Chapter 272: Bombing the Air Base

The MiG-21 fleet flew smoothly and lined up in a straight line, and in front of them, they could already see their own air base, the long runway.

Get into the glide line and land!

Seeing the planes so defenseless, like a flock of sheep on the prairie, Rick shouted over the radio, "Attack freely!" ”

After speaking, he pulled the operating stick back, the nose of the plane was raised, and the Sidewinder missile under the wing had locked on a MiG-21, and the heat flow from the tail nozzle behind it was the best target!

"Boom!" When the last MiG-21 was hit, the fighters in front realized that the situation was not good, and at this time, there were already several Sidewinder missiles, flying towards them.

The MiG-21 group was scattered, and two fighters were very flustered during the flight, and they actually collided!

Under the noses of the Cuban ground crew, the Tomcat fighters began to slaughter them, which was a one-sided slaughter, in the first round of attacks, three MiG-21 fighters were shot down, two collided in the air, and the last one wanted to pull up, but Rick rushed up and exploded in the air with a cannon.

In front of the eyes of the Cubans, having killed all the planes, Rick finally gave the order to return home.

The news reached South Africa, and the airbase was boiling.

The president was gone, and the commander of the South African Air Force, Lieutenant General Dennis Up, welcomed the returning warriors.

"The Cuban Air Force is very difficult to deal with, and our Mirage F1 fighters are already lagging behind." At the welcome banquet, Dennis said to Rick and the others: "We are very happy to see that the Cuban Air Force was beaten to the ground today. ”

"In front of our Tomcat fighters, any active fighter of the Soviet Air Force is the object of slaughter." "Now, we're going to talk about what's next," Rick said. ”

Next? Dennis couldn't help but be surprised by the person in front of him. Their fighting spirit is very worth emulating.

"What's next?" Dennis asked.

"Wait until our A-7 fighters arrive, completely bomb the air bases of the Cubans, so that all their fighters, blow up on the runway, at the same time. We destroyed their radar and anti-aircraft artillery positions and made the Angolan skies completely ours. Rick said.

Destroy their air bases! Dennis's eyes lit up, in the past, the South African Air Force had long wanted to do this, but, instead of destroying their air base, on the contrary, the South African air base. However, it was destroyed by Cuba and lost many warplanes.

"Their air bases are almost all located along the coast, so this time we will attack from the sea." "We need to move to Nolos and take off from the air base there," Rick said. ”

Angola's major cities, all located along the coast, are now. The SPLM has almost always taken control of the coastal cities of Angola and left it to UNITA. There is only a corner of the southeast, and the South African army has withdrawn to Namibia.

The attacks of the Cuban Air Force were too sharp, and in the absence of air supremacy, the South African army was repeatedly attacked by the Cuban Air Force.

Right now. Denis was of course very happy to hear that the Cuban air base was going to be attacked, to deal with the Cuban Air Force once and for all.

"So, what can our Air Force do?" Dennis asked.

"Stand by." Rick said.

It's not that Rick underestimates the South African Air Force, it's because in the absence of AWACS. The command of thirty fighters has already made Rick a waste of energy, and if the South African Air Force is mixed in again, Rick will have to worry about the problem of accidental hits, so it is better to be as calm as he is now.

Dennis blushed for a while, is his own air force so vulnerable?

"We need all the information on these air bases." Rick said: "There is the Lao Guifang Air Force, conducting a reconnaissance activity. ”

Rick knows the truth of cooperation, and now, this kind of reconnaissance activity is left to the opposing air force.

"Yes, we'll definitely scout those air bases." Dennis said.

The next day, the A-7 attack planes were also in place, all deployed at the Nolos base, refueling, checking, hanging bombs, bombing of the Cuban air base, about to begin.

"Attention, we went out at four o'clock in the afternoon, and when we got over the opponent, it was dusk, which is when their defense was at its weakest, and we were going to destroy all their ground facilities, especially those planes parked on the runway." Rick said: "The fighters parked on the ground are also counted as our results in shooting down, in order to fight the lackeys of the Soviets, let's fight!" ”

Actually, Rick would love to say, for those commissions, fight! This operation can blow up at least 30 fighters of the Cuban Air Force, one 10 million, more than 30 planes, that is more than 300 million dollars! The money came so fast!

The pilots agreed with a bang, and on their knees, they were tied to aerial photographs, which were sketched with a pen, which was their target.

