Chapter 597： grow mushrooms

Pershing ballistic missile launch site on the Apennine Peninsula, Italy.

The officers and soldiers of the operation were standing by, waiting for the secret key delivered by the satellite. Finally, the verification signal appeared on the screen.

The battalion commander and deputy battalion commander of the missile battalion stuffed their keys into the launch console, turned them synchronously, and the number on the console started the countdown.

Everyone's expressions are very serious. These launch processes are different from their previous launch processes, because this time, the real nuclear bomb was launched!

Outside, next to the crawler launch chassis, the milky white missile stood up long ago. When the countdown reached zero, as the launcher pressed his hand on the red button, the bottom of the missile blazed with fiery light and white mist. Up, covering the entire launch position, milky white missiles rose from the ground.

Launch is complete! The battalion commander of the missile battalion was not as relaxed as before, because he knew exactly what the launch of this missile meant. He left the command car and looked at the missile in the sky until he disappeared from his field of vision.

At the same time, the launch of the missile was again intercepted by Soviet reconnaissance satellites, which notified Iraq of an early warning.

If it is like before, the United States should launch a wave of ballistic missile attacks. What effect does a single missile have? Therefore, this incoming missile must be the most lethal one!

After receiving the information, Andre was stunned for a moment. He already knew that the most dangerous situation had arisen!

A sharp anti-aircraft alarm sounded over the whole of Baghdad, and all the citizens were evacuating to the air-raid shelter. At the same time, the S-200 anti-aircraft missile battalion on the outskirts of Baghdad also quickly prepared itself.

Several soldiers wearing gas masks pulled the pipes of the fuel truck to complete the filling of the poisonous fuel. The generator car on the side rumbled, and sufficient electricity was supplied to the large radar on the side.

If you want to intercept targets of hundreds of kilometers, the radar can detect longer distances. Therefore, the S-200 missile system has a huge radar system. In the Soviet Union, it is connected with the integrated air defense combat network. In Iraq, it can only be fought alone.

Fortunately, the early warning data has come, and they only need to point the radar in the general target direction.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

After ten minutes.

"Target found." The radar soldier shouted: "Speed ​​three, it has exceeded our interception limit!"

The S-200 missile, when designed, is mainly to intercept high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft and other targets. Although it has the ability to intercept ballistic missiles through improvement, it only intercepts short-range ballistic missiles like Scud.

The short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles have different ranges due to the different speeds at launch. Similarly, when they fall from space again, they splash down at different speeds. Short-range missiles, the speed of falling is less than Two kilometers per second, while medium-range missiles will have about three kilometers per second, and the largest ICBMs can even reach about seven kilometers per second.

The speed of interception is different, and the difficulty of interception is also different, because the reaction time left to the interception system is different.

"There is no interception window, we can't find an interception window!" a missile soldier shouted.

The so-called interception window is the most suitable interception opportunity. The interception task is completed in a predetermined airspace. Because the opponent's missiles fly fast, the time left for interception is very short.

"According to the ballistic analysis, their target was not Baghdad, but Muthana province in southern Iraq!"

When the ballistic missile is falling, the ballistic characteristics have been fixed, and the area to be splashed will also be analyzed by the computer. Through the calculation of the S-200 missile system, the information of the target's splash area is obtained.

Not Baghdad!

The S-200 missile anti-ballistic missile can only intercept short-range missiles, and it mainly relies on nuclear warheads, and such warheads are not exported to Iraq. Therefore, although the missile battalion has just made all preparations for combat, the actual The interception does not have confidence.

Not Baghdad! The information of the missile battalion reached the underground operations center in Baghdad, and Andrei immediately gave the order: "Cancel the interception."

Muthana Province! Almost all deserts are there, and American ballistic missiles, as long as they are not aimed at Baghdad!

The interception is not very sure, and now intercepting the opponent's missile during the landing stage is not a good plan. Even if the interception is successful, the wreckage of the missile will bring serious disaster to the local area. You must know that the main residents of Iraq , all converge in the two river basins. Since the American missile was launched in the direction of the desert, there is no need for the American side to intercept it in the middle, resulting in unexpected situations.

The Pershing ballistic missile flew over the Iraqi sky like a dazzling meteor, flying over the Mesopotamia, and the speed was further accelerated by the fall, reaching around Mach 2.2, and then, below it, the green scenery was over. , replaced by an endless desert.

This warhead has reached the end and continues to land. At a height of 500 meters from the ground, the internal fuze detonates. Ordinary explosives explode first. This explosion squeezes the internal nuclear material and pushes it to the ground. Together. The chain reaction happened in a short period of milliseconds, and the energy from the fission of the nucleus was released in an instant!

"Boom!" This explosion resounded throughout southern Iraq! At the moment of this explosion, a huge fireball appeared. At the center of the explosion, the temperature exceeded the sun, melting everything around it!

Then, there is the mushroom cloud that rises up. The mushroom cloud is big on the top and small on the bottom, just like a black mushroom. This is the devil from hell, which has been released!

The mushroom cloud is gradually rising. At the same time, with the explosion as the center, the shock wave is scattered in all directions. There is nothing below, but all is sand. At this time, the yellow sand fills the sky and spreads everywhere. If it hits people, it will become a bullet. Same!

The lizard under the sand, I don't know what happened, out of animal instinct, it curled up its body tightly, and then the shock wave turned its body into scum!

At this moment, it is brighter than a thousand suns, more violent than a tornado, and more terrifying than the most terrifying dark cloud. This is Pandora's box!

The light radiation disappears, the shock wave spreads out, and the nuclear pollution that remains will last for a long time. Here, it will become a dead place in the future! (To be continued.) To find this site, please search for "" or enter the URL:
