Chapter 1133: Minsk Sortie (Gal. 5)
When the ground can't solve it, it can be solved in the air! This was originally the way of fighting in the West, but now it has completely become the tactics of the Iraqi army!
Call for air support! Every day, Su-25 attack aircraft and Hind helicopters come to support! And, from time to time, there are Soviet aircraft carriers that take off from the sea!
"Send the target coordinates. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" shouted the regimental commander.
Call for air support, you have to strike with precision! In the past, people on the ground were equipped with laser emitting devices, which fired lasers at targets and reflected them into the sky to guide laser-guided bombs carried by fighter planes.
And now, it's even simpler, just send the target coordinates!
With the continuous coverage of the global positioning system, it is also widely used in the army, and the Iraqi system is a complete copy of the Soviet system, through the C3I system, you can send signals to the fighters, transmit the coordinates, and then, the fighters in the air, will drop cheap precision-guided bombs according to the target data.
Soon, a few minutes later, there was a rumbling sound in the sky, and a Su-25 attack aircraft had already flown over!
Jews, let you taste the gift of Iraq! The pilot pressed the button, and a joint attack ammunition fell. And following behind, several Hind helicopters also began to strike at the ground!
Fighting, throughout Israel, is going on.
Western Israel, Mediterranean.
The sea surface is not very stormy, and the Kremlin, with its huge body, is as stable as a rock on the sea. And on the side of the Kremlin, there is the Soviet Union.
The two aircraft carriers, having converged, formed a larger formation, and now this aircraft carrier formation represents the most powerful combination of the Soviet Navy! One hundred and sixty carrier-based aircraft is enough to sweep through a medium power!
After crippling the aircraft carrier formation of the Americans, the Soviet navy, unconsciously, has established sea power! From then on, the Soviet Navy could go sideways across the entire ocean!
Of course, they are also raising their vigilance, guarding against the counterattack of the US Navy and the crazy retaliation of Israel at any time.
On the deck, a Su-33 fighter took off.
"It would be nice if our carrier-based aircraft, which are also Su-33s." At this time, the sea surface was a little windy and waves, and the Minsk aircraft carrier, with its beveled deck upturned, was moving forward with the wind and waves, and on the huge bridge, the captain of the Minsk, Colonel Ilyich, could not help but say.
The Minsk, which is already the only aircraft carrier of the Pacific Fleet, has already gone to the slipway of the shipyard of the island nation, ready to undergo modern modifications, and then sold to Ah San.
And the latest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is to be equipped with the Pacific Fleet, but it has not been in place until now. That aircraft carrier is still outfitting on the slipway!
So, at the moment, the Pacific Fleet, there is only one aircraft carrier that can be operated.
This is also a last resort, the Kiev aircraft carrier, originally transformed, after two years of operation, it was found that the original transformed leaping deck, the strength is not enough, cracks have appeared below, it must be retransformed, and the amount of work is huge!
Even if it is not sold to India, it is impossible to continue to use it intensively.
They are all looking forward to the arrival of the latest nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, and when the time comes, the Pacific Fleet, with its two-carrier formation, will still be the strongest in the Soviet Navy.
And now, even though there is only one aircraft carrier, they can also exert their maximum strength!
In addition to the fact that there is only one aircraft carrier left, the carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier also makes Ilyich a little unhappy, and in the case of other aircraft carriers that catapult and take off, they have been reequipped with Su-33, and their own aircraft carriers are still carrying MiG-23K carrier-based aircraft.
This is also no way, first of all, the production of the Su-33 is insufficient, the priority is to produce the catapult and take-off model, moreover, the Su-33 has also become a transitional model, the Su-37 has already entered service, and the Su-33 has not continued to be produced!
And the Minsk aircraft carrier, after all, is still nondescript, it looks like a cruiser in front, and it looks like an aircraft carrier from the side, only the flight deck on the left side can operate fighters!
Therefore, if the Su-33 is carried, theoretically speaking, there is no problem with the take-off and landing of this heavy carrier-based aircraft, that is, it needs to glide for a longer distance, so it will occupy the space in the landing area behind.
Originally, the deck was small, and such an operation would be more difficult, so the Minsk aircraft carrier was still equipped with the original MiG-23K, which first of all has a large thrust of the engine, and secondly, the swept wing is variable, and when it becomes a straight wing, the take-off and landing ability is quite outstanding.
Complaining, there are still there, Ilyich is just whining.
"Why, with only the MiG-23K, there is no confidence?" Just then, a man came up from behind.
Commander of the Pacific Fleet, Admiral Durt! This time, as the commander of the formation, I came along!
Ilyich immediately straightened up: "Of course not, even if we only have the MiG-15, we can complete the task!" ”
"Our mission this time is not to fight the U.S. Air Force in Alaska, but to confuse the Americans from the flanks. The task of seizing air supremacy is mainly carried out by our land-based aviation. Admiral Durt said: "For us, this is not a battle on the ocean, but a visit to our own doorstep. ”
"Yes, I understand." Ilyich said.
"We still have a day to get to the Gulf of Alaska, and our planes are all in good order?" Durt asked.
"Of course, it's well maintained, and it can be dispatched at any time." This was stated by the director of the aviation of the carrier-based aircraft, Grischen.
With his outstanding performance, Grishin has grown from a MiG-23K pilot to the commander of the entire carrier-based aircraft wing! Now, the aircraft carrier of the Soviet Union carries 14 MiG-23Ks and 10 helicopters, which have been fully maintained.
Although the attack power is far from being comparable with the Soviet Union, and the number of carrier-based aircraft is less than half, however, on the Minsk, there are also heavy anti-ship missiles, and the escort ships, in addition to the Kirov class, there are also Dreadnought 3 and Dreadnought 4, these warships are enough to protect the safety of the fleet!
"Okay, then tomorrow, we will let the Americans know that Alaska is the meat of our Soviet mouth!"
Minsk! In history, its existence has shocked the island nation and always been wary of this powerful aircraft carrier, and now, the Minsk, will also make the Americans tremble!
Minsk, sortie!
