Chapter 655 Interference**
From the beginning of the war to the present, Iraq's major air defense networks and radar communication systems have been severely damaged by air strikes.
But after all, the Iraqi army has been tested in the decade-old war between Iran and Iran, and after the initial difficulties and discomfort, it gradually recovered. The expert group brought by Shostakovic also helped the Iraqi army summarize a complete set of effective methods to deal with missile attacks from multiple countries.
The basis of cruise missiles is inertial navigation. By determining the initial launch position, determining the state of motion, and accurately knowing its position through inertial navigation devices. However, this navigation method will have accumulated errors in inertial gyros. The longer the time, the greater the error. Especially for air-launched cruise missiles, the gyros start working before takeoff, and the error is higher. Therefore, other methods must be added, mainly terrain matching, that is, during the cruise stage, the flight route is determined according to some major terrain reference objects and ultimately attack the target.
However, most of the Middle East are deserts, and there is no clear target positioning at all. It is very difficult to match the navigation terrain of cruise missiles. The US military used ready-made Iraqi villages as reference for missile-guided terrain matching. The Iraqi army's frontier observation posts have also been discovered many times that a large number of cruise missiles flew over some villages from a low altitude of 50 meters above them.
At the same time, the more important thing is to use a crystallization of the American Star Wars, which is the GPS system! The military signal of this system can give missiles a 0.1-meter attack accuracy! Even if the United States uses villages to navigate, it is not accurate. Only the GPS system is the magic weapon to make the cruise missile hit wherever it is!
Therefore, if the GPS signals and communication channels on cruise missiles can be effectively blocked, these missiles can be effectively dealt with.
This is exactly the function of the jammer. Shostakovic smuggled thousands of jammers into Iraq!
After Shostakovic's explanation, Saddam also understood the value of this batch of jammers. These things are large in number, strong in power and small in size. They are used to arrange the main routes of US cruise missiles and assist anti-aircraft artillery troops in combat, which is very effective.
The opinions of the "Soviet Military Advisory Group" made Saddam know in his mind. It turned out that there were ways to deal with the high-tech weapons of the US military.
He immediately ordered the use of wired telephone contact to rebuild the Iraqi army's command system according to Shostakovic's suggestion. At the same time, he arranged the jammers at the main node where the cruise missile passed. He blocked the US military's control of the missile, forcing the other party to use fixed lines and cruise flight methods. He created conditions for the anti-aircraft artillery troops to wait for the rabbit.
In addition, the Iraqi army has re-adjusted the air defense forces and arranged them in layers where the cruise missiles may pass through the ground line. In particular, the anti-aircraft artillery troops are concentrated behind the main reference point of the missile. Whenever the cruise missile flies past, it concentrates fire and uses barrage to concentrate on destroying the opponent's missiles.
With the assistance of the frontline early warning, in just a few days, the damage caused by US cruise missiles to key Iraqi targets has been reduced to a tolerable level.
The US military also discovered the failure of the old attack mode. They attempted to change the flight control of the missile, using the intermediary control of the e3 air early warning aircraft to attack on multiple lines. They avoided the interception of the Iraqi army. However, facing a large number of jammers that won by number, the cruise missile was interfered with by powerful signals as soon as it entered Iraq, and could not receive air command. They could only fly dullly according to the predetermined line.
The US military front-line commander has responded to the White House, suspected that there are major powers to help the Iraqi army behind their backs, hoping to cut off Iraq's foreign aid through diplomatic and intelligence. But at present, we can only try to find ways to crack the Iraqi army's new tactics through other channels.
Although GPS jammers and anti-aircraft guns can destroy low-fly fixed-line cruise missiles, they cannot destroy high-altitude bombing. The US military has stepped up bombing of Iraqi military-local command centers, communication centers, and air defense positions, and laser bombs and air-ground missiles to show ground opportunities more and more frequent.
But the Iraqi army is also working hard to repair various facilities.
Often after the daytime bombing of the US military, the Iraqi army partially restored some of the functions of these facilities under the cover of night, allowing the multinational troops to "fight like rats and fight tenaciously" (the words of General Schwartzkopf, commander of the multinational troops) to bomb repeatedly.
The battle situation fell into a stalemate at this time.
The troops of many countries consume a large number of cruise missiles, laser bombs and other weapons and ammunition, while in Iraq, there were a large number of casualties and facilities were destroyed.
Saddam is now full of trust in the "Soviet Military Advisory Group" led by Shostakovic. As soon as Shostakovic came, he now equipped his Scud with more advanced local guidance system, which made the Americans suffer a great loss in Dhahran. As soon as the news spread in Iraq, the whole country was really celebrating. The Iraqi army was also full of energy and added some confidence to resist the US offensive.
