Chapter 483: Mighty and Domineering

The Sunburn anti-ship missile, a new generation of Soviet anti-ship missile, uses a rocket ramjet combination engine, and can even reach a speed of Mach 3 at high altitudes! The basic range is 90 kilometers, but now it is only 60 kilometers away, so when it arrives next to the Babur, there is still some fuel left!

Speed ​​brings huge kinetic energy. Even if nothing else, just being hit by a four-ton guy at a speed of Mach 2 is not something a warship with a displacement of less than 10,000 tons can withstand.

Not to mention that now, the 300-kilogram semi-armor-piercing warhead, with a sharp roar, penetrated into the Babur-class ship one meter above the waterline, easily tearing open the side of the Babur-class ship, and then, a violent explosion sounded inside the warship, mixed with the unburned fuel, and a huge fire quickly ignited.

"Boom!" With a huge explosion, the Babur-class ship broke apart from the part that had just been pierced!

The Babur class, built in the 1940s, had no reaction to the Sunburn anti-ship missiles on the Sovremenny class in the 1980s. Although it was equipped with the Standard 1 air defense missile, it could only intercept a subsonic anti-ship missile at most. Coupled with the serpentine maneuver, the target warship was completely unable to react and was destroyed!

Naked, mighty and domineering!

When the Sunburn anti-ship missile was designed, a single hit could severely damage a warship with a displacement of less than 20,000 tons. But now, to deal with this little guy with a displacement of 3,000 tons, it was like using a sledgehammer to kill a fly, which was extremely sharp!

The seawater rushed in quickly. Facing the Babur-class ship that was broken into two pieces, the captain had no choice but to issue the order to retreat. Countless sailors jumped off the Babur-class ship and swam towards the shore. For them, this process was short, because they just leaned against the dock and swam a dozen meters to the shore. At the same time, this process was also long, because the warships behind them were slowly disappearing!

After watching all this on TV, Joseph couldn't help but stick out his tongue. The big guys in the navy are still the most exciting!

Now that the only threat has been eliminated, let our air force take over the rest!

Although the position of Bandar Abbas Port in Iran is becoming more and more important, this important port does not have effective air defense force. As Iran lost its air superiority, they had to mobilize the remaining surface-to-air missile forces to the front line. Therefore, in Bandar Abbas Port, there is only one long-range early warning radar, and the only air defense force is the ship-borne air defense missiles on the Babur class.

Unfortunately, in the face of absolute equipment advantage, the Iranians did not react at all.

Fighting the Iranian navy and bullying the weak? Of course it should be! The Iranians dared to incite terrorist riots during the Moscow Olympics. This is the biggest challenge to the Soviets! All the armed forces of the Iranian HMN government must be completely destroyed!

Now, it’s just the beginning!

Joseph quickly turned the handle and pressed the aiming crosshairs onto an "Alvand" class frigate on the other side of the Babur-class ship in the port. This frigate with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons was just a target ship.

At this time, the gas turbine warships will show great advantages. In the event of a sudden attack, as long as they are started, they can immediately run at full power. But now, these warships relying on steam turbines cannot be started at all before the boilers are pressurized to a sufficient pressure!

Press the red button on the joystick, fire flashes under the belly of the aircraft, and the KH29 air-to-ground missile flies out!

The appearance of this missile is very similar to the American Maverick air-to-ground missile. It can be considered a tactical weapon used to attack ground and water targets. Although its range is not high, it is the most suitable weapon under the current circumstances!

Dozens of seconds later, another loud noise was heard on the water surface. The KH-29 missile with a 320-kilogram warhead that flew down from the sky exploded at the waterline of the target warship. A large hole quickly appeared, and sea water rushed in.

The Iranian Navy, which was left with only anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, had no room to fight back against the missiles flying from ten kilometers away. The Iranian Navy's equipment caught fire under the attack of the Soviet carrier-based aviation.

Iranian naval targets in the port are handled by carrier-based aviation, while military facilities inside the port are entirely handled by Tu-22M bombers!

War is all about the real and the fake, and Andre did a great job in this regard! Facing the threat of the US Navy's aircraft carrier formation, Andre mobilized the Tu-22M bomber and fiddled with anti-ship missiles on the ground, making the Americans think that they were going after the US Navy.

But in fact, this bomber unit was targeting Iran's Abbas port!

The Tu-22M bomber has swept wings. As a variable-sweep wing bomber, its unique advantage is its supersonic cruise capability. After taking off from the Zahedan base, they flew directly to Bandar Abbas. After dawn, when the naval aviation unit arrived, the Tu-22M bomber also arrived!

Fire, fire!

The Iranians were almost going crazy. At this moment, the warships in the port were sunk one after another. The hearts of the Iranian soldiers on land were bleeding. They had no time to react. A huge roar was heard in the air!

Fight bravely! The Revolutionary Guards used their greatest power. They sat on the twin-mounted 100mm anti-aircraft guns, turning the handwheels quickly, with the gun barrels pointing straight to the sky.

Although the status of anti-aircraft guns has gradually declined with the continuous development of anti-aircraft missiles, as an anti-aircraft weapon, anti-aircraft guns have never been outdated! Even in the Vietnam War a few years ago, American aircraft were seriously threatened by ground-based anti-aircraft guns!

"Deviate to the right by three meters, three shots, fire!" At the anti-aircraft gun position, a lookout holding a telescope quickly issued combat orders.

The anti-aircraft artillery soldiers quickly turned the wheel and then stepped on the trigger.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The muzzle roared, and one shell after another flew up!

I will never passively take a beating, fight back, fight back!

In the sky, black smoke was forming. It was the trace of the explosion of anti-aircraft shells. At this time, the lookout had discovered the problem. The Soviet planes were flying at a height that exceeded the firing height of their own anti-aircraft guns!

The maximum firing height of a 100mm anti-aircraft gun is 10,000 meters, while the enemy's height is over 10,000 meters!
