Chapter 571: Oh my God, 2.4 billion lost
After Mu Yang saw this string of literal numbers, a burst of joy rose in his heart, and finally let himself find them, these big wooden boxes, each of which is about 5 meters long and 1 meter 5 wide in diameter, Mu Yang counted carefully, there are a total of 54 boxes, but they are not put together.
Among them, there are 20 boxes, which are placed inside, about ten meters away, and another 34 boxes are stacked, and on the other side, there are also some smaller boxes, and there are quite a few of them, but Muyang didn't count them.
"F-119-PW-100", Mu Yang unconsciously touched the box.
This is supposed to be the engine used by the F-22 Raptor fighter, yes, but why is it split into two parts? Muyang circled around the wooden box again, and found that the place where the 24 wooden boxes were stacked here were all stamped with a red seal, with a capital M in the middle, but the 20 boxes did not have the word M.
Muyang didn't know about it, but it didn't prevent him from moving all these things, these are all good things, the cost of Pratt & Whitney to produce these engines is about more than 8 million US dollars each, and then equip them to the US military, about 12 million US dollars, but if Muyang sells them, it is estimated that the price will still increase, after all, is it rare and expensive.
Put these big boxes into the space one by one, and then transfer them to the treasure vault for storage, even those smaller boxes were not spared, although Muyang didn't know what they were for, but since they were together, let's take them together. Anyway, I can't get tired.
After more than ten minutes of work, the warehouse, which used to be full of large wooden boxes, has now become clean and slippery.
Mu Yang exited the storeroom. Then he quietly came to another warehouse, and when he opened this warehouse, he was really stunned, because inside, there were more large wooden boxes stacked here, oh my God, is it all fighter engines? How many of them are there?
I went up to check with a fluorescent flashlight, and in a corner of the box, I finally found the signs on these boxes. “F135-pw-100”。 Muyang was stunned, could it be, could it be the engine of the F-35, known as the most powerful fighter engine in history.
Muyang was happy again. If these are F135-pw-100 engines. That's developed.
Whatever it looks like there are so many engines here, now is not the time to think about them, put them all in the space, and move to your own treasure trove.
In the end, the number recorded by Mu Yang was 88, watching the more than 100 large boxes decrease one by one in the warehouse, while his own space treasure trove was slowly increasing, Mu Yang felt a sense of wireless satisfaction in his heart.
And in this warehouse. There are also some slightly smaller boxes, but Muyang still hasn't let go. Take it all.
In fact, Muyang didn't know, he was really lucky this time, and dared to go on the large-scale procurement of the US military, a few days ago, Japan ordered 55 F-35 joint fighters from the United States at a price of $160 million each, and the US military increased the production of F-35, plus the original production task, so this time there was a move to produce so many engines at one time.
And those smaller boxes are the supporting parts of these engines. In fact, in another warehouse, the 54 boxes collected by Muyang were all F119-pw-100 fighter engines, but not all of them were new.
Those boxes covered with the red M character are engines sent by the U.S. military for maintenance and replacement parts, while the other 20 boxes are new engines produced for the U.S. military's F-22s. Of course, those small boxes are also spare parts for these aircraft.
The U.S. military had only 184 F-22 Raptor fighters in total, because the production was expensive at that time, and some officers said that they could not find an opponent after production, so they were finally discontinued, which made the manufacturer Lockheed Martin Corporation, on the F-22, Lockheed Martin did not make any money at all, and the US government withdrew the order.
Pratt & Whitney, as the provider of the F-22 engine, developed this engine specifically for the F-22 to have a strong heart, but it was only produced more than 100 before it was discontinued, and Pratt & Whitney's loss was not small, but they also had an advantage, those fighters always had to be maintained, and the U.S. government still had to pay for them at that time.
Now, those F-22 engines have reached their service life one after another, and they have begun to be sent to Pratt & Whitney in batches for maintenance, but there are also damaged ones that must be replaced with new engines, so Pratt & Whitney has produced a batch of spare, that is, the 20 new engines.
Therefore, this time Muyang caught up, otherwise, it would be good to be able to find more than ten or twenty engines in the warehouse, how could such a large amount of inventory appear all of a sudden.
Now that the task has been completed, Muyang is full of joy, out of the warehouse, Muyang swiped his card to leave the work area, came to the parking lot, and then drove in the parking lot, drove away from the Pratt & Whitney Aircraft Engine Manufacturing Plant, and headed for Quebec.
As for what will happen to the Pratt & Whitney factory, Muyang has no interest in knowing. He plans to take a good walk around Quebec City, which is said to be a particularly ecological city with the largest number of castles in North America.
After going to work the next day, someone finally found out that the factory had been stolen, and then the entire Pratt & Whitney factory entered a state of alert, and then notified the local government police department and the U.S. Pratt & Whitney headquarters.
Although this factory is located in Canada, it is indeed an American factory, and it is also a military enterprise that produces the most advanced fighter engines in the United States, so the United States immediately sent the most elite CIA agents to start investigating the matter with all their might.
It was a big deal, involving 54 F-22 Raptor engines, 88 F-35 engines, and even the parts were lost, with a total value of about $2.4 billion.
Oh my God, that's an astronomical sum.
Such a big theft case has once again shaken the US political arena, and this time it also involves US homeland security, after all, the engines of the two most powerful fighter jets in the United States were stolen, and the engine manufacturing technology will inevitably be leaked, which is also a heavy blow to the United States.
Then the CIA asked what the stolen computers and data were for, and the engineers told the detectives that those computers stored detailed data about the engines produced in those factories, mainly installation data, but those data were also an important part of engine production, and they were also a secret of a factory.
If others get those data, save trouble, do not need to measure and calculate, directly use the data in the computer and can, and the production, assembly, maintenance process is sent in full, others take those instructions, directly can do their own post-maintenance. (To be continued.) )
