The military-industrial scientific research system of the academic master.

At the same time that Wang Wei led the formation to break through the air defense circle, a high-standard dinner was underway in the top hall of the Royal Cruise Ship.

Since this ship does not belong to the Royal Navy at all, the series of calls on the fleet radio just now did not affect the happy atmosphere here.

As for the frequent take-off and landing of fighter planes, this has happened frequently in recent days. Most passengers would gather at the window with interest at first to watch, but soon lost interest.

Although there are still some passengers who are a little knowledgeable or interested in the navy, the high-end banquets and upper-class social circles are obviously more attractive.

Reporter Ingrid Seward and colleague and childhood friend Mark Spencer were sitting in a corner drinking.

The two of them came to this ship through several connections. They originally wanted to catch a few big shots and dig out some news.

As a result, although the big shots found a few, they never found a chance to get close.

Looking at the frowning Seward, Spencer picked up the wine glass, touched her gently, and then comforted:

"Think on the bright side, at least we have the opportunity to personally participate in this voyage. Believe me, even just a few issues of the memoirs will sell the newspaper for a few days after we go back."

Originally, when this fleet first visited, its influence was not so great.

But later on, as I visited many former Commonwealth countries along the way, I really gained a lot of face, and many British people couldn't help but think of the imperial cruise more than 70 years ago.

After all, this was the most powerful time in the history of the British Empire.

Just like the Chinese people will never forget the Han and Tang Dynasties, every British person also pretends to have an imperial dream.

But the female reporter next to her did not become happy because of this:

"After spending so much trouble getting on this boat, how can we possibly repay the money just by selling the newspaper for a few days?"

She drank the wine in her glass as she spoke:

"Actually, I heard news that this parade would involve some people related to the royal family..."

"A member of the royal family?"

Spencer’s voice lowered a lot unconsciously.

In the past two years, almost all news about the royal family has been highly sensitive:

"I just heard that there is support from the royal family behind this fleet trip."

"Because now we need some exciting topics to dilute the royal family's scandal..."

At this time, a pair of young men and women in bright clothes walked over.

The two of them changed the topic in a very tacit understanding.

"Hello, can you take a photo of me and my fiancée?"

Apparently, the other party saw the camera bag next to them.

"can."

Seward glanced at Spencer sitting next to him with complicated eyes, and then agreed.

"Just by the window, and use the warship behind as the background."

The man and woman stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows of the banquet hall.

Seward adjusted the camera casually, then squatted down and started focusing.

In fact, there is no inevitable connection between reporters and photography, and interview reporters like her rarely need to press the shutter themselves.

The camera is just part of your professional image and just in case.

However, the moment she focused the viewfinder on the two people, she discovered that in the distance outside the window, a plane was approaching from the stern of the Excellence.

Even as a military illiteracy, Seward knew over the past few days that the Royal Navy's carrier-based aircraft landed vertically, and there was no such approach procedure.

The reporter's intuition allowed her to quickly adjust the focus and take a series of photos.

If someone who didn't know the situation saw this scene, they might think it was a carrier-based aircraft preparing to land.

In fact, even Wang Wei himself on board No. 12 had the urge to put down the landing gear and give it a try.

But in the end, he still maintained his sanity.

A ski-jump aircraft carrier without an angled deck does not have enough space to complete a go-around.

Furthermore, it is true that he has never practiced.

If something goes wrong, everything from today to now will be over.

The moment the plane passed over the aircraft carrier, he pressed the photo button of the reconnaissance pod.

At the same time, he noticed from the corner of his eye that the ground staff next to the Sea Harrier aircraft below subconsciously lowered their heads to dodge.

This is exactly the deterrent effect brought by the action of "shaving one's head".

This is especially true for the Royal Navy, which has sunk several ships by iron bombs dropped by low-altitude attack aircraft.

Thinking of this, Wang Wei suddenly had a bold idea in the flash of lightning.

Before departure, their superiors told them to jettison the aircraft's auxiliary fuel tanks if necessary.

The original intention of this sentence is obviously to express when air combat or acceleration is needed.

But if it is extended, then Wang Wei feels that now can also be regarded as a "necessary time."

He turned the weapon selection knob to the word "auxiliary fuel tank" on the outermost side.

The moment the plane left the bow of the ship, the two auxiliary fuel tanks under the wing of No. 12 fell off like two bombs. The moment they touched the water, they bounced back up and floated several times before finally diving in. nautical miles.

At this time, the backseat pilot of the JH-7 flying over from the other side of the fleet raised his camera and recorded this rare moment from a third-person perspective.

"I really want to try what it feels like to land on an aircraft carrier if I have the chance..."

After completing this flyby mission, Wang Wei looked back at the increasingly smaller aircraft carrier in his field of vision and thought to himself.

After all, for any naval aviation pilot, boarding an aircraft carrier is the ultimate dream.

……

At almost the same time, in the banquet hall of the Royal Cruise Ship, Seward, who had taken several photos of the plane, was preparing to refocus on a pair of lovers posing in front of the window.

But at this time, some knowledgeable people had noticed the abnormalities in the distance.

"Oh God, that's not our plane on the aircraft carrier!"

An exclamation instantly attracted the attention of the entire banquet hall, and almost all eyes were immediately cast out of the window.

It's just that in the absence of equipment, most people can't actually tell the model of the aircraft, let alone the distance of thousands of meters.

As if to answer everyone's confusion, the man had just finished speaking. Before anyone could ask his doubts, another slender fighter jet flew from the outside of the Royal Cruise Ship at a much closer distance at the same exaggerated height. Pass.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the plane even deflected its fuselage slightly to show tourists the two large, two small and four missiles hanging under the wings.

Now, people with good dynamic vision can see it.

Because there was a pair of five-pointed stars with red ribbons on both sides painted on the underside of the wings of the plane.

Even those with little military knowledge can tell that this is by no means the logo of the Royal Navy or Air Force.

"It seems...is it the Chinese Air Force?"

After all, there are still people who are more knowledgeable.

But another sharp female voice immediately sounded:

"Look! That plane dropped two things. Are they bombs?!"

The stunned people once again focused their attention on the distance, and happened to see the scene of two things "floating" on the sea.

Horrified screams instantly echoed throughout the banquet hall.

The orchestral music that had been playing just now came to an abrupt end.

At this moment, only Seward and Spencer maintained their composure.

They knew that their trip was worth it!

The 1949 five-pointed star logo with two wings was indeed called the Air Force aircraft emblem when it was named in , but in fact it is used by both Hainan Airlines and Army Airlines, and the name has not been changed...
