Unfortunately, this trick was impossible to deceive the MiG-25 radar. Although the two light spots almost overlapped, they still sent the correct command to the missile.
It wasn¡¯t until they were guided within 40 kilometers and faced with the Israeli escort fighter planes about to enter the launch position that they chose to leave immediately.
Even the latest improved Sparrow missile has a maximum speed of only Mach 4. During the flight, the speed will gradually decrease. Therefore, they want to catch up with the two missiles dozens of kilometers away that are flying north at three times the speed of sound. It is almost impossible to fly two MiG-25 fighters.
The tail engine of the MiG-25 was working vigorously and returned to Syrian airspace. Here, the four missiles have completed their mission.
" Two of them, after autonomous guidance, were confused by the opponent's escort fighter and attacked the escort fighter, causing one to be shot down, while the other two accurately hit the early warning aircraft.
The E-3 early warning aircraft, which cost hundreds of millions of dollars, was shot down, along with the air crew inside.
At this time, fireworks were going off all over the sky. The first batch of ballistic missiles attacked by Iraq arrived at important military targets in Israel. Not only the air force base, but also radar stations and key military departments, including the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv, were all there. Within range of Iraqi cruise missiles.
Since Israel wants to expand the scale of the war, Qusay will definitely not be stingy with his use of force!
The Patriot missile system, which the United States has high hopes for, achieved complete success when intercepted at the shooting range, with a hit rate of almost 100%. However, during live-fire target practice, just a problem with the fake warhead caused their interception to completely fail.
In this confrontation between the spear and the shield, the shield is a complete loser. There are many insurmountable technical problems in intercepting ballistic missiles. The United States wants to seek absolute security and be able to attack others arbitrarily while being protected from attacks by the other side. This idea is not easy to achieve.
From the evening of July 5th to the early morning of July 6th, almost overnight, the situation in the Middle East changed greatly again. Israel, unwilling to fail, used almost all of its air force in an attempt to repeat a classic in history. Battle, use a beautiful air strike to take out the Arab air power.
"It is a pity that it is no longer the past. The Arabs' air force is no longer weaker than Israel's, both in quantity and quality.
Israel's early warning plane was shot down, and almost all of Israel's air force bases have been destroyed. Israel's more than 100 fighter planes sent out, but only more than 30 came back. They only killed a dozen Arab planes. This ratio, regardless of the ratio, No matter how you look at it, Israel is a complete loser.
While achieving victory in the air, Iraqi ground forces also attacked again. Iraq's powerful First Armored Division, after resting and recuperating, quickly maneuvered southward. Almost overnight, it defeated the two Israeli armored brigades and arrived outside Jerusalem. Following it, the Saudi Second Armored Division moved Jerusalem Completely surrounded, in the early morning, the Iraqi army had launched a siege campaign.
The Iraqi 35th Armored Division in the Gaza Strip quickly dispatched to the north and occupied Ashkelon, which was empty of troops. As long as they go further east, they will be able to form a line with Jerusalem and divide Israel into two pieces.
On the northern front, the 10th Armored Division is also moving quickly. Their troops are pointing directly at the Gagali area. Although Israel still has strong armored forces in that area, because the armored forces in the Golan Heights have been eyeing them, When Israel's current situation is at its most dangerous, they can't separate their troops.
In fact, the most important issue is still the air force. The Israeli army has performed well in previous wars, and the air force has played the biggest role, especially in modern high-tech wars. If there is no air supremacy, then there is almost no guarantee of victory.
The current situation is very unfavorable for Israel. It seems that the entire Israel is in danger. Now, relying solely on Israel's own military strength, I am afraid that it is in danger of subjugating the country.
If there is no peace talks now and the arrival of the US aircraft carrier fleet, Israel will be doomed. It seems that the only way in front of them is peace talks.

"Our US military is to protect the lives and property of our people and the national interests of the entire United States. However, it is not a tool of hegemony. We can see that our current government has made mistakes one after another. force is not the final way to solve the problem, and our Middle East policy is definitely not to go against all oil-producing countries." Clinton seized this opportunity and fiercely criticized Bush's current Middle East policypolicy.
