Chapter 545: Kara's Choice
The sun was setting on the horizon, and the sun was only left for the last few minutes. 『』【Mobile phone users directly visit wènm.dashubao】
The afterglow of the sunset shines through the front windshield of the cockpit, shining a strange spot of light on the head-up display, which is very dazzling. Kara didn't pull up her goggles, she wanted the deck ejection commander to see her eyes, a pair of resolute and undisguised eyes. Otherwise, she was worried that the other party would find out the secret hidden in the bomb bay of the fighter.
In the waters near Christmas Island in the eastern Pacific, under the southern horizon in the shadow of the whooping ghost, the ghost carrier USS Washington is slowly cruising. According to the records of the First Sino-Japanese War, the ballistic missile anti-ship bait-by-attack battle that was supposed to be destroyed on the central continent during the Second Battle of Okinawa in the First Sino-Japanese War never appeared in people's eyes again.
In fact, the supercarrier had already been covered in a black veil during the First Sino-Japanese War: during the war, the ship pretended to disobey military orders and rushed to the aid of the task force Stennis Stennis, but it did not come close, until a ballistic missile swarm rained down from the sky like a meteorite, and the friendly forces were almost completely annihilated. The USS Washington retreated from the chaos and returned to its homeland for a major refit as the successor to the American version of the Centurion B72.
In the Arnold incident that just ended, the mystery of the take-off and maintenance of the three B72s, Arnold's handling of these doomsday planes, and the reason why Tronpu was able to control the situation are all here.
The current USS Washington has long since changed its appearance: huge electronic warfare antennas are deployed on both sides of the board for all-weather deception jamming; The hull and bridge are fully attached to the optical infrared camouflage film, which was developed before the war and used in large quantities during the war, which can change the color according to the external lighting environment, so that the body can visually disappear or change the shape.
The overhauled ghost carrier USS Washington has become a real ghost, covering its former face with a black veil. No one knows what happened to this giant ship, and no one can recognize her as the invincible superfleet-type aircraft carrier USS Washington.
On the foredeck, an F24 Tomcat II carrier-based fighter has taxied to the catapult take-off position, and the nose landing gear hook is down, tightening the ejection slide.
If it is usual, this is already ready to fly, ready to catapult and take off at any time.
But this time the atmosphere was different, as if there was a strange dark cloud hanging over the foredeck. In the flower-room-shaped semi-buried ejection control room next to the ejection rail, several staff members in golf shirts and jeans are talking to each other, as if discussing something, and one of them takes off his sunglasses from time to time to peek in the direction of the F24 cockpit that is ready for ejection.
In the cockpit was Caraquette Green. Her F14 Type 991 had been lost, and the old cat had completely blown up into a fireball as it slammed into the Papal Palace during the Battle of Fort Leavenworth. But this brave suicide crash saved Bill the head wolf and the main employees of Prince, and Bill promised to pay her the company's best product, the F24. As for Kara's stealth plane pilot qualifications that need special approval as a safari mercenary, the former American Comrades Association will also be able to pass Guò.
If it weren't for the plane's high stealth capabilities, she wouldn't have been able to board the ship.
The ghost carrier USS Washington has no secrets for Caravert Green, which was supposed to be the mothership of the Vespa Combat Team. After the end of the First Sino-Japanese War, the American-made Whoopers B72 support facilities that remained on the ship were used as a tool for further research. At that time, Tromp was not yet the chairman of the Pan American Entente, and he mastered the aircraft carrier with the assistance of Bremerton accountants. At the same time, another person also found Chuangpu for this ship, that is, Shi Yi, the founder who had just come to Qianmei and carried the technology of the Hundred Day Ghost. Chuangpu and Shi Yi both need a hundred day ghosts, so they cooperate with this ship as the core.
For the trial, the USS Washington needed a large number of pilots to serve as volunteers, and these people had to be loyal and highly skilled.
It was against this background that the Vespa Combat Team was formed. Female pilots who had been marginalized during the war and who had difficulty surviving social discrimination after the war were drafted here. They thought they had found a home to live in, but in fact they were donors for a simulation test of the whooping ghost system. It is said that they are the food of the evil spirit.
Not long ago, Bob, who had landed here by mistake, had witnessed Lee being "sucked dry" by the Whooping Day Ghost system, who was like a man who had crawled back from hell, a living dead. Lee was one of the first experimenters, and the system had been used for so many hours that she should have died a long time ago, but the body survived for so long.
The Arnold incident ended, and the Washington naturally passed into the hands of Miss Wang. This is a gift from her adoptive fathers, Shi Yi, Chuangpu, and the crazy Arnold, all assets are already under her control.
Kara was the number 00 of the Vespa Combat Team. She was well aware of the symptoms, treatment, and life support of the users of the whooping ghost system, as well as Lee's case.
