Chapter 364: Heavy Hammer Counterattack, Supersonic**

PS: Some people say that the laser will be reflected? Gorgeous can only be said impossible! If there is a strong water mist at sea, the energy of the laser will be dispersed and the power will be reduced.

——————

The Gwangling Tower and Gwangneung Tank played extremely well, but they were only passive defenses.

From the early hours of the morning, the sky has gradually begun to brighten, but the US-led coalition forces have not had the slightest intention of stopping the missile strikes. For this reason, Li Lan also had to start to make a posture of counterattack, lest the other party continue to be so unscrupulous.

The missile troops, for the Red Guard Corps, are a very young unit. After almost two years of construction, two separate missile brigades, with V-1 missiles as the main equipment, can already enter the actual combat stage.

This is the fourth branch of the military established by Li Lan, which is independent of the navy, land, and air force, and is directly commanded by him or the command center, and its own rank is also on par with that of the navy, land, and air force.

The V-1 missile launcher is a very important unit of high-level authority ground weapons units, and in a practical sense, this V-1 missile unit can actually be completely independent as a major missile item. It's just that the base didn't do this, but under the general icon, dozens of classifications were divided.

Any weapon in the base today that bears the title of missile is from the V-1 missile series. People are the same rice to raise hundreds of people, and it is a missile that can do hundreds of things.

Of course, the size and performance of the missiles are completely different, the appearance is basically different, the rate of fire and the range are also different, and the air mobility and guidance methods of the missiles are also different.

And as a sharp sword in Li Lan's hand, the missiles equipped by the missile troops. And not those missiles that play a defensive role. As the foundation of a future strategic armament, the Red Alert missile unit is basically equipped with offensive weapons.

V-1 missile. The longest-range is the V-1XH supersonic cruise missile, capable of cruising at Mach 1.5. Attacking targets within 3,000 kilometers has the ability to accurately guide and distinguish between real and false targets, and the means used in terminal attacks are also the highest level of science and technology in the world. When the missile is about to arrive at the target area, it will begin to change its flight trajectory, end the low-altitude cruise flight, take a high elevation angle to rise to the target, and then carry out a vertical strike in the form of a ballistic, and the fuel behind the missile will also enter afterburner combustion in this section of the lane, and the speed of the missile will also be directly increased from Mach 1.5 to more than Mach 3. Achieve the dual power of kinetic strike and warhead explosion. It is completely possible to destroy important enemy facilities hidden deep underground, such as ammunition depots or enemy headquarters.

At present, only Russia has a cruise missile comparable to this V-1XH missile in the whole world, and the United States has always lagged behind Russia in terms of missiles, and there is nothing with similar power, and those who have not been equipped with troops in the study are not counted. And China's Changjian-10 is also a very good cruise missile, with a range of up to 2,500 kilometers. But not supersonic cruise.

In order to ensure the flight speed and stealth of the missile, the V-1XH missile has a layer of stealth paint on the outer layer, and the aerodynamic shape is very consistent with aerodynamics and stealth. Ensure that when approaching the target at high speed, the distance detected by the enemy is reduced.

And this missile. At present, only the army and navy are equipped, and the current fighters of the Air Force are not suitable for carrying such huge missiles, if one day. Li Lan has a strategic bomber, this supersonic cruise missile. It can also be used as part of nuclear deterrence. Of course, now the Air Force also has its own air-launched cruise missiles. It's just that the block naturally won't have this long-range supersonic cruise missile launched from land-based and sea-based platforms so huge, and the range is only four or five hundred kilometers.

Li Lan has not tried to hit a target 3,000 kilometers away in terms of the accuracy of this supersonic cruise missile, but the error range of hitting a fixed target within 1,000 kilometers is within 10 meters, and many experiments have basically hit the red heart.

This time, as the core and main force of the counterattack, and also Li Lan's longest-range attack means at present, the V-1XH missile will be the main attack of the First Brigade of the Red Alert Missile Force.

The cost of each V-1XH missile is 20,000 base funds, and as the main counterattack and long-range strike weapon, 20,000 base funds Li Lan built with an open heart, as long as he is given a day, he can completely manufacture 144 such missiles through the base.

If the supporting launch vehicles are added, in one day, Li Lan can be equipped with a reinforced missile battalion (four vehicles in one company). It has 24 launchers and can launch a total of 72 V-1XH missiles in a mobile manner. Each launch vehicle can carry three missiles.

Therefore, as long as Li Lan is willing, or is forced to do his part, he can completely double the number of missiles dispatched by the US coalition forces. 3,000 such missiles are only 60 million base funds, and Li Lan, who now has hundreds of millions of reserve funds, can fully afford to pay them. What's more, in his missile warehouse, there are a lot of these offensive missiles.

