Now reading: Chapter 1415 - 1396th - : Thermobaric Bomb from Mercenary’s War, a Action novel by Just Like Water.

There is no wall or railing outside the villa. The architectural style doesn’t resemble the common suburban villas in Ukraine but rather looks like those Western European castles, giving an impression of height and solidity.

With a distance of four hundred ters and no cover, there are only about seven or eight people outside standing ard on alert, which is more or less sufficient for the security level of a gang leader.

Every visible enemy was wiped out after the first round of firing. Gao Yang shouted, "Little Fly, use the RPG-29 Thermobaric Bomb!"

The RPG-29 is reusable, with a 105 mm caliber, capable of being equipped with a night vision sight. There are two types of rockets available: the PG-29V tandem armor-piercing rocket used for both anti-tank and anti-bunker purposes, and the TBG-29V thermobaric rocket.

Besides RPG-29, Satan also brought many RPO-A Shemyer Cloud Burst Bombs.

Cloud Burst Bombs, also known as air fuel bombs, are similar to thermobaric bombs, which evolved from them and are considered an advanced version.

The principle of the Cloud Burst Bomb is relatively simple; the biggest difference from conventional bombs is that Cloud Burst Bombs require two explosions. The first explosion is a small one, used to disperse the air fuel to form a mist, followed by the second explosion, releasing a large amount of thermal energy instantly, creating a high-temperature, high-pressure fireball. The temperature usually reaches about 2500℃ and expands rapidly at a speed of 2000 to 2500 ters per second to achieve destructive effects.

Since the blast duration is tens of tis longer than that of ordinary explosions, the high temperature and high pressure penetrate the target for dozens of tis longer, so the destructive effects are much greater than those of regular bombs. Moreover, the Cloud Burst Bomb has another effect: the mist explosion consus the surrounding oxygen, causing severe anoxia within four minutes at the explosion site, which causes severe asphyxia and negative pressure effects on humans.

There is no difference in principles between thermobaric bombs and Cloud Burst Bombs; the only difference is in the charge. Thermobaric bombs use solid explosives containing an oxidizer, which makes them more powerful than fuel-air explosives.

Basically, to put it simply, thermobaric bombs or Cloud Burst Bombs are not very useful in open terrain, but in tunnels, pits, and fortified areas, they beco horrifying and devastating weapons.

Ever since Andre realized he had RPG-29 thermobaric bombs and Shemyer Cloud Burst Bombs in hand, he didn’t regard Mogilevich with much concern.

The only issue is that thermobaric bombs must be used in confined spaces to be effective, so whether the rockets can accurately hit Mogilevich’s house becos crucial.

Frey threw down an RPG-29 equipped with a night vision sight. His first shot was with an armor-piercing shell, but it didn’t really make a difference. Frey just wanted to send a greeting to Mogilevich, opening a hole in his house first.

He picked up a new RPG-29, carefully aid, and launched the rocket.

Gao Yang promptly turned the sight and his eyes elsewhere. First, he heard an almost inaudible explosion, followed swiftly by intense light illuminating the night sky, then a deep thudding sound, totally different from the crisp, loud explosion sound of ordinary bombs.

Andre rubbed his eyes vigorously but gleefully shouted, "My eyes, haha, this is a Thermobaric Bomb, damn it, it’s thrilling!"

Gao Yang felt that if the thermobaric bomb entered the house, the light shouldn’t be so intense. While observing with his gun raised, he shouted loudly, "Little Fly! You missed, huh!"

Frey apologetically responded, "Sorry, I hit the wall, oh, the windows have bulletproof glass, the glass didn’t shatter, alright, I’ll fire another round; get it in there."

Soone ran out of the house like swarms of bees, but the people coming out were indeed tactically adept. Their movents and asures indicated they were seasoned veterans, but unfortunately, the fighting style of rcenaries is quite different from that of gangs.

Glolov swept with the machine gun, while Gao Yang and Cui Bo started shooting with sniper rifles. Each person who ca out was killed, and after around ten people fell at the door, no one dared to co out again.

Whether it’s rcenaries or those who beca bodyguards for Mogilevich after retiring, since they were acting for Mogilevich, they would surely fight according to thods suited for him. A gang leader naturally prefers a shootout over a real battle.

Frey threw down the empty rocket launcher, picked up another one, and shouted loudly, "I’ll get a bit closer before firing!"

Gao Yang shouted loudly, "Big Dog, provide cover fire, advance all lines, assault team accompany Little Fly for close-range shooting!"

After speaking, Gao Yang shouted at Andre beside him, "Carry the rocket launcher and follow behind !"

The RPG-29 can be reused, price-wise, it’s not really expensive; normally, a launcher costs just five hundred US dollars, an armor-piercing rocket three to four hundred, and a thermobaric bomb the sa price. However, the production of these single-soldier thermobaric bombs is quite low, and the RPG-29 was only equipped starting from 1990; soon after, the Soviet Union replaced it. Thus, the production was very limited; although there was a significant outflow post-Soviet Union dissolution, compared to the RPG-7, which could be casually fired with almost no expense, the RPG-29 is incredibly rare in the international arms market.

Being rare naturally makes it expensive, and thermobaric bombs are incredibly hard to purchase. Those priced at several hundred dollars have risen to thousands per rocket on the military black market, becoming almost unobtainable.

However, Andre lacks many things but doesn’t lack weapons. A few hundred dollar launcher, a night vision sight even more expensive than the launcher, thermobaric rockets priced from one to several thousand each, he just throws them around like disposable items.

Frey is indeed using them as disposable items, firing one rocket and tossing one launcher; even if they run out, there are still hundreds more in the car behind.

After running out more than a hundred ters quickly carrying the rocket launcher, Frey knelt on one knee, aid accurately, and fired the rocket again.

This ti, the thermobaric bomb shot through the open door of the villa, then exploded inside.

The rocket exploded on the first floor, but the firelight surged to the second floor, and even the third floor could see the intense flash of the explosion. Flas gushed out from the first-floor windows. Although the glass was bulletproof and didn’t shatter, the entire pane was blown away by the strong shock wave. Mogilevich’s villa was so large that while the second-floor glass was mostly blasted away, the third-floor glass remained largely intact.

The villa is big; dozens of conventional rockets couldn’t take it down, but a single thermobaric bomb could clear an entire floor, which is basically sufficient.

When detonated in open air, it’s as effective as flatulence; in confined space, it’s a horrifyingly lethal weapon, and that’s a thermobaric bomb indeed. (To be continued.
