Red Alert Somalia

Chapter 510 Destroy the Ethiopian Air Defense Network

Hundreds of invader fighters formed a formation, divided into several directions. When entering the territory of Ethiopia, they all maintained an ultra-low altitude flight attitude of 60 meters and all entered subsonic flight.

At this time, Somalia had not yet heard the news of a military strike against Ethiopia. It was not until the aircraft group arrived one by one above the target that the spokesperson of the Somali Ministry of Defense appeared and began to announce that Somalia had begun sending troops to Ethiopia.

The reason is also very simple. To rescue nearly 8 million Somali people who are in a sea of ​​suffering, and to retaliate against the Somali massacre in Ethiopia, as well as the crimes of Ethiopia’s invasion of Somalia over the years.

As soon as news of the war spread, a stern air defense alert came from Ethiopia.Compared with the mouth, Somalia's military operations are just a bit slower.

Of course, even if Somalia does not have this declaration of war, it is not an undeclared war, because the two countries have not signed a peace agreement. According to international rules, the two countries are still at war.All targeted military actions are consistent with common sense.

In the dark night sky, the war was ignited by the v-1fl supersonic anti-radiation missile launched by the pilot group.

One hundred and fifty kilometers northeast of Addis Ababa, the pilot aircraft group of the Third Wing had already locked the target.The main task of the twelve fighters in the pilot group is to destroy all radars in the Ethiopian capital region when the follow-up aircraft group starts, and to kill as much as possible the air defense missiles in the capital region.

The pilot attack mission was carried out by the Black Iron Knights Squadron of the Third Wing. When it came to the attacking airspace, the Black Iron Knights squadron commanded the attack, and each missile was locked to the captured radar signal.

In the dark, the missile detached from the pylon at low altitude.When the random missile is ignited, the passive radar guidance signal tracker of the missile warhead starts to operate after receiving the signal from the fighter plane and locks on the target it has set.

Twenty-four missiles fly across the night sky like meteors, and 18 of them have been guided by the warhead and flew towards the established target.The remaining six anti-radiation missile warheads.Start looking for passive targets.

This is to ensure that the fish that missed the net are not spared as much as possible. There are 18 radar points that have been exposed around the Ethiopian capital circle, but according to intelligence, there are all hidden passive radars, and they are always on.These six missiles were not actively guided by fighters.It is prepared for these unactivated radars.

In order to combat anti-radiation missiles, air defense radars often use methods such as not turning on, turning on less, and turning on at close range in actual combat, and try to maintain electromagnetic silence as much as possible.

Prior to this, the bait that the ground troops had released had seduced these silent radars.The special drone took off long before the launch of the missile, and flew towards the Ethiopian capital.The purpose of these baits is to fish. Except for the controller and the engine, there is nothing of value at all. There is only one purpose, and that is to give Ethiopia an attack target.

Sure enough, the air defense alarm began to sound. After the air defense radar detected that many suspicious targets in the air were approaching Addis Ababa.The Ethiopian air defense force began tracking, and many hidden radars were also turned on to increase the probability of guidance and interception.

In the air, behind the UAV, the passive radar guides of the six anti-radiation missile warheads quickly found new targets. The central control computer began to analyze and find the targets with threat levels from one to six in turn. Then the information processor inside each missile began to lock the target in turn.Under the combination of information, it prevents multiple missiles from attacking the same target.

It's like a lot of games.Under the control of the program, the monster will also judge the threat level of the player.It makes sense to know which target to attack in advance.

The decoy tactics used by the Red Police Corps are not very sophisticated, and can be said to be a very conventional tactic. Anti-radiation missiles often adopt "baiting" tactics, first deploying drones or attack aircraft to attack.The lure radar is turned on, and then the target position is quickly determined, and the anti-radiation missile is guided to destroy the target.During the battle in the Bekaa Valley in 1982, Israel successfully used this tactic. In just a few minutes, it completely destroyed the air defense radar network that Syria had worked so hard for for many years. It was a typical example of anti-radiation missile and anti-radar operations.

Ethiopia now has no fighters to wage war with Somalia to seize air supremacy. The only means that can resist are those unused air defense missiles. In those days from the Soviet Union's future Sam-5 to Sam-7, they were all owned by Ethiopian air defense forces. Main force.

Although these air defense systems are very outdated, they can also pose a certain threat to the enemy's air forces. Therefore, it is very necessary to kill these missiles to ensure that they can give full play to air strike advantages in subsequent wars.

