Chapter 800: Air Raid Alert
"Well, we got it; However, if you are on a business trip alone, you must take care of your diet and daily life. β
Seeing the lover's embarrassed face, he had already understood this nervous guy very thoroughly, Su Xue, who was in her eyes, responded softly, and chatted with her lover as usual, asking him how he was settling down in Pakistan, whether he could adapt to the climate, and whether the clothes and supplies he brought were enough.
Video conversation with his lover, coupled with the interjection of the eldest lady on the side from time to time, the three of them communicated very cordially for a while, but Long Yun suddenly heard a gradual "woo-" sound, and he immediately thought of what kind of movement this was.
If you don't come sooner or later, damn air raid sirens!
The sudden alarm itself carried a kind of haste and panic, but Long Yun reacted quickly and explained to his lover and eldest lady, he had already thought about how to deal with this situation:
"Damn, which guy is smoking again! - Su Xue, Ling, the frightened bird-like fire alarm has sounded again, let's continue to talk and leave it alone. β
"Ah, is it a fire alarm?"
Knowing nothing about the situation on the battlefield in Iraq, the two girls naturally couldn't hear what this movement was, so they told him in a loud voice that it would be better to believe it than not to believe it, or to quickly pack up and run to take refuge; This reaction was naturally expected by Long Yun, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the two and ended the video call.
At this time, the air raid sirens in my ears became more and more poignant, could it be that the Liberal fighters were approaching?
Finally entered the city to talk once, but encountered an air raid by enemy aircraft, Long Yun asked himself if he was not afraid of any opponent in the sky. Now he can only run to the basement with the rest of the command to take shelter.
The new party controls the northern part of Iraq. Anti-aircraft fire on the ground is often weak. However, unlike ordinary small and medium-sized towns, Fort Scharqat is a temporary base of NATA after all, and it is also the focus of air defense for any military deployment, Long Yun knows that there are two air defense companies equipped with PG90 twin 35mm anti-aircraft guns deployed near this small city, and with the air attack level of FIAF fighters, it will not pose much threat to the town.
I hid in the underground bunker of the headquarters for a while, and sure enough, maybe it was the recent repeated blows in the air battle. The numerically superior Liberal fighters did not have a crazy army to overwhelm the territory, and there were not a few bombs in the city, let alone precision-guided weapons.
After the alarm was lifted, he drove back to the temporary base of the Third Independent Squadron, but Qi Hui, who had slept and got up, was already waiting for him at the gate of the camp.
"Brother Long, where did you go in the afternoon?
- Me, I'm really something. The ground crew just told me that my Blue Thirteen is temporarily unstable. This is to be expected, can you allocate your SKM to me to use? β
"Ahh ββDial to you? β
Long Yun was not so surprised by Qi Hui's request, first of all, repairing the battle-damaged aircraft at NATA was purely a matter of luck, and the fighters damaged in the air battle could not be repaired even if they flew back. Secondly, unlike the operating mechanism of the air force of ordinary countries, at least in the 3rd_IHFS, the pilots have a high degree of freedom, and the same is true for things like the allocation of fighters, and the pilots themselves can make their own decisions.
And when it comes to replacing fighters, Long Yun also has his own considerations and plans, he has been flying Su-27SKM fighters for a week, and he already knows a lot about this model, and he feels that it is basically similar to the maneuverability of the Su-27SK. As for radar and fire control systems, they are not very useful in situations other than over-the-horizon combat, especially in the face of stealth fighters - in short, they cannot compare with the white 20 Su-27P42 in parallel worlds, and they do not have an advantage in the face of Syrian rebels or Iraqi Freedom Party light fighters.
Thinking of this, Long Yun happily agreed to Qi Hui and let him take over his Red No. 15 Su-27SKM, and at the same time let him go to the squadron to apply for a Su-27SK for his own use.
In the next battle, his plan is also very straightforward, that is, he wants to concoct it on the basis of the old SK, make a lightweight fighter in the 3rd_IHFS in the real world, and use this sword to go sideways to prepare for dealing with strong enemies and even radar stealth fighters.
If you want to talk about "lightweight fighters", no matter how poor NATA's logistics support capabilities are, they won't even be able to dismantle the equipment, right?
