Chapter 45: Kill the Cobra!
Seeing the off-road vehicles on the ground speeding at a high speed, the two cobras in the sky suddenly separated, one looking for the fleeing Iraqi soldiers, and the other following the two trucks.
The pilot pressed down on the longitudinal rod, the agile cobra lowered its head, and the huge rotors blew the ground into a cloud of weeds, like a falcon, pounced on its own food.
The weapons crew in the front row connected the fire control system to the rocket.
Compared with the expensive "Tao" anti-tank missile, the cost of uncontrolled rockets is much lower.
The "Tao" anti-tank missile is worth $150,000 a piece, which is still the internal price of the friendly relationship with the United States during the Paveile Dynasty, and it is still worth the money against armored targets, such as the chieftain of more than $3 million, and it is a bit of a waste to deal with off-road trucks.
In contrast, the use of uncontrolled rockets is not only cheap, but also indescribably effective. From the sky, it's simply pleasing to the eye.
Looking at the straight ruts, the weapons cutter skillfully opened the rocket's launch safe.
The pilot behind pressed down the nose of the plane, only to see a flash of fire under the short wing on the right side of the cobra, and more than a dozen rockets, so they scrambled out of the rocket launch nest and rushed towards the two off-road vehicles on the ground.
In just two seconds, you can see rockets blooming everywhere.
Hades looked at the mirrors on both sides, and the cobra inside had already begun to spit out tongues of fire.
What he fears most is that the Cobra will use missiles against him, so he drives along the rut "in a regular manner", although it is fast, but there are traces to follow.
Finally, the Cobra fired a rocket.
Hades gritted his teeth and shook his hands violently, squeezing the steering wheel vigorously.
The front wheels turned sharply to the left, pressed to the huge hurdle, the speed was relatively fast, with the help of a strong impact, the 6*6 full-drive off-road truck, suddenly drove away from the route just now, into the swamp.
The front wheel flew very high, and just when Hades thought it was going to overturn, the front wheel fell to the ground again, and Hades was so upturned that his butt was removed from the seat, and his hands were still firmly holding the steering wheel, and the accelerator was still pressing hard under his feet, not daring to release.
The American product is good, the huge shock spring was not crushed, the front of the car just bumped and ran again.
"Boom, boom." At this time, the rocket will just where he was, ploughing into the ground.
The second off-road vehicle in the rear did not have time to react and was already buried in the fire.
The rocket does not have a control system, so the accuracy is not great, but this is also one of its advantages, the use of multiple rockets, you can effectively control a large area, especially multiple rocket launchers, to cover the enemy's fire, it is simply the best choice.
Just as the cobra was playing a game of cat and mouse, another cobra had already begun to search the reeds.
Although the missiles were fired at a distance, all the pilots had a fairly good eyesight, and they had seen that several people jumped out of off-road trucks and hid in the reeds.
Not one of them can escape, they all have to die!
The front weapon crew connected the M61A1 "Vulcan" airborne aircraft gun under the nose, which is a 20 mm caliber Gatling 6-barreled gun developed by General Dynamics, and when fired, the 6 barrels rotate in turn to increase the rate of fire. It can fire 6,000 rounds of standard M50 ammunition per minute, and it has a lot of firepower, which is standard equipment for almost all American fighters.
The dense rain of bullets is the arrival of death!
The weapon operator adjusted the rate of fire to 4,000 rounds, so that it could be ensured that in the rapid launch, the chain of the bullet would break due to excessive tension and cause the shell to jam, which was also a common problem of Vulcan, and it was not solved until the later improvement was made to feed the drum.
There was no reaction in the reeds ahead, but the two people on the cobra knew that the enemy was hiding inside.
Since they don't come out, force them out.
The weapon wheather pressed the button and began to spin the cannon.
Due to the Vulcan's high rate of fire, the human ear could not distinguish the interval between the two shots, which sounded a bit like a heavy concrete boring machine.
Suddenly, the reeds in front were shattered, and there were traces of bullets sweeping everywhere.
