......In the blue sky, the silence was broken by the sound of a buzzing engine, and two yellow and black Golden Eagle attack planes flew over the city of Berbera from the sea at an altitude of two thousand meters, and swept farther south. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

During this time, the residents of Berbera, the largest port city in the north, had long been accustomed to flying overhead several antique planes every few days, and if it weren't for the golden eagle printed on them, many would have thought that it was some folk hobby group performing a flight here.

The 'anomaly' over Berbera has attracted the attention of many well-intentioned people, including the CIA's Somali chief, James Brown. Plum.

Now the intelligence services of various countries are all aware that Somalia is developing and equipping an old piston propeller aircraft from World War II, which can be seen from the twin-engine engine and the thick armor observed, which is a bomber used for ground attack.

Propeller aircraft still occupy a very important position in modern aviation, and its low-speed efficiency ratio still plays an important role in many fields, such as civil aviation, agriculture, etc. But militarily, what exactly is the purpose of the piston propeller aircraft, for anyone who knows a little about the development of the modern air force, will have an explanation: vulnerability.

With the development of guidance technology and missile technology, those flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the water are all greatly threatened to their survival, and if they do not want to disappear into the long-lasting river, they must also 'evolve' into more survivable characteristics, just like the theory of evolution in nature. The speed limit of the propeller aircraft, so that this kind of aircraft has gradually withdrawn from the front line of the military, because of the existing technology, it is difficult to solve this problem, if it can not be solved from the speed of the biggest deficiency of the propeller aircraft, it is necessary to find other ways, but under the existing technology of immature development of stealth technology and anti-missile technology, this is undoubtedly a fool's dream, or can solve these problems, improve the battlefield survivability of the propeller aircraft, but also the cost is too great, not in line with reality.

However, Somalia is doing things that are unimaginable to ordinary people under the rules of the international aviation community, which have been largely finalized for decades, and will certainly arouse the interest of many countries.

If the propeller solves the problem of low survivability on the battlefield, it cannot be denied that it is still a military weapon with a very high practical surname.

Even if a propeller aircraft has been partially modernized, when its combat use is transferred from the field of air supremacy, anti-submarine and other high-tech requirements to ground attack, the cost of an aircraft is far lower than that of a jet aircraft, less than one-tenth of it, or even lower. Secondly, propeller aircraft do not have high requirements for pilots. The Air Force is undoubtedly also a technical branch, all countries need to train a qualified pilot, it takes 5 years or even longer, to spend a great price to train a qualified jet pilot, and with the development of aviation technology, the quality of pilots is higher, which leads to the development of the Air Force, is towards the 'big technology, small scale' development, it is impossible to be like the World War II period, hundreds of thousands of aircraft fight together, a country, even the United States, can not raise tens of thousands of aircraft Air Force scale.

The emergence of multi-purpose aircraft also follows this law of development. Strengthen the integration of aircraft science and technology, reduce the scale of deployment, achieve multi-purpose aircraft, complete more tactical uses, reduce maintenance costs, and reduce logistical pressure.

But the development of technology does not happen overnight, there is a process of development. Modern multi-role aircraft have not yet reached the level of capability to be able to apply the tactical requirements used, and in some areas of extremely high tactical requirements, it is necessary to maintain an exclusive aircraft.

The propeller aircraft, if it can improve its survivability in ground attack, is undoubtedly a very good attack aircraft. Especially for those countries that are not strong, it is undoubtedly very cost-effective to spend relatively little military expenditure to obtain an air suppression strike force.

Or it is with these purposes in mind that the propeller planes that often appeared in the port of Berbera during this time have become the target of attention of the intelligence services of various countries. They are secretly using all technical means to find out this 'mysterious propeller aircraft', in the hope of being able to grasp the detailed parameters of this kind of aircraft, and whether it is really using some new technology to improve the survivability of propeller aircraft on the battlefield.

James? Lee received orders from home, and also took a small but capable intelligence force with him, and lurked in Berbera.

After a week of observation, they found that the propeller aircraft would go to sea every two days, apparently on an offshore patrol mission. Judging by the information observed from the ground, such propeller aircraft are not equipped with anti-submarine weapons, so what is the purpose of coastal patrol?

Second, James found that the Somali propeller planes did not print the same number on some of the same type of aircraft as a certain country did to confuse foreign intelligence forces, and through the observation and analysis of these aircraft numbers, James's intelligence team came to a conclusion that the Somali army is currently equipped with about 50 or so aircraft, and these planes are currently stationed at the air base on the outskirts of Hargeisa.

