Don't talk about martial arts, I'm a war contractor

Chapter 552: The treasure chest in the hangar is full of treasures

"The aircraft are in good condition and the damage is not serious."

After checking every A-29 with a flashlight, Xia Yu said with satisfaction.

After all the Magnesian people have withdrawn, the wings of these Toucans will be removed, and the An-124 can carry away these 15 propeller attack aircraft in one sortie.

"Then my mission is complete here. But before I leave, I have a piece of news for you. There may be some good stuff for the Army in the B4 hangar."

Jonathan spoke up.

He will take the flight to evacuate Afuhan tomorrow night, probably because he is enjoying working with Xia Yu, she pointed out.

There is no way. After twenty years of accumulation, the magnesium army has left behind too many supplies and equipment, some of which are valuable and some are worthless.

It would take several months for Jihuo Defense to take full inventory, but their time is very limited. Once Tata takes over Kabuer, they will have to exchange their services for it.

Therefore, cars that are heavy and take up space have the lowest cost-effectiveness, and you should give priority to those that are more valuable.

For example, among the large items, there are various types of aircraft, and among the small items... It's a pity that all the AGM-114 Hellfires were taken to Shat, otherwise Joe would like to bring his colleagues along to make another fortune.

"Hangar B4? I see. Please take this."

Xia Yu took out a 1kg piece of local specialty that had just been printed and stuffed it into Jonathan's hand.

"Hey, when you come to New York, you must come see me and we can have a drink together."

After figuring out what it was, Old Joe quickly raised his other hand to gesture for a wine glass.

"We can get together in Seattle if we have a chance. My branch is there. And what about Xia De? Come over soon."

Xia Yu turned around and shouted at Xiao Youzi halfway through his speech.

"coming."

"This guy is the curator of the FHC Museum. Give Uncle Jonathan a lifetime ticket. With this card, you can bring the whole family to play together."

Xiao Youzi handed Old Joe a titanium alloy card like a business card.

As the museum director, he always carries seven or eight of these lifetime tickets with him, and he gives them to whoever his father tells him to.

Jonathan is now a brigadier general, but he is young, and he has been in Afuhan before, so he will definitely retire as a major general like Lao Tang, so this relationship still needs to be managed.

"Wow, it turns out that our little Xia De is also a curator. It's our honor. I will bring my wife and children to Seattle to play when I have time."

Old Joe said with a smile as he took the lifetime ticket handed over by Xiao Youzi.

The curator’s son is also the curator. This family is quite interesting. It just so happens that he also wants to manage this network well. After all, his salary and pension are just a few dollars!
After seeing Old Joe off the next night, the whole family, young and old, boarded the Sherlock and took off into the air to sleep, and then landed again after dawn.

After breakfast, Liv brought Charlotte, and the three of them came to the B16 hangar in a 4 Polaris MRZR-D4 special operations assault vehicle.

This light all-terrain tactical vehicle (ATV) is relatively cheap, costing less than $2 each. There were dozens of them at the airport, but none of the Chinese took any away, as they could buy new ones later.

Driving the car directly into the B4 hangar, Xia Yu pulled the power switch, and several lights illuminated the spacious yet crowded interior space of the hangar.

Old Joe said that everything here belongs to the army, so what could the army have?

"Dad, look, there's a car over there."

The sharp-eyed little Youzi saw the half exposed track.

Could it be the M1A2 main battle tank?

Ten years ago, the Chinese actually deployed Abrams in Afghanistan, and later asked Canada to borrow Leopard 2A6M, but in the past two years there have only been wheeled platforms, so it is impossible for main battle tanks to appear in the B4 hangar.

The exposed tracks are of a TALON 4 bomb disposal robot. Perhaps because the track platform is equipped with a robotic arm, the code name "Claw" is still very vivid.

It's just that it's quite old. It entered the service of the Magnesian Army before the Magnesians intervened in Afghanistan. It seems that the TALON 5 model was launched a few years later, and its price was much more expensive than the Polaris he drove.

However, this model can replace the combat module and use machine guns and grenade launchers for unmanned combat.

Of course, bomb disposal is its main job. On a part-time basis, it can also be used for battlefield rescue. The vehicle's 340 kg traction capacity can drag the wounded away from dangerous areas.

Xia Yu walked over and lifted the plastic sheet that was blocking the dust, revealing a larger number of bomb disposal robots behind it.

"Six TALON 6s and three TALON 4s? Do you want to play with remote-controlled cars?"

He turned to Shad and Ciel and asked.

"miss you!"