If she didn't want Meng to die, bringing Meng to Miss Wang was Kara's only option.
As long as she can keep Meng from dying, she is willing to do anything, even if she betrays God.
However, Carla felt more and more that this was not what she wanted.
Meng was not dead. The whooping ghost system is active in his brain and also treats his body as his own. If this continues, the hero is actually dead, and the only thing alive is the devil in him.
"I'm going to bring him back to life." Her mouth kept silently, over and over again, it was her inner voice. Kara decides to escape Miss Wang's lair and seek a way to revive Meng Striking. Kara has always acted clumsy and recklessly, but she is not out of the question.
This secret "method" is hung in the bomb bay of the F24 fighter.
Carla spent a long time preparing flight plans, under the pretext that she was going to conduct an anti-aircraft patrol for the USS Washington. As long as she can catapult off this battleship, she will be able to escape with the secret and make the Mengsheng truly resurrected. Otherwise, it would have been too late, because she overheard Miss Wang's phone call last night that the system intruder described was the person she was looking for. And Miss Wang seemed to be impatient to kill the man
Without further ado. Carla skipped all the checks and just took off as soon as she could.
But the catapult operator seems to have discovered something, having been repeatedly observing the landing gear hydraulic column of the F24 fighter and Kara's expression. The power of the catapult is limited, and the carrier-based fighter must report the full weight of the aircraft before ejection and takeoff, and the fuel and payload must be calculated very accurately. But the "secret" in the Kara cabin was apparently too heavy and did not match the total weight of the fighter she reported.
She rests her left hand on the throttle stick and presses her right hand, ready to switch to attack at any moment. I made up my mind: as soon as the other party asked me to stop for inspection, I would open fire and force my take-off.
The waiting process was long and tense, but she was not flustered, she sat firmly on the ejection seat, she didn't even blink her eyes, her eyes were still calm and resolute, but the ejection commander was a little weak by her. The two sides seemed to be in some kind of tacit stalemate, and Kara was very patient, and after waiting for a long time, even her state of mind seemed to enter a kind of wandering state. The chime in the cockpit disappeared, the noise of the engines on both sides gradually quieted down, and the sounds on the aircraft carrier and the sea breeze were all isolated from a glass of glass. On the contrary, Kara heard her own heartbeat and plopped, which was too loud. Like a drum, no, even like thunder. Kara was even worried that the catapult operator ten meters away would hear the loud heartbeat.
Kara tries to stabilize her feelings and suppress her heartbeat, but her heartbeat gets louder and louder. It is extremely abnormal for such an outstanding carrier-based aircraft pilot as her, and the highly difficult and high-risk former US carrier-based aircraft pilot has always been known for not being surprised by changes, and his emotional control ability is no less than that of an astronaut.
"Damn it"
The catapult operator lifted the phone, looked at himself suspiciously, and said something on the phone, he must have found out that his fighter weight was wrong.
Kara's hand had already touched the system's weapon switch button, ready to fire.
She had to go, she had to make the struck really come alive. If the secret of the plane is discovered and all the work is lost, Kara will never let this happen. In her mind, she began to quickly orchestrate the plan: fire first, cause chaos; then forcibly take off, use the self-weight to press down, and rely on the ground effect to maintain the flight; Make a sharp turn in front of the bow and go around to the side to avoid the range of the ship's air defense system. She wasn't even going to check the altitude and speed values, just to get out of here.
While I was thinking about it, the unexpected happened.
The ejection commander put down the phone and waved at the people on deck.
The deck operator in the yellow vest was immediately ordered to raise his arm and wave upward, indicating that the catapult was full of pressure and ready to eject. Without thinking, Carla began a series of take-off maneuvers, quickly pushing the throttle stick all the way to her head with her left hand, and pressing the metal circlip with her fingers to prevent the huge acceleration during ejection from dragging the throttle back to the slow position; The right hand skillfully and forcefully pulls the lever in a counterclockwise direction, allowing the entire rudder face to perform the final control check. The eyes scan the dashboard completely, and there is no red light and no alarm in the whole system.
With the ejection ready, Kara motioned to the ejection commander, as usual. No matter what secrets you have in your heart and how nervous you are, you must be methodical, which is the essence of carrier-based aircraft pilots.
A few seconds later, a huge force burst out.
Kara's F24 heavy fighter jet accelerated abruptly from the flight deck, driven by a catapult. The double-change swept wings are fully extended, the full flaps are completely released, and the huge wing surface supports the aircraft, which pierces the sky under the propulsion of this force.
At this time, in the cabin of the Washington, Miss Wang held up the phone, looked at the F24 fighter that was climbing at full afterburner at high speed, and said with satisfaction: "Yes, let her go." She will do us a big favor. ”
Watching the plane gradually move away, Miss Wang continued, "Send two more fighter jets to pursue her." Listen, you must not shoot down, as long as she does not suspect her. ”
