Original December 28, 983, Iran's last Wednesday original debut]

On this day, it is the traditional festival of Iran, the festival of jumping over the burning fire, which is the highlight of the festival, which is already the oldest festival in Iran, which can be traced to the former Persian dynasty. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info≦≧

And this year's fire jumping festival is even more meaningful, because the burning flame symbolizes the war in Iran! Iran has not fallen, Iran is still fighting!

In Tehran, the capital of Iran, as soon as it gets dark, many Iranians begin to light piles of bonfires in front of their homes or in the middle of alleys, and they jump over the fires to say that they will burn the "bad luck", usher in light, drive away evil spirits and diseases, and live forever.

Although this festival is only a folk festival, in order to boost morale, in such a festival, important leaders of Iran issued a speech, calling on the Iranian people to summon up the courage to fight the invading Iraqis to the end! Although Iraq has invaded our land, the Iranian people will never give in!

In Tehran, a military parade was held afterwards to show that Iran, despite its defeats, is still a strong fighting force!

In particular, the two newly trained infantry divisions, lined up in a neat line, passed in front of the square, Rafsanjani, who was on the rostrum, couldn't help but puff up his hands, Iran has a population of 50 million, of which there are 5 million youths, as long as zhèngfu has enough time, they are enough to arm an army of a million!

Let the Iraqi armed forces disappear in this ocean of people's war! Rafsanjani suddenly gained confidence. ≦

Now, the Iraqi army, there is no sign of action, Iraq has lost this opportunity, as long as it passes this cold winter, they will be able to have a few more infantry divisions of troops!

Until now. Rafsanjani is very sure. The offensive of the Iraqi army has reached a limit, any army. It is impossible to attack all the time, they need to rest, since the launch of the northern offensive. Those Iraqi troops have been fighting on the Iranian plateau for several months, and they are probably exhausted to the extreme, plus their logistical maintenance is still transported through the direction of the Iranian plateau, so the current front is surprisingly calm.

Baghdad. ≦≧

Qusay looked at the news reports and at the Iranian troops walking by in neat lines. He could see that the number of armored units in it was significantly less, on such a significant thing as a military parade. Iran can't come up with a formed armored brigade to go through the motions. There were also a few planes flying in the sky, but they didn't see it clearly. Perhaps, an old-fashioned F-5 fighter.

The Iranian army has become a toothless tiger! It is even worse than the Iraqi army, which has been sanctioned in later generations.

High-level Iraqi figures in Baghdad have gathered at the Ministry of Defense, because the military operation, codenamed Babylon Fire, is about to start!

This war will burn directly to Tehran!

Within the Ministry of Defense, Iraq's C3I system has begun to run at full speed, and one of the large-scale computers imported from the Soviet Union has been installed in the Ministry of Defense to undertake the data calculation of the entire system, while the other two have been secretly sent to the nuclear weapons development department to accelerate the development of the nuclear weapons program.

A lot of data of the C3I system is provided by the fan pre-jing machine that has flown over Bakhtalan, at this time, although the fan pre-jing machine has not officially completed the development, but, basically, it is very mature, for this major strategic operation, of course, this kind of air combat power booster is indispensable, because, no matter what the battle is, it will always start from the sky!

"Your Excellency Qusay, we, the Northern Military District, are ready for all the battles. ≦≧" Adnan said, "Operation Babylon Fire, request to be launched immediately. ”

"Agree to start immediately, our goal is to take Tehran!" Qusay said loudly.

With Qusay's nod, one piece of information began to be released to the various units through the C3I system, and the first to be dispatched was the air force of the Northern Military District.

The second batch of Mirage 4000 fighters from France were finally equipped by His Excellency Qusay to the Northern Military Region, these fighters have been replaced with F404 engines, and Qusay knows that the pressure on the air force of the Northern Military Region is actually very great, in addition to the Iranian Air Force, their more important enemy is the Israeli Air Force in the north.

Therefore, while the Southern Military Region is gradually improving the combat capabilities of its fighters, the air force of the Northern Military Region has finally ushered in the time for them to change their blood. ≦≧

Four Mirage 4000s, a fighter squadron, were settled at the H-3 Air Base, and, from the Southern Military District, Reyes was transferred back to serve as the captain of the future Mirage 4000 Brigade.

