However, cruise missiles are not yet the first wave of attack force.
The first wave of attack force has also taken off from the Iraqi air force base at this time. They are Iraq's own unmanned attack aircraft.
The unmanned attack aircraft in Iraq naturally cannot avoid the problems encountered by the Americans. After each attack is completed, the stealth coating needs to be maintained once to have the best stealth performance. This time, they are dispatched again , drilled through Turkey's air defense system, and hit the US base there.
These bases are mainly based on the air force. A few years ago, a group of troops were stationed there, but they were all transferred to the Israeli column. As a result, they were captured together.
The fighter planes that took off from Turkey can easily support Israel, so the base here must be destroyed.
Iraq has once again deployed its own killers.
The stealth plane was flying in the sky, and it flew at a relatively high altitude of [-] meters this time.
Because, the Turkish air force base has maintained a high degree of alert, and the E3 early warning aircraft is always cruising in the sky. Aspects are found at certain distances, so it needs to fly higher.
Anyway, satellite-guided bombs are used, so height is no longer a problem. Moreover, after the height is increased, the distance they can throw bombs is also farther, and they can be air-dropped [-] kilometers away from the target.
Just when the cruise missile was about to enter the Turkish land, the stealth unmanned attack aircraft also entered the Turkish airspace, and they approached the target at the same time.
The Iraqi cruise missiles flew from a very special direction. They flew from the west. The pre-warning plane mainly monitored the east. Because Turkey was mountainous, its flying altitude was low. In the beginning, it was not detected. .
The E3 early warning machine was vigilantly searching the surrounding sky, and suddenly, it found countless ballistic trajectories: on the border of Syria, several ballistic missiles were suddenly launched!
Is it a ballistic missile or a rocket?These can no longer be pursued. Hundreds of targets will put heavy pressure on the Patriot missiles.

The first thousand and 160 chapters of Kurdistan
The Patriot missile system began to work urgently. They knew that the target of these things was their base.
At this moment, the early warning plane was suddenly even more surprised to find that a new target appeared out of thin air and flew towards its own missile position. At the same time, near the base, many low-altitude flying objects were found, which must be cruises. missile!
The early warning plane urgently issued a new warning to the ground, but at this time, the Patriot anti-aircraft missile position could not move the target, because the rockets were about to missile, and any of them was a threat, and they had to pick up the ones they were sure of first. ..
Other anti-aircraft missiles and anti-aircraft guns are also ready, but they are not sure enough to face the attack of a large number of weapons.In particular, the reaction time left for them is only a few seconds.
Soon, the entire base was engulfed in flames, including the F15 and F16 fighters on the runway that hadn't had time to take off, were also destroyed.
Just after the air force base suffered a large number of attacks, before they recovered, the ground attack began.
Of course, it is not the Arab ground troops, but the Kurdish guerrillas waiting here. If they want to complete their separatist activities, they cannot have the interference of external forces. This external force is headed by the Americans.
Thousands of Kurdish guerrillas rushed forward in the dark. They were not afraid of sacrifice and marched forward bravely. ..
If they rushed in, all the weapons and ammunition in this base belonged to them. Moreover, with the Americans captured, they could also start a confrontation with the Western world over their own Kurdistan issue.Get them to agree to their own claim to statehood.
As a last resort, the pre-warning plane landed at the base of the Turkish Air Force in the west.Therefore, the reporting of the war situation was a bit slow.At the same time, they are also analyzing where the batch of cruise missiles came from.
In the end, the reconnaissance satellite in the sky came to the correct conclusion that those missiles emerged from the sea water!
That means, Iraq.With the ability to launch cruise missiles underwater.
Powell was skeptical when he received the latest and accurate report.
"Iraq used stealth attack aircraft and dropped about a hundred satellite-guided bombs. At the same time, they used underwater nuclear submarines to launch about a hundred cruise missiles. At the same time, they launched rocket attacks. During these attacks Medium. The rocket attack is secondary, and the launch of stealth attack aircraft and cruise missiles is the main thing." The Deputy Minister of Defense said.
Launched more than 100 cruise missiles underwater?Powell asked: "When will Iraq be able to launch more than 100 cruise missiles simultaneously underwater?"
"We speculate. Iraq has at least two Oscar-class nuclear submarines. They have changed the anti-ship missile launch tubes on them into platforms for launching cruise missiles. Moreover, it is impossible for Iraq to send both of them. They will definitely keep One is in their aircraft carrier formation. That is to say, an Oscar-class nuclear submarine in Iraq can launch more than a hundred cruise missiles, and their cruise missiles have a range of more than a thousand kilometers." Pull Msfield's tone was a little low.
