Chapter 1251 Those dazzling weapons and equipment in the war
At 8:[-] p.m. on August [-], Laos and the United States, after urgent consultations, launched the "Desert Shield Operation" defensive operation to prevent Iraq from invading Saudi Arabia.Two old US Navy fleets headed by USS Howell and USS Dooley entered the battle zone.And reinforcements from various overseas military bases and from the mainland are continuing to arrive in response to Babylon's actions.

At the same time, on August 14, when the appointment was made, the United Nations National Security Council adopted Resolution 0, which condemned Babylon for violating the UN Charter and required it to withdraw its troops, with 660 votes in favor and 11 votes against.The United Nations National Security Council successively passed 1 resolutions condemning and sanctioning Babylon, and 678 resolution (No. 678) authorizing the use of force against Babylon.These resolutions put Babylon in an extremely isolated position in terms of politics, economy, military and diplomacy.Among them, Resolution No. [-] stipulated that the deadline for Babylon to withdraw its troops was January [-], [-].If Babylon does not withdraw its troops before the deadline, the resolution authorizes UN member states to use "all necessary means" to implement various resolutions passed by the UN.

On August [-]rd, in response to this time, the two major powers in the world, the United States and the Soviet Union, held urgent consultations. Finally, the two sides reached a consensus and issued a "Joint Statement", demanding that Babylon "unconditionally withdraw its troops from Kovet", " To fully restore the sovereignty, legal regime and territorial integrity of Kovet".This is completely consistent with the policy goals of the old United States towards Babylon.At the same time, stop the supply of weapons and military aid to Babylon.On the same day, the Arab League also issued a resolution condemning Babylon's aggression and demanding that Babylon withdraw its troops.However, in response to the eagerness of world powers, the resolution of the Arab League also calls for the resolution of the conflict within the Arab League and warns against external interference.

As time progressed, more and more information and details were leaked.For example, this war, Babylon’s operation, actually started preparations a long time ago, including several targeted offensive and defensive drills, as well as the purchase of related weapons and equipment.

And at the same time, a company's name began to be mentioned in articles by major media, that is Jiang Chen's Western Industry Company.However, in view of the relationship between Western Industrial Company and B17 Factory, foreigners merged the two companies together and called them Western Industrial Company.The reason is that the advanced equipment used in this Babylonian army operation, especially the all-terrain assault vehicles and Zhanhu off-road vehicles equipped by its leading assault force, performed outstandingly in this battle, It is eye-catching.

These two vehicles are very suitable for the combat environment in this region.The first is the all-terrain assault vehicle. This vehicle has a relatively light body and a relatively simple structure. Its special design makes it very passable in this desert terrain.And the speed is very fast, which is very suitable for quick assault operations.The vanguard of Babylon also used this assault vehicle to surprise the Kvit army with its high passability and speed.And quickly tore a hole in its defense line and broke in.

Then there is the Zhanhu off-road vehicle, although this off-road vehicle is not much different from ordinary vehicles.But it is a general-purpose off-road vehicle specially used in the war environment. Its superior mobility and off-road ability have become the light cavalry and signal soldiers in the entire Babylonian army.It is interspersed between various battlefields and has played a very important role in the development of the entire battle situation.Of course, with its excellent protective performance, the Babylonian army also used this off-road vehicle as a light armored transport vehicle to transport troops to the battlefield, or assigned it to infantry, to cover armored units, and so on.

And the weapon systems equipped on these two vehicles, especially the "Shadow Break" series of anti-tank missiles, can be said to have made a splash on the battlefield. Basically, because the excitability of this vehicle is so good, the assault speed is relatively fast, This once made the follow-up troops unable to keep up with the rhythm. Although the Kvit army is very good, it still has a certain strength. Therefore, when encountering armored vehicles of blocking troops or blocking fortifications, the "Shadow" series of anti-tank missiles played a very important role. big effect.This missile has a long range, relatively good maneuverability, and high accuracy, so basically along the way, a large number of armored vehicles and fortifications were destroyed by this missile, which can be said to be harmless.

Then there is the vehicle-mounted [-]mm grenade launcher and the six-barreled [-]mm Gatling machine gun. Although these two weapons are nothing unusual, they are brave on the battlefield.Especially in terms of suppressing the firepower of the enemy's living targets, these two weapons can be said to be artifacts.Relying on the heroic performance of these two weapons and equipment, the Babylonian army quickly wiped out the resistance forces along the line and quickly disintegrated the resistance confidence of the Babylonian army.

In addition, it is the equipment used by the Babylonian special forces this time, and the performance of the Babylonian special forces this time is also extremely dazzling.Because people didn't know at the beginning, from where they directly infiltrated into the kingdom of Kovet.However, judging from the information disclosed later, they borrowed the power parachute and power delta wing produced by Jiang Chen and the others to infiltrate through the desert area on the border with the neighboring country, and quietly escaped the detection of Kovet. Then suddenly appeared in the capital of Kuwait.

And in the following battles, the combat equipment of the Babylonian special forces was also very dazzling.First of all, there are two sets of combat uniforms specially designed by Jiang Chen for the Babylonian special forces. One is a four-color desert camouflage combat uniform for combat in desert terrain, and the other is for night and city assaults. Combat black combat uniform.What's more, there are bulletproof helmets and bulletproof vests. These are also products produced by Jiang Chen and his company, and their protective performance has reached the level of the same type in the West.

Then there is the wearable monocular night vision device for night combat, which is an important equipment for night combat.There is also a set of team command and communication system. This set of equipment was originally only equipped with wolf lair special operations troops, and was gradually equipped with other troops of our army later.It was only later approved to be put into the international market, and the Babylonian special forces were one of the earliest users of this communication system abroad.

Next is the weapon system. The BZ82 team weapon system used by it is much more advanced than the weapons used by the Kvet military and police.Therefore, in the battle, the Kovet military and police basically had no resistance.It is precisely because of the excellent performance of these series of weapons and equipment, coupled with the honing of the Babylonian special forces in the war with Persia over the years.That's why they, an army of less than a hundred people, were able to continue fighting for four or five hours in the country where Kovet was heavily assembled, until the Babylonian attacking troops came to meet.
