Super military empire
Chapter 529: The Soviets Panicked
As the Iraqi Air Force dared not join the battlefield anymore, this small-scale war of armored forces, which was originally an encounter, ended with the Iraqi Tikrit Division retreating ten kilometers.
With regard to the outstanding performance of weapons and equipment from China, the war report of the meritorious frontline commander Ansar was directly submitted to the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps.The entire border was defeated, and the victory here shocked the entire Iranian high-level.
In particular, it has been less than five months since the formation of the Revolutionary Guards. Although many elites were selected from the old army, they have shown more combat effectiveness than the old army.This is very precious.
With the presence of this small force, the southern line of defense was basically stabilized.
"Because of the equipment provided by the Chinese? Their tanks are more powerful than the Soviet T72? Their anti-aircraft missile performance is very good? Why can't the anti-aircraft missiles provided by the Chinese show such high performance in other places?" Khomeini did not speak, he did not understand military.As the minister of defense appointed by him, Samnila is a roar.
Many of the weapons and equipment provided by the Chinese did not perform well, especially the hundreds of shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles they deployed in Ahwaz, which basically did nothing.
For Canon, a high-ranking officer from the old military system, he had long wanted to be washed away like three hundred senior military officials.
However, Khomeini has a very high trust in Canon.
We are investigating the misdeeds of Canon's China trip, especially many accounts are unclear. As a result, such good news came from the battlefield on the front line of Mahshahr Port.
"For such a result, we can ask the frontline commanders, especially Hojatyi, who was personally named by the Supreme Leader!" Canon shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
Facts speak louder than words.
Samnila has a small heart, but he has a great contribution to the victory of the religious revolution.Canon doesn't want to argue with him. If the Iran-Iraq war hadn't started, he would resign and leave the country!
"The Chinese weapons and equipment have shown their performance, I think there is no doubt about this. The biggest problem should be the troops that use weapons and equipment, especially the frontline commanders' knowledge and use of weapons and equipment... "As the commander-in-chief of the Iranian armed forces, Khomeini must not allow Samnila to continue purging the army at this time.
Although his behavior is very beneficial to the entire religious securities.
And now, after several months of cleaning, 300 senior military officers have been cleaned out, and more than 12,000 officers at the grassroots level have been cleaned, which has reduced the combat capability of the frontline too much, especially all kinds of advanced tanks and armored vehicles, and even artillery. They all performed very badly because of the lack of grassroots officers.
"The line of defense in the south has been stabilized. Let Hojatyi report to the capital!" Samnila saw the Supreme Leader open his mouth and could only give up.
In the first few days, the offensive went very smoothly. The powerful Iraqi army occupied a large number of Iranian territories, which made Saddam very happy.
But after he received the information from the southern front, his entire face almost turned pale.
The most powerful tank purchased from the Soviet Union was destroyed by the incompetent Iranian army in the encounter, and 7 were also captured. Not only that, but also lost several fighters.
This battle damage is of little importance to the results achieved by the Tekrit Division.
The reason why Mr. President got angry was because he didn't know what was destroyed by the other party.
How many such powerful tanks does the Iranian army have, and how many anti-aircraft missiles that can kill their advanced MiG-23 fighters? Where are the sources of these missiles, what model is it, and what is its performance? Iraq’s intelligence The personnel do not have the slightest information, and even Americans do not know the source of this information!
"What do the Americans say? They have been providing us with information. Why didn't this information exist before? Also, aren't the Soviets always boasting that their T72 is the most powerful tank and that no shells can destroy their frontal armor? Ram, can you tell me why this is?" Saddam could not help but not angry.
He gave all the rights of weapons procurement to his trusted military adviser Kanram, and Kanram is also a senior official of the Ministry of Defense, mainly in charge of the procurement of weapons and equipment and intelligence agencies!
Now that the war has broken out for so many days, the northern frontline air force has Iran's most powerful and the world's most powerful fighter F-14. Their ground forces cannot accelerate the attack speed of ground forces with the cooperation of air strikes.
The headquarters has already stood out a lot, and the results are even more obvious.
In the south, the attack was frustrated and only a few small cities were occupied.
If they cannot occupy Mahshahr Port, they will not be able to occupy Iran's rich oil resources. It is impossible to establish their hegemony in the Persian Gulf!
"Mr. President, the Americans deny that this is the military equipment they provided, and Western countries have also shown the same importance. The results of this battle have attracted the attention of the Soviets, and they have sent a team of experts here to evaluate. No one can accept the matter, especially the Soviets, unless these tanks are provided by the Americans..." Kanram was sweating profusely.
He couldn't explain this kind of thing.
The Soviets didn't know why their powerful tanks were so easy to explode. He had also seen how thick the main armor was. Even the president praised this powerful tank from the beginning.
Now, the myth of this tank has been shattered.
For this kind of thing, the mood of the US intelligence services is complicated.
The entire world, the CIA in the United States knows what the Iranian military’s weapons and equipment are even better than the Iranians themselves.
The Pahlavi dynasty has always been supported by the United States. Weapons and equipment were originally purchased from the United Kingdom and then turned to the United States. There was a trend of full militarization. As a result, the Pahlavi dynasty was overthrown by the son of Khomeini.
"Jimmy, is there any news? This tank cannot be produced by Iran itself! Where did they get it? There is also the kind of missile that can shoot down the MiG-23. The boss asks us to find out as soon as possible!" Before the war, a large number of American intelligence personnel gathered.
These intelligence personnel stayed here mainly to assist Iraq's operations, and by the way they had to collect intelligence.
