Chapter 4 Arrangement of antiaircraft artillery positions
It is very difficult for an aircraft flying at high speed to hit with an anti-aircraft gun, and even the latest modern twin-mounted 35-mm anti-aircraft guns with gun-sighting radars require a certain amount of skill.
Not to mention this kind of ordinary anti-aircraft artillery placed outside, this kind of anti-aircraft artillery firing into the air is simply a random shot, and the hit rate is basically negligible.
However, if you know exactly the direction, speed, and time of the incoming aircraft, then it is another matter, and it is completely possible to arrange the anti-aircraft guns on the flight path of the opponent, so that the anti-aircraft shells and the aircraft kiss at the same time and in the same space.
Even Zhang Feng did not dare to guarantee that he, a graduate of the military academy, would let the missile hit the plane.
However, it is much simpler to make an anti-aircraft artillery. Until later generations, there were also reserve soldiers who trained in anti-aircraft artillery, sat in the position of anti-aircraft artillery, shook the crank handle, and the anti-aircraft gun would rotate, and when it reached a suitable place, press the electric door, and the shell would be fired, which was not much more difficult than using a rifle.
"Let everyone, come with me, and transfer the anti-aircraft artillery to the position!" Zhang Feng said.
After speaking, Zhang Feng strode towards the anti-aircraft artillery position.
Anti-aircraft artillery, in fact, is not bad, at least, it is not subject to electromagnetic interference. Although the Israeli planes will not be interfered with by the early warning planes, it is difficult to guarantee that the other side will not hang an electromagnetic interference pod on the wings.
Zhang Feng is an optimist, he walked towards the anti-aircraft artillery position with great interest, and when he looked around, dozens of anti-aircraft artillery guns were facing the sky, and there were actually a few soldiers sitting on the rotating gun position!
Zhang Feng was so moved that the guys who were working on the anti-aircraft missiles ran away, and they could at least hide in the car to prevent the sun, but these anti-aircraft artillery soldiers were holding their positions under the scorching heat!
"Who is the captain here?" Zhang Feng asked.
Seeing a large group of people coming, as well as a few sentries they knew, the artillerymen knew that it was probably a big man coming.
"Report, I am the commander of the 4th Company of the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Anti-aircraft Artillery Regiment of the 35th Division, Warih." Warich stood up and replied loudly: "My company is on combat duty here. ”
"Okay, now I order you to immediately move all the anti-aircraft artillery to a lake twenty kilometers to the west." Zhang Feng said.
Moving to a lake twenty kilometers away? Warish was dumbfounded, his anti-aircraft artillery position was to protect the nuclear reactor, not the lake, and he couldn't help but look at Zhang Feng with suspicion.
"Do it, I'm absolutely right, and tomorrow, you can be promoted to battalion commander, or even regiment commander." Zhang Feng said, "Believe me, I am Qusayi Abdullah ibn Saddam Hussein. He changed his tone to a patient tone.
Hearing the identity of the person who came, Warich was very surprised and very excited, the soldier who didn't want to be a general was not a good soldier, he naturally wanted to be promoted.
"I am willing to serve you, Your Excellency Qusay, my company has two towed anti-aircraft artillery platoons, eighteen towed anti-aircraft guns, one self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery platoon, and nine self-propelled anti-aircraft guns. Warich said.
A company has three platoons, a platoon has three squads, for anti-aircraft artillery, a squad has two anti-aircraft guns, and one anti-aircraft gun is enough for two people, and the other three are responsible for loading ammunition and carrying ammunition.
There are two kinds of anti-aircraft guns, one is unpowered and needs to be towed by a car, and the other is equipped with its own power and can walk to reach its destination by itself. Comparing the two, naturally, the self-propelled anti-aircraft gun is much more advanced.
"No, we only bring towed anti-aircraft guns, immediately let the soldiers turn the anti-aircraft guns into a marching state, my people will help you, within fifteen minutes, be sure to go." Zhang Feng said.
To tow the anti-aircraft artillery to be deployed on the position, it was necessary to erect all kinds of legs, the wheels were also folded, and they were transferred to the march for loading, and several people had to work together.
Warich was taken aback, going twenty kilometers away, naturally it is the most suitable self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery, how could this Lord Qusay, the second son of the president, choose to use the old towed anti-aircraft artillery?
Zhang Feng knew it well, he was fully aware of the plans of the Israeli Air Force, and all the way over, he flew at a low altitude until he was 20 kilometers away from the Osrak reactor, passing a lake as a guide landmark. Then climb high and attack.
The reason is very simple, after a long-distance flight, there will definitely be an error in the route, and it is impossible to fly over the reactor again to bomb, so before that, you have to choose a suitable reference object, which is this lake, find this lake, determine the location of the nuclear reactor, and then, climb higher, quickly fly over this 20-kilometer distance, and attack.
In Zhang Feng's heart, this lake is the grave of the other party's plane!
