Chapter 150: Missile Modification Torpedo Boats
Time, January 3, 1986. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Location, Barbados.
The climate in Central America is consistent throughout the year, and the Caribbean, as a tropical maritime climate zone, is not really cold at all. Barbados is a small country, as the easternmost point of the Lesser Antilles in the Eastern Caribbean, just over 100 miles south of Venezuela in South America, and even more so from Haiti and Cuba in the west.
Cool nights, a term that is not practical in Barbados, but it is more appropriate. Compared to the extreme heat during the day, the port area at night is cool enough to at least make people no longer fruitful, but put on a pair of coarse cloth pants.
For an island with a total area of only 400 square kilometers, how many harbors can there be?
You know, it is also the same area as Beijing's Chaoyang and Haidian districts, which are equal, not additive.
But a hundred kilometers is not a short time after all, at least for Alice's plans.
Somewhere in the middle of the night, calm waves are constantly surging, gusts of sea breeze are slowly blowing on the shore, and seabirds are constantly chirping in the sky.
Two Humvees slowly drove up to the dock, creaked to a stop, and several men and two girls quickly stepped out of the cars. It was Ducky, Mr. Akaman, Alice and Maiya, and then James who was purely soy sauce.
In front of them, a large shadow took up a large part of the space, and a military ship was quietly docked here.
"My God......"
With flip-flops, beach pants and colorful shirts, Dadge took off his sunglasses in amazement, and grew a drooling mouth like a sai wolf seeing a delicate snow-white lamb.
"Missile boats! Missile boats! Damn Alice, didn't you mean torpedo boats? Where did you get missile boats?"
If it weren't for his well-trained years of military career, Daqi would have opened his mouth and screamed!
The specific details of the ship in front of him are not yet clear, but Daqi has already seen the obvious missile launcher at a glance. If you buy a high-end ship-to-ship missile, you can easily knock down a huge warship of nearly 10,000 tons with just this small ship!
"Haha, Ducky, I knew you would say that. ”
The pilot was none other than Mr. Akaman, who pointed unhurriedly at the dock, and under the moonlight, the huge body of the ship had sharp edges and corners, full of the steel temperament of a man!
"If you take a closer look at the tonnage of this ship, is this the size of a missile boat?"
In this way, Daqi calmed down slightly, and after coming back to his senses, he did find an abnormality.
True, the tonnage of this missile boat is too large.
As a matter of fact, missile boats are to torpedo boats, which are typical of their small size, just as missile destroyers are to traditional giant artillery battleships. Generally speaking, even large missile boats have a displacement of 600 tons at the highest level, and the length is only more than 50 meters; the displacement of small missile boats is only a few dozen tons, the length is only 20 or 30 meters, and the height is probably more than 2 meters.
And the torpedo boat is different, as Ducky immediately distinguishes this one, its displacement seems to have reached the level of a thousand tons!
"Wait, wait, what the hell is going on?"
With the help of Maiya's flashlight, after seeing the appearance of this ship thoroughly, Dachi was completely confused: "This is obviously a torpedo boat, and it is the largest kind, even the torpedo tubes are there." But how did this pop up with another missile launcher?"
"Hehe, it seems that Daqi's IQ has dropped~"
Alice giggled, took out a paper fan from her pocket and shook it, looking like she was chattering: "This is the private property of a friend of Uncle Ackman, he is a master of transformation, you see right, he is a combination of torpedo boats and missile boats." ”
Daqi smacked his lips, the ship had already prepared a gangway, he climbed up in three or two clicks, and immediately checked all the details of this big guy in detail.
The missile launcher was installed on the torpedo boat, and at the same time a well-developed launch system was pressed in the cockpit, although it was not an exaggerated thing like a phased array radar, but for individual smugglers, this was already an exaggerated piece of equipment!
"I can't afford a few millions. ”
Daqi never stopped the tsk in his mouth, and kept observing around the ship, looking inside and out. A torpedo boat with a displacement of 1,000 tons is not a small thing, because this means at least several hundred tons of cargo. What could be better for individual smuggling?
