Chapter 1522 Iraqi Army Dragon Guard vs. U.S. Army m1a2

The US military's m1a2 armor has been replaced with depleted uranium armor with better defensive performance, which is much stronger than the armor they used before.

Especially in terms of defense capabilities, after all, this is armor technology purchased from China at a cost.

During the Iran-Iraq War, the m1 was beaten by the Chinese Longwei crying father and mother, and even suffered heavy losses by Longwei’s anti-tank missiles and armor-piercing projectiles. In recent years, the Americans have also made great efforts. of.

The depleted uranium armor-piercing projectiles of the U.S. Army flew towards the Longwei tank less than three kilometers under high pressure, and the missiles on the Longwei also flew towards this side.

The tanks on both sides are approaching at high speed, which makes the distance hit even shorter.

"Evasion!" The Dragon Guard tank, which was initially targeted by the U.S. tank shells, turned to the side under the command of the commander. Before the tank had time to deviate from its original position, the U.S. armor-piercing shells fell on the side armor of the tank's turret. Weak place.

"Boom!" The loud impact made everyone inside feel the heartbeat speed up.

The ten-layer armor layer of the Dragon Guards continuously prevents the armor-piercing projectiles that drill into the interior at high speed. The outer Chobham armor cannot resist at all. The ceramic armor layer in the middle is also penetrated. When it comes to the carbon fiber layer, The speed has decayed a lot, and the high-temperature sputtering flow caused by the armor-piercing projectile is constantly disappeared by the multi-layer carbon fiber several centimeters thick.

"Armor-piercing shells have come in!" When the tank soldiers inside saw the sharp warheads of the armor-piercing shells appearing inside the armor of the turret, even the high temperature made them feel, the soldiers approaching suddenly screamed.

"It's okay, don't worry about it! These Americans have made great progress in their armor-piercing projectile technology. They couldn't penetrate at all before..." The commander looked at the armor-piercing projectile that had penetrated several centimeters and said calmly."Continue to aim and shoot out all the missiles! Ready to fire!"

For general armor-piercing bullets, the closer the distance, the better the effect.After all, the speed coming out of the barrel will be during the flight, because the kinetic energy is constantly weakening, and the friction between the shell and the air constantly consumes the kinetic energy carried on the shell, which makes the speed decay continuously.

Few armor-piercing projectiles carry propellant.

This is completely different from the tandem warhead researched by China.

The tandem warhead will accelerate with the high explosive carried in the middle of the armor-piercing projectile when the speed of the armor-piercing projectile decreases...

The captain knew this situation, so naturally he wouldn't care.

The U.S. artillery shells continued to fall on the Dragon Guard tanks in Iraq, but they did not tear the Dragon Guard's armor as easily as the T62 tanks that destroyed other Iraqi tanks, and did not allow Dragon Guard to be hit by armor-piercing shells. , Because the high-temperature sputtering flow caused the sabotage of the tank ammunition depot.

"Fire! Continue firing!" The commander of the m1a2 tank at the front saw their shells hit Longwei through the sight glass. Except for a few dragons whose tracks were broken, they stopped in place, and the other dragons were still there. Coming quickly to his side, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

The U.S. tanks have stopped.

If you continue to move forward, the distance between the two parties will become closer.

The Dragon Guards tank also spread to the two sides at a distance of about two kilometers from the opponent, without rushing forward.

Two kilometers is the best shooting distance for armor-piercing projectiles.

The tanks on both sides were constantly driving towards both sides, and the tank gun turrets turned in the opposite direction to the tanks.

This will keep the tank gun aimed at the enemy.

Under such circumstances, the two sides did not deliberately aim at them, and the huge armored cluster battle was full of targets.

"Boom!" Every shell came out of the tank gun, whether it was a U.S. tank or an Iraqi tank, it would be shaken by the huge recoil as if it was about to turn over.

Especially the tanks of both sides are maneuvering at high speed. The tanks are turning stiffly, avoiding the other's shells and hitting their own side. At the same time, the tank turrets are constantly rotating. After aiming at one target, they begin to move towards the next. Target aiming.

The artillery shells constantly exploded close to the tanks of both sides, even on the armor of the tanks. Some tank tracks were broken and the driven wheels turned very fast, but the road wheels on the other side lost track but did not have any. Reaction, which caused the tank to start spinning.

Finally, the driver in the tank stopped turning or other things, but stopped instead.

The tanks on both sides kept blasting.While the Dragon Guards shelled at the opponent, they fired smoke grenades from the smoke grenade launchers on both sides of the main gun.

The smoke bombs of the US tanks had already been used up when Iraqi warplanes bombed.

