Chapter 264: Who Can Fly a Plane?
[Please keep in mind the domain name of this site.]
The CIA's influence in Ukraine is indeed relatively limited, mainly because due to the Cold War, it has always been a forbidden area for Westerners, and under the strong deterrent power of the KGB, it is very difficult to insert a nail, let alone plant a nail in an important position.
This time, if it weren't for Fan Wuxie's actions being too exaggerated and affecting the interests and credibility of the Americans in Ukraine, their people would not have rushed to protest, after all, it still takes a certain amount of strength to spread wild in front of other people's homes.
Fan Wuxian is very aware of the current situation, but he is also worried that the intervention of the Americans will affect his plan, so he has to do something else.
The old men who are active everywhere have completed their tasks one after another, and it is another round of procurement activities, which makes the Ukrainians feel very happy, but there is also a little bit that makes them feel very strange, it seems that these old Chinese men hired a little more local guides and the old men who have completed the tasks began to board charter flights back home one after another, but this time it is said that because of physical problems, they were divided into seven charter flights, and the schedule was also divided into several days, and the Ukrainians did not have any objections to this, Presumably, if these people stay for one more day, they can contribute a little more to Ukraine's economic income.
Fan Wuzhi stayed until the last moment, and he wanted to watch all kinds of equipment be loaded onto the large transport plane, and then return to China together.
However, he was still shocked when he saw the seven large military transport planes he had bought from black market arms dealers.
An-124 large transport aircraft! Designed by the Soviet Antonov Design Group, in the eighties was the world's largest strategic heavy transport aircraft.
The An-124 is superior in performance to the largest C-5 transport aircraft in the United States. As a result of the collapse of the USSR, at present the Antonov Design Group has been transformed into the Antonov Aviation Scientific and Technical Complex of the Republic of Ukraine.
The An-124 once set a record of 171 tons of material and flew at an altitude of 10,750 meters, breaking the original world record for load height set by the C-5.
Standing under the huge transport plane, Fan Wuxi felt as if he was looking at a mountain. The thick fuselage has a pear-shaped cross-section, and the main wing is a backward-swept trans upper wing, with a wingspan of 73 meters.
Inside four nacelles under the wings. Equipped with a turbofan engine. With a thrust reverser. Both the nose and tail are equipped with full-size cargo doors that open upwards and left and right, respectively.
Cargo can be freely accessed from the through-cargo hold. = Novel 520 debut== The belly of the An-124 is close to the ground, which can facilitate the loading and unloading of goods.
The landing gear is of the front three-point type, with twenty-four wheels. The cargo compartment is divided into two levels, the upper compartment is narrower, and the crew of six crew members and one cargo handler are seated here.
The upper cabin can also carry 88 passengers. The lower main cargo compartment can carry up to 150 tons, and the front and rear doors of the cargo hold are opened and closed by hydraulic devices, which can be opened in seven minutes and three minutes respectively.
Two cranes with a lifting capacity of 10 tons are mounted on the top of the cargo compartment and two winch trucks with a towing capacity of 3 tons are also installed on the floor.
Due to the large cargo space, the An-124 is capable of carrying large cargoes such as ordinary aircraft fuselages and chemical plant towers.
For the convenience of long-distance flight, the An-124 is equipped with toilets, baths, galleys and two rest rooms, so that pilots can get a better rest during long-distance flights.
The on-board equipment includes weather radar, navigation and map radar, satellite navigation, four sets of inertial navigation devices, a large moving map display and a large radar screen.
The Ukrainian arms dealer enthusiastically led Fan Wuxian to tour the entire plane, and then explained with a little pain.
"These planes are the best legacy of Ukraine since the collapse of the Soviet Union. \\\\\\If it weren't for the fact that we had a strong backstage in the military, it would have been absolutely impossible for this kind of stuff to flow outside. "The specific reason for Fan Wu's illness is not clear, probably because a certain important member of the military committed the crime.
A high-ranking air force general associated with him was also scared, so he wanted to sell a little military supplies at a low price and urgently raise some money for himself to run away.
According to Fan Wu's illness, this type of large transport aircraft has only produced less than 50 aircraft in total, and he was able to get seven of them, and it only cost 100 million US dollars, which is really earned.
Thinking that after the completion of Panshi Airport, he would have seven of the largest transport planes available, not to mention how happy Fan Wuxian was in his heart.
It's really sleepy and sent a pillow. It couldn't be more appropriate. With the cooperation of the military's moles, things went very smoothly.
