Rebirth of the 1980s: The Military Industry Empire

The atmosphere at Zhou Shuizi Airport grew tense.

A C-130 landed on the runway, and Harris, a high-ranking U.S. Navy official stationed in Japan, stepped off the plane, looking solemnly at the people who greeted him.

"What's the cause of the accident? Has it been thoroughly investigated?"

"Through the filmed footage and the investigation and analysis of the H-6 bomber after it landed, we found the real cause of the accident. It was a true aerial scalpel."

"What do you mean?"

"We originally added foam material-made winglets to the outer edges of the H-6's wings, planning to cut these foam materials during the filming process, but shortly after the bomber took off, these foam material-made parts fell off.

When we were filming, the Tomcat fighter's vertical tail directly pierced into the H-6's wing, causing the Tomcat's vertical tail to break off.

The broken part hit the engine, causing the right engine to catch fire.

The pilot was eager to restore power, so he fully opened the left engine's throttle, which resulted in the left engine surging and stalling."

They originally wanted to fake it, but who would have thought that it would actually turn real in the end.

The H-6's wing was cut open, but fortunately, it was a large aircraft, and it wobbled back to the base.

The Tomcat wasn't so lucky and crashed directly.

There were their reasons for this, and there were also the Tomcat's reasons.

The TF30 engine is notoriously unreliable.

However, the pilot in the rear cockpit failing to eject was a real thing.

By looking at the condition of the H-6 and analyzing the proportions in the footage, they can verify the correctness of this conclusion.

"Didn't the bomber's pilot notice the attached section falling off?" Harris said angrily.

Why did the H-6 fly back, but the Tomcat had an accident?

He felt unbalanced in his heart. It's like two children going swimming in the wild, and one of them drowns.

The parent will definitely blame the other one who came back alive.

"The H-6's cockpit glass is very small, especially the poor lateral visibility.

It's impossible to see what's happening in the rear hemisphere.

The H-6's wings are swept back, and the outer section of the wing is completely blocked, so you can't see it at all."

Not to mention the bomber, even the fighter pilot with the best visibility might not notice any accidents on the outer edge of the wing.

"Then it's a problem with the installation."

Qin Yang, who hadn't spoken, opened his mouth: "The installation was completed under the supervision of American technicians.

If there is a problem with the installation, then you have to take responsibility.

Our H-6 has also suffered a lot of damage, and the entire wing needs to be replaced.

The cost is about two million, and I hope you can reimburse us for this expense."

Harris's eyes showed disdain: "Leaving these aside, don't you have any responsibility?"

This ugly face is just like some people.

Qin Yang was also impolite: "That's right, we are responsible.

If I hadn't had an inspiration and wrote a screenplay about Tomcat air combat when I was in the United States, these things wouldn't have happened.

If I hadn't pursued realism and invited you to the East to shoot confrontation scenes, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened.

If I hadn't tried to create such classic shots, this consequence wouldn't have occurred.

So, all the responsibility is mine, and you have no responsibility at all, right?"

"Mr. Qin, don't be angry.

The Tomcat fighter that crashed this time is from the USS Kitty Hawk and is under Mr. Harris's command, so he is a little anxious," Pellehac quickly smoothed things over from the side.

"Hmph, we wrote the script, we invited you here to film, and we also provided the aircraft for filming.

Okay, now the responsibility has become ours.

What are we after?

From the time the Tomcat landed until now, we can only look at it, and we can't even touch it.

What are we after?

Isn't it for you!

Your Grumman company wants to show its aircraft to the world, and your navy is facing the problem of not being able to recruit enough young people to join the army.

We are doing it out of great international friendship!"

Qin Yang said: "Now it has become this result instead, we are very sad!"

After these words, Harris no longer had the arrogance he had just now.

"Mr. Qin, my attitude was not good just now, and I apologize to you.

We will discuss the matter of two million US dollars later," Harris said.

"The most important thing now is whether the Tomcat fighter that crashed into the sea has been salvaged?"

"The pilot has returned, but the wind and waves on the sea are a bit strong, and there is no way to salvage it now.

When the Siberian cold air comes, it will become more and more unsuitable for salvage, so we can only wait until next year."

"Next year? No, there are secrets of our navy on that plane, and we must salvage it as soon as possible."

"What secrets are there?

Isn't this type of aircraft the same model as the Iranian Navy?" Qin Yang said.

"If you want to salvage it, you can invite a private salvage team to salvage it at any time.

That fighter is yours, and salvage is your right.

If you want us to assist, you can only wait until next year!"

Harris was speechless.

The other party was right. The Tomcat fighter didn't seem to have any major secrets.

After all, it was the same model as Iran's.

If the Orientals wanted to obtain the technology of the Tomcat fighter, they could find the Iranians.

Although this accident was difficult for them to accept, flight accidents are very normal.

The Oriental's H-6 almost had an accident as well.

Anyway, the Tomcat fighter couldn't disappear at the bottom of the sea.

Since it can't be salvaged now, it's better to wait until next year.

It's not cost-effective to spend too much now.

"Mr. Qin, this aerial scalpel shot is too dangerous, let's give it up.

The confrontation shots have all been filmed, and we will shoot the remaining shots in the United States.

If you are interested, you can come to the United States to find us at any time," Pellehac said goodbye to Qin Yang after seeing that Harris had given up on pursuing the responsibility and knew that his trip was coming to an end.

Qin Yang shook his head: "I don't want to get involved anymore.

I'm afraid I'll be blackmailed again.

Also, I don't want to write the Black Hawk script anymore."

Qin Yang looked aggrieved, and Pellehac had no other way.

Another day passed, and the Americans all left.

Early the next morning, Qin Yang followed Old Lin to the H-6 base.

In the huge hangar, a variable-sweep wing fighter was parked so beautifully.

The fuselage was wide, the wing box was high-end, the air intake was very rough, and the engines with a one-meter gap at the rear were even more enviable.

"There is nothing you can't think of, nothing you can't do," Old Lin said.

"If we didn't have a careful plan, it would be impossible to get this plane.

Hmph, buy one for sixty million US dollars?

We only spent the fuel of a small submarine."

What was the biggest gain from this filming?

A US Navy Tomcat fighter in active service that was missing some equipment but was generally intact!

Only Qin Yang dared to deceive the heavens and cross the sea, using this method to trick the Americans out of one!

Trick them, so be it.

Qin Yang didn't have any psychological pressure.

When it comes to 1989, the Americans will trick us out of even more things!

What friends, it's just mutual use!

In the future, the Kitty Hawk didn't do anything good, and it would be better if the carrier-based aircraft on it all crashed.

"Yes, Mr. Qin, we never dreamed that you could get us an almost complete Tomcat fighter!" Old Tu also sighed from the side.

There is nothing that Mr. Qin can't do!

Even if it's giving birth to a child, as long as Mr. Qin says he wants to give birth, he can get the water from the Land of Daughters!

"Mr. Qin, how did you get this plane?"

This seems pretty cool too
