Buchanchel not only did not feel afraid of the fierce Iranian armored forces, but also spoke without fear.

Because the Turkish border defense forces were too weak, when the Turkish defense line was broken, Blüchel only had time to send the thugs and mechanized infantry battalions to the north to strengthen the defense in the direction of Bashkale. If it was not the Iranian army, but the armored troops of the Republic's army, Blüchel might not have time to adjust the defense deployment and would be annihilated by the opponent before resisting.

Of course, the sudden appearance of the Iranian army also caused quite a lot of trouble for Blüchel.

Anyway, Blüchel only sent two battalions to the north, and he had to face two divisions.

For Blüchel, the luckiest thing is that the two Iranian army divisions did not make any stops and adjusted their defenses after breaking through the Ground Forces defense line and directly came over. If the Iranian army made a brief rest as planned and re-deployed the offensive operation while replenishing ammunition for tanks and tanks, Blüchel would probably not be able to laugh. No matter what, the two equipment was there. The Iranian army division leading to Zhaogongkou would definitely be able to eat two US military camps. Although a short stay would give Blüchel time to adjust the defense deployment, as long as the Iranian army steadily fought steadily, first ate the two US military camps in front of them, and then gradually disintegrated the US military defense line, Blüchel would definitely lose all its capital.

It has to be said that the Iranian authorities are too eager to win a Wev's victory, thus ignoring the potential danger.

After confirming that the Iranian Army armored troops were coming, Blüchel immediately contacted the major battalion commander of the two battalions. He ordered the mechanized infantry battalion to defend the front and the armored battalion maneuvered eastward. After the attack of the Iranian armored troops was frustrated, he counterattacked from the side, focusing on attacking the junction of the Khomeini Division and the Avazian Division. He tried to isolate the Khomeini Division. In other words, Blüchel planned to use the counterattack to eat the opponent's most powerful armored division.

Of course, the troops of the two battalions are definitely not enough.

Not to mention the US military camp, even the armored battalion of the Republic Army would not be able to kill a pound in a battle. It is equipped with an armored division that is a match between the Jinshi and the Lishi.

After arranging the front line troops, Blüchel began to mobilize the reserve team.

In his opinion, if the Khomeini division could be eaten before dawn, not only would the threat from the face be lifted, but the opponent's southern offensive forces would also be forced to slow down and gain more time to adjust their defense deployment.

It can be seen that Blücher is not worried about frontal defense.

In fact, he doesn't have to worry about frontal defense either.

The ability of the US military to fight defensive wars is recognized globally. First: After World War I, the Republic Army only broke through the US military's defense line on the front, and there was only one time, which was the Peninsula War that led to the 2002 Zui Dynasty. In addition, the US military's frontal defense line was never broken by any army. More importantly, in ground combat, in addition to having super strong air support, the US military often launched a counterattack after blocking the enemy, and defeated the enemy in the counterattack battle, achieving the final victory. In the Iranian War that year, the Iranian army never defeated the US military in frontal battles, and even failed to annihilate the US combat troops above the battalion level.

Although it is not the same as before, Blüchel cannot count on air support, he still has reason to believe that "a mechanized infantry battalion can adjust its defense deployment when it is capable of blocking the thugs.

What made Blücher so confident was the US anti-tank equipment.

During the Indian War, the "Start Series of Main Battle Tanks and Blades Series Infantry Fighting Vehicles not only amazed the world, but also attracted high attention from the US military. During the war, the Fourth actively engaged in India, hoping to get a "model car". Although the uranium could not get a prototype car until the end of the war, it did not return empty-handed. Before the end of the war, some armor fragments of tanks and combat vehicles were obtained. For the US Army, the most important thing to be clear is the armor protection performance of Shao Yin and Zhao Yichi.

The armor fragments brought back not only made the US Army unable to sleep or eat, but also made the American industry feel ashamed.

At the end of the phenol, a report jointly submitted by the Pentagon by an unspecified administrative research agency affiliated with the Pentagon and the American Steel Industry Association to the White House and the Pentagon clearly stated that it is not a problem to copy the alloy armor used by the Republic Army in the Bi-Industry Series and the Ground-Blade Series. It is probably possible to produce products of comparable performance within a few years, but it is almost impossible to produce on a large scale, because the cost is likely to be so high that the Congressional Military Budget Committee cannot accept it. There is only one reason for this result: several trace elements that make alloy armor are rare metals, and are mainly controlled by several resource companies in the Republic.

The inability to produce alloy armor for the time being does not mean that the US authorities have done nothing.

Four of the first two were secretly tested at the Aberdeen Artillery Test Ground using armor samples provided by Bath Steel Group.

The conclusion was shocked by the US Army's equipment officials. Tian Yiyin's frontal protection ability must have exceeded four millimeters of homogeneous armored steel, which can resist the attack of all anti-tank weapons. After the additional armor was installed, its side protection ability was more than millimeters, exceeding the frontal protection ability of most main battle tanks. Even if its rear protection ability is about millimeters, it exceeds that of Xu Yi website. Except for Gu, Zhou, please log in to read! The frontal protection ability of all infantry fighting vehicles. For the US Army, what is most lacking is not the tanks that are well protected, but the anti-tank weapons that can be killed.

