Southern Israel, Negev desert.
At this time, the eastern sky has turned pale, and this is a night that all Israelis will never forget!
They were evacuated from Haifa on a starry night, and from the surrounding settlements of various air bases. Although it was an emergency, they were quite calm, they kept order, and they were a high-quality nation!
Many people were evacuated to settlements near the Negev desert.
Men, walk silently to the nearby recruitment point. In Israel, every man has to serve. All men have experience in using weapons. Many times, there are not enough men, and women have to go!
And now, the domestic war assembly order has been issued, and all men must fight for the future of Israel!
And in the desert dozens of kilometers away from them, several four-axle off-road heavy trucks are also slowly being deployed.
As a solid rocket, the Jericho-2 is 14 meters long, has a diameter of 1.56 meters, and has a total weight of nearly 13 tons, but its range is much higher than that of liquid rockets. With a payload of 1 ton, the maximum range can reach 1500 km.
1500 meters, enough to cover these countries in the Middle East!
Since the Soviet Union used nuclear bombs to attack Israel, Israel should also counterattack in the same way!
The missile is being erected quickly, and at the same time, the missile soldiers are also working nervously in the launch vehicle. They need to complete the preparations before this launch, especially, including the unlocking of the nuclear warhead!
Yes, it is a nuclear warhead. This time, we will launch a nuclear bomb to attack the enemy!
Time passed little by little, solid rockets saved the time of refueling, and if they didn't change the launch position, they could launch the missile within five minutes! And now, it only takes fifteen minutes!
Missile phase, ready to launch!
At this moment, the sharp air defense alarm suddenly sounded, and the Xiaolushu air defense missile on the side of the missile position immediately began to turn, heading in the direction of the early warning, preparing for an emergency lock.
Although they don't pay much attention to air defense, as a missile unit, they are still equipped with a small slack tree air defense missile company and a "Vulkan" anti-aircraft gun company. This is a short-range air defense system developed from the Sidewinder missile, with a range of only three kilometers!
And almost at the same time the air defense alarm sounded, four Su-25 attack planes flew over!
The two Su-25 attack planes easily launched ground-to-ground missiles five kilometers away, and the Xiaolushu anti-aircraft missile positions and anti-aircraft artillery positions fell into a sea of fire in an instant!
At the same time, two other Su-25 attack aircraft have approached the Israeli missile position from the other direction!
"Quick, fire now!" shouted the Israeli commander.
Running out of time! Put away the missiles immediately and run away? Do not make jokes! How can a truck outrun a plane!
Now, there is only one way, before the other party does not launch missiles, shoot out the missiles of one's own side!
"Ignition, Ignition!" The urging sound kept coming, so the launcher could only terminate the unfinished program and immediately pressed the ignition button!
At the bottom of the missile, there was a white smoke, and the body of the Jericho-2 missile trembled, ready to rise from the ground!
"Boom!" At this moment, a "Cyclone" 9m120 supersonic laser-guided anti-tank missile had already flown out of the launch tube and flew towards the Jericho missile here! With the arrival of the anti-tank missile, the Jericho-2 missile, under the strike of this missile, immediately exploded!
At the same time, several other Jericho missiles, spewing flames from the tail, have begun to climb upwards!
Take off, take off!
The solid fuel was burning rapidly, the missile began to climb upward, and just after flying more than ten meters from the launch pad, a Jericho missile exploded in the air with a bang!
Tornado anti-tank missiles can not only attack ground targets! Its maximum range is 8-10 kilometers, it can penetrate 1,000 mm thick armor, and at the same time, in addition to being used for anti-tank, it can also be used to hit air targets with a speed of less than 800 kilometers per hour!
In other words, when necessary, it is still an air-to-air missile!
Now, the whirlwind missiles are aimed at the missiles that are really in the launch stage. These missiles are not fast enough to become the target of the attack in the ascent stage!
The Israeli missile soldiers responded very quickly. Just after the missile was launched, they immediately put away the hydraulic device next to them, then started the launch vehicle and moved immediately!
The targets of those planes overhead were missiles. After the missiles were killed, the missile launcher was useless. However, they escaped not because they were afraid of the plane overhead, but because of the blown up missile!
These missiles all carry nuclear warheads! Although the missile is now destroyed and the nuclear warhead has not exploded, but With the explosion of the missile, the nuclear material on these nuclear warheads will definitely cause serious radiation!
Their launch vehicles can't resist this kind of radiation, they have to leave quickly, the sooner the better!
At the same time, after all the missiles just launched were reimbursed, the Su-25 formation quickly left the airspace of this right and wrong place.
Time, so quickly, that the Israeli missile troopers had no idea how the Soviets discovered them.
In theory, the early warning aircraft has the ability to find ground targets, but even if it can be found, it is only a bright spot on the early warning aircraft, and it is impossible to identify the target at all. At the same time, it can only find moving targets. Filtered out as clutter!
And now, the Soviet early warning aircraft will never find them. What is that?
Of course, the battlefield surveillance aircraft!
Effective monitoring of the battlefield is an important part of mastering the entire battle situation! In this regard, the United States has already tried it in the early days, which is Grumman's strange-looking ov-1 "Mohawk".
This is a battlefield surveillance aircraft developed by the US Army in the 1950s. It has served in the US Army for decades, participated in the Vietnam War, and even the Gulf War. It is an excellent observation aircraft.
After that, the United States updated their equipment and purchased the more advanced e-8 joint star battlefield surveillance aircraft. Compared with the ov-1 that flies around at ultra-low altitudes, this battlefield surveillance aircraft uses Boeing 707 as the chassis. , using phased array radar to monitor the situation on the battlefield.
It is not an early warning aircraft, it is not a surveillance air, it is mainly a real-time wide area surveillance and long-range target attack command capability to provide indications and alerts of progress and target changes.
