v2 Chapter 500： The ever-changing battlefield

The British soldiers stationed in Hong Kong who came to fight began to rest, and also let the specially recruited Heiyun employees relax. They promised the boss to bring back Argentine specialties. Although they captured a lot in the first battle, they always thought it was far from enough. What kind of person is the boss, how can he use this little thing to get rid of him.

So the Black Cloud employees started to take advantage of their money, and they were very interested in what other British soldiers had seized from the Argentines. In the face of pounds and dollars, the British soldiers could not resist at all. Although they knew that the war was in a state of anxiety at this time, there were still many soldiers doing business with them, which had become a fun in a boring war.

As long as the Argentines are seized from the battlefield, Heiyun employees can say whatever they want, and the price is clearly marked. This made it very interesting for British soldiers to come to the war, and it was not bad to be able to sell things while fighting.

An ordinary soldier captured a command knife and sold it to Heiyun employees for £1,000, which made the British soldiers more interested in capturing Argentine weapons.

However, at this time, the battlefield situation has already tilted towards the unfavorable side of the British. The shooting down of more and more helicopters and low-altitude aircraft has caused the British army to lose some air superiority for a while, which has provided the Argentines with an opportunity, a heavy blow to the British. Chance.

With the loss of British air supremacy, the Argentines' long-planned revenge began. After the signal of the British task force was captured by the Argentine Navy's Neptune-type maritime patrol aircraft, two Argentine Ensign attack planes deployed in Rio Grande, Tierra del Fuego, carrying Flying Fish missiles, immediately took off. After receiving aerial refueling from the Argentine Air Force KC-130H Hercules transport aircraft, the two aircraft attacked at an ultra-low altitude against the wave's tip. Only jumped at 50 miles to perform a radar search and immediately returned to low altitude, firing the carried Flyfish missile at 20 to 30 miles.

The guided-missile destroyer Glasgow, the same type of ship Sheffield, and three other radar sentry ships located in the far north captured the first jump of the Afghan military aircraft, and notified the fleet air defense command on the Invincible at the first time. Place. However, due to a false alarm that morning, the air defense command post on Invincible ignored the warning. The guided-missile destroyer Glasgow was still monitoring the approximate location of the Ensign's first jump and detected a second jump. This time, the electronic warfare equipment on the British ship received the signal from the target-seeking radar on the Flying Fish missile. Again, the Invincible judged it to be a false alarm; ignoring the Glasgow's continued "handbrake" warning.

The first missile missed the Almouth, heading towards the "disruption cloud" it fired. At this time, the guided-missile destroyer HMS Glasgow attempted to engage another missile with a seamark missile, but was unable to succeed due to a system failure. The air defense command post still classified the warning as a false positive.

However, the guided-missile destroyer HMS Sheffield was unable to detect the incoming missile in time. Due to the use of satellite phones, the shipboard electronic warfare system cannot work. Why did the shipborne radar fail to detect the incoming missile? Why didn't the ship respond to the Glasgow destroyer's warning? The reason for this is unexplainable. In the end, Sheffield's electronic warfare system crashed a second before the visual surveillance post reported the missile wake, and the ship did not deploy any countermeasures.

The Flying Fish missile hit the midsection of the Sheffield. Although the warhead fuze failed to activate, the fire exploded out of control, causing 20 casualties and 24 serious injuries. At times during the rescue Almouth moved from its position to fire anti-submarine weapons in response to a warning of a suspected incoming torpedo.

The guided-missile destroyer HMS Sheffield was abandoned hours later, and the warped wreck continued to drift and burn for six days. It sank on the high seas and became a grave marker when it was finally towed by the Almouth. The guided-missile destroyer HMS Sheffield withstands the fatal blow for the larger and more important aircraft carrier in the fleet. Any hit to the aircraft carrier would force Britain to immediately end its military operations in the South Atlantic. The course of the war is gradually heating up.

