Volume 7 Peninsula Smoke Chapter 44 Mechanical Warrior
Lu Yuanshan, the US Navy and the Marine Corps are trying their best.
In the attack on Hamxing, the US military began to "advertise".
Because the Republic Air Force fighter jets have been operating over northern North Korea, the first one to appear was not the US carrier-based fighter jets, but the "Quick Eagle" hypersonic cruise missile launched by the "Zumwalter" class destroyer.
2 The Zumwalter-class destroyer launched 35 missiles within 1c o'clock (actually 36, one of which fell into the sea and destroyed itself due to an engine failure shortly after it was launched. At that time, the United States was promoting this cruise missile with a maximum flight speed of Mach 8 to European allies. In order not to affect export, the US military did not mention the crash in the combat report and counted it as training consumption), attacking one important target including long-range air defense missile positions, shore defense missile positions, command centers and communication centers.
The strike was very successful. Out of 1 target, 11 were completely destroyed and 3 lost their combat capabilities.
After the "Quick Eagle" debuted, the slightly slower "Tomahawk" cruise missile was unveiled.
Compared with the "Quick Eagle", the "Tomhawk" can be regarded as a real "veteran". When the first generation of "Tomhawk" was born, many American officers and soldiers were not yet born.
The US military used all the fifth-generation "Tomahawk", which mainly added "timely attack ability". After arriving over the battlefield, if the attack target is not found, you can fly 2 in a search state, find the target before launching an attack. In this way, the "Tomahawk" has the combat capability to strike mobile targets.
The "Tomahawk" launched by cruisers and destroyers mainly deals with the North Korean mobile forces.
Of the more than one "tooth axe", less than one-third of them attacked fixed targets, and more than 90 of them all carried child warheads, responsible for attacking the North Korean armored forces near Hamxing.
Later, according to the information released by the US military, this round of attacks paralyzed the Tank Battalion and 5 armored battalions!
The naval performance has not ended yet. The US Air Force’s strategic bomber made its debut.
The 12b-2 and 32b-1bb carry cruise missiles with a range of more than 600 kilometers. Some of them drop missiles over the Japanese sea. Some of them simply drop missiles over the Pacific Ocean east of Japan. Neither of them ventured to approach the Korean Peninsula. It was even more impossible to perform volleyball bombing missions.
The bomber within the clock launched nearly 800 air-launched cruise missiles.
As a missile-borne aircraft, the "potential" of strategic bombers can be displayed at a glance. If tactical fighters are deployed and air-launched cruise missiles are projected in the same number of land, at least hundreds of them will be deployed!
The only shame is that the US military still uses "inventory".
In order to feed arms companies like Thunder, the United States has purchased tens of thousands of air-launched cruise missiles in the past few years. Because air-launched cruise missiles are "strategic weapons", they cannot be sold to other countries, including most of the allies. In addition to consuming nearly 70% of the air-launched cruise missiles in the Iran war, at least one air-launched cruise missile is stored in the US arsenal.
If you don't take it out and use it, these missiles will be destroyed in three to eight years.
Since the war started, the US military has used more than one air-launched cruise missile in the battle, and almost spent all the inventory of ammunition.
While consuming large amounts of inventory, the US military is ordering more advanced air-launched cruise missiles from Thunderstorm.
It can be seen from this that the main task of the US Air Force is not to participate in the war, but to consume "surplus materials".
The "missile rain" just fell, and two "Zumwalter" class destroyers came on the field again.
When using edd to attack shells for long-range use, the Zumwalter-class destroyer can strike coastal targets 250 kilometers away from the coastline.
Within 2 hours, the 2~Zumwalter-class destroyer fired more than 1 EDD shell.
The US military once again made the Zumwalter-class destroyer show its face, which is not unrelated to the promotion of arms sales.
Several European countries, including the United Kingdom, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy, are seeking "ideal destroyers", and have developed a strong interest in the "Zumwalt-class destroyers that lead the "trend of the times". If the "Zumwalt-class destroyers can be marketed to European allies, it will not only share the high research and development funds, but also allow several American shipyards in dire straits to survive.
In order to increase competitiveness, the United States has also launched a "simplified version" of the "Zumwalter" class destroyer land.
When the displacement is reduced to 8500~:, a 155mm electrothermal chemical gun was cancelled and equipped with a radar and electronic system with a higher degree of integration. The number of vertical launch systems was reduced from 80 to 6c, reducing some systems that are useful to the US military.
In this way, not only is the displacement easier to be accepted by European countries, but the price is also cheaper.
In order to make money, the United States also excludes the sale of construction technology to European countries, or some of the "Zumwalter"-class technologies, to help European countries design similar destroyers.
By this time, the sky was already bright.
The two air forces (including the US carrier-based aviation) fought all night and were exhausted. The US Navy's carrier-based aviation only came on stage to perform skills at this time.
