Chapter 821 Charging Towards the US Navy Aircraft Carrier—The Roosevelt

Jiang Chen pressed down on the control lever again.

I gently pushed the throttle valve lever forward.

The aging F-16A/B Fighting Falcon fighter jet descended to a lower altitude once again.

It was flying almost skimming the surface of the sea.

The US likes to leave backdoors in its foreign military purchases.

Especially advanced weapons and equipment.

The buyer even has to consult the seller and obtain the key before they can use it normally.

Take, for example, the famous F-35 F-35.

There are similar backdoor programs.

However, it includes staunch allies (and junior partners) such as the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, Greece, and Belgium.

The United States is unlikely to go too far.

When delivering FREE batteries, the key is always handed over to the ally.

However, Lockheed still has the ability to remotely control it.

Even fighter jets can become locked up and unusable during flight.

This avoids being betrayed by staunch allies.

Israel is America's "father" (or "son"), so the Israeli Air Force not only has the key, but Lockheed Martin cannot remotely lock the aircraft. The only department that can lock down the F-35 fighter jets in the Israeli Air Force's arsenal is most likely the Pentagon or the White House.

If the second party is from Japan, South Korea, Singapore, etc.

Then congratulations.

Even if the F-35 is delivered in a lightning speed.

Before each takeoff, the country's air force needs to apply for a key from Lockheed Martin on a temporary basis.

in other words.

If Lockheed doesn't provide the key.

The heavy aircraft of these countries' air forces are just for show.

Rebel against Tiangang?

How dare the son of Party B treat Party A's father so rudely?

Ha ha.

Let's figure out who the son and the father are first.

Therefore, even allies are divided into three, six, and nine levels.

Some countries are ostensibly staunch allies of the United States.

But in reality, his status was even lower than that of a henchman.

Purely for pets.

They even come with their own dog food.

Venezuela was a staunch ally (junior) of the United States decades ago, but it defected more than 20 years ago.

While serving as a junior partner to the United States, the Venezuelan Air Force also purchased a considerable amount of advanced equipment from the U.S. Air Force.

Examples include the F-16A/B Fighting Falcon, C-130 transport aircraft, KC-137A aerial refueling tanker, and C-25 electronic reconnaissance aircraft.

According to convention.

The US also installed backdoors on these military aircraft.

However, these American-made military aircraft were purchased a long time ago, almost thirty years ago.

Technology from thirty years ago might be difficult for some small countries.

But compared to the University of Tokyo, it's just like a decoration.

So, several years ago...

The backdoor program on these US-made military aircraft has already been deciphered and disabled by engineers sent by Tokyo University.

At the same time, I also took the opportunity to inspect all of these American-made military aircraft.

The engineers concluded that
—Too outdated to be worth a look!
"Command, Dongdong is calling. My aircraft has spotted the target and is en route for reconnaissance!" Jiang Chen called the command center via an encrypted channel while flying close to the sea surface.

soon.

Zhang Zhipeng's voice came through the encrypted communication channel: "Command received. While ensuring your own safety, be careful to avoid foreign warships and military aircraft, maintain a deterrent posture against foreign fleets, but do not fire without orders."

"Repeat, do not fire without orders."

Jiang Chen gently pulled the control lever and replied, "Understood."

He had just finished speaking.

The F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jet nimbly flew over a turquoise island.

Behind Jiang Chen.

Xiao Yuan, piloting another F-16 Fighting Falcon, followed closely behind. The two fighter jets resembled two seabirds chasing and playing with each other.

Soaring over this sea area.

Extremely low-altitude training, skimming the ground or sea, is a dangerous yet exciting training exercise for pilots.

Because the fighter jets are too fast.

Moreover, the terrain is extremely complex.

Even a second of negligence could lead to a collision with a mountain and a crash.

At the same time, due to the fact that the Earth is a large sphere, even the flattest land and sea surfaces have a certain curvature.

If the pilot flies at low altitude according to absolute altitude.

Even if you don't crash into the uneven and complex terrain, you might still vaguely bump into the ground.

Therefore, pilots want to maintain ultra-low altitude ground/sea-skimming flight for extended periods.

It’s as difficult as climbing to heaven.

However, because it flies close to the ground/sponge, the risk of the aircraft being detected by radar is greatly reduced.

Therefore, ultra-low-altitude ground/sea-skimming flight is a tried-and-true tactic for penetrating defenses.

This is why, despite the obvious dangers of ultra-low-altitude ground/sea-skimming flights, major air forces still include them in their training programs.

For other pilots.

Extremely low-altitude ground/sea-skimming flights are a nightmare.

But for Jiang Chen and Xiao Yuan...

It was just a simple, everyday meal.

The 'Hungry Wolf Squad' has scouted out the most outstanding and elite young talents from the entire army.

These people are all absolute elites who can take on four or more opponents at once.

Whether it's talent or comprehension.

They all far surpassed ordinary pilots.

So while ultra-low-altitude ground/sea-skimming flights are a nightmare for others, they are as simple as eating and drinking for them.

The two F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets flew close to the sea surface for about 30 to 40 kilometers.

After breaking through a stretch of islands and reefs.

An aircraft carrier battle group appeared at the edge of their sight.

Jiang Chen immediately called the forward command again, "Forward command, bearing 0-3-5, 178 nautical miles from our coastline, a super-large surface warship group has been spotted, including one nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, one large cruiser, four guided-missile destroyers, four guided-missile frigates, and one supply ship. Whether it is escorted by submarines is currently unknown. The target fleet has already scrambled multiple carrier-based aircraft. Requesting instructions."

This so-called large surface warship group.

It was the 'Roosevelt' carrier strike group that Jiang Chen and his team had been searching for.

at this time.

The deck of the aircraft carrier is bustling with activity.

At this point, two F/A-18 Super Hornet carrier-based aircraft had already taken off urgently.

Two other F/A-18 Super Hornets were mounted on steam catapults, awaiting takeoff orders.

The other ships guarding the aircraft carrier were also in a state of combat readiness at this time.

The radar was activated, scanning all directions.

It was as if they would immediately launch a counterattack as soon as they detected any enemy activity.

a few minutes ago.

The radar on a destroyer in the USS Roosevelt carrier strike group detected two unfamiliar signals.

Based on analysis.

These are two old F-16 Fighting Falcon fighter jets.

But to their astonishment...

The target had barely been spotted when it vanished in an instant.

Could the target become invisible or teleport?

This change.

This immediately served as a wake-up call for the USS Roosevelt carrier strike group.

The aircraft carrier strike group immediately activated its highest level of combat readiness.

The ships began to be vigilant about the surrounding airspace.

At the same time, carrier-based aircraft were launched to conduct reconnaissance missions.

But just as the carrier strike group was busy, the two vanished targets suddenly flew out from the other side of an island reef, skimming the sea surface, and then flew straight towards the carrier strike group.
