Romanian Eagle - Chapter 782

“Woo, woo, woo…”

The loud air defense sirens sounded, causing Thrall to roll off the bed. While turning over the bed, he also patted Lomon, a friend and comrade-in-arms who slept in the bed next door. “Get up quickly, Lomon, the Romanian plane is coming again.”

Lomon, who was awakened by the tweeter and friends, couldn’t help but complain. “These **** Romanian airplanes have been more than ten days old. Come here so early every day, can the masters of Paris come and see what kind of life we ​​are living.”

Although Luo Meng was swearing in his mouth, his movements did not fall at all, and he put on his military uniform in less than a minute. This is the speed that has been tempered. Since the air raid appeared in Beirut, his dressing speed has become faster and faster. It is estimated that after waiting for a while, he might be able to solve the dressing problem in 30 seconds.

“You **** are all right, come and assemble quickly.”

The roar of Sergeant Deka, the squad leader, appeared outside the door, causing the two of them to rush out quickly, and he couldn’t care if there were two buttons on Lomon’s shirt.

This is an ordinary Arabian-style small courtyard with four or five rooms. The family has fled to the country because they avoided the coming war. The house was requisitioned by the Beirut authorities because it was close to an air defense position established. Together with the expropriation, there were more than a dozen houses, and the owners of them were also relocated by the French army to other places.

In the yard, there are people who are faster than the two of them. It seems that there are not a few people who are trained by the Romanian Air Force. The two of them hurriedly lined up, and within two minutes of the line, everyone was there, and the last one who came out was kicked by the sergeant.

“Now, let’s set off.”

Following Sergeant Deca’s order, they immediately lined up and rushed to the position.

That’s right, they are Beirut’s air defense forces, taking on the task of defending the airspace. It’s just that there is always some helplessness in reality. Without the support of air planes, ground air defense alone has a much lower effect on incoming planes.

But the current situation is that the British and French air power is mainly dealing with Germany and Italy, but facing the weakest Romanian air force.

At present, Romania has urgently expanded four airports on the island of Cyprus. In addition, it has also built five new airports and deployed more than 900 aircraft. Facing the Romanian air force attack, the French air force in the Middle East has been exhausted.

Although Britain still has a lot of planes, it needs to defend Egypt and the Suez Canal, and the air force it can support is not enough. Basically, it takes only a few days to send an air force to contain it. This is all an action to deal with the situation, so that the Romanian Air Force on the island of Cyprus should not be too arrogant.

In fact, the British and French air forces have not thought about carrying out air strikes on the island of Cyprus, sneaking attacks on Romania’s aviation power, and solving the imbalance of air power, but there is no chance at all. The reconnaissance planes and the surrounding warships allowed airstrikes from any direction to be detected. In addition, Britain and France organized a night attack, and the effect was very bad. In the face of the combination of searchlights, antiaircraft artillery, radar, and night combat aircraft, they were also stunned. Return.

I need to say here that Romania’s newly developed small radar can already be used. Although this small radar is 20 to 30 meters high compared to the shore-based radar, 10 meters high is already a big improvement, and the equipment is also much smaller. It is more convenient to deploy.

Since the island of Cyprus has nothing to do, Britain and France can only do air defense work honestly.

The company where Salsay is located is one of the anti-aircraft forces. They operate the Oerlikon 20mm anti-aircraft cannon and are responsible for protecting the 100mm large-caliber anti-aircraft gun deployed on the side high ground. This anti-aircraft gun is the most powerful anti-aircraft weapon of the French army in Beirut, and its maximum rate of fire can reach 8 rounds per minute.

This air defense weapon deployed 18 doors in Beirut and was organized into three companies. Other air defense weapons mainly rely on their deployment in the surrounding area to play a protective role.

Yes, this is also a common air defense deployment in various countries, with medium and large caliber anti-aircraft guns as the main force, and small and medium caliber anti-aircraft guns can only assist. Moreover, the main purpose of large-scale air defense firepower is not to shoot down many aircraft, but to disrupt its formation and reduce the losses suffered by bombing. They are all pre-estimating the route, and then waiting for the plane to collide.

Therefore, in the face of the black and heavy Romanian aircraft group, the ground air defense firepower is even more fierce, especially the medium and large caliber artillery is its main force.

The continuous violent barrage at an altitude of seven or eight kilometers prevented the fleet from maintaining such a flight mode. I saw the large group of planes dispersed immediately, among which the twin-engine bombers were preparing to carry out horizontal bombing. The dive bombers also began to select targets. As for the escorting fighters, they are also looking for opportunities to launch attacks on these anti-aircraft guns.

“Pay attention to the enemy’s dive bombers.”

As the squad leader, Sergeant Deca roared and directed the two 20mm anti-aircraft guns operated by his squad. Yes, their task is to deal with the most sinister dive bomber. In these air combat, they shot down a dive bomber, so they can proudly paint a white circle on the anti-aircraft gun barrel.

“Fire.”

Following the command of Sergeant Deca, who was observing the height of the enemy plane, two 20mm anti-aircraft guns immediately fired bullets.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

The bullet marks in the air were clearly visible, but they aimed at the dive bomber and dangled in the barrage, passing through the barrage they made.

Seeing the target enemy plane hiding behind, the angry Sergeant Deca yelled. “Speaking of paying attention to the amount of advance, pay attention to the amount of advance, don’t you guys have not figured it out these days.”

It’s just that his yelling didn’t work, and the enemy plane climbed and left their range. No way, the maximum shooting height of the Oerlikon 20mm cannon is only 4700 meters, which is still a 45-degree shooting range, using the most powerful 20×110MM bullet effect. Generally, their shooting height is maintained at a height of three kilometers, no matter how high it is, it will be difficult to shoot.

And this dive bomber also sees that the anti-aircraft firepower below is too strong and does not intend to try its skills.

Although they prevented this enemy plane’s attack, Romanian attacks continued in other places, and the first of them was the horizontal bombing enemy plane.

Above five kilometers, a formation of RU28 twin-engine bombers immediately began to throw aerial bombs. Bombs composed of 50KG, under the optical sight of the pilot aircraft, began to bomb military targets in Beirut.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

The bomb was thrown on the ground with a rumbling explosion, and the raised smoke completely obscured the bombing target. But this is nothing for horizontal bombing. Carpet bombing was used by Germany first in Spain, but Romania learned very quickly and will do the same.

I saw a series of bombings in the target area ~www.mtlnovel.com~ which turned the area into flat ground. Both the army and the civilians suffered heavy casualties from such bombing.

Romania’s current small carpet bombing is carried out horizontally on the scale of one to three squadrons.

Moreover, the height of five kilometers makes small-caliber anti-aircraft guns useless at all, and only medium and large anti-aircraft guns are effective.

The medium and large air defense is a huge flaw for Beirut at present. In fact, it is not a defect, but too much loss in previous bombings. At present, the entire city of Beirut has less than 50 doors. You must know that it had more than 150 doors before, which shows that the loss was heavy.

Of course, during the bombing, some bombers were unfortunately shot down, and this naturally caused the officers and soldiers on the ground to cheer loudly.

But for the huge fleet, it doesn’t hurt at all.

As for the company where Salsay is located, they need to pay more attention to dive bombers because their attack efficiency is higher.
