Dominate South Asia

Chapter 272 Bombing the Air Force Base

The MiG-21 fleet was flying steadily, forming a straight line. In front of them, they could already see their own air base and the long runway.

Enter the glide path and land!

Seeing those fighters so defenseless, just like a group of sheep on the grassland, Rick shouted on the radio: "Free attack!"

After that, he pulled the joystick back, the nose of the plane lifted up, and the Sidewinder missile under the wing had locked onto a MiG-21. The heat flow from the tail nozzle behind was the best target!

"Boom!" When the last MiG-21 was hit, the fighter in front realized that the situation was not good. At this time, several Sidewinder missiles had already flown towards them.

The MiG-21 fleet scattered, and two fighters were so panicked during the flight that they actually collided!

Under the eyes of the Cuban ground crew, the Tomcat fighters began to massacre them. It was a one-sided massacre. In the first round of attacks, three MiG-21 fighters were shot down, two of them collided in the air, and the last one wanted to pull up, but Rick rushed up and bombarded it with machine guns.

In front of the Cubans, all these planes were killed, and Rick finally ordered to return.

The news was sent back to South Africa, and the air base was boiling.

The president had left, and Lieutenant General Dennis Earp, commander of the South African Air Force, welcomed these returning warriors.

"The Cuban Air Force is very difficult, and our Mirage F1 fighters have fallen behind." Dennis said to Rick and others at the welcome banquet: "We are very happy to see that the Cuban Air Force was beaten to a pulp today."

"In front of our Tomcat fighters, any active fighter of the Soviet Air Force is the target of slaughter." Rick said: "Now, we have to discuss the next combat plan."

The next step? Dennis couldn't help but feel surprised by the people in front of him. Their fighting spirit is worth learning.

"What's the next step?" Dennis asked.

"When our A-7 fighters arrive, we will bomb the Cuban air base thoroughly, destroying all their fighters on the runway. At the same time, we will destroy their radar and anti-aircraft artillery positions, so that the Angolan sky will completely belong to us." Rick said.

Destroy their air base! Dennis' eyes lit up. In the past, the South African Air Force had wanted to do this a long time ago, but not only did it not destroy their air base, but on the contrary, the South African air base was destroyed by Cuba, and many fighters were lost.

"Their air bases are almost all distributed along the coast, so. This time we will attack from the sea." Rick said: "We need to transfer to Nolos and take off from the air base there."

The main cities in Angola are all distributed along the coast. Now, the MPLA has almost controlled all the coastal cities in Angola, leaving only the southeast corner of UNITA, and the South African army has withdrawn to Namibia.

The attack of the Cuban Air Force was too sharp. Without air superiority, the South African army. Repeatedly attacked by the Cuban Air Force.

Now, Dennis was very happy to hear that they were going to attack the Cuban air force base and solve the Cuban Air Force once and for all.

"So, what can our air force do?" Dennis asked.

"Stand by." Rick said.

It's not that Rick underestimated the South African Air Force, because without early warning aircraft, the command of thirty fighters has already made Rick waste a lot of energy. If the South African Air Force gets involved, Rick will have to worry about the problem of accidental attacks, so it's better to be calm like now.

Dennis blushed. Is his own air force so vulnerable?

"We need all the information on these air force bases." Rick said: "Thank you for your air force. Conduct a reconnaissance activity."

Rick knows the reason for cooperation. Now. This kind of reconnaissance activity should be left to the other air force.

"Yes, we must investigate those air force bases clearly." Dennis said.

The next day, the A-7 attack aircraft were also in place and were all deployed at the Nolos base. Refueling, inspection, and bombing, the bombing of the Cuban air force base was about to begin.

"Attention, we will be dispatched at 4 pm. When we reach the enemy's airspace, it will be dusk. This is when their defense is the weakest. We must destroy all their ground facilities, especially those fighters parked on the runway." Rick said: "Fighters parked on the ground are also counted as our achievements. Fight to fight against the Soviets' lackeys!"

In fact, Rick really wanted to say, for those commissions, fight! This operation can at least blow up more than 30 Cuban Air Force fighters. Ten million per plane, more than 300 planes, that is more than 300 million US dollars! This money comes too fast!

The pilots agreed loudly. They all had aerial photos tied to their knees. The targets outlined on them were their targets.

