Surrounded by a pitch black night sky, and below was a dark earth, with only four D-301M engines roaring and the instrument lights flashing in the cockpit, the young Iraqi pilot, who was working as a transport plane in his hands, flying in full strict accordance with the instruments. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo≦≧

The tall captain said: "Pay attention to the altitude, we are about to enter Syrian airspace." ”

When recruiting pilots in the Air Force, all people are treated equally, within a few years of studying in the aviation school, the quality of personnel will be different, and the strict elimination rate makes many people have to give up the opportunity to fly into the blue sky, and turn to the study of ground service, and after that, the test again and again, the experience again and again, will make them finally become the pride of the blue sky.

After learning the primary and intermediate training planes, the personnel will face a diversion, down to various units, some people, assigned to the field troops, the best grades, assigned to the fighter squadron, become the most envied fighter pilot among all the pilots, almost, will be assigned to the attack aircraft squadron, unable to make all kinds of difficult flight maneuvers in the sky, can only undertake the task of bomb trucks, risking great danger to bomb the enemy's base.

And the worst ones, who cannot fly fast combat aircraft, just fly logistics aircraft, for example, transport aircraft!

However, the tall captain was not assigned to fly a transport plane because of his bad grades, and his grades were the best among the beginner and middle planes, but his height limited him from flying combat planes. ≦≧

Similar to the armored corps, the fighter also has a height limit, the cockpit space of the fighter is small, and the tall pilot, maybe the head is on the cockpit, and the legs are bent and cannot flexibly step on the rudder, in this case, it is very dangerous to fly the fighter, not to mention the combat mission. There are difficulties in supporting flight missions. So, the tall captain had to say goodbye to his most desired fighter flight and became a pilot of a transport plane, and after two years of flying, became a captain.

The captain glanced out of the cabin, and although he couldn't see anything in the dark night sky, he knew it. On his side of the plane, two F-20 fighters were escorting.

In their own airspace, they all turned on the navigation lights, and he could see the presence of fighters, but after entering the Syrian airspace, they turned off all the navigation lights outside. ≦≧

Just now, they had their last call. Then. Keeping the radio silent, the captain knew that the pilot of the F-20 flying on the side of his plane was his classmate in the aviation school, and if it wasn't for his own height, he would definitely have a record of shooting down enemy planes by now!

Although Major General Manav said that they are very welcome to enter Syrian airspace, however. Obviously, Major General Manaf will not be able to fully control the Syrian Air Force, and God knows if there will be people loyal to Riffat down there, so the Iraqi Air Force will not take any chances.

On the Iraqi side, a Y-10 modified pre-jing aircraft is flying, monitoring movements in Syrian airspace. And two F-20 fighters. Carrying medium-range Sparrow and Mozu anti-spoke shè missiles, it is ready to strike at possible ground anti-aircraft missiles and air fighters at any time to protect the safety of transport aircraft.

The Il-76 transport plane, but President Qusay spent a lot of effort to get it, and there must be no mistakes! These are the exact words of the commander of the Air Force.

The flight was going well, and following the pre-set route, they had already seen one of the runway lights on the airport. ≦≧

The captain turned on the corresponding channel, which was the contact information for Manaf.

"All-God is great, the eagle asks for landing."

"Yes, the main runway has been emptied."

After receiving the message from the ground, the pilot on the left began to skillfully retract the middle throttle slowly, and at the same time, the cāo lever in his hand slowly pushed forward, pedaled the rudder, and the huge Il-76 slowly dived down towards the runway.

The lights were getting closer and lower, and finally, there was a sharp sound from the tail, four low-pressure tires on each side, already touching the ground.

After sliding for dozens of meters, the two rows of low-pressure tires in front of him also touched the ground.

Finally, the plane came to a standstill, and the tail cargo door began to fall slowly.

"Quick, gather your troops, and get ready for battle at once. ≦≧" Hades shouted, and at the same time, the desert leopard, slowly driving down from the tail hatch, this time, came to Syrian soil, they came to fight!

Manaf was on the tower, looking at the Iraqi troops who jumped out of the tail of the cabin, and he actually felt in a trance, as if they had come to occupy this place, to invade this place. He shook his head, pushing the thought out of his mind.

More than two dozen large transport planes landed, unloaded personnel and equipment, and then took off and returned to Iraq.

