Chapter 1529

A large early warning aircraft is at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, monitoring cruise missiles launched from two different directions.

Various equipment on the early warning aircraft are working, recording the different flight trajectories and various parameters of the missiles launched from the air and the warship.

Farther away, two electronic reconnaissance planes are also working.

Whether it is an early warning aircraft or an electronic reconnaissance aircraft, the purpose of existence is to ensure that the flight trajectory of the missiles launched is consistent with the original preset, and to continuously transmit data to a missile guidance system heading for Baghdad.

During the flight, the cruise missile uses these continuously transmitted data to modify the deviated orbit value to ensure that it will not be detected by the Iraqi early warning radar during the entire process.

Cruise missiles are not particularly fast.

It’s just flying at subsonic speeds.

The F-117 formation, which is about to enter the airspace of Baghdad, has been dispersed according to the areas where their respective targets are located, ready to attack at any time.

In a tightly air-defense city like Baghdad, if fighter planes are still flying in large formations, they will be easily spotted by the radar network of ground air defense firepower.

Although the early warning radars used by Iraq are all old products of the Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s, and the technology is relatively backward, it can still prevent the huge formations of fighters in the sky from being completely invisible.

It is not easy to completely make the F-117 invisible on the air defense radar. At least, the current US technology has not solved this problem.

Colonel Studer has been staring at the screen of the fighter plane, calculating the distance between his position and the target position.

Only two F-117s followed him.

Before entering the Baghdad airspace, the 12 fighter jet formations were divided into 4 3-aircraft formations.

In the final attack, the formation will further separate and attack targets throughout Baghdad.

Seeing getting closer and closer to the target, Colonel Studer began to gradually lower the flying height at the predetermined position according to the plan.

The lower the altitude, the more nervous he is, worrying that he will be spotted by ground air defense radar.

Colonel Studer knew clearly that just outside Baghdad, he had passed two Sam-2 anti-aircraft missile launch positions.

Previously, through military satellites and electronic reconnaissance aircraft and other reconnaissance equipment, we have been conducting detailed and thorough investigations of these targets in Iraq to ensure the accuracy of intelligence.

If the anti-aircraft missile launch positions can be destroyed first, the air concealed bombing operations will be safer.

The current mission of the F-117 formation is not to destroy Iraq’s anti-aircraft missile launch positions. There are more important targets waiting for them to blow up.

Colonel Studer’s target was the Iraqi National Defense Building.

The Iraqi National Defense Building has a telephone network hub that connects the whole country and is the most important command center of the Iraqi army.

Once the command system is destroyed, the command system of the entire Iraqi army will be paralyzed.

Without the command system, the high-level Iraqi orders will not be transmitted to all Iraqi troops in the first place.

Similarly, the situation encountered by all troops cannot be immediately reported to higher levels.

The F-117 stealth attack aircraft was lowering its height while quickly approaching the target.

It is now two o’clock in the morning, and Baghdad has fallen into a deep sleep.

The well-developed lighting system makes the entire night sky of Baghdad emit a strong light.

The Iraqis did not know that the U.S. military would bomb the capital in the first place.

Therefore, the residents of Baghdad fell asleep.

Although the country may be at war with the coalition forces, ordinary people have never thought that the US military will bomb the capital Baghdad as soon as possible instead of attacking the frontline forces.

Baghdad’s air defense network has been operating, and the early warning radar has been fully activated long ago, and it is operating frantically.

These F-117 stealth fighters in the sky were not detected by the air defense radar, but the targets in the air showed very small on the radar.

The enemy’s stealth fighter was shown on the radar screen, but the radar soldiers had no idea what it was.

The reflection cross section is too small, a tiny point. In the radar soldiers’ cognition, only flying birds can have such a small reflection cross section.

Nor can it be said that the air defense forces are not responsible, but that everyone is too tired.

Since the 15th, all Iraqi military units have been on duty for combat.

It has now entered the early morning of the 17th, and a full 48 hours have passed.

All the officers and soldiers have hardly left their posts, and many people can only take the opportunity to take turns to rest with the people around them.

At this time, no one has the energy to seriously study what these small dots appear on the radar.

No one will study how so many birds fly randomly over Baghdad at night.

Colonel Studer and the two nearby F-117s dispersed after approaching the sky above the Iraqi Defense Building, and continued to lower their flying altitudes.

During the whole process, the F-117’s flight altitude has dropped to 3000 meters, and Baghdad is still very quiet.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

No stern air defense sirens sounded.

There was no anti-aircraft firepower to fire into the air.

Colonel Studer looked at the time, and it was about the same as the expected attack time, and other units should have reached the attack area.

Even if it doesn’t arrive, I can’t wait.

Immediately, according to the procedure, turn on the fire control radar, communication channel, etc., and call all units: “Prepare to attack.”

