When the sun rises from the sea, Bos Bay becomes lively again, and the minesweeping formation starts a new minesweep again. Today, a one-way passage for ships can be opened. Then, when mines are sweeping back from outside, a safe channel for two-way navigation can be opened.~~

No one knew that the battle that had been fought last night, the Iranian mine-burning boat that was hit had disappeared, and only some wreckage was left on the sea.

The sun shone on the sea, spreading the golden light throughout the Bay. On an Iraqi oil tanker, three medium-sized helicopters were parked there quietly. On the deck next to the helicopter, some people were lying lazily on the deck, looking at the white clouds in the sky.

"I was so unlucky last night. I patrolled for four hours and found no news. Why didn't I catch up with the Iranian mine operation? What was the feeling of launching a shè missile?" said a pilot lying on the ground.

Last night, there was only the second helicopter carrying out a cruise mission. It fired a missile and hit an Iranian minecraft boat. Another ship fled back, but it entered a minefield and suffered casualties. Next, no Iranian minecraft boat was found again.

This made the pilots of the third helicopter very depressed. They took off the last time and cruised until dawn, and saw nothing. They felt very unhappy without the Iranians coming to get them to wipe out.

"I didn't feel anything. Fortunately, I closed my eyes when I was squirting, otherwise I would have been blind for a few seconds." The pilot said.

In the dark night, people's pupils will dilate, and wearing a night vision device will affect the dense instruments in the cabin. The light of the missile is too strong, so when launching the missile, the pilot closed his eyes in time.

"Okay, it's time for us to leave." Seeing that the tankers had entered the Strait of Hormuz, they needed to fly to the nearest base on the island of Oman, refuel and inspect the plane.

Although he did not agree to the request of the Iraqi Excellency Kusai to establish a large radar station on the island, Oman also made concessions, allowing Iraq to cruise the Strait of Hormuz and conduct air patrols with the Oman Peninsula as a base. This is after all, for the safety of the Strait of Hormuz.

Oman's regression has already touched other Arab countries, because Oman does not need to use the Strait of Hormuz, and its coastline is on the Arabian Sea outside. Oman does this entirely for the benefit of other coastal countries along the entire Bos Gulf.

Therefore, although Kusai was rejected, he was not at all unhappy. Several helicopters were stationed there and they began to deploy military force. Oman refused. At worst, he would take it from Iran in the future.

In Baghdad, Kusai has been paying attention to the situation in the Bos Gulf. Whether it can crush the Iranian mine war is the most important at this stage.

With the victory of the land war, the Iraqis were full of optimism, believing that Iran would not last long and the Khomeini regime would collapse soon. However, the Iranians blocked the Strait of Hormuz, which caused great passivity to the entire Bos Gulf coast countries. Therefore, we must also gain the initiative at sea so that Iraq can completely control all the initiative.

"His Excellency Kusai, Prince Sultan called," said a secretary.

Because of the cooperation between the two sides in the Strait of Hormuz, Prince Sultan often contacts Kusai, and even comes in person when encountering important things.

"Click it in for me," said Kusai.

When I picked up the phone, Prince Sultan's hearty laughter came from inside: "Kusai, Iraq has helped me with the removal of Iranian mines this time. Now, our waterways have been opened, and the first batch of cargo ships have now sailed out of the Strait of Hormuz and entered the Arabian Sea."

No wonder he was so happy, Kusai said: "We are all Gulf countries, and these aspects are what we should do. We are Arab brothers, and Iraq is very willing to serve the countries around us."

Hearing Kusai's answer, Prince Sultan said: "Iraq has made great efforts this time. We will discuss it at the Arab League meeting and continue to provide a batch of funds to help Iraq's just cause."

When Iraq was fighting so tense on land war, it also distributed some force to carry out maritime escorts. And doing so, the Gulf countries are very rich, so it is normal to give Iraq some funds.

"Thank you, Your Highness," said Kusai. "However, we are only temporarily in response to emergency situations. We are prone to detect Iranians during the day, but at night, Iranians will dispatch small boats to rearrange mines at any time. Our super hornet helicopter can only solve the recent situation. If it is used like this for a long time, it may not work."

Helicopters all have service life. If they fly every night, it is definitely of super-strong. The body will reach its service life in a few years. It is not that Iraq is stingy, but that this is not a complete solution.

