In the Port of Abadan in Iraq, several oil tankers have also set sail. An anti-ship missile from Iran in the Strait of Hormuz made the oil tankers from Abadan dare not set sail easily. The captains waited for a few days and finally received a notice that a fleet would escort them. They needed to reach the Dhahran waters in western Saudi Arabia, meet with the formation waiting there, and leave the Persian Gulf together. When sailing, try to sail as close to the Saudi coastline and try not to be within 100 kilometers of the Iranian coastline.

One of the tankers, Tam, also slowly sailed out of the harbor. However, unlike several other tankers, his ship was loaded with a full 10,000 tons of refined oil, and also carried a group of special guests: more than twenty Iraqi armed personnel.

They are the Rattlesnake Special Forces that are famous in the war!

Although sending special forces directly into the southeast of Iran would take great risks, Kusai agreed after careful consideration.

Because they have obtained the exact information that the Iranians only obtained twenty anti-ship missiles and four sets of launch equipment, so they only need to kill these four sets of launch equipment, and the threat from the Iranians will disappear.

Instead of risking the straits tremblingly, it is better to take the initiative to attack and kill the opponent's missile launching equipment! After careful study and determination of the launching positions that Iran may have arranged, Kusai finally agreed to the special forces' operation: destroying the Iranian missile launching equipment!

However, the only regret is that because at this distance, they cannot receive support from the air force, the special forces' laser illumination was easily turned into an explosion of the equipment they carried, so they carried anti-tank missiles, bazooka and other equipment.

This distance has exceeded the range of helicopters that special forces often take, so they had to use the second method to take an oil tanker, and when they approached the Strait of Hormuz, they took the rubber boat they carried and quietly rode to the Holmzgan Province.

At the same time, when appropriate, the Iraqi Air Force will also take off the Tu-22 bomber for support if necessary. However, since such bombers cannot carry precise guidance weapons, the bombing effect on the ground will not be very good.

The Saudi government is unwilling to have a conflict with Iran directly. Otherwise, with the help of Saudi air base, the Iraqi air force will have a full opportunity to carry out precise bombing under the guidance of ground personnel. Therefore, Kusai did not open an address for this borrowed air base and Saudi Arabia, but when it is really needed, his air force took off from Iraq's airport. After the bombing is completed, there will be insufficient fuel. At that time, urgently borrowed Saudi air base to land. Is this always OK?

Kusai has made a plan in his mind. At the same time, he also hopes that the escort formation can complete the task and his set of interference equipment can play a role. Otherwise, outside the bay, the forces of various major powers are watching here, the United States, the Soviet Union, and even the British navy that just finished the war last year!

The captain of this tanker has a close relationship with the Iraqi government. Therefore, after the government made this request, the captain readily agreed.

This kind of thing Iran did aroused the disgust of all countries, especially these crew members who relied on the sea to make a living.

Looking at the white clouds in the sky and the endless sea in the distance, the special forces team knew that their mission this time was very difficult... Since the last time the missile was launched, the missile troops have moved to a new launch position, but in the following days, they have fallen into a state of nothing to do.

Although the final battle report showed that they attacked the wrong target and were not Iraqi tankers but Kuwait's, their superiors did not make any harsh criticisms, but just asked them to continue attacking.

Unexpectedly, since the missile was fired, the Persian Gulf immediately became quiet, there was nothing on the sea, and no tankers from various countries in the Gulf dared to appear.

This made them feel complacent, and they only launched one missile, which completely blocked this important route. Compared with the retreat on the Western Front, their victory came too easily.

The great spiritual leaders also personally praised them for their great contributions to the Islamic revolution in Iran and inspired morale on the entire front, hoping that they would continue to work hard and continue to attack more ships.

In addition to their missile forces, because the number of missiles imported from the country is not large, in order to achieve better results, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards have become many squads, and they are training to ride speedboats and use rocket launchers to attack those cargo ships.

After a few days of waiting, news finally came from the above: the Gulf countries have set up an escort fleet, and their tankers will arrive in one day!

Thinking of the steamships loaded with oil, the soldiers of the missile forces were excited and began to prepare before launch.

………

Although the first batch of ships determined for the first time were only thirty tankers, when the formation finally assembled in Dhahland, the formation's ships became forty-five. Escorting such a huge fleet was a very big test for the peninsula defense forces that had been escorted for the first time and were hurriedly established.

