Bagua City Air Base. The last two fighters to take off were none other than two Apollo fighters. These two heavy air superiority fighters are sandwiched in the murderous group, like two golden eagles flying with a flock of birds, so elegant and domineering.

Golden Knight No. 8 Cai Kaohsiung skillfully piloted the beloved war eagle like his wife. Soaring at an altitude of 13,000 meters, he loved the feeling of wandering through the world, looking down on the whole land. Experience the spectacular beauty of Mother Earth.

Looking ahead, the navigation lights converge into a spark. It was as if a dense meteor shower was slowly streaking across the sky.

Under the instructions of the AWACS aircraft, the group quickly flew towards the territory of Kenya.

At the same time. In southern Kenya, a Filcom early warning aircraft originating from Israel also climbed to a safe altitude, and the nose bulb-shaped radar in the nose of the aircraft began to operate, and the Kenyan Air Force non-commissioned officer on the early warning aircraft soon discovered a large number of radar signals.

Dozens of Kenyan fighters that took off at the same time soon swooped over with great momentum.

"Please note that the Golden Knight Brigade has found forty-eight enemy aircraft, with an azimuth of 021, a speed of Mach 0.7, and a distance of three hundred kilometers, which are preliminarily judged to be F-16 and Rafale mixed aircraft groups, please be prepared."

"Silver Knight Brigade, please pay attention, new enemy situation has been discovered, azimuth 054, speed 0.4 Mach, number sixty-two, distance of one hundred and fifty kilometers, preliminarily judged to be an F-4 ghost fighter, please be prepared."

On the huge Lookout early warning plane, a large number of electronic instruments kept flashing in its bloated body, and a large number of aircraft groups coming from two directions were successfully captured by the airborne phased array radar, and the Ministry of Communications immediately notified the two aviation groups of Gold and Silver.

Just as the captains of the two brigades were about to give the order to meet the battle, the voice of the dispatcher of the early warning aircraft was once again voiced without any emotion: "Notify all the aircraft groups to turn on anti-electromagnetic interference within one minute, and all of them will be converted to ultra-low frequency." Two electromagnetic pulse bombs, which have already been launched. ”

At the same time, in the built-in magazines of the lightning supersonic bomber that had departed in advance, two heavy V-2XH cruise supersonic missiles had already flown towards the east and west of central Kenya with a bright tail flame.

At the same time, with the departure of the Kenyan aircraft group, Major General Lines, commander of the 24th Mountain Division, who was in charge of ground command, was in the division headquarters at this moment, staring at the radar screen and counting the seconds.

"It was reported that Somali warplanes had come within attack range. Please tell me if you want to launch missiles. The radar soldier nervously looked at the red dot on the radar signal and quickly reported.

Kabuqi on the side also said loudly: "Division commander, it's almost over, our air force is about to arrive." ”

"Let's get started!" Lines didn't think much of it, and nodded in agreement.

The order was quickly conveyed, and then in several canyons in the southern part of the Tajiwa Plateau, missiles were quickly shot out of the launch box, and the strong air flow rolled up a large amount of dust, which soon filled the entire valley, and dozens of anti-aircraft missiles passed through the dust and smoke, changed orbits in the air many times, and flew towards the distant sky.

However, at this moment, all phased array radars suddenly issued a warning, and two rapid targets flashed on the radar screen.

"What is this?" The Kenyan radar soldier exclaimed in a very rusty way.

Lines and Kabuqi stepped forward at the same time, looking at the signal on the radar screen, also with a puzzled face, at this time, a white soldier on the side saw the radar screen, and exclaimed: "This is a supersonic cruise missile......

At the time of this exclamation, one of the missiles had already detonated about five hundred meters in front of the canyon, just a light blue flash of explosion, without any shrapnel or any fire, but a shock wave like substance spread over the plain, like water ripples spreading around, but relative to the water waves, the speed of this impact was too fast, and it only spread to the sky in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, all the electronic equipment within a radius of more than 200 kilometers simultaneously emitted an unpleasant sizzling sound, especially the Kenyan air defense forces, radar, and electrical equipment that were closest to the explosion were paralyzed in an instant.

The headquarters of the 24th Mountain Division, which was located in a tunnel in the canyon, was not spared at this moment, the light bulb on the top burst instantly, all the electronic instruments were extinguished at the same time, and the entire command headquarters was plunged into boundless darkness.

"What the hell is going on?" Barely hearing the explosion, but asked a strong, pungent burning smell, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness, and Lines immediately spoke up.

"This is supposed to be an electromagnetic pulse bomb dropped by Somalia." The white soldier who had just spoken spoke again.

"The missile ...... outside" Lines was not without any knowledge, and as soon as he heard about the electromagnetic bomb being sold, a desperate scene naturally appeared in his mind.

……

At the same time, dozens of missiles on the plateau seemed to have become drunks at the moment, and the straight route was completely reversed after the electromagnetic pulse wave, and even a few missiles pierced directly to the ground.

The radar equipment and missile launchers in the canyon have also become very quiet, and you can even see a few electric sparks popping up at the junction of some lines.

On the other side, the second missile flew to the end of the plateau, and then detonated less than fifty kilometers away from Nairobi, and the same picture appeared again, where the electromagnetic pulse passed, all the lights disappeared, and the entire capital area was completely plunged into darkness.

Today, with the development of electromagnetic technology, ordinary vacuum tubes can no longer offset advanced electromagnetic radiation, just like the electromagnetic pulse missiles dropped by the United States in Bagua City, the electromagnetic pulse technology of the United States today is not at the level of the 80s of the 20 th century, and the electromagnetic pulse bombs produced by the base are not inferior in the slightest.

If it is not a building that is particularly strengthened against electromagnetic pulse, it is absolutely impossible to block it, and although there are more than a dozen countries in the world that have the ability to build multiple anti-electromagnetic pulse military bases, Kenya is absolutely not ranked.

As a result, it became clear that the electromagnetic pulse bomb that exploded at an altitude of 8,000 meters created a huge electromagnetic field with a huge radius. Even the electronic equipment of the Red Alert weapon, which has excellent electromagnetic protection, also had a brief pause under the electromagnetic pulse.

However, this effect did not have any effect under the maintenance of the soldiers who had been prepared for a long time. It's the unlucky air force in Kenya, the fourth-generation fighters are okay, as for those F-4 ghost fighters, almost one-third of the fighters were dropped, and the fighters that lost power in an instant even failed to function, and the result was a straight fall from a high altitude.

Fortunately, the parachute escape device does not rely on electronic equipment control, otherwise these pilots would have been in a tragedy.

As for the Filcon, the Israelis had world-class electronic technology, and although it was affected by some influences, it did not affect the normal flight of the aircraft, and the functions of the radar and electronic equipment on it were gradually restored.

However, the tragedy is still a tragedy, when the scrambled Kenyan Air Force pilots finally regained control of the plane, the missiles fired at them by the Red Police fighters came to an end. (To be continued......)