"We need an early warning machine that can stay empty for a long time and monitor the entire Strait of Hormuz and even the entire Bos Bay." Kusai suddenly said this.

Early warning aircraft! This is something Kusai has always wanted. The C3i system of the Southern Military Region has developed, but it lacks this important air node.

Speaking of early warning aircraft, Prince Sultan said: "Our Saudi early warning aircraft is already urging the United States to make goods, but the United States has been delaying."

Saudi Arabia's early warning aircraft! Kusai asked suddenly: "Is it the American e-3 early warning aircraft?"

Kusai has already remembered that in history, the Saudi Air Force ordered 5 e-3a and 6 ke-3 refueling machines (e-3 refueling models) from the United States in 1981, as well as accessories, training and logistics equipment, until 1987, the payment was completed.

It is only 1983, and the United States has not paid the first early warning aircraft.

The e-3 early warning aircraft is such a good thing! Kusai is already drooling.

The e-3 Wanglou air alert and control system is based on the Boyin 707-320b civil aviation aircraft, replaced the engine, installed a rotating radome and electronic equipment.

With the help of the strong electronic capabilities of the United States, using pulse Doppler radar with downsight capabilities as the core, the airborne electronic equipment subsystems are combined into a whole through the control of the airborne computer.

When the e-3 is on duty cruise at an altitude of 8850 meters, it can effectively detect radii in different radar working methods: 667 kilometers of large high-altitude targets; 445 kilometers of medium-sized targets; 324 kilometers of small low-altitude targets. The deployment of the existing land and navy can be obtained through the transponders on ships and vehicles, and the complete land, navy, and air force situations can be displayed to the air commander in order to command the existing air forces to complete various air combat tasks such as interception, fighting, ground/sea support, interruption, air transport, air refueling and air rescue. The target processing capacity of the system is large, with strong anti-interference ability. It can handle 600 different targets at the same time and guide tracking and control of 100 targets.

Moreover, with the help of a rotating unit, the e-3 can have a cruise time of ten hours and can also be extended by refueling in the air.

This large-scale early warning aircraft has far exceeded that of the US Navy's e-2 early warning aircraft.

Early warning aircraft is definitely a force multiplier for future wars!

"Yes, we Saudi Arabia bought five aircraft in total, each of which was nearly $300 million." Prince Sultan said: "And, we always delay the goods."

Kusai wanted to impulsively say whether he could give the Iraqi Air Force a uniform, but he knew that this was absolutely impossible.

The United States will definitely have very strict approvals for advanced technology such as early warning aircraft, and it is absolutely prohibited from transferring third countries. No matter how good the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Iraq is, it will not work. Moreover, the United States will never export it to Iraq, let alone export the technology to Iraq. In the future, if there is an accident, Americans will stop selling parts, and they will still turn into a pile of scrap iron like the powerful Tomcat fighter of the Iranians.

"Then we can only hope that the United States will make goods as soon as possible." Kusai said. The Saudi government has a very close relationship with the United States, so we urged the American government to pay such early warning aircraft as soon as possible to undertake the task of air alert. Before that, the super bumblebee can only be led by the first.

"Long live Allah, we will surely protect the shipping safety of the Strait of Hormuz." Prince Sultan said.

Putting down the phone, Kusai stopped envious. The Americans were blocked outside and could not enter the Strait of Hormuz. How could it be so easy to provide early warning aircraft to Saudi Arabia? They will definitely continue to delay the goods.

So, if you want to protect the safety of the Strait of Hormuz, before the Saudi early warning plane arrives, you can only exhaust your Super Hornet pilots?

Absolutely not possible, you have to think of other methods!

A flash of inspiration in my mind, and Kusai had a new idea.

The Iranians wanted to use the help of bridging to create dangers artificially, so that passing ships could not sail safely, and achieve the goal of blocking the Strait of Hormuz.

Then, by his own way, he returned to the other person and set a mine on the side of the northern coast of the Strait of Hormuz near the Iranian coastline, making it impossible for the Iranian speedboats to be dispatched at all!

Use mines to block the Iranians! Khomeini, don’t think that you are the only one who can play ruthlessly. Now that you have done such an extraordinary thing, don’t blame me for taking ruthlessness.

Kusai made up his mind and picked up the phone: "Let the Navy commander come to my office."
