Chapter 45 Wuhu, take off

Iraq

New Baghdad, three o'clock in the morning

Titan's base airfield (codename Zeus)

A C17 transport plane, which had been magically altered and could not be seen in its original appearance, slowly landed vertically on the runway of the base under the support of rotatable jet engines on both sides of the wing.

This C17 is Fisher's private jet, as a macho man who has served in service, Fisher feels that those who use Airbus A380, Gulfstream G550 and other business jets as private jets are all sissies, the internal cargo compartment of this C17 has been reduced by half, and now only two side-by-side six-wheeled armored vehicles can be parked, and the rest of the part has been converted into a bedroom, dining room and home theater, if it weren't for Kate's refusal, Fisher would still want to have a sky pool.

In addition to the internal changes and flight control system upgrades, the cockpit of this C17 has also undergone a major overhaul, and the cockpit glass window is covered by armor and replaced by a holographic sensor, if it weren't for the flying coffin control system that doesn't fit the C17, Fisher would still want to work on it.

The shape of the C17 has also changed a lot, with a twin automatic cannon installed on the back and belly, and two missile pylons on the belly, which can be mounted with four air-to-air missiles, and in terms of power, the original four HP PW2040 turbofan engines were replaced by six vector plasma jet engines, with more horsepower and faster speed, and even the R&D department frantically installed a shrinking pontoon on the lower abdomen of the C17, codenamed Paladin, to support the aircraft to take off and land on the surface in an emergency.

Fisher's modification was also included in the brochure of Boeing's home, which caused quite a stir, and many wealthy dogs in Russia and the Middle East were quite interested, but they couldn't buy the C17. You can only settle for the next best thing and take Airbus to change.

"Welcome to Iraq, sir!" After Fisher stepped off the plane leisurely, two men immediately greeted him.

Cormac Madsen, just 38 years old this year, he once served in the Marine Corps with Fisher, and the two of them were in different units and had a joint rescue operation, in that operation, Fisher braved the rain of bullets and fearlessly rescued two friendly seriously wounded, which left a deep impression on Cormac, and later because of his daughter's schooling, Cormac chose to retire, and Fisher also happened to create the giant god, so he pulled this acquaintance over, of course, This Cormac and COD11 Universe Cormac have the same name, which also accounts for a large part of the reason.

And the other man, the most striking thing is his arms, which are two mechanical arms.

Dr. Mountain Muir Hayden, perhaps because of the butterfly effect, there are many characters in this world who are not much different from those characters in Fisher's impression, such as this Mountain Muir Hayden, he also suffers from an incurable disease, and his body functions are slowly necrotic, as a master of mechanical engineering and applied physics, he thought of replacing his gradually necrotic limbs with machinery, so he chose to come to Fisher for help, just because only the prosthetic technology of the giant god is the most mature.

In the face of the little brother who took the initiative to come to the door, how could Fisher not accept it, he not only gave Dr. Mountain Muir Hayden the transformation he wanted, but also sent more than a dozen scientific experts to help, after the initial transformation was completed, Dr. Mountain Muir Hayden immediately used the team that Fisher gave him to form the core team of the giant god, and Fisher got the wreckage of technical drawings from various worlds, and he was all responsible for reverse development.

"How's it going?" Shaking off the fleece trench coat that Kate had just put on, Fisher let out a white breath and asked with concern.

"It's not a big deal, both the True Sons and the Sentinels have now completed the installation of the new exoskeleton armor, which can make our soldiers one against ten! However, at present, we still urgently need pilots, the base now has six F52 squadrons, but the pilots are only enough for four squadrons, although we have recruited hundreds of volunteers from all over the world in the past year, it will take them half a year to master the flying skills, and then detailed information, I will give you a report tomorrow morning! ”

Cormac gave a brief overview of the current Zeus base.

