Chapter 196 Lease Early Warning Aircraft

Madurai Babu lay under a table. Just now, a bomb fell from above and smashed the roof of the command tower and landed in the center of the command tower. At that time, he thought he was about to die. Fortunately, the bomb did not explode, but just killed a person when it fell.

The bombing outside was over, and he didn't dare to look at it. He was trembling all over and hid under the table and didn't dare to get up.

"Commander, the Pakistanis have left." The guard next to him said: "This bomb has not exploded yet, but there is a danger of explosion at any time. You'd better evacuate immediately."

Yes, the threat of the bomb is still there! This sentence made him come out from under the drilling table and walk out with a pale face.

It's over, Madurai Babu knew that his military career was over.

The Adampur base is the main base for Pakistan, and is responsible for the northwest defense mission of New Delhi. It has a heavy responsibility. Hundreds of fighter jets have been deployed here. After decades of construction, it has reached its current scale.

However, the bombing of a few minutes completely changed the appearance of this place. Madurai Babu walked out of the command tower and looked at the wreckage of the bombing everywhere outside. Countless ground crew members were putting out fires, and medical soldiers ran around.

"Statistical losses," said Madurai Babu.

If all the planes enter the cave, the Pakistani people will at most blow up the runway, and they can also repair the runway and fight again, but now all the fighter planes have been destroyed.

"Only three MiG23 fighters towed into the hangar were not lost, and the rest of the battles were bombed, among which eleven fighters were expected to be recovered."

Only a dozen of fighter jets were bombed.

"Pakistan! I'll fight you!" Such a helpless voice floated on the empty airport.

"Two Tomcat fighters take off and monitor our eastern defense line day and night." Mhamad said calmly in the command tower of Sagoda Air Base.

Everyone's face was filled with a victory smile. On the ground, the Indians occupied dozens of their outposts. And they bombed a base of the Indians. Only one of their fighters had mechanical failures and withdrew from the battle. The rest flew back unscathed.

This is the first time that the Air Force has achieved such a major victory since the war between India and Pakistan!

Among the bombing fleets, the last one to return were two Phantom iii reconnaissance aircraft, who flew at the end. They were responsible for taking photos of the ground and evaluating the bombing effect.

The photos have been washed out, and you can see that the bombed fighter planes are smoking everywhere. The specific number may need to be counted, but it is certain that the air force of this base has been crippled.

"Chief of Staff, your phone number." Just after Mhamad had just reported the results of the battle to Islamabad, an adjutant said to Mhamad that there was another phone number.

Mhamad picked up the phone. There was a familiar voice inside.

"Lt. General Mhamad, congratulations on your victory." The words were Colonel Gritt, the US Navy at the Peshawar Air Base.

"Damn Indians, they tried to sneak attack our base, but fortunately we responded in time." Mhamad said that in front of the Americans, he had to look forced. It was the Indians who took the initiative to provoke the dispute!

"Yes, we have to teach the Indians a lesson." Colonel Grit said: "Now that the war has been completed, can those two early warning planes continue to patrol the west? In the past two days, Soviet planes have frequently fought with us. Without early warning planes, we are very passive."

For the Americans, attacking the Soviets was their focus. They were not willing to see India being greatly weakened, which was not in line with their strategy. In the past two days, the e-2 flew together and cruised eastward. The pressure on the west side of Peshawar was suddenly enormous, and the base was almost successfully attacked by the Soviets. Thinking of the situation at that time, Colonel Grit was sweating in his forehead. Colonel Grit, who was landing at the time, pulled the tomcats back up and fought with the Soviets. He injured a MiG-29 with a rattlesnake, which was considered expelling them.

The Peshawar base is under great pressure, but the Pakistani personnel in the base are unwilling to drag down the war in the east. Printing and saving people is more satisfying than fighting the Soviets. They have been persisting. The e-2 early warning aircraft is still stationed at their base. This time they came back to talk about the results of the battle, and the Peshawar base also cheered.

Colonel Grit was very dissatisfied. He called the US ambassador and decided to communicate with Mhamad first. In this way, the phone called Sargoda.

