Warlord: Red Alert Base, I challenge the whole world alone

Hans's Central Army Group established its headquarters in the Smolensk region, just over 300 kilometers away from Mosgrad.

There is also a large front-line military airport here.

This place originally belonged to Tsarist Russia. After being occupied, the Hans Air Force expanded it and can accommodate more than two hundred fighter planes of various types.

For example, more than 17 H-120E heavy bombers can be parked.

And today, this military airport close to the front line welcomed a special guest.

Twelve C-12 strategic transport aircraft flying in formation arrived at the Smolensk military airport.

The arrival of this C-17 strategic transport aircraft squadron brought great shock to the Hans Wehrmacht on the front line.

They thought the A919 jetliner they had seen before was big enough.

But when they saw the C-17 strategic transport aircraft, they found that the A919 passenger plane did not seem to be very big.

These 12 C-17 strategic transport aircraft carried a total of 700 tons of combat supplies.

The main things are food and winter supplies.

Hans has strong industrial capabilities and is able to produce large quantities of combat supplies. However, because the logistics supply lines are too long, there is not enough transportation capacity to transport these supplies to the front line, and they are all piled up in the rear.

Their main transportation capacity is used to transport fuel, weapons and ammunition, while food and winter supplies are given lower priority.

These more than 700 tons of food and winter supplies are a drop in the bucket for the millions of troops on the front line.

But the powerful strategic air transport capabilities demonstrated by the ancient country gave them hope.

Of course, Hans also paid the corresponding funds for the air transportation of supplies.

For paid aid, the Air Force also dispatched some transport aircraft to transport supplies.

Even the C-5 Galaxy strategic transport aircraft were deployed, and three C-5 Galaxy strategic transport aircraft squadrons arrived at Smolensk Airport on the same day.

These 36 C-5 strategic transport aircraft transported more than 3000 tons of supplies at one time.

Together with 48 sorties of C-17 strategic transport aircraft, more than 6000 tons of supplies were transported that day.

If we calculate based on the fact that each infantry division consumes 170 tons of supplies per day.

These 6000 tons of combat supplies can supply 35 infantry divisions.

The efficient transportation capabilities of the ancient country's strategic air force also made Hans see its huge potential.

While they were envious, they also had another idea in mind.

"What? Rent our transport planes to supply their frontline troops?"

Jiang Hua was a little stunned when he heard this request.

Of course, renting a transport plane does not mean renting the plane to Hans, but renting it together with the crew, and being responsible for losses and fuel consumption.

And during this process, the Hans people are not allowed to get close to the plane to avoid leaks.

To put it bluntly, it means hiring the ancient country's air force to help them transport combat supplies.

"If the Air Force withdraws some transport aircraft, will it have an impact on the Air Force?"

Situ Fei had already calculated it.

“Commander, don’t forget we still have old planes.

Whether it is the C-141, Il-76 or An-22, they are all sealed intact, and the transportation capabilities of these transport aircraft are not weak.

And we also have a large Air Force reserve of pilots.

My suggestion is to activate these old aircraft, give full play to their residual heat, and at the same time train mature flight crews for us."

The C-141 strategic transport aircraft has a payload capacity of 40 tons.

The Il-76 strategic transport aircraft has a payload capacity of 40 tons.

The An-22 strategic transport aircraft has a load capacity of up to 80 tons.

The performance of these two strategic transport aircraft is not weak.

These strategic transport aircraft will be eliminated only because of the more advanced C-17 and C-5 strategic transport aircraft.

Retired aircraft and reserve pilot teams were activated to assist Hans in front-line air transport missions.

First, it can make use of the residual heat of these retired and sealed aircraft.

Second, it can train a team of pilots.

The third is to be able to make money.

Fourth, it can expand the ancient country’s international influence.

It can be said that this is killing four birds with one stone. There is no reason for Jiang Hua to disagree.

"Then do as you say, but make sure it's safe.

Air defense missiles should be deployed near the front lines or at airports that are vulnerable to bombing."

It has long been no secret in the world that the ancient country is equipped with air defense missiles.

After all, air defense missiles have been used many times in wars.

However, they only knew about the existence of air defense missiles and did not know the specific technical details.

As long as the Hans are kept away, there is no need to worry about secret leaks.

In April, the ancient country had also prepared an all-round strategic attack on Tsarist Russia.

For this operation, the Air Force deployed more than 400 strategic bombers, totaling 38 strategic bomber squadrons.

This is also one-third of the number of strategic bombers of the ancient country's air force.

Currently, the ancient country's air force is equipped with more than 1300 strategic bombers of four types.

也就是新四剑客的图-22M3逆火、图-95、图-160以及B-52H战略轰炸机。

Among them, the Tu-22M3 Backfire strategic bomber has the smallest number, with more than 140 aircraft and a total of 12 squadrons.

The second most expensive and costliest aircraft is the Tu-160 White Swan strategic bomber.

The number of equipment is 264, totaling 22 squadrons.

Ranked second is the B-52H strategic bomber.

The number of equipment is 384, with a total of 32 flight squadrons.

The most numerous is undoubtedly the lowest-cost Tu-95 strategic bomber.

The number of equipment is 516, with a total of 43 flight squadrons.

The number of more than 1300 strategic bombers is a bit small compared to the tens of thousands of heavy bombers during World War II.

But these bombers are real strategic bombers.

In modern times, the United States was only equipped with 331 strategic bombers at its peak.

The main models are the B-52 and B-1 Lancer.

Before Jiang Hua traveled through time, there were only 158 of them.

From this number, we can compare how large the number of strategic bombers the ancient country had.

The annual maintenance costs alone are a considerable amount of money.

Fortunately, the ancient country has abundant and cheap fuel, so the cost of use is not too high.

It is not difficult to maintain such a large-scale strategic bomber fleet.

What's more, now is a period of world war that has swept the entire world. This is not the time to worry about the cost of use.

Among the more than 400 strategic bombers mobilized, most are Tu-95 and B-52H strategic bombers.

A large-scale strategic bomber campaign against Tsarist Russia's industrial cities began.

The first city to be hit by strategic bombers was the Russian capital of Moscow.

Mosgrad, which had already been reduced to ruins, was once again subjected to devastating bombing.

Compared with Hans' use of H-17E bombers, the ancient country's strategic bombing was much louder.

A large number of bombs fell from the sky ten thousand meters high like raindrops.

The Tsarist Russia's anti-aircraft artillery units were simply unable to intercept.

During this time they also launched Meteor jets for interception.

These Meteor fighters also came from the military aid of the United States and were the main force of the Tsarist Russian Air Force to intercept Hans bombers.

However, the strategic bomber groups of the ancient Air Force are all escorted by F-15E fighter jets throughout the journey.

These fighter planes also took off from the direction of Suiguan City, a total distance of 1500 kilometers.

For the F-15E fighter, it can cover the entire distance by carrying auxiliary fuel tanks.

The F-15E fighter is equipped with the more advanced AIM-120 medium-range missile.

Tsarist Russia was also facing the same strategic bombing as Fuso.

Defeating Tsarist Russia was not only to help Hans, but also for the national defense and security of the ancient country.
