It's still night, and attacking at night is always a very difficult task, especially since your own air attack force, which has the most advantage, cannot give full play to its combat effectiveness at night. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Instead of attacking at night, wait until dawn to act! When the time comes, those helicopter gunships of the air assault division will bring a death blow to the Iraqi Army, as well as A-10 attack aircraft, which are even more specialized anti-tank weapons!

And after a night of rushing, the tank troops of the Soviets are also in a state of exhaustion, their fuel is limited, they definitely need to refuel in the desert, and when this time, their own attack aircraft group appears, bringing the other side the rain of death! Moreover, the Iraqi Air Force is beyond the reach of the whip, and it cannot take into account the depths of the Saudi desert at all, and yesterday's battle has shown that the strength of its own air force is still pressing the other side!

Hearing Powell's words, William Jr. frowned, but still nodded: "Okay, then we will arrange according to this tactic, but our ground troops must also be ready, just in the eastern desert of Riyadh, arrange a defensive line, if the Iraqi armored group raids, we must eliminate them in the desert and protect the safety of our ally's capital!"

Saudi Arabia has no danger to defend, there is desert everywhere, and the tanks that are racing in the desert are easy to cross the defense line and come to attack Riyadh, and when it sent troops, the United States was patting its chest and wanted to protect the safety of Saudi Arabia!

"According to the report, our F-117A Nighthawk formation has returned and is refueling in the scheduled airspace, and the bombs they dropped have all hit the target, and President Saddam Hussein, who is suspected to be delivering a national address in the Baghdad television building, has also been killed, and is now being confirmed." At this moment, another piece of good news was obtained, which made William Jr. extremely excited.

The sortie of stealth planes works quite well! During the day, so many planes were dispatched, and Baghdad was not bombed, and now, a few stealth planes, the problem is solved!

"Yes, let them return to the ship and continue to prepare for the bombing tomorrow night." William Jr. said: "With the timing right, they should be able to go out twice in a night. ”

Today's only experimental bombing has confirmed the combat capability of this aircraft, and if it is dispatched after dark, it will definitely be able to bomb twice in one night!

Time is passing little by little, and the eastern sky is slowly turning white.

In the Prince Sultan Air Base, a large number of aircraft groups have begun to prepare for takeoff, and the attack effect of the Nighthawk attack aircraft last night has given them a lot of encouragement, and the Nighthawk destroyed the Iraqi air defense hub last night, and today's bombing will be more smooth!

And north of Riyadh, at a distance of 300 kilometers, an E-3 AWACS aircraft is flying at cruising altitude, and next to it, four F-15 fighters of the Saudi Air Force are escorting.

This plane has been on duty for more than 10 hours since it took off yesterday afternoon, and the entire crew is in a state of extreme exhaustion, and the next AWACS plane will take off in half an hour to assume the command task of attacking again.

Although there was still half an hour left, the crew cheered up and carefully observed their radar screen, for them, at this moment, they could not relax at all!

In the middle of the night yesterday, the Iraqi armored battle group crossed the border and came all the way in the direction of Riyadh, although the early warning information was one after another, the Middle East Command did not mobilize troops to intercept it.

The Iraqi army, which traveled about 300 kilometers, disappeared.

Yes, it's gone! The AN/APY-1 S-band pulse Doppler radar used by the E-3 early warning aircraft was originally designed to detect air targets, using a flat slit radar, which can eliminate the influence of ground clutter, detect ultra-low-altitude aircraft, and at the same time, can also detect vehicles moving on the ground.

Yes, it's a moving vehicle! The inherent disadvantage of radar detected according to the Doppler principle is that it will treat all aircraft without radial speed as clutter filtering, which is also a way to unlock in air combat, and now, once the vehicle on the ground stops, it will be filtered out as ground clutter and cannot be displayed!

This is also very simple, it shows that this army in Iraq is stopping to refuel! The coordinates of the target are sent to the Prince Sultan airbase in the rear and let the air power there strike!

It is precisely because the E-3 early warning aircraft has this defect that in later generations, after the E-3 was put into service, the Americans intensively developed the E-8 "United Star" joint surveillance target attack radar system aircraft, which is equipped with a 12-meter-long radar cabin under the fuselage, which has a powerful AN/APY-3 multi-mode side-view phased array I-band electronically scanning synthetic aperture radar, and uses the synthetic aperture function to locate, detect and track the ground stationary or moving targets in all weather combat management. Command and control. In the Gulf War in later generations, this E-8 aircraft played a good role.

The Iraqi Air Force, on the other hand, obviously does not have the ability to fight at night, and last night it was calm and nothing happened, only its own Nighthawk attack planes were dispatched, but they did not disturb the Iraqi air defense system at all.

Now, the sky is about to dawn, will the fighters in the Iraqi air base be dispatched?

On the radar screen, the airspace was clear and there was nothing.

The radar antenna was still spinning at 6 revolutions per minute, and in the midst of this boredom, a radar operator suddenly swept to the corner of the screen, and four targets appeared!

High altitude and high speed! The speed of these four targets exceeded Mach 2, and the height also exceeded 20,000 meters!

"Discover the Iraqi MiG-25, the distance is four hundred, the direction is 030, intercept it immediately!" The order of the radar operator quickly descended to the escorting formation of Saudi Air Force fighters.

"Blue Shark Squadron Receive." Piloting the F-15 fighter, Squadron Leader Mohammed Shaid pushed the control stick and flew towards the east with his wingman!

Iraqis with MiG-25 fighters imported from the USSR! If this kind of fighter flies to a high altitude, there is no solution for its own side, but as an escort fighter, it must be indomitable.

Moreover, the Iraqis are still 400 kilometers away, and their biggest goal is to expel them in the past!

"At a distance of four hundred kilometers, continue to climb high, have the right bearings, prepare the missile launch program." And here, the MiG-25 fighter is also preparing for the final attack! (To be continued.) )
