943 missile warfare

"Target parameters stapled complete, number of launches: 3, launch countdown ......" The non-commissioned officer of the cruise missile brigade of the Rocket Forces is meticulously carrying out the launch procedure. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The land-based road-mobile Changjian missile is a triple assembly, which is generally equipped with 18 launch vehicles, as well as ammunition vehicles, maintenance vehicles, radar vehicles, and command vehicles. One salvo of a cruise missile brigade is enough to strike at 54 targets of the enemy. Of course, the main reason for the large number of equipment of the Datang Rocket Force is its extremely high accuracy, thanks to satellite positioning, its error can reach less than 20 meters, and the actual rocket force has not exceeded 10 meters in the test of live ammunition.

Along with the cruise missile troops, the Dongfeng-15 short-range surface-to-surface missile, which was also deployed to the Netherlands, was accompanied by the attack of the cruise missile unit, and after mastering the technology of ballistic missiles, Datang did not equip the troops with a large number of short-range tactical surface-to-surface missiles for a long time, mainly because he was not very satisfied with the early technology. After a lot of investment and research and development, Datang finally obtained a surface-to-surface missile with a range of more than 500 kilometers, composite guidance, and excellent accuracy, that is, the DF-15. Depending on the combat mission, ground-penetrating warheads, submunitor warheads, etc., can also be used.

With a single shot of three missile brigades of the Rocket Army, more than a hundred missiles could be fired at England. Although the cost of its attack is not low, it is easy to worry and hassle, and the deterrence of the enemy may be better than a large-scale bombing of aircraft groups from a certain point of view.

Compared with the means used by Nazi Germany to bomb Britain in World War II, Datang's actions are still much more "restrained" in nature. The focus of the Tang attack was still on the main British political and military facilities, with the industrial area being the top priority, but compared to the bombing of France and Poland, the missile warfare added British transportation facilities as targets.

A striking example of this is the missile's target of a bridge over the River Thames and the main railway line connecting the industrial city of north-central Britain to London. To deal with relatively hard targets such as bridges, use ground-penetrating warheads; For targets such as railways, it is more indestructive, using sub-warheads, which may not completely explode and destroy the rails after falling on the ground, but anyone who approaches them may trigger the bullets, causing secondary explosion damage.

Datang also does not have so much money to allow three missile brigades to fight missiles every day, even if it is a slightly cheaper cruise missile, its cost is tens of thousands of Tang Yuan, considering the extremely high value of Tang Yuan, this number is also very amazing, after all, the price of a supersonic fighter such as J-6 is only more than 70,000 Tang Yuan.

The first missile war against England frightened the British, so to speak. First of all, the small torpedo boats of the British who were trembling in the coastal waters saw the fires flying in the sky and immediately reported them to the country, and then the radar station received a special signal, but soon the radar station lost tracking the target.

In fact, a few minutes later, this radar station also became the first victim of Datang's missile war, and was directly blown up by missiles. Many Britons were on the ground watching the "shooting stars" streak across the sky in confusion, they didn't know what they were, but they could feel the smell of destruction.

The first target to be bombed in London was a boot camp with more than 6,000 recruits, many of whom were watching the excitement when the missiles were dropped, unaware of the danger coming. And the instructor of the British army did not do his job well and did not do a good job of guiding his recruits to take refuge, although even if he did, the effect may not be good.

The violent explosion caused by a cruise missile swept off about three-fifths of the temporary buildings of the training camp, and the explosion and the shock wave caused even more serious damage, directly inflicting huge losses on the British recruits who were not far from the missile landing site. Hundreds of people were killed and injured on the spot, and the ensuing fire frightened many British recruits.

A number of other British military facilities were also hit, the more typical ones were several military airfields, and the Datang Rocket Force undertook the task of destroying enemy airfields and making it difficult for the enemy to take off and land, and this task was also relatively successful. Many of the shells at the four airfields were attacked by sub-shells and were temporarily scrapped. Although the British Spitfire could temporarily take off on the road, it was not a simple matter to transfer it from the hangar and then transfer it to the road.

So the first wave of missile warfare was actually more about paralyzing the defense capability of the British, so as to prepare for more bomber forces of the Air Force in the future.

Only half an hour after the missile attack, a large number of bombers from the Datang Air Force visited the British Isles, but they did not overtake multiple targets, and in addition to London, there were several important industrial cities in Britain.

This kind of attack routine has been used many times by the Tang Air Force and the Rocket Force, and Britain's industrial capacity is being seriously weakened, and the British do not have a very good way to deal with it. The British also wanted to try to send fighters to fly across the channel to attack the Netherlands, but in fact, only on the sea, they would encounter the carrier-based fighters of the Tang Naval Aviation, and these air battles were often one-sided battles, and the British fighters were fiercely educated.

Datang is applying the same model to the heads of Spain, France, Italy, Germany, and Russia, and although the strength and weakness are different, this set of combat methods aimed at striking at the war potential is rapidly playing its role. For example, Britain originally sent 1 million troops to France to help the French and German armies attack the Tang army in the Netherlands and Belgium. But preparing supplies for an army of millions of people is not a simple matter. This worldwide bombing campaign of the Tang Dynasty caused Britain's logistics to suffer a severe blow. Britain had destroyed a lot of their weapons and equipment, and they feared that with more than half of their military factories already bombed and difficult to quickly resume production, Britain would not be able to provide enough equipment and ammunition for the troops on the front line. As for medicine and other types of supplies, the UK's replenishment capacity has also become very low.

After all, unlike the situation that Datang has been preparing for war, although Europe has taken the initiative to oppose Datang, it is not ready to go to war with Datang, and even some people think that war with Datang is only a theoretical possibility, and the debate within the EU is very fierce about how the war will be carried out, and there is no dominant opinion, which brings the main trouble is that Britain and other countries are not fully prepared for the war, and after the industry is hit, it is even more cramped.
