Chapter 366
Babylon.
Within 48 hours of the start of the war, the multinational forces have gained full air superiority over the battlefield.
A large number of multinational force aircraft hovered in the sky of Babylon every day.
The headquarters of the multinational forces.
"Gentlemen, I think we should engage in ground warfare." Hawke, the five-star admiral of the Lighthouse Country and the commander-in-chief of the multinational forces, said.
So, an operation named Desert Knife began.
A large number of multinational force tanks entered Babylon from the border of Saudi Arabia.
The seven aircraft carrier formations of the Lighthouse Country were on standby at the coastline, and a large number of carrier-based aircraft and guided missiles poured a large amount of ammunition on the marked valuable targets every day.
The bombers in the sky also bombed all the targets they could see continuously.
With the clearing of the tank cluster, everyone thought that the war might come to an end...
Under the attack of the trinity of the multinational forces, Babylon's seemingly powerful army was actually vulnerable.
Babylon has 5,500 tanks, of which more than 750 are T72.
There are more than 8,000 armored vehicles of various types, more than 500 self-propelled artillery, more than 3,000 towed artillery, and more than 5,000 anti-aircraft guns of various types.
There are also up to 1.2 million combat troops. No matter from which aspect, it can be called the fourth military power in the world.
However, it is such an army that, under the crushing of technology, was subjected to a full-scale, multi-angle, and no-dead-angle friction by multinational forces.
It can be said that this war has awakened the whole world.
Everyone suddenly realized that war can be fought like this.
Babylon's more than 5,000 tanks and more armored vehicles became targets of multinational aircraft on the battlefield.
What's more embarrassing is that Babylon's tank troops found that the radar and artillery range of their tanks were not as good as those of the multinational forces.
Before their radars even found the enemy tanks, their tanks were destroyed by the enemy tanks.
Under such unfavorable circumstances, let alone 5,000 tanks, even if there were 50,000 tanks, they could not withstand such consumption. This was not an equal war at all.
…
"We can't fight like this anymore. We can't sacrifice in vain!" A colonel of the Presidential Guard said fiercely while slamming the table.
"Pete, what do you want to say?" The head of the Presidential Guard, Hou Sailei, looked at the angry subordinate and said calmly.
"Sir, we can't be beaten passively like this anymore."
"What do you have in mind?" Hou Sailei said.
"We can't use this conventional warfare method anymore. We will be eaten away by the enemy bit by bit. We soldiers are not afraid of death, but we are afraid of death without any value." Pete said excitedly.
Hou Sailei just looked at him quietly.
After a long time, he said, "What do you want?"
"Sir, I think we should fight special operations. Even if we still can't change the situation in the end, we must let these invaders know that the blood of our Babylonian soldiers is not cold."
"Special operations?" Monkey Sai Lei touched his mustache.
"Yes, sir. I think a kind of warfare called guerrilla warfare carried out by a certain Eastern country half a century ago is very suitable for the current environment. Combined with special operations, I believe that some results will be achieved."
"Is it guerrilla warfare? It sounds good. Are you sure?"
"Sir, no, but I will go all out and even sacrifice my life."
After thinking for a long time, Sai Lei nodded.
"Pete, do as you say. Tell me what you want."
"Sir, I don't want tanks or planes. I want missiles, a large number of individual missiles. In addition, I also need anti-aircraft missiles, electromagnetic shielding devices, and drones..."
A battlefield somewhere in the desert.
A multinational tank squad with only 5 tanks was patrolling the land.
"Brothers, these Babylonian tanks are too fragile, especially their ridiculous radar system, which is much shorter than ours.
This is equivalent to giving away the merits in our pockets for nothing. I really hope that such battles can last longer.
When the war is over, maybe I will have enough money to buy a brand new car. What do you think, Cadillac or Chrysler?"
While the members of this tank squad were chatting, what they didn't know was that severalA head.
Colonel Pete is a special operations officer of Babylon. At this time, he is leading his team to lurk in this desert area in advance.
The purpose is to ambush several tanks of the multinational forces to enhance the morale of the entire army.
Since the head-on confrontation between the tank clusters of the two sides cannot win, then let's carry out special operations like this.
"Brothers, three people in one tank, each lock the target, and hit them hard for me." Pete gave his own instructions in the combat call channel.
"Target lock the lead car."
"Target lock the tail car."
"Target lock the third car."
...
All the team members reported the tanks they locked.
"Now, guys, I order, give them a hard lesson!"
In an instant, 15 anti-tank missiles rose into the sky.
As soon as the missiles were launched, they were immediately captured by the tank's radar.
They never thought that they would be ambushed by the other side in this wilderness.
At the first moment, they identified the model of the missile.
"Damn it, it's the Red Arrow missile that attacks the top. Why are they here?"
The Red Arrow missile is an anti-tank missile specially developed by the Crow Farm Airport to attack the top of the tank.
This missile can avoid the thick armor of the tank and directly attack the top. It is said that it is to prevent and control some pests and diseases...
Once the missile is launched, the fate of the tank is almost determined.
The cost of a Red Arrow missile is 100,000 dragons, um, US dollars.
So, is it reasonable to sell one for 200,000 US dollars?
For a tank that costs millions of dollars, it also has to bear huge maintenance costs.
This anti-tank missile weighs less than 20 kilograms and costs 200,000 US dollars per missile, which is very cost-effective. Of course, if the batch is large, there is a 20% discount at one time.
As for why Babylon has this batch of missiles? This has to start with Qin Huanxi at the beginning...
