This time, however, Matt guessed the wrong outcome.

The national security side quickly found out the cache of the "shadow" image data sent by Matt through the mobile company, and determined that this was a major case of theft of secrets, and it had caused huge losses to the secrecy of our military's equipment research work. With the national security side having evidence of a large number of shadow images taken by Matt, they quickly submitted an arrest process and formally arrested Matt for "espionage".

For the US side, this is an unusual signal.

In their description, Matt is just a businessman and an outdoor enthusiast, and on the day of the incident, he "went on a camping camp near the DSM base, and inadvertently filmed something inappropriate while filming the scenery, but it was purely an accident, and I hope the Chinese side will understand." ”

The Chinese side categorically rejected the note from the US side, pointing out that the area where Matt appeared was clearly marked as a restricted military zone of the Chinese side, and that there was a large amount of evidence to prove that Mr. Matt was carrying out premeditated espionage activities.

By the way, the US CIA fished in Europe a few years ago to trap two Chinese intelligence officers, when the Chinese intelligence officers tried to buy a chip that was restricted from being exported to China by the United States through European transit, but unfortunately they fell into the CIA's fishing trap and were arrested by a European country at the request of the United States, and soon extradited to the United States.

In the previous spy encirclement and suppression case against Duke, they were basically internal moles, and they had to deal with the family scandal quietly and internally, but this time it was rare to get Matt, a CIA agent, to take all the stolen goods, and of course the national security wanted to take revenge on the Americans in a high-profile manner.

"Bruce, I don't care what method you use, anyway, I want our people to meet with Matt as soon as possible." Snyder was shocked by Matt's arrest, and directly called Bruce, the US ambassador to China, to ask for an all-out rescue of the CIA, which has close ties with embassies and consulates.

Snyder admired Matt as a very analytical agent, and was always satisfied with Matt's fruitful work in China, and Matt's arrest seemed to some CIA officials to be a bit presumptuous. But judging by the image intelligence sent back by Matt, Snyder thinks it's well worth it.

Because the latest Chinese version of the "Global Hawk" drone sent back by Matt is now surprisingly similar to the Global Hawk in service with the US military.

As soon as the consulate intelligence officer received the "Global Hawk" image sent back by Matt, the consulate intelligence officer was shocked by this unusual resemblance to the Global Hawk, and he almost immediately transmitted the image back to the CIA headquarters via satellite and handed it over to the intelligence analysis experts at the headquarters to analyze the special picture sent back by Matt.

Snyder was very surprised to receive this picture, because he couldn't tell the difference between the "Global Hawk" photographed by Matt and the U.S. Global Hawk, except for the different colors of the exterior paint.

He immediately thought of the fact that a few months ago, the U.S. military had gone missing a Global Hawk in the waters near China, and if the images sent back by Matt this time proved to be a real Global Hawk, then it was very likely that the U.S. military had gone missing before.

If this is the case, then the news is too shocking, the Chinese did not shoot down but captured the Global Hawk of the US military in its entirety, if this fact is confirmed, then almost all US stealth aircraft for the Chinese air defense forces, the so-called stealth is a joke. This will greatly shake the US military's air superiority position, and the loss of stealth effect will not be much different from the fourth-generation fighters of the US Air Force and the third-generation fighters.

Because from the perspective of stealth technology and new material technology, the Global Hawk is not inferior in stealth capability compared with the two main fighters F-22 and F-35, the main forces of the US military.

Fortunately, the preliminary results of the identification and analysis came out quickly, and the intelligence analysis experts confirmed that this was not the original Global Hawk used by the US military through a comprehensive analysis of the image, because the materials used were not correct.

This result made the CIA top brass breathe a sigh of relief, because if it could not be ruled out that the Global Hawk was the genuine version of the US military, then the CIA and the US military would have a lot of fun, and they would not only have to find out how to figure out the source of the Global Hawk, but also find out how the Chinese side used to crack the control system of the Global Hawk and operate the Global Hawk freely.

Until these issues are clarified, the U.S. military will not only dare not fly its Global Hawk close to China, but even F-22 and F-35 fighter jets will not be able to operate near China, because the risk of doing so is too high.

But even if intelligence analysts confirmed that it was a replica, the CIA's top brass did not dare to slack off, because experts pointed out that this new Chinese drone, which is highly similar to the Global Hawk, is not an extraordinary model, and is by no means a simple research model of the past, but a usable model of considerable quality.

Through the preliminary analysis of the size and manufacturing process of the drone from ground references, intelligence analysis experts believe that the drone is almost exactly the same as the real Global Hawk, that is, although the materials are different, the Chinese seem to have completely mastered the true size of the Global Hawk and imitated it, successfully creating China's own Global Hawk.

This is also a surprising fact, China already has the technical capability of Global Hawk production, although it is not clear how well it performs in other aspects, but in terms of shape dynamics, the Chinese have fully mastered the aerodynamic design of the Global Hawk.

It is impossible for the Chinese to do this simply by looking at a few public pictures of the Global Hawk, and this analysis shows two important facts: First, the Chinese side now basically understands the details of the aerodynamic design of the Global Hawk; Second, China has made great progress in UAV manufacturing technology, and now it is almost at the same level as the main UAV production and manufacturing team of the US military.

When did China's aviation manufacturing base rise to such a level?

Under these circumstances, Snyder became more aware of the importance of getting Matt out, and through Matt's first-hand observations of the situation and further detailed descriptions, the CIA was able to obtain intelligence information about China's new drone.

Unfortunately, the information obtained by Bruce from his negotiations with the Chinese diplomatic department shows that the Chinese side does not seem to be going to deal with Matt's theft of secrets in a low-key manner this time. They didn't even allow the U.S. Embassy to send someone to meet with Matt because "Matt's case is very serious and the Chinese authorities are investigating him."

The Chinese side only gave Matt a small clip of his life under arrest to prove that the Chinese side did not torture Matt.