"It has a range of 1,000 nautical miles, but just fill the warehouse with fuel and make stops all the way, and you'll be able to drive slowly from Central America to Thailand. ”
With the bright light bulb in the cargo hold, Mr. Akman unfolded the map for Ducky: "Look, we're in Barbados now. It's not too far from Cape Verde in West Africa, and although it's already a transoceanic voyage, this boat has enough fuel to get there. ”
Daqi touched his chin and nodded: "Then follow the African continent all the way north, from Gibraltar into the Mediterranean, and after crossing the Suez Canal, you can follow the Maritime Silk Road all the way to Thailand!"
Alice whistled loudly: "If we come across something worth carrying on the road, maybe we can make extra money!"
But then, Ducky figured out something was wrong.
"Wait, Akaman, can't you just get me a ship in Southeast Asia......? Good fellow, let me drive a torpedo boat halfway around the world!??"
The last blow was earth-shattering, and Ducky roared and slammed his fist into the bulkhead, causing the corners of James' eyes to jump.
"Half the world, man! This is not a battleship cruiser, this is a torpedo boat with a load of 1,000 tons! Do you think that the shipbuilder's designed range is only because of the limited fuel tank? Such a small ship, just me, are you forcing me to be Robinson!?"
Everyone laughed, and Akman hurriedly calmed Daqi, and said with a smile: "That's why you take the coastal route, if Alice really buys you a big ship, then it needs to be so complicated, just cross the Pacific Ocean?"
Ducky snorted, stepped forward, and patted James on the shoulder: "Man, this is not a little guy, you really handed me this multi-million dollar baby?"
"It's all called her big baby, isn't it yours?"
Alice grinned and followed, "Is it Dad?"
James shrugged simply: "Compared to your upfront investment in 'Oscar & Hannah', what are these millions? Anyway, "Brain Cell Invasion" is about to be completed, and it will definitely be tens of millions of dollars in money by then, right?"
Ducky blinked.
"Wait? What's that? Brain Invasion? Isn't that a new movie that DreamWorks has been promoting for two months?"
I saw that he was confused at first, and then suddenly realized: "Ah, by the way, Alice-Wang! You are the director of "Ghost Shadows" that everyone has been rumoring, right?"
"Ahh
The topic changed too quickly like a tornado, one second, everyone was still mysteriously discussing the smuggling route, and the next second they actually ran to such a place. Not to mention Maiya and James, Alice blinked, but she didn't react for a while.
"Oh, uh, uh, uh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, I'm who you say you are. ”
This time, Daqi blew a long whistle, and the only remaining anger on his face suddenly vanished, replaced by a full look of amazement: "God, I have become an employee of a genius little girl." is a director and an author, and now he still wants to play smuggling...... I said, Alice, don't you think your career spans too much?"
"Daqi~"
Alice smiled and patted Ducky on the shoulder, "What is the most important thing in the 21st century, do you know?"
Everyone shook their heads together, the only difference was that James was smiling, Maiya was picking the corners of his mouth, and Mr. Ackman and Dudge were looking like they were asking for advice.
"In the 21st century, talent is the most important~!"
I saw the girl slamming on the shoulder of Daqi, laughing and saying: "High-IQ crimes will become the mainstream of the world, and the more successful people are on the surface, the stronger they will be when they commit their crimes!"
Akman nodded: "Yes, just like our founding fathers of the United States, if Washington's uprising had failed, or in other words, he would have been just a traitor from the perspective of the British." Can put ......"
"Hey, man, that's not a good example. ”
James stopped Akaman's mouth with a smile: "It should be said that way, it's like ......"
"Stop, stop, don't think that because I'm Greek, I like to listen to historical stories, you still have to keep that little thing to torture students, I don't want to hear it!"
"I haven't even said anything yet, you wait until I'm done ......"
"Don't think I don't know your coaching style at UCLA, Maiya has a cousin in ......"
"Oh yes, Maiya, you're going to be in the twelfth grade this September, do you want to go to UCLA? Uncle suggests you choose the history department, although it doesn't have to be my American cowboy major......
"What do you mean, James-Wang!??, let my daughter learn that kind of thing that I don't know?"
"What do I mean? I don't mean anything? What can I mean? What do you mean? Cowboy history is not interesting? Cowboy history is interesting! Do you mean that cowboy history is not interesting? Do you mean that? What do you mean by such an expression? Do you think ......?"
Ducky looked at the two arguing with a cute expression.
Alice let out a long sigh.
Maiya also let out a long sigh of relief.
The two girls glanced at each other, both helpless.
How come the adults of these years are a little two? (To be continued.) )
