Chapter 457: No more concessions

United States, White House. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Our fighters made contact with the Soviets' aircraft carrier group." Defense Secretary Harold said: "The situation is not very good, our warplane, two wounded. ”

Four fighters, went to provoke, as a result, half of them were injured, fortunately they did not fall, otherwise, the US Air Force would have made a fool of themselves.

"What's going on?" Carter asked, "Was it the Soviets' air forces that attacked us?" ”

"Yes and no." Harold said.

"What the hell is going on?" Carter has been in a very unhappy mood lately, and it is even more uncomfortable to hear this kind of answer.

"The Soviets took off in a four-plane formation to intercept us and launch missiles, but the Soviets' missile performance was not good, and all our fighters dodged, but when they were dodging, the two fighters collided in the air." Harold said.

Collision in the air! Such a vast airspace actually collided together, which can only show how unlucky the two pilots who were flying the fighter at that time must have been! Only first-class pilots can dodge missiles, and only first-class pilots dare to fly in dense formations in the air, which is also the cause of the collision!

That plane with broken wings can actually fly back! This surprised everyone, and when the news reached McDonnell Douglas, the company's bricks couldn't believe that they had sent a team of bricks to Pakistan to conduct research.

From the point of view of fighters, the F-15 is already a quite successful model, but it has nothing to do with this ongoing war!

"In other words, we did not scare off the Soviet aircraft carrier formation, unless we made up our minds to really attack the Soviet aircraft carrier group, otherwise, they would not leave the Arabian Sea, and their carrier-based aircraft would always provide support to the Soviet Airborne Forces in Sistan Province?" Carter continued.

This series of military operations of the Soviets was obviously prepared for a long time, and their aircraft carrier acted two months ago, but it is a pity that they did not discover the conspiracy of the Soviets at that time! And now, really attacking the aircraft carriers of the Soviets? That would simply lead to a world war! What's more, now the USSR is under the guise of anti-terrorism! And the case of the attempted bombing at the site of the Moscow Olympics and the case of hostages in elementary schools in Turkmenistan gave the USSR ample excuse! Even in the United Nations, there is a group of countries that are supporting, including that-stirring France!

At this time, the United States can only make a gesture, not really do it! And there is less and less time left for oneself, and when the Soviet ground forces rush to the south, the Soviets' passage to the south of the Indian Ocean will be opened!

Now, needless to say, their own fighters have passed, even if their own aircraft carrier formation has reached that sea area, the Soviets will definitely not retreat, and the Soviets have already shown their attitude by taking off fighters to intercept their own fighters and firing unceremoniously!

"Perhaps, we can do it another way." "We have a Los Angeles-class submarine, which has already dived into the Arabian Sea, and we can have this Los Angeles-class submarine pin down the Soviets' formation, and they will have to engage in anti-submarine warfare, so that their fighter sorties will be affected," said Brzezinski, a national security adviser. ”

The aircraft carrier of the Soviets, the carrier-based fixed-wing aircraft is the MiG-23, this kind of aircraft does not have any anti-submarine capabilities, and will not conduct anti-submarine warfare, but when the aircraft carrier formation of the Soviets finds that there are submarine activities below them, they have to carry out anti-submarine warfare, and at this time, the Soviet carrier-based aircraft will definitely not be able to take off!

Anti-submarine, it is necessary to be silent, that is, the entire formation needs to sail at low speed, so that the submarine below can be detected with sonar! And to take off the carrier-based aircraft, it is necessary to move forward at full speed to be able to release the carrier-based aircraft in the slip-jump take-off method of the pit father!

And the catapult take-off of the United States is not needed, unless it is a heavy Tomcat taking off with a full load, and the other ********, even if the aircraft carrier does not move, the catapult has enough power, just to be more secure, they will let the warship accelerate.

"However, this would put our submarine at risk." Secretary of Defense Harold said.

Submarines, underwater ghosts, however, it is only a link on all combat weapons systems, not the main force, the submarine wolf pack warfare of the Germans in the Atlantic during World War II, which was quickly crushed by the Allied escort warships, is an example. And now, the ships of the Soviets, anti-submarine capabilities are also quite powerful. Isn't it looking for death to let one of your own Los Angeles-class people go over to provoke?

"Of course it's not dangerous, our Los Angeles class, it's the newest nuclear submarine, and when it's sailing at low speed, it can completely blend into the background noise of the sea, and it won't be detected by the Soviets at all. We are in the Atlantic, having already tracked the SSBN many times, and they did not react at all. Now, wouldn't it be better for us to conduct a submarine warfare exercise against Soviet aircraft carriers? Moreover, as long as it is delayed for another day, our aircraft carrier formation will be able to arrive at the scene. ”

Hearing this, Harold nodded, this is true, in one day, his own side should be able to survive, and as long as the submarines are entangled, the Soviet aircraft carrier formation will definitely not be able to provide ground support anymore.

"Stan, how is the battle we launched against the Soviets by the Iranian locals going?" Carter asked the director of the CIA on the side that the CIA was behind the scenes.

"Two hours ago, at the four main mountain passes, we attacked, however, they were all repulsed by the Soviets, who even used bayonets for white-knuckle warfare." "Those Iranians, at the sight of the bayonets, were intimidated and lost a dozen of our scouts in vain," Stan said. ”

"Bayonets? That is, the ammunition of the Soviets is gone, and this is a chance! Carter said: "Since those Iranian natives are so cowardly, let's use our own troops and disguise ourselves as mercenaries!" ”

Use your own troops? This made everyone stunned: "Mr. President, will such a direct conflict with the Soviets lead to a world war?" ”

"No, the Soviets will not think it is us, they are just mercenaries." Carter said.

The purpose of the Soviets this time is to open up the passage to the south, and it is definitely not the Third World War! The high-level strategic vision of the Soviets is very unique, and a world war will not do the Soviets any good.

And you can't back down anymore! The situation in the Far East is rotten, and if the advantage in the Middle East is lost again, then what will it have?

Speaking of which, it's really ironic that we are doing this just to buy time for the Iranians! When the Iranians came to their senses and fought with the Soviets, the scene was pleasing to the eye. (To be continued.) )
