The Soviet helicopter fleet was soon "drown" in layers of smoke... They didn't have time to escape because they were in the canyon, there were only three roads to go, up, forward, or backward.
Going up is undoubtedly the best choice. Just pulling up can quickly get rid of the smoke, and the safer it will be... Everyone knows this, but unfortunately this road has been blocked by us with stone rain.
It's right.
In the future, it may be a feasible choice... but in fact this is the most dangerous. The reason is that this canyon is very narrow for a helicopter group. Once you turn around, it is easy to have an impact accident, not to mention... in the future, it will
There is a process of hovering and turning the head... This process takes not a short time, and there are sprayed gravel everywhere on the top of the head... So if you do this, it is more likely that you have not had time to turn around yet.
The plane has been destroyed and people have died.
So the smart Soviet pilot chose to continue moving forward... It would be better to fly into the smoke than to be killed by rocks!
But reality is often cruel... They soon discovered that moving forward is actually not much better...
First of all, such a huge group of aircraft flew into the smoke and was still in the narrow and curved canyon, which is quite dangerous... This is also one of the reasons why helicopters rarely set off at night... Although helicopters have spotlights to search for targets,
The high and low high ground in Afghanistan is like reefs for helicopters in the night. In addition, the helicopters fly fast, so they will accidentally hit the reef and die.
Now the crew flew into the smoke... In fact, it was even worse in the dark than in the dark... There was at least a spotlight when flying in the dark, and even the spotlight when flying in the smoke was too
It can't play a role anymore.
So the Soviet pilots could only hand over their lives to God... or rely on their own experience and flight skills to find a glimmer of hope in this...
However, I will not let them live so well... There is a saying among Chinese people: "Blowing the dog in the water". When the dog falls into the water, it will take its life. Otherwise, when it gets up, it will have it.
The ability to resist.
I still understand this principle...so I quickly issued another order: "Battle!"
"Blow!" Zhao Jingping shouted at the walkie-talkie: "Bow me hard!"
The explosion sounded quickly... This time it was not just a stone rain. The stone rain was indeed very useful... a pack of explosives can lift a large piece of stone. But the problem is that it cannot be endless.
Fry... Prepare a row of explosive packs in the same section, and it will be almost done with three blows between them. By the fourth time, there is nothing to explode.
So at this time we want to add a little effect...mortar!
Using a mortar to strike a helicopter? This may be a bit exaggerated, but in this specific condition, it is not an exaggeration at all... The reason is that just install time leads to the mortar shells and then calculate the time... Then these are forced
The shells fired by the guns will explode in the air, which is the air explosion we have played before.
The difference is... the air explosion used to be targeted at infantry, but now the air explosion is targeted at Soviet helicopters.
Moreover, the time lead of these mortar shells is set at the height of the Soviet helicopter or exploded above them... In this way, the result can be imagined. If the shells exploded near the helicopter, then
The shrapnel and shock wave will undoubtedly cause great damage to the helicopter. If it explodes above the helicopter...the shrapnel will undoubtedly cause a goddess to scatter flowers.
What's even more amazing is... If these shells hit the cliffs on both sides, it would bring out another rain of stone... So there was a bloody rain of fire in the canyon full of smoke. Sometimes the rumbling of shells, sometimes the
The whistling of shrapnel, and the explosion of the helicopter crashing into the ground...
Although we can't see anything, we can only imagine that the helicopter group here will not have any good ending... They are like a group of flies trapped in the canyon and smashed them with shells and stones...
Helicopters can be said to be very fragile in this situation. Anywhere to hit the smoke or spiral paddling on the rocks will cause serious consequences, so I really can't believe that there are several helicopters that can be complete.
Fly out of this trap.
But I soon knew there were... but not many, there were a total of forty helicopters entering this valley... of which 8 to 30 meters and 24 meters. There were only six meters...4 meters and 8 to 4 meters.
, 24 meters and 24 meters!
When I saw these six helicopters successfully escape from the smoke-filled valley... I couldn't help but secretly admire the skills of these Soviet pilots... I was thinking at that time. If I were flying a helicopter, I encountered this
If there is any situation, I am afraid I will be so scared that I will be at a loss. How can I find a way to find a way for myself!
But they just found it... except for two helicopters that looked injured and blasted with black smoke, the rest could almost be said to be unscathed!
Later I learned from the inside of the government army... The successful escape of these helicopters was not accidental. They immediately determined that the main danger came from the top... In fact, this was already obvious after the first round of stone rain.
, So these helicopter pilots look for the concave parts in the middle in the cliffs on both sides in the shortest time... There are indeed many such places on cliffs. The problem is to find such a place in such a short time and
Not easy.
But these pilots did it... It sounds simple, but I know that it requires a calm mind, super fast reaction speed and super psychological quality to do it.
After finding such a place... they drove a helicopter and hovered there motionlessly, letting the stones outside explode and then they only did one thing... that is to do their best to stabilize the helicopter
.
Finally, they finally waited for the explosion to stop... At this time, our explosive packs had been blown up and the shells were almost consumed. There was no way, so we had to stop. The smoke had not completely dissipated... So these few
The Soviet pilots drove the helicopters all the way up with their previous impressions, and drove out of the narrow valley "huhhuh".
Of course, at this time, they had no parachute or continued fighting. After finding the right direction, they flew straight to Kabul...
This battle can be said to have shocked all the Soviet troops, including the Soviet troops hovering at high altitude and the armored troops on the ground.
This battle completely defeated their confidence in continuing to fight... But our offensive has just begun! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