Even if they don't have military common sense, they all know what this means.
Iraq has a vehicle-mounted highly mobile intercontinental missile launching vehicle, which has the capability of a second nuclear counterattack against the United States. Now, Iraq also has a nuclear submarine capable of launching more than 100 cruise missiles at a time. Although it is not a ballistic missile, but, It is still a powerful deterrent force. If such a submarine approaches the coastline of the United States, how many cities can it destroy?
"What about our military presence in Turkey? What's the situation?" Powell asked.
"It's not clear yet, our contact there is lost."
The connection was cut off, because at this time, the Kurdish guerrillas were cleaning the battlefield.They captured more than 1000 Americans.
"Mr. President, Congress has organized an inquiry. Please attend tomorrow. We must prepare for the worst." The White House chief of staff said.
Congress?What are they going to do?Bush was in a terrible mood and thought nothing of it.
"Worst-case scenario?" Powell asked. "Are they going to impeach the president?"
"Right now, Congress is divided into two factions, one of which believes that we must resolutely carry out a nuclear strike against Iraq and completely destroy the power of the Iraqis, and the other wants to hold accountable for our mistakes in this war, especially the successive military Operations have failed, and we need someone to take responsibility for that. But now, almost everyone, is worried about our economy."
Bush frowned. He had been thinking about how to change the current situation. However, according to the current situation, domestic problems would make him even more sad.

Iraq, Port Khomeini Shipyard.
A huge warship with a large deck is in the largest dock in Iraq. The hull has completely left the water. The big holes on the side are shocking.
Anyone, just by looking at it, will recognize that this is the giant of the United States, the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier.
But now, it stopped there quietly like a seriously injured, dying old man.
"Everyone, we in Iraq have always treated this dispute very sincerely. Even if the Americans launched an attack on us, using stealth bombers and cruise missiles to bomb our bases, we still did not attack the US mainland. , moreover, we have rescued thousands of American naval personnel after the naval battle, and they are now being carefully cared for, and for these damaged American ships, we have tried to restore them so that they can be used in appropriate conditions. Time to return it to the U.S. Navy.”
The deputy commander of the Iraqi Navy was in front of the berth and told the visiting personnel that most of them were naval personnel from Europe, and the most official among them was probably the Commander-in-Chief of the French Navy.
They were all visiting in private names, so it was a miracle that they were able to receive high-level reception from Iraq and at the same time, be able to visit this aircraft carrier.
In the final stages of the naval battle, the Americans surrendered, and they had to salvage thousands of their own men who had fallen overboard, all of them were their brothers.
The Iraqi Navy participated in the rescue work. They used a variety of equipment including rescue helicopters to rescue the people who fell into the water. They also salvaged hundreds of dead officers and soldiers.
At the same time, they also controlled the surrendered warships of the US Navy. Since they all surrendered, these things naturally need to be accepted by the victors.
The personnel were all placed in the Saudi port of Dhahran in the interior of the Persian Gulf. After the post-war agreement was reached, they were sent back to the United States along with the Israeli prisoners, but Iraq unceremoniously accepted these equipment.
At this time, the USS Washington was already unable to sail by itself. However, in the final stage, the captain safely shut down the nuclear reactor without causing a nuclear leak. Iraq used more than a dozen tugboats and it took five days to tow it back. own shipyard.
Moreover, out of goodwill, Iraq decided to use its own strength to help the Americans, repair the aircraft carrier, charge the United States a certain maintenance fee, and then return it to the United States.
This kind of goodwill move by Iraq has won unanimous praise from European countries. They are also actively working hard, hoping that the two sides can reach satisfactory conditions and finally resolve the dispute through negotiations.
The Iraqi technicians boarded this aircraft carrier unceremoniously. This was the first time they boarded an aircraft carrier in the Western world.
After several years of development, the design of this giant at sea is undoubtedly the most reasonable. Therefore, it has not been sunk after being hit by nearly [-] Iraqi missiles. It can be said that its anti-strike capability is super strong Well, the new-generation aircraft carrier designed by Iraq itself is under intense preparation, and they stepped on it, just to learn from it.
Various cabins, various equipment, and how much technology Iraq has obtained from this aircraft carrier, I am afraid that no one can calculate it.
In addition to this aircraft carrier, the Aegis cruiser was also thoroughly studied by Iraq.