This time, GPS jammers and anti-aircraft artillery forces cooperated, greatly reducing the heavy pressure the Iraqi army was under.
Now the Iraqi army will never start the war in the early days, and it is in panic all day long.
As Saddam continued to appear on the front line, giving the soldiers courage. After several tactical victories, the soldiers on the front line had already talked and laughed and their morale began to recover after adapting to the atmosphere on the battlefield.
He deeply agreed with Shostakovic's suggestion that he would hide those advanced weapons first and not expose them to the US military, and would give the enemy a heavy blow at critical moments.
Shostakovic explained that although the Soviet Union could support some of his advanced weapons, it was impossible to stand on his side in the end.
How to use existing equipment to severely damage the enemy is the next focus.
Therefore, although the radar station is restoring its functions one by one, the communication cable is being laid quickly, and the Iraqi army's ability to resist strikes is gradually increasing, Saddam did not move at all.
The reason why he was so calm was because Shostakovic had formulated an extremely bold offensive plan for him.
Shostakovic couldn't understand Mhamad anymore.
The instructions he has always received come from emails.
In the previous mission, Shostakovic went to a valley on the border between Iraq and Syria, hid a large amount of weapons and equipment there, and then delivered it to Iraq.
During the Gulf War, Iraq was subject to an international embargo, and Syria even sent several armored divisions to participate in multinational forces. However, as a lineage with the Iraqi Baath Party, although the Syrian Baath Party, which is in line with the Iraqi Baath Party, hated the Saddam regime, but it also hated and even hostile to the United States. During the Lebanese crisis of 1984-85, the Syrians had long experienced the bad behavior of the United States pulling Israel off. Even the Syrian air defense forces had fierce fire with the US Navy air force, shooting down and injured several US aircraft, and they were also bombed out multiple air defense missile positions, killing and injuring many people. These things were never forgotten by the Syrians!
Syria is highly vigilant about the United States' full access to the Middle East by taking advantage of the Gulf War. Therefore, like Jordan, which has always silently supported Iraq, Syria has also closed the borders of the two countries on the surface and even participated in multinational forces. However, in secret, there are still a lot of materials that have been continuously flowing into Iraq through the borders of the two countries.
As one of the few allies of the Soviet Union in the Middle East, the influence of the Soviet Union is also in all aspects for this country. Shostakovic this time pulled up the Soviet Union's tiger skin and smuggled a large amount of arms into Syria, which really scared the Assad government. Of course, at the cost of money and advanced Soviet weapons and equipment that divert the border, the Syrians were also willing to be blind. Just treat it as seeing nothing and knowing nothing.
This batch of supplies, including various new weapons of the Soviet army, was so numerous that it had been more than 20 days in a row. Iraqi side was using the cover of the night to use the Republican Guard to transport large quantities of containers from the border, and then used a convoy to quietly disperse to various hidden points in the territory. From that moment on, the Iraqi people completely believed that Shostakovic and his group were secret military aid personnel of the Soviet Union. After providing information on the US military's base for the Helan, the Iraqi army used 5 Scuds and Hussein missiles to severely damage the base, Saddam even trusted Shostakovic and his group and listened to his plan.
"Could it be that what Mhamad said has come now!"
At this time, Shostakovic had just received a CD from a connector arranged by Omar and couldn't help but sigh.
He returned to the luxurious room of the Sheraton Hotel where he lived, turned on the computer, inserted the CD into it and opened an encrypted document. He entered the password. After reading a small part, he was stunned.
This time I really want to play big, come and be cruel. If I really cause major losses to the US military and the United States as planned, the Bush administration will directly enter a violent state. Maybe I will throw nuclear weapons at Iraq. Will Saddam have such great courage to implement such a seemingly crazy plan?
At the end of the document, there are some secret language instructions.
He silently memorized the contents inside, and then lit the disc with a lighter and melted it.
Now my life no longer belongs to me. I have devoted myself to that country in Afghanistan. Although I no longer belong to the warrior under the red flag, my warrior blood is still pouring out.
Although the Soviet Union is difficult to return and the United States is so aggressive, if Mhamad's plan is really successful, perhaps the external environment of the Soviet Union will improve.
Since you are already in control, then the chess piece must also have the awareness of the chess piece. If you have the value of being used, it will prove that you will not be abandoned by others for the time being. Then just complete your own tasks and don’t have to think about anything else. I hope that the promises Mhamad made to him will not be untrustworthy and cheap. It was betrayed by others before, and it would be enough for one time!
