Chapter 82 The Air Force of the Southern Military Region is dispatched

At the same time, a large number of aircraft, waiting at the Basra airbase, began to take off in batches.

In order to execute a perfect bombing, it is very important to plan in advance, especially because there are no AWACS aircraft in the air.

Basra airbase is a large airbase with one MiG-21, two MiG-23s, and two Su-20s. There is no stationing of MiG-25. (A brigade has three squadrons, each squadron has four aircraft, so a brigade has twelve aircraft.) )

In addition to this, there are helicopters, most of which are Mi-24 Hind gunships.

Today, the airbase carried out the first high-intensity operational plan

Due to the level of training, the air base will definitely not have the same intensity of sorties as Israel, and during the initial air battle, the Israeli Air Force flew back, got off the plane to pee, waited for the missiles to be hung up, and then took off to fight. And Iraq's air force, being able to make two sorties in a row in one day is already absolutely high-intensity.

Therefore, Zhang Feng divided this air force into two batches, each of which consisted of a squadron of MiG-21, a squadron of MiG-23 and a squadron of Su-20, a total of 28 aircraft.

The MiG-21 of the formation and the MiG-23 of a squadron are responsible for air defense and take away air supremacy, although there is a plan to attack the east and west, it is still necessary to prevent Iranian ghost fighters from making trouble, if the Tomcat comes, it will also have a fight with the Tomcat, this is a death order.

However, this possibility is very small.

Through Arslan's experience, everyone knows that although the tomcat is difficult to deal with, it is not completely without a method. Although, there may be a big price to pay.

The two squadrons of MiG-23 and Su-20 assume the main force of ground attack, although the MiG-23 is an air superiority fighter, but it also has a good ground attack capability and a large bomb load. On par with the Su-20.

After two waves of air force formations bombed the Iranian army, the next step was to sweep up the tail end of the helicopter gunships, and the difficult targets left behind by them had to be cleared.

In the end, the reserves will be dispatched and will be surrounded and annihilated by the dizzy Iranian army!

Zhang Feng's tone is not small, this time, if all the Iranian assault forces can be annihilated, it will definitely be a big victory.

As the leader of the MiG-23 escort squadron, Arslan took off on time.

Looking behind him, one plane after another had already taken off one by one, and after forming a formation over the base, they entered a low altitude.

This is a very spectacular sight, except for the first day of the war, when the air force was dispatched in large numbers to bomb various strategic targets in Iran, the rest of the time, the Iraqi air force has hardly achieved anything.

It is very rare for a large group of planes to take off and go out together.

This time, the Southern Military Region simply went out with all its might, and even the commander of the military region rarely had this kind of courage.

Arslan knew that the main operation of the Air Force was personally planned by His Excellency Qusay, and from the take-off of the formation to the determination of the route, it was full of the painstaking efforts of the base commander and His Excellency Qusay.

This time, we must fight a beautiful battle and let the Air Force raise its head among other branches of the military!

Although it was a large group of more than 20 aircraft, they maintained radio silence, and only the orders from the ground radar station were being issued one by one.

Large early warning radars deployed near the border have scanned the surrounding airspace and are sure that there are no Iranian planes moving nearby, and they have all rushed to the skies over Tehran.

Arslan took the lead, pressed the bar, pushed the MiG-23 into a low altitude, and the wing remained in the position of the minimum sweep angle.

Following him, the MiG-21, MiG-23, Su-20, all entered the low altitude.

They flew towards their intended destination: the Karon River on the west side of Abbadam.

During the period of the Bavilie dynasty, the Iranian Air Force had already ordered several airborne early warning aircraft from the United States, as well as the second batch of Tomcat fighters, but unfortunately, the planes were not delivered, the Islamic Revolution took place, the honeymoon between Iran and the United States ended, Khomeini openly stated that the US imperialism was the Great Satan, the Soviet Union was the Little Satan, and the planes of Satan would naturally not be provided to Iran.

Therefore, the Iranian Air Force does not have AWACS aircraft, so both sides mainly rely on ground-based radars for air defense.

The ground radar has one of the biggest shortcomings, it cannot detect low-altitude aircraft, because the ground is an arc, and low-altitude aircraft will make the radar beam unable to detect, so ultra-low-altitude flight is an important means of penetrating defense.

Ultra-low-altitude flight, a combination of courage and technology!

However, due to training problems, it is impossible for the Iraqi Air Force to reduce to the same altitude as when the Israeli Air Force attacked the nuclear reactor, and they all fly at a low altitude of 100 meters, and even so, some of the pilots are already mentally stressed.

In the military district headquarters, it was also very nervous at this time.

On the huge sand table, the situation of friend and foe is clear at a glance.

After a bitter battle in the middle of the night, the 10th Panzer Division began an orderly retreat, and they resisted the attack of the frenzied Iranian army, inflicting partial losses, which were somewhat greater than expected.

However, they successfully completed the task of luring the enemy, and now, having won the Iranian army, whose morale is at an all-time high, they are chasing the 10th Panzer Division.

The 10th Panzer Division, which was responsible for several companies of tanks behind the palace, suffered heavy losses.

However, the Iranian army behind has entered the countdown to its demise.

This was the first "major" victory for the Iranians, who relieved Abadan and began a "counteroffensive". They didn't realize it in the slightest that it was just a trap.

On the banks of the Karen, the 11th Special Brigade, the 96th Infantry Brigade and the 42nd Infantry Division, a huge defensive line has been formed, and a perfect encirclement has been formed. The 60th Panzer Division is on one side, ready to outflank from the flank, just waiting for the Iranian army to enter the encirclement, outflank the opponent's rear road, and then, completely annihilate the opponent!

As long as the Air Force can arrive on time, it will be able to eat the tens of thousands of Iranians in one go at the minimum cost, so that Khomeini's flesh will hurt.

There has always been a nasty MiG plane in the sky to reconnoitre, but the Iranian army on the ground did not care about the plane at all, if it were not for the direct air defense unit to stay on the side of the Bahamshar River to take charge of the air defense of the headquarters, they would have been able to kill the plane immediately.

They don't know that what is decisive about the war situation today is this reconnaissance plane, and the coordination between the air force and the army is very important, and this reconnaissance plane has been sending intelligence on the ground forces back to the headquarters to coordinate the arrival time of the air force.

"Ready, the group will arrive in three minutes, the divisional artillery units will prepare their artillery fire, cut off the pursuit of the Iranians, and welcome our 10th Panzer Division." Finally, the order for a general offensive was to be given.

Since the Iranian tanks behind the 10th Panzer Division were following too closely, if they wanted to get out of the way, they would use one method: the artillery fire would cover the opponent's vanguard and cut them off.

Artillery, it was for the 10th Panzer Division to wipe the ass.
