Chapter 61: The Bird Helicopter
Chapter 61: Bird Helicopter
The Bird Helicopter, the full name of the VB-02 vertical take-off and landing aircraft, only existed as a prototype at the outbreak of the Great War, but the war accelerated its development progress, and the appearance of this multi-purpose tilt-wing helicopter can already be seen in the Battle of Inkrange. This high-performance next-generation aircraft was originally scheduled to begin installation in the U.S. military in 2087, but in the mid-to-late stages of the Great War, some test machines were produced and used by the Enclave to transport members or government officials to Enclave bases or other shelters.
In the post-war world, the Enclave was basically the only one to have a large number of Bird helicopters as carriers, and the Republic of New California also had a small Bird Force. These vehicles have a highly armored fuselage and can be equipped with a variety of offensive weapons, typically laser gatling guns, rocket launchers, or miniature nuclear launchers. It can be used for surgical aerial strikes or close-range aerial fire support.
When Su Jing ran out of Vault Eighty-Seven, he saw a Bird helicopter using a laser Gatling gun from its nose to strafe the super mutants below. The condescending helicopter gunship has always been the biggest killer of the infantry, and the pilot on the flying bird is methodically using machine guns to clear the green-skinned mutants that are still active on the ground one by one. The mutants on the ground suffer from the fact that they have no heavy firepower and cannot hit the nimble helicopters in the sky. Occasionally, a few mutants tried to return fire with shotguns, but they couldn't break through the helicopter's casing at all, and the bullets were ricocheted off.
With a roar, a boss-level super mutant dragged a man-portable missile launcher out of a hidden spot and fired at the Bird Helicopter in the sky. The pilots in the helicopter didn't seem to expect the mutants to be able to make a decent counterattack, and the evasive maneuvers were a little too late, and the missiles flew past the cabin before exploding in the air. At the sound of the mutants' battle cries, the helicopter was swept up in the explosion and shook and spun sharply. flew more than ten meters crookedly, but finally stabilized the fuselage.
In return, the missile launcher hanging from the side of the helicopter fired two missiles in succession, directly hitting the mutant leader who was still cheering - or beside him, Su Jing felt that the effect of this weapon hitting you was no different from hitting your feet, and you would definitely be dead anyway.
The helicopter circled twice in the air to make sure that there were no more living super mutants in the field of sight, and then noticed Su Jing standing at the door of the shelter in a daze, and then swept over with a laser without hesitation.
Su Jing threw his backpack to the ground, directly holding the ion pistol in one hand and the saber in the other, and began to run quickly. The torrential rain of laser beams chased all the way behind him, and he had to change direction several times at high speed halfway, but fortunately, it was quite convenient for his current body to make these movements, otherwise he would have been shot several times and would have fallen to the ground now.
"Cut...... The plasma pistol should be able to wreak havoc on this thing. ”
Su Jing turned over in the process of running, and the ion pistol in his hand fired again and again, and the plasma beam hit the belly of the Asuka helicopter, melting a large piece of armor. The helicopter also seemed to sense the powerful destructive power of Su Jing's weapon, and began to make various tactical maneuvers.
With a loud roar, Super Mutant Fawkes walked out of Vault Eighty-Seven with a laser Gatling, he calmly aimed at the Bird Helicopter, two heavy fire machine guns fired at the same time, shrouding the helicopter in a barrage like a heavy rain, the rapidly rising cabin temperature made the Bird Helicopter feel dangerous, but after all, the distance was too far, and the laser beam shot was extremely limited, and it could not pose much threat to the energy system in the cabin in a short time. With a light turn of the airplane, the missile launcher on the flank began to aim at Su Jing, intending to force the laser fire and blow this dangerous person to pieces like the previous mutant leader.
Su Jing gritted his teeth and ran towards the super mutant, without words, his strong telepathic ability had already expressed his meaning to Fawkes without doubt. Fox dropped the laser machine gun and held his arms horizontally, Su Jing jumped directly onto his arm, and shouted, "Use your full strength!" ”
The mutant nodded heavily, spread his legs in a horse-like stride, and then with a roar, he threw Su Jing up with all his strength, and the latter also gathered the strength of his legs, and kicked the mutant's arm with all his strength without mercy, and then jumped into the sky. The mutant was hit with all his strength, and his huge body couldn't resist the impact, and he staggered back several steps in a row.
Combining the incomparable strength of the two humanoid monsters into one, Su Jing flew high towards the Bird Helicopter. This helicopter probably never thought that anyone could do such an exaggerated human raid, and it had been hovering at a low altitude of about twenty meters, and now it was too late to pull up the altitude, Su Jing had already rushed straight like a flying fire meteor.
"Dream Cannon - Power Sanctions!!"
