Dominate South Asia

Islamabad.

The air battle has entered its fifth day.

"The Soviets have changed their tactics and no longer use the tactics of large fleets. You can be sure that our strikes in the past few days have let the Soviets know that it is not so easy to seize air supremacy over Afghanistan." Air Force Chief of Staff Al Slan said.

In the past few days, the Pakistan Air Force has frequently launched attacks, firmly guarding the air superiority in northern Afghanistan. It has shot down hundreds of Soviet fighter planes, while its own side has lost less than ten. If it were not for the purpose of avoiding expanding the scale of the war, the Pakistan Air Force would They all want to continue the attack and enter the airspace of Turkmenistan.

Now, the Soviets have no tricks left, and the air is completely controlled by Pakistan. On the ground, the Soviets are fighting fiercely. Without the cooperation of aerial bombing forces, they have actually entered the mountainous area for hundreds of kilometers.

"Well, it seems that we have begun the second phase of the operation. The main forces of the Soviet Union have entered the mountainous area. It is time for our Free Army to come out and move around. We ordered the Afghan Free Army to take the initiative to surround Jala. Rabade!”

To mobilize the tigers away from the mountains, the entire ground battle was also under the control of Mhamad. First, let the main force of the Soviets enter the mountains. In this way, large cities such as Jalalabad and Kabul that remained on the periphery would be empty. , taking this opportunity to start taking back the big cities! Start in Kabul!

The siege of Jalalabad was also a decoy.

Hamad's real goal is Kabul! The capital of Afghanistan and the largest city in the north! Didn’t the Soviets want a war? Then have a real fight!

"President, we are worried that the Soviets will continue to use ballistic missiles. This time, they may launch more ballistic missiles. Destroy all our air bases in one fell swoop." Mushaaf said to Mhamad.

Mhammad nodded. It was indeed the case. When the Soviets faced a defeat in a battle, they would think of using ballistic missiles. This kind of weapon is very powerful. Moreover, maybe the Soviets who are in a hurry can really tear them apart. Shameless. Maybe even mushroom bombs will be used.

Are you afraid? Of course I’m not afraid!

"The Americans are always slow. Are their missiles not ready yet?" Mhamad asked.

American!

After the Soviets used advanced ballistic missiles to attack Pakistan's Peshawar base, the United States immediately relaxed its restrictions and decided to export Patriot air defense missiles to Pakistan. However, those who operated these missiles were American troops wearing uniforms. Pakistan army uniform. Come to help Pakistan against threats from the air.

Moreover, these are provided free of charge, and Pakistan does not need to spend any military expenses.

There are only these anti-aircraft missiles. It was far from enough. Under Mhammad's strong insistence, the United States finally shipped a Pershing 1 missile to Pakistan.

The Pershing 1 missile is a U.S. Army solid mobile surface-to-surface tactical missile. As a medium-to-short-range missile, it was used for rapid support in theaters or general support for frontline troops in the 1970s. A large number of such missiles are deployed in Europe and in West Germany, and they can attack the Soviet Union at any time.

Now, the more advanced Pershing 2 missile has been successfully developed and will gradually replace this Pershing 1 missile.

"Last night, they conducted the final debugging, and now it should be in a launch-ready state," Mushaaf said.

"I really want to kick the Americans in the butt for being so slow!" Hamad said: "Now that everything is done, don't wait any longer and let them conduct interception experiments immediately!"

Interception experiment!

Ballistic missiles are difficult to intercept, even in later generations. Americans tirelessly experiment with their NMDs and TMDs, spending huge amounts of taxpayer money. The interception seems to have an effect, but many people have pointed out that this interception is a fraud.

When a ballistic missile falls at an extremely high speed, it is very difficult to intercept it. The speed is fast, and the reaction time left for one's own side is short. One's own interceptor missile must move close to the target missile before it can accurately destroy the missile. Therefore, later generations have been developing for decades, and the results are still not ideal.

As long as the attacking side slightly adjusts its technology, for example, by making a maneuver when the warhead re-enters the atmosphere, it can completely throw off the opponent's interception system.

It is an American idea to build a big umbrella to protect one's own sky, which can attack others while preventing others from attacking and keeping oneself in absolute safety. Unfortunately, this idea is wishful thinking. National security lies in mutual checks and balances.

The Soviet Union, however, has deployed a Soviet anti-missile system near Moscow, which can deal with incoming missiles. The Soviets do not have the same problem as the Americans because their interception system uses nuclear weapons as warheads. It doesn't need to be very precise, as long as it is within the explosion range of the nuclear warhead, the opponent's warhead can be intercepted.