The fleet took off from the base. Although the A-7 attack aircraft was ugly, the heavy bombs hanging under the wings represented how strong its combat effectiveness was. A squadron of Mirage F1 fighters could not carry as much as an A-7. For long-distance flights, it also carried two auxiliary fuel tanks.

The Cuban Air Force was equipped with outdated Soviet fighter planes that used turbojet engines, consumed a lot of fuel, and had a short range. Therefore, Rick deployed his own fighter planes in South Africa to prevent counterattacks from the Cuban Air Force. They simply could not fly here unless they did not intend to go back.

Although these fighters were leased to the Americans, they could be destroyed if destroyed, but Rick still had other plans. He would find an opportunity to fly directly to Pakistan in the future. He regarded these fighters as his own wealth.

The large fleet took off. At this time, the sun had already reached the west, and the sunlight was shining on the sea, sparkling.

Along the coastline of Namibia, the fleet kept flying, and finally flew over Namibia and reached the coastline of Angola.

When approaching, they all lowered their altitude to prevent being discovered by the air defense radar deployed by Cuba.

Two A-7 fighters flew in the front. Under their wings, in addition to heavy bombs, there were also slender missiles, which were Shrike anti-radiation missiles.

They flew in the direction of the radar station, and the missiles had begun to receive radar signals.

In the radar station, several Cuban radar soldiers were looking at the screen in front of them seriously.

Cuba did not ask for any commission in this battle. It came entirely out of the help of the international communist third world. In particular, South Africa directly dispatched troops to participate in the civil war in Angola, which made them very angry.

Now, most of Angola's territory has been occupied by the Angolan People's Liberation Army. They changed their name to the People's Liberation Army of Angola, which is considered the orthodox Angolan army.

A small echo appeared on the screen.

"What is this?" The careful radar soldier immediately found something unusual.

"Anti-radiation missile! Quick, turn off the machine!" another radar soldier shouted.

Cuba is different from other countries. They have always grown up in the back garden of the United States. They have repeatedly crushed the US conspiracy to subvert their regime. Cuban soldiers are also very familiar with American weapons.

This flying missile must be an anti-radiation missile! On the battlefield in Vietnam, the way to deal with anti-radiation missiles is to turn off the machine!

The radar antenna was turned to one side and turned off at the same time. However, the Shrike missile had been improved and had the function of dealing with the turned-off radar. When the target radiation disappeared, it would continue to move in the direction just now. Unless the radar vehicle could move, it would miss.

Moreover, in order to deal with this kind of radar, after launching the anti-radiation missile, the A-7 pilot continued to guide a Maverick air-to-ground missile and aimed at the opponent's radar.

Even if the Shrike missile could not hit the opponent, the Maverick missile could guarantee an accurate hit.

"Boom!" "Boom!" With two explosions, the Shrike missile and the Maverick missile hit the target one after another, and the radar station was completely reduced to ruins.

The first shot of the attack had been fired!

After the radar station was destroyed, the anti-aircraft artillery position next to it lost its eyes without the guidance of the radar. What's more, it was dusk now. All the soldiers lined up in an orderly manner and went to the canteen to get food. There were not even ten people left on the anti-aircraft artillery position.

"Boom!" A bomb landed accurately on the anti-aircraft artillery position. With the explosion of the bomb, the anti-aircraft artillery was blown into scrap metal. The continuous bombing turned the anti-aircraft artillery position into ruins.

At the same time, the sharp air defense alarm sounded at the air force base.

The Cuban Air Force is well-trained. Two pilots on duty, fully equipped and holding flight helmets, quickly ran towards their aircraft.

Jumping into the cockpit, they started the engine and slid onto the runway while the canopy was still closed.

Overhead, a large number of fighter planes had appeared. They were fearless and continued to slide onto the runway, turned on the afterburner, and took off quickly!

"Boom!" A Maverick missile accurately hit a MiG-21 fighter and instantly turned into a fireball.

Another MiG-21 fighter insisted on flying into the sky.

"067, shoot it down!" Rick shouted on the radio.

"Understood." 067 was lurking on the side of the runway, watching the MiG-21 pull up, the heat flow at the tail was so dazzling, he fired a Sidewinder missile without hesitation.

Soon, the MiG-21, which was still climbing, had thick smoke coming out of its tail and fell down.

As most of the country was occupied by the ANC, the Cuban Air Force thought it was safe. For convenience, all the fighter planes were on the apron, not in the hangar. Now, they suffered a devastating blow. (To be continued ~^~)
