Latest website: At dawn, the Tu-160 with 36 tons of bombs flew straight north from an altitude of 18,300 meters at twice the speed of sound. At this altitude, the pilot and the co-pilot could already see a touch of red clouds in the east.

Below is Lake Victoria, the largest lake in Africa and the second largest freshwater lake in the world, which will reach the target in just one minute: Entebbe Air Force Base.

At this point in time, the radar at Ende International Airport was not turned on, because there were no flights taking off or landing at all.

It doesn't matter if it is turned on, even if the airport is on first-level alert and fighter pilots are waiting on the side of the plane, there is nothing to do with the "white swan" that penetrates at this altitude at a speed of Mach two!

When they finally climbed to the same height, the "white swan" had already flown out of sight.

For safety reasons, the command finally decided that this Tu-160 would use a rare high-altitude and high-speed penetration as a military training.

As for the accuracy of bombing, there is not much difference between 30 meters and 100 meters. The high-altitude air is thin, and its strong shell allows it to be thrown at such speeds.

At Mach two, the magazine did not open, and the door flew; when the bomb was dropped, the bomb fell apart due to air resistance.

Just now, both the navigator and the weapon system operator had some spare time to talk about the classic Israeli operation in Entebbe 19 years ago.

Assaulted Uganda for thousands of miles, the Israeli special forces created a classic and miracle in the history of world special operations!

But when it comes to my task this time, it is the traditional hammer style: one force will drop ten times!

Soon, the weapon operator opened the hatches of the bomber's two bomb bays, and the radar automatic bombing sight was underneath—they could clearly see the Enpedd that was about to enter the day.

bomb!

From front to back, four huge FAB-9000M-54 high-explosive aerial bombs were dropped in sequence at 0.7 second intervals. Picture 160 all felt continuous "relaxed".

With 36 tons less load in 2.1 seconds, the pilots felt that if it hadn't been controlled by the autopilot, the plane would still go up a bit!

Target area, the airport's second runway is connected to the civil terminal on the west side;

Runway No. 1 is basically military. The surface buildings of Entebbe Air Force Base are north-south, distributed in an area with a length of more than one kilometer and a width of 200 to 500 meters.

FAB-9000 is a high-resistance bomb. It quickly changes its posture as soon as it exits the magazine, and quickly becomes a free fall with its head down.

Few Entebbe people noticed the high-altitude bombers at this time: it's only dawn, and everyone is basically still asleep.

Besides, even if you hear the sound of airplanes, this is the largest international airport in Uganda, plus the only air force base. The sound of airplanes is normal. It would be strange if you didn't hear the noise of airplane engines any day.

Then...

Chenxi was completely awakened!

At a location about 100 meters away from the southern border of the military base, a huge bomb exploded!

The horizontal deviation is about 50 meters to the left, and the vertical deviation is about 100 to 120 meters from the aiming point. No way, the bomber has high speed and high altitude. The deviation caused by the changes in wind and air density and humidity, the gods will come.

But no harm, because the FAB-9000M-54 dropped!

The huge power perfectly solves the problem of insufficient accuracy of the bomb.

All the hangar buildings within a radius of 230 meters from the bombing point were completely finished in an instant. On the east side, in the residential area more than three hundred meters away from the bombing point, the wooden houses were smashed by the shock wave a lot.

Residents farther away were shaken off the bed by the huge shock, and then all the glass windows shattered, shooting like shrapnel!

At a distance of 500 meters, the glass windows of the buildings are 100% empty, and the roofs of many buildings have collapsed!

Although it is close to the airport, the part of the international airport that often takes off and landed is two or three kilometers away to the west, and the air force base close to this side has 6 flying MiG 21s and a few helicopters, which rarely take off and land operations. So this noise pollution is not serious.

In addition, this is very close to the beautiful Lake Victoria, so the residential area near the east side of Ende Pei Air Force Base is not a "poor man's site" near most other cities' airports, but a wealthy area surrounded by greenery and gardens.

It is rich or expensive. Close to military bases and international airports, the public security is very good. Some senior Ugandan officials do not even place their homes in the capital Kampala, which is more than 30 kilometers away. They live here.

It's alright now, the residents here are all awakened, and many are still crying and howling.

But they didn't have a lot of time to howl, loud explosions, shock waves and vibrations came one after another, and the glass on all the houses within two kilometers was almost shattered!

The ceiling collapsed, the door was blown torn apart and torn apart. Those who didn't find cover in the first time to hide suffered three more shocks!

About 450 meters away from the first bombing point, the second huge bomb exploded. The maintenance hangar that directly hit the two MiG 21s connected to it was almost molecularized, and even a complete part no longer existed.

The two MiGs in the hangar next door instantly became small fragments at the same time, and on the outdoor apron on the west side, two MiG 21 and five Mi 8 helicopters about 150 meters from the second explosion point, in the first The shock wave generated when the bomb exploded not only displaced but was also severely damaged.

Just now, it was 300 meters away from the first explosion point in a straight line, but the fuselage was not only exposed to shock waves and some deformations, but also a lot of building fragments, shrapnel, and stones and mud blocks that were blown up.

This would be even more straightforward, as the shock wave of the second bomb directly smashed them into pieces!

The international airport waiting hall more than a kilometer to the west is also in a mess. The glass walls are all broken, the ceiling is completely damaged, and even several large and small planes on the stop ~ www.readwn.com~ have suffered a lot of more than one kilometer. Steel shards, shrapnel and stones produced after the foreign military hangar was bombed.

Each super-heavy aerial bomb exploded about 450 meters apart from the impact point. With two ends, an absolute kill zone with a length of about 1800 meters and a width of nearly 500 meters was formed!

It's not a specially built reinforced hangar. How strong can an ordinary hangar building be?

If here are the tall and large reinforced concrete buildings like Chicago, then the absolute kill zone formed by these four super-heavy aerial bombs is not so large, and even people 150 meters away may survive. At the cost of damage, it can block some terrifying shock waves and shrapnel.

But it doesn't work here. The hangar is just a steel frame, and even the outbuildings are not very strong.

The raging flames ignited, and the explosion also destroyed the oil depot in the air force base. As for the underground ammunition depot with ordinary structure, it was detonated by the third bomb.

Four huge bombs directly opened a death zone!