"General Manav, the 67th Airborne Regiment has been ordered to arrive to help you guard the airfield and wait for a counteroffensive after dawn." The commander of the 67th Airborne Regiment, Abed, came to the tower and said to Manav.

"Thank you very much, with your arrival, this base of ours can withstand the attack of the rebels." Manav asked, "What about your Marines?" Didn't they come together? ”

Marine corps? Abed smiled apologetically, the Marine Corps planes were the first to land, and by the time they landed, they had long since lost sight of Hades, only a few wheeled infantry fighting vehicles. ≦≧ maybe, the other party is along the road and is preparing to counterattack Damascus, Hades guy, everyone knows that he is bold.

Abed was only half right.

After Hades landed, he immediately gathered his marines, and this time, they came with a total of sixteen desert leopard infantry fighting vehicles, a team of three hundred people. Due to the limited capacity and the fact that the Desert Leopards had only begun to be equipped, the Marines brought only sixteen tanks this time, which accounted for eight Il-76 transport aircraft.

Leaving two hundred men and six tanks at the airbase, Hades took ten tanks and drove onto the road.

On Syrian soil, they do not have all kinds of advanced means of reconnaissance, although there is information from the personnel inside Damascus that the armored forces have been dispatched, but they do not know how many armored forces of the other side have been dispatched and where they have moved.

So, Hades took ten battlefields and drove on the necessary route from Damascus to the air base, hoping to gain something.

Detect the enemy's situation, confirm the size of the opponent, and the estimated time of arrival, and provide a basis for the action plan of your own troops behind.

In the night vision device, the dark road, but it looks very clear, because the production line of Sweden's infrared night vision device has been built in Iraq, therefore, Iraq's equipment, has begun to gradually promote the use of infrared night vision devices, desert leopards are no exception, all installed in Iraq's own infrared night vision devices.

In this kind of dark night, on this kind of open road, without driving lights, it is a very refreshing thing to move quickly in the dark, and Hades feels the feeling of a battlefield that he has not seen for a long time, and he is familiar again.

One of the considerable advantages of wheeled combat vehicles is their speed! The tracked combat vehicle will never reach a speed of 100 kilometers per hour due to the drag of the tracks, and even the current speed of 70 kilometers per hour is impossible.

The armored brigade of the 4th Panzer Division, with eighty T-55 tanks, was marching on the road, and in order to conceal their whereabouts and avoid detection by possible reconnaissance aircraft in the sky, they did not turn on their headlights, but used their infrared devices: infrared headlights.

The T-55 tanks were moving at a speed of more than 30 kilometers per hour, and they were only more than 40 kilometers away from the air base, and there were still more than two hours before dawn.

So, they can take advantage of the darkness and get to the airbase and quickly resolve the battle there.

In the sky, airplanes are the natural enemies of tanks, especially in that air base, equipped with the Gazelle helicopter introduced by Syria, the kind of helicopter carried by the Hoult anti-tank missile, which can cause great damage to the armored troops, in the battle of the Golan Heights, the Gazelle helicopter created many examples of destroying the tank.

They didn't know that just in front of them, there was already another army that was about to meet them in a narrow way.

Suddenly, many bright spots appeared on the dark green screen of the infrared night vision device, and those bright spots were like the eyes of a wolf in the dark, which was the infrared headlight of the T-55 tank!

In order to drive and fight at night, the T-55 tank is equipped with a total of three sets of night vision devices: the ФГ-100 infrared headlight and the tbh-2 infrared observation periscope installed on the right side of the upper armor plate in front of the hull, which can provide the driver with a night observation capability of about 60 meters, which is enough for the driver to drive safely at night; The OY-3 infrared searchlight and the TKH-1 infrared periscope installed in front of the commander's control tower can provide the commander with a night observation capability of about 300 meters, allowing the commander to observe the situation within 300 meters; The Л-2 infrared searchlight and the tПk-1-22-11 night vision scope mounted on the right side of the gun provide the gun commander with 800 meters of night observation capability, allowing the gun commander to use it as a tank gun at night to attack.

Now, it is the marching stage, so most of the tanks only turn on the driver's infrared light, and a few turn on the commander's infrared searchlight to scan the surrounding situation.

In any case, they would not have spotted the Iraqi wheeled combat vehicles a thousand and eighteen hundred meters in front.

The infrared imaging device will not have such a long distance, but the other party's infrared headlights are like flashlights shining in the dark, so that Hades's reconnaissance team has already discovered them.
