Chapter 544: 8 Ton Penetration Bomb

In the air force base in the desert, the airport in the dark is like a giant beast in the desert, emitting a dim light.

In the hangar of the intruder fighter jets, air-to-air missiles were removed from the aircraft's hardpoints. Next to the fighter jets, on a shell trailer, a giant bomb nearly three meters long was parked next to it.

Beside the invader fighter numbered 10002, Zhao Yunlong was already fully dressed, waiting for the shells to be loaded on the fighter plane.

This is a penetrating bomb weighing eight tons. It penetrates the ground and strikes at a depth of up to 60 meters, and penetrates a full 60 meters thick reinforced concrete.

Compared to the twelve-ton Fort Crusher, this bomb was only small, but if it was used to deal with those ordinary underground bunkers, its lethality would be overwhelming.

However, the target of this attack was not so easy to destroy. If it wasn't for the intruders who couldn't carry the Fortress Crusher at all, they wouldn't settle for the next best thing.

The eight-ton penetrating bomb can barely be carried by the invader fighter jets. Because of the size of the bombs, the fighter jets can only be loaded with half of the fuel, otherwise the fighter jets loaded with bombs will directly cause friction with the ground.

Carrying such a bomb at the size of an Intruder fighter jet would already have limited range.

And such bombs were not originally prepared for aircraft such as Invader fighter jets. The ones that are really suitable for loading such bombs should be peacekeeping bombers or larger bombers.

In order to achieve the purpose of combat, the invader fighter can only be reluctant.

In fact, if it weren't for the size, there would be no problem at all carrying such aerial bombs with the invader's nine-ton bomb load.

The two tandem hardpoints under the fuselage can also be hung on similar large weapons.

Even nuclear cruise missiles can be mounted. The only limitation is that the bomb itself is not a thin person, but a slightly fat body.

The air-to-air missile insurance on the plane was all turned off, and then the interface connecting the fighter jet was untied, and the ground crew carefully removed the missiles one by one. Removed from the fighter plane. Placed on the small trailer of the missile.

In order to ensure that the height of the aircraft can take off with bombs, all unnecessary weight needs to be reduced.

The four air-to-air missiles and nine joint attack bombs were all dismantled and then manually pushed by ground personnel. Under the movement of the trailer, the bomb came under the belly of the fighter.

The frame of the trailer begins to raise.

Under the lifting of the hydraulic system, the bomb slowly rises, and the serial external hardpoint under the fighter plane. Connect the raised bombs smoothly.

The base of the trailer landed slowly, and everyone saw it. The load-bearing devices on the three wheels of the fighter jet all sank deeply.

The height of the fighter jet from the ground has dropped by at least half a meter. The bomb was less than half a meter from the ground.

such a height. If the fighter jet didn't release the bomb, it wouldn't even be able to land easily.

This is much larger than the size of those auxiliary fuel tanks, the eight-ton penetrating bomb. There are indeed not many fighter jets in this world that can carry such a big guy.

At the same time, in other hangars, there are a total of eight fighter jets, all of which are refitting with external weapons. This time they will take on the task of focusing on ground strikes.

There is no need for air combat at all, and there are no ground air defense weapons that can threaten them. All mission objectives are accurate to one point.

While the fighter jets were busy changing ammunition, it was on the more than 200 kilometers of Gobi from Samarra to Tikrit.

Outside the villages gathered along the Tigris River, some swaying figures in the night approached these villages under the cover of night.

Each village has a special operations team, and the sniper team has already set up a sniper point on the Gobi hundreds of meters away.

The assault team began to approach the village, and the fire team also occupied the commanding heights outside the village, ready to provide them with fire cover at any time.

This time, Zhang Xuchen dispatched a full thirteen assault teams, all of whom were the special combat elites of the Red Police Corps. The purpose was to target all the armed strongholds of the Islamic State from Samarra to Tikrit.

These strongholds are all built in the villages along the way, usually dressed as ordinary villagers like these residents.

In fact, some of the people in these villages are all soldiers of the Islamic State.

If people who don't know it very well can't develop these troops who hide soldiers among the people at all, the result will often be very tragic.

Because although these people are all outsiders, they live, work, eat and sleep with the ordinary people in the village every day.

It is impossible to distinguish the identities of these people. Without the correct intelligence channels, it is almost impossible to solve these people silently, or to send troops to Tikrit without anyone finding out.

The road from Samarra to Tikrit is built along the Tigris River. Although there are no towns along the way, there are many villages.

These villages are the best sentinel points. If you want to send troops to Tikrit, you need to take these outposts first.

Now, the entire ISIS armed forces are under the control of Baghdadi. You must know that these arrangements are not just a matter of one sentence.

Now, information about the Islamic State is no longer a secret to the Red Police Corps.

After waiting for nearly a month, it is imperative to dispatch troops, because almost five months have passed since the eight months required by the base.

The weather in the wasteland has also started to warm up recently, and the temperature has gradually dropped to minus 50 degrees. As long as it is enough to keep out the cold, it is barely possible to go outside for activities.

This also means that the cold winter in the wasteland is gradually coming to an end. It is estimated that it will only take a month for the temperature to drop to minus 20 degrees. At minus 20 degrees, the troops can already start large-scale operations. Scale up the action.

After all, as long as the temperature does not drop below minus 30 degrees, it is still barely possible to dispatch troops.

Cai Ruichen didn't have time to wait anymore. Through the analysis of the phased array weather radar, the weather and temperature of the wasteland in the next month can be basically determined.

In this world, in the next month, he will fully occupy Salah al-Din Province, and then focus on the wasteland, trying to complete the tasks required by the base within eight months.

Before doing so, he did not ask Baghdadi to withdraw all the troops from Salah al-Din Province, because such an approach would attract too much unnecessary suspicion. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