Reyer is a pilot with a wealth of combat experience, and at the same time, he is also a person who regards flying as a life, and in a few months, he has flown all the subjects of the Mirage 4000 and has become an all-weather pilot of the Mirage 4000.

In addition to the Mirage 4000, the F-20 fighters on Iraq's own production line have also been equipped with a brigade of the Northern Military District, capable of using Iraq's existing JI guided weapons.

In addition to these two kinds of fighters, the first batch of four Su-24 front-line attack planes from the Soviet Union were also equipped in the air force units of the Northern Military District, and a series of recent moves by Kusay made Air Force Commander Major General Abid very happy, in the era of Saddam, the Northern Military Region was the most valued, and now, President Saddam Hussein has handed over most of the power to His Excellency Qusay, and His Excellency Qusay's center of gravity has finally shifted to the north, which is also the result of the recent bloody struggle of the officers and men of the Northern Military District. Although the Southern Military Region is the starting force of His Excellency Qusay, the North is the real foundation of Iraq. ≦≧

At this time, the air force of the Northern Military Region has begun to take off air superiority fighters, four Mirage 4000, four Mirage F1 and two squadrons of advanced fighters, ready to undertake the first task of this operation: to completely seize air supremacy!

How many fighters can the Iranian Air Force take off? How many combat capabilities are there? Iraq's air force needs to completely defeat the Iranian air force in order to be able to facilitate subsequent operations.

This time, it is more to test the final strength of the Iranian Air Force, so Iraq did not dispatch electronic jamming aircraft, they already have eyes in the sky: pre-jing aircraft!

Two squadrons of fighters, after taking off from the airbase, flew east over the state border, from the direction of Kurdistan, into Iranian airspace.

At this time, Kurdistan was already under the control of the Iraqi army, however, in the north and east of Kurdistan, there were also the air defense units of the Iranians, their only remaining long-range pre-radar, which detected Iraqi aircraft crossing the border.

However, this did not attract much attention from them, and now, the sky of Iran is almost Iraqi, and their long-range pre-jing radar, after spotting the opponent's plane, chose to turn off instead, because they were afraid of being hit.

They made a big mistake!

Continuing to the east, flying over Hamadan, Tehran's air defense center, finally received a belated report: Iraq's air force, the size of two air groups, is flying towards Tehran!

Although the strength of the Iranian Air Force is already weak, at this juncture, even if they only have one plane and only one missile, they must protect their capital!

In the process of evacuating the people from Tehran to the air-raid shelter, the fighters of the Iranian Air Force on combat readiness duty at the Tehran Air Base also began to take off urgently.

The first to slide onto the runway is Iran's trump card, F-14 fighters, Iranian ground crews have worked hard to finally make this powerful fighter, four of which can take off for combat, and today, two are being maintained in the hangar, and it is these two Tomcat fighters that can take off.

The rest of the fighters, a squadron of F-4 fighters, are also intensively preparing and ready to take off for support.

At this moment, Iran only took off two fighters first, because their inventory of consumables is already very small, every time they take off, they will consume these precious wearing parts, and they even take off to meet the enemy, they have become stingy, but because of this emergency, they took off their more precious F-14 fighters.

Although the Iranian pilots know that they do not have the Immortal Bird missile under their wings, they will definitely win with the Sparrow missile and the Sidewinder missile!

Because, the powerful radar in the nose of their aircraft is their magic weapon to win.

It's just that they don't know that now, no matter how powerful their radar is, it can't withstand the pre-jing.

In the future, air combat will be a confrontation of the entire system, and it is not possible to dominate everything with one or two advanced fighters and one or two high-energy radars and missiles.

However, even if it is a head-on encounter, the Mirage 4000 will definitely not be left behind.

It's just that now, they don't need to do that.

After the Iranian Air Force planes took off, the Hunter Pre-Jing plane, which was cruising back and forth over Bakhtaran and Hamadan, had spotted the two planes, and through the data link, they had been synchronously displayed in the command center in the rear.

"Note that there are two enemy aircraft, azimuth 3, at a distance of two hundred kilometers." In Rayer's headphones, the sound of the pre-jing machine came.

In later generations, Iraq's most famous ace in air combat, Falcon Reyer, was ambushed by the Iranians on the way back with the MiG-25.

But now, that will never happen again. To be continued
