Chapter 1459 (1/2)
On the evening of February 17.
Half an hour after star ring trade announced its involvement in the Colombian war, the first to arrive at the battlefield was a strategic EMP intercontinental missile. The dazzling spark in the air only flickers for a moment, the city with bright lights falls into darkness.
With the port of barranquila, the capital of northern Colombia, as the center, it has been hit by EMP for hundreds of miles. Countless control systems of power stations and substations have been destroyed, and all public facilities such as houses, hospitals and police stations have been paralyzed.
Also hit by EMP are NATO military bases stationed near Barranquilla.
However, different from civilian facilities, the impact on military facilities is not ideal.
There was no panic. After a brief two-hour blackout, the NATO military base in Barranquilla was quickly restored to power. Engineers regularly repair the damaged electronic equipment, remove the faults, and replace the damaged parts with new parts.
If the last strategic EMP strike made the damage rate of electronic equipment of NATO coalition forces reach 90%, then this time it may be less than 13-15%.
For such a situation, star ring trade had long been expected, and Jiang Chen did not expect NATO to be really stupid enough to fall twice on the same trick.
The extraordinary effect of the last civil war in Colombia was entirely due to the fact that NATO had never encountered such a weapon and was caught off guard. This time, NATO coalition forces have used retired equipment such as old communication radio stations, and the damage effect of EMP on analog circuits is far less obvious than that on digital circuits. On the other hand, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon Co have provided solutions for the The Pentagon, such as ”Faraday spray” and so on, which obviously played a certain role.
However, the NATO coalition forces soon found that they could never catch up with the R & D speed of the star ring trade
Just an hour after the EMP strike, radar at Barranquilla military base had returned to normal. The senior officers of the military base gathered in the command room and gathered around a map to discuss the operational plan.
In less than a day, they have successfully won the 744 highlands and advanced 50 kilometers towards Bucaramanga, a strategic town in southern Colombia. As long as Bucaramanga is captured, the entire northern tip of the Andes will return to their control, and the border supply line between South Colombia and Venezuela will be completely cut off.
At this moment, however, black dots suddenly appeared on the radar screen.
”Enemy flying units approaching! Two hundred twenty, suspected ground attack missiles! ” Sitting in front of the computer, the observer wearing headphones immediately reported to the commander behind him.
With Eagle like eyes narrowed, the Americans with general's caps staring at the red dots approaching the military base on the big screen, and ordered in a deep voice, ”launch slamraam surface to air air air defense missile for interception!”
”Yes
……
At the gate of the military base, the NATO soldiers standing guard raised their heads and looked at the flickering light not far away.
”What is that?”
”Plane?” Asked another soldier.
”Where are there so many planes?”
Roughly speaking, there are about a hundred of them, probably black technology weapons of star ring trade.
What is puzzling, however, is that since they choose to ”sneak attack” at night, the engine's tail flame is a bit too blatant. Or did they not plan to hide from the beginning? But this is also too much to look down on the NATO air defense system.
Even the aurora-20, who dares to fly in the face like this, will be killed by surface to air missiles and antiaircraft guns.
As if to confirm the NATO soldier's conjecture, a surface to air missile launched from the center of the military base, and sped away in the direction of the bright spots. Not surprisingly, the missiles hit the target one after another.
A group of firelight exploded in the air, and the smoke of the explosion became a piece in the night sky. Looking at the fire that exploded in the distance, the soldiers standing beside the sentry pressed down the muzzle of their guns, drew out their telescopes from their chests, and looked at the airspace where the explosion happened. They could not help but exclaimed.
”Shepard It's really spectacular. ”
At this moment, however, the soldier's face suddenly changed.
His comrades in arms standing beside him did not notice that his face was not right. He just looked at the smoke screen of the explosion and asked casually.
