Chapter 124 The Fallen White Swan
When Taiwan became a sea of fire, the two Tu-160s flying to the South China Sea Chinese Republic were still cruising at high subsonic speeds. They had to work harder. After all, the journey was much longer, and the squadron's raid had a strong political purpose. They wanted to let all countries in Southeast Asia know that the South China Sea Chinese Republic was bombed by them. This country that had only been founded for a year was just like this. Don't you hurry up and drive the Chinese who have seized your living space out of the Strait of Malacca. When will it last? This air strike with a strong political color requires Tu-160 Squadron to be as close to the South China Sea Chinese Republic as possible, so that as many people can see them, this undoubtedly adds certain risks to this operation, but compared with the political benefits to be obtained, this risk is nothing.
Given that the Nanyang Chinese Republic's Air Force has strong combat effectiveness and strong air defense capabilities, these two Tu-160s are very clever to maintain the altitude at about one thousand meters to avoid scanning of large air defense radar stations built by China on various islands in Nanyang.
The calm and deep South China Sea is like a dark green carpet, spreading endlessly below. The sparks on the sea surface are not clear, and it is impossible to tell which are starlight and which are fishing fires. The fires from oil drilling wells shot straight into the sky, and can be seen dozens of kilometers away. It is very spectacular. Soviet pilots watched all this greedily and swallowed their saliva. In the prosperous Southeast Asia and the warm Southeast Asia, when will the Soviet Union embrace this treasure land?
A highlight appeared on the radar screen, which was the famous Polaris Oil Drilling Platform. This platform played a role as a floating airport in the Chinese evacuation operation a year ago, and became famous. Many countries accused that this was not an oil drilling platform, but it was a super aircraft carrier floating on the sea surface and a non-sinking maritime fortress! But until now, China seems to have no intention of arming this maritime platform, so it’s all right.
The Polaris Oil Rig Platform is almost a big road sign. You will know when you see it. A few hundred kilometers ahead will reach the North Ca coast! The squadron leader shouted in a deep voice: "Start the missile!"
The fire controller pressed the button, and sixteen KH-55a air-launched cruise missiles scrambled to fall, and the huge fuselage was light! The terrain matching guidance data had been input, and as long as they fired the cruise missiles out, the mission was basically completed. Next, they would return and drink vodka to celebrate!
However, things were not that simple. Just as these two Tu-160s were about to turn back, a smooth swish! Four red and dazzling bullet marks that lasted several meters long broke through the air from the bottom to the sky, passing through them, and the sound boom took more than ten seconds to catch up. Like a few crazy thunder, the fuselage of Tu-160 was shaken slightly! The pilot who witnessed this scene exclaimed in horror: "Look, look over there!" Their voices were sharp and terrified, because they saw---
When that ten
When six cruise missiles pulled the smoke flames hundreds of meters long and rushed towards the Beika coast hundreds of kilometers away at high subsonic speed, the offshore oil drilling platform suddenly vibrated slightly. It seemed to have turned into an erupting volcano. Thousands of red blood-like star lights shot out at an initial speed of more than three thousand meters per second, pulling out fiery red trajectories in the night. Thousands of bullet marks crisscrossed, forming an impenetrable net of heaven and earth, wrapping the cruise missiles that were about to fly over the platform! —————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!
The KH-55a air-fired cruise missiles bathed in the rain of fire had no time to react, and the shells hit the head and faced with large holes in their bodies at speeds of more than Mach 12! The shells were not very large in diameter, and the mass of a shell was only about 30 grams, and they were solid and would not produce any fragments, but their speed was too fast! The speed of Mach 12, let alone the poorly thin bullet bodies of the cruise missiles, even a medium-sized armored vehicle had to be punched in the opposite direction! The rain of bullets came so dense that each shell had to penetrate a basin-sized hole on them, fuel and bullet debris splashed out, and thunder rolled
By then, the stepping stone of the Red Empire was crushed and turned into a rain of fire, reflecting the sea and the sky purple-red! Nine of the sixteen cruise missiles were crushed to pieces on the spot, three were covered in scars, and they were covered in thick smoke and fire. The aerodynamic fairing was knocked away. These three brothers started the Brownian movement at a height of 1,000 meters. One rushed into the sea and set off a wave peak of twenty or thirty meters high. Two ghosts collided in the air, exploding a terrifying smoke flame, and the fire rain splashed, which was spectacular! The remaining four were miraculously penetrated from the barrage and continued their journey of death. However, their good luck could only be maintained until the second wave of shells chased after them!
In just less than ten seconds, the second interception began. This time, since the cruise missile had crossed the maritime platform, the interception mode changed from head-on interception to tail-chasing interception. However, the speed difference between twelve Mach and zero point-8 Mach, there was such a huge difference, and there seemed to be no difference between head-on interception and tail-chasing interception. This time, the crew members of the two Tu-160 bombers were lucky enough to see the mysterious anti-aircraft guns on the maritime platform intercepting the cruise missiles: they could not see the erupting smoke balls and the moving chamber flames, they could not hear the rapid and dense.