Affected by this, the US Army applied for a $2 B equipment development and procurement fee for the thug. It signed a pre-development contract with Thunder Missile Company, Hughes Ammunition Company and other companies, and required the company to come up with a detailed design plan before the end of the year.

At the end of that year, the US Army chose Raytheon's "high-spreading ballistic hypersonic kinetic attack anti-tank missile."

To put it simply, this is an anti-tank missile that uses a kinetic energy warhead to strike the top armor of the tank. In the past, the attack-top anti-tank missiles used energy-concentrating warheads. Although the speed of the metal jet exceeds the power meter per second, as long as the attack distance is appropriate, it can penetrate the top armor of all tanks, but the flight speed of the anti-tank missile using energy-concentrating warheads is not very fast, and it is difficult to break through the all-round active defense system, and the attack efficiency is very low. More importantly, the US Army developed "piezoelectric passive reaction armor" in the early ugly era, and this passive reaction armor that relies on high-voltage current to change the armor form and thus enhance the protection ability.

It is mainly used to deal with the metal jet of energy-concentrating armor-breaking, and has little impact on the early bombs that rely on kinetic energy. Mu Yong doubts. The main battle tanks of the Republic must have adopted similar passive armor. As more and more anti-tank missiles adopt the kinetic energy attack principle, anti-tank missiles using the energy-concentrating warhead will sooner or later be eliminated. Because the flying speed of kinetic energy missiles is too fast, and the range of anti-tank missiles carried by individual soldiers is very limited. Generally, it is about kilometers, which is equivalent to the missile flying at full speed of 2 to 3 seconds, so anti-tank missiles using kinetic energy warheads rarely use the attack top mode. After all, in such a short time, the missile's ballistic changes are very limited.

In addition to the limitations of these technical seven, with the improvement of tank armor performance, the application range of individual anti-tank systems is becoming narrower and narrower, and will sooner or later be eliminated by war like portable air defense missiles. Therefore, military powers such as the Republic and the United States have not attached much importance to individual anti-tank missiles. Only medium-sized military powers like Russia and France attach great importance to individual anti-tank weapons in order to create some characteristics.

For the US Army, it is a helpless choice to turn back and develop individual counter-appearance weapons.

To put it bluntly, if you want to obtain the ability to remove the old 3 as soon as possible, you have to work hard on individual anti-tank weapons. The new address of this site has been changed to: Exorcist, please log in to read if you delete it!

Fortunately, the United States has one of the best technical reserves, and Thunderstor has long wanted to develop a kinetic attack anti-tank missile to seize the international market. However, the US Army has always been uninterested in such weapons. Thunderstor has been making technical reserves and has not officially started development work. No matter what, if the weapons and equipment produced by American arms companies cannot be favored by the US military, they will not want to get a share of the international market.

With the strong support of the US Army, four bottoms, such as four missiles with the number of four missiles, and were named "thumbs" by the US Army. By the end of the year, in addition to the first batch of orders, the US Army also ordered two batches, and Raytheon delivered a total of four launch vehicles and four missiles to the US Army. According to the Pentagon's second batch of orders for the Army, there were also Marine Corps. Among them, the European Legion and the Marine Division were given priority.

It can be seen from this that the US authorities are indeed actively planning the Middle East war.

"Thupin" is given priority to prepare the first thug. There is no problem with the Marine Division. After all, the Marine Corps is the vanguard of the US military. Wherever there is war, there will be Marine Corps. However, the enemy continental legions are permanently stationed in Europe. If it were not for the Middle East War, there would be almost no chance to fight with the Republican army. Only when the Middle East War is actively in the case of the US Army having the reason to give priority to the "Thupin" to the European Legion.

Of course, in order to be less eye-catching, the United States used staffing reforms as a cover.

In any case, when Blüchel brought his troops to the battlefield, the soldiers of the Armored Division and the 3rd Infantry Division had the only anti-tank missile in the world that could kill Yan. Although the Russian authorities claimed that the "black tube, anti-tank missile that they developed could penetrate. Yan's front armor was the first anti-tank weapon in the world that could destroy Yan, but based on the tests conducted by the Iranian Army that purchased Xiayi. Because Russian designers ignored the protection ability of passive reaction armor, this anti-tank missile, which claimed to have armor-breaking capabilities exceeding millimeters of the rotor, could only penetrate the side armor of the Yan's front armor at most, and could not penetrate its front armor.

Of course, the thugs of all their strength are not perfect anti-tank missiles.

