Chapter 1038 Bombing
This sudden air battle on the first day of the Lunar New Year has become a hot military topic.
The burning Tu-22 bomber and the wreckage of the aircraft on the ground show the cruelty of this air battle.
The Indian army lost 1 Tu-22 bomber, 5 Su-25s, 2 MiG-25s, and 2 MiG-29s. One Su-27 was damaged but flew back to the airport.
The Nepalese army lost more than 20 aircraft.
This is because the Nepalese army has the advantage of air defense missiles and the number of military aircraft.
For this reason, Nepal held a special meeting.
"We need more 'Aegis' air defense missiles, and we need more advanced aircraft!" Nepal's Chief of Staff said firmly: "This time we smashed the Indian army's conspiracy, but what about next time?"
This time, the Indian Air Force formation raided Kathmandu, but it scared Nepal out of a cold sweat.
If it weren't for the friendly radar positions that discovered and informed them in advance, if there were not two sets of 'Aegis' air defense missile systems in Kathmandu, and emergency take-off, Kathmandu would have suffered heavy losses.
"We must retaliate against India, and we must not let it go!" The Nepalese Chief of Staff was very tough.
Ever since the occupation of the plains across the Ganges, the relationship between the two sides has been an unresolved hatred.
India cannot really give up the plains across the Ganges completely. It is an important grain-producing area. Relying solely on India's current grain production, a large number of people are in a state of hunger, and more than 100,000 people starve to death every year. The plains across the Ganges can at least allow India to feed 100 million more people.
Similarly, India took the lead in opening fire on the western front, and its strategic goal was to seize the Indus Plain. With the Indus Plain, India can at least feed 150 million more people.
There is also Khalistan, which is also a place with developed agriculture, a rich and fertile land, and the grain produced every year can feed hundreds of millions of people.
Nepal used to have a hard life, and even food could not be self-sufficient. It lived in poverty. After occupying the plains on the north bank of the Ganges, Nepal's life became comfortable.
And since it took sides, Nepal has abandoned Hinduism and chosen Buddhism as its state religion, which has a huge religious contradiction with India.
India's ancient caste system is also extremely disgusting to Nepal now. No Nepalese likes the caste system, unless they are upper-class people.
"Western Front, attack and launch ground operations!" The Chief of Staff of the Nepalese Army was very tough.
The Western Front is the only place where the Nepalese Army can launch ground operations. Although there are rivers there, the river is not wide. The terrain and geological conditions are relatively good, and tank troops can wade across the river.
Of course, it is also a place where the Indian Army has very tight defenses, and the Indian Army has stockpiled heavy troops there.
In the early morning, the Nepalese Air Force set off.
At each air base, planes took off, forming air formations and flying towards India.
In the early morning, the sky was not completely bright yet, and people were most tired and sleepy at this time.
2 Tu-16 bombers and 6 H-6 bombers were dispatched!
This time, the Nepalese Air Force fought a total of 8 cities, all of which were important cities in northern India.
"Boom~~Boom~~" Thunder sounded in the sky.
This is a sign that spring rain is coming.
Indian soldiers were standing guard listlessly, and the sleeping soldiers didn't care about the thunder.
Suddenly, a radar soldier was awakened by thunder and saw the red dot on the radar.
"Alarm! Alarm!" The radar soldier shouted and pulled the air defense alarm.
All of a sudden, the whole barracks was in chaos.
Many Indians ran out from their sleeping places in big shorts.
At this time, the J-7 fighter jets in the sky had arrived. There was an external attachment point under the fuselage of the J-7, which was equipped with a combined bomb rack; remember that there were 4 external attachment points, using PF-5/8D racks, which could be equipped with short-range infrared-guided air-to-air missiles, rocket launchers, and bombs!
In addition, the J-6s arrived at about the same time. At this time, these J-6s, in addition to rocket launchers and bombs, also carried two air-to-air missiles for air combat.
As for the J-8s, they were in the air, seizing air supremacy. The J-8s were all equipped with air-to-air missiles.
In addition, there was a J-8 escorting a H-6 bomber.
A J-7 pilot pushed the control stick, the nose of the plane dived down, and a bomb broke away from the rack and flew towards the ground.
"Boom!" The bomb fell on a building and exploded.
One after another, J-6 fighters and J-7 fighters flew from the sky, and countless bombs fell on the army camp.
The bombing officially began.
This was simply a massacre. The Indians woke up from their sleep and ran out in a panic. A bomb fell on their barracks, and the entire barracks were blown away. The Indian soldiers who were looking for their trousers were instantly blown into meat paste, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.
There were flames everywhere, and screams everywhere.
"Boom!" A bomb exploded in the arsenal of the camp, and the arsenal exploded immediately. The flames shot up into the sky, completely illuminating half of the sky.
This time, this air formation not only bombed this military camp, but also bombed a nearby air force base.
The anti-runway bombs carried by the J-7 fighter jets fell on the shells on the air force base. One by one, the anti-runway bombs destroyed the shells, making it impossible for the air force base to take off.
"Boom~~"
The anti-aircraft missile destroyed a J-6 fighter jet, but also exposed the anti-aircraft missile position.
"Boom~~" An air-to-ground missile fell from the JH-7 rack and quickly flew towards the anti-aircraft missile position.
Two JH-7s launched air-to-ground missiles, mainly to attack the anti-aircraft missile position and radar position.
"Boom boom boom~~"
One after another, the artillery shells fell, turning this air base into ruins.
All the planes parked here were blown up.
The planes that completed the combat mission, without bombs and missiles, returned.
And those with bombs and missiles continued the combat mission.
"Boom~~"
The power station was blown up, and the whole city lost its power supply at once.
After completing the combat mission, the planes and bombers returned.
As soon as they arrived at the Ganges, the Indian air reinforcements had caught up, and the Nepalese Air Force planes that came to meet them stopped the Indian planes, and the two sides launched a fierce air battle.
One plane after another exploded in the air, and one plane after another fell to the ground and exploded.
Some pilots were lucky enough to survive by parachuting, but some pilots did not even have the opportunity to parachute.
Air battles are not only taking place in this direction, but also in other directions.
In this wave of air strikes, India suffered heavy losses, with military camps bombed one after another, air bases destroyed one after another, and important military targets destroyed one after another.
This made the Indian army extremely angry. You know, more than a decade ago, Nepal was a concubine and slave in front of India. From the bottom of their hearts, Indians looked down on Nepal.
If it weren't for the local changes, Nepal might have been a state of India at this time!
As a result, they didn't expect that their younger brother would betray them and stab them in the back at a critical moment. Indians hate Nepal very much.