On the ground, the air defense network composed of two air defense divisions of the Ethiopian Defense Forces Air Defense Command has not yet exerted any results. The supersonic anti-radiation missiles that skimmed at low altitudes have surpassed the relatively slow unmanned target drones. To the core of the air defense network.

The Ethiopian air defense radar can't see these low-altitude and speeding missiles at all. As a result, the air defense radar hidden in the jungle, urban buildings, and valleys is almost visible to the naked eye of the radar as a meteor across the sky. It’s too late for the missiles.

Following the direction of the radar wave, eighteen anti-radiation missiles were all ready to hit the target within the error of no more than 0.1 meters. The 50 kg tnt warhead directly destroyed each hit radar completely.

Immediately afterwards, six follow-up randomly guided anti-radiation missiles also penetrated the concealed air defense facilities at extremely fast speeds. Six radar vehicles hidden under the bushes in the suburbs were destroyed without any resistance.

However, things have not passed yet. After these anti-radiation missiles exploded, they began to release a large amount of colored smoke. Under the night vision goggles, the smoke all showed eye-catching colors, and they were accurately guided for the subsequent attack on the fleet to completely eliminate these air defense missiles.

At the same time, the Black Iron Knights Squadron is not air defense, because there are still air defense radars that have not been eliminated. After sensing the radar illumination, the fighter planes traversed a beautiful arc in the night sky and began to climb, reaching the most suitable The Black Iron Knights squadron fired another round of missiles, this time only twelve, and all anti-radiation missiles of the entire squadron were launched in this round.

The anti-radiation missile launched this time is completely different from the twenty-four missiles launched before, mainly due to the difference in size. In the last 12 missiles, one missile is twice the size of v-1fl. The model is v-1xf.Despite the different models, these twelve missiles are also anti-radiation missiles.

Moreover, it is an anti-radiation missile that can cruise for a long time in a theater and does not have supersonic strike capability. It is more like a cruise missile with anti-radiation judgment and self-attack capabilities.The full name of this missile is "pre-programmed patrol standby long-range anti-radiation missile". It has multiple functions such as decoy, information deterrence, and fire attack. It can patrol and fly over the target for a long time, becoming a new multi-purpose long-range anti-radiation missile. Radiation missiles.

The Black Iron Knights squadron did not leave immediately after launching the last round of missiles. Although they had no other means of attack, as the pilot group, they had another purpose that was to confirm that the enemy's radar was completely eliminated.

Therefore, instead of turning around, the fleet climbed to an airspace of about four kilometers and approached Addis Ababa again.

The result was perfect. The last twelve missiles were in cruise flight, and eight more targets were found. After destruction, the remaining four missiles continued to cruise in circles over Addis Ababa. In the next four hours, as soon as a new enemy radar signal appears, they will attack.If the fuel runs out, it will destroy itself.

"Guys, the target is cleared, it's up to you next." After ensuring safety, the Dark Iron Knights squadron began to return and sent a safety signal to the rear fleet.

On the ground, the First Armored Brigade had completely rested after releasing the lure drone in the designated mission. The tank was filled with fuel again and the auxiliary fuel tank was removed.Waiting for the arrival of the offensive event.

After receiving the Air Force’s anti-radar attack smoothly, Brigadier Commander Akchin ordered the troops to rush towards various important targets that had been established.

Unlike the Air Force’s strikes against high-value ground targets, their tasks are very complicated, and there will inevitably be a fierce exchange of fire.Compared with the air force, the army has always been the most tiring of the three services.

"Go!" As the time indicator flickered, Akchin directly issued an attack order to the entire army.

The nine battalions of the First Armored Brigade began to be divided into three attack directions, with the Apocalypse Tank Battalion as the leader, and the Rhino Tank Battalion, coordinated by the Mechanic Infantry Battalion, to advance toward their respective goals.

At the same time, a large number of fighters in the air had already entered the attack range when the Dark Iron Knights squadron began to return.First, a ground-attack cruise missile was launched, following the guidance position issued by the previous anti-radiation missile.The purpose of these missiles is only one, and that is to completely eliminate Ethiopia's air defense missiles.And it is the kind of attack that can never be missed.

After the missile hits the target, all fighters begin to approach at a high speed towards the planned strike target.In the first round of air strikes, in addition to paralyzing the entire Ethiopian air defense facilities, it also destroyed all Ethiopian air bases, power plants and roads and bridges in key areas at one time.
