Supreme Sacred Ring, Carefree Tycoon!
In the 80s, a good-quality old Hainan Huanghuali round-backed armchair from the Qing Dynasty could be yours for just twenty yuan. Now, two million yuan o...
Modern warfare is sometimes just that simple.
Just like the Gulf War in 1991, the multinational forces led by the United States fought a beautiful modern war. In comparison, the Iran-Iraq War a few years ago was like children playing house.
Similarly, if the battle in Damukan tonight was the Iran-Iraq War, then when Nicholas Ballmer's two Gazelle attack helicopters appeared, the war immediately became the First Gulf War.
The Gulf War once again proved with ironclad facts how terrifying it is to have overwhelming air superiority and electromagnetic suppression in modern warfare.
Boss Saddam has deployed 77 divisions, 1.2 million people, 4,280 tanks, 2,800 artillery pieces, and 2,800 armored personnel carriers in his own country.
What about the multinational coalition? They are very simple. They just bully you, Boss Sa, because your air force is not good and electromagnetic suppression is not good. So from the beginning of the war, I will keep bombing you with fighter planes, bombing you with long-range precision firepower, and then use overwhelming electromagnetic suppression to paralyze your command system. When you, Boss Sa, are almost bombed, my ground troops will be dispatched all at once, crackling and hitting you, Boss Sa...
You, Boss Sa, have assembled so many ground troops, but what's the point? Under the bombing of my air force and precision-guided missiles, your ground troops are all scum...
In the end, the First Gulf War ended completely with 223 coalition soldiers killed, 697 wounded, 13 captured in 43 days, 25,000 Iraqis killed, 75,000 wounded, and Saddam Hussein raising the white flag.
Without looking at anything else, just looking at the casualty ratio of both sides will tell you how this war turned out.
This is not a war at all, this is simply a father beating his son!
Before the war broke out, no one could have imagined that the war would turn out like this. After all, Iraq at that time was known as the world's fourth most powerful military country, and its military strength was twice that of the multinational coalition. It was fighting on its own soil, and had the advantages of time, place, and people. Why did you, the multinational coalition, dare to attack us?
But the result was so incredible. The multinational coalition relied on its powerful air superiority and electromagnetic suppression, and just like a father beating his son, they cooked a meal of bamboo shoots and fried meat, and directly made Boss Sa obedient.
Then, both the bear and the rabbit were watching in amazement.
Damn, I didn't know war could be played like this! No, we have to keep up with the times, or else the pizza owner won't be much better...
This battle took place in the Damukan Jade Mine in Kachin State, northern Myanmar, in the winter of 1986. At the beginning, it was actually the same as the Iran-Iraq War or World War II. One side relied on its large numbers to attack, while the other relied on its superior weapons and the advantage of terrain to defend. If the battle continued like this, as long as there was enough ammunition, the battle would probably not end in three days and three nights.
Neither side has air superiority, so this battle is destined to be a evenly matched one.
Of course, if Chiron moved the 12.7mm heavy machine guns on the dozen gunboats to the front line, then with the power of these ten heavy machine guns, Chiron's troops would definitely break through the warehouse area. If the two 37mm dual-purpose guns on the first two gunboats were not too heavy for Chiron's soldiers to move, otherwise these two 37mm guns alone would be able to raze the warehouse area to the ground.
But no matter whether it was the 12.7mm heavy machine gun or the 37mm dual-purpose gun, they all turned into trash immediately after the Gazelle attack helicopter appeared.
Although the 12.7mm heavy machine guns can also pose a major threat to the Gazelle attack helicopters, and the 37mm cannons are something that the Gazelle attack helicopters have to avoid, this is at night. If the pilots of the Gazelle attack helicopters are a little smarter and turn off all the lighting equipment on the aircraft, then even if the two Gazelle attack helicopters are hovering in the air, those heavy machine guns and 37mm cannons will not be able to hit them.
How can you aim and shoot if you can't even see the person?
Besides, do you really think the Russian Hind is so easy to deal with? Do you really think the rockets and air-to-ground missiles on the six weapon racks on both sides of the Hind are just for show?
The rockets and air-to-ground missiles of the Hind are something that even the T72 main battle tank cannot contend with. How can your mere 30-ton inland gunboats resist them?
A Hind can carry four 9M17-Phalanga air-to-ground missiles and sixteen S-24 2400mm rockets. These air-to-ground weapons alone can wipe out all the gunboats. Not to mention that there is a Yak-B 12.7mm four-barrel Gatling heavy machine gun at the front of the Hind's nose...
In order to reduce weight and ensure the long range of the Hind, neither of the two Hinds was equipped with the more perverted GUV-8700 machine gun pod. If that thing was installed, it would be a nightmare for ground forces.
This GUV-8700 cannon pod is composed of three four-barrel Gatling machine guns, which means that when this thing is firing, there are three four-barrel Gatling machine guns firing at the same time...
One Vulcan cannon is enough to deal with, but three of them firing at the same time is terrifying just to think about.
However, it doesn’t matter that there is no GUV-8700 gun pod. The Yak-B 12.7mm four-barrel Gatling heavy machine gun at the front of the nose alone is enough to give the Myanmar government forces a hard time.