His arms flickered and fluctuated, and a pair of power fists appeared on the outer layers of his fists, and the majestic force of the nuclear fusion battery and his own impact kinetic energy and muscle power merged into one, like an extra-large bullet in the front of the cockpit of the Bird helicopter.
Early Bird helicopters used bubble cockpits for a while, but after actual combat testing and improvement, the Enclave is now equipped with the same heavy armor as the fuselage, leaving only a few narrow observation slits for the pilot. But it was this heavy cab armor that produced deep cracks under Su Jing's domineering punch that surpassed the limit.
Hit by this huge force, the helicopter directly lost its balance and spun uncontrollably in the air, and Su Jing was almost thrown off. His left hand clasped the hollow in the cockpit, and his right fist mercilessly slammed into the crumbling and crumbling armor, and after three blows, the armor was finally punched out of a large hole by his iron fist.
Su Jing made persistent efforts, his legs clamped the deformed armor, and a pair of fierce fists hit the armor like a rainstorm, and the front face of the overwhelmed cockpit was finally completely blasted open by him, and the two pilots inside were looking at this monster with a look of horror. This position is the absolute dead end of the helicopter fire, and the co-pilot seems to have pulled out his pistol and wants to kill Su Jing directly, but the black-haired youth has already drilled in from the hole, and his left fist is imprinted on the co-pilot's face, this blow breaks his neck, and then a whip leg of his right foot is whipped in the driver's face, and the latter tilts his head and loses consciousness.
The helicopter was still spinning, and Su Jing cut the driver's seat belt, then threw the unconscious Enclave soldier aside and sat in the driver's seat.
"Uh...... How does this thing work? ”
There is a huge red button that is protected in the glass cover, which exudes a strange and dangerous aura at a glance, if it is another day, then Su Jing will definitely press it directly to see what interesting consequences will be, but thinking of dealing with the surprise attack of the Enclave, he forcibly pressed down the playfulness and began to seriously study the helicopter's piloting system.
Fortunately, he started to study mechanics some time ago, and the perspective of the demon hunter insect could observe the internal circuit flow direction of the button switch, and the system was not very complicated, Su Jing finally controlled the rotation of the helicopter in more than ten seconds, and the shaking of the helicopter slowed down, and then slowly descended.
Because Su Jing was not sure which switch controlled the landing gear, this precious flying bird helicopter directly smashed to the ground with a belly boom, and Su Jing always felt that there was an ominous wail inside the machine, maybe some internal device was destroyed.
"It should ...... It's not a big deal to fly. ”
The Flying Bird helicopter had a hatch on each side of the fuselage, and as soon as Su Jing pushed open the hatch, he saw Fox's big face. The super mutants seemed to want to see inside the helicopter and squeezed straight up.
"Wow...... Don't crash the plane...... What do I rely on you for!? ”
Ignoring Su Jing's screams, Fox climbed into the cockpit in front, his huge body was squeezed into the cockpit and it was miserable, his ass just sat in the driver's seat, and with a bang, the back of the seat made of high-strength materials was directly broken from it. The super mutant continued to ravage the chair unimpressedly, finally resting his giant body on the stool.
"Oh my God, Uncle Fu, this isn't for you to play with, it's an important tool for us to defeat the Enclave...... Think about the future of the wasteland! Justice! Light! Salvation! Water Purification Meter!! Or whatever you like! Uh......"
As Fawkes's thick fingers began to flick switches nimbly, the helicopter seemed to regain life, and the engines on both sides of the fuselage began to hum steadily and reliably. The mutant's movements were sluggish at first, as if searching for memories in his mind, and then he became more and more proficient.
With a light shock, the helicopter began to leave the ground, and then slowly ascended. As the mutant tried to make a few moves, the helicopter began to fly nimbly through the air, and then it began to climb straight higher. The armor panel in front had been shattered by Su Jing, and now the view was good, looking down on the wasteland from this height, as if the entire gray earth was under his feet. Ruined cities, desolate fields, monuments that remain but still stand, faint human populations, and eternally iron-gray skies and clouds – this is the capital of the last days, this is the Washington of the wasteland!
The strong wind in the wilderness poured into the cockpit, and Su Jing, who had been eating dust on the ground for a long time, was suddenly washed by this fierce wind, and couldn't help but let out a scream of excitement.
"Haha Where did you learn this trick? That's great!! ”
The super mutant laughed lowly, and Fawkes, who was operating the helicopter, was obviously in a very happy mood, and he said loudly, "Who knows? Everyone has their secrets, as if I never asked you how you managed to mutate. ”
"Well, Fawkes, follow me! You're my chief driver! ”
"Hehehe, I'm going to think about it a little longer. But now that I have this helicopter, I don't think I'll be thinking about it for too long. ”
"Then let you think about it for a while! Now, let's fly for a while!! ”
