Chapter 766: Cluster Bombs

The Iranians actually used chemical weapons, which caused huge casualties to the US military! Since the Iranians brazenly used chemical weapons, the United States no longer needs to hide them, and good things should also be greeted above the heads of the Iranians!

The mission of this B-2 is to fly to Tehran and blow up Tehran's government buildings and the Ministry of Defense! At this time, in the cabin of this B-2, on the stacked bomb pylon, there are 36 750-pound class cluster bombs, using these bombs, the United States will carry out a carpet bombing over Tehran! Bomb Tehran's main street of the capital into ruins!

The F-117 is not capable of such a mission, and although it can penetrate Iran's heavy air defenses and reach the skies over Tehran, it can only carry two laser-guided bombs. The current B-2 is capable of carrying 36 bombs at a time, and the lighter 500-pound bomb can carry a staggering 80!

This is a warning to the Iranians, a serious warning! The whole of Iran, is an undefended city!

Behind the B-2, there is a second attack wave, twelve F-117s that have been transferred to the Saudi air base, which will continue to enter, follow up the bombing, and then, hundreds of NATO warplanes, strike at various major targets in Iran.

The bomber is not only an advantage in terms of bomb load, due to the wide body, the cockpit in front is also very comfortable, the F-117 narrow cockpit makes it very difficult for the pilot to even move his body, and the B-2 bomber can even allow the pilot to brew a cup of instant coffee very elegantly.

After eating high-energy food and drinking another cup of coffee, the energy finally returned to the body, and the two pilots stretched. The final check of the digital map before entering Iranian airspace is carried out against the scheduled route.

The B-2 bomber has advanced navigation facilities, and after a long flight, the distance from the predetermined route is less than five meters, even if it drops ordinary bombs. There will also be quite high precision.

"James, get to work." Said the pilot on the right.

The two people work together, the one on the left is mainly responsible for flying, and the one on the right is mainly for weapon operation, and the instruments in front of the two are exactly the same, backing up each other, both of them have operating sticks, and when needed, the person on the right can also operate the aircraft.

"Understood." James said. Finally calibrated the route, the B-2 bomber, has entered Iranian airspace!

The electronic equipment on board constantly emitted a beep, indicating that the bomber had been irradiated by radar, but there was no sound of locking, just radar irradiation. It's gone.

The curved shape of the B-2 reflects the radar beam in other directions. The radar reflection area of a bomber with a wing width of more than 50 meters is about the size of a ping-pong ball, and sometimes, the Americans themselves feel that they are mastering alien technology.

Continue to fly forward, closer and closer to Tehran.

Finally, check that all the lights outside the aircraft are turned off. This is a very inadvertent, but lethal aspect, all the way to fly, only when refueling in the air will turn on the navigation lights, if after entering the war zone continue to turn on the navigation lights. An anti-aircraft cannon can wipe out your own side.

Keep flying! Looking at the fluorescent screen in front of him, which represented the trajectory of his own flight path, which completely coincided with the predetermined trajectory, James knew that he had now accurately entered the bombing route!

During the war, the whole of Tehran was dark, and the lights were controlled, and the Iranians were used to this state of war.

"A ten-second countdown." James said softly, the route ahead is already over the central street of Tehran, so fly straight over, drop bombs all the way, and form a carpet bombing effect, it's fun to think about.

"Ten, nine..."When James counted to two, the fingers of his companion on the right pressed the button, and the hatches of the two bomb bays under the belly of the plane were already opened.

Opening the bomb bay door will destroy the stealth effect, but this is only a matter of seconds.

Just as James counted to 1, his companion on the right continued to press the second button, and there was a shaking of the fuselage.

One after another, 750-pound cluster bombs, flew down from the sky, drawing graceful arcs and carrying death to the earth.

Within seconds, with all the bombs dropped, James gently pulled the lever and began to climb upwards, ready to turn and disengage in the predetermined airspace ahead.

The bombs continued to fall, and when they were still a hundred meters above the ground, these bombs suddenly exploded from the air, and inside the bombs, countless small bombs, were thrown out, and walked into a larger space.

Cluster bombs, also known as submunitions, are bombs containing many "bullets" of different sizes, and the body of the bomb is opened after the mother bomb is dropped or launched into the target attachment, and the bullets are dispersed in a larger area to achieve a larger destruction area and effect.

