Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 464 Shocking Somalia Military Parade (Part 2)

Standing upstairs, beside Li Lan, the senior officials of the Somali military and political parties stood next to him in turn.

Watching the ceremony downstairs, the neatly organized squares pass through the solemn avenue in turn. Following the official army team and the honor guard of the three services, from the Red Police Corps and the three armies of the Red Police Corps, they also pass through the avenue in turn.Following the Red Police Regiment’s squadron, is the cadet’s squad consisting of the first Somali military academy. After half a month of training, although the rhythm of the team is not as neat as the previous squadron, the momentum must be It's a bit weaker, but it's also pretty.

After the cadets, the garrison came to the field. In this military parade, the garrison has four squads, divided into four echelons of sea, land, air, and police. Compared with the red police corps, there are fewer special forces, special police, and submarines. , Missile troops, paratroopers and many other special arms teams.

However, for the people up and down the Guanli Building, no matter how wonderful the trekking team is, it is only an appetizer. The real highlight is the equipment team behind.

Downstairs, there are six special viewing areas temporarily built. The personnel in these areas are all special guests of the Somali government. Except for representatives of various tribes in Somalia, the rest are foreigners.

Some of these foreigners are reporters from well-known international media, and the Somalia reporters of the four major Western news agencies are all on the viewing platform. In addition, reporters from mainstream media in other countries, such as Xinhua News Agency, TASS News Agency and other international newspapers are also receiving Invited.Many international non-profit military forums are also invited.

In addition to reporters, in the special viewing area, there are military representatives from all over the world who will act as professionals.Watch this military parade up close.Among these people, there are also many Somali military personnel.

to be honest.In this military parade, foreign representatives want to see mainly Somali military equipment.Otherwise, they won't come here to soak up the sun.

After all, the war in Somalia was like this. Everyone is wondering how many weapons and equipment in Somalia are, and what kind of equipment is no weaker than the US military.With these curiosities officially, many countries must have a place to squeeze their heads.

Li Lan did not refuse, and accepted it very generously. Moreover, the Somali national television station also adopted the whole live broadcast of this grand ceremony.And allow other countries to broadcast.

From the beginning of his speech, the live broadcast has been carried out. There are more than 80 national TV stations in the world. Among them, African countries have the ability to broadcast. Except for those who do not deal with Somalia, they have carried out a very high-profile mainstream. Channel relay.

On the Internet, the Somali Ministry of Defense website, which the Somali government has just opened to the outside world, also broadcasts live broadcasts on the homepage of the website.Under the strong network traffic of the assistant.The website is always in a smooth flow, even if the website has attracted the onlookers of nearly tens of millions of military enthusiasts all over the world in a short time, the smoothness of the website is still not hindered.The video playback is still extremely smooth.

And the assistant is also specially below the video.A forum-style communication area has been opened, where all visitors can reply to the content of the video or post comments.

but.None of this has any impact on the military parade at the scene, and the most critical part of the military parade continues.

The footsteps of the safari team are far away.When everyone was eagerly looking forward to it, the square-shaped weapon team in the distance appeared slowly in people's sight.

They are placed in huge displays on both sides of the parade square.It also showed a long team of equipment. Under the roar of the engine, as a large number of chariots advanced, the earth seemed to tremble under this powerful force.

At this time, the voice of a military parade narrator sounded in the silent square. As the equipment slowly passed through the viewing hall, this voice began to spread to hundreds of thousands of people in the square, TV sets and tens of millions of viewers on the Internet. Introduce the situation of the equipment team.

The first thing that came to everyone's eyes was the Hummer team with all-color khaki camouflage, which was different from the camouflage colors of China and Russia, because the colors of the African region were basically khaki, and the camouflage of the Red Police Corps also moved closer to this color.

"The wheeled light tank team is the most basic combat composition of our Somali National Defense Forces. Their rapid excitement and flexible battlefield response have become one of the important members of the National Defense Forces Army combat series..."

