Chapter 58
The peacekeeping bomber is just a tactical medium bomber in the Red Alert Corps.
But if it is placed in this era, it is definitely a heavy strategic bomber.
It adopts a conventional aerodynamic layout of a medium-wing, and the main wing is a straight wing with a large aspect ratio.
Two 2,800-horsepower piston engines are equipped on each side, with a total power of more than 10,000 horsepower.
With the blessing of sufficient power, its various performances are also very excellent.
The maximum take-off weight exceeds 70 tons, the maximum flight speed is 600 kilometers per hour, and the maximum range is 6,000 kilometers.
The most critical thing is its bomb load, which can carry about 15 tons of bombs.
It is also equipped with a very advanced avionics system.
For example, weather radar, bombing radar, high-precision aiming system, etc.
It gives it a very high bombing accuracy.
With the blessing of the bombing radar, it also has night bombing capabilities.
The bombing radar can also be called a ground mapping radar, and its measured accuracy error is within 100 meters.
It also has a certain air alert capability.
Combined with high-precision bombing���The accuracy of the sight has been greatly improved.
Although it is not as good as the dive bomber that can throw bombs into the kimchi barrel.
But the accuracy is also within 20 meters, which is quite exaggerated for a high-altitude horizontal bomber.
At least it is more advanced than the black technology Norton sight of the Eagle Sauce in World War II.
After all, this is a bomber produced by the Red Alert Base.
The first to appear was an air formation composed of 30 peacekeeping heavy bombers.
They flew in the direction of the Japanese defense line. They mainly carried out carpet bombing on the Japanese positions in the river crossing area.
The Japanese army, which was in the fierce bombardment, felt a black shadow covering them.
When they looked up, they showed a look of horror in their eyes.
At an altitude of 3,000 meters.
A large peacekeeping bomber opened the bomb bay, revealing the bombs inside.
The lightest of them is 250kg, and most of them are 500kg level.
Among them, the 500KG level are napalm bombs.
This thing can be said to be a very cruel weapon.
Once the gel-like napalm gets on a person, it will burn even in water and cannot be extinguished.
It can even burn through bones.
Moreover, when the napalm burns, it will produce toxic smoke, and even a small amount of inhalation will cause poisoning.
"Choo Choo Choo......."
Carpet bombing does not need to consider accuracy.
Bombs fall from the bomb bay like dumplings.
A bomber can carry dozens of bombs.
"Boom boom boom......."
Suddenly, groups of fierce flames burst out on the ground.
Endless flames shot up into the sky, forming a blazing flame.
The blazing flames also emitted a high temperature of more than 1,000 degrees in an instant.
People nearby would be dried up and roasted in an instant.
Even if they were several kilometers away, they could feel the slight heat wave coming towards them.
This scene shocked the 14th Division Commander Matsugi Naoaki and others who were watching.
They never thought that this Chinese army was equipped with such a huge fighter.
Even the largest heavy attack aircraft of their Army Aviation looked so petite in front of them.
The dense bombs and the blazing positions made them even more numbed.
Matsugi Naoaki doubted whether he could really defend Xinmin. The
1st Mechanized Infantry Division was responsible for the river crossing operation.
This river crossing operation concentrated the artillery of two divisions to fiercely bombard the positions in front of the river crossing area.
The suppression was so severe that the Japanese could not even raise their heads.
This is the time for the combat support brigade of the two mechanized infantry divisions to perform.
The combat support brigade has several battalion-level units under its jurisdiction.
One of them is the pontoon battalion.
They are equipped with more than ten bridge-building tanks, which can build a steel floating bridge that can carry a 60-ton tank within an hour.
The bridge-building tank uses the chassis of the Rhino heavy tank.
There is no traditional turret, but a folding steel bridge instead. When stretched out, it is exactly 20 meters long.
The river crossing sites they chose are all about one meter deep, the river is relatively flat and the width is within 400 meters.
Moreover, the bridge-building tanks have very thick defensive armor.
Unless artillery is used, there is no threat to these bridge-building tanks.
A Rhino bridge-building tank drove into the river, and the 20-meter-long steel floating bridge slowly unfolded. It was fully stretched out in one minute.
A 20-meter-long floating bridge appeared on the surface of the Liuhe River.
Then another bridge-building tank drove onto the steel floating bridge and began to relay the construction of the floating bridge.
With a width of less than 400 meters, it can basically be successfully built in half an hour.
The Japanese army obviously did not expect that the Red Alert Corps had such a means of crossing the river.
After seeing this scene, they began to get anxious.
They began to use hidden artillery to bombard the bridge-building tanks.
The Japanese hidden firepower points also began shooting.
MiG jet fighters and Invader attack aircraft swooped down one after another.
Before long, more than ten Japanese artillery pieces were destroyed.
Although the Japs' infantry artillery is very light.
But as long as they open fire, the pilots in the sky can see it clearly.
Half an hour later, steel floating bridges hundreds of meters long appeared on the surface of the Liu River.
"Attack!"
One after another, Guardian main battle tanks and multi-purpose infantry fighting vehicles drove onto the pontoon bridge.
A river crossing battle that should have been thrilling was completed smoothly.
