Chen Feng was flying his B14CN fighter plane and was surrounded by excitement at this moment. Two hours ago, his Ninth Hainan Division was mobilized and flew from Hainan all the way along the coastline to the northeast. This was not an ordinary transition mission, but an escort mission - escorting the Air Force's bomber unit.
Of course, the Air Force itself has escort fighters, but considering that the battle that may break out is at sea, HNA has no choice but to take action. Moreover, this operation is not trivial and of great significance. HNA mobilizes the elite of the entire army, which naturally must include the Tomcat fleet of the 9th HNA Division that has participated in actual combat.
"Father, my son is going to complete the mission that you have not completed." Chen Feng held the joystick tightly, feeling that he was full of power, as if his father who had sacrificed long ago was watching him at this moment and passed on his power to he.
Conquering Taiwan is a great achievement that every PLA soldier dreams of.
"This is the Thunder Cat Brigade. I have seen the escort target, the Wang Hammer Bombing Brigade." Chen Feng saw the target of protection in his sight and said through the communicator.
"Attention, Thundercat, we must strictly monitor the air situation and do not allow any enemy fighter plane to threaten our bombers."
"Thundercat understands."
In fact, Chen Feng doubted whether those on the other side could detect their large fleet. The Air Force has dispatched a luxurious fleet of electronic warfare aircraft to begin electronic suppression operations against the Taiwan Army. The Taiwan Army's current radars and various communication facilities should have been affected to varying degrees. In this case, the Taiwan Air Force It is impossible to determine where pL is. Even if it discovers that all communications have collapsed, knows that something is wrong, and takes off fighter planes to fight, it is estimated that it will not be able to find where the other party is.
"The gap is too big, it's not enough to see at all." Chen Feng thought to himself. The equipment level of the entire army has improved too fast in the past few years, while the Guo army has basically remained unchanged, and the original quality advantage has been offset at this time. Oh no, let's not talk about offsets. The combat power of the Guo army is estimated to be less than a fraction of the pLAR spoon, and it is a real fight against the fifth scum.
In Chen Feng¡¯s view, attacking the fruit army is just a little more troublesome than fighting the Malaysian government forces. Considering that the scale of this dispatch may be unprecedented, overall it may be easier than the last time they traveled thousands of miles to attack Malaysia.
The bomber that appeared in sight was familiar to Chen Feng. It was an H-6 medium bomber of the Air Force, but it looked different from what he had seen before. The first ones he had seen were early models, and after Qi Yiming got involved in the equipment, they were all modified into H-6K God of War models. What he saw now was actually not a K-type Ares bomber, but an advanced version of the H-B Thor bomber.
B stands for rat, which means that starting from the H8, this medium bomber has been upgraded to a strategic bomber. Some people also regard the HUK, which can launch cruise missiles, as a strategic bomber, but it is generally believed that since the range is only 86-36 kilometers, it is a bit far-fetched to call it a strategic bomber. The Thor bomber is a new version given by the Qi Yiming base after it was upgraded. Originally, the H-6K only had 70 of its
The aircraft length is 49.7 meters and the wingspan is 47 meters. l meters, machine height 14. B meters, empty weight 76 tons, maximum take-off weight 19B tons. The power is replaced by four 1,000-N turbofan engines, with a maximum speed of 60 knots, a maximum range of 1,460 kilometers, a combat radius of 66 kilometers, a maximum bomb load of tons, and a maximum magazine and external plug-in that can carry B air-launched Long Sword missiles.
From the appearance point of view, it is not very different from the original Ares bomber. The most obvious difference is that there are two more engines and the entire body is enlarged, but the aerodynamic appearance has not changed much.
In fact, Qi Yiming himself thinks that this type of bomber is quite useless. In terms of size, it is roughly the same as the Century bomber, but it is far inferior to the Century bomber in terms of bomb load and range. Moreover, after the Century bomber is painted with stealth paint, It is a standard stealth bomber, which has a huge generation gap compared to the Thor bomber. Therefore, after the Century Bomber is available, it is really difficult to use the Thor bomber.
Thinking about it again, the H-6 has a range of about 86 kilometers and a bomb load of only 2 tons. It is just right for activities around the Japanese archipelago. However, if the H-6 is launched as a long-range deterrent, it is a bit sad because the opponent may not even detect it because it is invisible. It has been measured, and the maintenance and service are much more expensive than traditional bombers, so it is not cost-effective. Coupled with the number limit of 18, this kind of weapon must be kept in hand, and it will be an important weapon that will not be used until the critical moment.
The H-Thor bomber has a long enough range and is more suitable for long-range deterrence missions than the H-6K. It is not a problem to fly to the Indian Ocean and East Africa, and it is not a problem to cross the Pacific to the west coast of the United States as long as there are tankers. In addition, technically, except for the more sophisticated engine, everything else is not a problem. It is a not very complicated technology, so the cost is not high and it can be mass-produced.