"Request air strikes from the rear! The tanks of these Iraqis are too thick!" When receiving the previous news, the US military commander finally realized that something was wrong.

Now the two sides can't move except for the tank tracks were destroyed, and few tanks have been destroyed, and the battle cannot continue.

The opponent's tanks are three times as many as theirs. Once they can't quickly annihilate the opponent and maintain the advantage, the consequences will be disastrous!

However, now the headquarters has been scattered by the Iraqi army’s long-range rockets and missiles, and there is no way to contact them.

The tank battle on the ground is still going on, and the two sides have not achieved much success after the first contact.The number of Iraqi tanks confronting U.S. tanks is increasing.

"Order the tanks in front to outflank them from both sides, and none of them can be let go! Where did our helicopter go?" The American tank skin was much thicker than the one provided to them before, which made Mubashar very speechless. .

The performance of Longwei has not been improved, not because they do not want to, but because the Chinese are unwilling to sell them better tanks.

The American tanks have been tested in actual combat, and several years have passed now, enough for them to quickly upgrade all their tanks.

"Master, this is not the way to go, it is difficult to maintain our quantitative advantage for too long!"

As chief of staff, Ji Dohab immediately discovered the problems they faced under such circumstances."The U.S. fighter plane group has already engaged our fighter plane formation..."

In the sky at this time, the fighters on both sides were already close to fifty kilometers.

When the Iraqis were almost 60 kilometers away, they launched medium-range air-to-air missiles. These missiles were too far away and were avoided by the US F15.

The Iraqis did not launch too many. Both sides knew that these missiles could be discovered by the other side from a long distance, and there was plenty of time to avoid them.China's Changkong Lijian-11, with a maximum speed of Mach 3.3, has a flying distance of about 1,100 meters per second, and a distance of 60 kilometers, which takes nearly one minute.

"Rush up and launch missiles within a range of 30 kilometers!" Colonel Ishad led dozens of J-11s, keeping a long enough distance to attack the US military.

After the U.S. military evaded the first wave of missiles launched by the opponent, they saw that the opponent continued to pounce. At this time, their reinforcements had not come. Many U.S. troops wanted to pounce on, but were ordered to turn around by the commander, Colonel Alvir, dragging Iraq. Of fighters.

If you don't kill the opponent's fighters, the ground attack planes behind them will not be able to drop bombs on the heads of the Iraqi tanks. On the contrary, these fighters will be chased and beaten.

Old-fashioned ground attack aircraft, even if they have certain air combat capabilities, are difficult to escape under the attack of Iraq's MiG-29 and MiG-25.

"Colonel, General David ordered that we must resolve the Iraqi air force as soon as possible. Our tank unit is calling for air support. The headquarters of the 3rd Infantry Division is being attacked by Iraqi missiles and is retreating..." the command center at the rear airport , Came the order of the new commander-in-chief David Chief of Staff.

"We are facing almost three times as many advanced Iraqi fighters as we are!" Aiville said coldly, "It is very likely that there is an Iranian f14 in it!"

"This is the command of the command! Besides, you are driving our most advanced fighter! And how many weapons can they have that can shoot down our fighter? Their air defense system has been destroyed!"

After the base commander said coldly, he disconnected the communication link.

"Shoot!" Aiville cursed suddenly.

In desperation, the entire formation could only be ordered to turn and greet the Iraqis.

"Attention to all units, our task is to entangle them and wait for reinforcements to arrive. Shoot them down if you have the opportunity, and don't fall into their encirclement!" The U.S. military has lost hundreds of fighters. Iver understands their air force and does not believe it at all. This is all the achievements of the Iraqi ground forces."Ready to launch a missile!"

A pilot saw that the other party was driving an F14 before, and there was no news at all in the previous intelligence.

After the U.S. fighter planes turned around, they began to target the opponent's fleet through radar.

The aim-120 missile has an effective firing range of 48 kilometers, and now the distance between the two sides is sufficient.

Moreover, this is the most advanced medium-range air-to-air missile of the US military.

If the first wave of strikes can kill some Iraqi fighters, they may even wipe out each other.

Although, Aivel knew this was just a luxury idea.

Soon, each fighter plane fired two aim-120 missiles. After these missiles were separated from the hanging points under the fighter wings, they fell less than one meter away, and the tail engine ignited and then flew towards the target. go with.

"Long Sword-11 is ready!" Seeing that the U.S. fighter plane was flying to the back and then turned around soon, Isad was overjoyed. Seeing that the distance between the two sides was close, at the same time, the radar of the fighter plane had begun to alarm and locked, The man sneered, and once again launched a wave of Air Lijian-11 missile at the opponent...