"I have a lot of them here, you should come to the laboratory to see them one by one, we are currently working hard to solve the heat dissipation problem of the hundred-armed giant, as for the two ordnance giants, the assembly work will be completed in about three months!"

"All the hard work has been done, but not all of it!" Fisher felt it and blurted it out.

“???” Although I admired his boss's usual whimsical ideas, whether the other party jumped out of a few strange words still made a few people present scratch their heads.

"It's okay, now let's rest, and we'll go see the hundred-armed giant tomorrow morning!" Fisher waved his hand, go, go to sleep first.

Since the Titans stationed in Iraq, there are more and more investments and investigations from other countries, in New Baghdad, many star-rated hotels have sprung up, located on the banks of the Tigris River flowing through the city, the ecological environment that has been re-governed has also attracted a large number of tourists to travel, and the good cycle of economic development has also benefited the people of Iraq itself.

Of course, if Fisher wants to live, he will definitely not live in hotels outside, those hotels are not only expensive, but the security force is also very weak, is there some theft, wouldn't it be better to rest in the special villa in the Titan's base. You must know that these villas are also the invisible benefits that Fisher provides to his subordinates, if the family members of the employees of the giant god come to visit the base, they can not only enjoy the treatment of free air tickets and accommodation, but also live in these villas, Fisher is well aware of the truth that the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, especially because of the small scale in the early days of the establishment of the giant god, almost every employee at that time had four or five insurances, once they have an accident, their families can get millions of compensation.

With such a generous treatment and Fisher's approachable way of dealing with people, it can be said that the loyalty of the employees within the giant god is more than 70 (90 is considered diehard)

"Salute!"

After a night's rest, the energetic Fisher changed into a light gray training uniform and walked into the main building of the base.

"Good morning, everyone!" The bustling hall was instantly silent the moment Fisher pushed open the door, and Fisher's heart was full of a sense of accomplishment when he looked at the dense crowd of people.

Upon learning of the arrival of the big boss, almost all the persons in charge of the giant god in Iraq were concentrated here, the heads of the combat units were concentrated on the left, and the personnel in economic and scientific research were on the right, and there was a clear distinction between the two sides.

"Alright, let's all sit down!" Fisher pulled out his chair and sat down, took the PDA in his hand, and looked through it carefully.

As of 2010, Titan has become a behemoth with more than 2 million employees, and its specific data is as follows:

There are 60,000 combat troops deployed in Iraq (excluding the Air Force and Navy), which are divided into 10 attack brigades (True Sons) and one special operations brigade (Sentinels).

The data of the equipment owned is as follows

T740 Titan Transformer Tank: 120 units

Infantry fighting vehicles / armored vehicles: 400 units

Fighting Falcon assault gunboats: 160 units

mv66 Giant Bird VTOL transport aircraft: 280 units

F52 fighters: 96 (all expected to be deployed on the Hundred-armed Giant)

F16 fighters: 72 units

Su-25 attack aircraft: 24 units

Xi'an multi-functional transport aircraft: 108 units

Enterprise-class Littoral Combat Ships (equipped with electromagnetic guns and UAV hangars): 10 units

Frigates and patrol boats: 30 units

The corners of Fisher's mouth are about to crack when he sees the dense data, and with this army, Fisher feels that he can even touch one of the P5 countries (yes, it's you, Britain)

The huge military force also needs a larger economic support, with an average annual military expenditure of 6 billion (even more than Germany), which comes from the giant's energy development, shipping, resource exploration and arms trade, and of course, some shady blackops, the CIA has paid almost 2 billion to the giant in 10 years alone.

"When the follow-up funding of EXO is in place, we will continue to increase our investment in aviation! Mr. Williams, it would be better to increase the training of pilots in the air and space, is there any difficulty? ”

Williams Reinhardt, the head of the giant god air power, was previously a member of the Bundeswehr, with more than twenty years of flight time, proficient in more than 30 kinds of aircraft, if it were not for the casualties caused in the military exercise, he is now at least a lieutenant general, but unfortunately there is no if, the depressed Williams originally wanted to go to the United States to be a civil aviation captain to support his family, but the head of the airline saw his resume and immediately pushed him to Fisher.

