Chapter 162: The Value of Backfire

"We are not afraid of sacrifice for the sake of our friends." John said very tallly.

After saying that, the American technicians who had been waiting on the side for a long time began to do it, such a fighter, it is necessary to get rid of the wing and tail first, when they came, they brought tools, dismantling this fighter, first of all, you can know how the technology of the Soviet Union's variable sweep wing is.

The wing box was disassembled, and the wing was disassembled, and what was left was a long fuselage, and the mountain road was rugged, and it was definitely impossible to drag it out directly.

The sky slowly darkened, and for the first time, the American friends carried forward the spirit of hardship and hard work, and continued to disassemble under the illumination of the headlights.

Two huge engines in the tail section, which were dismantled, were a turbofan engine with a super-large thrust of more than two hundred kN, the crystallization of the newest Soviet aviation industry.

Then, the excess fuel in the plane was diverted, and the whole plane has become very light.

John had wanted to cut the fuselage off the middle, but once the girder was broken, the plane could no longer fly, and now, in order to allow the plane to continue to fly back after the repairs were completed, John decided to get the skeleton out intact.

"No, more than forty meters." "The mountain trail is too dangerous. ”

The longitudinal beam of this aircraft runs through the entire fuselage, and it is more than 40 meters long, and it is impossible to go to Guò on the mountain road.

"We'll bring in a helicopter." "We continued to dismantle the heavy parts of the plane, leaving only an empty shell, a CH-53 Hippopotamus helicopter, which could be lifted away," John said. ”

Mhammad shook his head: "No, it can't be delayed for too long, if the Soviets find out here, you will all be in danger." ”

Of course, Mhammad would not agree to them dismantling the plane. If they were all dismantled, there would be no secrets to speak of, and there would be less value.

"Disconnect from the middle." "Split into two sections so that our trailer can be towed overnight," Mhammad said. ”

"No, the girder in the middle is broken, and I won't be able to fly in the future." John said.

"We weren't going to let it fly. Just pick it up again, put it on the ground, show it to the people, let the whole world know that the Soviets are invading us. Mhammad said, "Do you do it?" If you don't do it, my men will tear it down. ”

Break the stringers, the value is cut in half! John couldn't help but sigh, but also, continued to dismantle. It takes longer. Moreover, if you transfer a helicopter to come over, you have to make a report, and the helicopter of the US Navy will not come over in a day, and you will take it for granted.

The disassembled wings, engines and other parts have been installed in the car. Pakistan's ground forces intend to transport all these parts overnight.

"Good. Then cut it open. John made up his mind. When he began to direct his men to work, he heard Mhammad say to himself: "It's not difficult to fly, just change it to the girder, re-survey, make one, and it will all fall to the ground." There are also risks associated with the reuse of girders. ”

John was suddenly overjoyed, yes, why didn't he think of it! Yes, indeed! Now let's get it back and re-do it according to the size, it's stronger!

"Quick. Do it, it's all done tonight! John said.

Mhammad watched these Americans work hard and watched this huge bomber being dismembered, and he also had mixed feelings.

Backfire! This fighter, with anti-ship missiles attached to it, can penetrate the defense at low altitude and high speed, and it can completely inflict heavy damage on the aircraft carrier formation, and even in another twenty years, this aircraft will not be outdated.

If Pakistan can have fighters like the last squadron, it can effectively control the Indian Ocean, and India's crippled aircraft carriers will dare to fly to Pakistan's doorstep? It has long been killed.

It is a pity that now Pakistan's national strength is limited, and its scientific and technological capabilities are also limited, so it is impossible to operate this huge bomber at all, and at the same time, the United States will also be highly vigilant, and now, in order to cooperate with the Americans, it has only one choice, to use this backfire to fight for Pakistan's maximum benefits.

"Chief of Staff, we need to guard against the continued cross-border flights of the Soviets." Arslan said: "I have to go back to base, what are we going to do with this plane?" ”

"I've got to go back to base, too." Mhammad said: "We are not needed here, American friends will help us deal with it, but the cross-border flight of the Soviets should not occur in the near future." When I go back, I need to go through the guò military district and report to the president. ”

After all, Mhammad still can't be the master, and besides, directly crossing the military region and reporting to his superiors will cause misunderstanding in the military region, although Musha'f has a good relationship with him, he also has to maintain this situation, and the president has to make the decision on this plane.

The 40 th Army Air Force intends to use high-altitude target planes to attract the attention of the Pakistan Air Force, and then break through the defense from a low altitude.

