Chapter Seventy-Eight

readx;

The pilot was not all brainless, and after finding that he had no chance of winning, the pilot finally chose to parachute. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This was a very rational choice, and Liu Wei flew the F-22J for a week in the vicinity of the pilot before heading west.

He didn't kill the pilot because there was no need for it.

So far, even excluding Ji Ye's plane, Liu Wei has shot down ten F-22Js and become a veritable "ace in air combat".

After flying 20 kilometers, Liu Wei lowered the flight altitude to 500 meters, turned off all the electronic equipment on the fighter, and then turned southeast.

After discovering that there was not much fuel left, Liu Wei let the fighter jet fly at cruising speed.

It must be admitted that the internal fuel tanks of the F-22 series fighters are very large, and even without carrying auxiliary fuel tanks, the transfer range exceeds 3,500 kilometers. With only about a quarter of fuel left, it is still possible to fly a thousand kilometers at lower subsonic speeds.

Because the air battle site is not far from the North American continent, it is enough for Liu Wei to return to Cedros Island.

At this time, the North American Air Defense Command was already in chaos.

Only one E-3C accompanied the fleet of fighters to the Hawaiian Islands, and it was more than 200 kilometers away.

When the air battle began, the E-3C's radar only detected the F-22J intermittently, because the F-22J's whereabouts were only revealed when the bomb bay door was ready to launch the missile. Subsequently, the E-3C air traffic controller received a call from the pilot of the E-22C to know that an F-22J had "mutinied" and attacked the other fighters.

During this time, the air controllers on the E-3C tried their best, and also detected only the downed fighter.

What's going on?

The situation was immediately reported to the North American Air Defense Command, and the US Air Force immediately dispatched four F-22A. It's just that these fighters deployed at Edward Air Force Base will take at least half an hour to reach the battlefield.

The air battle obviously did not last so long.

In order to hold off the "defector" fighters, the E-3C's air controllers contacted the two F-22Js that were not shot down and asked them to go and intercept them.

It is precisely in this way that Liu Wei was attacked.

Unfortunately, the two F-22Js were shot down after only a few minutes of delay.

At the end of the air battle, the E-3C's air controllers still didn't figure out what was going on. It wasn't until a few minutes later that the F-22J piloted by Kino approached.

Seeing the suddenly approaching F-22J, the pilot of the E-3C broke out in a cold sweat.

In front of fighters, the E-3C is a big stupid pig, let alone evasion, and there is no chance of escape.

Thankfully, the fighter did not fire, but came closer.

Seeing the situation with the fighter clearly, the pilots of the E-3C breathed a sigh of relief. The radar fairing fell off entirely, and the fire control system on the fighter was completely finished.

It is a pity that the communication antenna on the fighter was hit by a detached fairing.

There is no way to communicate by voice, only through sign language.

Figuring out that it was the pilot who was piloting the fighter, the E-3C's air controller immediately called the approaching F-22A fleet and asked two F-22As to accompany the F-22J back to Edward Air Force Base, while the other two F-22As accompanied the E-3C to continue their search of the area.

At this time, NORAD had already sent a second batch of fighters, and also dispatched search and rescue aircraft.

Although it was still not clear what was going on at this point, one thing is for sure, the pilot of one F-22J defected, shot down ten F-22Js over the Pacific Ocean, and then left the airspace of the war.

That is, that fighter is still in the air.

It's a pity that even the E-3C, which has an advanced surname, can't find the F-22J, which has very outstanding stealth capabilities.

Of course, there is no doubt about one thing. That F-22J dropped the drop fuel tank before the attack and also consumed a lot of fuel in air combat, so it was impossible to fly too far.

Because there are not many islands in the eastern Pacific Ocean, if you want to land, you can only return to the west coast of the United States.

NORAD immediately contacted the National Guard in California, Oregon, and Washington on the West Coast, and then sent the message to the FBI and NSA, asking all federal and local agencies to work together to find the F-22J that could return to the United States.

An hour later, the F-22J piloted by Kino returned to Edward Air Force Base.

It didn't take much effort for NORAD to figure out that it was a pilot named Uesugi who attacked other fighters in his company.

The news was immediately sent to the FBI and NSA.

Although the North American Air Defense Command is a military base, not a law enforcement agency, there are a lot of talents, and it has long been thought that Shanshan did not mutiny, and it is very likely that someone will drop it.

Subsequently, when the ground crew inspected Kino's F-22J, they found that someone had tampered with the fighter.

It is very inconspicuous, there is a problem with several clips on the radar fairing, and it cannot be found at all without careful inspection.

This is exactly in line with the situation that Kino encountered, that is, when maneuvering with high overload, the damaged clip broke and the radar fairing fell off as a whole.

Is it sabotage, or is it a quality issue?

At this time, the F-22J piloted by Liu Wei had already come to the sky over Cedros Island.

Seeing the yacht moored to the east of the island, Liu Wei flew the fighter jet over.

On the island, Batavia saw the fighters and immediately asked several special forces to unfurl the white strips of cloth spread on the ground, marking a "runway" of less than six hundred meters.

