Babylonian Empire

Glancing at the two injured Tomcats, Reyel knew that as long as he gave the other two missiles, they could be sent to heaven, but time was running out.

In this battle, four MiG-25s were used to successfully damage two Tomcats. As long as they return safely, they will definitely boost the morale of the Air Force, and they will no longer be afraid of Tomcats!

From this perspective, Reyel's goal has been achieved.If you wait for the other two tomcats to arrive, although you are relatively close to these two tomcats, the other party will not shoot the phoenix at you from a long distance, but when you get close, you will be caught in a fight with the two tomcats , is still very dangerous.

He quickly pulled the lever and pedaled the rudder to adjust the course, and at the same time, turned on the booster switch.

The two MiG-25s at high altitude also began to return rapidly:.

The speed is increasing, and the altitude is gradually increasing. Soon, it reaches an altitude of more than 2 meters, and the speedometer is gradually approaching the red line.

Although in the test flight, the MiG-25 flew three times the speed of sound, but this was done without a plug-in, and at this time it could only fly in a straight line.But in reality, when it is close to Mach [-], it is already in a dangerous area. Therefore, on the Mach meter, there is a bright red line at [-], which warns the pilot that in fierce battles, keep alert.

However, sometimes, pilots don't take it seriously, especially with the previous two MiG-25s.

They knew that there were two phoenixes flying towards them at this moment, and what they had to do was to fly out of the range of the phoenixes!

One of the planes actually flew to Mach 3, and, after holding on for [-] minutes, it flew out of the Iranian border in one breath. At this time, the phoenix behind it could no longer fly.

The MiG-23 and Su-20 formations have also returned, because at this time a large number of Iranian planes behind have arrived, and there may be more than two squadrons.

After quitting the fight, things are not over yet.

The four crew members in the Tomcat cockpit are doing their best to save the plane.

Today’s Iranian Air Force cannot get spare parts supply, and there are not many aircraft that can be dispatched. If there is one less aircraft in a fight, and one flight, the vulnerable parts will be consumed once. Therefore, the pilots cherish the aircraft very much. It is not a last resort. , Never give up, even if it is driven back and scrapped, it can also provide parts for other aircraft.

Turn off the damaged right engine, output the thrust of the left engine to the maximum, and turn off various unnecessary electrical equipment. The two superb pilots, Karat Barry and Noroz, are driving the Tomcat as if they were drunk driving. with.

At this time, the good control ability of the Tomcat is shown. The Tomcat has an aerodynamic layout with two vertical tails. Because the two engines are far apart, the Tomcat yaws unbelievably. However, press the joystick to the right Afterwards, the plane resumed direct flight.

The fighter jets that came after that were unable to catch up with the departing Iraqi fleet, so they could only accompany the two damaged Tomcats and return to the air force base.

ps: Although the MiG-25 is a high-altitude and high-speed interceptor, it does not mean that it cannot fight with enemy aircraft. On the night of the desert storm on January 1991, 1, the MiG-17 passed through the U.S. Navy. The front of the f-25 formation, went around to the side, and killed an unconscious f-18 hornet.

And later on January 1, two Iraqi MiG-19 fighter jets faced four of the world's most advanced air superiority aircraft F25C at that time. The radar has repeatedly disengaged, and even made an 4g turn without being caught, and dodged the missiles launched by the US military many times, so that the f15c took a lot of effort to shoot them down.If the MiG-15's fire control electronic system was not backward, there would even be a chance to fight back.

Thank you Faxisi for the reward, if you have time tonight, I will add another chapter.However, the next two chapters need to consult a large amount of information, which is a bit troublesome.Please remember the URL, if you like "Babylonian Empire" written by Huadongzhixiong

Chapter 89 The White House

Chapter 89 The White House——

United States, White House: .

President Ronald Wilson Reagan, Vice President George Bush, Secretary of Defense Casper Weinberg, National Security Adviser Poindexter, Secretary of State George Schultz, Secretary of Energy James Edwards and White House Chief of Staff James Addison Baker, who was being briefed by CIA Director William Casey.

"As we all know, the situation in the Middle East is related to the stability of global oil prices. Today, Iran and Iraq have been engaged in a war for more than a year. Although there is no winner or loser, the current situation has undergone subtle changes." Casey Introduced.

"Wouldn't it be Khomeini who launched a counterattack with the slogan of jihad?" Bush asked.

The 36-year-old George Bush is already the vice president of the United States. He is at the most vigorous stage of his life and always looks energetic.

The others laughed, and when it comes to Khomeini, everyone is full of disgust for him, so it is natural to make fun of him whenever there is a chance:.

"The vice president is right. It was Khomeini who started the counterattack. It started from the southwestern Khuzestan province," Casey said.

"Khuzestan is rich in oil resources. When the war started last year, Iraq's main attack direction was here. After more than a year of fighting, Abadan has not been defeated. Counting, it is time to fight back." Weinberg Then he said jokingly: "Tell me what your reconnaissance satellite found?"

Compared with Bush, Secretary of Defense Weinberger is more than 60 years old. Although his face has traces of years, his eyes are still very bright. When he speaks, he doesn't look like an old man at all, but looks like a wise man. A middle-aged man, the years have left him with rich experience in dealing with international situations, and he is sometimes as cunning as a fox.At the same time, as a Republican, he is a representative of the hawks and firmly advocates a tough stance against the Soviet Union. He has continuously increased military expenditures and developed strategic armed forces including stealth bombers and missiles on a large scale to fight against the Soviet Union. Fees have seen their greatest growth in peacetime.