"This is also something I want to discuss with you." Mhamad said: "Now, we are under great pressure. The Indians have just suffered a defeat and will definitely come to sneak attack again. We must not relax our vigilance. The west is indeed very tight. The current situation is that our early warning aircraft is seriously insufficient. Can you temporarily rent us two e-2 early warning aircraft? When we talked about early warning aircraft, we originally wanted four, but you reduced two. If you agreed happily at that time, there would be no problem now. The origin of this problem is that there were fewer at the beginning."

Was there any missing at the beginning? Lieutenant General Mhamad complained about this, not blushing at all for the incident at that time! A counterfire actually exchanged so many things from his country! Grit thought in disappointment.

"Lanking is impossible. Our Navy's e-2 early warning aircraft are all in service on aircraft carriers, and there is no extra one. It is impossible to rent it to you." Gritt said: "We should discuss letting these two early warning aircraft patrol the western border for the time being."

"As far as I know, you are rushing to the Kitty Hawk aircraft carrier in the Indian Ocean this time, so there should be six e-2 early warning aircraft? Four are enough to complete uninterrupted patrols, just two of them can be evenly matched. When the dispute between us and the Indians is over, will you take it away?" Mhamad said: "Now we are in the most tense moment. As our most loyal allies, your country will definitely help us."

The early warning aircraft carried by an aircraft carrier is not completely fixed. Between four and six, the Kitty Eagle came this time, which happened to have six.

How can this be? It is an early warning aircraft of the US Navy, not from Pakistan. How to borrow? How to borrow? Do you have to pay rent? Or is it a waste of money? Gritt didn't know how to respond, but a sharp air defense alarm sounded on the other party's phone.

"The Indians are coming to attack, I have to hang up the phone immediately. I'll ask you all about renting an early warning aircraft." After the other party said this, the phone was full of busy tone.

After putting down the phone, Grit's face felt embarrassed. It was really absurd to fly two e-2s from the aircraft carrier? But, besides this method, what else can relieve the current situation? If you want to blame it, blame the Indians.

This place is all mountainous, and there is no early warning of early warning aircraft. The blind spot is too big and there is a possibility of sneak attack at any time.

During the days he came, Grit fought with these Pakistani Air Forces. Unconsciously, he had already considered himself as a member of the here. He fought the Soviets without hesitation, but now he seemed to have no other choice.

After thinking for a while, Gritt had no choice but to pick up the phone and dial the number of the US Embassy again.

"Are the Indians coming?" Mhamad asked Captain Chudley, the commander of the base.

"No, we found a large aircraft in the Amritsar area on the border. I thought it was an Indian bomber. After our Tomcat fighter approached, we found that it was a civil aviation passenger plane." said the base commander.

The Amritsar base is a small military-civilian dual-use airport, which is very close to Pakistan. The flight of such a civil aviation plane made them nervous.

Fortunately, the pilot of the Tomcat fighter did not open fire immediately. If it were a bomber, the other party would fly over like this. It was really unrealistic, so the pilot took the risk to get close to confirm with his eyes.

Civil aviation passenger plane! Mhamad said: "We must prevent accidental attacks on civil aviation passenger planes. Now our actions have received support from Western countries. If we accidentally attack civil aviation passenger planes and the media exaggeration, our troubles will come."

Mhamad's concerns make sense. No matter any country, shooting down civil aircraft will be condemned by the whole world, which is the most serious air crash.

Pakistan's help to Afghanistan to resist the invasion of the Soviets has been approved by the whole world, and Western countries have strongly supported it, including the F-16 fighter jets purchased by Pakistan, part of which comes from US military aid. Now, when the battle between Pakistan and the Soviet Union may expand, India is taking the jaws from the fire. The West is very dissatisfied with this. Pakistan stands at a moral level and announces the establishment of a no-fly zone. Except for the Indians themselves, Western countries have not said anything. Now that they have bombed India's air bases, the West is also applauding and blowing up well! Teach the Indians a lesson!

However, if the civil aviation passenger plane is shot down, it will change all of a sudden. Those human rights figures will pull the passenger's family to protest, especially if there are Westerners among the passengers. Even one will bring strong dissatisfaction to the West, and the West will re-examine Pakistan's no-fly zone.

Is this sudden appearance of civil aviation passenger plane a test by the Indians? Mhamad is very suspicious. With Ah San's personality, once he is at a disadvantage in confrontation head-on and finds that he is unable to turn the tables with conventional means, he will have bad ideas.
