"Steelhammer, how are the preparations for this operation going?"

Accompanied by the steel hammer and the small machine Qì man Wali, Chen Xin came to the underground base and had just finished renovating the computer center.

The computer center is extremely spacious, with an area of nearly 800 square meters and a height of more than 10 meters, the most eye-catching thing is a circular metal control platform with a diameter of about 15 meters in the center, and above the control platform is a circle of transparent touch monitors, dozens of seats are distributed around it, Chen Xin sat down on the soft chair in the main seat, and the steel hammer and WALLI stood on either side of him.

The floor is surrounded by soft light, and the floor is made of a circle of high-strength bulletproof glass, through which you can see a huge rectangular space below, about 40 meters high, divided into two floors, with an area of nearly 1,000 square meters.

This is the equipment manufacturing workshop in the underground base, fully automated and intelligent operation, after the completion of the construction, it will have a set of metal battery production line with a daily output of 20 tons, a fully automated 3D printing workshop, and a small wafer production line and integrated circuit etching equipment, steel and iron are even ready to manufacture two hundred industrial machines with different divisions of labor to replace the work that cannot be completed by some automated production lines.

According to Steel, once this workshop is built, its manufacturing capacity will be 50 years ahead of the current industrial level of mankind.

It's a pity that the small actions of the Americans made Chen Xin temporarily delay the construction of the base, and he could only temporarily devote all his resources to his new plan.

"Lao Dou, the action plan has been almost done, and the flight route has been preliminarily planned. ”

A few clicks on the touchscreen display above the steel tamper. The center of the control instantly darkened.

A magical scene appeared, only to see a circle of soft light projected in the ring of the metal control platform, and countless points of light continued to accumulate in the sky above the ring, and finally gradually formed a holographic earth projection with a diameter of nearly ten meters.

White clouds, blue seas, yellow and green land, ice sheets of the North and South poles.

In the darkness, this beautiful blue and white planet slowly rotates around its axis of rotation, and the land, the sea, the forests, the deserts, the mountains, the grasslands, and the illuminated cities, all come to life. It's like a natural thing.

"Holy!"

Even Chen Xin is accustomed to the charm of holographic projection. But the first time I saw such a huge and realistic image of the earth, I was still so shocked that I couldn't speak.

This moment, what 3D movies, what virtual reality. Completely weakened in front of it.

The steel hammer flashes with electronic eyes. is very proud of Chen Xin's gaffe. said: "Old Bean, how about this holographic projection I designed?

Chen Xin gave a thumbs up and exclaimed: "Awesome, it's really awesome." ”

If you use this technique to make a movie. I'm afraid all the studios will have to go out of business.

No one can say no to this visual treat.

Fortunately, Chen Xin only admired it for a while, and then said to Gangyi: "Gangyi, let's talk about our action plan this time." ”

Gangyi laughed, pointed to the earth in the void, and continued the topic just now: "Old Dou, look, this is Tucson City, Arizona, USA, and this is Mogadishu, Somalia......"

On the virtual earth, the two places mentioned by the steel hammer are lit up separately, and a red dotted line connects the two.

Tucson, Arizona, United States, nestled in the speckled desert of the southern Rocky Mountains, is the closest U.S. city to Mexico.

Its name is derived from the Indian word meaning "spring at the foot of the Black Mountain". Many years ago, the Santa Cruz River used to flow here, but it has long since dried up, so it is called the "Land of Few Springs".

The target of the operation was Davis Monson Air Force Base, also known as the "Aircraft Graveyard", located on the outskirts of the city!

When Chen Xin was considering the formation of an air force in the war, the first thing that came to his mind was this famous base that represents the heritage of the US aviation industry.

Vess-Monson Air Force Base is both a U.S. air base and the military's aerospace repair and maintenance center.

In the vast desert of the base, 4,200 decommissioned and mothballed aircraft of the US military are stored.

Back then, when Chen Xin was a high school student, he drooled at the rags at Davis Monson Air Force Base.

The F-14, F-15, F-16 and other third-generation fighters retired and mothballed by the US military were completely the top combat power for the Chinese Air Force at that time, and the C-5 "Galaxy" and B-52 "Stratofortress" were a generation of famous aircraft, which were simply artifacts.

Even today, the Chinese Air Force still does not have aircraft of the Galaxy or Stratofortress class.

Although it is said that these military planes are placed here so that they can be reused one day, due to the US Air Force's habit of liking the new and hating the old, no aircraft have been reused here since the cemetery was established.

Only the development of new aircraft can be favored by congressional appropriations, and it is impossible to rely on old aircraft for money.

So from the point of view of weapons manufacturers and politicians, no matter how good the aircraft is, it will have the fate of being eliminated, and money is the main factor.

Every plane sent here has to dismantle vulnerable parts and expensive instruments, and drain the "blood of the plane" - fuel, hydraulic oil and other liquids, the windows, doors, and hatches on the fuselage are sealed with protective materials, and the cockpit glass is tightly covered, otherwise it is easy to be aged and yellowed by the strong desert sun, but the hatch in the belly of the aircraft is opened as much as possible to avoid excessive air pressure in the aircraft.

Most of the planes sent here ended up as "spare parts suppliers" and were eventually dismantled in pieces, and a few lucky ones, like the C-130 transport plane, were refurbished and sold for civilian use, such as fire extinguishers.

But there were also planes designated here to "kill heads", and a large number of B-52s fell victim to nuclear disarmament treaties, dismembered and lined up for Soviet satellite photography.

Some of the mothballed aircraft are also sold abroad, and the four E-2Ts approved by the United States for sale to the Takajima TW in 1993 were converted from the cemetery.

This base is completely a huge treasure trove to be developed for Chen Xin, who has a steel hammer, and Chen Xin didn't think about attacking it yet, after all, the movement is too big, and it is easy to poke the hornet's nest.

But since Ao Guanhai is not authentic first, Chen Xin is not welcome.

These are regarded as tattered old goods by the U.S. military, and they can be an excellent source of Air Force aircraft for the Strategic Fool Bureau.

The only difficulty is how to get them to Somalia silently, which is what Chen Xin and Gangyi have been doing for the past week. (To be continued......)
