Chapter 764 Need Flying Fish
Su-27, the latest fighter of the Soviet Union! It uses an advanced layout of wing slats and wing-body fusion, with excellent aerodynamic performance and various maneuvers that are beyond the understanding of fighter designers! This fighter has brought a shock to the Western world, even more than the former MiG-25.
After all, the secret to the MiG-25's survival was its high altitude and high speed. It could fly at an altitude of 30,000 meters and a speed of Mach 3, which was beyond the reach of the air defense missiles at the time.
However, where there is a spear, there is a shield. In recent years, the Western world has been constantly improving its air defense missile systems. For example, the Patriot system, which the US Army is most proud of, has been optimized specifically for the MiG-25. If the MiG-25 continues to fly in such an arrogant posture, it deserves to be beaten!
The Su-27 now brings them an even greater shock. After the Moscow Air Show, how many air forces of various countries are studying the Soviets' maneuvers and discussing how to restrain the other side in battle? The conclusions they reached are all frustrating. Except for the latest American fighters, no other aircraft can get an advantage over it!

At that time, the Su-27 was just a land-based fighter, but now, the situation has changed. The Soviets have actually deployed this huge and heavy fighter on their aircraft carriers!
In the past, satellites did observe that the Soviets were modifying the Su-27 carrier-based aircraft. However, modifying a carrier-based aircraft is not easy. Using land-based fighters to modify, strengthening the landing gear, increasing the structural strength of the fuselage, anti-salt treatment, etc., will all reduce the performance of the fighter, which requires replacing it with a better engine to achieve this.

They didn't expect that the Soviets would turn this fighter into a carrier-based aircraft so quickly! Moreover, taking off from the Soviet aircraft carrier, it must be a catapult takeoff! Because this aircraft carrier does not have a jump deck! How powerful would a fully loaded Su-27 be?
When receiving this report, Admiral John was watching a Sea Harrier carrier-based aircraft on his own aircraft carrier, which was slowly taking off from the deck, switching from a vertical take-off state to level flight, and then disappearing from his sight.
This is a routine training. Our aircraft carrier formation will conduct continuous exercises and training while crossing the Atlantic Ocean, and formulate combat plans. When the formation arrives in Argentina, a real war will begin!

The appearance of the Soviet aircraft carrier formation was an accident. In order to find out the truth, the British used Tornado fighters to conduct a trial flight. As a result, they were driven away by the other side's Su-27. Moreover, the other side launched missiles at them without hesitation!
"It would be great if we had a Soviet aircraft carrier!" Woodward suddenly spoke up from the side and said this.

If you want to have sea control, you need air control! At sea, the air control of the fleet depends entirely on aircraft carriers! However, can the two small aircraft carriers of our side, using Sea Harrier fighters, take on the task of guarding the fleet and seizing air control? From the Soviets' elimination of blacksmiths, we know that vertical take-off and landing fighters are useless!
Unfortunately, those guys in Congress don't consider the strength of the navy at all! They just focus on the budget, the budget! The navy has cut many projects, and even the Invincible-class aircraft carrier was almost cut by the congressmen! Do they like to kill their own army? Now, the army has to use such strength to cross tens of thousands of kilometers of ocean, run to the other side of the earth, and go to war with a continental country!

"Woodward, don't say such depressing words. We are fighting against Argentina, not the Soviet Union." Admiral John said, "We have the confidence and strength to win. Now, there is another good news. Most of the countries in South America support Argentina, but Chile has stood on our side without hesitation. Chile promised us that as long as the Argentine planes take off, they will be detected by Chile's air defense radar, and then they will notify our formation of the news so that we can take precautions."
There is still good news, and this is the good news!
Argentina considers itself the number one military power in South America, but its strength is far inferior to that of Britain. It will never become a world military power by purchasing military equipment!
For example, Argentina only received five Exocet missiles, which gave Britain the most headaches. France has refused to provide Argentina with the rest. In addition to the threat of these modern missiles to warships, the aircraft carrier formation of the United States does not have to worry about other things. Can it rely on planes to drop ordinary bombs? This World War II-era combat style cannot adapt to the rhythm of modern warfare at all!

"Before we capture the Falkland Islands, we should first capture other islands, such as Georgia Island in the south, so that we can obtain a stable ocean base." John continued: "Although we have come from afar, we will definitely win this victory!"

The city is now filled with a festive atmosphere, which has been spreading since Argentina sent troops to retake the Falkland Islands. Every Argentine is extremely excited.

The people were in high spirits, but in the presidential palace, Argentina's president, Galtieri, who ruled under military rule, was not in such a good mood.
"All Western countries have cut off their military exports to us. In particular, France, a non-NATO country, has actually stood with the British. The French shamelessly seized our Super Etendard fighter jets and Exocet missiles!"
In 1979, Argentina ordered 15 Exocet missiles and 14 Super Etendard attack aircraft from France. So far, Argentina has only received 5 missiles and 5 aircraft. Now, after Argentina seized the Falkland Islands by force, the French sided with the British and blocked the export of Exocet missiles and related technologies to Argentina.
This is the biggest headache for Argentina now. When it comes to attacking warships at sea, Exocet is the best weapon! But now, they can't get any more weapons at all! This is even more difficult for them to accept than the United States turning its back on them!

"Can we get it from a third country?" asked Galtieri.
"France strictly prohibits transfers through third countries. We went to Libya, Peru and other countries, but received no response." Just as the deputy finished speaking, Galtieri saw his most trusted subordinate, Navy Commander Hohei-Aranya, hurried over with an excited expression on his face: "General, we have found a new way to obtain more Exocet missiles!"
