Babylonian Empire

The Kitty Hawk-class ground-effect aircraft is a medium-sized ground-effect aircraft that can transport 20 tons of cargo and is used to transport infantry fighting vehicles and supply equipment.

In addition to this ground-effect aircraft, Iraq is also equipped with a larger aircraft, which is called the Caspian Sea Monster by the United States. The basic tests of this large aircraft have been perfected, and Iraq has more advanced processing Therefore, while building the medium-sized Kitty Hawk, this kind of aircraft with more carrying capacity, under the care of President Qusay, completed the manufacture of the first prototype in 90. This year, it has already Seven ships were built.

This aircraft was named the Salman class by Iraq.

Now, the Salman-class aircraft is slowly lowering its altitude on the sea surface, and then slowly slows down when it reaches the shore, and gradually touches the ground on the flat shore. Although the bottom is like a boat, there are now two rows of tires sticking out. After touching the flat shore, it landed steadily on the ground.

The huge hatch at the rear opens, similar to the Il-76, forming a slope that allows the vehicle to be driven directly in.

"Board the plane immediately." Ali gave the order.

In fact, there is no clear definition of whether this kind of thing is called a ship or an airplane. It looks like a boat on the bottom and an airplane on the top. It can take off and land on the sea, or it can land on flat land.

However, no one has pursued these issues. What they need now is to quickly board these planes and complete a great shift of the universe.

Panting heavily, a tank drove up rumblingly. The appearance of this tank is somewhat similar to the Soviet T-72 tank, especially the chassis is very similar, but the top is completely different, with angular Style, definitely a welded turret.

This kind of tank is a new main battle tank independently developed by Iraq. It has gone through the hard work of Iraqi scientific and technological personnel. This new type of tank has finally been finalized and equipped with troops. As the trump card of Iraq, No.30 five armor The division was one of the first units to receive these tanks.

This tank uses an improved 6TD engine with a power of 45 horsepower. It drives a 46-ton body and can achieve a cross-country speed of 2 kilometers per hour. The main gun is still a 46A125 [-]mm high-pressure smoothbore gun. However, now they The shells used are the shells smuggled from the Soviet Union for the Soviet army's own use. The powerful performance of this shell has long been proven.

In addition to this kind of shells, each of their tanks also has two spare special shells, introduced by Kartsev, artillery missiles introduced by Iraq!

The biggest change is its turret. In its turret, earth-shaking changes have taken place. Electronic equipment is full of it. Fire control systems, night vision equipment, and laser suppression systems that have not been practiced on the battlefield have all been replaced. equipped to the top.

According to preliminary estimates, the combat effectiveness of this tank is 72 times that of the T[-].

Even if they encounter the M1 tanks in the front, they are confident to fight against them. As for the Merkava tanks equipped by Israel, they are definitely the targets of abuse.

However, within Iraq, this tank was only assigned the number T-72M1. Even if it was discovered by the outside world, it would only be thought that it was an improved T-72 tank.

At the time of the original design, the Salman class took into account the size of the transport main battle tank, and the dúlì armored regiment also underwent this kind of training. Therefore, even in the dark, with the help of advanced night vision devices, a The tanks drove close to the belly of the Salman class.

One such aircraft can carry nine T-72M1 tanks. Ali's dúlì armored regiment has 48 T-72M1 tanks and 48 BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles as its main force. His entire dúlì armored regiment was installed.

Iraq has no large transport ships or amphibious landing ships. They are taking a different path.

Soon, the front engines began to roar, and the eight turbofan engines blew out a huge airflow. On the rear main wing, an additional air cushion was formed to enhance the ground effect, and the resistance was greatly reduced immediately. The huge plug The Leman class began to slide on the shore, running faster and faster. After entering the water, it continued to slide. Suddenly, its body lightened and it flew up.

There is a huge roar in the cabin, there is no way, because the engine is at the front.Ali's heart was surging, this time, finally there was another battle to fight!

For Ali, he longed for battle, for a passionate battlefield. At present, there are no battles to fight in other regions. Therefore, defeating the Jews is already his biggest dream. Therefore, although there has been a transfer order, Let him be promoted to the deputy commander of the military region, but he still chose to stay in the front-line troops.

It was pitch black outside, but there was anger in front of their eyes. This time, they were going to teach the damned Jews a lesson!

The Salman class and the Kitty Hawk class are flying steadily at a distance of more than ten meters above the water.

Due to the deteriorating situation in the Golan Heights, the attention of Israel and the United States has been placed in the north, and they have been monitoring in the north for nothing.However, for the defense of the south, they were very lax.

Moreover, in order not to be discovered by Israel, the action route of the Iraqi army is the Gulf of Suez, which is far away from Israel and is the territory of Egypt. Needless to say, the long-range early warning radar deployed in Israel is in Israel It is impossible for the anti-alert planes listed in the south to find this kind of ultra-low-altitude aircraft.

In terms of distance, if you go directly to the north, you can reach the predetermined location. However, the entire southern part of the Sinai Peninsula is full of high mountains. In theory, the ground-effect wing aircraft can actually fly to hundreds of meters like an airplane. Even thousands of meters high, but this has deviated from the original intention of its design, and it is different from Iraq's current plan.

