Perhaps, at the next moment, the Iranians should launch missiles.

Although the United States and Saudi Arabia have a very good cooperative relationship, this time Saudi Arabia did not ask the US government for help, but organized a group of escort formations that made people laugh out loud to protect the safety of this oil tanker formation. Therefore, for the Iranians The United States is just a bystander in the missile attack. Their early warning planes are constantly collecting the parameters of this radar to provide data for their own counterattack.

Saudis, when you are killed by the Iranians this time, you have to go back and ask the US Navy for help!Thinking that there was no reason for our side to enter the Persian Gulf, the combat intelligence officer on the E-2 early warning plane was full of expectations to see how much damage they would suffer!Let them see for themselves what level they are.

Due to the need to take off and land from the aircraft carrier, compared with the E-2, the E-3 pre-warning aircraft is just a little brother, limited by the small airframe, the performance of the E-2 pre-warning machine is also better than that of the E-3 There are only 5 crew members, the front is the pilot and the co-pilot; the rear cabin is lined up with radar, identification friend or foe equipment and computer cabinets, and there are three crew members: radar operator, combat intelligence officer and air control member.

The radar operator stared at the big screen in front, waiting for a few light bands to fly out from the side of the strait, and then hit the mighty formation, it was almost inevitable.

Suddenly, the radar operator found a snowflake on the big screen in front of him, bad, electronic interference!

Since the advent of the E-2 pre-alarm, it has been continuously improved.Until the development of E-2C, a high-power engine was refitted, and the AN/APS-120 radar was replaced. Although it still works in the P-band, it adopts the double delay line fixed target cancellation technology, which strengthens the anti-interference ability and has The ability to look up and down on land is improved, and the detection distance is increased.Later, the AN/APS-125 radar system was modified to further improve the target detection and anti-jamming capabilities. The detection distances for different targets reached: 741 kilometers for high-altitude bombers, 463 kilometers for low-altitude bombers, 360 kilometers for ships, and 408 kilometers for low-altitude fighter jets. Low-altitude cruise missile 269 kilometers.

After being disturbed, this E-2 early warning aircraft took countermeasures immediately, and at the same time, it was also determining the location of the source of interference.

Finally, they discovered that the source of interference came from the formation of ships on the sea, the frigate at the forefront!

Relying on its own electronic superiority, the U.S. military successfully eliminated the threat of the source of interference and found the location of the source of interference. However, it was not so easy for the Iranians on the ground.

Iran's missile force is preparing for the launching process nervously. After the radar was turned on, it successfully identified many ships sailing on the sea, and locked the target on the frigate at the front. That is the pride of the Saudi Navy!

The Saudi Navy's newly commissioned frigate, the Ai Buha with the hull number 706!

The three missiles were almost all aimed at the same warship. Although that warship had advanced ship-to-air missiles, those missiles could only be fired one at a time and hit one target. He certainly couldn't resist it at the same time. Attack of three missiles!

The Iranians are self-taught, and they actually thought of this method of saturation attack.

It's just that they didn't expect that before the missile was launched, a white mist appeared on their radar screen, and then they lost the target.

Electronic interference!

The officers and soldiers operating the radar in Iran were already at a loss looking at the radar screen full of white mist, because during the introduction process, they received training and were also told that the electronic equipment of this missile was advanced and had Strong anti-interference performance!

what's the result?The radar has been jammed before the missile is launched.

What's worse, they don't have any countermeasures, they can only wait here stupidly.

"Why don't you transmit the target data?" At this moment, a stern voice came from the commander vehicle.

"Report, we have been jammed, and the radar has lost its target."

"I don't care if there is any interference or not, just transmit the data to me immediately."

By Allah, how can data be transmitted if there is interference!The radar soldier couldn't help but want to scold, that person was transferred from Tehran, and no one dared to offend him.

On the surface of the sea, the personnel on the Badr are busy busy.

The interference equipment has been turned on. What they need to do now is to maintain these equipment. Within two hours, there must be no failures, and the protection formation will completely pass through the most dangerous Strait of Hormuz.

At this time, the sky outside was about to get completely dark.

In front of the Badr is the Iraqi tanker Tam, and they are also making final preparations.

Except for the warships in the front and rear, there are only two small missile boats of several hundred tons patrolling quickly on both sides of the formation. Because this is an escort mission, the missile boats do not carry heavy anti-ship missiles and are relatively light.

However, the more than 40 ships in the entire formation also spread over a distance of [-] nautical miles. It is obviously not enough to patrol with only two missile boats.

