Chapter 302: Model

"It's that simple?" Lin Rui frowned. . .
Long Zhengwu shook his head and said, "If you know the value of that kind of drone, you wouldn't think so. This kind of drone is the latest product, although it is still in the testing stage. But the data shows that all its performance It has completely surpassed the Global Hawk series currently equipped by the US military. Therefore, this type of drone is very likely to be the next generation of drones that will replace the Global Hawk."
Lin Rui was slightly startled, "With that said, this prototype is indeed very valuable."
"Once the military signs this sales contract with Raytheon. Then not only the prototype itself, but also its core components, which are commonly referred to as the black box, all the original test data are vital. Once The loss of these things means that the hundreds of millions of dollars in Raytheon's business are most likely to be ruined." Long Zhengwu said slowly.
"Hundreds of millions of dollars?" Lin Rui was slightly surprised.
"The drone industry itself is a lucrative business. Raytheon has invested a lot in this area. Once the drone wreckage and core components are given to international buyers, it will be extremely serious. Technology leaks. The military will not purchase leaked drones, especially the original test data of this kind of aircraft have all been exposed. This means that the advantages and disadvantages of this drone are all exposed to others. Raytheon does not Are willing to bear such losses, especially the negative effects that they cannot bear." Long Zhengwu shrugged, "This is the mentality of large military enterprises."
"Do we have more information about this mission?" Lin Rui thought for a while, "I want to get more complete information. Where is the drone's operation center and the route it flew. , Who was the test person who controlled the drone at the time? Knowing that the situation there is unstable, why did the plane fly through that area?"
"These have nothing to do with us. According to Raytheon's confidentiality principles, they will not provide us with relevant information. They only need us to find the drone. Of course, to facilitate contact, Raytheon will appoint an expert to follow you. "Long Zhengwu said slowly.
"Drone expert, take action with us?" Lin Rui said in silence for a while, "but this is fighting. Bullet doesn't know any drone expert. Andira's situation is complicated, and he is completely caught in war. There are so many armed organizations of all kinds. They are even more dangerous than Santujak."
"I know what you mean. In this case, it is not easy to find a drone. Not to mention protecting the so-called expert. But we have no other way." Silver Wolf smiled bitterly.
"Why? Let's find the drone and return it to them, can't we? We relax, there is no need to protect a layman on the battlefield. Their experts can also relax, just sit at home and enjoy our services. Now." Lin Rui frowned.
"Have you ever wondered why drones with such a high level of confidentiality will be tested in central Africa? Are they not afraid of leaking secrets before?" Long Zhengwu looked at Lin Rui.
"Yes, I think so too. What are these Raytheon people thinking about going to Africa to test drones?" Lin Rui frowned.
"In fact, this is a long-distance interstate flight. This is a large drone. The airborne fuel exceeds 7 tons, the maximum range is 30,000 kilometers, and the autonomous flight time is more than 40 hours. Intercontinental flight." Silver Wolf said slowly, "The drone originally took off from Israel and entered Central Africa. The reason why they did not worry about leaking secrets was because the drone had a self-destructing device."
"There is a self-destructive device on the drone?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Yes, originally this kind of self-destructing device will explode after the console sends a signal, or it will automatically detonate within three hours after losing contact with the console. But for some reasons that are not yet known, this self-destructing device does not Not activated." Silver Wolf said slowly, "Otherwise, they don't need to worry so much."
"Maybe someone removed the self-destructing device." Lin Rui thought for a while.
"This is impossible. The reason why the self-destruct device can be the last insurance for the advanced technology of drones is because it cannot be dismantled. Even a real bomb expert cannot dismantle this self-destruct device." Silver Wolf shook his head. Said, "The self-destruction device is designed to interact with the black box, and any attempt to remove the black box will immediately detonate."
"Damn it, who designed this thing." Lin Rui said helplessly.
"So, the drone expert must follow you. Unless he dismantles the self-destructing device on site, you don't even want to remove the black box." Silver Wolf looked at him.
"I didn't like this task very much." Lin Rui smiled bitterly.
"We don't like this task, but we all like Raytheon's money." Long Zhengwu smiled and said, "Go back and prepare. Gather your team members and make a plan. The day after tomorrow, you will leave soon."
Lin Rui sighed, "Okay. But how can I get support?"
"The latest satellite communication system has been set up. We can give you any information support you need." Long Zhengwu said, "Even if you are far away in Africa."
"This is good news." Lin Rui nodded, "But what about our armed forces, and how should we go?"
"You don't have to think about the armed forces. We are working for the world's fifth-largest military industry this time. No matter what Raytheon company you need, you can get them, and even many of them are produced by themselves. As for the aircraft, there is no need to think about it. They will be responsible for airdropping your entire team to a predetermined location." Long Zhengwu explained, "This operation is said to have hired us. But it is actually a joint operation."
"Raytheon's service is so attentive?" Lin Rui smiled.
"In fact, they want to limit your access to other confidential information as much as possible. That's why it seems to be considered for us everywhere, but in fact, they are monitoring and restricting us everywhere.
In fact, you don't have to be angry at all, it's the same if you change me. Because once the prototype test data flows into the black market, the value will never be low. Naturally, they would not just believe in mercenaries like us. Let alone us, even their internal members are not trusted. These large military industrial enterprises have such a character. They never believe in people. "Silver Wolf smiled.
