Chapter 0677 - Ants Move
At the beginning of March '92, a theft of an extremely bad nature occurred in HESA, near Isfahan, where a special tool in a repair workshop disappeared for no apparent reason.
This must be a despicable means of an evil enemy!
Major General Tay, who was in charge of HESA, was furious. His first reaction after receiving a report from his subordinates was that enemy agents or lackeys had infiltrated the factory area.
In this regard, Eagle Sauce has a criminal record.
After the fall of the Pahlavi dynasty, Persia was turned upside down. Almost all the pilots and technical officers in the army were loyal to the old king, and they were immediately and ruthlessly purged.
But later, when the Iran-Iraq war broke out, Saddam Hussein was fully equipped with Soviet-style equipment and was violent. Persia had to bring back the suppressed Tomcat pilots and ground crews to rejoin the army and take to the skies for combat duty.
For military personnel who have been trained in foreign countries, this kind of condescending attitude is naturally not pleasant. Someone is inevitably secretly wreaking havoc, such as breaking the guidance head of the 'Immortal Bird' missile.
For the 'unreliable' guys, Major General Tay has to use them and guard against them, and he also has to find a way to squeeze out the technology in their hands.
In this case, the Tomcat's accuracy has been fluctuating. Your Excellency Major General is more ferocious, the better the fighter plane is safer, and if you relax a little, the accuracy rate will drop sharply.
If you can get the job done with ferocity, it's easy. But the ferocity is too much, and the 'unreliable' guys often do some irreversible damage, such as losing some special repair tools.
Modern weapons and equipment are highly specialized industrial products, and the F-14A fighter is known for being difficult to maintain.
Its engine and variable-swept wing are troubles within troubles. If you want to maintain this kind of treasure, even an air wrench is often made by the original factory, and it cannot be replenished if it is broken.
"Are you trying to force me to shoot a few people? Or send your family to jail for a few days? ”
In a maintenance workshop, the major general gathered the ground crew who had lost their tools and shouted and cursed. He was furious, and his countenance was terrifying.
More than half of the ground crew in overalls were old, and they shivered at the shouts of the major general, and their faces turned pale. Several apprentices were also frightened and at a loss.
"Nobody speaks, does it?"
Major General Tay was furious. If this kind of thing happens in the factory area he manages, once it is reported, it will definitely be 'unable to eat, go around'. This will not only affect his future, but even his life.
Facing the major general's fleshy and fleshy face, an old diligent begged for mercy bitterly: "All tools will be registered and counted every day, and there will be records of receipt and storage. We don't know how we lost it. ”
"You don't know? Thirteen pneumatic wrenches, five linear measuring rulers, and even a folding crane for engine disassembly.
If there are no inner ghosts, how can these devices disappear for no reason? There must still be your accomplices in the factory. Maybe there are enemy spies outside the factory. ”
Rear Admiral Tay pounced like a hungry tiger in front of the ground crew who were being reprimanded, staring at these 'unreliable' elements one by one.
The ground crew stood nervously stiff, staring ahead, no one daring to avoid their eyes for fear of arousing greater suspicion. In the past, some companions were sent directly to prison because they were frightened to dodge.
"Now give an account of the tools and accomplices, I can still forgive you, and if I find out who is responsible for the sabotage, I will send your entire group to be punished. Don't even let your family escape. ”
The major general was scolding, and the group that was reprimanded was already like chaff.
Several uniformed guards came in from outside the maintenance workshop and walked behind the major general and whispered a few words in their ears. The major general's expression suddenly changed greatly, and he shouted viciously: "It's not just this workshop that has lost something? ”
It's even worse.
Major General Tay hurried to several other repair workshops, and the more information he gathered, the bigger the sweat droplets on his forehead. How many wrenches are missing? Less stuff more.
Special fighter maintenance power supply, hydraulic trolley for disassembling and assembling landing gear, ultrasonic flaw detection equipment with detection and diagnosis function, and so on.
"How so? The number of thefts is so large and so wide, that you are only reporting now? ”
Major General Tay really wanted to suck his own waste to death. With so much stuff missing, it's definitely a super big case. He himself must be implicated.
The subordinates were also trembling, "The maintenance staff didn't dare to report it after finding that the tools were missing, so they always wanted to look for it themselves first, or simply hide it." I couldn't hide it before I reported it, but the matter expanded. ”
If there is a theft in the factory area where the 'Tomcat' is maintained, the young man will first do an internal investigation to find out. But as the investigation deepened, he found that there were countless things that had been stolen.
The thief doesn't just want to repair tools, he wants almost everything. From wing box bearings to special screws, from fuselage frames to discarded brake discs, from spare engines to on-board electronics.
When Major General Tay rushed around the entire factory area, he found that the place he was guarding seemed to be full of loopholes. On weekdays, no one dares to report it, but after the investigation, it is reported everywhere.
Especially when the iron door was opened in the warehouse where fighter spare parts were stored in the factory area, the major general standing outside the door was directly dizzy, and the management behind him was all stunned.
The warehouses that were originally full of scrapped fighter wreckage have been reduced by half, and some areas have been almost emptied.
Not to mention any spare parts, even the 'Tomcat' body, which is nearly 20 meters long, more than 10 meters wide, and has an empty weight of 10 tons, is gone. A careful count shows that there are thirteen missing.
"Who? Who did this? ”
Major General Tay's eyes were black and shaky. The guards behind him hurriedly supported him, and even the management of the factory tried their best to comfort him.
When the sky fell, there was a tall man on top, and now Major General Tay is a 'tall man', and he must go to the top.
How can a few large warehouses of thousands of square meters and at least a few hundred tons of scrapped fighters be missing so many things?
The 'inner ghost' who did this is too ruthless, this is a direct slap in the face of the Persians!
Although all the planes that were lost could no longer be repaired, the Persians relied on these 'organ donors' to maintain the remaining twenty or thirty 'Tomcats'.
Even a turbofan blade, an airborne chip, a fuel line, and a hydraulic component are precious to Persia.
Now reliable, I don't know that the guy who lacks virtue and smokes is engaged in 'ant moving', and he is secretly clearing the warehouse. He not only moved fighter planes, but also carried on-board weapons.
Persia bought more than 280 'immortal birds' and used half of them. Only 40 percent of the remaining half are still functional.
Probably dozens of missiles were scrapped because of the failure of the battery in the built-in system. As for these scrapped missiles, Persia was reluctant to throw them away, and tried to restore them by all means.
However, the warehouses where the missiles were stored were also stolen, and many missile racks were looted.
In order to cover up, the thieves even made some missiles and put them in the warehouse. From a distance, this thing looks like the real thing, and when you get closer, you realize that it is a layer of painted wood.
It's too lacking in virtue, it's really lacking in virtue!
There are even more immoral ones.