The two brothers replied in unison that no boy could resist such a remote-controlled crawler vehicle. The bomb disposal robot that was worth tens of thousands of dollars many years ago looked more attractive than a toy excavator that cost thousands of RMB.

But it is also more difficult to serve. Even with the help of Dad, it will take the two brothers half a year to figure it out.

So, is this the good stuff that Old Joe was talking about?

But a total of 9 bomb disposal robots are not worth 100 million!

Leaving his two sons here to study TALON 4 and TALON 5, Xia Yu picked up a crowbar and continued to explore deeper into the hangar.

He randomly pried open the wooden frame of a pallet, revealing boxes of ammunition stacked inside with the words "5.56mm" spray-painted on them.

It turned out to be bullets. A pallet of 5.56mm ammunition like this should be able to sell for a lot of money in the civilian market. However, military surplus bullets are more powerful than factory bullets.

However, the 5.56mm caliber is rarely used in concentrated fire defense, so Xia Yu recovered the box and the bullets together, and would print full-power bullets when he returned.

But bullets are not valuable in Afghanistan, right?
He opened several pallets and found that they were all filled with bullets of various calibers. It was not until Xia Yu came to the innermost part and saw the piles against the wall that he realized that what was inside should not be bullets.

When I opened it, I found that the things inside were much more expensive than bullets.

"Is this a Switchblade-300?"

Xia Yu had known about this cruise missile a long time ago, but he had never had the chance to see it in person. He never expected that the Chinese had just abandoned this thing and no longer cared about it.

But think about it, this thing only costs $6000 a shot, and is only equivalent to 3 Hydra rockets.

In their eyes, only weapons with a unit price of over ten thousand yuan are qualified to be taken away, and individual weapons worth a few thousand yuan are not worth much.

But thinking about the AT-4 that was on the same flight as the APKWS II, and whether it was destroyed, it might have been accidentally missed due to management confusion!

The time is tight and the task is heavy. There are multiple military branches, and the local people need to be evacuated. It is normal to miss some things, which were just picked up by Xia Yu.

He immediately began to count the number of switchblade-300s in the batch, and found that there were a total of 634 rounds.

At a price of $6000, plus the matching flight control system, this batch of cruise missiles is worth about 500 million, but this is the price for the magnesium army's own use.

If it is sold to foreign countries, even if it is tripled, 3 million is a bit low, which is why the Chinese want to develop their own cruise missiles instead of just buying a batch of Javelin as before. As a professional anti-armor and anti-personnel individual weapon, it is normal for the price to be a little more expensive than the consumer-grade drones you modify yourself, but you can't make it that expensive!
All in all, this batch of Switchblade-300 Xia Yu is not planned to be exported, but it is very suitable for using as long-range firepower supplement for FPV self-destruct drones.

But 10 kilometers is still a bit close. He thinks the image transmission control of the drone will soon be able to be upgraded to this distance, and by then the 634 rounds will be almost enough!
Put fire-defense seals on these Switchblade-300 pallets, and once the magnesium people have withdrawn, Xia Yu will give priority to evacuating them from Afuhan.

In the next few days, he continued to open the treasure chests in the hangar with his sons. However, they were all printers, electronic waste discarded in the past 20 years, new and half-new camouflage uniforms, carrying gear, bulletproof vests... The harvest was not as much as B4.

Until Xia Yu opened a diamond treasure chest in the C2 hangar.

"Dear, guess what Yuzu, Charles and I found?"

Looking at the ScanEagle in the engineering plastic box in front of him, Xia Yu turned on the walkie-talkie and contacted Liv.

"Is it something expensive?"

"These are things that the Chinese people sell to others at very high prices. I didn't expect that they would not want all of them."

As he spoke, he began to count the number of plastic boxes of the same type. One box is one rack, and there are 15 racks here.

Xia Yu clearly remembered that the export price of ScanEagle was between 160 million and 240 million, and the two second-hand units used by Jihuo Defense were purchased at a friendly price of 100 million.

Who would have thought that when I arrived in Afuhan, there were 15 ScanEagles available at no cost.

"Let me take a look at the factory code. It's actually a new product from this year. I'm afraid it hasn't been used since it entered this hangar?"

Because Jihuo Defense is also a user of ScanEagle, Xia Yu knew how to read the coded information and was shocked.

This is nothing. The order was placed last year and the equipment was completed and delivered at the beginning of this year. However, the government forces were defeated by Tata. The magnesium army did not have direct conflict with the other side as agreed. Naturally, this batch of equipment bought for the government forces with their own money was useless.