This side was still thinking about his plan, and seeing that Long Yun agreed to the secondment of the fighter, Qi Hui, who came to the spirit, ran to the tarmac to find the ground crew, on the one hand, he seized the time to overhaul the red fifteen and prepare for the next day's attack, and more importantly, he went to the nearly ten Su-27SKs of the third squadron to see which one was not used by hired pilots for the time being, and the condition was better, so as not to let Long Yun have no chance to fly next.
At the temporary base at Fort Scharqat, which is in poor condition, the 3rd_IHFS has only a dozen fighters and more than 30 pilots, and it seems that the number of fighters is very tight.
However, it is completely different from the division on paper, even if there are more pilots on the staff, when the combat alarm sounds, there are often fighters who cannot find their owners, and can only temporarily arrest one or two Iraqi pilots to make up the number: due to the poor living and educational conditions and the almost blank aviation training system, the Iraqi New Party can hardly find suitable pilot candidates in the country, and the only pilots are naturally in the old enemy FIAF at this time, taking advantage of the prestige of the Baghdad regime.
Therefore, as NATA's main combat strength, the independent 3rd squadron still mainly relies on hired pilots sent by various countries, and the establishment of its own personnel system is still far away.
Long Yun didn't know much about NATA's situation before, but he had been taking to the air frequently in the past week, and he had figured out that the 3rd_IHFS was quite short of combat personnel, and he also understood the double meaning of the "organization" sending him to a certain extent-probably in addition to searching for the "mysterious flying machine" that was nowhere else, and participating in the battle of the new party was also one of his mission duties.
This point was not explicitly stated in the email sent by the "organization", but he could still sniff out the subtext between the lines.
Having said that, the "mysterious flying machine" that used to frequently appear in the Middle East skies has not been heard from recently, where did this thing go......
As night fell, lying on the marching bed in the tent of the temporary base, Long Yun nested in his sleeping bag to resist the invading cold, and he was still thinking about this question.
Three days earlier, on the orders of the "organization", the direction of his operations had shifted from the southern front to the western front, that is, to face the Syrian rebels; According to some information that Wang Weiguo had shown him before, Long Yun laboriously recalled that the dark mysterious flying machine mainly appeared in the sky over Syria. Combined with the recent noisy "FSA new fighter", Long Yun vaguely grasped the key to the problem, and he began to realize that Syria, a war-torn country, is a little strange, or rather, it is not Syria that is strange, but the Syrian Liberal Party rebels who are active in this country.
yes, isn't it weird to think about?
Syria, unlike the oil-rich countries of the Middle East, is largely an anti-Israel Arab hardliner, with a relatively strong military and a relatively strong government.
But this is the same country that is now mired in civil war like its hapless neighbor Iraq, and not only that, but the Liberal rebels, who have struggled with it somewhere, have gained the upper hand in the fierce battle with government forces and launched an attack on the new regime in northern Iraq.
Where is this still a rebel army, the combat effectiveness is simply strong.
Slowly reasoning along this line of thought, Long Yun, who did not have more intelligence support, couldn't think too far, he only vaguely felt the strangeness of the organization of the "Liberal Party Rebels".
Yes, there must be something extraordinary about how a rabble of Liberal parties can make such a stir in the Middle East, even with the covert support of the forces behind the scenes, such as the European Community; If you think a little further, maybe it will be inseparable from the "mysterious flying machine" in the night sky, which is also entirely possible.
Lying in the cold tent, hearing the sound of the wind in his ears, Long Yun was thinking about the problem until he fell asleep, and he only thought about it at the moment before he was sane and about to fall asleep, the last time he crossed was on flight TG615 flying over the subcontinent.
It's been more than a week since the last time I crossed over......
Through the mysterious connection of consciousness, the sleeping dragon cloud once again traveled to the war-torn world.
When he woke up as Viktor Rezenov, his ears were first filled with the roar of paddles with the sound of "tuk-tuk", Long Yun looked at the interior of the cabin in front of him for a while, and he slowly remembered where he was sitting.
Oh, and the last time he ended the crossing, he was sitting on a Mi-28N helicopter returning to Stavropol.
The use of helicopters to pick up and drop off major generals of the aviation forces attending combat meetings has almost become a common practice of the KGB, but in fact, Long Yun still has reservations about this arrangement. The accident rate of helicopter transportation is actually much higher than that of fixed-wing aircraft, and don't look at this thing flying not as high as an airplane, not as fast as an airplane, if it really falls, it is still very easy to crash and die, and it is better to say that the safety of a car or train is better.
But now it's a time of war, and if you're in a hurry, you'll have to take a helicopter. (To be continued......)
