The first watch, today's fifth watch

The result of the clash with the American aircraft carrier on the coast of the Far East was an arrogant reply from the other side and an apology that refused to bow down. The US aircraft carrier retreated several hundred nautical miles after finding out the bottom line of the other side, but the US reconnaissance plane that took off from Alaska's Aleutian Islands still soared over the waters between Kamchatka and Chukotka Autonomous Region.

The Soviet Union intensified its reconnaissance of the Bering Sea coast, and the Soviet military ordered the fighter planes to shoot and kill them without warning once they discovered that they had intruded into the sea area. It is even more resolute than the use of missiles to shoot down U-2 reconnaissance planes. Although the United States protested not diplomatically but privately, Yanayev remained unmoved and resolutely implemented the plan.

"We have never refused US reconnaissance planes, early warning planes, and anti-submarine planes to conduct reconnaissance along the coast of Kamchatka, but you must have your life to go back alive." This is a provocative quote from the Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force, Pyotr Stepanovich Djeonegin.

Of course, the U.S. Air Force, which did not believe that the Soviet Union would really do it, still sent anti-submarine aircraft to play a cat-and-mouse game in the Bering Strait, and after discovering the P3 anti-submarine aircraft, the Soviet Su-27 fighter jet was urgently lifted into the air, and the pilot was like an expert who was used to hunting, and hid very patiently on the sidelines, waiting for the other party to enter the Soviet airspace.

After several provocations, it was found that the crews of Soviet fighters did not appear to convey information to the Aleutian Islands, and after waiting for the permission of the air base, they were even more bold to go deeper into Soviet waters. It's just that they haven't been able to fully penetrate into the waters of the Soviet Union to collect intelligence. A warning of being locked by the radar is heard.

A ghost fighter lurking behind him silently aimed artillery fire and missiles at the poor anti-submarine aircraft. The crew immediately identified themselves. Himself was a coastal patrol aircraft that accidentally entered the Soviet Army. It was not deliberately carried out intelligence reconnaissance in the waters of the USSR, and now it is ready to leave immediately.

The crew thought that they could deceive the Soviet fighters by using this usual trick and simply expel them. But this time the Soviet Union did not have the patience of the past. The pilot of the Su-27 reconnaissance aircraft fired an R73 air-to-air missile directly at the anti-submarine aircraft, and the NATO process missile, codenamed Archer, blew up a large hole in the tail of the P3 anti-submarine aircraft with black smoke and flames.

Having lost power and balance, the anti-submarine aircraft rapidly dropped in altitude and constantly approached the surface of the sea. The pilot sent out a distress signal, but the Su-27 did not fly away after the missile was launched, but directly used the GSh-30-1 30mm cannon to strafe the falling half of the wreckage without any humanitarian words, until the P3 anti-submarine aircraft disintegrated into fragments in the air before swaggering away.

Monitoring tower personnel in the Aleutian Islands put down their headphones. Looking at his colleagues with an extremely ugly expression, the other party is also a kind of loveless expression. Shooting down a fighter without warning is undoubtedly an act of declaring war.

After the P3 anti-submarine plane crash, the Soviet Union, instead of covering it up, publicly shot down an unidentified military plane from the Pacific Ocean and shot it down after invading airspace and warning it was ineffective.

"We have a reason to shoot down any military aircraft that attempts to invade our country within our territory, whether or not they are hostile. As for the unintentional actions of some countries, we say it is very incredible, is it possible that the territory of your country extends to anywhere beyond our borders? Or is there a problem with their government's ability to understand, that place is called the high seas, not your garden swimming pool. ”

Revenge has always been a thing that you have always had to deal with, just when the Soviets were showing their strongest side in the Bering Seas. The United States could not bear it anymore. The recent economic woes in the country have led to criticism and questioning of his policies, and there is a perception that Mario has not shown any centristic policies since he came to power. It has even continued the tradition of Bush's policy of foreign aggression and focused its attention on foreign countries rather than at home. The cover of Time magazine even focuses on unemployed young people walking down the street, holding boxes. Contrast this with politicians who are politically ambitious.

"In response to the Soviet attack on our country's reconnaissance aircraft, it is necessary for us to take harsh countermeasures." As a hawk in the political series, Minister Aspin has long wanted to engage in a low-intensity war conflict with the Soviet Union.

"We intensified reconnaissance of the border, and as soon as we found the traces of Soviet submarines, we immediately retaliated, regardless of whether they were attack nuclear-powered submarines or not, and this was not enough, and after a period of suppression, the national mood in the Caucasus triggered new confrontations and conflicts. The Georgians, the persecuted Wahhabis are gathering strength in an attempt to resist, and it is necessary for us to take advantage of this and create some minor problems in the member states of the USSR. ”

"At the same time, the strategy in the Middle East cannot be left behind, and since they are willing to exchange Iraq's right of asylum, then we do not have to politely tear a long-term gap in the Middle East buffer zone."

What Minister Asping said is a chess game that the United States has set up in the Middle East over the past few years, paving the way for American forces to intervene in the Middle East by constantly courting Saudi allies.

"On the European side, the negotiations between Poland and the Czech Republic have entered a critical period, and they are willing for us to build an anti-missile system on our territory to counter the threat of Soviet long-range missiles."

"It is true that inciting the riots of Georgian nationalists is the fastest and most effective way to deal with the Soviet Union, but at the same time it will be severely suppressed by the Soviet government, at least Yanayev's methods are still possible, otherwise he would not have shown such terrible tough methods when the five member states were in trouble at the same time."

"And the destruction of the anti-missile system in Eastern Europe and the situation in the Middle East is a long-term threat, but I think these three meals are enough to give the Soviet Union a headache."

Minister Asping explained all the ideas in one sitting before leaving the decision to President Mario.

"I have no objection to the anti-missile system and incitement to riots, but if I send troops to the Middle East, I have to think again. After all, the original Gulf War budget had already left Bush with a bunch of messes that had not yet been cleaned up. ”

Even a loyal spokesman for the knights of war like Mario needs to consider how harsh the U.S. military presence in the Middle East would be a tough financial one. But the arms giants behind Aspin and the people behind him were not in a hurry, at least they were still patient, waiting for the Bald Eagle war horn to sound.

"We respect the president's decision." Aspine said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
