Chapter 1306: Special Bullets
/ Fairfax Hospital, Innova, is the largest hospital in the entire Washington metropolitan area. Since yesterday when a shooting patient was admitted, the security level has even been raised several notches. Big, sturdy men in black suits, headphones and sunglasses have taken over the hospital building. Passages, elevators, rest areas, there are such people interspersed with.
Most of them were in their thirties, white and black, Asian, and South Americans of Indo-European descent. They are all the same taciturn, and they all have amazing physique and athleticism. Their suits were bulging, and they were clearly carrying guns. Fools can see what these people do.
Of course, the hospital was a little surprised, but these people did not interfere with their normal work, and they were polite and respectful to others.
Of course, these people were all Black Island mercenaries who had rushed over from St. Kaiser, and the impact of this attack on Long Noon was so great that even the silver wolf put down all his work and arrived in person. The hospital was filled with mercenaries from military companies inside and out, making the FBI nervous, and they urgently asked to meet with the silver wolf.
So Silver Wolf Michelle went to negotiate with them, and everything here was handed over to Lin Rui.
Zhao Jianfei hurried over from outside, he said hello to Lin Rui, and said in a low voice, "How's the situation?"
"Very bad, the bullet penetrated the lobes of the lungs, there was no penetrating damage to the heart, but it should have been impacted. Doctors believe that the mortality rate in this condition is as high as sixty percent. It is still being rescued. Lin Rui said in a low voice.
"Damn it. Zhao Jianfei frowned and said, "How is the murderer investigated?"
"I don't have a clue yet. Lin Rui frowned, "We got some information, Cobain's team is helping us to investigate and analyze, and I believe there will be results soon." ”
"Do you think it will be those guys who did it?" Zhao Jianfei said through gritted teeth.
"The management committee? They do hate the dragon fat man, but assassinating him is another matter, because they also want to reach a consensus with us as soon as possible. Besides, no matter how stupid they are, they won't do anything on their own turf. Even if you want to kill someone, will you invite him to your house to do it?" Lin Rui shook his head and said, "This is not in line with their interests. ”
"Who could that be?" Zhao Jianfei frowned.
"No matter who it is, it's not small. Lin Rui handed an item to Zhao Jianfei, "Look at this ......"
"What is this?some kind of shuttle dart?" Zhao Jianfei frowned slightly when he held it in his hand, and suddenly his eyes narrowed. "This is an arrow with a tail. ”
Lin Rui nodded and said, "That's right."
。 Remember the lessons you gave me? The Advanced Combat Rifle in the early 80s, or ACR for short, research program. This is one of the planned products, the metal shell arrow projectile of the American company AAI. ”
In the early 1980s, the U.S. Army made a research program for the "Advanced Combat Rifle, or ACR", which planned to replace the entire army with a new rifle around 1995, which would greatly improve the soldier's first chance of hitting than if used. At that time, it was still in the stage of finalization testing.
In February '86, the Army Research, Development and Engineering Center at the Picatinny Arsenal officially issued a tender document, in which it was clearly stated that the combat performance should be doubled, and the soldier's chance of hitting could be increased by 100%, in fact, this plan was a new version of the salvo plan of the year, which was planned to increase the effectiveness by increasing the rate of fire, and this plan hoped to use more advanced ammunition technology.
They later signed multimillion-dollar first-phase research contracts with six companies, including AAI, Ares, Colt, McDonnell Douglas Helicopter (MDHC), West German HK and Austrian Steyr. In March, a second phase of the research contract was signed.
In April 89, the combat system test department of the Aberdeen test site selected four of the sample guns submitted by the six bidders for further comparison, these four candidates are: the United States Colt company based on the improved double-head projectile program, the German company HK based on the G11 caliber changed to 4.92mm caseless projectile program, the United States AAI company metal shell arrow projectile program, and the Austrian Steyr company plastic bullet countersunk arrow projectile program. McDonnell Douglas's AIS cluster missile proposal and Arres' AIS caseless projection proposal were both rejected.
Zhao Jianfei is an expert in light weapons, so he naturally knows these very well. Even Lin Rui's relevant knowledge was taught by him.
Surprised, Zhao Jianfei couldn't help frowning, "But I remember that the trial of the ACR program was suspended in 1990. Because through experiments, it was found that these new ammunition did not live up to expectations. For example, although the two arrow-shaped projectile schemes have high speed, they both have the problem of low accuracy, while HK's ACR caseless projectile has become very poor in accuracy at medium distance, so the plan has been suspended, and the relevant ones have been transferred to reserve. ”
"Clearly, someone is continuing this research from the end of the last century. Lin Rui pointed to the warhead and said, "At a range of about one kilometer, the other party used this bullet to penetrate a very thick bulletproof glass, and when the warhead hit the glass, the arrow-shaped bullet came out of the warhead, causing damage to the target." Similar to the principle of tank armor-piercing shells, only designed more precisely. ”
"It's not something that ordinary people can get, and even if this kind of bullet can be designed, it will not be able to be mass-produced due to cost issues. Small arms and light weapons depend on quantity, and the AK47 is the most successful example. Its performance is not the best, but the yield is huge. And once a weapon loses the possibility of mass production, it will not be further developed. No one would do such useless work. Zhao Jianfei frowned.
"The question is why did they assassinate Dragon Noon in such a way? If I'm not mistaken, they want to direct our attention in a certain direction. Lin Rui said slowly.
"Military-industrial production enterprises. Management Committee. Zhao Jianfei nodded and said, "AAI, which originally designed this bullet, is a subsidiary of United Industries Corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Textron Corporation. The business includes tactical unmanned aircraft systems, training and simulation systems, autonomous aircraft testing and maintenance equipment, weapons systems, logistics and engineering services, and other leading-edge technology solutions for aerospace and defense to the U.S. Army and allied forces. Customers include NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the University of Colorado, the Australian Defence Science and Technology Association, and many more. More importantly, they are one of the members of the Military Career Management Council. ”
Lin Rui nodded and said, "That's right, someone is trying to get us to point the finger at the management committee." At the negotiating table of the Governing Council, let our people, killed by special bullets produced by the military-industrial complex, one of the members of the Governing Council. ”
