Lackluster Saudi Air Force
Chapter 684:Lackluster Saudi Air Force
At the beginning of the future technology group air show, Saudi Arabia finally couldn't help but shoot Yemen.
The reason is very simple, Saudi Arabia should take advantage of the Houthis to take advantage of the unstable position of the Houthis, to take a thunder blow, to the Houthis to give heavy damage.
The purchase of five generations of machines, no matter which country buys the fifth-generation machine of the future technology group, it takes a while to train and run in order to truly form a combat power.
Therefore, from the beginning, the purchase of fifth-generation machines was a little in keeping up with the attack on the Houthis.
Saudi Arabia, who was already ready, took ten of his best friends and aimed the Houthis.
In the early morning of the next day of the future technology group air show, the Saudi-dominated Arab coalition began a "decisive storm" air strike.
During the airstrike that night, the Saudi-dominated coalition dispatched dozens of fighter jets and carried out air strikes against the Houthis in Yemen.
A large number of Yemenis have been awakened from their sleep, many of the targets of the airstrikes have been targets in the city, and in the airstrikes, a Houthi weapons depot has been blown up, causing even more large explosions, causing the windows of houses around the city to crack.
The airstrikes lasted almost a night, and the Houthis suffered heavy losses.
However, such air strikes will inevitably bring accidental injury, whether it is Saudi Arabia's air force, which is only piled up with petrodollars, or even the United States, in such a large-scale urban airstrike, accidental injury is inevitable.
But at least the Americans’ misinects on civilians, and within a certain range of control and permission, will not be as much as the Saudi air strikes.
First, the night of the air strikes, Saudi Arabia and other countries' joint air force forces, although indeed to the Houthis to bring some losses, but the wrong damage to the civilian population more, many of the ground attack bombs and missiles, are falling in ordinary houses, or intelligence errors, attack ordinary houses.
In the airstrike, this error frequently appears, can be said to be no accident.
Strong national defense cannot be bought with money, not even in Saudi Arabia.
In the morning, many international media reported that the Saudi Air Force mistakenly bombed civilians.
At the same time, the Houthis continued to operate, not only completely capturing Sanaa, occupying the presidential palace, but also further controlling the surrounding cities.
The Saudi airstrikes didn’t seem to work at all.
The Saudi Air Force, which is built with petrodollars, is full of local pride, whether it is the technical level of weapons and equipment or the number of equipment, the Saudi Air Force's military strength is much stronger than most European air forces.
The Saudi Air Force has nearly 300 advanced third-generation fighters, hundreds of Apache helicopter gunships, and five watchtoem early warning aircraft, and its air force, although there are still some shortcomings, but it is also very powerful.
However, this powerful air force is still somewhat lackluster.
Modern air combat is a very complex form of combat, its prototype is the German flash attack during the Second World War.
At that time, thousands of aircraft swarmed at the same time, sweeping important facilities within hundreds of kilometers of the border, especially the airport, and then acting as flying heavy guns in close contact with the ground, pushing ground troops on the road to remove the targets on the road.
At the same time, tactical bombers will be used to carry out cover-up bombing against logistics facilities, communication facilities, transportation hubs in the area behind the enemy.
In the face of such highly coordinated air campaigns, even France, a large country with thousands of fighters, would inevitably lose, and even the Soviet air force, which was rare in radio, was difficult to confront.
This is not a simple German aircraft more problem, but the German has created the concept of "air offensive campaign", all aircraft are under unified command to coordinate the operation, which is far from the French World War I level of air defense organization can resist.
Of course, during the well-known Battle of Britain, Britain finally used radar and radio advantages for the first time, and with its unique geographical advantages, organized an air defense campaign that could be opposed to offensive air campaigns.
With the development of the times, to modern times, air campaigns have become far more complex than the year, but the basic concepts are still the same as those of the year, and the key problem is synergy.
The battlefield information obtained from various channels must be gathered in some way to the headquarters, through the analysis and judgment of the commander, and then combine the flight force situation, location, weapons and equipment situation, logistics and other factors in the hands, to form a campaign determination, and then refined by the staff to the combat plan, and finally to each participating in the air strike to develop a good combat plan.
The "power multiplier" of modern air campaigns is a variety of special-purpose aircraft, which bear the heavy responsibility of air command and intelligence collection.
When the war has not yet burned, in fact, the war has begun, and various multi-purpose aircraft have collected all the intelligence information of the target, command the combat aircraft into the battlefield, hit high-value targets, and make the enemy lose more combat power in the first time as much as possible.
Although the Saudi air force fighters are hanging "sniper" aimed at the pod, can clearly identify the landmark building, found the so-called suspicious target, but for the suspicious target no way to further identify, there is no perfect intelligence support, can only be a shell down.
Compared with the air strikes carried out by the United States at the outbreak of the Iraq war, every air strike against the Iraqi army was fatal.
That is because when the U.S. Air Force is in action, there are satellites and drones in the sky, and there are a large number of reconnaissance teams on the ground, and the air strikes are naturally fatal.
In fact, Saudi Arabia also wants to get the intelligence support and practical action support of the Americans, whether it is drones, satellites and tankers, but the United States is ambiguous about it.
Just experienced the game with the future of science and technology group because of the Saudi Arabia, so that the United States suddenly cautious, and Saudi Arabia rushed to the future science and technology group to buy five generations of machines, resulting in the imbalance in the situation in the Middle East.
Therefore, the United States now prefers to hope that Saudi Arabia is better dragged into the quagmire of war in Yemen, and that Saudi air strikes will eventually lead to the useless consumption of ammunition, which needs to be replenished from the United States.
Simply put, the United States wants you to find more things to do in Yemen, preferably for several years, to reduce the pressure on Israel.