While there was still internet at the airport, Xia Yu searched the Internet and he actually found public information about the contract.

This batch of 15 Scan Eagles, together with 9 reconnaissance modules and 3 sets of module spare parts, is worth a total of US$976.9 million. This time the price was not high.

But there will definitely be someone willing to resell it for 100 million each, since Jiehuo Defense didn’t spend a penny anyway.

"It seems that we made the right decision to come to Afuhan. The Chinese are really good customers!"

Liv said on the encrypted band.

She and Xia Yu originally thought that the Germans were very wasteful, bringing back large rocks and beer, but also bringing back all of the Wehrmacht's equipment.

The Chinese people did not want any mineral water or weapons and equipment. The entire withdrawal process could only be described as chaotic, and the original plans were also messed up.

However, this is also a good deal for Jihuo Defense. The cooperation with the National Defense Force only earned the freight, but it made a lot of money from the Magnesium people.

"There are no problems with these aircraft and reconnaissance modules, but the ground control stations are all destroyed. Tata can't use these ScanEagles. It seems that these ScanEagles are really meant for us!"

Xia Yu continued to explore forward and found three control stations that had been violently destroyed.

He is familiar with this. It doesn't matter if it breaks down. As long as it is installed on the ship and truck, the system can be maintained and repaired.

But it is impossible to repair it without cheating. The physical keys and other things have been destroyed, and even if the system is running, you cannot enter the control interface.

In this case, these Scan Eagles can only be sold to buyers who have control stations, but once they fall into Xia Yu's hands, they can be sold as a complete set.

If they can't sell all of them, they can use them themselves. Originally, it was said that the two ScanEagles were eliminated so it was just right to use domestic products, but a serious blue army has to use foreign military equipment, right?

"Seal them all for Dad."

Xia Yu directed his two sons to seal the plastic boxes. The Scanning Eagles also had to be transported away first to avoid any confusion later.

Xiaoyouzi and Xiaer stepped on their bomb disposal robot and struggled to put the seal on it.

The two brothers, whose combined age is less than double digits, can’t even figure out how to operate a tracked vehicle, let alone a drone. They need to go to school to learn how to operate one.

The father and his two sons were opening a treasure chest in the hangar, and the runway outside the hangar was also very lively.

Because it is now late August, the evacuation operation has entered its final stage.

原先不如空客A380极限800＋载客量的C-17全球霸王，你敢相信运输舱极限500＋的载客量竟然也飙升到了800＋？
In order to escape from Kabuer and Afuhan, the guides pushed themselves to the limit and risked their lives to squeeze onto the flight which could become the last one at any time.

But those who got on the plane were the "lucky ones", and those with less education squeezed onto the C-17's landing gear.

"Oh my god, how did they get up there?"

Just as the Apaches were about to withdraw and the Hind aircraft fleet that was concentrating fire defense had not yet entered the airport, a thrilling scene occurred at the airport.

The person who climbed onto the landing gear thought he had a ticket to Magnesium, but he didn't know that he actually had a one-way ticket to hell.

Under the powerful thrust of the engine, the C-17 took off from the ground, and just as the altitude was increased, the landing gear began to retract into the cabin.

"Paji~~"

The unlucky guy didn't catch any and fell directly onto the track.

"We shouldn't have put these people on the runway. Now the whole world knows about it."

It's not really gloating, Xia Yu said regretfully from the customer's perspective, but the Chinese people have lost everything with this guy.

Of course, there was also a "heartwarming" scene where a mother handed the child in her arms to a fully armed soldier.

Reporters quickly picked up their cameras and recorded this relay of life.

This is very much like the magnesium-strong spirit advocated by the magnesium people. However, without a plan in advance, even if it is just a show, they can still give you a big shit.

The soldier didn't even report to his superiors and just threw the swaddled child into a corner, where he was picked up by a car rental driver.

Xia Yu saw the photo one day later and knew the whereabouts of the child two days later, but this also effectively prevented him from entrusting the child to the soldiers.

"Shad, take your brother and sister away from those soldiers."

Liv instructed her eldest son.

"Got it mom, we're right over here in the hangar."

Little Youzi originally thought that those guys were no different from his father's employees, but now he realizes there is a huge difference.

The high salaries at Fire Defense meant that the employees had no complaints about the strict discipline, and now they were demanding even more of themselves than when they were in service.

The soldiers know the discipline, so don't expect too much.

"Wow~Wow~~"

Another flight of C-17s and A340s was about to take off, and two upgraded Hinds from the Fire Defense Force took off to drive away the crowd on the runway.
