The same problem was not just Barak, but Popov, the Soviet Army's chief of staff, who was standing on the btr-70 armored vehicle in the Bush on a hill not far from the fighting area, almost screamed out.
On one side of him, commander Shaojin of the 44th battle group of the tribal army, who was using radio to command the tank group to pursue, immediately dropped his radio, picked up his telescope and looked at the battlefield. He only saw a t-55 tank whose turret had been overturned, and it was very abrupt with thick smoke in the tank torrent.
"Missiles? No, according to the information from South Africa, due to the arms embargo, Europe has cut off the arms trade with South Africa, and the only Milan anti tank missiles are left in South Africa. " Shaojin looked for a long time and shook his head slightly, but his tone was uncertain.
"Will it be the anti tank missile developed by South Africa itself? After all, their military industry foundation is good." Popov reminds me.
Shao Jin nodded: "it's possible, but I don't think there will be a lot of them. A combat reconnaissance battalion should not exceed five. We can afford the loss."
Shokin was right. His 44th battle group had eight t-62 tanks, twelve t-55 tanks, twelve btr-70 armored vehicles and twenty-two Toyota pickup trucks. Roughly speaking, it was equivalent to a reinforced battalion of the Soviet army, which was superior to the allied army in terms of strength and weapons.
In addition, there are at least three neighboring forces of the same size around. In this case, Shaojin is fighting to consume, but also the opposite coalition army, which only focuses on light weapons.
What's more, the style of the fighting nation has always been desperate for victory. It's just a few old tanks, which I can afford. As for the soldiers inside Angola is short of everything but black corn, so
"Don't hesitate, keep on attacking, right Keep the formation and make a breakthrough... " Shaugin picked up the radio and gave the order without hesitation. The tank group, which was flustered by the destruction of a tank, instantly restored order and began to rush towards the Bush where the Weisberg battle group was hiding.
However, the tribesmen's tankers were not the professional ones of the Soviet army after all. Shaojin had to take the trouble to command everything by radio in order to keep the whole offensive formation intact: "yes Yes Car number six, fill in the vacancy in front Okay, car 12. What's the matter with you? Why did you deviate from the line again? Next time, I promise I'll shoot you. No.7 and No.15 will stop and fire at the Bush in front Well What's that... "
As an expert in armored warfare, Shaojin, holding a telescope in one hand and a radio in the other, was adjusting the advancing tank group to its best state when seven or eight red triangular aircrafts sprang out of the Bush less than two kilometers away from the tank group.
When Shaojin saw this, he was stunned. Just as he wanted to see what it was, the two aircrafts had already jumped into the air and immediately fell down at top speed. With a nearly vertical angle, they directly stabbed at the roof of No. 7 and No. 15 tanks, which had just stopped for firing.
Just listen to "boom ~ ~ boom ~ ~" two loud sounds, two intact t-62 tanks were scrapped.
"What missile is this? How can you attack Seeing this, Shaojin's stubble covered face turned white. The tank is famous for its strong armor. However, in order to pursue mobility, the thickness of armor around the tank is not the same. Facing the enemy, it is the last one naturally, and the top cover is rarely directly attacked, so the armor here is very weak.
Because of this, as long as an anti tank weapon hits the tank's top cover, it's basically the same as hitting a gourd.
Now seeing two t-62s being opened proves that this missile in South Africa's hands is not a traditional sense of frontal rigidity, but a shameless greeting to the weakest gate of the tank, which is absolutely a nightmare for his tank group.
Just as Shaojin was thinking about whether to shrink his forces and wait for reinforcements, three drones dived again. With the sound of "boom ~ ~", a t-55 tank turret was raised high, and the flames of the explosion burst out two or three meters high.
However, when he saw this scene, Shaojin breathed a sigh. Only one of the three missiles hit the target. This shows that the accuracy of the South African missile is not enough, especially for the moving tanks. It seems that the precision is pitifully low.
"As long as there are shortcomings!" Shaojin seems to find the main point, immediately picked up the radio, ready to order the tanks scattered at the same time, increase horsepower, directly rushed past.
But before he could speak, Popov beside him exclaimed: "look, commander The two missiles that missed just now are flying again. "
Hearing this, Shaojin quickly raised his telescope and looked in the direction of Popov's finger. After seeing the situation clearly, his brain, which was still running at a high speed, was suddenly braked and became a blank.
Just now, the two missiles missed the target, crossed the tank group from low altitude, climbed again, and then fell vertically. The engine compartment of a t-55 tank was hit, caught fire and was scrapped.
The other one still missed the target, but just like a long brain, it continued to pull up again, and then found out the target's vertical fall. Finally, a t-62 tank was completely scrapped with a "boom ~ ~" sound.If it's just these two cases, the key point is that the seven or eight such things launched by the coalition army just now are all operated in this way. If they can't hit, they quickly pull up, and then continue to attack with the top cover. Even when Shaojin saw that one of them missed the target six times in a row, he still repeatedly pulled up and dived, until he broke a t-55 into scrap iron.
It's self homing. It's flexible and maneuverable. The key is to continuously re select the target. My God, South Africa's missiles are so advanced. That's all right. The problem is that there are so many of them.
Wait, why are there so many missiles in South Africa?
Shaugin, who had his brain knocked down by the scene before him, finally realized that the South Africans seemed to have more than five missiles. In addition to the automatic unlocking and relocking of the target's top cover attack, this battle was a fart.
He quickly picked up the radio, switched to the call channel of the neighboring troops, and began to shout: "I need artillery support. The location is Commander, be careful... "
When Shaojin was looking at the map and preparing to report his coordinates, he heard Popov's cry in horror, and he was rushed into the armored car. At the same time, there was an explosion in the sky. Countless white phosphorus burning lights scattered over the hills. The next moment, the high temperature lit up the withered shrubs, and in the twinkling of an eye, the hidden hills of Shaojin and others were engulfed .
The tanks, which had lost nearly half of their tanks, were in a panic when they found that their commander's position had been burned by a fire. The weak willed black millet could not care about anything else any more. They turned the car around and left.
Seeing this scene in the Bush, wesberg put down his telescope and grinned at Barak: "what's up? Better than a missile! " Then he pulled the radio and ordered in a deep voice: "pursuit!"