When this round of bullet rain passed, almost half of Tehran's entire city was covered with such cluster bombs.

"Boom!" A bomb that fell on a house in Tehran exploded instantly, setting the wooden house on fire in an instant.

"Quick, put out the fire!" The neighbors came out one after another, carrying buckets, and wanted to come up to put out the fire, but just after running a few steps, there was a violent explosion next to his body, and he saw that his body, which was getting higher and higher from the ground, was actually blown away!

The scattered tens of thousands of small bombs caused huge casualties to Tehran, countless people, vehicles, and houses were hit in this round of bombardment, and half of the city was turned into rubble, making it impossible for people to walk.

Moreover, some of the small bombs did not explode, and these bombs that did not explode are a deterrent and will continue to pose a threat to the citizens of Tehran for a long time to come.

The United States is a great power, and it cannot use chemical weapons at will, and in order to promote justice, it cannot use weapons of mass destruction such as nuclear weapons, but there are too many weapons of retaliation in the arsenal of the US military.

These cluster bombs destroyed half of Tehran and killed and injured hundreds of thousands of Tehran citizens.

When the bombs fell, Tehran's air defense forces discovered that there were uninvited guests in their sky, and countless searchlights hit the sky, lighting up pillars of light, and at the same time, the sound of anti-aircraft guns came and went, and tracer shells drew strips of light in the air, and the entire Tehran instantly entered a combat state.

It's a pity that they all shoot indiscriminately at the air, and it's not the World War II period anymore, and there is no artillery radar to lock on to the target, and this kind of aimless shooting has no effect.

At the same time, the air base in the north of Tehran, where Tomcat fighters were responsible for defending the capital, took off urgently from the runway, Tehran was attacked by air strikes, and they were going to protect their sacred capital!

In addition to the Tomcat fighters, the four FC-1 fighters that had just taken over and had not yet completed their modification training also took off urgently and joined the sequence of lift-off operations together.

Just as he was about to continue to fly the fighter plane, an explosion suddenly appeared on the runway, and several long-range cruise missiles had already hit the runway of the airport!

The few fighters behind that were preparing to take off came to an emergency stop, the runway was destroyed, and they could not continue to rise into the air!

Years of fighting have cultivated the fearlessness of the Iranian Air Force, and although they know that the NATO Air Force is quite difficult, they still resolutely take off to meet the enemy!

The attack of F-117 fighters also began, striking at the main military targets in the capital of Tehran, and they flew in the light of anti-aircraft artillery and in the columns of searchlights, constantly dropping laser-guided bombs.

With the destruction of several radar positions, Iran became blind.

An F-117 was flying in the air for two thousand meters, and on the display screen in front of the fighter, a building appeared.

After a simple comparison with the photo tied to his leg, the pilot, Captain Ait, determined that this was his target, a logistics warehouse of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps!

Putting the halo on it, the onboard laser fired a ray invisible to the naked eye and hit the warehouse, and then, Captain Aite pressed the button, and a 908-kilogram laser-guided bomb flew over the laser beam.

A minute later, the image displayed on the infrared imaging device had turned into a sea of fire, and Etra took up the nose of the plane and continued to look for the next target.

He didn't know that he had just found the wrong target and bombed the wrong target.

908 kg of laser-guided bombs, falling from the sky, penetrated the roof of the three-story building, smashed through the floor slabs of the second floor, and in the middle of the second floor, an explosion occurred.

"Boom!" With the sound of the explosion, the ground shook, and the whole building crumbled.

The rooms closest to the center of the explosion have all collapsed.

The flames were blazing, fire trucks were blaring, and they were rushing to the embassy district, an area under the care of the Tehran government.

On the flagpole in front, a bright national flag with five five-star stars was blown open with a few holes, but it was still fluttering in the wind.

"Let me in, I'm going to rescue Xiao Zhao and them!" Awakened by the explosion of the bomb in his sleep, the ambassador almost crawled out of the ground, found that there were fewer people who had escaped, and wanted to go in again immediately and rescue those subordinates.

"Ambassador Liu, you can't go in, it's dangerous inside." said an Iranian firefighter who arrived in a hurry.

"Boom." At this moment, the building on one side of the burning embassy collapsed again, and the entire building collapsed! (To be continued.) )
