It is known as the most powerful navy in the world, and it is still a two-aircraft carrier formation, and it was flown over its own aircraft carrier by the other side! It's unimaginable, what did the Aegis battleship do?

After the Tomcat took off, the E-2 also took off to monitor the situation at low altitude, but it only saw the four points of light flying in the direction of the Gulf of Oman, and there was no doubt that they were Iraqi fighters. Pen, Fun, Court www.biquge.info{{}}

If it were to be invaded by the Soviet Air Force, they would be able to accept it, and the Iraqi Navy, which they considered to be a second-rate army, would actually make such a bold move, which was even more unacceptable to the US Navy.

If the Iraqi Navy had already embarrassed them by holding exercises ahead of schedule, then it was simply unacceptable for them that the Iraqi Air Force dared to take the initiative to provoke this time.

Those two anti-ship missiles under the wing are simply a demonstration against them.

Moreover, at a distance of more than a thousand kilometers, Iraq's aviation units were able to find them on the vast sea, which shows that the combat effectiveness of the Iraqi army has been greatly improved. {{}}

In addition to being shocked and dissatisfied, they also began to be cautious, the carrier-based aircraft took to the air, and the Hawkeye pre-aircraft was also monitoring in the air, gradually approaching the direction of the Gulf of Oman.

June 20, 1988.

Outside the Gulf of Oman, a large-scale military exercise is gradually unfolding, and the main force of the exercise is the destroyer with a displacement of more than 8,000 tons.

In the sky, an Ultra-Hornet helicopter of the Iraqi Navy, flying outside the area of the exercises.

On board the helicopter, military attaches from various countries, who were invited to observe the exercise up close. After receiving Iraq's invitation, all countries dispatched their military attachés to it as soon as possible, and what they were most interested in was, of course, the Hyundai-class ship detained by the Iraqi Navy.

Looking at the whole world, I am afraid that only Iraq has the courage to detain the Soviet warship, and it is also kept for its own use, and other countries are also a little tempted, and now, the debt owed by the Soviet Union to Western Europe is also very large, or, follow the example of Iraq, and detain a Soviet warship?

The largest warship is eye-catching, and the smallest missile boat has also attracted the attention of many people, because the shape of the missile boat is too peculiar. {{}}

"That warship, why does it look so strange?" said a British military observer.

"That's the latest missile boat to enter service in our Iraqi Navy." On board the Super Wasp helicopter, the representative of Iraq explained: "The shape of this warship is completely made in accordance with the model of anti-radar waves, and when a radar shines on it, it will reverse the radar wave to another direction, thus reducing the probability of being detected by radar, and the surface is coated with paint that absorbs radar." ”

Stealth warships? Now, France's Lafayette class has begun to enter the final design stage, and the first boat was only built in 90 years, and a country like Iraq, with such scientific research conditions, can actually develop a stealth warship? Although it is only a small missile boat, this is already a leapfrog development.

"It's not just radar stealth." The representative of Iraq continued: "Our warship also adopts the method of reducing noise and cooling the exhaust system through seawater, in addition to radar stealth, it also has low infrared and acoustic characteristics. ”

The concept of Iraq has always been so advanced. {{}} The other military observers sighed in their hearts, Iraqis, when has it developed to this extent?

"How high can this missile boat be stealth?" A Frenchman asked.

"If our red-star missile boats can be discovered by the other side at a distance of 80 kilometers, then our missile boats can be completely 40 kilometers away without being discovered by the other side." said the Iraqi commentator.

The voice was not loud, but it shocked other people, this Iraqi missile boat, if it is really so godly, in the Persian Gulf region, outside the Gulf of Oman, this kind of missile boat can completely kill large warships when it comes to fighting guerrillas.

"This missile boat is loaded with anti-ship missiles developed by Iraq itself, with a range of 200 kilometers." The Iraqi commentator continued.

On the contrary, it is still somewhat exaggerated that the first stealth missile boat to enter service has not yet been solved, especially the so-called stealth coating, which is still in the development stage. Therefore, the construction of the second boat was relatively delayed.

However, these foreigners obviously did not know that they had heard the explanation of the Iraqi commentator, and then looked at the shape, thinking that Iraq had really developed a world-class stealth ship. {{}}

This small stealth missile boat, these observers immediately saw its use, which can be used as a carrier of anti-ship missiles to attack aircraft carrier formations!

Just as they were thinking, they saw that the narrator received a message, and then the narrator excitedly announced to them: The largest warship below is about to launch a supersonic anti-ship missile!

