The other six Mi-24s are much cleaner under the short wings on both sides of the fuselage, with a chubby thing on one side, which at first glance thought it was hanging two auxiliary fuel tanks.

If someone who is knowledgeable sees it, they won't think so: This is not a fuel tank at all, but two ОДАБ-500ПМ aviation cloud explosive bombs, 500 kg class!

One on each side, a ton in total!

Gunship as a bomber

Yes, the Mi-24 can be used as a bomber, and because the flying speed is not fast and the height of the bomb is not high, even if the bomb is not guided, the hit accuracy can be very good.

Soviet pilots used to do this in Afghanistan, and the effect was very good. The Afghan guerrillas suffered heavy losses in the bombing!

Of course, this can only be used to deal with the guerrilla target that lacks anti-aircraft firepower. If the opponent is a regular army equipped with a large number of anti-aircraft missiles, the risk of the Mi-24 dare to do this is too great!

This raid was a beheading operation, but because Menongue is a large-scale city, a small team cannot be sent to make a raid: the target is easy to hide, and the assault team is easily trapped.

"Black Hawk Down" has not been staged in Somalia, but "United Forces" is not arrogant, knowing how many catties this person has.

They do bombing, lack guided bombs and throwing capabilities, and do not count on Angolan government planes. Even if they are equipped with Su-24 "bomb trucks", they can throw bombs hundreds of meters away from the target!

There was no time to wrestle with the Angolans and borrow planes to fight. The Mi-24 pilots thought they could accomplish the task: the target was hiding in the provincial capital of Menongue, protected by the UNITA garrison nearby.

The boss said that the civilian casualties can be ignored. No matter how much additional damage is caused there after the attack, there will not be any scenes that shouldn't appear in any mainstream media.

Then do it!

Pilots don't have to worry too much about the problem of death if they are shot down. The advantage of this civil war is that there will be intelligence personnel from the other side in a larger city.

The target person's living location is clear, and the outskirts of Menongai are wilderness terraces, and the responders have entered in advance.

There are also Mi-8 helicopters in response to the evacuation. Besides, as long as the damaged Mi-24 helicopter can make an emergency landing in the suburbs, the other Mi-24 can take away friendly pilots.

The Mi-24 has a crew cabin capable of accommodating 8 infantry, but this is for the largest military load, without the cumbersome airborne infantry at all.

...

In the early morning, half an hour before dawn, eight Mi24s took off one by one on an asphalt road in the deserted farm, blowing a gust of wind!

These Mi-24s did not have night combat capability. They were normal in the early 1990s.

There was no heavy rain, and there were more heavy rains in the afternoon and the first half of the night in the rainy season, but for safety, the pilots pulled up the helmet goggles, and their eyes were facing the low-light night vision goggles.

The extra-installed, American product, light weight, is directly fixed to the helmet with a strong plastic bag, and can be turned up directly when not in use.

The pilot of the lead plane is called Sasha, in his forties, he has been flying helicopters for 17 years, Feimi 24 has been flying for more than 11 years, and he has been in Afghanistan for nearly 5 years. He has rich practical experience.

The weapon operator in front felt a bit squeezed in the seat. This guy came to make soy sauce: it was Alyosha, who had only been in contact with the Mi-24 for three days, and only learned to operate the 7mm Gatling gun in the nose.

Yes, it was Zhang Nan’s bodyguard, Alyosha, who was actually not in his turn to control the machine gun on this trip. The Mi-24 pilot was also able to use the machine gun, but most of the time it was the operator’s job.

The leader of the flight is carrying two fuel-air bombs, and they will leave when they are dropped. The weapon operator does not need to use rockets or anti-tank missiles at all.

None of the six Mi-24s carrying bombs had a weapon operator. Because they did not need them, the pilots were all true elites. As a result, the liaison officer Alyosha was stuffed into the front cabin of the lead flight.

It was not his turn to lead. It was less than 150 kilometers. When the flight arrived, it was dawn, and the target building was very conspicuous in the north of the city: last night, according to intelligence, the target did not leave at all.

The bomb went down just ten minutes after daybreak, and Savimbi probably hadn't gotten up at that time!

Sasha and Alyosha are quite destined, but Sasha is still talking nonsense with Alyosha through the intercom.

"Alyosha, you are really Chinese"

"I have told you eight hundred times, I am Chinese and Russian, what's weird!"

"It just feels weird, how come there are Russians in China?"

"Thank you Lenin, those people from my grandfather were in Huaxia at that time. I told you about this, why don't you always remember."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it, the Baltic Sea has pulled Lenin down a lot, and there are many **** in Russia doing this.

A bunch of traitors!

By the way, there will be no outsiders here, just tell the truth, what about the boss?"

"Don't worry about this, as long as..."

These two guys are really fate. Sasha is also from Leningrad. As I said a few days ago, the place where he lives is on the same street as Alyosha's old home, and both can be regarded as neighbors.

Moreover, Sasha's ancestor lived in Leningrad, his grandfather's generation lived on that street. Later, the welfare house was divided. He chose the place where he used to live as a child, a newly built apartment on the same street, and his family still lives there.

Now that the troops are downsized and cancelled, the money is almost a waste of paper, and Sasha, who has retired, doesn't know what to do.

The old boss made a phone call and felt that he couldn't make his three children live with his wife and parents if he couldn't make a fight. This came.

His parents' pensions were not enough for a meal, the black market was rampant, and he didn't want to think about Leningrad now.

"...As long as you work as a pilot honestly, thanks to your career, you will definitely have one hundred thousand dollars after the annual salary and taxes, and you will also provide housing or something.

If you are a man at home, in addition to buying alcohol and cigarettes, there is no place where you spend money, just like in the army, that is, one month at most a year to visit relatives.

But if your immediate family members come to visit you, no matter how many people are, every two years, all round-trip air tickets worldwide will be reimbursed!

How about ~www.readwn.com~ Welfare is good!

By the way, all the company’s camps, base restaurants, and clubs also provide free vodka, which means there is a maximum amount every day, so you can’t let it go. "

Sasha's pilots are all elites, and Alyosha also hopes that these people can stay. This will not forget to boast about the company's welfare.

"What is your annual salary"

Sasha couldn't help asking: He heard that this guy is the bodyguard of the big boss.

"You can't do my job. The profession is different."

Don’t give up, "300,000"

"Forget it, don't be afraid to tell you, anyway, as long as you stay in the company, you will know that there will be millions of dollars a year.

If you can become the boss's private business jet pilot, you will have a chance to do it for hundreds of thousands a year. "

Personal bodyguard, how many people can be

Sasha is a bit envious, but not jealous, just like the treatment of the pilot cannot be compared with that of the astronaut.

"I can only fly Soviet helicopters. I can't fly an American airliner, and I won't be able to learn at this age."

Speaking of this, Sasha stopped and said: "The boss's bodyguards are not all Chinese, right?"

"It's not a secret. Both Chinese and Americans have bodyguards. As for the periphery, there are people from several countries."

"I said Alyosha, I don't want to earn one million a year, but my brother definitely has your ability, even stronger, he has the ability to get your annual salary."

"Your brother

What are you doing"

"The colonel officer of the KGB Special Operations Department's improved officer establishment training team, um, has just been forced to retire. Their troops disbanded last month, **** map brother!

Dog-mother! "

This was in the plane. Upon hearing this, Alyosha couldn't help but turn around and turn his head, and looked at Alyosha at a high place behind him sideways, and said: "Red Devil"

"What Red Devil"

Sasha was a little confused.
