In Chinese Sohu, approaches to US military bases in Iraq were called the “passage yard”

Installation, with which they fired at the American base


The Chinese portal Sohu presents an attempt to analyze the situation with missile attacks on US military bases in Iraq.



The author recalls that several days ago, as a result of shelling the Taji base, the American and British contingents suffered losses - three servicemen were killed and over 10 were wounded.

The Chinese author writes that this is far from the first attack by American military bases, noting that with each new attack the American contingent is facing ever greater damage, including the damage mentioned in manpower.

From the article:

The previous rocket attacks on the militants took place mainly at night: during the night hunt, the militants were able to stealthily and quickly approach the object for attack and also secretly and quickly leave the firing position. But in this attack, the militants did the opposite, choosing a different time of day. A good review allowed them to inflict significant damage, which showed the extreme pathology of all defense systems of American bases.

The author writes that the “extreme pathology” was found not only in the air defense system of the American military facility, but also in the security system of the quarters adjacent to the facility. It is noted that the militants were once again able to approach the base at the distance they needed along with the launchers, launch at least 18 missiles and quickly escape.

The author calls the approaches to the American military facilities in Iraq "a crowd area", which in the Russian interpretation sounds like a "passage yard".

From the material:
It went not only to ordinary buildings, but also to the underground headquarters. Explosions spread the roofs of concrete structures. Missiles missed a hole not only in the missile defense system of the base, but also in the American military image.

      Exactly what this is “an attempt to analyze.” But, unfortunately, the ideal “perimeter” has not yet been invented. You can recall the regular shelling of our bases in Afghanistan. And then we had the strongest army in the world!

      Few beat the American militants called the "US Army". Bombs would have been blown on them by the wind, or some kind of winged rocket accidentally got lost in the sky and covered them!

      And he always said that the US military budget should be equal to debt. I.e. There is candy, but for it you have to pay an astronomical amount. Or withdraw their bases where the Russian defense mines do not like

      Purely from an artillery point of view, an originally camouflaged disposable missile launcher can very close to the base. It’s just that it’s very large, this base and to hit it with serious damage - you need more launchers ... 5-6 cars And you need to choose the right moment. Morning divorce, for example ...

        Alternatively, you can use ATGM following the example of Cornet-EM.
        maximum range reaches 10 meters, and armor penetration - 000 millimeters. In addition to cumulative, there are also options with HE and thermobaric warheads.

        Available sighting equipment allows the use of weapons both day and night, and in addition to objects on the ground, also hit air targets.
        Recall that two years ago in Syria, in the Idlib region, a car was destroyed, in which there were militants of one of the terrorist groups. It was reported that the vehicle was hit by a missile launched by government forces and flying over 7 meters. Military experts believe that this is how this version of the Kornet was tested in real conditions.

      And the Pentagon today made a decision to urgently transfer the "patriots" to Iraq to protect their bases. And that I will make them "patriots" against such a simple but effective tactics of real patriots.

        Intercept the Iranian BR. And air strikes will be used against shelling. A month of intense bombing and shabmha will end. Iran runs out of money - so the coronavirus bites them.

          Something bad happened to intercept the Iranian BR from Patriot when they hit the American air base in Iraq Al-Assad.
          And they will use airstrikes against shelling.

          Iran can deploy a Khordad-15 medium-range air defense system in Iraq to protect it from aviation.

          Come on.

            What for us to fight with the USA? They have enough war with the whole Middle East, by the way, already lost in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria, and trade wars with the whole world - from Mexico with Canada - and to Europe, through China

            Is this an argument that the Americans actually have effective air defense, and the Chinese are wrong?

              Why weak? This is a logical question. If the US does not have air defense, why Iran will not destroy them after the elimination of its second person in the state ???