Because the high-spanning trajectory is used to aim at the tank's top armor. Therefore, the thug can only be used in relatively open and unobstructed places. If it is to be used in a narrow space, the attack mode cannot be used. He can only aim at the attack method in a straight line, thus losing the ability to destroy the field ray. What's more, because the rocket engine used is too small, and the maximum relative tolerance of the ballistic vertex is super challenging, so when attacking the target, the battlefield guards' clouds are required to be given priority to equip the European legion. Because the European region is mainly plains and the meteorological conditions are relatively ideal.

Fortunately, the plateaus in the Zagros Mountains are very open, and they are dry early in the early summer, with few thicker clouds.

When the two sides first contacted, the American soldiers used several undisputed results to prove that the thugs invested by American taxpayers, the US dollar was not used in vain.

After being severely damaged, the vanguard of the Khomeini Division immediately stopped and then retreated for thousands of meters.

At this time, it was almost the key point.

The front-line commander of the Khomeini Division organized personnel to rescue damaged tanks and casualties, and reported to the division headquarters about the blockade and demanded long-range fire support. Because the artillery units of the Khomeini Division had not yet found a position, the only one who could provide support was the first combat unit who stayed in Sufian's artillery brigade. Perhaps because they did not want to look ugly, the major general of the Khomeini Division did not request artillery support, but sent two infantry battalions to ask the vanguard to launch an attack under the cover of the infantry and strive to break through the US defense line as soon as possible.

Mu Yong doubted that this was a decision that was wrong and wrong.

The results of the second round of attack were not much better. Because there was no artillery suppression on the US military, the US soldiers comfortably launched anti-tank missiles at the rushing tanks and tanks, achieving the second batch of results.

It was not until this time that the commander of the Khomeini Division reacted and contacted the front line command.

Yuan Chenhao did not delay any time and forwarded the fire support request from Khomeini Division directly to the Artillery Brigade of the First Combat Unit, and contacted the Joint Command, hoping that the Artillery Brigade of the Tenth Combat Unit deployed in northern Iraq could enter the battle at appropriate times.

The problem is that this time, it was not the scouts of the Republic Lu Cao who acted as the artillery fire, but the vanguard of the Khomeini Division.

In other words, when the artillery support began, no one noticed that a battalion of US armored troops was assaulting the east of the Khomeini Division.

In fact, it is difficult for a battalion's armored troops to attract attention.

No matter what, the artillery fire support of the Artillery Brigade of the First Combat Unit had an immediate effect.

It can be said that after receiving the message sent back by the frontline troops, Blüchel understood why so many Turkish troops collapsed before the ground attack began. From the standpoint of the beatings, the artillery bombardment of the Republic Army may be regarded as the most terrifying firepower strike in the world.

Just the thug, the three artillery battalions! The Lima electromagnetic cannon threw shells weighing as much as kilograms at the defensive position of the US infantry battalion, which was only 3 square kilometers. It was not a single high-explosive shell, but a variety of shells. According to the memories of the surviving American soldiers, the old minute shelling was as long as it was. When the shelling ended, the US military defense position had become hell on earth!

Such a violent shelling, while defeating the American infantry, also created a formidable battle for the Iranian army.

bother.

Not to mention anything else, more than 24 sub-compartment bullets were dropped about 10,000 anti-personnel bullets at the US military positions, and about 20,000 anti-armor bullets were dropped. That is to say, after the shelling was over, the Iranian army's offensive forces had to send minesweepers first.

This cannot be blamed on the artillery brigade of the first combat unit, but the Iranian artillery guide made a mistake.

.

When requesting artillery support, Iran's artillery guide was probably a linguistic obstacle and put forward the requirement of "comprehensive fire support". According to the standards of the Republic's Army, not only should fire at the maximum intensity, but also consider delaying the enemy's counterattack operations while attacking, and also use sub-compartment bullets with the ability to block the offense. In fact, Iran's artillery guide should put forward the requirement of "comprehensive fire suppression" rather than the word "comprehensive fire support". The difference between the two words causes unimaginable trouble to the Iranian army.

Similarly, it also brought about a disaster.

After the shelling is over, the U.S. Armored Battalion is in place for about minutes, which is around the battlefield time point.

At this time, more than half of the armored forces of the Khomeini Division were concentrated at the forefront of the position of the US infantry battalion, waiting for the minesweeper to open a safe passage, and the other half of the armored forces followed the division headquarters to stay about kilometers northward to serve as the tactical reserve for this round of attack. In other words, the Iranian general who did not consider the reserve team before finally thought about the importance of the reserve team. It is also true that there was a gap of about kilometer wide between the vanguard of the Khomeini Division and the main force. What's more, when the Khomeini Division stopped, the Avaz, who had been operating in the east, also slowed down, thus making the junction between the two divisions wide by Dudley kilometers.

Mu Yong doubted that these were two very fatal loopholes.

Not to mention Duchway and Blücher, even the major battalion commander of the US Armored Battalion was a little unbelievable after receiving the battlefield message from the unmanned reconnaissance plane. He was so lucky that he encountered such a vulnerable army.

At this time, the first armored war in the Middle East War is finally about to begin.
Chapter completed!
