The Iraqi Air Force fleet landed at the Dhahran Air Base did not return all after refueling, but left behind the 11th Fighter Squadron and the 115th Fighter Squadron to prepare for an upcoming exercise in the Gulf of Oman.

During the exercise, it is very legitimate to use the Saudi air base, because the Iraqi Air Force fighter jets are relatively short-legged and it is difficult to fly to the Gulf of Oman outside...

At the same time, the C801 anti-ship missile and Maverick missile were transported from China, and the tests were also started and mounted on the fighter plane.

Because the goal of this exercise is to jointly sea and air, protect the safety of maritime transportation lines, and at the same time, to combat possible air and sea threats.

Among them, the strikes on the air were handed over to the Saudi Air Force's F15 fighter jets, while attacks on maritime threats were carried out by the Phantom F1 and F20 fighter jets.

As the Phantom 4000 gradually equips the Iraqi Air Force, they finally have a heavy air combat fighter, and the Phantom F1 and F20 will undertake more of the mission of land-to-sea strikes.

The exercise area is selected in the Gulf of Oman, which is also meaningful. The Gulf of Oman is outside the Persian Gulf, close to the Arabian Sea. The exercise here is to tell the world: This is the Arab world!

When Prince Sultan reported that a joint exercise was to be conducted, King Fahd agreed without hesitation, and also contacted Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman countries to conduct this exercise together.

The exercise was set up when the escort formation was escorting ships, and was attacked by speedboats from the enemy's coastline. The escort formation immediately used ship-based weapons to attack these small boats. The soldiers on the escort ships also began to use weapons to shoot the small boats. At the same time, the Air Force immediately dispatched to attack these small boats using calf missiles. At this time, the war escalated, and large warships appeared on the enemy to participate in the war. The Air Force used the C801 anti-ship missile to attack, and the enemy dispatched fighter jets. The Air Force's fighter jets also intercepted.

The ships involved are mainly the escort formation of the Peninsula Defense Force organized by Saudi Arabia, as well as Iraq's special forces boarding merchant ships, as well as Saudi and Iraq's air force, and two fighter jets from the Omani Air Force.

After the Iraqi Air Force successfully bombed the anti-ship missile launch positions and various islands in Iran's Strait of Hormuz, Iran's activities were significantly weakened, and the escort formation carried out several successful escorts, and the fear of merchant ships began to drop significantly.1(1)

At this time, it is very meaningful to hold another exercise.

At the same time, this also explains a truth to the world: Arabs, as long as they unite, can handle affairs on the Arabian Peninsula alone without interference from outside forces!

The commander-in-chief of the exercise is Major General Talar, the commander-in-chief of the formation.

The exercise officially began on May 25th.

The Gulf of Oman is calm.

On the Aibuha, the air-to-sea search radar was constantly spinning, searching for everything around him vigilantly.

The dolphin helicopter on the Aibuha has also taken off and used its onboard sea search radar to look for possible threatening targets.

Next to the ships are several 10,000-ton tankers and cargo ships, which are sailing smoothly, just like normal sailing.

Suddenly, several speedboats of dozens of tons appeared on the sea in the distance, coming quickly.

These speedboats were immediately discovered by the dolphin helicopter that was surveillance at the sea. At the same time, the location of the speedboat was also transmitted back to the Aibuha.

"Note that there is a suspicious target on the right. Stay alert at any time." Major General Talar gave the order.

Two "Sidik"-class missile boats quickly emerged from the formation and moved towards the direction of the speedboat.

When the speedboats saw that the formation was prepared, they immediately dispersed and advanced to both sides.

The missile boat followed the two speedboats and started firing with the small caliber guns on the bow.

At the same time, several other speedboats were also continuing to approach the formation. Finally, two speedboats approached the slowest oil tanker.

At this time, several people's heads suddenly appeared from the tanker. One of the thick men was carrying something on his shoulder. After firing it, the thing immediately ignited the fire and flew over.

Suddenly, the remote-controlled speedboat turned into a fire.

Hades looked at the speedboat below. I don’t know who came up with this kind of exercise. It’s so boring!

Moreover, this kind of escort mission is really boring. Except for the passionate actions on the first day, there is no change in the rest.

However, Hades had to accept this reality: the great Lord Kusai said that he wanted to set up a Marine Corps and let him be the captain. It is said that he would add hundreds of people to him in the early stage and let him take on the escort task of following the merchant ship.

