Chapter 570 Lizi Face
"Damn it, Brigadier, where's our plane? If we don't come to fight, we can't fight. Regardless of the dust on his body, the head of the first aircraft infantry brigade rushed into the headquarters and shouted in a loud voice.
Aka frowned slightly, stared at his men unhappily, and said, "Look at what you look like now? You can't fight without air support?
Seeing the unconvinced face under his hand, Aka said helplessly, "Colonel Godin, the enemy's air force is also very weak. After a night of attack, it has almost reached their limit. Don't worry, our air force is ready to give them a surprise attack at a critical time and eliminate the enemy's air threat in one fell swoop.
"I have to wait again, and I don't know if those air force cubs can do it or not..." Godin put on his hat again and went out while scratching his mouth. As the commander of the first regiment, if it hadn't been for the suppression of the Kenyan Air Force, the first regiment would not be able to play the role of the armored force, so that the whole regiment felt If he is aggrieved, he will not go to the headquarters to complain.
Aka was not angry with Godin's behavior. He knew that Godin was so grumpy, but he didn't want to fight. Many times, we still need this kind of lifeless person very much, and only when the officer does not die can the team fight hard.
"Adeputy, pick me up the Air Force Camel Mountain Base." Aka took a look at the bright sun outside and felt that it was almost time. With Kenya's ultra-small air force, after many battles in one night, the aircraft and the pilots have reached the limit, and it is time for their own air force fighters to hit the other side.
Suddenly, there was a sad siren sound at the Camel Mountain Base of the Air Force. Several Air Force pilots, who had been resting, immediately threw out of the lounge and rushed to the runway. The already prepared airport logistics personnel have dragged the MiG-23 fighter out of the hangar.
In the middle of the night yesterday, six MiG-23 fighters of the Somali Air Force on combat missions on the northern front were urgently transferred to the southern front. Except for a few high-level officials in Somalia, no one else was clear. Kenyan intelligence thought that the small-scale Somali air force was fighting against Somaliland on the northern front.
"Hado, good luck!" In a silver-white MiG-23 cockpit, Jababa put on his helmet and said a word to the pilot on another fighter next to him.
"You too, may the Lord bless you!" Hado and Jabba, a companion, had a high tacit understanding and stretched out their heads from the cockpit and shouted.
After saying that, the two laughed and closed the cockpit cover. The 001 MiG-23 fighter piloted by Hado and the 003 fighter piloted by Jababa will go to the front line frequented by the Kenyan Air Force as the first detachment for guerrilla.
MiG-23, as the first generation of single-seat supersonic heavy fighter of the former Soviet Union, adopted a variable swept wing layout for the first time, in order to meet the different flight states at both high and medium and low altitudes. It enables the aircraft to use a large swept angle when flying at high altitude to improve the aircraft's acceleration surname and high-speed flight ability, while the aircraft uses a small swept angle when flying at medium and low altitudes to improve the lift obtained by the aircraft's wings and ensure the smooth flight of the aircraft. Therefore, the MiG-23 can be used as a high-altitude interception, and can also be used to attack the ground as an attack aircraft.
Although as the first fighter to use variable swept wings, the MiG-23 still has some shortcomings in its design. In addition, the rough electronic technology of the former Soviet Union makes the fighter's anti-interference ability weak, it is undeniable that the MiG-23 fighter has My position, because the MiG-23 experienced practical experience in Soviet aircraft is second only to the MiG-21. However, looking at the record of the MiG-23, it is not difficult to find that the MiG-23 is far inferior to the MiG-21. This is not to say that the surname of MiG 23 can be bad, but that MiG-23 is 'not born at the right time'.
As a second-generation aircraft, the combat target of the MiG-23 is often the third generation of famous aircraft, such as F-15, F-16, or the third generation such as F-14. When the MiG-21 was in the sky, most of these third-generation aircraft were still under development, or they were not put into active service. At that time, the main Western aircraft F-4, F104 and Phantom III. The comprehensive surname can be basically the same in the 1960s and 1970s, and it is not surprising that the MiG-21 can achieve remarkable results.
This time, Somalia's opponent is the F-5E fighter equipped by the Kenyan Air Force. At the beginning, the development goal of the Tiger fighter was to take the Su-7 and MiG-21 as the combat targets. As the development of the MiG-21, although the MiG-23 can't compare with a series of upgrades in the 1980s and 1990s. The generation of F-5E fighters is more advanced than the F-5E fighters purchased by Kenya as early as 1976.
