Chapter 1147 Missile Attack and Defense
The Arab coalition has deployed 2 Aegis-1 air defense missile battalions and 4 Aegis-0 air defense missile battalions in Jordan and Syria, and 1 Aegis-1 air defense missile in Palestine. Battalion, 2 'Aegis-0' air defense missile battalions.
These anti-aircraft missile battalions are used to target Israel and intercept Israeli missiles and aircraft.
As for the deployed anti-aircraft machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, and rocket interception systems, there are even more!
This is also the sixth Middle East war. At most, Israel bombed Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, but failed to spill the war to Saudi Arabia, Egypt and other countries.
Many Israeli aircraft were shot down by anti-aircraft missiles.
This time, 12 of the 20 'Jericho-2' missiles were intercepted by the Albanian air defense missile battalion in that direction.
The original launch site for Scud missiles was empty and empty. The original launch vehicle had been moved four or five kilometers away.
"Boom, boom, boom~~" The 'Jericho-1' missiles landed one after another, hitting the desert sand with a loud sound.
At this time, the Iraqi Scud launch vehicle also stopped and began to deploy the launch site. Soldiers loaded the missiles and refueled them.
Today they will launch a total of 120 Scud missiles at Israel.
However, after adding fuel, it did not launch immediately. Instead, it carried out desert camouflage to avoid space satellite reconnaissance and aerial reconnaissance.
After two rounds of missile strikes, if missiles are launched again at this time, the effect that can be achieved will be greatly reduced.
The eight Jericho-2 missiles in the air were intercepted before they reached Baghdad after being intercepted by two Iraqi air defenses.
After dawn, Israel held a press conference. The Israeli spokesperson reprimanded Iraq for launching a missile attack on Israel, and then said harshly:
"Iraq launched a missile attack on Israel. This is a declaration of war against Israel. Great Israel will definitely fight back. Iraq will be responsible for all consequences!"
The Iraqi side also held a press conference, scolding Israel as a lackey of the United States and deserving of hell. The Jews have occupied Palestinian land. As long as the Jews do not leave the Palestinian land, they will be continuously attacked.
At the same time, Iraq reported that Israel had launched 50 Jericho-1 missiles and 20 Jericho-2 missiles towards Iraq, but they were all intercepted by air defense forces.
At this time, the coalition forces once again launched cruise missiles into Iraq and used thousands of aircraft to launch air strikes against Iraq.
Finally, at noon, it was the rush hour for everyone to get off work or go have lunch.
In the desert, the Iraqi missile force, which had been prepared for a long time, once again launched 30 Scud missiles towards Israel. The target of the attack was still Tel Aviv.
As soon as the launch was completed, he immediately maneuvered away.
The professionalism of the Iraqi missile force now is not comparable to what it was during the Iran-Iraq war. They already know how to conduct missile operations.
Tel Aviv, a shopping mall, many people come to the mall to eat after get off work.
This mall is the largest mall in Tel Aviv.
Suddenly, the air raid siren sounded in Tel Aviv.
People who were eating or preparing to eat hurriedly left to go to the underground air raid shelter.
People push people, people squeeze people.
Someone fell, and no one helped him, so he just stepped on him.
This is sometimes the case. The casualties caused by missile strikes are sometimes not even comparable to the horrific stampedes caused.
According to some public intellectuals, Europeans and Americans are of high quality. If something like this happens, the elderly, children, and pregnant women will go first, and everyone else will line up in an orderly manner.
However, this kind of thing only exists in the mouths of public intellectuals, but it does not exist in Europe and the United States, let alone Israel.
The former ‘little bully of the Middle East’ no longer exists.
Facing the Arab world, Israel actually seems very powerless, but it must choose a tough attitude and enlist its son to support it.
Israel has been very successful in trying to pull off the tiger's skin.
I can’t fight against the Arab world, but my son can!
Then someone who was running slowly saw a building hit by a missile.
"Boom~~" The missile hit the middle floor of the building, causing the upper floor to collapse and the glass to shatter.
"Boom~" In the air, a Scud was intercepted and exploded in the air.
This time, 4 of the 30 Scud missiles were intercepted, and the interception success rate is still around 13%.
The interception rate of a single missile is not high.
Continuous explosions sounded in Tel Aviv. Sometimes an office building was destroyed, sometimes a missile landed in a shopping mall and exploded. Some missiles fell on the streets, and some missiles fell on residential areas.
Precision guided missiles can hit military targets relatively accurately.
As for this kind of low-precision missile, whatever it hits is left to fate.
"Plane! Our plane! Take off and destroy the Iraqi missile forces!" Israeli Prime Minister Neta was furious.
The two rounds of missile attacks in the early morning have had a great impact on Israel and put it under tremendous pressure.
Many Israeli citizens are now filled with righteous indignation and demand that Israel launch a war against Iraq and attack Iraq.
He is summoning the US ambassador to Israel and is loudly criticizing the fact that the interception success rate of the Patriot missile defense system provided by the Americans is less than 15%, far from the 97% interception success rate advertised by the Americans, and wants to publish its actual combat interception success rate.
The US ambassador to Israel is unwilling to do so and is trying to appease Neta.
The Patriot air defense missile system is a huge investment by the United States. It is not only the most important part of the US national defense system, but also to be sold to its allies. If Israel tells everyone that the actual combat interception success rate of the Patriot air defense missile system is less than 15%, which ally will buy the Patriot air defense missile system?
Even the United States, the masters and citizens of the US Congress, will be furious.
You know, the military's purchase of more Patriot air defense missile systems is to tell the masters of Congress and the American people that the interception success rate of the Patriot air defense missile system can be as high as 97%. Everyone no longer needs to be afraid that missiles will land on the US mainland, and it can provide everyone with a safe environment.
Moreover, the Patriot air defense missile system involves so many interests and so many bigwigs!
Now the Iraqis have launched 30 Scud missiles again, but the interception success rate is still less than 15%, which makes Neta's heart, which was almost calmed down, filled with anger again.
God knows how many casualties and how much damage this wave of Scud missile attacks will cause.
Neta, who was furious, ignored the obstruction of the US ambassador to Israel and ordered the Air Force to send planes to blow up Iraq's missile launch bases. (End of this chapter)
