Yalu River, a word with special meaning, has countless tragic stories behind it.
"Huh... we finally arrived at the Bohai Sea. The next step is to fly along the territorial waters."
Not long after, Zhou Hai piloted the J-10d to leave the vast dark land and plunged straight into the sparkling sea reflecting the endless moonlight. He exhaled and said softly.
Now, it has been flying continuously for 18 hours and 48 minutes, with a total range of about 16,400 kilometers.
Arriving at the narrow Bohai Sea means entering the second half of the circular flight mission.
"Call Zero, how are you doing?"
At this time, the call from the female operator in the command center came from the radio communication channel: "Your aircraft is about to arrive at the next fuel supply point, and the mission progress is 69%."
"Report to the command center. I am in good condition and have no problems." Zhou Hai responded with the same voice as before, without any abnormalities.
"You need to be more vigilant when flying at night, Zero. According to regulations, you need to eat mints now to wake up." The female operator reminded, giving the task arrangement.
"Zero received."
Zhou Hai responded, took out the mint candy from the simple meal set, opened the wrapper, and put it in his mouth.
After regular communication and exchanges with the command center, the J-10d, flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters above the territorial sea, bypassed the sharp corner of Lucheng and the port, circled around the Bohai Bay and along the territorial sea line, and arrived at the scheduled fuel supply on the Shan Province Peninsula. Point, come to the top of the Yellow Sea.
It is still aerial refueling at night, precise docking, and absorbing the rich essence contained in the tanker's body.
After refueling, bidding farewell to the H-6 belonging to the central theater, the J-10d raised its nose, spread its wings and soared, climbing to the predetermined height under the full attention of the command center.
Now, head south!
…
Southeast, coastal areas.
In the night sky, the full moon hangs in the dome, emitting elegant and pure silver, and countless stars shine brightly.
The vast and boundless dark sea surface is rippling with blue waves and sparkling waves.
It was half past two in the morning.
After more than an hour of flight, the J-10d 'Fire Dragon', flying at high speed along a due south course, had covered a distance of nearly a thousand kilometers and flown over prosperous and charming port cities.
Inside the cockpit.
"Listing is worthy of being the most prosperous city."
Zhou Hai, who was sitting on the ejection seat, looked at the ultra-clear photos of the launch left on the tactical tablet and couldn't help but sigh.
Having flown through the airspace outside the city more than ten minutes ago, Zhou Hai saw the true face of this super city for the first time.
It is majestic and broad, and in the middle of the night, the tall landmark buildings and the entire city emit a dazzling light that almost covers the stars above. Its prosperity is far beyond that of the cities in the coastal areas that have flown all the way, including my hometown of Rongcheng.
Listed on the market, this Oriental Pearl, which gathers countless wealth and resources, is known as the most prosperous super city in the country, and it is indeed well-deserved.
Two words, rich.
"Huh...I wonder how you've been lately."
After sighing, Zhou Hai let out a soft breath and closed the tactical tablet that stored the aerial photos. Suddenly something occurred to him. He carefully took out the two photos stored close to his body from the leather flight jacket. He placed them on the table as if they were precious treasures. The top of the avionics equipment.
A pair of bright and deep eyes quietly stared at the two photos, as gentle as water, with a habitual faint smile on his face.
A girl from another family in winter, with red plums as her companion, smiles like a flower.
In spring, a girl from another family sits under a banyan tree with a book in her hand, her hair hanging down and a slight smile on her face, as quiet and beautiful as an orchid.
They are both photos, but these two are the most important.
Whether it's the photos taken when flying over Mount Everest, or the various scenic views taken as souvenirs while flying around the country, nothing can compare to them.
I have seen these two photos hundreds of times, but I never get tired of them.
"The flight mission will end in seven hours. I don't know if the fighting in the eastern sea area is still going on. After I go back this time, I should be exposed to the mysterious transformation plan. It will be the 70th National Day in October. I heard that there is a mission. I went to Chengdu Institute of Geology to look up information, there are a lot of things...wait, is this?!"
At this moment, Zhou Hai, who was sitting in the cabin silently watching the photo and thinking, suddenly caught a glimpse of the faint blue light emerging from the sea below on the left side. He frowned and used the moonlight to carefully observe the source of the light. When he saw After seeing the object clearly, his pupils shrank suddenly.
It has a black outline of the fuselage, two twin vertical tails at an outward angle, a rounded nose, a conventional aerodynamic layout combining swept wings and horizontal tails, a bubble-shaped glass cockpit that reflects the faint moonlight, and a An aviation turbofan engine that spits out high-temperature blue flames.
All these characteristics constitute the elaborate work of Lockheed Martin, the world's number one aviation equipment researcher - the F-35 'Lightning' joint fighter!
Yes, F-35!
An F-35 'Lightning' flying at ultra-low altitude over the sea is a true fourth-generation aircraft and the most important offensive force of the US military in the new century. It has top-notch capabilities that cannot be matched by the J-10D and Su-35 no matter how much they are improved. Invisibility!
This F-35 'Lightning' was only a dozen kilometers away from the territorial sea border. It was as unscrupulous as entering an uninhabited land. There were no naval aviation or air force fighters around it.
what happened?
An F-35 would actually appear here? !
Moreover, it seems that no one cares about it!
Could it be that the multi-layered defense lines and radars along our coast have not found any trace of this F-35 Lightning? !
This is a scary guess.
"Call the command center, call the command center, and find an abnormal situation. In the open sea area of Zhoudao in the eastern sea area, an F-35 fighter plane with an unknown identity was visually observed. It is only about 15 kilometers away from my country's territorial waters. There are no Chinese military fighters tracking it around. Surveillance, please give instructions!”
Thinking of this, Zhou Hai looked serious and solemn, frowned, and did not dare to hesitate. He immediately called the Western Theater Command Center through the radio communication channel.
"What, f-35?! Zero, are you sure?"
Sitting in front of the duty station, the female operator who stayed up late eating a simple meal almost squirted out. She was stunned for a moment. She quickly put down the chopsticks in her hands, put on her headphones again, her slender onion-like fingers jumped, and she tapped the keyboard frantically. asked.
f-35!
An unidentified F-35 is only 15 kilometers away from the eastern territorial sea border and located over the high seas. This situation may seem like nothing, but don’t forget, this is a fighter jet that symbolizes high-end war power!
Developed by Lockheed Martin on the other side of the ocean, it is a fourth-generation stealth fighter that embodies countless world-leading aviation technologies and wisdom, and has foreign blood flowing through it.
Moreover, there is another situation, that is, this F-35 seems to have not been discovered yet.
event!
Absolutely big deal!