Compared with reconnaissance satellites, Weinberg prefers to use reconnaissance planes. He already has the U-8000 Black Widow high-altitude reconnaissance plane that can fly to 2 meters, and the high-altitude reconnaissance plane that can fly to 71 meters, and its speed is [-] times faster. The sonic SR-[-] Blackbird reconnaissance plane, and the top-secret Dawn Goddess project is underway, he is not very interested in reconnaissance satellites. "Search to see the fastest"

About the goddess of dawn, until now, it is also a mystery. It is speculated that the captain of the goddess of dawn is 32 meters long, 7 meters high, with a full load of 83 tons, more than two-thirds of which are fuel, and a cruising altitude of 30500 to 36600 The maximum cruising altitude is about 38000 meters. It uses a ramjet engine with an extremely simple structure consisting of only the intake port, combustion chamber and nozzle. The maximum cruising speed is about Mach 6. Even now, there is no It can be shot down by any means.

With the rapid development of military science and technology, satellites have increasingly become important reconnaissance tools.However, spy satellites are not omnipotent. They fly at high altitudes, and their orbits will be detected by powerful countries, such as China. Then, when this kind of satellite will reach the sky, it can be deduced, even if it suddenly Changing orbit can also give the enemy enough time to react, so reconnaissance satellites also have certain flaws.As another important reconnaissance tool, the strategic reconnaissance aircraft has always played an important role, and sometimes its role is even greater than that of reconnaissance satellites.

Weinberg supported the reconnaissance plane, and naturally had some prejudices against the CIA, which always likes to use spy satellites for analysis.

Casey did not refute, this old man who always reveals the unique American humor, Casey still has respect.

"This is a photo taken by our reconnaissance satellite." Casey said, and sent a photo to everyone.

President Reagan took it. Although Casey had reported the theme of the meeting to him in advance, he still didn't understand the photo after looking at it for a long time.

"Cathy, let me tell you. Except for professionals, I'm afraid that none of us here can understand your picture. The picture on it is not a Hollywood star." Baker said.

"This is a photo taken by our reconnaissance satellite yesterday. The photo is by the Karun River in the west of Abadan. The white spots shown on it are produced when a bomb explodes. On the ground, those one by one The ant-like thing is an Iranian tank, and here is a zoomed-in photo of it."

Speaking, Casey took out the enlarged photo.

People still don't get it.

The picture taken by the satellite is a top view, that is, the picture seen from the top, which is very different from the side view, and ordinary people can't see what it is at all.

In Casey's eyes, it is very clear that just looking at the machine gun on the top of the turret, it is the British-made Chieftain tank equipped by Iran.

"What kind of bomb has such a big spot?" Edwards asked.

At this meeting, the Minister of Energy was called, because any disturbance in the Middle East will be linked to the lifeblood of the world economy: oil.

"This is a napalm bomb dropped by the Iraqi army. It is extremely lethal. I am afraid that all of these Iranian troops will die here." Weinberg said.

Whether ginger is still old or hot, Weinberg saw the key at a glance. On the flat land on the bank of the Karen River, the army exposed to the wild would definitely be bombed to nothing by the air force.

"According to the summarization of all our intelligence, our CIA has finally determined a battle situation: Iran has begun to counterattack, first starting from the Susangild Swamp two months ago. It was originally a surprise attack, but it was seen through by the Iraqi army. A large-scale tank battle was launched in the swamp. Iran failed, and a tank division lost its organizational structure. And just yesterday, the Iranian army counterattacked and defeated the Iraqi army that had surrounded them for more than a year. However, in Iraq When the army fled to the Karun River, the Iraqi air force appeared just right, and completely wiped out the Iranian army in this place, with an estimated 3 to [-] casualties." After Casey finished speaking, the room fell silent.

Everyone knows what this means.

Iran has always been on the defensive, and finally started to counterattack. Now, tens of thousands of soldiers have accumulated and started to counterattack. Who knows, they were all killed.

The strategy of the United States is to use this war to greatly weaken the overall national strength of both sides. At that time, it will be much more convenient for the United States to intervene in Middle East affairs.

And because Khomeini overthrew the pro-American Bavill regime and spread the word that the United States is a big Satan, the United States supported Iraq at the beginning of the war, and many top-secret satellite images were secretly provided to Iraq.However, if Iraq occupies all of Iran, that is not what the United States wants to see.

A powerful Middle Eastern country is definitely not in the interests of the United States.

In particular, what is buried underground in the Middle East is black gold.

"Casey, well done. We must pay close attention to the situation of the Iran-Iraq war and not let the balance of the war tip to any side." Reagan said.

"I have a question. This time, the Iraqi air force and army cooperated so skillfully and perfectly. It is definitely not something that the self-righteous military officers in Iraq can do. It is not like Saddam's behavior. Do you know the reason for this operation? Command, who is it?" Weinberg asked.

"As confirmed by our agents in ambush in Iraq, this battle was planned by Saddam's youngest son, Qusay. Shadow," Casey said.

The CIA paid a lot of money to obtain this news. Since the last time in the Susangilde Swamp, the CIA has been collecting all the information about Qusay.

"Qusay? That little guy, the beard hasn't grown yet?" National Security Adviser Poindexter asked in disbelief.