Under the leadership of the leading Hummer, a total of sixty-five Hummers produced from the base in the eight-by-eight team behind, slowly passed in front of the Guanli Building amid the sound of commentary and magnificent music.With the same salute, the officer in the lead car waved his right arm forcefully, followed by the machine gunner in the convoy.

Under countless gazes, the first equipped square team passed the Guanli Building at the same speed as the foot square.Following the climate is a series of side teams of armored vehicles.

In this military parade, Somalia will show 30 equipped teams. The Hummer that has just passed is just the first cold dish platter behind the appetizer.

Hummer, this equipment will not cause any sensation, because this type of tank is in service in most countries around the world, it is nothing more than the difference between maneuverability and protection. The cars are not much different.

The armored vehicle team that appeared one after another did not cause much sensation. Many materials and pictures related to Somalia's weapons and equipment have been widely disseminated on the Internet.From the most basic wheeled infantry fighting vehicles to wheeled assault vehicles, they are all common types of weapons on the weaponry list of countries around the world.

The possession of these weapons in Somalia is an extremely normal thing in the eyes of the current world.

Among the wheeled tanks, there are still a few pieces of equipment that appeal to many people, that is, the combined missile and artillery air defense team in the tank, and the medium-range surface-to-air air defense missile tank and wheeled anti-tank tank. , This also makes many people call wonderful.

However, the layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.Many people also instantly saw a very surprising fact in these tank teams, that is, Somalia is absolutely in the world in terms of tank module design.Because no matter how the weapon types of these tanks change, the tank's turf remains the same.But being able to install such a complicated weapon module is extremely rare in the world.And it can be on a tank site.More than five weapon modules have been installed according to operational needs, and all have been tested in actual combat.This is the only one in the world.

Next, what surprised those senior military personnel is that in terms of tracked tanks, the wheeled tanks in front can be exactly the same, except that the wheeled tanks are replaced with tracked tanks, and the weapon modules are not different. Like the wheeled tanks, the tracked vehicles are all of the same type.

The difference in tonnage between the two tanks is not small.But the weapon module is still universal.This is a very surprising thing, because this approach is one of the standards that countries all over the world hope to achieve when studying new weapons.After all, using the same weapon module can not only save a lot of construction time, but also save a lot of construction costs.

From these teams, it is not difficult to see that Somalia has achieved very good results in this regard.

Next came the tank team. Somalia's tanks are well known to the world, and there are two types in total.One is a rhino main battle tank with a tonnage of about forty tons.There is also a mysterious main battle tank with a total combat weight expected to exceed 70 tons.

The rhino tank is already very familiar all over the world, but about this mysterious heavy main battle tank has attracted a lot of curiosity.

During this war, many videos of war scenes were circulated on the Internet.Countries and military fans all over the world have shown great interest in the ability to compete on the battlefield with the world's best tank, the m1a2.

Wedge-shaped turret.The height is about the same as the Abrams, and the caliber ratio is higher than most main battle tanks in the world.The firepower performance and strong defense capabilities on the battlefield are not below m1a2.The encounters of the two tanks.It's basically a half-point result.

For this reason, "Global Defense Weekly" also placed this tank in the same position as the m1a2 based on the performance of the tank on the battlefield, and at the same time ranked second in the world, only behind the latest improvement of the German Panther tank, the Rhino The tank is ranked behind the Russian t-90.

Today, after these two tanks are put on rubber tracks, they are displayed in front of the world in the form of square teams. The trembling of the earth becomes very obvious at this moment.The appearance of a total of 72 tanks also caused the greatest cheers from the beginning of this military parade to the present.

Especially those Somalis in the square and in front of the TV, could not hold back the boiling blood and cheers, which gradually pushed the atmosphere of the military parade to the top of the military.

Next, the appearance of each weapon and equipment makes everyone excited.

