Chapter 1177: Bird Fighting!
The Hydra's air force has twenty-four helicopter gunships, including twelve AH-64 Apache attack helicopters, intending to hit the Shepherds in the face with a sharp straight punch.
Wade's confidence was strong, because according to what he had learned, that is, the intelligence he had obtained showed that his opponent did not have a decent air defense system and would not have long-range strike capabilities. All the weapons and equipment provided by Kolevsky to the Mujia Army entered the war zone through the secret channels of the Saber Regiment, and the secrecy work was done very well.
And Li Mu knows a lot about Wade's Hydra Eagles, and it can basically be said that the Mujia Army has achieved one-way transparency on the battlefield. In other words, the movement of the nine-headed eagle could not escape the eyes of the herdsman's army, but the nine-headed eagle could not see clearly or could not really see the situation of the herdsman's army.
Not to mention, Li Shuangkui and An Ruoyi formed an electronic deception team with several technicians, and they had already started to implement electronic deception.
The Hydra's biggest advantage is that it has tens of thousands of troops, and its weapons and equipment are almost twice as large as the Shepherd's Army, and it can be supported by F-4 Phantom fighters when necessary. But Wade didn't know that the Tiger's Den base that Li Mu had obtained was one of the fully staffed combat bases with saber regiments all over the world, and he thought it was just an abandoned cave base.
Walker pressed the alarm switch and gave the order in the communication channel: "Guys, start joining the attack course, repeat, codenamed Thunder Bombardment, I repeat, Thunder Bombardment." ”
As the long plane, he climbed first into the attack course, and the rest of the Apache attack helicopters climbed one after another, taking on a diamond-shaped attack formation.
"Check the target parameters, prepare for launch. Walker informed the weapon operator in the back seat.
The weapon operator confirmed the target parameters, "received, checking...... Well, you can launch. ”
"Launch!" As soon as Walker's words fell, the radar alarm suddenly sounded, and the red flashed continuously!
"Wolfa!"
Walker subconsciously cursed, "Can anyone tell me what's going on? We're locked in? How is that possible!"
The weapon operator sat a little higher, and he clearly saw a fire ahead, the tail flame of a missile, which was not so obvious in the evening sky, but faintly recognizable!
"No, Walker, it's a missile, it's coming at us! it's a missile! missile!!" His tone changed from blank to hissed.
"! It's a missile! We're being attacked by a missile!"
"Evade maneuvering!! Evade maneuvering! Height! Descending height!!"
The communications channels of the Apache attack helicopter formation were in chaos, and the retired pilots of the US military and the Israel Defense Forces were shouting in horror and making evasive maneuvers. One of the most effective of these is the drop in height. It is difficult for ordinary surface-to-air missiles to hit ultra-low-flying helicopters, because the radar reflection waves of the terrain are natural interference.
However, for the Apache attack helicopter formation, which has just climbed to the attack route of thousands of meters, it is basically equivalent to a fantasy to descend to a height of less than 50 meters before being hit in front of the **** with a speed of Mach 2.5!
Walker probably knew this, and instead of immediately descending altitude, he hurriedly flew sideways and fired all the jamming bombs under the belly of the plane!
The radar alarm means that they have been locked by the opponent's fire-control radar, and if they can't get out of the lock as soon as possible, there is no other end to them than being shot down. Missiles are used against fixed-wing fighters, and slow helicopters are simply live targets in the eyes of these missiles!
Walker used all his strength, several rolls in a row, and after firing all the jamming bombs, he dropped his flight altitude by 500 meters, and almost fell into a tailspin state!
Before that, he launched all the Hellfires regardless of it, and the Hellfire missiles that had no launch conditions at all just broke away from the pylons and then automatically ignited and shot out, as for where to hit, Walker didn't have the heart to care anymore.
As soon as the radar siren stopped chirping, Walker was relieved to see a fireworks display going on in the sky to his right.
Countless missile locusts pounced on the Apache attack helicopter formation, each of which was pursued by almost two missiles, usually inferior. The helicopter used to deal with the slow is simply a knife to kill the chicken.
Without the slightest suspense, in the face of a surface-to-air missile with a speed of Mach 2.5, the Apache attack helicopter had only a share to be slaughtered when it was locked.
An Apache attack helicopter was almost hit by two missiles at the same time, and the nearly 140 kilograms of high-energy explosives carried by the **** missile warhead exploded, tearing the entire plane apart neatly, and the fuselage was scattered everywhere into unclear fragments, and the huge fire made the surrounding light suddenly brighten!
Before several nearby Apache were hit by missiles, they lost control under a powerful shock wave. But still to avoid the fate of not being hit, the **** missiles that are self-homing throughout the whole process bite their respective targets tightly and will not stop the pursuit until the fuel runs out.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The continuous explosions, like one after another super-powerful fireworks bombs being fired from the ground, exploded in the calibrated air, igniting brilliant sparks. Flying fragments of the fuselage crackled and slammed into the other Apache who hadn't yet been hit.
The catastrophe began when an Apache-mounted Hellfire missile exploded.
The missiles locked onto the target, and the alarms of the Apache attack helicopter formation issued a warning and then began to make evasive maneuvers, all in a matter of seconds. That is, when the **** missiles pounced, the Apache squadron was still in attack formation, and in order to reduce the targets detected by the radar, their formations were very dense.
Eight Hellfire missiles exploded in the Apache Hit Explosion, and the shock wave from the successive explosions swept out in all directions around the explosion point like a sudden gust of twelve.
Flying objects within a range of 500 meters are not immune.
Walker felt the fuselage shake violently, and the status presented by the flight control monitoring system showed that the plane was on the verge of losing control.
Those Apaches, which were swept away by the shock wave, were constantly hit by the **** missiles that rushed over, and they were not repeated, and they were all taken care of by the two missiles. Even if some of them have exploded into fireballs, the second missile can still rely on the guidance of infrared training to attack the fireball, blowing up the Apache that fell to the ground into slag!
At a height of less than fifty meters above the ground, Walker regained control of the plane with his rich experience, and he was so heartbroken that he didn't dare to linger at all, and turned around almost to the ground and fled back to the Eagle's Nest base.
In the command and control center of the Eagle's Nest base, Wade watched the bright spots representing his own fighters disappear in a very short period of time, and the corners of his mouth twitched and said, "Walker Squadron is finished." ”
"Sir, Colonel Walker is on his way back. "There is an operational staff officer who said.
Wade sneered and endured the shock in his heart about the strength of the Mu Family's army, and said, "There is no point anymore." Get ready, we're going to have to meet their counterattack. I have to believe that they have long-range strike capabilities. ”
There was a solemn silence in the command and control center of the Eagle's Nest base.
