The purpose of the exercise is to demonstrate one's combat effectiveness and to represent one's confidence and ability to use force to resolve certain disputes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧

Blind forbearance, occasionally need to explode!

For Qusay, there is another purpose for inviting Western countries to observe this time, which is to divert attention!

Soldiers, treacherous!

The Mediterranean region has become very unpeaceful at this time.

After entering the Mediterranean, the Soviet Navy generously announced the waters of its exercises, and then, on the wide deck at the back of the Moskva, helicopters took off and landed, and they began an "extraordinary" anti-submarine exercise, helicopters carrying sonar buoys, all the while approaching the east, to catch the traces of submarines they might find.

Closer and closer to the sè column.

The U.S. Air Force stationed in Turkey made several sorties in a vain attempt to get close to the Soviet naval formation, but they were soon illuminated by the guidance radar of the Soviet Navy's SA-N-4 anti-aircraft missiles, which were responsible for air defense, and even locked on. ≦≧

The E. sè column, which had always been tough, was a little forbearant at this time, and they were very careful to patrol over their own airspace and did not fly out of their own airspace.

As for the Israels, they have now reached the most critical juncture, and the worst possible scenario for them is the Soviet Union's attack on the Israelis.

The Arab countries are not terrible, their military strength, no matter how strong they are, is absolutely not comparable to the Israeli column, and if they want to attack the Dimona region of the Israeli column, the Arab countries do not have this ability, even the Iraqi Air Force, which thinks it is already strong, is impossible. However, the USSR was different. This time, if the Soviet Union really wanted to be ruthless, it would definitely provoke a dispute during naval exercises, and then, find an excuse to attack the nuclear reactors in the column!

At this critical juncture, they have become more cautious, guarding their airspace, ready to launch a desperate counterattack against the incoming enemy!

When the clouds of war were gathering over the Mediterranean, in the Hagler region of Saudi Arabia on the side of the Gulf of Aqaba. ≦≧ the armies of the Arab countries, organized by Saudi Arabia and Iraq as the main military force, began the first military exercises in history.

This exercise. With Prince Sultan as the commander-in-chief, it is divided into two sides, ground and air, on the ground, under the joint command of Prince Sultan and General Izzat of Iraq, in the sky. It was co-ordinated through Iraq's pre-jing aircraft, and Prince Fahd of Kuwait served as the commander-in-chief on the pre-jing plane.

In this exercise, in addition to the main Saudi and Iraqi troops, there were Kuwait, Jordan. Troops from the United Arab Emirates, Oman and other countries appeared on the stage together.

Except for the army. Saudi Arabia also invited observers from the United States, France, the United Kingdom, and China to observe the exercise.

France and the United Kingdom. Each symbol sent its own ambassadors and military attachés to the Middle East, while China sent a delegation of more than a dozen soldiers. They're here to learn. The United States, on the other hand, sent a team headed by Deputy Secretary of Defense William, who mobilized the army and at the same time was a little arrogant.

On June 30, 1984, the Babylonian Fury officially began in the Gulf of Aqaba in northwestern Saudi Arabia. ≦≧

The first part of the exercise was a struggle for air supremacy, in which a squadron of F-15s taking off from Saudi Arabia's Prince Sultan Air Base and two squadrons of Mirage 4000s taking off from Basra Air Base engaged in a unique aerial confrontation.

Both sides do not have the support of the pre-jing machine, the pre-jing machine is only responsible for judging the tactics and use of the two sides, this exercise, there is no plan, it is completely the same as the actual battle, who can lock the other party in advance, that means victory.

The F-15 fighters of the Saudi Air Force are divided into three squadrons to search the airspace from three directions, hoping to detect each other in advance, and at the same time guide medium-range air-to-air missiles to complete operations outside the visual range.

Subsequently, in the predetermined direction, they did not find the target.

There was only one large target, and that was a passenger plane flying from Riyadh to Europe, and they carefully moved away from the airspace where the exercise took place, grazing the edge of the airspace.

"No targets were found, and the 2nd and 3rd squadrons turned in the 0-3-1 direction." said the captain of the Saudi F-15 group.

The third squadron on the right side of the formation took the lead in making a right turn, and then, it found that there was indeed a bright spot flying in the south, and the Iraqi pilots were so cunning that they actually made a big circle!

They crossed half of Saudi Arabia at an ultra-low altitude, and finally, from the Red Sea to the north, in a direction they did not expect. ≦≧

However, the Saudi pilots are also very fickle, after they turned south, they found the target from the radar, and began to make preparations before the battle, turned on the fire control system of the Sparrow air-to-air missile, ready to lock the other party with the radar, of course, the last hair shè, it is not necessary, as long as the other party is locked step by step, they are considered victorious, although now in the air battle, the xing energy of the air-to-air missile is not very good, but the principle of the game is like this!