"There is no difficulty, BOSS, the new batch of flight cadets have already received almost six hundred hours of adaptive training, and now they only need to wait for our big guys to enter service, and the aerospace forces will soon be able to form combat effectiveness!"

"You don't have to worry about this, as long as we solve our current few problems, the big guy you want will appear soon!" Dr. Shanmuir Hayden, who was on the side, patted his chest.

"Then I'll squat at the door of your laboratory every day and see when you can solve the problem!"

"When we can solve the problem, it depends on when the boss gets the materials we need!"

"Materials? Why don't anyone buy us materials? Do you want us to get them in trouble? Hearing that there was an opportunity, the head of the sentinel, who had already fought a law and order war, Anthony Parman, the former commander of the Delta Special Forces, hurriedly jumped out to ask for battle.

"No, your mission is not here, Anthony, I need you to turn Iraq into a real big rear, the kind without worries, to turn this land into our territory, understand?"

"Understood!"

"No, you don't understand!" Fisher rubbed his temples, stood up and said slowly: "I know that you don't understand many of my orders, but you still carry them out, and now, I don't hide them, everyone, what do you think about extraterrestrial life?" ”

"Extraterrestrial life?" A group of big men from the army looked at each other, but many scientists on the other side had their eyes shining.

"Our earth seems to be calm, but it has been full of dangers, as early as the 90s of the last century, there were aliens who tried to attack the earth, although they were finally stopped, but they will not give up, I know some of you think it is impossible, but what I want to tell you is that within three years, our homeland will undergo earth-shaking changes, and we are the forerunners responsible for the safety of our homeland, you can make a bet with me!" Fisher pulled out three dollars and placed it on the table.

"Three dollars max, does anyone want to bet with me?"

"Sir, I don't think it's likely, I bet!" An Asian titan executive put down a dollar.

"And me!"

"Me too!"

Within minutes, everyone in the room had finished betting, and the head of the science department was almost all betting on Fisher's side, while the head of the military was half open.

"Kate, are you done?"

"Well, it's been recorded!" The little secretary nodded.

"Okay, guys, let's wait and see!"

………………………………………………………………

"By the way, can you not look at me like that?" In the cabin, which was not a little bumpy, Fisher said uncomfortably to Kate, who had been staring at him with a scripping eye for almost half an hour.

"What's wrong? I just want to know when you're going to be a prophet! Also, Is it true that aliens are attacking Earth? Kate asked with a grin, half-lying on the flat chair.

"It's not a prophecy, it's a fact, a fact that is destined to happen in the future, and all I have to do is make those tragedies that are destined to happen disappear! Do you believe me? ”

"I believe that from the moment you pulled me out of the burning battleship and jumped into the sea, I believed that you were doing everything right!" As he spoke, Ketra opened her neckline and pointed to a scar on her chest and said seriously.

"Then you won't be disappointed!"

"Sir, we're approaching the Zagros Mountains!" The pilot suddenly reminded loudly.

"Open the hatch!" Fisher put on a call headset and gestured to the pilot a few times.

The Battlefalcon's flank hatches opened, and before Fisher could poke his head out, a gust of wind swept the sand and washed his face.

As the end point of the Mesopotamian plain, the Zagros Mountains in the northwest have always been considered a sparsely populated area, especially after the arrival of the Titans, the Iraqi government also specially relocated some civilians from remote areas to the plains, just because the Titans contracted this mountain range. As for the reason, it's very simple, this mountain range has mineral resources, and at the same time, the terrain is complex, and there are a lot of shelters, so it is very suitable to be used as a secret base, and the few big ships that the giant god is currently building are hiding under this mountain range.