After being promoted from the base to Level 2, Qi Yiming produced 40 Thor bombers, mainly for strategic cruises and large-scale firepower projection. Just like this battle to attack Taiwan, naturally he can dispatch dozens or hundreds of Flying Leopards and Flying Cloud Leopards to drop bombs, and he can even dispatch secondary artillery to hit short-range surface-to-surface missiles and cruise missiles, but the economic cost and deterrence effect Generally speaking, bombers are the most reliable.
The first wave of offensive paralyzed the Taiwan military's communication and electronic observation capabilities, and the second wave involved a large number of joint guided bombs used by the bomber force. It is naturally more enjoyable to use weapons like KD-BCI-10, but Qi Yiming is not willing to waste that money. One CI-10 cruise missile can be worth nearly a hundred PT-guided bombs, and the battlefield is so narrow. , the strait is only 20 kilometers, and the PT-range is about 3 kilometers. If you attack the anti-landing target near the coast, you can do it without flying over Taiwan Island. For targets that are more inland, you can leave it to the E6 glide-guided bomb. Come and fight.
Based on these considerations, the weapons carried by bombers are basically PT- and E6 weapons, with a small amount of higher-precision KD-B land attack missiles or Y9l anti-radiation missiles.
Qi Yiming, who was far away in the capital, also paid close attention to the progress of the entire war. He personally called the commander Li Zhisheng at the front and said: "We must have a surprise effect. The Taiwan army is very prepared for our army's counter-landing. Sufficient, the terrain of Taiwan Island is long and narrow, and there is almost no depth. Landing on the main island basically means that their situation is over. In order to counter the landing, the Taiwan military did everything they could, and even prepared a large number of "blocking zones". The purpose is to delay the attack time of our landing force and facilitate their anti-landing force to launch a counterattack.
Of course, with the strong air superiority of our army, even if these anti-landing forces are deployed, they will be of no effect and will be eliminated one by one by our fighters and bombers. But the key to the entire operation is to race against time. We must land on the main island as quickly as possible, break into the nuclear research institute in Taoyuan County, and seize the nuclear warhead. Therefore, the Taiwan military must not be given any time or opportunity to transfer this dangerous nuclear warhead.
I request that all combat units maintain a high degree of concentration and keep the landing site completely clear. They cannot allow a Taiwanese soldier to drop mines, iron hooks and the like in the sea water. There must also be no mines or roads on the road. Edge bomb. "
Qi Yiming dealt with this battle with extreme caution. Although he looked down on Daiwan's military, he expected to be lenient to the enemy, valued the enemy strategically, despised the enemy tactically, and could end the battle as quickly as possible and reduce damage. Then It must be done. Before crossing, he also learned a lot about the defense methods of the Taiwanese army. In addition to mines and landmines, the Taiwanese army also prepared rail fences, triangular cones, barbed wire fences, iron deer fences, steel hedgehogs, iron fences, iron nail piles and Anti-airborne triangular fork these obstacles. They even combined this non-explosive obstacle with explosive ones, creating things like steel grates with mines and nutcrackers with mines in slots. Specific blocking facilities include blocking trenches, blocking walls, artificial cliffs, "glass knife mountains", Qiongma, fire barriers and water network barriers, etc.
Normal people would shudder when looking at these words. Fortunately, many facilities cannot be set up in ordinary times. Through the Beidou system, Qi Yiming quickly selected several landing sites, all of which were beachheads where obstacles were not usually deployed. . After all, the island still needs to have normal navigation and marine economic activities, and it is impossible to become so abnormal that the entire coast of the island is covered with mine nets and the like.
The main targets of the Air Force's attack are also clear, which are the garrison posts and anti-landing facilities along the coast. As for air defense, I don't have much to worry about. First, the air force basically chooses to strike outside the defense zone. Taiwan's anti-aircraft artillery or anti-aircraft missiles cannot hit the PLA air strike force that is at least 40 kilometers away. Furthermore, Taiwan has not purchased Patriot missiles, so pL lacks effective containment measures in the face of large stocks.
The air strikes were carried out simultaneously on Taiwan Island and the Penghu Islands. Penghu is undoubtedly an important gateway for landing in Taiwan from the mainland, but with the serious tilt of power, it itself has become less meaningful. If Taiwan had the advantage in the sea and air, Penghu would naturally put our army at a loss. But now as long as the PL navy and air force are dispatched, Penghu is basically isolated from the war zone, and all it can do is protect itself.
After receiving the coordinate assignment from the early warning aircraft, several H-6K Ares bombers immediately launched an attack on Magong, Penghu. The most valuable thing about this small island is the airport and port. When destroying airport facilities, cluster bombs are used. The splashing warheads will pockmark the entire airport surface. Moreover, under the surveillance of the Air Force, even if they want to repair the runway , will face another devastating blow.
The situation at the port was even worse. Following the bombers were HNA's Flying Leopard Fighter bombers, and the Guojun warships in Magong Port were immediately destroyed by them. After the bombers destroyed all visible anti-aircraft weapons, the Flying Leopards rushed at low altitude and fired anti-ship missiles flatly, hitting the warships flying the white sun flag one by one.
The air raid lasted only half an hour, and Magong's military facilities were reduced to ruins. Even though they suffered a severe blow, the surviving Guojun here were unable to send the information back because their communications were seriously disturbed.
