Chapter 139: Espionage
In the East China Sea, the red morning sun has just risen to a point, and against the background of the light blue sky, several conspicuous rays of sunlight are reflected in the crimson morning glow, pouring on the hull of the Jiangsu ship, which is very warm and pleasant.
The sea breeze blew softly across the deck, waving the five-star red flag fluttering on the island, and the sailors dressed in various colors began their day's work on the slightly undulating deck.
"The flight deck is empty." A staff member on the deck radioed the take-off control commander to the commanding officer: "Inspection procedure No. 32 has been carried out and item 33 is being carried out. ”
"The centralized control room understands." After the communication officer in the centralized control room answered, he immediately reported the actual situation information collected on the deck. The full name of the centralized control room is called the centralized control room, which is generally used for the centralized control management of a certain project, such as the mechanical and electrical aspect, there is a special mechanical and electrical centralized control room, and the mechanical and electrical centralized control room is generally responsible for the three main functions of power, electricity and cabin.
The take-off of the carrier-based aircraft requires an electromagnetic catapult as one of the take-off powers, so the person in charge of the relevant work on the deck will report the situation to the centralized control room after checking the catapult, which is also managed and controlled by the electromechanical centralized control room. After receiving the information conveyed by the deck personnel, there will be special personnel to sort out the intelligence information, and then the telephone operators in the centralized control room, that is, the communication troops, will report the collected information to the CIC, that is, the combat command and control center, and finally the CIC will make arrangements for specific affairs.
Aircraft carrier operations are the result of the orderly operation of a whole set of systems, and once any mistake occurs in any of them, it may cause serious consequences, so no one dares to relax too much whether it is the deck crew who can let the wind on the deck, or the fighters in the engine room all the way to the ground ten floors below the flight deck.
Even the relatively idle carrier-based aircraft pilots must ensure the most basic physical and mental state that can participate in the battle at any time at any time, such as the current Xia Yu, except for a group of pilots who were on night standby last night, the other pilots who slept normally, even if they were not on standby, had already gotten up and washed, came to the fitness cabin to move their bodies, and carried out their daily routine physical reserve exercises.
Xia Yu, who was laughing and talking with his comrades-in-arms, would not know at this time that the heads of the CIA Intelligence Bureau, one of the world's four major intelligence agencies, were holding a meeting and discussing his affairs.
In the careful conference room in front of the CIA director's office, Paul McQueen played a video of the aerial combat made by the technicians to others to watch, the content of the video is composed of real captured pictures and 3D composite effect pictures, which is the original Xia Yu piloted the J-31 to drive away the F35 and clashed with Japanese fighters in the East China Sea. The intense aerial combat in the picture looks just as good as Hollywood's powerful special effects.
"We have to characterize this pilot first." After watching the entire video, Paul McQueen pointed to the cockpit of the J-15 in the picture and said: "My analysts have given this pilot a code name, because it is very likely that he will fly different planes everywhere, and they will call him a flyer." ”
"Flyer?" Nate Hendrix raised an eyebrow and said without commenting on the codename, "Okay, Paul, has the identity of our Mr. Flyer been investigated now?" ”
"No, the identity of the trapeze can't be investigated yet." Paul McQueen said: "What we can now determine is that the flyer was a carrier-based pilot on the aircraft carrier Jiangsu, and our analysts believe that the flyer is likely to be a test pilot of the former Chinese Air Force test flight unit, so he will have the experience of flying the J-31 test model." As a kind of aircraft that takes off on flat ground, it is also very possible that the Shenlong manned space plane will transfer test pilots from the test flight unit to participate in the test of this project. ”
"I'm sure you've seen it too." Paul McQueen pointed to the display screen and said: "This man's aerial combat skills are extremely good, arguably the most powerful pilot in subsonic combat I have ever seen, and I think I can agree with such a test pilot with excellent flying skills to participate in the test flight program of the aerospace aircraft." ”
"Well, I agree." White Kennedy nodded and said: "Our question now is, since we have participated in the development plan of the Shenlong Good Aerospace Aircraft, why does this flying man appear on the carrier-based aircraft pilot sequence of the Jiangsu aircraft carrier, is the owner of these three voices really the same person?" ”
Hearing White Kennedy's question, Paul McQueen said: "This is also one of the questions of the intelligence department's analyst team, but according to the voiceprint comparison, the three voices should be from the same person, which we have just confirmed." The next thing I think we need to do is find a way to narrow down the search and determine the true identity of Mr. Flyer. At present, according to the information we have received, the number of carrier-based aircraft of the Jiangsu aircraft carrier, including helicopters and early warning aircraft, should be between 45 and 60 people, and I think we should let the intelligence personnel find a way to get the list of carrier-based aircraft pilots of the Jiangsu aircraft carrier, so that we are very likely to directly confirm the identity of the flyer, which is conducive to our next operation. ”
"It can't be." Nate Hendricks, deputy director of the Operations Division, shook his head and said: "The personnel information of the Jiangsu aircraft carrier battle group is highly confidential by the Chinese government, and if we want to obtain relevant information, it is very likely that our senior intelligence officers will be exposed, and in terms of intelligence at this stage, it will be more than worth the loss." ”
"But if the flying man is really the test pilot of the Shenlong aerospace plane, the information we can get from him will be of great help to us, and I think even if one or two high-level intelligence officers are exposed, this benefit is still worth the risk." Bacsdale, deputy director of the Science and Technology Department, said: "NASA is also working on the reality of hypersonic vehicles, but the power configuration combination has never been able to really mature and stabilize. We have also been following the reality of China's hypersonic vehicle, but we have never obtained their manned space aircraft has been successfully developed and entered the stage of practical application, if it is not for the space debris incident, I am afraid we do not know that China already has a manned space vehicle, this point, the Ministry of Intelligence is a little derelict in its duties. ”
Paul McQueen frowned, it is not surprising that the CIA is fighting openly and secretly, or that the CIA is keen on infighting with each other. If you have the opportunity, whoever you are, you're happy to embarrass each other a little, including Paul McQueen himself. Therefore, although he was openly ridiculed by Bacchusdale, Paul McQueen did not get angry because of this, but said: "China is not weaker than us in terms of intelligence warfare, I will not let senior intelligence personnel suffer losses, the intelligence lag of manned aerospace vehicles is not too strict, at least in terms of the information obtained so far, China has only produced a technical verification aircraft for the Shenlong aerospace aircraft, and at the moment that plane is still floating in lunar orbit." ”
After a pause, Paul McQueen said: "We can put aside the matter of the aerospace aircraft for the time being, and we should give priority to confirming the identity information of the flyer, whether the other party is likely to rebel, and then we can arrange personnel to meet with him, or find a way to get the aerospace plane or other information from his mouth, my analysis team believes that the level of the flyer in the personnel intelligence record can be upgraded to the second level, we must obtain the identity information of the flyer more accurately, and we need to strengthen his monitoring operations." ”
After a moment of silence, White Kennedy said, "Okay, I agree to raise the information filing of the flying man to level two, Paul, I need more detailed information about the flying man, and then I will consider whether to risk exposing senior intelligence officers to contact the other party, understand?" ”
"Yes, I see." Paul McQueen nodded, then said, "I'll do my best to submit more detailed information." ”