The other F-117 fighters did not reply.

Before reaching the sky above the target, the pilots had begun to aim at the target on the ground.

At night, these goals don’t seem very obvious.

With the GPS global positioning system, as well as the target photos taken by the reconnaissance aircraft in the night sky, the pilots can clearly see the situation of the ground target from the fire control radar that has just been turned on.

Colonel Studer directly framed the building that was completely indistinguishable from the photo, and opened the launch button safety cover.

There is a dense building around the Iraqi Defense Building.

Only the middle building was delineated, and the flying altitude was quickly lowered again.

When the fighter plane descended to an altitude of 900 meters, Colonel Studer opened the bomb bay door closed in the belly and pressed the bomb release button without hesitation.

When Colonel Studer pressed the bomb release button, the F-117 bomb bay door had already opened, and two 908 kg heavy aviation bombs fell from it in an instant.

These bombs are powerful and are also specially developed for the F-117 stealth attack aircraft.

In the Panama War, these bombs have fully demonstrated their power, and only one can destroy the Iraqi defense building.

To ensure the effect, Colonel Studer dropped two bombs directly.

Two other F-117s, which were several kilometers apart, dropped aerial bombs on ground targets at the same time.

The moment the bomb was dropped, Colonel Studer did not even see the result, so he slammed the joystick to make the fighter climb up quickly.

Low altitude is too dangerous!

Even if a fighter plane is rubbed against an anti-aircraft gun on the ground, it may crash.

The same is true for other F-117s, no one has any hesitation.

He just lost the bomb and drove the fighter plane up and headed for the next target.

“Boom~Boom~Boom…”



The huge aerial bomb exploded after the F-117 fighter plane climbed hundreds of meters.

The fire from the violent explosion illuminated a large area around it.

The light even illuminates Baghdad instantly.

A series of explosions made the silent Baghdad wake up instantly and become noisy.

“Boom~Boom~Boom…”

A series of explosions sounded from all over the city of Baghdad.

Many of the citizens of Baghdad who were still asleep were killed in their sleep…

The violent explosion quickly caused all parts of Baghdad to start burning.

“Woo…”

The stern air defense sirens finally sounded.

Fire trucks and others also began to dispatch.

“Boom! Boom! Boom…”

The rapid and dull anti-aircraft guns began to fire into the dark sky, and the sound of the guns popping out of the guns instantly resounded across the night sky of Baghdad.

“Da da da……”

The anti-aircraft gun also rang.

The bullets fired by the anti-aircraft anti-aircraft machine gun pulled out bullet marks in the night sky.

Baghdad was instantly illuminated by various air defense fires on the ground when all air defense fires were on.

With intensive air defense firepower, there is no idea where the target is.

The air defense forces that have been on high alert since the 15th, the officers and soldiers at this moment do not care whether there is a target in the air or whether they can hit the target, and they are madly pouring all the ammunition into the night sky.

“What’s the matter, have the coalition forces hit Baghdad?”

Silly Damu was shocked when he heard the explosions and the stern air defense sirens constantly ringing around.

He really couldn’t understand. There was no news before, but Baghdad was full of explosions and air defense fires.

In all directions in Iraq, the president personally arranged and arranged a tight air defense system.

The air defense radar did not show any warning, allowing the U.S. and coalition air forces to break through to Baghdad and bomb the Iraqi capital!

“These damn…”

“Contact Ahmad immediately and ask him what is going on. Does he still want to be the Minister of Defense?”

Silly Damu calmed down quickly.

Ask his subordinates to call Ahmad and ask the Minister of Defense what happened.

As soon as the president finished speaking, his subordinates reluctantly reported: “Your Majesty, as soon as the explosion sounded, I called the Ministry of National Defense, and I couldn’t make the call…”

“The National Defense Building was bombed?”

The president was stunned for a moment.

Underground of the National Defense Building, there is a command center for the entire Iraq.

Once something goes wrong, the command system of the Iraqi army will be completely paralyzed.

“Give me an order to repair the line immediately… All the air defense forces dump all the ammunition, no matter what the source of them, they will be shot down for me.”

The President responded quickly.

“In addition, order the troops on the border to launch a counterattack against the coalition forces…”

The assistant wanted to tell the president that the order could not be passed on now.

But looking at the president’s distorted face, without saying anything, he walked outside.

The various air defense units do not need anyone to order, they are all madly pouring ammunition into the sky aimlessly.

Even the Sam-2 and Sam-3 missile launch positions are also preparing to launch anti-aircraft missiles.

“Lieutenant Colonel, can’t lock the target, how to launch?”

A Sam-3 air defense missile launch position, the commander asked his subordinates to launch the missile.

The subordinates told the commander helplessly that they did not attack the target at all.