Of course, air combat is not more advanced than the fighters on both sides. Although the advanced or not of the fighters has a great impact on the final result, the quality of personnel, that is, the quality of pilots and the ability to respond to the plane are important factors affecting the results. Among the records of the MiG-23, there are many three generations of advanced fighters such as F-15/16,
That's why Aka decided to make the ground combat troops suffer more casualties and ensure that the air force can hit with one blow.
Kenya, like most African countries, is a weak country in the air force. The scale of the air force is very small, the overall quality of the pilots is not high, and the number of reserve pilots is not much. Brigadier Aca intends to take advantage of the fatigue of the Kenyan Air Force, and his fighter jets are capable and energetic. The pilot and the sudden attack caught the other party unprepared, reversed the air superiority of both sides, and even directly obtained air s control.
......
"Said, who the hell are you?" When Moore saw that the situation in the headquarters was controlled by a major, he felt bad and immediately asked fiercely.
In his opinion, this Said is either a Somali spy or an old enemy of Galey. No matter which side he is, it will be unfavorable to him. If Said was Gayle's man, this old opponent would definitely kill him in order to completely eliminate his opponent who threatened him to win the presidency; if Said was a Somali political axe, he would be even less likely to have a way to survive.
Moore scolded loudly and slowly retreated. As long as he was close to his desk and got the gun in the table, he would have a glimmer of life.
But his little move, in a quiet headquarters, is so conspicuous. Said even showed a trace of sarcasm on his face.
"S sir, if I were you, I would never think about turning the situation around with a small pistol. Because at this time, several guns have been aimed at you at the same time. I think you, sir, who hasn't had shooting training for more than ten years, are absolutely fast than the elite soldiers I brought.
Colonel Moore staggered under his feet when he heard the words and almost sat on the ground. At this moment, he let the Buddha's soul sublimate, and he could really find the hidden danger. He was sure that since Saeed knew his purpose, he was still indifferent, that is, relying on him, or waiting for him to resist with a gun and kill him openly.
He was very sensical and did not continue to move, and the safety of life was extremely valued by him at this moment. Although it may die in the hands of the enemy, it is only possible, isn't it? It's not necessarily dead. If it is the real annihalation of Said, the bastard, it may be immediately shot into a sieve by the guards.
Said nodded with satisfaction and said, "As for which side I am from, everyone will know immediately."
Ten minutes later, there was a sound of footsteps outside the headquarters. The Somaliland officers looked at the door of the headquarters at the same time. They were also curious about which side Saeed belonged to.
When he came in, an Alaba man in his forties in military uniform walked into the headquarters with a group of guards. Seeing that the situation inside was obviously prepared, he was not surprised at all.
"Report to the general, Officer Sai Yide will report to you." Said saw someone coming and quickly strode forward and said loudly.
"Are you Saeed? Yes, I have made a great contribution this time. The man patted Said on the shoulder with a bright smile.
And the Somaliland officers in the headquarters were collectively petrified. Because they basically know this Arab soldier, even if they don't know it, as long as they look at the unique eagle logo on the other party's uniform, they will understand that the officer, who was called a general by Said, is from the Somali Defense Forces.
"Mourer Brigade... No, you should be called Moore's Chief of Staff now. Why do you still have a straight face when you see your old friend? The Somali general's sharp eyes swept over the Somaliland officer in the house. When he saw Moore standing in the corner, there was a strange smile on his face.
"Ren Craford, I didn't expect it to be you!" Moore said with a bitter smile. The person who came can really be regarded as his 'old friend', because the other party is the Brigadier General of the Fifth Aircraft Brigade of the Somali Defense Force. Before Morta was promoted to Chief of General Staff of the Somaliland Armed Forces, he was the commander of the Second Tank Brigade of Somaliland stationed on the dividing line. Across the 10-kilometer dividing line, both troops could see each other's camps without binoculars.
"Chief of Staff Moore, and everyone, this time I come to invite you to return to Somalia with the order of Chief of Staff Hussein. What do you think? Hussein's chief of staff promised that as long as you lead the uprising, we will have the opportunity to fight side by side in the future. Of course, if the command of the army is handed over, the chief of staff will not treat everyone badly. You can retire after the war and be a rich man!" Crawford, the commander of the fifth aircraft brigade, looked at the Somaliland officers and said.
It can be seen from Crawford's words that he is also a kind-hearted person. It's better to let these Somaliland officers lead the 'insurreation' to make face for everyone than to directly let them surrender unconditionally.
"And please rest assured that your main relatives in Hargeisa have been rescued by our special forces and settled in a safe place. You don't need to worry about the future. When Crawford saw that some officers still had scruples, he immediately thought of the reason.
Including Moore, the officers in Somaliland agreed after a little consultation. Somalia has given face to Lizi. If it's not funny, it's stupid.
