But now in the southern military region, he has been regarded as a commanding military god. Even Izzat looked at Zhang Feng and said: "We are now in the north of Abadan, and there are still several armored divisions. And the infantry division, how can they mobilize to wipe out the Iranians?"

These words, as if the Iranians were the delicacies in Zhang Feng's mouth, he could eat them whenever he wanted.

"Report." Suddenly, an adjutant walked into the combat command hall.

"Speak." Izzart said, "What's the emergency?"

"A French aerospace company sent a document. An Exocet missile has been installed in the cargo compartment of a civil aviation airliner. It arrived randomly. There are also engineers sent by Dassault, saying that it is to improve the fire control software of our Mirage F1. And hardware, which can guide the launch of Exocet missiles, and Dassault has also sent engineers to train our pilots on how to launch such missiles."

So fast?What is going on with this aerospace company?Also, Dassault is also involved?After Zhang Feng thought about it for a while, he understood that the Frenchmen are indeed masters in the arms business.

That old maid, Alina, must have felt that she didn’t make too much money from this business, and she didn’t cheat herself. After inquiring, she found that she was also in contact with China, and wanted to introduce Chinese C801. Such a combination is absolutely impossible. !Anyway, she had already paid the deposit in advance, so she quickly completed the transportation of the first missile and the deployment of those personnel. After these personnel came, they showed themselves the powerful combat effectiveness of the flying fish missiles, trying to make herself change her mind so that Let them make more money.

As for Dassault, I am afraid that there is also an ulterior purpose. In history, Iraq has introduced a large number of Phantom F1 several times. Now, because it is preparing to introduce the F-20 production line, it is impossible to install a large number of Phantom F1. The Iraqi Air Force, and the heavy-duty Mirage 4000, may not be officially in service until a few years later. During this period, Dassault obviously wants to order more Mirage F1s for itself, and the Mirage F1, in addition to advanced electronic equipment, can In addition to killing the Iranian Tomcat in beyond-visual-range operations, the ability to launch flying fish into the sea may also be a major selling point.

As a result, as soon as the contract was concluded, the first flying fish had already arrived.

Izzart heard the news and said, "When they arrive, arrange for them to stay first. The war here is imminent, but we don't have the time to take care of them."

Zhang Feng's mind was divided. This time, they probably made a mistake, because they bought this kind of missiles for reselling. They didn't think about installing them in large quantities and selling them to Argentina, so that the flying fish missiles could be used. With his own power, he killed the British warship on the sea.

etc!Zhang Feng suddenly thought of a serious problem, the Iranians also have a powerful navy!

Iran has a special geographical location, with the Caspian Sea in the north and the Strait of Hormuz, the "throat" of the Gulf in the southwest. It has a long coastline, so it has long attached great importance to naval construction.

During the Pahlavi dynasty, Iran used its close relationship with the West to purchase a large amount of naval equipment from the United States, the United Kingdom and other Western countries, established a relatively powerful navy, and became a regional naval power. Even more than Israel.

The representative one is the "Babur" class destroyer with a length of 114.8 meters and a full load displacement of 3250 tons. It was originally a US ship built and put into service in the 40s. Aircraft and anti-submarine helicopters were purchased during the reign of Shah Pahlavi.There are also the frigate "Alvand" with a full load displacement of 1 tons and the "Bayando" class of light frigates with a full load displacement of 1350 tons.

In addition to those larger ships, there are also some missile boats, torpedo boats, and other ships that are very suitable for guerrilla warfare in narrow straits, such as the "Carmen" class and the "Osa" II class missile boats.

Correspondingly, Iran also has a large number of naval bases. In the Persian Gulf region, there are three naval bases in Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, and Khomeini; in the Indian Ocean, there is the Chah Bahar submarine base in southern Iran. Opposite the base is the Arabian Sea; on the coast of the Caspian Sea, Iran also has the Enliza Naval Base.

In contrast, the Iraqi navy, which only has a narrow exit from the Fao Peninsula, and only a few speedboats and gunboats to support the facade, is simply not worth mentioning, not even the coast guard of a major country.

However, the Faw Peninsula is the most important place in Iraq. Most of Iraq's crude oil is exported through the Faw Peninsula.

And here, it is very close to Khomeini Port of the Iranian Navy!

Thinking of this, Zhang Feng shivered: "Order the reconnaissance plane to take off immediately to check the nearby sea area."

Chapter 188 Transforming Phantom F1

Chapter 188 Transformation of Phantom F1——

Due to the desperate resistance of the Iraqi Air Force, the second batch of Iranian planes that arrived over Abadan failed to achieve bombing effects. In particular, the two MiG-23 formations led by Arslan successfully spotted the bombing formations preparing for a surprise attack at low altitude. They managed to shoot down several F-4 and F-5 fighters, and the rest had to drop their bombs and escape.As for the MiG-23, two of them were shot down by the F-4 that had freed up with Sidewinder missiles.

The battle between the Phantom F1 and the Tomcat in the high altitude has also been decided. One Phantom F1 was shot down, one Phantom F1 was injured, and one Tomcat was shot down. The bombing formation could no longer continue. For the bombing mission, the Tomcat also stopped fighting with the Phantom F1 and began to return.

This large-scale air battle has come to an end for the time being. In general, there will be winners and losers. However, today’s air battle has made the Iraqi Air Force proud, because the Mirage F1 has finally verified its power: advanced radar with medium-range The Matra missile can finally kill the Iranian Tomcat head-on.