On the Aibuha, the commander of the escort formation, Saudi Rear Admiral Taral Muvdi, was full of confidence. As a senior Saudi naval officer who returned from the US Navy, he was eager to have the opportunity to make achievements. However, he had never had the opportunity. Saudi Arabia had a very good relationship with the surrounding Arab countries. Although Saudi Arabia was not in line with Iran, the territory of both sides did not directly border. Therefore, in the war against Iran's export revolution, Saudi Arabia only provided some funds, and few Saudi soldiers could go to the battlefield.

We want to prove to the people in the world that the Saudi army is definitely not an army that has lost its combat effectiveness in the oil dollar. We have the ability to defend our country and complete any tasks assigned by the king!

Iran has anti-ship missiles, but they all know that the missile was developed from China's imitation of the Styx missiles made in the Soviet Union in the 1950s. The electronic equipment also uses electronic tubes, which are very backward. Although it is huge in size, it successfully sank an oil tanker in the last attack. However, for the Aibuha, which has the Sea Strokesnake air defense missile, the anti-ship missile that finally flew at a height of about 100 meters was not threatened at all.

The Sea Rattlesnake missile was improved from land-based surface-to-air missiles. It is small in size, advanced in performance and has high development potential. The French Navy began to develop multiple models of new surface combat ships in the early 1970s. Most of them do not need to undertake regional air defense tasks, but they need to be equipped with short-range air defense missiles with advanced performance for self-defense air defense.

Under this demand, they chose this kind of air defense missile.

The "Sea Rattlesnake" meets the requirements of the French Navy in terms of volume, weight, performance and technical maturity. It can also meet the requirements of ship-based air defense in terms of system composition and guidance methods, because they have already mass-produced the "Rattlesnake", so they also have advantages in production costs.

Therefore, in 1973, the French Navy decided to improve the mature land-use rattlesnake 2000 into a ship-based type, maintaining the basic structure and guidance method of the land-use "rattlesnake", and comprehensively utilize the detection devices on the ship and adding a reserve bullet reservoir with automatic loading mechanism.

A famous weapon, the Sea Rattlesnake, was born.

In 1974, Thomson Company was selected as the general contractor and signed the first contract to start engineering development. At the end of 1977, the first launch device was delivered and shipped to test. The performance appraisal was completed in 1979 and officially entered service in 1980. It was called the 8b type.

At the same time, France and Saudi Arabia signed contracts for these frigates, hoping to upgrade to the 8s type. This 8s type increases the anti-missile capability based on the 8b type.

In later generations, this missile was installed on the Aibuha in 1984. However, in the 1982 War of the Cabernets, the huge power of the anti-ship missile made the French who developed the Feiyu missile feel a real threat. Therefore, this missile accelerated its development and finally completed its development at the end of 1982. It was installed on the Aibuha in early 1983 and joined the Saudi Navy's sequence. However, the Saudi Navy operated this warship in less than three months. This missile only conducted a test-fire and hit a target aircraft.

Standing on the bridge and looking at the old Badel in front of him, especially the antennas that appeared after the transformation in the rear, Major General Jarral found it very funny. He learned the Israeli war examples when he was studying in the United States. They successfully got rid of the Styx missiles by relying on electronic interference, hoping that this new thing coming from Iraq would not disappoint them.

"Report that all forty-five ships have been assembled, but two of them have a speed of only fourteen knots," said a senior mate.

"Order formation~~

-Update~~, Sidick-class missile boats are in front, Aibuha is followed, and then the steamship formation is followed, Badir and Sambuk are at the end, Ahmed and Barzan are patrolling left and right formations, with each ship being 0.5 nautical miles apart, and the speed is 14 knots." Major General Talar said.

If it is safer, it is more suitable to be separated by one nautical mile. However, for more than forty ships, it is more than forty nautical miles. The formation is too long, so he had to let the formation get closer, because the Persian Gulf is calm and as long as the course and speed are strictly followed, there will be no collision.

On the Badr, Iraqi technicians wearing Saudi naval uniforms also began to be nervous and busy.

Since then, the interference equipment has made greater progress this time than last time. It can interfere with designated areas in a direction and reserve multiple channels to prevent interference from interfering with one's own equipment. It is no longer a distinction between enemies and us. (To be continued... rq