Finally, on the ground, James can easily observe the belly of the plane through a high-powered telescope, which is a place that is difficult for reconnaissance satellites to detect, and some of the secrets of the plane may be here. And just as James thought, under the nose of such a propeller plane, he observed a small fuzzy door that resembled a car fuel filler.

In a relatively blurry photo, James observed carefully, he saw this photo, his first reaction was that this is the aircraft refueling pipe, but it can be retracted, this is not an advanced technology, the new generation of aircraft deployed by various countries, as long as it has the ability to refuel in the air, there are such parts, but the aircraft refueling pipe is located above the nose, and here is below, so James faintly feels that things are not as simple as he thought.

From the full photographs of the aircraft, James could not find anything else confusing, except for the weapons racks that had been seen under the belly, the others were indistinguishable from ordinary propeller aircraft. Therefore, James believes that if this kind of aircraft really has a secret, then this similar fuel pipe under the nose must be the key.

However, if he can't get close to a plane, it is impossible for him to observe and study it at close range, and this makes it impossible for him to provide the US team with more information about the secrets of this plane, and once a war breaks out between the United States and Somalia, this weapon with an unknown surname is likely to bring some trouble to the United States.

Yes, in James's mind, this propeller aircraft was also just a cause for some trouble for American GIs. The United States has a powerful air force, and no matter what kind of cards these planes have, they cannot escape the blows of the US Air Force.

Having said that, as a senior intelligence officer, if he can't figure out the details and trump cards of the 'enemy', it would be a dereliction of duty, and he can't help but encounter Waterloo in Somalia and be recalled to China in disgrace like his predecessor.

"It would be nice to get a plane!" James? Li whispered, a pair of eyes flashing with a strange light.

……

At Mogadishu International Airport, a plane circles several times and slowly lands. After the hatch opened, passengers walked down in twos and threes.

The moment Ayumo Suzuki walked out of the cabin door, his brows couldn't help frowning, because a dry hot wind blew in outside, which made him feel very uncomfortable when he was still in the spring climate more than ten hours ago.

Two expressionless men stood in his identity, each carrying a box in his hand, and when he looked closely, he couldn't see that the two people who seemed to be bodyguards were the two black-clothed bodyguards who brought Ayumi Suzuki into the veteran district in the first place. The only difference now is that the two are wearing white shirts and not black suits.

Walking out of the airport, one of the bodyguards picked up the phone and dialed a number, and soon a black Toyota stopped in front of several people; The three of them got into the car and went directly to the Crown Hotel, where someone had already booked a room. Walking into the presidential suite with a suitable temperature, Ayumo Suzuki loosened his tie and looked around before he was secretly stunned.

is worthy of being a powerful figure in Yuben, everything has been prepared for a long time, and his main task this time is to contact Li Mo as a 'source' with Li Mo and pass on Yuben's goodwill.

Although Ayumi Suzuki enjoys this kind of life with people to serve him, he also warns himself in his heart that he has not completed the task yet, everything in front of him is still illusory, and only when he completes the task, the big man will give him wealth and status, and really enjoy it all for a long time.

"Xiao Tian-kun, when are we going to see Li Mo?" Ayuo Suzuki took a short break and asked one of the bodyguards, who knew that although he was only a bodyguard, he represented the big man and had the power to decide among them.

The man known as Xiao Tian Jun is about thirty-five or sixteen years old, and his stature is tall in the Yamato nation, but now Xiao Tian's belly is already a little bulging, and he can see that this person's identity is no longer a pure bodyguard, he is in Murakami Guangshao, similar to the identity of a small housekeeper deacon, specializing in dealing with some external private affairs.

Xiao Tian glanced at Ayumi Suzuki expressionlessly, he didn't have a good impression of this kid from the gangster, he felt that the master sent this person to deal with Li Mo, I'm afraid it would be easy to have the opposite effect, with Li Mo's current status, Ayumi Suzuki went to deal with him, it was not qualified at all, but all this was set by the master, and Xiao Tian only had the obligation to fulfill it seriously.

"When we come, our ambassador to Somalia will send an invitation to Li Mo to meet, and you will be informed when the time comes. You just have to memorize the things that the master ordered now, don't mess it up, otherwise it will ......" The cold light in Oda's eyes made Ayumi Suzuki's heart tremble, and he nodded again and again to reassure.