Although the Xing energy of the Mirage 4000 is already relatively powerful, at medium range, the French radar Xing energy is still not comparable with the American radar, especially the F-15C, its radar, but the newly improved APG-63 radar developed by the United States, can still easily lock on to the other side.

It's just that what makes the Saudi pilots strange is that there is only one bright spot, does it mean that the other side has only one fighter? In the pre-arrangement, they were in an air battle with the two squadrons of the opposing side Mirage 4000, and now, the other side only came to fight, and if they were to fight like this, it would be too bad to give face to the Arab brothers. ≦≧

Just when the pilots of these two flight squadrons in Saudi Arabia were thinking easily in their minds, they suddenly heard a voice from inside the headphones, and they were locked!

On the radar, the other party is still eighty kilometers away from him, how can he lock himself? Can the opponent's radar xing be more advanced than your own? Besides, even if they lock themselves at such a distance, what methods can they use to hit themselves? The opponent's missiles have a range of just over 30 kilometers!

It's just that at this time, the voice of the commander of the pre-jing aircraft has already come from the earphones: "The second squadron, the third squadron, two fighters were shot down each, please withdraw from the airspace of the exercise." ”

Shot down? How did the pre-jing machine determine it? Saudi pilots were dissatisfied.

Only Prince Fahd, who was sitting on the pre-jing plane, could be regarded as understanding that the Iraqi Air Force did not play its cards according to common sense at all!

Just after the fighter plane of the Saudi Air Force turned south, the passenger plane, which did not seem to have any difference, suddenly changed from one bright spot to five bright spots!

A fleet of Mirage 4000s in Iraq, in a large and dense formation, got under the belly of the passenger plane, and in this way, under the cover of the passenger plane, entered the vicinity of the warring airspace.

They managed to hide from the eyes of the Saudi Air Force. Just after entering the airspace of the exercise, they suddenly got out from under the belly of the airliner, turned left, accelerated, and at the same time turned on their radar, quickly locking on the Saudi Air Force fighters who had turned south.

If it was a fighter plane and it got under the belly of the airliner, it would be acceptable, but now it is four! Four fighters flying in a dense formation is already a very dangerous subject, if you get under a large plane, due to the influence of air currents, the slightest carelessness will cause tragic consequences, not to mention, this is a passenger plane!

Although the world is peaceful, forgetting the war will be dangerous, Iraq has been through the fire of war for a long time, and has trained a powerful air force, although the pilots of Saudi Arabia are also the best of the jingying, but they will not fly in a dense formation, not to mention flying under the big plane.

After they flew out, they pounced on the unsuspecting Saudi fighters and directly "killed" four of them.

The pilots of the fighter planes of the Saudi Air Force, who withdrew after being "shot down", were very remorseful and were shot down before they saw the enemy!

Now in the sky, there are eight F-15s from Saudi Arabia and eight Mirage 4000s from Iraq.

The remaining pilots of the Saudi Air Force were furious, and their two squadrons split up and flew towards Iraqi fighters to the east and south.

The fighter planes of the Saudi Air Force, which continued to the south, suddenly spotted the point of light in front of them and divided into four.

Or a dense formation!

The two sides went head-on and began a second operation to lock on to each other.

In the high-speed approach, each side had two planes and successfully locked on to the other side.

In the sky, there were six fighters left on each side and entered the close-quarters combat.

The F-15 is a conventional aerodynamic layout, but the United States has the top level in various fields, so the F-15 is decent, but the air combat ability is very good, especially the two Pratt-Whitney in the rear...... The engine, with a bypass ratio of 0.7, a two-shaft 3-stage fan + a 10-stage high-pressure compressor + a 2-stage turbo, a thrust-to-weight ratio of 7.8 and an afterburner thrust of up to 11,340 kg, provides a solid foundation for the superior performance of the F-15.

However, the Mirage 4000 adopts the unconventional layout of the large delta wing and the front full moving canard, which directly provides positive lift on the head, although the engine is still a short board, with the advantage of the shape, the two sides have won and lost each other in close combat.

However, the pilots of the Saudi Air Force have one of the biggest disadvantages, that is, they have no real combat experience! So, in the end, the two sides fought from high altitude to low altitude, from two aircraft formation to single aircraft, and finally Iraq's Mirage 4000 remained, and Saudi Arabia's F-15, only one remained.