After all, it's not just the army that wants to use these missiles, it's the navy as well. Every time a naval ship comes out, it will be filled with all kinds of missiles, especially the Aegis ship, with a missile load of 128 pieces, a large reserve warehouse is needed to meet the replenishment needs.

After receiving a clear order, the 1st Missile Brigade had already pulled the launcher out of the air-raid shelter, and the targets and parameters of the attack had already been entered.

Saudi Arabia and the U.S. Air Force Prince Sultan Air Base, Kenya Manda Bay Naval Base, Kenya, Bahrain U.S. Fifth Fleet Command, Ethiopia U.S. Air Force Drone Base on the outskirts of Albamenzi, Djibouti U.S. Special Forces Station, and Djibouti Japanese Leased Military Port. The French Foreign Legion in Djibouti is crowded with the U.S. special forces in Djibouti, so these six targets are full of the French Foreign Legion's station.

It is not practical to strike the fleet with cruise missiles, but it is still very good to hit these places.

In order to ensure that all strikes are in place, and these bases are all stationed with US air defense and missile units, so when formulating counterattack tactics, in order to achieve the best effect, it also allows the world to see that he makes a crazy counterattack. Li Lan decided to use an entire brigade of missile units, more than 100 V-1XH missile launchers, to accomplish this feat.

The main target of this counterattack was the Prince Sultan Air Base, where six Raptor fighters circled the Gulf of Aden and dropped 24 supersonic anti-radiation missiles. Li Lan also wanted to strike a blow in return, knock out this air base, and destroy the US Air Force fighters in the base.

The base was closed a decade ago, but it was reopened in recent years after months of negotiations between the United States and Saudi Arabia to increase the military presence in the region because of Mr. Lee's sudden rise in Somalia. And spent 200 million US dollars, expanded the scale of this base, added many aviation facilities, covered an area of 200,000 square meters, with 20 large hangars, four aprons.

During the recent stage of US military preparations, the number of fighters and personnel stationed at this air base has also been further expanded, and now more than 7,000 US soldiers have been stationed at this air base, and the combat unit of the air force has also increased to four wings and one F-22 squadron.

Compared with the other two US air bases in Saudi Arabia, Eskandervilich and Dhahran, Li Lan likes the Raptor fighters in this air base the most. As long as this Raptors squadron is killed, then the Americans will have to cry.

Under the camouflage of the crack generator, located at the foot of the Surud peak, the V-1XH missile launcher of the five reinforced battalions all drove out of the cave, and on the launch position that had been prepared, the three huge missile launch tubes in the rear compartment of the missile launcher were slowly raised side by side, and when the launch angle had reached 25 degrees, the jack device in the rear compartment stopped running. The closure of the missile launch tube opened, revealing a slightly sharp warhead inside.

Next to each missile launcher, more than a dozen busy missile soldiers are carrying out the most post-launch data correction and line inspection before the missile launch. The launch box is located in the middle of the launch vehicle, separating the missile from the cab of the car, and is a fully enclosed small compartment, in which various wiring and computers are the central controllers of the three missiles on the car.

Three minutes later, the missile inspection was completed, and the commander of the 1st Missile Brigade of the Red Alert Missile Unit personally gave the order for all launches.

In a short period of 30 seconds, 360 missiles were launched in three waves, each with an interval of 10 seconds. Ninety seconds after all the missiles were fired, all the soldiers of the 1st Missile Brigade were evacuated, and the missile launcher was placed here, and the camouflage effect of the crack generator was also deliberately turned off by Li Lan.

Such a strong signal immediately aroused great concern among the coalition forces.

Attacking and defending in a different position, Dempsey also reacted immediately when he received pictures from military satellites in the theater.

"Somalia is desperate, immediately modify the missile's flight trajectory, and give me to destroy these Somali missile units. Calculate the flight trajectory and data of the enemy's missiles, organize interception. ”

Under Dempsey's order, a large number of cruise missiles that were originally striking Bagua City quickly changed their flight trajectory and flew towards the Somali missile units in the eyes of these US troops. In particular, the missiles launched from the vicinity of Madagascar have all attacked the launch vehicles at the foot of Mount Surud.

At this time, Bagua City also showed a kind of interception is very difficult, in the face of those cruise missiles that changed their trajectory, it seemed that it was too late to intercept, many missiles passed directly next to Bagua City, and two minutes later, they fell directly at the foot of the Surud Peak.

The hundreds of missile launchers were destroyed by the Tomahawk missile group in an instant.

At the same time, the US military also began to organize an interception network and prepare to start intercepting hundreds of cruise missiles flying in three or six directions.

However, to the surprise of the US military, these missiles were only launched by Somalia, and all of them flew at supersonic speeds at ultra-low altitudes of 25 meters, and the speed and altitude made many interception devices ineffective. There are even a lot of missiles, which have disappeared from American radars, leaving behind a large complex surface reflection signal. (To be continued......)
