Chapter 419: Radar warning


The main force of the attack was the "combat" bomber. Philip's aircraft first started the engine and took off quickly from the runway. The advantage of the single-engine bomber was its speed!
Behind him, one bomber after another rolled off the runway and took off. After taking off, they immediately flew westward, preparing to cross Egypt and enter Libyan airspace.
At the same time, behind the formation, there were fourteen bombers much larger than them.
The Bristol-Blenheim bomber, a twin-engine light bomber used by the British Air Force at the beginning of World War II, was developed and manufactured by the Bristol Aircraft Company. It was widely used in Britain and its overseas colonies during the early period of the war.
The original mk.i began to be equipped with troops at the end of 1936. At the end of 1937, 16 flying teams were equipped with this fighter. In 1938, the aircraft began to be shipped to overseas colonial territories in turn. When the Second World War broke out, most of the mk.1 fighters were deployed in the Mediterranean and Africa. Now, the 47th Bomber Squadron is equipped with this twin-engine bomber, which is also the most advanced bomber in the Egyptian Air Force base.
Three bomber squadrons, more than fifty aircraft, formed a large fleet, flying in the direction of Libya.
When Germany began to extract oil in Libya, the United Kingdom has been investigating Libya. Therefore, they easily discovered a large number of kowtow machines in the desert, which is the main oil producing area of ​​Libya’s oil fields. Amal oil field.
Germany attaches great importance to the Amal Oilfield, and even repaired oil pipelines to the port. At the same time, it also started construction of a runway next to the oilfield to facilitate the transportation of equipment.
With more than fifty planes in the sky, the scene is quite spectacular, but it is unrealistic to blow up all the oil fields in Libya at once. Therefore, they can only bomb one of them first, and of course the largest one. The Amal Oilfield!
On the lead Philip's bomber, the pilot Norton drew a straight line on his own aeronautical chart. After taking off from the base, their course was aimed at the Amal oil field!
The entire fleet, flying at an altitude of three kilometers, at a speed of 300 kilometers per hour, flew towards the distant target. At this time, everyone was very nervous and angry.
Blew up the German oil fields and let them know how powerful the Royal Air Force is!
Their entire formation is full of bombers and no fighter jets are escorting them, but they don't care.
Both of these bombers are high-speed bombers, relying on speed to defeat their opponents. Moreover, the performance of the bombers is comparable to that of fighters. Once the bombs are dropped, they can become fighters.
Secondly, they have nothing to worry about. The Italians did not deploy air forces on a large scale in Libya at all, and the other side did a sneak attack. The other side never knew!
Of course, this is the British philosophy.
In an era without radar, it is difficult to provide sufficient early warning time for air strikes by enemy bombers based on ground-based air defense observations. Fighters generally only have time to intercept the bombers on their way back.
Therefore, light bombers with fast speed and good maneuverability are considered to have considerable advantages in terms of survivability. Therefore, the fast light bomber can also be said to be a reasonable choice under this combat theory and environment.
Unfortunately, the British have fallen behind.
In the easternmost part of Libya, in the desert, an 88-drive Ford truck has a huge antenna deployed in the back compartment.
If viewed from a distance, this huge antenna is like a tall scaffold. The sides of the Ford truck are hydraulically supported to secure this radar properly.
At the same time, there are several vehicles supporting support. One of them is rumbling. It is a generator car. The huge amount of electricity is transmitted to the radar car next to the antenna through a thick cable. The circuit is fed to the antenna.
Dense electromagnetic waves flew into the sky.
This is the latest radar developed in the Libyan base, code-named fugm39 "Wurzburg" short-range surveillance radar. The working frequency is 560mhz, the effective detection distance is 170 kilometers, the ranging accuracy is 100 meters, and the angle measurement accuracy is 0.2 degrees.
Historically, this radar was only manufactured in 43 or 44 years. In terms of radar, Germany is not behind, but now, the time has been greatly advanced.
In addition to this radar, the base is also developing a long-range warning radar with a detection range of 300 kilometers.
In the compartment of another equipment vehicle, two radar soldiers were on duty with sweat. The weather in Libya was really too hot.
They were even disfigured. They only wore a vest on their upper body. At this time, the vest was soaked. Their eyes were still staring at the radar screen. On it, a bright line was turning, which meant that the radar was scanning. .
Suddenly, a radar soldier's eyes widened, and countless bright spots appeared on his screen!
"I found that the large cluster ~EbookFREE.me~at an altitude of three thousand and a speed of three hundred, is coming to us!"
"Quickly, report to the base immediately and start the emergency plan!"
When the battle in Scarpa Bay was over, the most forward outpost was deployed, at least for the oil base in the rear to get more than half to an hour of preparation time!
Petroleum bases are currently the most important source of oil in Germany. Although Germany has already stored a large amount of oil, the safety of the bases must be protected!
The warning message soon reached the Amal Oilfield. Neuer, the head of the Libyan oil base, and Klimu, the head of the Amal Oilfield, immediately issued an order: "Ready to ignite Burn it!"
The most important thing here is oil!
There are a large number of oil workers throughout the base. Now, their fate has long been linked to this place.
After receiving the order, the oil workers immediately became busy.
In the entire oil base, the most indispensable is oil barrels. Although the main oil is through pipelines, there is still a large inventory of oil barrels.
Now, many oil drums have been cut in the middle and turned into two halves.
These two halves of oil barrels were deployed to various pre-designed placement points in the desert. Now, they were filled with crude oil. The black viscous crude oil quickly filled half a barrel.
The most indispensable oil base is crude oil. Although an oil refinery has been built here to refine crude oil, it is mainly used for industrial equipment in Libya. The output is not very high.
Next, just wait for the order and light it!
This kind of fire is everywhere, not only next to the oil well, but also the surrounding desert area, covering a large area!
