At an altitude of more than 12,000 meters, a C17 transport plane quietly swept over the Beibang border area, and as the plane door opened, 20 fully armed soldiers leaped down from the plane and slid down at extreme speed towards the 38th parallel Beibang control area.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary human beings cannot endure the extreme environment of low temperature, low pressure and lack of oxygen at an altitude of more than 10,000 meters without carrying any anti-pressure equipment and oxygen supply devices...... In the first part of the movie Iron Man, when Tony Stark experimented with Mark 2, it began to freeze at an altitude of 40,000 feet, that is, at an altitude of 12,000 meters, which led to loss of control.

And now, these twenty soldiers, without carrying any anti-pressure equipment and oxygen supply devices, but also carrying a large number of weapons and equipment, just rely on their bodies, to start the airborne from this height, this is simply appalling.

These twenty soldiers are the product of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Project 47.

"Sir, they've entered the airspace of the North Stick, and our radar can't detect them except for chip positioning," a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent reported while operating a computer.

"Very good, Agent Sitwell, since our Riffa can't detect them, it's even more unlikely that the North Stick will find them" Nick Fury, who was standing not far away, nodded, and then looked at Maria Hill not far away, "Are the anti-satellite missiles ready?" "Yes, sir, it is expected to be ready to fire in 5 minutes," Agent Hill replied immediately.

"Very well, we must destroy that satellite in the shortest possible time, and at the same time capture Makarov alive, there must be no mistakes in this operation," Nick Frey Lang said to everyone in the command.

As for the cause and process of this incident, with the intelligence ability of S.H.I.E.L.D., it is naturally very easy to know the entire ins and outs.

It is nothing more than Makarov, the number one terrorist in the world, who somehow got a powerful satellite weapon called Icarus and sold it to the North Bang government.

So the way to solve things is also very simple, just destroy that satellite weapon.

In Nick Fury, this is not a difficult thing, don't look at the technology of the earth today, the real space-based weapons have not been fully applied to practice, but anti-satellite weapons have long been available.

After all, although there have not been space-based weapons like Icarus before, there are not too many spy satellites of all kinds.

Therefore, as early as the Cold War, the two superpowers of the United States and the Soviet Union began to study various anti-satellite weapons, and now, not only the United States and Russia, but also many countries have a lot of anti-satellite weapons, and S.H.I.E.L.D. naturally also has this kind of technology.

The anti-satellite missile is a relatively mature anti-satellite weapon.

However, just destroying the satellite weapon is not the final result that Nick Fury needs, capturing Makarov alive and digging out the source of the satellite weapon from his mouth is their ultimate goal, after all, space-based weapons, whether it is the Security Council, or S.H.I.E.L.D. (HYDRA) are extremely hot.

In fact, not only the Security Council and S.H.I.E.L.D., but also the military and the White House are actually very interested in this space-based weapon.

But I have to say that Nick Fury's idea is still a little simpler, Chris can be regarded as bleeding heavily in order to direct this big scene, if Nick Fury is easily allowed to achieve his goal, isn't he digging this pit in vain?

Five minutes later, an air-based anti-satellite missile was successfully launched from an F15 fighter jet and flew towards Icarus.

Everyone in S.H.I.E.L.D. command watched intently at the trajectory of the missile on the screen, constantly approaching the satellite weapon called Icarus.

At the same time, the North Stick side also discovered the anti-satellite missile that was aimed at Icarus.

"Mr. Makarov, look?" Seeing that this missile was getting closer and closer to Icarus, General Li couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Don't worry, General Lee, Icarus's ability is more than a little bit," Makarov smiled and reassured, and then ordered his subordinates who were operating the satellite on the side, "Activate automatic defense mode"

The satellite weapon that Makarov sold to the North Stick called Icarus is very simple, in fact, it is to focus the sun's rays and use the strong light and heat of the sun's beam to hit the target...... To put it bluntly, the principle of this attack is similar to the principle of burning something with a magnifying glass...... Icarus is just a giant magnifying glass.

However, the principle is simple, but the power is not bad at all, and its reaction speed is also extremely fast, only slightly deflected the angle, and the huge beam that originally attacked the ground minefield enveloped the anti-satellite missile.

The missile, a precision weapon, is obviously unable to withstand this kind of high temperature, and in just a few seconds, this anti-satellite missile, which was pinned on by S.H.I.E.L.D., was dismembered into parts in space.

Seeing the destruction of the missile, there was a dead silence in the headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Can you use other anti-satellite weapons?" asked Nick Fury after a few seconds of silence.

"I'm sorry sir, I'm afraid it's difficult," Agent Sitwell replied with a somewhat ugly look on his face, "the anti-satellite missile is the most suitable weapon, it doesn't work, and the same goes for other anti-satellite weapons." ”

In general, there are four types of anti-satellite weapons.

The first type of direct ascent anti-satellite weapon does not need to enter the orbit of the target satellite, but only aims and attacks the target satellite when it passes overhead, and the anti-satellite missile belongs to this type.

The second is the co-orbital anti-satellite weapon, that is, launching a satellite into the orbit of the target satellite, then tracking it, and then using kinetic energy or nuclear explosion to destroy it, but obviously, like the anti-satellite missile, this weapon that requires the use of a launch vehicle is estimated to be knocked out by Icarus halfway.

The third is directed energy weapons, such as lasers and high-power microwave beams, which can completely destroy the satellite or disable it by radiating its sensitive electronic components, which may be a very effective attack if it is a normal satellite, but the Icarus satellite is, to some extent, a mirror.

Using a laser or microwave oven to hit a reflective mirror? Silly, right?

The last way is electromagnetic interference, disconnecting the connection between the other party's satellite and the ground, but this is also not reliable, because satellites generally have automatic programs, and the ghost knows what the other party's automatic program is? What if it is set to automatically strike at important areas of each country after losing control? Who will bear the final result?

Obviously, S.H.I.E.L.D., which is already on the cusp of the seal, can't afford this responsibility.

So for a while, S.H.I.E.L.D. didn't have any way to deal with the current situation.

"In other words, we can only pin our hopes on Project 47 now?" Nick Fury asked, looking more and more ugly.

"I'm afraid so......"

………………………………

Just when Nick Fury was in a hurry, Chris's private plane at a military base in the central region of the United States slowly landed in the military airport, followed by a VTOL transport plane.

And at the airport, the Secretary of Defense, General Ross and other military bigwigs have been waiting here for a long time
