Chapter 2288: Above the Snow Line
Lin Rui didn't feel anything about this. However, actuary Jiang An was surprised and said, "This is impossible!" The AN/TPY-2 radar has a detection range of up to 2,300 kilometers and a detection distance of 1,700 kilometers for a target with a radar reflection cross-section of 1 square meter. And this is part of the anti-missile system, which is expensive, and it has not been heard that NATO will deploy such anti-missile systems there. ”
"No anti-missile facilities have been deployed yet, but these two sets of radar equipment are enough to be a pair of eagle eyes that look down on everything around them. Frank whispered. "Of course, the main target is Russia. Therefore, the NATO command attaches great importance to this base, which is why this base will be directly included in NATO's advanced command system. ”
"How do you know this?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Don't forget that I am not only a member of the CIA, but also a member of Russian intelligence. This gives me access to a considerable amount of information. Frank whispered.
"So where is the goal of our mission?" Lin Rui frowned.
Frank clicked on his computer and switched to a 3D map. "This is the full picture of the interior of this base, and our goal is here. Frank gestured to a point, "This is the vault in the base command center. The things we're looking for are stored here, in a high-strength Kevlar synthetic chest. It will be taken out only in wartime and during major exercises. The integrated chip inside will be used to activate the NATO military's latest advanced satellite command system, SLS. That's what we're looking for. ”
"It's easy to do, it's just a box. Sergei shrugged, "It doesn't even take too many people, I'll just try to sneak in, and then wait for an opportunity to steal that box out." ”
"It's not that simple, and if it were that simple, they wouldn't have paid us a fortune. Crazy Horse shook his head.
Frank was silent for a moment, then nodded, "It's really not that simple. The box is very well kept, and the security is far greater than you can imagine. Moreover, the box itself has a self-destruct program, and once it detects that the box has left the base, it will initiate the self-destruct program, destroying the chips inside. ”
"Damn, what should we do then?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Use this after finding it. Frank took out a bracelet and handed it to Lin Rui.
"What is this, some kind of smart bracelet?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Yes, the most important thing is that this bracelet will constantly emit interference signals, which will make the internal program of this box misjudge. As long as you carry this bracelet, you can leave with the box, but be careful. The impact distance of this bracelet is only five meters. Once this distance is exceeded, the interfering signal weakens. If the induction device inside the box loses interference and senses a change in position, it will still self-destruct. Frank said in a deep voice.
"That is, once we get the box, we can't let it get within five meters of us. Otherwise, as soon as it leaves the base, the box will self-destruct and destroy the important chips inside. Lin Rui frowned and said, "Is that what you mean?"
"Yes. Frank whispered. "Another point is that we are not focusing on killing people in this mission. Instead, it's the box with the chip in it. Therefore, it is necessary to minimize unnecessary casualties and avoid the escalation of the problem. ”
"That's exactly what I want. Lin Rui nodded, "I don't want to be a butcher either." But if it affects the task, I will not be relentless when necessary. ”
"Of course. Frank whispered. "I will act with you and give you the necessary guidance. Rest assured, I will only provide assistance and will not interfere with your actions. ”
Lin Rui nodded, "Okay, distribute the map and intelligence to all the team members, and let's discuss the infiltration plan." As someone who knows more, you can also participate and give your opinion. ”
Frank nodded, sending the digital map and information to the team's tactical tablets, and they began to discuss the infiltration plan.
The situation at this base is very complicated, especially in terms of the way to infiltrate, which is a big problem. The cable car ride is certainly the easiest, but it's simply impossible not to be discovered. Because both ends of the cable car are guarded by NATO soldiers. Even if Lin Rui and others occupy the starting point of the cable car, if they want to take the cable car to the opposite side, it is impossible not to be discovered by the other side.
On the other side, if you notice that something is wrong, you can stop the cable car at any time. Once the cable car at a distance of several hundred meters in front and back is parked in the air, they simply have no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground, so they can only hang in the air and be shot at will. So this seemingly simplest solution is actually the most impossible to accomplish.
Shogishi also considered using a glider to glide and land near the base with the help of the updrafts between the valleys, but they calculated that this plan would be difficult to implement. Because of the wind direction and weather, they don't have a good chance of successfully gliding to the opposite side with their gliders. Helicopters don't even think about it, it's almost telling someone else - we're coming. For such a covert mission, it is simply self-exposed.
The slope of this cliff is so steep that even a professional athlete cannot complete it in a short time with the help of very advanced climbing tools. In some difficult places, it can take hours to reach your destination by climbing, and you may have to climb for a day or two.
Sergei said a little anxiously, "I think we may not be able to come up with a solution just by thinking like this, but we may be able to find some solutions by going to see it on the spot." ”
"No way, don't forget that there are NATO soldiers there. When the time comes, it will be even more difficult to alarm them. Crazy Horse shook his head.
"You Yankee, you're always at odds with me. Sergei shook his head.
"I'm telling the truth. "Crazy Horse doesn't show any weakness. "You're a bit of a brain, aren't you?"
Lin Rui waved his hand to stop their chatter. Lin Rui frowned and said, "I think we can start in other ways." There are a lot of personnel in this base, so what about their supplies? People need food and drink, equipment and electricity, oil, and these must always be transported to them for replenishment. Can we take this opportunity to think of a solution to their supply and transportation problems?"
"Their supplies were originally airlifted from large bases in other neighboring areas. Recently, however, as Montenegro officially joined NATO, its military has assumed responsibility for some of the base's supply shipments. After all, several other bases are farther away and more inconvenient to replenish. Frank whispered. "Are you trying to find a way to get rid of the supply transportation of the military in Montenegro?" Lin Rui nodded.