Under the combination of Tomcat fighters and immortal bird missiles, the Pakistan Air Force has the ability to snipe them from a long distance, although the two low-altitude MiG-25s escaped, but this is because of the opponent's multi-target attack, once the Pakistan Air Force's Tomcat fighters are equipped with a large number of them, then, and then enter Pakistan's airspace, it is almost an act of looking for death.

Turkmenistan air base, Khosnetsov frowned, successive losses demoralized the aviation of the 40th Army, moreover, he had to bear military accountability from the rear.

This must be reversed! Can a weak Pakistani Air Force still drive the great Soviet Air Force crazy? Absolutely not! It is necessary to form an absolute advantage over them!

In this world, the USSR is not even afraid of the United States, how can it be afraid of a Pakistan!

Isn't it a long-range air-to-air missile? It's not just the United States! The Soviet Air Force also had it! Moreover, it is even more advanced than the American one!

It was a sleepless night, and Horsnetsov began to contact the rear, he wanted to apply for a new fighter!

Pakistan also stayed up all night, when the news was received, President Zia-ul-Haq immediately convened an emergency meeting, and at the same time, the commander of the Peshawar Military Region on the front line, Mushaaf, and the chief of staff Mhammad were all summoned, and the meeting lasted until late at night, when the senior generals came out, everyone had a smile on their faces, even Defense Minister Murvef, who had a lot of opinions about Mhammad, was smiling, holding Mhammad's arm, and talking to him cordially, as if he was a brother.

When Mhamad returned to Peshawar Air Base, it was already dawn, and he had not slept all night, and Mhamad's eyes were a little red.

However, when he returned to the office, Mhammad saw John and the others who were already waiting outside.

Last night, after dismantling the backfire, it was pulled away by the Pakistan Army, walked through the rugged mountain road, and returned to the Peshawar Military Region, where it was put into a secret hangar, and John and the others were about to take another look, but were prevented from entering.

So, John had no choice but to come and ask for an audience with Mhammad.

"Thank you for your selfless help yesterday, I heard that the wing of the Tomcat was damaged?" Mhammad asked John.

"We are working intensively on repairs, and spare parts were sent from Grumman yesterday evening." John said: "As soon as the spare parts arrive, we will do our best to repair it, and now we just knock the damaged part to restore it, and fly it a few times once in a while, it should be no problem." ”

Mhammad nodded: "Thank you to our American friends, we fought side by side in the face of the invasion of the Soviets." ”

"Yes, we will definitely stand firmly by the side of our friends." John said, "Can you give us the fighter plane that was captured yesterday?" ”

For you? Looking at John's innocent face, Mhammad said, "Of course... No, we have already reported to the President that the plane will be set up in the middle of Islamabad to tell our people not to forget the invasion of the Soviets. ”

"But that would drown out the value of the plane!" "This plane is a Soviet supersonic bomber, a weapon to attack our aircraft carriers, and we need to study it, which is very important for us in the United States," John said. ”

The importance of this plane is self-evident, and Mhammad knows even more that in later generations, during the Taiwan Strait crisis in 96, the Americans' aircraft carrier approached the mainland with a show of force, and if the mainland had Backfire bombers and long-range anti-ship missiles, the Americans would definitely not be so arrogant.

The Backfire bomber is a threat to the American aircraft carrier group, and now this captured bomber can allow the Americans to carefully study the performance of this kind of aircraft, so as to make effective prevention.

"Yes." "However, I have already reported to the president, and if this is changed, it will be very dissatisfying to the president," Mhammad said. ”

"We're willing to make amends." John said: "As long as we repair this Backfire bomber and fly back to the United States, we are willing to give you twenty Immortal Bird missiles to replenish your consumption." ”

Immortal Bird missiles are very expensive, and, as is the case now, they are very much needed by the Pakistani Air Force.

Who knows, but Mhammad shook his head: "John, we get along very well in private, but how can just twenty missiles make up for the dissatisfaction in our president's heart?" ”

"So what do you need? We've got you covered! John said. This is no longer a matter for Grumman alone, it is related to the interests of the entire United States, even if it is to give Pakistan some more benefits, it is completely okay.

"Alas, you have seen our two battles, if it were not for the timely dispatch of the second Tomcat this time, we would have faced a brutal invasion by the Soviet Air Force, and even bombers like Backfire came, we were under a lot of pressure, and our air defense network had a big flaw." "Now is the time when we need the support of our U.S. allies," Mhammad said. ”

Mhammad said that there was no problem at all, thinking of yesterday's battle, it was really a thousand shots. John said, "What do you need?" ”

"E-3 AWACS." Mhammad said lightly. (To be continued......)
