Chapter 330 Knowledge is power
"Let me go! Let me go! Let me go..."
Fighting against Gao Yi, the donkey is the birthday boy who hangs himself because he thinks he has a long life.
Gao Yi grabbed the donkey's wrist and twisted it slightly. Seeing that the donkey's anger quickly disappeared and his tone softened, he let go.
How can we make the donkey lose its fighting ability at this critical moment?
The donkey took two steps back, rubbed his wrist, pondered for a moment, and said, "I understand."
Why did the British navy appear here? Gao Yi couldn't figure it out even if he died.
Of course the British had reason to take revenge on Gao Yi. This is a no-brainer. What I don’t understand is how a British Navy helicopter could appear on the outskirts of Baghdad.
The only thing is that the helicopter's range is limited and it is impossible to fly so far from the British mainland to the hinterland of Iraq.
"The UK has only one helicopter carrier, the amphibious assault ship HMS Ocean. The transport aircraft carried by HMS Ocean is the Sea King assault transport aircraft, and the MK7-Lynx attack helicopter..."
The only one who knew all about British warships and helicopters was Donkey. He still didn't know why the British navy came, but he knew which ship the British navy would come to.
Since it was a Sea King transport helicopter, the attack aircraft could only be a Lynx.
Then, the donkey seemed to have gained great confidence. He said urgently to Gao Yi: "The Sea King has a maximum range of 600 nautical miles, the Lynx has a maximum range of 630 kilometers, but the transition range reaches 1,300 kilometers, and the closest coastline to Baghdad is Persia.
Bay, but the closest coastline from Baghdad to Baghdad is 600 kilometers away, and the Lynx’s combat radius is simply not enough!”
This is an analysis of combat based on the characteristics of weapons.
If the Bobcat armed helicopter is fully loaded with the maximum amount of weapons, it can fly as far as 630 kilometers. However, combat is not about flying and leaving, but requires staying in the air to fight. So if the combat time is set aside, it can only fly 200 kilometers at most, which is basically
not enough.
The distance of the transfer flight can reach more than a thousand kilometers, but it does not carry any weapons, and all the load is used to hold fuel.
Listening to Donkey's explanation with a familiarity, the armed helicopter outside did appear to be very restrained. That is to say, when it first bombed the room where the mobile phone was located, it used three missiles extravagantly, and later fired two more missiles during suppression.
It fired missiles and a bunch of cannons, but other than that, it was gone.
Now we know why. Because the British armed helicopters do not have enough range, they can only choose the most common method, which is to only mount a small number of weapons and leave more weight for oil. In this way, they can suddenly increase the combat radius.
Expanded to more than 600 kilometers, and can only come and go.
"The British helicopters cannot go back once they arrive. They don't have enough remaining fuel to go back, so they must land in Baghdad to refuel. But in any case, their flight time cannot be very long, and they can carry the minimum number of missiles.
, mounting a base number of artillery shells takes up a lot of counterweight. It is impossible for the British to send armed helicopters to just fly normally, then...their remaining airborne time will not exceed half an hour, at most half an hour, I don't have
Calculate carefully, no, twenty minutes at most!"
As the donkey talked, his brain was also working rapidly.
He must be such a professional who knows everything about weapons, equipment, and tactics. After confirming the model of an aircraft, he can immediately deduce the rest.
Let Feng Biao do the same thing. It would be good if he could tell it was a British plane. If Lin Xianghua came to see it, he would probably know that it was a helicopter.
This is the power of knowledge.
In any field, knowledge is power.
Gao Yi thought that Donkey's performance was already very good and super awesome, because he knew that the enemy's armed helicopter could not stay for too long, so it would be enough to survive for half an hour, but the surprises given by Donkey were obviously more than that.
"The enemy can only attack quickly, otherwise they will lose their air cover. They have only one tactic, which is to avoid our heavy firepower in the factory and enter through a breach on the east side of the building... Well, no, they don't have time.
They will attack from the main entrance of the building, and the armed helicopters only have enough ammunition for one round of suppression, so the first attack will be a decisive battle. There will be no repeated tests, let alone repeated attacks. After our firepower points are exposed, the armed helicopters will destroy them."
Donkey became excited, and he shouted to his men beside him: "Go, inform everyone, and let the enemy in to fight!"
We no longer pursue keeping the enemy outside, but instead bring the enemy in to fight indoors, because in this case, the enemy's armed helicopters will be ineffective.
So awesome. Gao Yi felt that the Tomahawk Mercenary Group was really awesome.
At this time, Gao Yi couldn't help but said: "We have anti-aircraft guns. Can't the anti-aircraft guns destroy the enemy's armed helicopters?"
The donkey said without hesitation: "What are you thinking about? You are innocent!"
I wanted to say ignorant, but changed my mind and said naive.