The group took off at the base, although the A-7 attack aircraft was ugly, but the heavy bombs hanging under the wings represented how strong its combat effectiveness was, and a squadron of Mirage F1 fighters was not as much as an A-7 to carry on it, and it also carried two auxiliary fuel tanks for long-distance flights.

The Cuban Air Force is equipped with backward Soviet fighters, using turbojet engines, which consume a lot of fuel and have a short range, so Rick deployed his fighters in South Africa to prevent a counterattack by the Cuban Air Force, and they can't fly here at all, unless they don't plan to go back.

Although these fighters were all leased to the Americans, they were destroyed when they were destroyed, but Rick still had other plans, and he would find an opportunity to fly directly to Pakistan in the future, but he regarded these fighters as his own wealth.

The large group of planes took off, and by this time, the sun had reached the west, and the sun was shining on the sea.

Along the coastline of Namibia, the fleet of planes flew non-stop, and finally, flew over Namibia and reached the coastline of Angola.

When approaching, they all lowered their altitude to prevent detection by the anti-aircraft radars arranged by Cuba.

Two A-7 fighters flew at the front, and under their wings, in addition to heavy bombs, there were also slender missiles, which were Mozu anti-radiation missiles.

They flew in the direction of the radar station, and the missiles had already begun to receive radar signals.

Inside the radar station, several Cuban radar soldiers were staring at the screen in front of them.

Cuba did not ask for any commission for this battle, and it was entirely out of the help of an international communist Third World, especially in South Africa, which directly sent troops to participate in the civil war in Angola, which made them very indignant.

Now, most of Angola is occupied by the Angolan People's Liberation Movement, and they have changed their name to the Angolan People's Liberation Army, which can be regarded as the legitimate Angolan army.

A tiny echo appears on the screen.

"What is this?" The attentive radar soldier suddenly noticed that something was unusual.

"Anti-radiation missiles! Quick, shut down! Another radar soldier shouted.

Cuba is different from other countries, they have always grown up in the backyard of the United States, and have smashed several American plots to subvert their regime, and Cuban soldiers are also very familiar with American weapons.

This one flew in, it must be an anti-radiation missile! On the battlefield in Vietnam, the way to deal with anti-radiation missiles is to turn them off!

The radar antenna was turned to the side and shut down at the same time, however, the Mozu missile has long been improved and has long had the function of dealing with the shutdown radar, and when the target radiation disappears, it will continue to move in the direction just now, unless the radar car can move, it will be empty.

Moreover, in order to deal with this radar, after launching the anti-radiation missile, the pilot of the A-7, continuing to guide a Maverick air-to-surface missile, aimed at the radar of the opposing side.

Even if the Mozu missile cannot hit the opposing side, the Maverick missile can guarantee an accurate hit.

"Boom!" "Boom!" Two explosions, the Mozu missile and the Maverick missile, hit the target one after another, and the radar station was completely in ruins.

The first shot of the attack has been fired!

After the radar station was destroyed, the anti-aircraft artillery position next to it, without the guidance of the radar, lost its eyes, not to mention, it is now dusk, all the fighters, lined up in a neat line, went to the canteen to eat, and there were no ten people left on the anti-aircraft artillery position.

"Boom!" A bomb accurately landed on the anti-aircraft artillery position, and with the explosion of the bomb, one anti-aircraft gun was blown into scrap metal, and the continuous bombardment completely turned the anti-aircraft artillery position into ruins.

At the same time, sharp air defense sirens sounded over the airbase.

The Cuban Air Force was well-trained, and two pilots on duty, fully equipped and carrying flight helmets, ran quickly towards their plane.

Jumping into the cockpit, they started the engine and slid down the runway while the canopy was still closed.

Overhead, there were already black-pressed fighters, they were fearless, continued to glide towards the runway, turned on the afterburner, and took off quickly!

"Boom!" A Maverick missile, which accurately hit a MiG-21 fighter, instantly turned into a fireball.

Another MiG-21 fighter, but insisted on flying into the sky.

"067, shoot it down!" Rick shouted over the radio.

"Understood." 067 was lurking on the side of the runway, watching the MiG-21 pull up, the heat flow in the tail was so dazzling, he unceremoniously launched a Sidewinder missile.

Soon, the MiG-21, which was still climbing, fell downwards with smoke coming out of its tail.

Since most of the entire territory of the country is occupied by SPLM, the Cuban Air Force thinks it is safe, and for convenience, all the warplanes are on the tarmac, not in the hangar, and now, they have suffered a devastating blow. (To be continued......)