The Sheffield-class destroyer is a guided missile destroyer mainly equipped with anti-aircraft weapons built by the United Kingdom. The purpose is to serve as the air defense mission of the task force. Now it is actually sunk by aircraft, which is a bit ironic.

At the same time, it also caused a headache for the Portsmouth Shipyard that produced the Sheffield, and the introduction of ground effect aircraft was the most fierce thing they called. The voices of opposition are the strongest, mainly because they are worried that the ground effect aircraft will steal the orders that originally belonged to them. Now the Xiangjiang monster is in the limelight. On the other hand, the ships produced by their factories were directly sunk by the weak Argentines. This is not to tell the world that they made them. No weapon!

Portsmouth Dockyard was established in 1495. After the establishment of the British Navy in 1670, it became the shipyard of the British Navy. It can be said that this is the oldest and most powerful shipyard in the UK.

As the Sheffield was sunk by the Argentine Navy, all the countries that were planning to come to negotiate the introduction of modified warships withdrew. What is even more unacceptable is that the Navy also intends to reduce orders and order weapons that are more suitable for the development of the Navy.

It can be said that at this time, the domestic arms dealers in the UK can no longer influence the frontline commanders. After all, the weapons are so unsatisfactory and want me to lean towards you, that is to joke about the lives of soldiers and gamble with the future of the British Empire.

The British began to develop a defensive plan, and the Sheffield Cup was sunk. The Argentines will definitely use the air defense loopholes in this period to attack the task force, and the battlefield situation has changed. The British had completely lost their strategic advantage of occupying South Georgia at this time, and now they can only see how the Argentines play their cards.

Galtieri jumped up excitedly in the Presidential Palace at this time. This was the first time he leaked a smile in recent days. The staff of the Presidential Palace also knew that the war had been moving in Argentina's favor, and that perhaps victory was coming to them.

Today, the presidential palace is very lively, and all the senior members of the Argentine military came to participate in the combat meeting. Galtieri said with a smile: "A few days ago, the heroic Argentine Air Force took the initiative to attack the guided missile destroyer Sheffield. Just now, the intelligence department has confirmed that the ship sank. It can be said that Sheffield has since become the Argentine soldier's favorite. Victory."

"There is an excellent opportunity. We have shot down many British planes. At this time, we have basically lost air superiority. Now the anti-aircraft ship Sheffield has also been sunk. The British Navy has no ability to discharge air for a period of time. Therefore, I want the Argentine fighters to take the initiative and strike the British navy from the air."

At this time, the Minister of the Armament Department said: "Your Excellency, the French side prohibits the export of flying fish missiles to our country, so our current missile reserve is only enough to maintain two high-intensity battles."

In fact, France is not only not as simple as continuing to export the Flying Fish missiles to Argentina, but also forced to disclose the interference frequency of the Flying Fish missiles under the deterrence of NATO. As a result, the missile that shined in the Falklands War did not reach the expected sales in the end. The whole world knows how to interfere with the missile, and it is worried that once the war is out of stock, what is the use of buying it back.

Galtieri: "European and American countries are unreliable. Don't the Soviets still have a lot of weapons stored in Argentina! Just buy them from them. The flying fish are mainly used to attack British ships. As for the British aircraft, all Soviet soldiers are used. Missile attack, let the soldiers carry forward the spirit of courage and fearlessness, and victory will belong to Argentina."

When Galtieri was in the limelight right now, no one dared to question or object to his orders. Therefore, the order was issued quickly, and the British side was also planning its own actions. The ground effect aircraft was once again thought of by the British commander. Not only that, the British also urgently dispatched a batch of fighter jets from China. No one thought that a small Argentina would actually consume the UK so muchWelfare] Send you a cash red envelope! Follow vx public [Book Friends Base Camp] to get it!

Both sides are gearing up for the next round of attack. It can be said that the next battle will be a decisive battle, and neither side can afford to lose.