So much so that Fan Wuxian regretted it a little, he made so many gimmicks with great fanfare, and it was not as effective as the verbal order of a general, seven large strategic transport planes!
It's worrying enough to think about it, but fortunately I'm taking advantage of it at this time! After the transport planes were loaded with cargo, they took off one after another, and the target was, of course, China.
Fan Wuxian sat on the last plane, accompanied by dozens of experts in Ukrainian military technology, whose identities were too sensitive, so they had to board the plane at the last minute.
When the plane took off, Fan Wuxian let out a long breath, and said in his heart that this mission had finally successfully achieved the intended goal, and the people and equipment had been dug back.
Hundreds of experts in various fields, as well as the most advanced mechanical processing equipment in Ukraine, as well as a large number of civil and military design drawings, the value of these things is simply immeasurable.
Fan Wuxian thought to himself that after he went back, he would have to find hundreds and eighty Russian translators to translate day and night.
"However, this time, the cooperation of the government is very strong, otherwise there is no way to get so many things, although the chief did not clearly say what needs to be returned, but the matter of reciprocating the peach is still to be done." Fan Wuxian thought to himself, what kind of talent should be given away?
As for the equipment, it was bought at a great expense, and it must be kept for himself. As for the experts in ship engines and power systems and aero engines, it is useless for Fan Wuzhi to keep them, and they just give favors to the military's R&D institutions, and I believe they will be very happy.

"Boss, let's have a cup of coffee, we've got to fly for hours." One of his subordinates handed Fan Wuxian coffee and said.
If you fly directly from Kyiv to Beijing, it is probably less than 9,000 kilometers, but the range of the An-124 when it is fully loaded is less than 5,000 kilometers, so the planes in front of you fly directly to the airport in Urumqi, and then fly to Beijing after refueling.
And the last plane that Fan Wuxian took was not carrying much cargo and was only a few dozen people, so the flight range was about 15,000 kilometers or more, and he could easily fly directly to Beijing.
Fan Wuxi took the coffee, took a sip, then turned his head to look at the sky on the right, and said very unhappily,
"Damn the weather, you can't even see the sun, doesn't the weather forecast say it's sunny today?"
"Boss, the sun is here." One of his subordinates pointed to the window on the left and reminded Fan Wuxian.
Fan Wuxian turned his head to look, and sure enough, he found that the sun was on the window on the left, although there were some clouds, but he could still see clearly, so he felt that something was wrong.
If you fly from Kyiv to Beijing, you should be flying from west to east, and the sun should be on your right side, right?
! How can it be the other way around now?! Wrong! Definitely there is a problem! Fan Wuxi immediately jumped up, rushed to the cab, knocked on the hatch, and asked the interpreter to question the driver,
"Where are you flying?" As a result, the Ukrainian driver spoke a little bit and looked very emotional, and the translator said with a little headache,
"They said they longed for a life in the West and decided to fly directly to Germany." Fan Wuxi suddenly said angrily,
"It's the other way around! Do whatever you want?! You tell them that if they don't turn me around, I'll start killing them one by one!" The translator told a few drivers what Fan Wuxian said, but several drivers shrugged their shoulders, spread their hands, and said again
"What did they say?" Fan Wuxian asked. The interpreter said with some annoyance,
"They say they'd rather die for their freedom than give in to **."
"These white-haired pigs! The critical moment is really unreliable! Do they think that without them, no one will be able to fly a plane?! Fan Wuxi waved a few seals in, and then asked,
"Have you ever learned to fly an airplane?" The seals immediately replied,
"I learned, we can drive away all the models used by the US Air Force."
"Do you hear that?" Fan Wuxian said to the translator,
"Tell them this, and if you don't turn around, throw them all down to see the white clouds!" After listening to the translator's words, several Ukrainian drivers shook their heads with unanimous expressions and rejected Fan Wuxie's request.
Fan Wuxian treated these guys unceremoniously, and directly asked people to tie them up, and then opened the hatch under his stomach and dropped them as bombs.
Then Fan Wuxian said to the seals,
"You guys, turn the plane around and drive me to Beijing." Although the operation of this large transport aircraft is a little more complicated, most of the work is done by automatic control, although many of the buttons are in Russian, but there are also English markings, which should look very simple.
After a few seals came up and tinkered for a while, they found that something was wrong, and said to Fan Wuxian sweatingly,
"Boss, this plane seems to be a little wrong! It's different from what we've learned! We can't open this thing either! Fan Wuxi suddenly said angrily,
"Damn, why didn't you say it earlier?! Do you have to wait until I throw the drivers away?! Do you want to kill everyone?! ”