At present, none of the missiles in the West are hypersonic, because, supersonic missiles need to have a combined ramjet engine, and all missiles in the West are subsonic, and in this regard, the USSR is far ahead.

Western countries, only in the Soviet exercises, found the hair of this missile, at that time, they were shocked by the speed of this missile, this missile, can actually fly at a speed of Mach 2.4!

In general, shipborne radars, the distance to detect sea-skimming targets will not exceed twenty kilometers, due to the fact that such missiles fly three to four times faster than the subsonic missiles that are widespread in the West. The subsonic missile needs to fly for about 70 seconds at this distance, and the US Aegis system can fully intercept it. And this hypersonic missile only needs thirty seconds, and the time left for them to react is only a dozen seconds, that is, this missile, the United States is almost impossible to react.

In the Soviet Union, this missile was called Sandfly, while in the West, it was called Burn, as if the sun was roasting the earth, and this missile was testing the air defense system of the US Navy at any time.

And now, Iraq's test of this missile obviously has a deeper meaning.

Huge black smoke was constantly rising from the chimney of the Modern-Class Unforgettable, which was also a defect in the oil-burning boiler, as if the smoke was constantly emitted into the air, slowly fading, and finally disappearing.

Inside the bridge, Lieutenant Colonel Abdul Wahid Thoma had a calm expression and gave orders one by one.

On the top of the bridge, there is a pair of radars like a large bell jar, which is the eye of the Sandfly missile, the "Letai" anti-ship missile guidance radar. At this time, this radar is aiming at a target ship a hundred kilometers away.

Yezhov, who was next to him, was full of admiration for this lieutenant colonel of the Iraqi Navy, who had only taken over for more than a month and was already familiar with the entire warship, and searched the entire Soviet Navy, and there was no one who loved and was obsessed with warships as much as him.

Abdur has changed from the position of captain of the Heden-class warship to the current Hyundai-class captain, and he is well aware of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he has been working hard to master the cāo work of this nearly 10,000-ton warship.

This missile test, nothing can go wrong, this is a demonstration.

Moreover, in this trial, the personnel of the Iraqi Navy took the leading role, and the Soviets next to them became instructors, and when the Iraqis made a mistake, they would take over the power of the cāo at any time.

A puff of smoke erupted from the front hair pipe, and then, a huge missile rushed out.

In the combustion chamber of the main engine of the sandfly missile, there is a solid-state vertebral aid, at this time, the booster ignites to help this missile accelerate, which is also a defect of the ramjet engine, which cannot complete the work of boosting by itself, and the ramjet engine must reach a certain speed before it can ignite. The booster burns out, the ramjet main engine ignites, the air is sucked from the four air intakes around the warhead, and the missile begins to continue to accelerate.

The helicopter, all the observers, recorded this spectacular scene, the smoke emitted by the anti-ship missiles, almost encircling the entire Hyundai class.

Three minutes later, the target ship 100 kilometers away was hit by this huge missile above the waterline, and the entire target ship immediately turned into two sections and quickly sank.

The main role of the exercise, the anti-ship missile fire, was a complete success.

Then, the sky streaked the traces of warplanes, and the Iraqi warplanes that took off from the Abbas base flew over the ship formation, providing air defense for the formation.

After the spectacular spectacle, the Ultra Wasp helicopter returned to the Qeshm Island base.

"Excuse me, is this exercise aimed at the U.S. Navy?" A British observer saw that the Iraqi naval commander had also just returned from the exercise and immediately seized the opportunity to ask.

Finally someone has asked the question, and it's a tough question, after all, the recent situation, everyone knows what's going on.

"We in Iraq and the United States are close allies, and our exercise is just a very ordinary exercise, and it is not aimed at the US Navy at all." Nasser said.

At the same time, in Baghdad, journalists also raised the issue with the spokesman of the Iraqi Foreign Ministry.

"This is just a joint exercise between our Iraqi Navy and the Saudi Navy, and there is nothing aimed at Xing." A spokesman for Iraq's Foreign Ministry said: "We are close allies with the United States. Just yesterday, we conducted a joint exercise with the US Navy. ”

After speaking, the spokesman took out a photograph in which several Iraqi warplanes were flying over a US aircraft carrier.

The world does not know about this confrontation, so after seeing this photo, the journalists are in a sensation.

Could it be that the US aircraft carrier is here to hold a joint military exercise with the Iraqi side? (To be continued.)
