These two planes belonged to formations that took off from Wahda AB (better known as as-Shoibiyah), and were underway to attack Kuwait IAP, along the route as-Shoibiyah - al-Faw - Kuwait IAP. The Su-22 belonged to the No.109 Squadron, and the MiG-23BN to the No.49 Squadron IrAF, and both fighters were flown by young 1st Lieutenants. Both planes were shot down around 05:00hrs, and the Iraqis found no trace of them subsequently. In reaction to activity of the Kuwaiti MIM-23B I-HAWK site at Bubyan, one of Su-22s from the No.109 Squadron IrAF (based at as-Shoibiyah AB), fired a single Kh-25MP anti-radar missile, forcing the site to shut down its radar. Although the IrAF has had Kh-25s since several years, it never used them against Iran, and this was the first combat firing of this weapon ever.

The results of this strike remain unknown. Later in the day, around 09:00hrs, when Iraqi special units arrived on Bubyan Island to capture the I-HAWK site, they found out that it was set on \"automatic\" mode of operation. The US contractor had fleed, leaving startled Kuwaitis to give up: they have just raised their hands on the sight of the first Iraqi.




걸프전 얘기인데


이라크가 쿠웨이트를 침공할 당시 쿠웨이트는 어디 섬에 패트리어트 포대를 짱박아 놨었음

이게 쿠웨이트 방공망의 절반이었는데 문제는 쿠웨이트 새끼들이 방공포대를 민영화 한거임

패트리어트 포대 전체가 포대장부터 쏘는놈까지 외국 군사기업 소속이었음

그래서 개전하니까 패트리어트 시스템을 자동 모드로 돌려놓고 전부 도망감

근데 문제는 자동모드가 작동을 존나 잘해서 이라크군 전투기랑 공격기 몇대를 떨구고 공역 진입을 막음

SEAD같은거 할 능력이 없는 이라크군은 그래서 초저공침투로 핼리콥터에 탄 특수부대를 투입시켰고

헬기 한대가 격추됐지만 성공적으로 섬에 진입한 이라크 특전부대는

텅텅 비어있는 무인도를 보고 띠용했다고






원글엔 패트리어트라고 되어있지만 호크였음