Along the Gulf of Suez, to the west is the vast eastern desert of Egypt, and to the east is the Sinai Peninsula. The first combat troops are flying at a speed of [-] kilometers per hour.The Kitty Hawk class behind is also flying at a speed of [-] kilometers per hour. According to this speed, one trip of the Kitty Hawk class is enough for the Salman class to go twice. However, due to loading and unloading reasons, The final time of the two sides is about the same.

Along the Gulf of Suez, when approaching Suez City, the formation did not continue to fly forward, but turned to the right and flew into the Sinai Desert in the west of the Sinai Peninsula!

This is the advantage of ground-effect wing aircraft. Although it is designed for the sea, beaches, swamps, ice, snow and other flat terrains are their flying space, and they have strong amphibious capabilities. , when landing on the beach, there is a more important advantage.

If you continue to fly in the direction of the Suez Canal, and then head east, then you will have to take a third of the distance. Now, from here, you will go directly to the Mediterranean through land, and then fly to the assembly point by sea. The total distance is 630 kilometers. , which only takes an hour.

If a ship is used, even if it enters the Sinai Peninsula through the Gulf of Aqaba, and then goes overland, it will take more than ten hours. Moreover, it will be very dark and the fuel will be exhausted by then, so it will be very passive.But now, you only need to wait quietly for an hour, and you can directly reach your destination.

On the coastline west of Duhail, the Salman class gradually stopped and slid onto the beach. From the rear, main battle tanks drove down one after another. They have already set foot on the land of the Sinai Peninsula!They are only more than 60 kilometers away from the border of the Gaza Strip and the border defense line listed in sè!

In the darkness, Ali smiled brightly, showing his white teeth.

After going back, because it is empty, the speed of the ground effect aircraft will increase. In this way, it takes two hours to make a round trip. During this night, they can make five round trips, which is enough to drive the main force of the [-]st Armored Division. Transport over.

I am afraid that even the U.S. military will be envious of their transportation capabilities.

The first thousand and ninety-ninth chapter Merkava abused

In the early morning of July 92, 7.

It was a sleepless night. During this night, no one noticed that a powerful army suddenly appeared in the peaceful Sinai Peninsula area.

The No.30 Fifth Armored Division, in an incredible way, reached the Duhail area on the Gaza border.

Here, they have made full preparations, only after the arrival of the morning, they will attack in vain, and they will pull away.

All ground-effect aircraft are used to transport the heavily loaded No.30 Fifth Armored Division, while the Marine Corps can only reach the designated location by its own means.

While the No.30 Fifth Armored Division was flying over the sea and desert, the Desert Leopard infantry fighting vehicles of the Marine Corps were also gathering at their designated positions.

The Marine Corps passed by relying entirely on their own abilities. In fact, it was very simple, because their infantry fighting vehicles had amphibious capabilities.

In the early hours of July 7st, they had already launched from the Sheikh Humed area, crossed the Gulf of Aqaba, and entered the Sinai Peninsula.

After crossing, they hid in the mountains in the southern part of the Sinai Peninsula. After dark, they began a long journey, and arrived in the ancient Semai area in the early morning of the 2nd.

The time for the final attack is getting closer.

The 30 armed helicopters equipped by the No. 48 Fifth Armored Division have also flown to the air force base in the Sinai Peninsula at ultra-low altitude. After dawn, they will support the armored division's attack as soon as possible.

In addition to the main offensive force, the Reserve's First Armored Division, Tenth Armored Division and No.40 Seventh Mechanized Infantry Division, as well as the two Saudi armored divisions, all entered Jordan.

The Mirage 4000 fighter jets of the two squadrons of the Northern Military Region of Iraq, the two Mirage 4000 squadrons of the Southern Military Region, and the two latest Ericsson God Eye pre-warning aircraft also transferred to Saudi Arabia’s Ussali Air Force Base that night.

All they use are heavy-duty air superiority fighter jets. Their mission is to seize the air superiority over Gaza and protect the safety of their attacking forces. At the same time, two Mirage 4000 squadrons of the Saudi Air Force will also participate in this mission. Task.

There is no need to use too many fighters, because Gaza's airspace is too narrow.Saudi Arabia also did not use F-15 fighter jets, because Qusay still has concerns about these. Will the fighter jets made in the United States have some backup?

At the same time, the second-line air force is also ready. Once the conflict escalates, Iraq will also invest its main air force in the task of fighting for air supremacy.

When launching this war, Qusay was very careful not to expand the scale of the war, and how to obtain the greatest benefit with the least cost was what he cared most about.

Until now, the United States and Israel are still kept in the dark. They don't know that Iraq has sharpened its sword.

Gaza, the territory of Palestine, must never be ravaged by Israel again!

The sky in the east was gradually getting brighter, and just as the sun was just showing its edge, Arafat, the chairman of the Palestinian National Authority, issued a statement to the world.

"Gaza is the sacred territory of our State of Palestine. Now, it is experiencing war and chaos. Israel disregarded the relevant resolutions of the United Nations and attacked the territory of our State of Palestine across the border. This is a serious act of aggression. However, we, the Palestine Liberation Force, There is not enough power to defend our territory, so we invite other Arab countries to come forward to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of Palestine, maintain peace in the Gaza area, and stop the war there!"

Arafat's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes. The continuous days of war had exhausted him physically and mentally, but his eyes were still bright and his spirit was still uplifting.

There, the invaders are about to be driven away and become their real territory!
