Chapter 1447: air gunship

"Kebain, how far are we from the US military's strike area?" Lin Rui took the team for a while, and then used the satellite network to contact Kebain.

"The situation is not good, you are still in the strike area of ​​the US military. You can't run down that road, you have to get out of there." Cobain explained, "Extremist terrorist groups are using this road to smuggle crude oil in exchange for funds, only In the last week, the U.S. military destroyed a dozen of their tankers. Air strikes along that road are now almost the norm.”

"Damn." Lin Rui shook his head and said, "But this is the only way we can get out of the battlefield quickly."

"Boss!" Sergey shouted for a while, "The air strike is coming, hide!" Lin Rui and his team members rolled to both sides in desperation, crawling and hiding in the dry ditch on both sides of the road.

There was a roar of fighter planes in the air, almost like a dull thunder. Crazy Horse's expression changed slightly, "No, this is not a bomber! It's an A-13 air gunboat!" Although Crazy Horse was born in the Army Special Forces, he still knows a lot about fighter planes.

The a-13 heavy attack aircraft was improved by Lockheed on the basis of the US Air Force-13 transport aircraft, known as the "flying gunboat". This type of attack aircraft first appeared on the Vietnam battlefield. At that time, the US military faced a large number of unprotected but numerous and scattered Vietnamese guerrillas, villages, convoys and other targets. Against these targets, guns of various calibers were the most effective and used. The cost is more reasonable.

Therefore, the U.S. military needs an attack aircraft with strong firepower and a long stay in the air. The U.S. military quickly refitted -47, -119, -13 and other transport aircraft, installed search and aiming devices and guns on the doors and sides of the cabin, and added weapon racks to form "flying gunboats."

It is said to be an old model, but after re-development, it is still powerful. Especially for troops scattered on the ground and lacking air fire protection, it has a lethal strike capability. During half a century of service, some features remain irreplaceable. It is extremely advantageous when used against scattered guerrillas and ground targets.

And now the two aircraft should be the latest version of the a-13 "ghost" type operated by Rockwell. The U.S. military used it to clear ground targets, attack transport convoys and small training camps, and it was like playing.

Although the A-13 looks like a transport aircraft, there is a hidden murder inside. On the side wall behind the cockpit are two 2 mm caliber "Vulcan" revolving rapid-fire guns, which can pour 72 shells per minute on the target.

In addition to these, it is also equipped with a 4mm caliber "Bofors" cannon and a 15mm caliber howitzer. The howitzer can "vaporize" the target at a distance of 12 yards, and the huge recoil brought by the gun can even change the course of the aircraft, so the cabin is also specially equipped with brakes.

When the fire control officer shouted "fire", the howitzer braked violently back on the rails and reset with the aid of the hydraulic shock absorber before reloading the shells. The artillery fires a 15mm caliber shell loaded with 5 pounds of explosives that can be fired at a target at a velocity of 1,548 feet per second, and its shrapnel has a kill radius of 15 yards. Therefore, it is extremely deadly to ground infantry, and the title of Angel of Death is not an exaggeration for a-13.

At present, the United States uses a large number of "air gunboats" in military operations in the Middle East. The A-13 "Air Gunboat" in service with the U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command can hover over a target for a long time, launching a deadly attack at any time, with precise firepower and serious damage to the enemy's supply lines.

But this is not good news for Lin Rui and others. He would rather come with a B2 bomber, in that case, at least they will have large targets for regular bombing, and ignore the ground targets that are too scattered.

But now that the air gunships are coming, the situation is completely different. This means that the US military will have a strong lethality to scattered targets on the ground.

Jiang'an was very familiar with the configuration of the US military, and immediately responded, "The two air gunboats are a-13s, which should belong to the 4th Special Task Squadron of the 16th Special Task Group. Damn, I hope they didn't find us. "

"Whether you find it or not, you can't wait to die in the open. Let's go! We continue to move along the ditch by the road, and it is much safer to run to the front of the mountain." Lin Rui shouted loudly, "Let's run!"

In fact, the U.S. military on the plane had already spotted them. Because the "air gunboat" can be invincible on the modern battlefield, but also thanks to its photoelectric system, infrared sensors and computer fire control system. These systems ensure that the "air gunship" can strike targets with extreme precision in dark or low-light conditions.

The newly modified A-13 "Ghost" air gunboat is equipped with a/ap-18 synthetic aperture fire control radar~www.readwn.com~ This radar is used for F-15 fighter jets and can be used for long-range target detection and identification. And can adjust firepower by looking at its impact point without ground observers. And use powerful sensors to closely observe the ground, and use the missiles on board to strike any seemingly hostile targets.

"It should be an armed team who found the ground target. They are very professional. They are moving to the hills ahead along the terrain cover." The operator of the infrared reconnaissance equipment reported immediately.

"Identify their identities and see who they are? They don't look like extremists." The fire control officer on the plane said solemnly.

With the aid of infrared reconnaissance equipment, the observer frowned, "They are wearing camouflage combat uniforms and look like our people?"

"Ask the headquarters if there are other friendly forces operating nearby."

"Understood." The air gunship lowered its height, unable to circle in this area.

"Oops, they found us!" Lin Rui's face changed slightly, and he turned around. "Speed ​​up, they need to ask for instructions before they can attack."

The members of Squad 2 moved quickly along the ditch beside the road, and the scouts on the aerial gunboat were a little stunned. "They are moving too fast. It is expected that they will hide in the mountains in five minutes."

"We and we kill them in seconds!" the American gunner on the plane said coldly.

"The headquarters has responded, and there are no friendly forces around." Another U.S. military officer in charge of communications said loudly.

"So they are the enemy, ready to fight!" the captain roared.

A 25ga-12 cannon on the air gunboat began to turn under the drive of a 15-horsepower electric motor, and the 25-caliber five-barrel Gatling cannon began to shoot downwards. The terrifying caliber and the rate of fire of 3,600 rounds per minute are a nightmare for all ground targets.
