Short range surface to surface missiles or long-range rockets are OK. In short, the test firing of frog 7 is not too simple.
First of all, although this thing is broken, it also has a maximum range of 68 kilometers. If it is erected, it will fight. What if there are houses in the impact area.
It's certainly bad to hurt people in case of shooting, but it's a great waste to shoot casually. It completely loses the significance of test firing. We always have to set a target, look at the range, look at the accuracy, and try the skills of Neva's missile soldiers.
It is true that the frog 7 missile has a large error, but it is qualified if it is one kilometer away from the target, but it is more than ten kilometers away from the target, which should be regarded as the problem of missile soldiers.
Moreover, Neva, Dmitri and a group of people they brought have not touched missiles for more than ten years. Whether they can operate skillfully or not has to be verified.
So to test fire, first send someone to set up a target, then notify Neva of the impact area, and then let Neva them fight.
It was also missile soldiers who went to set the target area, but Gao Yang also sent Taylor and Vasili. Taylor was a professional air attack guide soldier. Although he guided the target for air attack, he had professional training and was better than Gao Yang's complete laymen.
As for Vasili, Gao Yang firmly believes that there are no military skills that the black devil doesn't understand, and it's absolutely no problem to use it only as an observer.
Neva was busy with the missile soldiers, while Gao Yang sat in the distance and watched the preparations of the missile soldiers with binoculars.
Frog 7 is still very powerful. I'm afraid if frog 7 missile doesn't fly out and blow up on the launcher, it's close, but it's the end of the whole army. Although this possibility is small, it's better to hide away.
Neva commanded, and Dmitri accompanied Gao Yang to explain to him.
Compared with the popular Neva, Dmitri is much more gentle and elegant, with the unique demeanor and elegance of intellectuals.
"The target area is set 50 kilometers away. At present, we only know the approximate distance, but we don't know the specific direction. Therefore, after the target position is determined and returned, our computing soldiers need to calculate the specific data. It takes a certain time, but it won't be long before they can launch."
Gao Yang put down his telescope and said to Dmitri: "just rely on calculation?"
Dmitri smiled: "no, launching rockets and missiles are very different things. Rockets have no seeker. They can be launched just like artillery. Unlike missiles, missiles also need to calculate data, but they also need to set inertial seeker, so as to reflect the significance of missiles."
Gao Yang nodded and said, "I see."
Dmitri continued: "If it is a surface to surface missile aimed at a fixed target and placed in a fixed position, all the data are set in advance. For example, the intercontinental missile on strategic duty can be launched immediately after completing the launch preparation. However, it is obviously impossible for the tactical short-range surface to surface missile to set a seeker in advance, so whether the short-range missile is fast or accurate depends on the accuracy of the missile force Quality. "
"Thank you. I understand this time."
After politely thanking Dmitri, Gao Yang continued to watch the missile launch preparations.
When the data from the target area came, Neva soon issued the launch command, and then a missile soared up. After a few minutes of flight, Taylor sent an observation report.
"The missile has landed. Visually, the explosion point is about 1200 meters from the target. Over."
"I see. Stay away from the target. Pay attention to safety. Over."
After letting Taylor stay further away from the target, Gao Yang said to Dmitri, "is the result good at 1200 meters?"
Dmitri smiled and said, "for frog 7 without guidance system, this result is very good."
Gao Yang picked up the walkie talkie and said in a deep voice, "Neva, shoot out the remaining two missiles."
Two frogs 7 hit out one after another, and the second one was a little off the mark. The explosion point had to be more than three kilometers away from the target position. In fact, it was not enough to scare people.
The third frog 7 is better. The explosion point is about 600 meters away from the target the size of a car, which is barely scratched to the edge of the explosion radius. However, Dmitri himself said that this is lucky. In actual combat, we can't expect such accuracy every time.
Weapons like frog 7 are also suitable for attacking urban targets. The combat power of missile attacking cities in the Iran Iraq war can also be used. If you want to attack combat troops, you can only rely on a large number of launch modes to ensure the damage effect.
Frog 7 and Scud can be deleted from the list of weapons in Gaoyang's original plan, because both weapons do not match his combat mode. Even if husai armed forces can give dozens of frog 7, it is useless.
Gao Yang is still willing to call frog 7 a missile rather than a rocket, because he thinks the missile sounds more powerful.
When the missile was finished, there would be no danger. Gao Yang came to the launch position. After seeing Neva, Gao Yang immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Nikolayevich. You played very well."
Neva smiled complacently. With a satisfied look on his face, he said: "although it is not a real missile, it has not been hit for decades. Finally, he has an addiction. Well, sir, when can the real missile be given to us?"
Gao Yang said: "it won't be too long. It will be delivered about the day after tomorrow. You don't have much time to get familiar with missiles. You can get familiar with missiles in two days at most, and we have to leave for Aden."
Neva waved his hand and said confidently, "it won't take two days at all. A few hours is enough."
After talking big, Neva suddenly remembered that there was Dmitri, so he immediately looked at Dmitri and said loudly, "Comrade lieutenant colonel, what do you think?"
Dmitri sighed and said, "don't call me comrade. Can't you always change this habit? But I agree with you. It doesn't take two days to get familiar with the equipment. As long as the missile is OK, we can immediately enter the combat readiness duty state."
Neva nodded and said to him, "that's it."
Gao Yang looked at his watch. Then he said to Neva and Dmitri, "we need to study the tactics and tactics. You two, pack up and go back to the station. Let's go first. After you go back, please find me and we'll study together."
Neva saluted and said seriously, "yes, comrade commander."
Dmitry shook his head helplessly, saluted Gao Yang, and said in a warm voice, "yes, sir."
Gao Yang quickly left the missile position, and then he greeted Satan's people: "our combat mode needs to be changed. Now go back and study a new combat mode."