Donkey looked impatient but still said quickly: "The anti-aircraft guns are in the factory, do they have a shooting range? Even if the anti-aircraft guns are pushed out, how can the anti-aircraft guns without any optical sighting equipment detect helicopters in the night sky and not shoot them?
, as long as you leave the protection of the factory, the anti-aircraft guns will be shot down by helicopters immediately."
Although anti-aircraft guns have the ability to attack helicopters, they must be used in a systematic manner. For example, advanced self-propelled anti-aircraft guns with radar and laser rangefinders. This advanced automated anti-aircraft gun bicycle can also form combat effectiveness.
Another option is to have radar and use several anti-aircraft guns in clusters, so that old anti-aircraft guns can also pose a threat to helicopters.
But after pushing out the two single cannons, deploying them, and then searching for helicopters, they were still anti-aircraft guns operated by unprofessional gunners, and they were left to be beaten in front of helicopters.
Now the donkey just wants to fight according to his ideas, he doesn't care what Gao Yi said.
Of course, Gao Yi knew that he was an outsider, so he would not tell anyone what to do.
Gao Yi said to the donkey: "We can join the war. You can directly command us on what to do, and we will obey your command."
Gao Yi thought it was the simplest principle to leave professional matters to professional people, but his attitude surprised Donkey.
Donkey glanced at Gao Yi, hesitated, and finally said: "You can't die. Who will pay the balance if you die?"
At this time, it is very dangerous to even probe to check the enemy's movements, because once exposed, it will immediately lead to a helicopter attack.
"Boss, there are a lot of people. It is impossible to determine the specific number of people. Our drone cannot be released. It is too dangerous to rely solely on visual observation."
The Tomahawk Mercenary Group also has drones, but right now, they can't fly them.
After hearing the report from his subordinates, Donkey said loudly: "Get out of the way, concentrate on a safe position indoors, and set up the machine gun in the corridor. Hurry! The enemy's armed helicopters lack firepower and cannot pose an actual threat to this building."
The donkey has gotten rid of the initial panic and confusion. He is now calm and wise.
Looking at Gao Yi again, Donkey whispered: "Abandon the third and fourth floors. My people will mainly stay on the first floor. You stay on the second floor. If the battle situation is critical, you will join the battle. If the battle situation is not so..."
The sound of cannons always likes to interrupt the donkey's speech.
The roaring explosion sounded, and Donkey temporarily shut up, but the explosion did not last long. After more than ten seconds, Donkey said again: "The artillery preparation is just a weakened version of the artillery preparation. The enemy is going to launch an attack."
They approached from the east, turned to the south, and attacked from the entrance of the building. Soon we will be able to look directly at the enemy's attacking troops, the British Marines..."
At this point, Donkey paused. After thinking for a moment, he continued: "The strength of the British Marine Corps is not bad, but our defense can last for a long time. Without air protection, I think the British will withdraw. If the battle situation is not very serious,
It's critical, don't go downstairs to join the battle."
No matter what, you must leave someone who can pay. Donkey said seriously: "If you can't pay, I will be very angry!"
What else can Gao Yi say, just listen to others' orders.
At this time, a distant and dull sound was heard.
The donkey turned his head slightly, and then he said in a deep voice: "Lego is on fire!"
The members of the Lego Mercenary Group did not run away. They opened fire decisively when they discovered that the enemy began to appear along the side of the office building.
If the British came, then Gao Yi and the others were not betrayed, and the enemy would probably not know what surprise Gao Yi had prepared for them.
Although the British were covered by helicopters, Gao Yi and others were covered by anti-aircraft guns.
Surprised or not? Unexpected?
A soldier from the Tomahawk Mercenary Group ran over again and shouted excitedly: "Lego opened fire, the enemy suffered heavy casualties, and almost all the first batch of attacking members were killed!"
Lego chose a good time, a good time to fire.
Donkey breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Our situation is not bad. If the British only have this ability, they will not be able to fight in, and indoor wars can be avoided."
Gao Yi was very happy and said: "It would be great to tell the Lego Mercenary Group this news, but it's a pity that there is no communication."
Donkey raised his head, thought for a moment, and then said with confidence: "The British only have one carrier-based helicopter that can provide electronic interference, the Bobcat HAS.3GM, it should be this model. I don't know much about the British Navy's current main electronic warfare helicopters.
, but this model was used during the Gulf War, and the British did not change their carrier-based aircraft on the USS Ocean. In other words, even if their Lynx helicopters were upgraded with electronic warfare equipment, the range would not be greatly improved.
"
The situation suddenly became less critical, and Donkey was free to analyze the equipment again.
Raising his hand and looking at his watch, Donkey continued: "A total of eight minutes have passed since the electronic jamming was turned on. If my judgment is correct, the electronic jamming will last for another ten minutes at most. The reason is very simple. The armed helicopter can reduce the number of mounts.
Ammunition increases fuel, but not electronic warfare aircraft, so communications will be restored soon, for sure.”