Unfortunately, it did not meet his expectations, he thought that during his shooting, there would be enemies who could not suppress their fears, stood up and ran away, and he liked this feeling the most, in the back, following the other side, mercilessly shooting them down like wheat harvesting.
One more time! He pressed the button again.
Zhang Feng was very nervous and very excited, the helicopter was a few hundred meters away from him, as long as he launched the SAM-7, he would definitely be able to take the other party down.
But no, because as soon as he stood up and didn't wait to carry the missile, he would be beaten into a sieve.
The tentative firepower just now swept a soldier, and the 20-mm high-explosive shell mercilessly broke his thigh, but the soldier was motionless and didn't even make a sound, which moved Zhang Feng for a while.
With such soldiers, you will definitely be able to win the battle!
He knows that he only has one chance, and if he doesn't grasp it well, then his team members will have to follow him to death.
Another strafing came in, and luckily no one was hurt.
The weapon crew on the cobra wondered, could it really be his own delusion? Or is the other party already slipping away quickly along the reeds?
The pilot carefully lowered the altitude and circled over the reeds, which the rotors blew from side to side, still finding nothing.
I'm going to have to let you go for now, damn Iraqis.
The two men on the Cobra knew that they did not have much time, because the battle ahead was still waiting for them, and they had to go to support the battle of the armored division that had run out of fuel, to get them out of danger, and wait until the evening, when the CH-47 helicopter brought them ammunition and fuel urgently, so that they could turn the corner.
The pilot slammed his and flew east.
Well, here's your chance!
Zhang Feng was waiting for this opportunity.
Now, the sun in the west was casting its last rays of afterglow, and Zhang Feng stood up violently under the imprint of the setting sun.
With the cover of sunlight, it is difficult for even the helicopter to the east to detect something wrong, and to find itself quickly.
What's more, it has already flown back, leaving the direction of the tail to itself, unless he has a rear eye that can penetrate the rear of the fuselage, otherwise, it will definitely not find itself.
After Zhang Feng stood up, he quickly picked up the SAM-7, turned on the power, and aimed visually, the familiar "drip" sound came from the earphones, and he pressed the launch button.
A puff of smoke came out of the launch canister, and the Sam-7, who was bearing Zhang Feng's anger, flew out of the launch canister and flew towards the returning Cobra.
In the military reform, the new three strikes and three defenses mentioned the army's journey, Zhang Feng was born in a special forces, and he also has a lot of knowledge and theories on how to fight armed helicopters.
Infantry against helicopters, basically the odds of victory are very small, in the open area, helicopters are the world of infantry, so to speak, armed helicopters are born to restrain infantry.
However, it is not impossible for infantry to fight helicopter gunships, and in Afghanistan, the Taliban often use rocket launchers to attack helicopters, and the most critical part of it is to hide and catch the opponent by surprise.
An uncontrolled rocket launcher can do it, let alone an anti-aircraft missile. Helicopters are flexible and flexible, which is relative to the infantry on the ground, no matter how high its overload is, it is not as agile as fighters, and even fighters at low altitudes will be shot down by shoulder-fired missiles, let alone helicopter gunships.
Suffice it to say that as long as the infantry had the opportunity to launch portable anti-aircraft missiles, the helicopter gunships simply did not have the ability to get rid of it.
"Boom!" A beautiful spark appeared in the sky, and the cobra was hit and exploded in the air.
The SAM-7 is an infrared-guided missile, and the heat source of the two turboshaft engines on the top of the Cobra has become the most obvious sign, and the high-explosive warhead of the SAM-7 is inserted into the engine at once, directly shattering the engine, and the aviation fuel leaks, causing an explosion.
The two members of the Cobra never dreamed that they were the only ones who were looking for trouble with each other, and in a hurry, they let go of this group of Iraqi remnants, but they didn't expect that the other party actually had anti-aircraft missiles!
You must know that anti-aircraft missiles are not equipped with a random unit, even the 35th armored brigade on the opposite side is only accompanied by a few small-caliber self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery vehicles.
