The enemy's radar will not be turned on all at once.
To prevent being wiped out in one fell swoop, the ground attack aircraft in the air will not use up all the missiles at once.
The first wave of attacks consisted of only four ground attack aircraft. After firing their anti-radiation missiles, they quickly rose and flew towards the base.
In the sky of this area, there are still three ground attack aircraft loaded with missiles, ready to continue attacking at any time.
On the other side, a formation of armed helicopters has also arrived in this airspace.
The commanders of both sides communicated with each other, and then the armed helicopters began to work.
Now some of the enemy's air defense radars are definitely not turned on and have not been destroyed, but under normal circumstances, they will definitely not turn them on again.
Now we can only let the armed helicopters start the attack and act as bait to attract the enemy's radar to turn on.
Such is the fate of these helicopters.
The helicopters formed combat teams of two and began searching for enemy armored vehicles according to the targets recorded by the mountain warriors.
Usually, a mechanized infantry brigade is equipped with eighty to one hundred main battle tanks, which are their core assault force. Their powerful firepower, protection, and mobility are powerful weapons to tear through the enemy's defenses.
But there are more infantry fighting vehicles, numbering about 120 to 150.
These infantry fighting vehicles can carry eight fully armed soldiers in addition to the commander and gunner.
There are also some armored personnel carriers, which are also tracked, but their firepower and defense are weaker. However, their internal space is large and they can carry more soldiers and equipment. There are generally about 100 such vehicles.
Other special vehicles, such as self-propelled artillery, rocket launchers, air defense forces, command vehicles, communication vehicles, reconnaissance vehicles, etc., total about 80 vehicles.
If you count carefully, a mechanized infantry brigade has quite a few vehicles, including more than 400 armored vehicles.
When these mechanized troops face motorized infantry units, their overall combat power is basically crushed.
But when facing mechas and air forces, they are at a loss.
Especially now when facing armed helicopters, this thing is durable and was one of the natural enemies of tanks before the emergence of mechas.
An armed helicopter carries 32 anti-tank missiles and 600 rounds of ammunition for its machine guns.
What a concept! Even if we remove some of the tough tanks that can only withstand two missiles, at least twenty tanks can be destroyed after firing these missiles.
Machine guns are used to attack infantry or enemy armored vehicles, and can destroy at least ten or even more.
In the absence of air defense forces, armed helicopters can completely massacre ground vehicles.
And now, the slaughter has begun.
"Arrived at the first combat target location!"
"Start the attack!"
As the pilot recorded the sound, his co-pilot pressed the button.
The anti-tank missiles mounted on both sides of the fuselage began to be launched from a distance.
Although the enemy does not have radar, the anti-aircraft vehicle still has the power to fight back.
So these helicopters started shooting from a long distance, which is why they chose anti-tank missiles instead of rockets.
Like fixed-wing ground attack aircraft, the first wave of attack helicopters also targeted the surviving anti-aircraft vehicles.
Missiles fell from the sky one after another, carrying tracking missiles, which directly hit the ground troops and made them cry for their parents.
In a hidden central location, Lawson, commander of the 2nd Mechanized Brigade, had a look of agony on his face. He shouted orders, "Quick! Get all the troops to break out!"
"Don't crowd together! Run as far as you can!"
Lawson's order was quickly issued to the armored vehicles stationed in various locations. Some armored vehicles started up quickly and tried to escape from here as quickly as possible.
The hunt in the air continues. The missiles shot down from the top can hit tanks and armored vehicles with ease, just like opening a can.
A tank platoon of four tanks was fleeing from their original position at top speed.
But an armed helicopter following behind him from a distance was like the god of death in the sky, catching up at high speed.
Several soldiers climbed out of the turret, operated the anti-aircraft machine guns, and started shooting at the helicopter from a distance.
The dense rain of bullets did not have the desired effect on the armed helicopters. Not to mention whether they were accurate or not, even if they hit the target, it would have had no effect. These armed helicopters also have alloy armor.
The pilot sneered and began to lower the altitude while adjusting the angle.
“Squeak!”
The missile shot out with a white tail flame and headed straight for the fleeing tank.
On the tank side, the commander roared loudly: "Disrupt the system! Disrupt the system!"
"Pull the smoke!!"
“Bang, bang, bang!!”
A series of smoke bombs were sprayed out around the turret, instantly covering the middle of the tank with thick smoke.
There are also many metal pieces that interfere with electromagnetic signals, which are effective defensive measures.
The helicopter pilot snorted coldly and quickly climbed up to another place.
If it's difficult to fight here, then fight other enemies and come back to clean up later.
The tank's smoke bombs and interference will eventually be used up. A smoke bomb can only hide for two or three minutes when there is no wind, and it will disappear even faster when there is wind.
The battlefield was littered with fleeing enemy armored vehicles, as well as many destroyed tanks, armored vehicles, and armored personnel carriers.
“Boom!!”
A tank was on fire, and the shells in the ammunition depot began to explode due to the heat of the flames. The flames of the explosion shot up into the sky, and the shock wave was visible to the naked eye.
The battlefield environment was extremely harsh, with armored vehicles blown up everywhere.
A soldier escaped from an infantry fighting vehicle, holding a shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missile. His face was covered in blood, and it was unclear whether it was his own or his comrades'.
He carried an anti-aircraft missile and aimed at the armed helicopter that had just strafed and destroyed an infantry fighting vehicle at low altitude.
The soldier roared, "Die, damn you!"
“Squeak!”
Accompanied by a puff of white smoke, the anti-aircraft missile soared into the sky, tracking the heat source model of the armed helicopter.
"Enemy locked!"
"Enemy locked!"
Inside the helicopter, a series of signal lights and alarms sounded, and the pilot's originally calm expression now became a little panicked.
"Turn on the jamming!"
A series of jamming bombs were released, like a helicopter spreading two flaming wings.
But the distance was too close and they had very little time to react, so the missile still hit the attack helicopter.
“Boom!!”
The helicopter spun and fell from the sky, emitting black smoke.