Hades was very dissatisfied, but he knew that it was best to accept His Excellency Kusai's orders, because anything that His Excellency Kusai did had profound significance.

It’s so boring to think of the navy with only a few broken boats, and the Marines are still doing this kind of training here!

Hades envied the days when he came to Rattlesnake Special Forces before.

At the same time, the sound of fighter planes roared through the sky, which was the air force that was coming to reinforce.

The Maverick is an air-opposite weapon. In addition to being commonly used to attack tanks, armored vehicles, missile launch sites, artillery positions, etc., it can also attack surface targets such as sea ships.

Because the Mavericks have a short range and are weak in power, it is a bit difficult to strike targets above frigates, but it is just right to strike targets like speedboats.

The only drawback is that the Maverick missile is too expensive. Using this precise guided weapon to strike those speedboats that are not very valuable is a bit like killing chickens.

However, if those speedboats sank an oil tanker, the cost would be high.

Therefore, the greatest "advantage" of war is that it can quickly devour human wealth. War is a war of attrition for both sides of the war.

Hamad turned on the Mavericks' TV aiming head, aimed at a speedboat that was about to escape, and then pressed the launch button.

A few seconds later, a picture of being hit and caught fire appeared on the multi-function display under the cockpit.

Complete the task! Hamad felt relieved.

The formation of Phoebeer's Phantom F1 behind is not so easy. The ones they carry are all C801 anti-ship missiles produced by Iraq!

Moreover, they are also carrying special tasks on this trip.

In the southeast of Iran, there is also a large port, Chah Bahar Port, which is also an important naval base in Iran. Several Iranian ships are staying in it, including two Bapur-class and one Bayando-class, and a large supply ship.

When the ship attacks were in full swing here, when Saudi Arabia and other countries had already sent navies to escort, these large Iranian warships did not dispatch.

I don’t know if it is because those ships cannot be started because of lack of parts, or because the Iranian Navy knows that if they sail like this without air supremacy, they will be easily destroyed by Iraqi fighter jets, and I don’t know if it is because the Iranian Navy knows that it is better to attack civilian ships or to conduct concealment. In the narrow Strait of Hormuz, small boats are enough, and large warships are not required.

In short, these warships are still parked at the port of Chahbahar. Since they are parked, then Kusai will never let them go!

Kill these Iranian warships!

Therefore, although this vigorous exercise is to train the coordinated combat capabilities of both sides, when encountering an Iranian attack again, you can have a quick response. You are also building a plank road openly and secretly visiting Chencang, attacking the Iranian port!

Because, if the fighter planes fly to such a long distance in normal times, it will definitely arouse the alertness of the Iranians. Those two Babul-class ship-to-air missiles that do not know whether they can continue to sail have standard **1mr ship-to-air missiles, as long as the other party gets early warning and starts the radar in advance, they can launch missiles and shoot down anti-ship missiles launched by their own side.

So, it must be done in secret.

Those who know the real mission of the anti-ship missiles mounted on Phantom F1 are only Major General Talar. When receiving this notice, Talar admires His Excellency Kusai's plan and strives for the greatest benefit in every incident. His Excellency Kusai is the master who has never suffered losses.

After crossing the air above the exercise formation, Phoebe's 11th fighter squadron continued to fly eastward, getting closer and closer to the target of the attack.

Phoebeer felt that the two anti-ship missiles under the wings seemed to have vitality, waiting for the arrival of the final firing moment.

Although the C801 missile is being promoted to the outside world, Phoebeer knows that in fact, this is not the C801 missile, but a modified anti-ship missile that uses the Red Bird 2 missile body.

This missile has the same range as the Red Bird 2, but not 20 kilometers, but 120 kilometers. It uses a small turbojet engine imported from China, rather than an engine imported from Europe.

Because the Phantom F1's radar cannot guide such an anti-ship missile at such a long distance. If it is a cruise missile, it will use terrain matching guidance. The aircraft only needs to launch, regardless of providing guidance data.

Air-to-ship missiles require the fighter's radar to provide all the data required for launch.

Phantom f1 dropped its height, and although there was no Iranian warning radar along the coast, they were still cautiously flying towards the target.

As long as you fly to a distance of 100 kilometers, you can launch missiles! (To be continued...)