The sound of cannons is not as good as rain. However, countless solid shells are indeed shot out from this huge platform. Although the bullet marks of the shells can only be seen two or three hundred meters away from the platform, witnesses firmly believe that these shells were fired from this platform! A crew member exclaimed: "I understand! A year ago, the group of aircraft full of soldiers evacuated from the Jawa battlefield in Japan was shot down by this new air defense weapon in this sea area! This is not an oil drilling platform, this is a floating
Moving sea fortresses, cunning Chinese, they deceived the whole world!”
The captain shouted: "Report to the command center immediately!"
The crisscrossing bullets woven into a terrible net of death. With a sudden twist, the remaining four KH-55a air-fired cruise missiles were smashed into pieces and turned into the second batch of single and expensive fireworks over the South China Sea. The squadron leader finally realized that he had made a very terrible mistake: they were too close to this mysterious sea platform! Now the Tu-160 formation is only 40 kilometers away from the sea platform. If the sea platform fires at them, including the maximum attenuation of the initial velocity of the shells, the shells will hit them in just over ten seconds! As soon as this terrible idea flashed through his mind, he saw a large group of meteor showers coming from bottom to top and hit them---China showed this ace, so naturally it was impossible for them to live!
The squadron leader hissed: "Climb! Climb! Leave this monster!"
The two pilots twisted the joystick and pushed it hard. The huge body of Tu-160 moaned like a complaining moan. The nose raised and climbed at any cost! However, they were not fighters after all. How high can they climb in ten seconds? Moreover, the despicable and shameless opponent seemed to have been a chef, and the shells they shot were spread as evenly as pepper sprinkled. Whether Tu-160 climbed or dived, they were all within the attack range of the barrage. A shell would be spread out about fifteen square meters. With a size of Tu-160, it would be sad to escape such an attack!
Facing the solid shells sweeping like the wind, all means of response and tactics have lost their effect. Fake actions are useless. The shells do not have guidance systems, so they ignore them and just rush around; infrared baits and electronic interference are useless. Solid shells are too low or simply have no IQ, and all temptations are useless to it; the Tu-160, which claims to be thick shells, is even more useless. Facing the shells that are shot at a speed of two or three thousand meters per second, even if they are covered with reaction armor, they will be smooth!
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The fuselage vibrates, and the sound of the shells passing through the body is so terrifying, no less than hearing a life-seeking ghost slapping the doors and windows in the middle of the night. The small shells hit the "pirate flag" with extremely high temperatures and splattering large pieces of body fragments. Each shell must carve a hole the size of a bathtub on them! The debris of the body splashed from the outside to the inside, faster than the speed of sound, and bursts of painful screams suddenly came from the cabin.
Almost every crew member was hit, sharp debris tore their bodies, and the pressure brought by high-speed flight made blood spurt out from these wounds, causing irreversible blood loss, and applying various instruments to a bloody red. Only three lucky people pulled down the ejection handle desperately, exploded bolts, ejected them out, and escaped from this sea of blood in time. However, they immediately regretted: they were almost just ejected from the aircraft,
The cannon shells hit in front of them! There is no regret medicine in the world. Now it is too late to do anything. They watched the cannon shells slashing back and forth, and they were so scared that their souls burst into tears and screamed loudly!
Three blood mist exploded in the sky, fragmented human tissue and ejection seat fragments splashed, and the shrill screams of horror came to an abrupt end.
The two Tu-160s, which were beaten into hornets' nests, ignited a fire, rushed to the calm and deep South China Sea with sadness, and crashed into the sea and broke into a huge explosion, causing huge waves. A squadron of the Soviet Strategic Bomber Force paid the price of blood for his carelessness in the enemy. The beautiful white swan fell in despair over the South China Sea.
On the sea platform, several middle-aged men in military uniforms held telescopes, staring at the direction of the fall of Tu-160, and their chests were undulating. After a while, a thin middle-aged man put down his telescope and spat fiercely: "Even two bombers dare to run to the South China Sea to play wild. Do you really treat us as Afghanistan?"
The middle-aged man who was guarded by everyone was covered with countless silver threads in his hair, and his voice was filled with vicissitudes of life: "Send a report to the central government that he killed two new Soviet bombers. This good news should boost morale." He sighed, "We are happy to fight this time, but the maritime platform has also been exposed... What should we do next? Should we go to the Strait of Malacca to block the gates of the Warsaw Pact and NATO fleets into the South China Sea, or return to China to participate in the war?"
Everyone fell into deep thought. Both choices were difficult. The maritime platform itself had no power and had to be dragged by a large flat-bottomed tugboat. The movement speed was slow, which was destined to be a maritime fortress, not an invincible warship. Its speed could barely reach the thirteenth knots. If it returned to China to participate in the war, it would take at least more than a month to return to the Yellow Sea. By then, only then would know that the Yellow Sea was still under the control of the Republic Navy! It was very necessary to stay here to block the Strait of Malacca and block the NATO and Warsaw Pact fleets that were shaking waves outside the gate of the South China Sea. Once the NATO and Warsaw Pact fleets passed this level, it would be difficult to reach the sky if they wanted to block them again! But in this way, the Polaris will only play a role of opinion for a long time in the future and cannot play any role in this war!
Should I leave or stay?
The choice is so difficult.
The middle-aged man, who is no longer young, looks up at the sky and sighs: "I hope Neptune can be assembled successfully as soon as possible... As long as Neptune is assembled successfully, the Bohai Bay defense line will be solid......"