The level of the Israeli pilots is very high, they dare to fly at a low altitude of 30 meters for several hours in a row, and when they are about to reach the point of attack, they are also the most nervous, they penetrate the defense at a low altitude, the speed is very fast, and they can't see the scattered anti-aircraft guns at all, and the anti-aircraft artillery at such a close distance, as long as it hits a shell, it can tear the opponent's plane to pieces.
This is a quadruple rapid-fire gun, and it is still possible to block this lake with dozens of guns.
F-16, this advanced fighter, just moan under the anti-aircraft guns! Zhang Feng firmly believes that his arrangement is correct.
The self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery was not chosen, because in addition to the eight F-16s responsible for attacking, the other side also had six F-15s responsible for covering, Zhang Feng was not sure whether the opponent's plane was carrying a device that could detect infrared.
Xu Sanduo in later generations carried a hot egg for the squad leader in his arms, but was discovered by the plane, Zhang Feng didn't want to make such a mistake.
All the soldiers in the entire base were mobilized, and in addition to the eighteen towed anti-aircraft guns belonging to Warih, the more than 20 towed anti-aircraft guns of the other anti-aircraft artillery companies were also converted into a marching state, and the trucks of the base drove out of the base, towing the anti-aircraft guns, and driving towards the lake 20 kilometers away.
"Warikh, leave half of your men in charge of the self-propelled anti-aircraft artillery here." Zhang Feng said.
Although he was very sure that the planes of the air raid would come from the lake, it was necessary to have some men here to be on the safe side.
"Yes, Sir Qusay." Warich said.
"Are there any other means of air defense here?" Zhang Feng asked, a few days ago, Iran's air force came to attack the nuclear reactor, but it was defeated, and there should be a variety of air defense means here.
"Report to Lord Qusay, and the blocking balloon." Warich replied.
"Okay, then assign the task to the people left behind to inflate all the blocking balloons in an hour. The enemy will arrive at 5:30 a.m. Zhang Feng said.
"Yes, Sir Qusay." The shock in Warih's heart was incomparable, this His Excellency Qusay must have been personally authorized by President Saddam, otherwise, how could he be so sure that the enemy would arrive at 5:30? That's too precise, right?
A blocking balloon is a special type of balloon that floats in a sequence and is fixed on top of buildings to form a barrier net to block enemy aircraft. It was inexpensive and effective, and during World War II, it was used by the British to protect buildings in London.
After leaving the mission, Warich and the rest of the soldiers got into the car and set off together.
Zhang Feng returned to the sports car and drove towards the lake to the west.
While driving, Zhang Feng was thinking about it, and it was also very difficult to shoot a low-altitude fast-flying plane with an anti-aircraft gun. However, fortunately, they knew that the other side would enter the skies over Iraq from the southwestern border, and at this lake as a guiding landmark, they would break away from the low altitude here, turn to climb upward, exposing the belly to their own firepower, and, in the process of climbing upward, they would lose speed, and due to the obscuration of the belly, they would not be able to see the anti-aircraft guns below at all.
Then put out a pocket! Zhang Feng made a perfect decision.
Reaching the shore of the lake, all the anti-aircraft guns, were nervously deployed.
Zhang Feng asked all the anti-aircraft guns to be arranged on the north and east shores of the lake, forming a fan-shaped pocket, a total of forty towed anti-aircraft guns, each anti-aircraft gun has four barrels, arranged in two rows before and after, after firing together, it is definitely a barrage of death.
The only drawback was that there were not many professional anti-aircraft artillerymen who came with Warikh, only forty people were brought. However, with the addition of other manpower, it can also meet the needs of three or four people on a cannon.
Let a professional artilleryman, with two or three new hands, is also a last resort, but it doesn't matter, as long as the shells are not stuck, the direction of the muzzle has been explained by Zhang Feng in advance, and the direction of aiming is fifty meters above the island in the center of the lake.
Due to the rising water, the island was already flooded by the river, however, this did not prevent the gunners from aiming.
All the anti-aircraft guns squeaked, the crank was turning rapidly, and the muzzle was gradually raised. Eventually, all the guns were pointed at the predetermined location.
Zhang Feng looked at his watch, it was already 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and in another 10 minutes, the Israeli plane would fly into the transit line from a low altitude, and it would arrive here at about 5:20 p.m.
Zhang Feng turned his head again, and his face suddenly changed: "Idiot, hurry up and drive all the trucks away, drive back to the base, Gasal, drive my sports car away!" ”
In order not to be detected, the towed artillery was used, and the trucks were still in the place where the anti-aircraft guns had been dropped. The F-15 fighters of the opposing side who are responsible for covering the task will climb high to monitor, and if the other side discovers the anti-aircraft artillery positions here, their efforts will be in vain.
The car began to turn around, and Zhang Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he found that in the compartment of the car, there were some wooden boxes with Russian and Arabic written on them.
Sam-7 missile!