The battle on the ground has also begun. The first to fall into the flames of war is the ace of the 35th Division, the armored regiment led by Ali. They creatively used inflatable models to attract the first wave of bombing by Iranian planes. Zhang Feng felt a little relieved. In terms of specific tactical command, this armor genius really has a lot of skills. You must know that in the later Gulf War, the Iraqi Army deceived the U.S. Air Force overhead, causing the opponent to waste a lot of bombs. But nothing.

The only difference is that it is not advisable for the Iraqi Army to bury tanks in the sand in later generations, because the United States has advanced infrared equipment that can observe the infrared rays emitted by tank engines, so even if it is buried in the sand, it will Blown up by a successful lock.

The Iranian army launched a tentative attack on Ali's defense line.However, he was ruthlessly crushed by Ali.Because, Ali's armored regiment is equipped with first-class weapons.

The BMP infantry fighting vehicle fired anti-tank missiles, and the T-72 tank shocked the Iranian army to find that the opponent had successfully aimed at itself and fired artillery shells at a distance of 500 meters. What's more frightening is that, The 125 mm caliber smoothbore gun was so powerful that it successfully tore through the armor of the Chieftain tank.

The Iraqi armored soldiers in front of them are completely different from the ones they had come into contact with. In the minds of the Iranian armored soldiers, the Iraqi tanks only know how to rush forward blindly. Use visual aiming to start shooting against Iran's armored forces.

Therefore, they were very confident that they could kill all the tanks in front of them before they approached within a few hundred meters.

However, the ruthless artillery shells flew in and completely shattered their dreams. They found that the armored force in front of them had fired accurately at a long distance, even at a distance farther than the chief's artillery. Hit yourself.

The fat Ali sat in the T-72 tank, commanding his own armored assault force, like a sharp bayonet, picking away the most powerful part of the opponent.

Due to the automatic loading machine, the T-72 tank is a three-person system, the driver in front, the commander and gunner in the turret, and the loader is cancelled.

The tank commander is responsible for searching for the target and passing the target to the gunner. The gunner is responsible for manually inputting the fire control data into the fire control computer. Although this takes a little time, the tank soldiers who have undergone repeated training are already familiar with the road.

Due to the advanced fire control system, the T-72 does not need to stop to shoot. It can launch shells directly while in motion, which also increases the difficulty for the opponent to shoot itself.

Although the British Chieftain tank has strong armor protection, the old T-62 tank can only penetrate the Chieftain from the side at close range, and the T-72's powerful 125mm smoothbore gun, which fires a shell-stabilized armor-piercing projectile, can It is easy to penetrate it. If it is equipped with the Soviet army's own depleted uranium armor-piercing projectile, it will be more refreshing. The depleted uranium armor-piercing projectile will burn during the armor-piercing process, increasing the effect.

It's just that this kind of thing pollutes the environment, and the Soviet army will never export the most advanced weapons.

In order to protect its own armored forces, when it found that its own side had no advantage, the Iranian army immediately retreated quickly.

The two sides stopped contact, and Ali did not continue to pursue since he did not have his own fighter jets to protect him in the sky.

He is very wise, otherwise, as long as he chases a hundred kilometers away, the Iranian Cobra helicopter gunship will be dispatched to deal a ruthless and devastating blow to him.

Since they failed to seize the air supremacy, the Iranian armed helicopters did not dare to get too close to the front line of Abadan.

Today's battle has put aside the previous phenomenon of fighting each other separately. The air force and the army cooperate so closely that Zhang Feng feels that the commander of the opponent must be very clever.

In order to prevent Iran's retaliation on the sea, Zhang Feng sent a reconnaissance plane to investigate the movement on the sea.

Although the air force and the army have been fighting repeatedly in the nearly one year of fighting, the navy has not been involved, but this time Zhang Feng attaches great importance to it. If the Iranians join the navy, then the situation will be reversed.

Because of this, he paid more attention to the personnel of Aerospace and Dassault.

Zhang Feng guessed right. The old maid Elina felt that it was not worthwhile after Zhang Feng left, so she immediately changed her mind and added this step in order to get more orders.

This missile was originally assembled on the production line and was going to be sent to the French Navy. As a result, it was intercepted by Elina, and it was first used for demonstration in Iraq.

When Dassault learned about it, it immediately dispatched its personnel. If Iraq wanted to launch Exocet missiles, it had to use the Mirage F1 carrier aircraft. Maybe Dassault would also get an unexpected contract.

If you want the Phantom F1 to be able to launch flying fish, you have to upgrade the fire control system. Therefore, Dassault sent fire control system engineers to upgrade the fire control software and hardware, and at the same time help Iraq master the use of this missile.

When they arrived, they heard that a large-scale air battle had broken out between Iraq and Iran. Although Iraq lost five Mirage F1s, it managed to restrain the Iranian Tomcats. consumption, will likely buy a new Mirage F1.

Therefore, although they were welcomed into the hangar of the Phantom F1 just after getting off the plane, the engineers did not complain.

Joseph got off the plane and looked around. This is the first time he has arrived in a Middle Eastern country. As a traveler, he is also very interested in the Middle East. In history, there have been powerful empires here. Here , is also the center of Islamic culture.

However, the last trip to Moscow brought some shadows to Joseph, and he felt that his interest had decreased a lot.