The tank killer, this long-range fire strike support weapon similar to a self-propelled artillery, closely follows the apocalypse tank, and its long caliber ratio overwhelms many self-propelled artillery in the world.The performance on the battlefield, this self-propelled artillery did not disappoint, relying on the ultra-long-distance range, during the war, more than a few times to suppress the US self-propelled artillery.If it were not for the support of the long-range guided rocket launcher system, the US military would have no advantage in combating bombardment with self-propelled artillery.

This is also the first time this impressive long-range artillery strike system has been shown to the world, and the legends and messages about it have been uploaded on the Internet for more than two years. From the time when Bosasso was attacked, this artillery figure It was photographed by satellites and spread wildly on the Internet. Today the world finally has the most intuitive perspective to observe this weapon.

However, this excitement was only temporary, because the weapon team that appeared behind eventually brought the atmosphere of the military parade directly to the top.

All this began to be very obvious after the appearance of the shotgun long-range rocket launcher system team.

Observing the ceremony downstairs, the NATO member affairs observers who gathered together started talking as soon as the shotgun appeared.

"I originally thought that this long-range strike weapon in Somalia was developed based on China's ws-2d or sy-400 long-range rocket launcher. It is a technology supported by China. Now it seems that this long-range rocket launcher system is more like ours. The look of m270 after major changes. It is another shameless copycat..."

"I can't see that, based on the comparison of data from this war, this long-range rocket has strong guidance capabilities. In terms of accuracy, it is no worse than the m270, and the caliber is also larger than the m270. You know, the battle of the m270 is all heavy. It is already very big. Each of the twelve launch tubes has been expanded by ten millimeters in caliber, which does not affect the maneuverability of this rocket launcher itself. If this is still a copycat, then what is our m270 equipped?"

"There are already detailed combat data on the battlefield. In many respects, this rocket launcher and m270 are also mixed. It can only be said that the group that developed this weapon does have a very strong technical accumulation. Even if it is a complete copy, Being able to be so powerful on the battlefield is enough to explain too many problems. After all, how many countries in the world can copy such equipment?"

...

Amidst all kinds of discussions, the follow-up phalanx had the turn of the missile troops.

In this war, the performance of the Somali missile force was as brilliant as every weapon.

The first thing that appeared was the air defense missile team, led by two jeeps, and 20 air defense missile vehicles in the back lined up in a 4x5 rectangular team and passed the observation building neatly.

On the missile launch vehicle, people can clearly see the above model designation-v-1dk. Many people are not unfamiliar with this missile, because this missile has had a hateful performance in this war.Many coalition fighters were shot down by this missile. At the beginning of the war, the coalition's watchtower early warning aircraft fell under this missile.

However, until today the most complete aspect of this weapon has not appeared before the eyes of the world.

If you have to give this weapon a comment, its shape is a bit similar to the s-300 reduced type. There is a way to change the Hongqi-12 type of air defense missile into a vertical launch mode.As for the detailed data of this surface-to-air missile, there is no detailed explanation.However, based on its performance on the battlefield, it is not difficult to infer that the effective interception range of this surface-to-air missile is almost within a radius of 50 kilometers.And there is a lot of information telling the world that the 16 vertical launching units on the light stealth frigate (sea scorpion) of the Somali Navy are equipped with this air defense missile.

There is no need to guess for the missiles that follow closely, because this air defense missile showed a very good side on multiple battlefields in the Somali war.Whether in naval vessels or in ground interception, this v-1fk-coated area air defense missile is no worse than any area air defense missile in the world. On the contrary, it has achieved remarkable results in terms of record.It is perfectly possible to compete in the international arms market with the Aster of Europe, the Patriot of the United States, the S-300 of Russia, and the Hongqi 9 of China.

In the eyes of many international military observers, if Somalia does not have this excellent regional interceptor missile, then in the missile strikes carried out by the coalition forces on Somalia, the Bagua City has become a ruin.Therefore, this air defense missile is also known as the key to the deadlock in this war.
