Chapter 113: Thermobaric Bomb
It's not that the Americans are reluctant to use nuclear weapons, but not far from the pyramid is Cairo, the capital of Egypt, which is not Australia's large artesian basin, sparsely populated, and can be thrown whenever you want, even if you use a neutron bomb with less nuclear radiation, it will have a huge adverse effect on Cairo.
"Roger, Cobras, Loaches, Zebra formations began to leave the battlefield area."
The fighter formation glanced at the two friendly soldiers who died in battle, because of the tragedy of the air crash, the two dead pilots did not even leave a complete body, and the plane was directly blown into fragments, even if they wanted to collect the corpses, it was very difficult.
Everyone shook their wings in silence and evacuated.
The helicopter with Lannos and their helicopter, as well as the extra-large plane composed of Optimus Prime and others, had evacuated to a safe distance of 10 kilometers, and was still moving away, and Li Qi also decisively chose to retreat, standing at a high altitude outside the safe distance to observe the situation.
The situation is very different from in the movie, the Decepticons have too many advantages, and the US military is forced to use ballistic missiles, although it is not yet known which model, but has begun to lock down the attack area.
"What is the air support that is being called this time?"
Li Qi stayed in mid-air, watching the pyramid in the distance turn into a small dot, and silently guessed in his heart.
Herakryon, Greece.
The military base, which is closest to the Egyptian border, became the main force in the airstrike.
"This is the Pentagon......"
A confidential battle order was sent to the base, and on a certain Gobi not far from this military base, a piece of ground trembled a few times, and then parted to the sides, revealing a black hole in the silos.
This silo is stockpiled with medium- and long-range intercontinental missiles that can carry strategic nuclear warheads, as well as short-range ballistic missiles, one of which has been activated at the moment.
A thick white short-range ballistic missile, which spewed out a thick tongue of fire, flew into the sky and swooped headlong into the Egyptian volley.
"Everything is normal, the flight parameters are being calibrated."
On the console of the underground silos, several US Air Force members carefully controlled the missile's flight path, and the white missile easily rushed into the clouds, and after a flight of about 800 kilometers, it fell from the sky to directly hit the target at the Egyptian pyramids.
Short-range ballistic missiles are also capable of achieving high-speed uninterceptable effects after entering passive attack (striking ground targets from a high altitude).
"Flight altitude 2500 meters, satellite joint guidance medium ......"
Not only the console of the underground silos, but the Pentagon is also watching the situation of this missile from satellites, which is a new missile developed by a new defense company in the United States to replace the famous "Tomahawk" series of missiles, tentatively codenamed "Skylark", which has not yet been officially installed.
In addition to land-based launches, this Skylark ballistic missile can also be launched underwater by ships. In addition to being able to carry strategic nuclear warheads, it can also carry conventional warheads, which is much lower than the cost of intercontinental missiles, and the accuracy and other data are also satisfactory to the Pentagon.
"Hopefully the results will satisfy me."
Chief of Staff Glenn pinched his chin and looked at the one that had finished climbing. Missiles that began to enter the stage of dive strikes.
Since the pyramid is a densely populated urban area, the nuclear warhead was temporarily replaced, and after consideration it carried a thermobaric warhead, a dangerous item that the United States had developed only six months earlier.
The thermobaric bomb is actually an advanced development model of the cloud burst bomb, and the principle is to use air explosives to produce a thermobaric effect. In addition to high-pressure and high-heat shock waves, it can instantly form an oxygen-deficient area in the explosion area, suffocating people to death.
Originally, the General Staff was going to use the conventional warhead of Hesokin, but after thinking about it, it used thermobaric bombs, and although the oxygen-deficient area was of little use to robots, there happened to be a few thermobaric warheads (unofficial versions) that were newly installed not long ago. I started to test the waters.
On the picture on the satellite, you can already see that the land is constantly magnifying, the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea are clearly visible in the distance, and the missiles are quickly rushing to the pyramids on the ground under the accurate guidance of the satellite.
"It's coming!"
Like Lannos, Li Qi, who had evacuated to a safe distance, suddenly saw a clear sky. A small black dot quickly swooped down, the mask magnified the image, and Li Qi saw a thick projectile.
"What kind of warhead is this missile used for? Is it a nuclear weapon? No, it shouldn't be possible, the negative effect of nuclear weapons is too great, and this is a densely populated area, so I don't know what kind of conventional warheads are used. ”
With a hint of excitement, Li Qi quietly watched the missile slowly approach the ground position, without noticing the worn-out walkie-talkie in his hand. The green indicator flashed a few times.
"The ratio is complete...... Start of applications for air strike ......"
Seeing that the human army began to retreat on a large scale, the Fallen King Kong also breathed a sigh of relief, and the other Decepticons stayed around with a big grin, and without the threat of missiles, this area was temporarily quiet.
"I don't know how long it will take to adjust that machine."
Megatron looked at the figure of Fallen King Kong in the distance. An unknown look flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and grabbed the red spider by the neck.
"Red Spider, if your reasons don't convince me, I'll definitely break your neck!"
A minute ago, moments before the massive human retreat, the Red Spider suddenly found Megatron, and without saying a word, pulled Megatron into the distance, and did not stop until it had run several kilometers.
"Master, I have a bad premonition, you see that those human beings have retreated, there are no worries, I think human beings should use some powerful weapons, Fallen King Kong has no problem with the protection of the energy shield, but we can't directly resist."
I have to say that the red spider guy, although he is very timid, and he will run for his life if he is slightly wrong, but this feeling of predicting danger is indeed very accurate, especially Megatron, who knows the character of the red spider, thought about it in his heart, and found that the red spider is really likely to happen.
"Humph!"
Megatron withdrew his arm, and a moment later, the red spider suddenly screamed.
"Look, master!"
Megatron subconsciously turned his head and saw a thick missile falling from the sky and whizzing down to the location of the pyramid.
"That's it!"
"It's a human missile!"
Thirty-one Decepticons were slightly gathered around the pyramid, protecting the machine and the Fallen King Kong, and when the Skylark missile fell, it naturally attracted their attention.
"That's ......"
"Not good, dangerous"