Their attention was all on the anti-ship missiles that might fly from the shore. It was already dark, and the flames of the anti-ship missiles would be very dazzling.

On the surface of the sea, a dozen small boats were coming quickly. In the darkness, the armed personnel on board stared fiercely at the oil tanker ahead like hungry wolves.

When the oil tanker formation approached, the maritime forces organized by the Islamic Revolutionary Guards of Iran began to sail. They did not know that their anti-ship missiles were interfered. They were just performing their own duties: using their own Weapons in hand, kill these tankers!

When they arrived, they just caught up with the rear of the formation. Looking at the tall tanker, the armed men showed their ferocious faces: Let's do it!

Iran is short of aircraft and missiles, but Iran has no shortage of people. To block this strait, it does not have to use all missiles, but it can also use people!

Since the Strait of Hormuz is an important waterway, there are countless lighthouses at the center line to guide the sailing ships.

Looking at the lighthouse in the distance, Marwan knew that his time to act had finally come.

"Ready to launch the boat," Marwan said.

Taking advantage of the night, they need to take a small boat to reach the coastline of Iran to complete their task, which is very difficult but must be completed.

Walking to the side of the ship, Hades, who was fiddling with the night vision goggles, suddenly noticed something unusual on the sea: several small boats were approaching quickly!

"Don't release the boat yet, there is a situation!" Hades said.

Chapter 449 Crazier Than Pirates

Asili led his ten-man team on a speedboat, and under the cover of night, they approached a huge oil tanker.

This speedboat was modified by them. At the front of the speedboat, a 12.7mm heavy machine gun was installed. The machine gun was equipped with armor-piercing incendiary tracer bullets. In the position of the platoon crew, except for some of them holding ordinary assault rifles, the others are all holding rocket launchers.

There are more than a dozen armed personnel like them, some scattered to find their own targets, and some joined forces to target an oil tanker.

The rocket launcher can tear the side armor of the tank at close range. For the [-]-ton tanker, the steel plate on the side is not as thick as the armor of the tank. Therefore, there is absolutely no problem for the rocket launcher to hit the tanker.

Asili is very confident in this attack, although up to now, those guys operating anti-ship missiles have not fired yet, they can't wait any longer, and decided to launch the attack first.

There are five small boats in total, and they are preparing to besiege an oil tanker. As long as the oil tanker is killed, they will successfully complete the mission.

Marwan was also surprised when he heard Hades' shout. Through the night vision device, he also found something unusual on the sea surface. The small targets that were moving quickly were definitely a few small boats!

Without even thinking about it, Marwan knew that the ones who came must be Iranians.

When everyone's eyes are on big guys like anti-ship missiles, no one will be on guard, and the Iranians will come to attack in small boats.

"Notify the captain immediately so that the crew of the whole ship are ready. At the same time, let the captain notify the entire formation to pay attention to the Iranians coming to attack in small boats." Marwan quickly ordered a soldier to convey the news.

This is a 1-ton oil tanker, tens of meters long, and it takes [-] minute to walk from where they are to the cockpit.

Before all the equipment had time to deploy, the members of the special forces just used the light weapons in their hands, preparing to fight the Iranians on the small boats approaching the side of the ship.

On the sea surface, due to the influence of waves, ships will shake, and the smaller the ship, the more obvious the shaking will be. On this 300-ton oil tanker, in the calm Persian Gulf, the shaking is already very little, plus The soldiers of the special forces have all been trained. They put the heads of the enemies who are getting closer and closer in the distance on the sights of their weapons. As long as the opponent is within [-] meters, they can fire!

The sniper, on the other hand, aimed his gun at the guy operating the machine gun in front of the boat. After a while, he really started fighting. That guy was the most dangerous. A 12.7mm bullet might penetrate the steel plate of his oil tanker. If it hits the body, it will definitely be torn to pieces immediately.

"Captain, the Iranians are coming. Hurry up and tell everyone on the ship to get ready, tell our entire fleet of ships to get ready to meet the enemy." Shouted the captain, first mate and others who were ready to pass through the strait.

The Iranians are here?The captain glanced out, didn't he see the flames from the Iranian missiles?

"Captain, it was the Iranians who came to sneak attack in small boats. There are at least a dozen of them. We need to prepare the crew and notify the entire formation." The special forces soldier shouted.

By boat?The captain suddenly reacted: "First officer, immediately notify all ships to be prepared through the formation channel of the radio."

At the same time as electronic interference, the communication channel of the entire formation is also reserved, so that they can communicate with each other.