It's just a temporary clearing.

Liu Wei didn't plan to fly the fighter to take off again, so it didn't matter if the landing was dangerous.

Lowering the altitude to less than 100 meters, Liu Wei lowered the landing gear of the fighter and immediately raised the resistance plate to slow down the fighter.

The landing was so thrilling that the F-22J almost hit the ground.

Because the ground was very soft, the fighter almost got stuck while taxiing.

Fortunately, by this time there was not much fuel left in the fighter jets, and the missiles had run out. When he flew over, Liu Wei also used up all the shells, and the fighter was in an "empty weight" state, weighing less than 15 tons. Because it was designed with take-off from field airfields in mind, as well as easy replenishment of ammunition and fuel, the F-22J has a very low center of gravity when parked, with the belly less than a meter above the ground.

Thanks to this, the F-22J finally came to a steady stop.

"Remove the stuff and get it on the yacht as soon as possible." After Liu Wei climbed out, he gave a word of instruction to Batavia, who had rushed over. "The U.S. military will be able to find this place soon, move quickly."

"Don't want the fighter?" Looking at the F-22J, Batavia couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Liu Wei glanced back, it was indeed a pity that he really had to be dragged into the sea.

"There's a chainsaw on the yacht, and there's an oxygen welding cutter."

"Can you stuff it?"

"Chopped up, it's sure to be stuffed."

"How much time does it take?"

"With enough manpower, it can be done in half an hour."

Liu Wei thought for a while and said: "Okay, first dismantle the plane, send the main parts to the yacht, and hide the rest, I'll contact Dian Bin and ask him to arrange the transfer work." ”

Batavia didn't ramble any more, and whistled at his nearby men to get their tools back to the yacht.

Liu Wei found a special soldier and asked for a maritime satellite phone, contacted Dian Bin, and told him what he thought.

"Are you crazy?"

"It doesn't hurt to give it a try, right? If it really doesn't work, we will blow up the fighter and lead the people to retreat. ”

On the other end of the phone, Dian Bin was silent for a while before he said, "Okay, you can do it, I'll help you contact the transport ship, but you have to evacuate as soon as possible." ”

"The Yankees have already started to act?"

"The entire West Coast region has been mobilized, and I heard that all the fighter jets here have taken off, and the police have deployed thousands of observation points near the coastline."

"They think we're going to go back to the U.S.?"

"It's impossible to fly across the Pacific, is it?"

Liu Wei smiled and said, "In this case, it will take a few hours for the Yankees to understand at the earliest, and we have enough time." ”

"Hurry up anyway, do you want to send someone to pick you up?"

"There's no need, let's leave on a yacht and get in touch with the transshipment ship as soon as possible."

"I'll do my best, I'll call you when there's news."

At the end of the call, Batavia's men had just brought up their tools.

"Don't tear it down, do as I tell you."

Liu Wei hurriedly ran over and stopped those special forces who liked to use brute force.

This is a fighter plane that is too precious to be precious, and if you really want to dismantle eight pieces, you have to pay attention to ways and means, and you can't go back with scrap copper and rotten iron.

When Liu Wei was busy dismantling the fighter jet, Dian Bin called Li Tingxuan.

Hearing that Liu Wei had built an F-22J and was about to transport it back to China, Li Tingxuan was so shocked that he couldn't even close his mouth. Later, Li Tingxuan almost jumped when he heard that Liu Wei had shot down ten F-22Js and destroyed another F-22J in an air battle in order to get this fighter.

This guy, if you don't do it, you don't say it, it's an earth-shattering thing!

Surprised to surprised, Li Tingxuan must have been very happy to think that Liu Wei had an F-22J that was basically intact in his hand, and that there was a great chance of transporting it back.

After determining the navigation of intelligence vessels operating in the eastern Pacific, Li Tingxuan took the initiative to contact Dian Bin.

Instead of making a phone call, he sent the route information of the intelligence ship closest to the island of Cedros to Dianbin, asking him to find a way to rendezvous with the intelligence ship.

It took an hour to get these things done.

When Liu Wei received a call from Dian Bin, he had almost finished dismantling the F-22J, and the special forces were transporting some small parts onto the yacht. Larger parts, such as one-shot wing skins, need to be wrapped in tarpaulins and then dragged onto the yacht by Liu Wei and others.

Fortunately, Liu Wei is not only strong, and the yacht is not far from the beach.

Two hours later, with the help of Batavia and other special forces, Liu Wei towed the last large component: an F-22J F-119 engine onto the yacht.

Some of the parts are too large to be placed on the open deck.

In order to prevent detection by reconnaissance satellites, Liu Wei asked Batavia to camouflage large-sized parts and then place them upright. The main thing is a pair of monolithic wings several meters long.

When placed on the sides of the yacht, it looks a bit like a pair of sunshades folded up.

Picking up a few special forces who were in charge of cleaning up the traces, the yacht started, rounded the island of Cedros, turned south, and sailed into the vast Pacific Ocean.
