Battlefield Contractor

Chapter 1095: Hide from the sky

The southern coast of England where Southampton is located is one of the warmest regions in the UK. The weather is unpredictable and it may rain at any time of the year. The rain is not heavy, but it is annoying.

But it is usually not the rain that upsets people, but the upset.

Vasily Ivanovich sat calmly in the luxury yacht, smoking a cigarette calmly, but his brows were frowned. "Haven't found those mercenaries?" Black Pearl Betty came in as he turned his head.

"Yes." Betty hesitated. "Our people are still searching everywhere."

"Interesting." Vasily said calmly, "We are all little mercenaries."

"Maybe they knew that the plan had been revealed, so they left." Black Pearl whispered, "Otherwise, we won't find them with our ability."

"They won't leave because they are mercenaries." Vasily shook his head. "I understand their behavior. They will not take the initiative to leave the battlefield before completing their mission.

Although the mercenary industry has gradually undergone many changes in the new era, the spirit of persistence and bravery should not be underestimated. They are money fighters, but only if they can afford every penny that their employer spends. "

"The Grand Duke thinks they are still hiding in Southampton, waiting for your chance to assassinate you?" Black Pearl frowned.

"Is there a better explanation?" Vasily smiled.

"Then why don't we meet in another place?" Black Pearl said strangely, "Do you have to risk staying here?"

Vasily shook his head and said, "We must stay. Because we will be here to witness history in a few days."

"Witness to history?" Black Pearl felt slightly strange.

"Yes." Vasily smiled slightly, "History."

"What does Grand Duke mean?" Black Pearl frowned.

"This time our target is Britain." Vasily said lightly, "Portsmouth Base. Meetings are just a cover, and the Red Baron’s people will attack Portsmouth Base in a few days."

"Portsmouth Naval Base?" Black Pearl was surprised. "That's the aircraft carrier base of the British Navy."

"Yes, but what we want is not an aircraft carrier, but the Zumwalt." Vasily smiled.

"Zumwalt-class destroyer! The latest multi-purpose ground strike Aegis ship of the U.S. Navy was said to be officially launched in November last year." Black Pearl said in shock, "This ship is in the UK?"

"Yes, this is a top-secret plan of the two militaries and has never been disclosed to the outside world. They will complete the joint test and evaluation of this latest destroyer here. Now many countries attach great importance to the secrets of this ship." Vasily Shrugged.

He paused, "Zumwalt-class destroyers have designed motor power, control, communication, network, communication, detection and navigation weapon systems from the hull, and they are all cutting-edge technology that surpasses contemporary new research and development, showing the technology of the United States Navy. The strong financial resources and the forward-looking design concept are the main surface ships of the new generation of the US Navy, which are of very high value."

"US$3.3 billion." Black Pearl smiled bitterly. "I've heard about this ship. To be precise, this is the most expensive destroyer ever built by the U.S. Navy. In 2003, the Pentagon stated that it would buy 16 new destroyers. , And later said it was 7. By 2008, it became three, and the cost may exceed 5 billion U.S. dollars. Later, Ministry of Defense officials reduced the cost of the first Zumwalt class destroyer to 3.3 billion U.S. dollars, but this is still a sky-high price. ."

Vasily smiled slightly, "What do you think of replacing my yacht with a Zumwalt class destroyer?"

"God, you didn't mean to..." Black Pearl Betty was a surprised man.

"You guessed it right, we are going to hijack this world's most advanced destroyer." Vasily stretched out.

"It's impossible." Black Pearl shook his head.

Vasily shrugged, "Anything is possible, dear."

"But what are you doing for grabbing such a ship?" Black Pearl said nervously, "This thing is American's darling."

"That would be great, so they must be willing to pay the ransom." Vasily shrugged.

"What if they refuse to pay the ransom?" Black Pearl whispered.

"Then I will dismantle the ship and sell it. The MK-57 vertical launch system is sold to Europeans, and the dual-band radar and integrated underwater combat system are sold to the Chinese. Passive sonar active phased array radar and electronic warfare systems are interested." Vasily shrugged. "The cost of 3.3 billion gadgets, I sell one billion, I guess someone is rushing to get it."

"So all this is just a trap?" Black Pearl said in surprise. "At the summit meeting in Southampton, your personal appearance. It's all just to focus the attention of the British military intelligence department on you. So that the Red Baron Go ahead and take down the most advanced destroyer worth billions of dollars?"

"Is this plan of concealing the sky and crossing the sea not bad?" Vasily smiled, "I knew five years ago that MI6 had doubts about my identity. Do you think I would be so stupid to show my face here on purpose? This is very good, they stared at me, but I didn't expect it was them that I stared at."

"But this is too absurd. How do we leave even if we snatched this ship? This is the main British naval base. Sixty percent of the entire British navy is at Portsmouth Naval Base." Black Pearl said in disbelief.

"The Zumwalt-class destroyer adopts advanced and comprehensive stealth design, giving it a submarine-like stealth. The probability of being discovered when operating at sea is far less than 10%. The integrated modular structure adopts light weight and high strength radar. Made of low-reflectivity and non-corrosive composite material, the overall shape shrinks from bottom to top to reduce the radar reflection cross section.

Moreover, this ship claims to be able to reduce the noise during surface navigation to about 110 decibels, which is equivalent to a late-stage Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarine. It has become the quietest surface ship in the world, completely subverting the past. Surface ships are always noisier than submarines. The surface ship can be heard from a long distance. This means that even if they respond quickly, they cannot find us smoothly. "Vasily smiled.

"God, what if they deploy a fighter plane?"

"Do you think things worth 3.3 billion are vegetarian? The British Navy's aircraft are not enough to shoot a round of missiles. Besides, they dare not chase them. The Zumwalt class destroyers are equipped with a variety of ground attack missiles. Including. Tomahawk cruise missiles, tactical Tomahawk cruise missiles, standard surface-to-surface missiles, and advanced surface-to-surface missiles. If they dare to chase, we will use Tomahawk missiles to attack British coastal ports." Vasily said indifferently.

Black Pearl Betty's smile suddenly felt cold all over her body. She knew that this man was not joking.