The Soviets solved the problem in a simple and crude way. At the beginning, Khrushchev even claimed that the Soviet Union could hit flies in space. In fact, this was a method that would damage both. Even if the warhead was successfully intercepted, the nuclear explosion would It will also threaten Moscow.

Now, although the Patriot missile claims to have the ability to intercept ballistic missiles, even the American company that developed them may not be confident about its actual efficiency.

Even so, this interception experiment must be carried out successfully! This is for the Soviets to see! Let the Soviets know that even if they launch missiles again, they can be stopped by Pakistan. Moreover, ballistic missiles are also deployed on Pakistani land. If the Soviets dare to continue to launch ballistic missiles, Pakistan will also launch ballistic missiles without hesitation!

This is a kind of intimidation, a cover to make the Soviets think clearly before taking action. In fact, the Americans only provided this ballistic missile, and the Americans are unwilling to over-stimulate the Soviets.

Now, it's time to show it to the Soviets!

In the southwest of Pakistan, near the Dasht River, near the small town of Jiji.

The tracked launch vehicle slowly unfolded, and the hydraulic cylinder on the top erected the pointed ballistic missile on its back.

The ballistic missiles of the United States have long been fully solidified. It only takes five minutes to switch from marching state to combat state, and then you can run.

The ballistic missile was erected, and the US Army soldiers in the launch vehicle operated nervously.

"Inject launch data."

"Open all levels of insurance."

"Last self-check before ignition."

"Countdown before launch."

For this launch, large computers in the United States have conducted a complete simulation test to ensure that the ballistic missile can accurately collide with the Patriot missile.

If it really cannot collide, the missile's seeker will explode at the right height. In short, no matter what, it must be intercepted!

"Launch!" When the countdown reached zero, the launcher pressed the red button, and the tail of the missile spewed out a puff of smoke, and the fire flashed. The missile began to slowly leave the launcher, faster and faster, and finally disappeared into the sky.

Bergel in northern Pakistan.

The Patriot missile position here has also been fully prepared. When the missile over there began to launch, this side entered the final interception state, and the launch data was continuously transmitted.

In space, the United States' early warning satellite is also monitoring this Pershing 1 missile. In case the missile's trajectory deviates, it is necessary to immediately tell the Patriot missile interception force to change the interception direction.

The Patriot's flat radar aimed at the south, constantly scanning the sky, waiting for the warhead to appear. Not far away, the quadruple missile launcher had also moved to the corresponding position.

This interception experiment was just a precise collision calculated in advance!

A few minutes later, in the predetermined airspace, the missile appeared accurately, and it entered the atmosphere at a speed of almost Mach 10.

Here, the interception entered the final critical period. All the data entered the computer of the Patriot air defense system and was quickly calculated according to the predetermined program.

It was exactly the same as the pre-calculated one, and the missile could be launched according to the program!

"Bang." The top cover of the quadruple Patriot missile box popped open, and inside, a missile dragged a tongue of fire and pierced the sky.

This was also the first time for the United States to conduct a ballistic missile interception experiment, which was of great significance. The data was synchronously transmitted to the United States through satellites, and countless people stared at the screen nervously, watching this interception.

Finally, at an altitude of 30,000 meters, the two targets disappeared from the radar screen at the same time.

The interception was a complete success!

The Americans cheered, and the Pakistanis were even happier.

Fifteen minutes after the interception test was completed, the Pakistani spokesperson appeared in front of the reporters.

"Fifteen minutes ago, we conducted a ballistic missile interception test. We launched a ballistic missile from the southwest region, targeting the desert near our Berger, where we deployed Patriot missiles. The radar of this missile accurately captured the ballistic missile and intercepted it, accurately shooting down the ballistic missile at an altitude of 30,000 meters."

"Excuse me, is this ballistic missile from Pakistan? What is its range? Can it carry a nuclear warhead?" a reporter asked.

"Sorry, this is confidential." The spokesperson said.

"How many sets of Patriot missiles did the United States provide you with?" The reporter continued to ask.

"Enough to protect all our air bases."

"Now, the Soviet Union is at a disadvantage in air combat. You have completed the ballistic missile interception test at this time. Are you warning the Soviet Union that it is no longer effective to attack Pakistan's air bases with ballistic missiles?" This reporter was very smart and asked the most critical question.

The spokesperson looked at the reporter with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, that's right! We in Pakistan no longer have to fear ballistic missile attacks. We can effectively intercept them!" (To be continued ~^~)
