Chapter 138： Air Defense Adjustment

?It's true or false, that reconnaissance equipment was indeed created by the Soviet KGB to disgust the Americans, and the Americans can't tell the pain, but now the black box of this passenger plane is Genuine.

The black box is a device that records various data of the passenger plane, including the pilot's dialogue. In this way, as long as the black box is found, you can know the various records at the time of the plane crash, so as to determine the cause of the plane crash.

For the sake of insurance, the black boxes are all installed at the tail of the passenger plane, just at the root of the vertical tail. The Americans did not expect that since the Soviet Union salvaged the wreckage of the passenger plane's tail, they should have found the black boxes simultaneously!

These words are enough to make the US government fall into the most terrible crisis of confidence! The opposition party will even make a fuss based on this incident and criticize the Carter government!

The U.S. solemnly preached that the Soviet Union shot down a civil airliner. In order to promote justice, the U.S. Air Force even had an air battle with the Soviet Union. Now, the truth is actually deliberately arranged by the Americans! The U.S. government actually used civilian airliners to conduct reconnaissance activities, putting more than 200 people above in the most dangerous situation!

The death of these innocent passengers is not just to blame on the Soviet government! The U.S. government is also to blame!

The release of this recording was like the straw that broke the camel's back. It instantly made the U.S. government speechless and caused a sensation all over the world.

Almost as soon as the recording was made public, a large-scale demonstration broke out in the United States. In the capital, Washington, the families of the passengers who died gathered in front of the White House, asking the president to come out and explain the reason.

The United States has just been freed from the quagmire of the Vietnam War, and ordinary civilians are tired of the war. Even more tired of the government. The government swore that it was to save the people there. What happened? It was driven out by the people there. And now, the government has done this terrible thing again. It's like a terrorist hijacking a passenger plane!

A political storm began to sweep across American soil, and President Carter faced a serious problem as soon as he took office.

Moscow.

It was quiet in the office, and everyone knew that it was just the quiet before the storm.

"What happened to the air defense of Sakhalin Island?" Defense Minister Ustinov said: "The American air force almost flew to our ballistic missile positions! The 24th Air Defense Division is cleaning toilets for the Americans. Is it?"

Ustinov was very dissatisfied with this air battle, judging from the battle report. The Americans only used more than 20 fighter jets, while their own side dispatched more than 40 aircraft, and the result? The loss ratio of the two sides is actually twice that of the other side! If the MiG-25 hadn't been dispatched quickly, I'm afraid our losses would have been even more! In any case, the Homeland Defense Air Force in the Far East fought very poorly this time !

"Marshal, this American provocation put in their most advanced f-15 fighter jet, which has quite advanced performance and great engine thrust. The electronic equipment is perfect, and the performance of the missile is also much higher than that of the Vietnam War missile. , their short-range missiles have even been able to launch head-on. Medium-range missiles are also difficult to get rid of." Facing the accusations of the Minister of Defense, as the commander-in-chief of the Air Defense Force, Marshal Pavel Fyodorovich Batitsky to Ustinov.

This is the most advanced American fighter jet! If you want to fight against this kind of fighter, you need the latest fighter developed by yourself! It is a pity that the t-10 project is now progressing slowly, and it will take at least three or four years before it enters service.

"What can the air defense do?" Ustinov asked. Losing this time is not only a matter of embarrassing the Soviet Union, but also a problem that the next battle cannot be carried out! In the following battle, we must seize air dominance over Hokkaido! but now. The American air force has already gained an advantage. In this air battle, our side shot down the results. There are very few of the newest U.S. F-15s available.

"Because Sakhalin Island is the closest to Hokkaido, we must strengthen the air defense force of Sakhalin Island. We plan to exchange the 308th regiment on Sakhalin Island with the 41st regiment of the Khabarovsk 8th Air Defense Air Force. ' said Marshal Batitsky.

The 41st regiment was changed to the Sakhalin Islands because the 41st regiment was equipped with MiG-23, and the 308th regiment was MiG-21 Bis. Although the MiG-21 was small and flexible, the body was limited, and even a missile beyond the visual range was launched. No, if there is a conflict with the United States in the future, the MiG-21 has no advantages at all. The MiG-23 of the 41st regiment is the latest improved version, and its performance far exceeds that of the MiG-21.

Historically, this switch has also been carried out, but it was only in 1982, and now, due to the complicated situation in Sakhalin, the switch has been carried out earlier.

Ustinov nodded: "Well, yes, but it's not enough to just replace the 308th regiment. We also need to deploy MiG-25 fighter jets on Sakhalin Island. Only the existence of such fighter jets can suppress them. Americans on the move, and it's good for our follow-up plans."

MiG-25! Before the t-10 was completed, the MiG-25 was the most powerful presence in the Soviet air defense!

It is a pity that the heavy interceptor MiG-25 is still a high-end fighter in the Soviet Union after all, and the output is not very high. Moreover, the violent collision between the East and the West is in Europe. Most of the advanced fighters are first deployed to Europe. In the Far East, there are only two MiG-25 regiments, and the area to be defended is quite large. One is a flying regiment of the 6th Air Defense Division stationed in the Petropavlovsk Air Defense Division, and the other is The 513th regiment of the 23rd Air Defense Force.

The Petropavlovsk air defense division area is huge It has to be in charge of the main airspace of the Kamchatka Peninsula and is at the forefront of the fight against the United States. It cannot be moved there, so it can only be moved from the 513th regiment. To find ways to.

513 regiment! Thinking of the 513th regiment, Ustinov thought of Andrei, a man who can create miracles! In this report, Andre also took ten MiG-25 fighter jets from the 513th regiment to Sakhalin Island to disperse the American fighter jets.

"Let the MiG-25 fighter jets that have landed on Sakhalin be temporarily stationed there." Ustinov said: "At least until the end of this year's military operations."

"We also planned this way." Marshal Batitsky said that the maintenance of these fighter planes also needs to mobilize part of the ground staff. For the time being, these fighter planes will be deployed at the Kamenei Iluchii base, so that after take-off, Fly over Hokkaido in minutes!

"Also, promote Andrei Vladimirvich Tolstoy, the head of the 513th regiment, to the chief of staff of the Sakhalin air defense division, coordinate the command of Manitsky, and tell Manitsky that if the U.S. is also allowed to People are pressing and beating, so prepare to go back to Moscow to retire!"