"Boss, these tanks seem to have suddenly appeared on the battlefield here. The troops stationed in the army are all religious elements of the Revolutionary Guards, and our people can't reach them at all. However, according to analysis, these tanks and missiles are most likely to be the source. In China!" Jimmy said his own inference, "This shape, especially the turret design, is very similar to the m1a1 tank that has just started production in China. It is reported that some of the tank design schemes are from China..."
"This is impossible!" The head of intelligence suddenly jumped.
"China's backward technical equipment and technicians can only produce Soviet second-generation tanks. Now the backward technology and second-hand equipment of all countries in the world are very advanced for them..."
"Actually, our intelligence personnel and some officials of the Ministry of National Defense did obtain some related technologies from China. This is very secretive. Perhaps it is for this reason that I was mobilized here..." Jimmy said very disappointed.
At the beginning, he just said a few words casually because he was drunk, he was investigated for a long time, and then he was thrown into the middle east, a place where birds do not shit.
"If it is really Chinese, what should we do? We can't figure out the detailed performance of these tanks, and we can't get the specific parameters of that kind of missile..." The person in charge suddenly became embarrassed.
"Actually, this has no effect on us. It is the Soviet Union that should be frightened. The Soviets have been hoarding large-scale armored clusters on the Sino-Soviet border to threaten the Chinese. The Chinese tanks cannot resist, and their aircraft cannot resist. Responding to the penetration of various advanced Soviet fighters..." Jimmy said disapprovingly.
Now there is very good cooperation between China and the United States.
The United States wooed China to support China to share the pressure from the Soviet Union.
There is no conflict of interest between China and the United States.
At least, it didn't exist when the Soviet Union did not fall.Some secret cooperation, not too many people know.
"Then let the Soviets get headaches. But we must deliver our intelligence to superiors, and we must take the initiative, otherwise, don't want to get more funds!" The person in charge is very headache.
If these weapons come from China, then they need to do more.
Anyway, it is the Soviets who are panicking now.The most powerful weapons and equipment on the ground where they had an advantage became a piece of rubbish, and even the MiG-23, the main equipment, was easily knocked down.
Those bastards in Moscow should be the most terrified!
The most advanced tank in the Soviet Union is also the tank with the largest number of exports. Iraq purchases the largest quantity. If it is impossible to find out why it is so easily destroyed by Iran's backward tanks, it will be a disaster for the Soviet Union.
t72, is the main weapon exported by Soviet heavy equipment.
In November 1977, the Soviet Union made its debut at the Red Square military parade to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the October Revolution. It has only appeared in four years. The first actual combat appeared in such a result. Which country dared to continue mass production Buy this tank?
Kanram contacted Soviet personnel as soon as he learned the news, which caused a huge panic in the Soviet Union.
The Soviet Union’s financial situation was inherently bad. After the low-cost and good-performance tanks of the T34, the T64 had too many Soviet state-of-the-art technologies, and the cost of each was too high, so it could not be exported. The t72 is a tank with the same appearance as the t64b, and its interior is worlds apart.
Since its debut, this tank has received the attention of the whole world.
Even the Americans have to continue to develop new tanks to counter the pressure from the Soviet steel monster.
The Soviet Union officially declared that the t72 is an upgraded version of the t64. Although it has been simplified for the cost, it has more advanced performance, more fierce firepower, more flexible movement speed, and stronger defense.
Now, this myth is shattered.
"Let our intelligence personnel go all out. I want to know where Iran obtained these tanks! If it is an American, I will make them look good!" Saddam also knew that this kind of thing cannot really depend on the United States. .
The Americans have enemies with Iran, and the hostage incident in Tehran has not been properly resolved.
The Americans are known to the whole world.
They rose up because they sold weapons to the Allies while selling weapons to the Allies during the First and Second World Wars.
In the past, they supported Iran to attack Iraq, but now they have turned to support Iraq after Iran’s anti-water war. Saddam did not believe in the Americans.Even the Americans now provide them with a lot of intelligence.
The t72 was destroyed in an encounter with more than ten vehicles, and the damage of more than half of the war caused the bad effects not only to shock the Soviet high-levels, but also to the Tajik group. They were determined to create a world classic to inherit the honor of t34. , The huge order makes their life better than other production research groups.
Now in the Iran-Iraq War, a small-scale high-intensity encounter may result in the loss of orders in their hands. Before that, they must understand what caused it.
"If the Americans provide Iran with new tanks, this will have the greatest impact on the defense of the entire Soviet Union! The greatest damage, the Soviet Union’s pressure on Western countries, will disappear. Instead, Western countries will cause us to be powerful. Pressure!" Vasily Ivanovich Trikov, commander-in-chief of the Soviet Army, said to General Secretary Brezhnev very seriously after knowing this information.
"Then let the KGB people figure out the source of these tanks and understand their performance! If you are an American, you must specifically research out tanks that can counter them!" The old Brezhnev said about this kind of thing. It can't happen.
After more than ten years of hard work, the Soviet Union formed a huge advantage over the Western camp on land.
In the navy, the Americans have an advantage.
If their land advantage is gone, the Americans will lead the Western camp to crush them!
"The person in charge of Tajik must also personally understand what happened!" Cui Kefu gritted his teeth.
Originally, the Military Planning Committee asked the Tajik Group to improve the t64. They produced the T72. Now the development of the new generation of tanks is not going well. The Tajik Group must be asked to modify the T72 after it understands the performance defects of the T72. Upgrade, otherwise tens of thousands of T72 will become a target on the battlefield.
Once a war starts, it can't be held at all!
This is the reason for the most panic among the Soviet leaders.
After that encounter, in just five days, the Soviet expert team flew from Moscow to Baghdad, and then transferred from Baghdad to Basra.