Air Forces Entered War
The team also launched an offensive.
Unlike landing in Yuanshan, the US Marines must attack Hamhing.
Although the US military had already invested thousands of tons of ammunition in the previous firepower preparations, the Hamhxing defenders did not collapse and remained on the defensive positions.
According to many people's estimates, the US military will be bleeding from the "copper wall" in Hamxing.
The facts are far from expectations. After the appearance, the US Marine Corps used a large number of new weapons and equipment specially developed for positional offensive warfare and urban warfare, and adopted offensive tactics summarized on the Iranian battlefield.
No matter how tenacious the Korean army is, it will not be much stronger than the Iranian army of Abadan.
The position offensive battle is relatively simple. With the support of aviation and long-range artillery fire, the m1a2 main battle tank and mgss (substituting the m2/m3 series of crawler infantry fighting vehicles) took only 3 hours tore open the Korean military defense line, making the Korean military infantry deployed outside the city without any power to fight back.
After entering the city, the first one to appear on the battlefield were a large number of "robot warriors".
The US military has begun to use "land war robots" on a large scale on the battlefield of Iran. The main purpose is to try to avoid the soldiers performing dangerous tasks in urban warfare.
During the battle, heavy armored tank troops rushed to the front, and infantry fighting vehicles followed.
After controlling the street, the micro-drone was responsible for searching nearby buildings. After discovering the target, it was equipped with heavy machine guns and automatic grenade launchers. It entered the building under the remote control of the soldiers to eliminate the enemies hiding in the building. Finally, the soldiers went in to clean up the battlefield.
Very realistic and very cruel battle!
Most of the Korean troops who hope to use the complex urban environment to resist desperately are not facing American soldiers, but killing machines without life and emotion!
At that time, the US military was also equipped with a "suicide" drone carrying a powerful micro-bomb. If it encounters a fortress that land robots cannot conquer, these "suicide drones" will be dispatched and the enemies hiding in the fortress or behind the barricade will be blown to pieces.
Later, the Republic Team seized some of these drones and found that the "explosive" used turned out to be a composite battery!
It has to be admitted that in order to win the war, the United States has brought technology to its extreme.
The battle in the city of Hamxing started around 11th and ended at 18 o'clock in total. In total, in addition to more than one Korean army surrendered, the remaining 21,000 Korean troops were all killed! The US military only paid the price of losing 13 tanks, 211 infantry fighting vehicles, many other vehicles and 2,711 officers and soldiers killed, and 763 injured.
Technology and tactics determine the final outcome.
At that time, a group of Korean troops fled from Ham-xing and eventually fled to the Republic, telling the battle situation in Ham-xing to the Republic military police responsible for "reception".
The U.S. military's extensive use of unmanned combat weapons on the battlefield immediately attracted the high attention of the Republic's Army.
Although the Republic Army accelerated the development of unmanned combat weapons after the Laos and Vietnam Wars and spent a lot of effort to summarize the experiences and lessons of urban warfare, the Republic Army did not have a large number of unmanned combat weapons, and its main combat force was still flesh and blood soldiers.
It is definitely unrealistic to immediately equip combat troops with unmanned combat weapons. The only way is to "paralyze" the US military.
On the afternoon of the 22nd, the special forces that were previously responsible for rescuing parachuting pilots set off from Linjiang and rushed to the front line. They had only one mission, trying to obtain some unmanned combat weapons from the US military.
The Republic's Army knew the "fatal points" of unmanned combat weapons.
Because it is necessary to adapt to complex combat environments, the degree of artificial intelligence of computers is not high. In order to avoid accidental injury of friendly forces, most unmanned combat weapons must be remotely operated by soldiers in the rear. If radio communication signals can be interfered with, the U.S. military's unmanned combat weapons can be paralyzed.
This is like paralyzing the GPS/ins navigation system in the Iran war.
To achieve this goal, the Republic Army must master the working frequency of the US military's radio remote control equipment in order to develop radio interference equipment in a tit-for-tat way.
Here, the importance of "electromagnetic power" is reflected very intuitively.
If you seize air supremacy, you can overtake the enemy's head; if you seize electromagnetic supremacy, you can overtake the enemy's command and control system, turning the enemy into a "headless poisonous snake".
Of course, a small-scale special forces cannot stop the surging US ground forces.
After capturing Xianxing, the US military headed north on the morning of the 22nd, conquered the Five Elders (town name) and divided the troops into two groups, advancing towards Changjin Lake and the Go Zhanhu Lake respectively.
At the same time, a Marine Corps with a size of about 2,500 people attacked Xingnan Port in the south of Hamxing, and then advanced along the railway line to Hongyuan, Beiqing, Liyuan, Duanchuan, Jince, Jizhou, Qingjin and Luoxian in the northeast, and opened up the third offensive route.
At this time of the battle, it was not far from the Republic Army's dispatch of troops to North Korea.