The American people must not be fooled. Now, when the U.S. economy is in a mess, the Bush administration has been trying to use force to solve problems, which has made the situation in the Middle East out of control.
The relationship between the United States and the oil-producing countries in the Middle East was frozen during Bush's term. This was the stupidest thing Bush ever did.
Now, countries in the Middle East have finally launched the most important blow against the behavior of the United States. Arab countries have announced that in view of the current attitude of the United States, which has spared no effort to support Israel, a terrorist country, Arab countries plan to gradually use the US dollar as the currency for oil settlement.
As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar. The reason why the U.S. dollar is so strong now is because if countries want to buy oil, they must have U.S. dollars. And if they want to have U.S. dollars, they have to exchange their own things with Americans in exchange for what Americans have. printed banknotes. If dollars are not used to settle oil, the dollar system will completely collapse.
¡°If only one oil-producing country said this, the United States would have sent troops to the border without hesitation, kicked open their doors, and kicked their leaders¡¯ ass. However, when all oil-producing countries in the Middle East say this, it is not so easy for the United States to take action.
"We absolutely cannot tolerate the behavior of Arab countries. Now, they have occupied almost all the land they lost in 1967, and Jerusalem is also under siege by them." Cheney said.
Bush frowned. He knew that Israel was now facing its biggest crisis. At this time, what kind of support should the United States give to Israel?
"So far, everything is normal at our garrison base in Israel. We have not been attacked by the Iraqis. Moreover, the Arabs' series of military actions are actually relatively restrained. I think their purpose is to help Palestinian statehood." Secretary of State James said: "Iraq has always avoided the expansion of the war."
"So, should we let Iraq and Israel shake hands and re-establish peace?" Cheney said: "Then our troops stationed in Israel and our interests in the Middle East must all be surrendered to Iraq? We need to resolutely We can take action on the ground to help Israel regain strategic victory. At critical moments, we can even use nuclear weapons!"
Cheney was very angry after hearing what James said. James seemed to be helping the enemy by saying this.
"The fact we have observed is that Iraq already has strategic missiles. The satellite that was launched yesterday was not a launch vehicle at all, but a ballistic missile. It used mobile cold launch technology. Although we have no evidence, Iraq This kind of weapon should have a lot to do with the Soviet Union. There are many Soviet technical personnel in Iraq. Now, the Soviet Union is almost finished. Iraq has poached a large number of talents, and there must be rocket experts among them." CIA Director William Said: "And we are not sure whether those crazy-poor Soviets will secretly sell nuclear warheads to Iraq. Even the top brass of the KGB are now busy smuggling Soviet weapons out to make money. Even if they don't Nuclear warheads and pesticide factories in Iraq can produce chemical weapons at any time."
Although William's words were not loud, the meaning behind them was enough to shock everyone. They knew that what William meant was that if the United States really used nuclear weapons against Iraq, then they would have to bear it at any time. Iraq fired retaliatory fire.
They are all familiar with Kusai's character. He must avenge himself, and he will fight back even more fiercely.
"If we use conventional force to help Israel solve the current problem, how many troops do we need to use? If we urgently deploy Turkish troops, are we confident that we can win?" Bush asked.
General Powell shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, the more important issue now is not the determination and combat effectiveness of our military, but that we have no reason to send more troops now, because, under Clinton's instigation, our increase The military budget has been rejected. Our fiscal deficit this year is too large, and military spending has greatly exceeded the budget. Our military will have to live frugally in the second half of this year."
This is the most depressing time for the military. They actually have no money!
The claims of the Arabs have led to the decline of the international status of the US dollar, which has further led to the decline of the US economy. If Bush is stronger at this time, he can persuade Congress to launch a war to boost the US economy. That's not a bad idea.
But now, it is the most critical time of the general election! For Bush, the most depressing thing is that although he is a Republican, the Democratic majority is in Congress. Although the Jewish influenceThe power is very strong in the United States, but at this critical time, Americans are obviously more concerned about their salary next month than the war half a world away.
