Chapter 497: Dilemma
This meeting, even if it is about to end, just before leaving, Andrei continued: "If you can accept it, we can send our Tu-16 bomber to station, this bomber can carry our supersonic anti-ship missiles with a range of more than 250 kilometers, if this weapon system is not satisfied with you, we can also send our Tu-22M bombers, carrying AS-6 anti-ship missile systems, in short, their aircraft carrier formation, in front of our eyes, is a pile of scrap metal." ”
Andrei left this sentence and left with the other Soviet officials, but he knew that his last sentence could move the other party the most.
Historically, Britain only had those light aircraft carriers that could not be built, while Argentina had advanced Exocet missiles.
But now it is different, although the British aircraft carriers are still old ships, they are also regular aircraft carriers, with catapults, Tomcat carrier-based aircraft, not to mention anything else, just the combination of Tomcat carrier-based aircraft, plus the Immortal Bird missile, can closely protect their aircraft carrier formation, and it is not easy for the Argentine air force to get close to the British aircraft carrier at a distance of 300 kilometers.
Therefore, not to mention that there is no Exocet, even if there is Exocet and Super Military Flag, I'm afraid it is useless, after all, their ultra-low-altitude penetration tactics are useless.
If you want to defeat the British aircraft carriers, then it can only be the Soviet Navy.
The sharp weapon developed by the Soviet Navy specifically for the American aircraft carrier formation is now being used on the British Navy, is it not handy?
The most effective is the Tu-22M bomber, which can penetrate at supersonic speed in the final stage, and the AS-6 anti-ship missile carried on it has a maximum range of more than 600 kilometers.
This kind of large-scale killing weapon can only be dealt with by the Aegis system, and those Sea Javelin systems of the British can't intercept it at all, or even a single one.
The Tu-16 bomber is an old bomber, but after modification, it can still be equipped with advanced anti-ship missiles, such as its latest X-41 anti-ship missile.
The Sunburn anti-ship missile is the third-generation anti-ship missile developed by the Soviet Union, and its biggest feature is that it uses a ramjet solid integrated engine, which is a solid rocket when it takes off, and after it is pushed to a sufficient speed, it becomes a ramjet engine.
Mounted on a warship, the range is more than 100 kilometers, and when installed on an airplane, the range is already more than 250 kilometers.
The equipment that the Soviet Navy tailored to the US Navy was used on the British Navy, which was almost a real combat exercise before the World War. In order to help Argentina, the Soviet Union can be regarded as open-minded, because the Soviet Union's strategy is still global, it is still to liberate the entire Western world, and it will eventually land in the Americas, and if it gets an ally here in Argentina, it will definitely be advantageous.
As for the oil in the Falklands, it's just a rhetoric, there is no free lunch in the world, why did the Soviet Union help Argentina so much? The joint development of oil in the Falklands is, of course, to reassure the other side that it is only the oil there that they are plotting.
The cost of extracting oil from the bottom of the sea is quite high, even more wasteful than mining under the permafrost of our own plateau, and now it is the 80s, and it will not take a few years for global oil prices to fall under the control of the United States, and there is no need to extract oil here.
What we care about is to exert the influence of the Soviet Union in South America, and through this war, we will turn Argentina into our ally and Argentina into a bridgehead for attacking the backyard of the United States.
In the past, the Soviet Union valued Cuba, but unfortunately, Cuba was of no use to itself, it was too close to the United States, and at the same time it was an island country, and it did not meet on the mainland.
Now, we must fight this battle!
The Soviets left, and Galtieri immediately convened his own think tank and began to deliberate.
"We tried our best to turn to the United States, but the result? Now that we have been abandoned by the United States, the Soviets have extended an olive branch to us, but the Soviets are also uneasy and kind. Galtieri said: "This time, if we completely turn to the Soviets, we will never be able to get rid of the Soviet Union again." ”
Galtieri knew in his heart that if he asked the Soviets for help, he could win the war in front of him, but he would be controlled by the Soviet Union from now on, and the Soviets were quite ruthless against uncontrolled countries, just look at Afghanistan now.
He did not want to be at the mercy of the USSR.
"Mr. President, we cannot win this war without advanced weapons, and we have just received news that the US Navy has lent the British Navy four E-2 Hawkeye AWACS aircraft." said the commander of the Navy.
Hearing his words, Galtieri's eyes were on fire, the Americans, repeatedly breaking through their own bottom line!
Once the British Navy has AWACS aircraft, it will protect their fleet airspace more carefully, and the British Navy is so aggressive, do they really want to go to war?
Aren't the British afraid of the deterioration of the situation in Europe, of the sudden dispatch of troops by the Soviets?
Galtieri's mind was undecided.
"What the other side said just now when he was leaving, it has already hinted that as long as we need it, the Soviets will provide full help, so that we can win this war completely, and the weapons they said are the most advanced." The commander of the Navy continued.
The Soviets generally provided shrunken weapons to the outside world, but this time it was not, after all, the Soviets operated it themselves and would not fall into the hands of a third party.
The Soviets fully supported their own war, but the British, are they pretending or are they really going to war?
At this moment, suddenly, a man outside hurriedly walked in and said to him: "President, just a few minutes ago, our Falkland Islands were bombed by British bombers!" ”
The British, they couldn't wait, and before the naval fleet could sail over, the British Air Force had already accomplished a feat by dropping bombs on the heads of the Argentines!
Following the news of the Falklands occupation, the RAF began to deploy at Widiawick Air Base on Ascension Island in the Atlantic, including McDonnell Douglas Ghost FGR.2 fighter-bombers and 44 Squadron Vulcan bombers, as well as a fleet of Victory air tankers. Naturally, it is much closer to take off from here than from the British mainland.
