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

While Chang Haonan was intensively promoting the turbofan 10 test work.

Jaffa, east coast of the Mediterranean.

David Aircraft Industries (IAI).

Lu Jinwenzheng, the person in charge of the ring project's final assembly task, and his deputy Sui Dongxing squatted at the window of a stairwell.

The former even held a small monocular telescope in his hand.

They were observing a workshop about 500 meters away attentively.

With the sunlight shining in from the east, Sui Dongxing could see through the telescope a huge IL-76 transport aircraft parked in the workshop.

There are also dense climbing frames installed around the aircraft.

But no one was working on it or around it.

In fact, the modification work on this aircraft has been stalled for more than a year.

Recently, they, the Chinese technicians, were directly prohibited from approaching the aircraft.

By this month, even access to the workshop had been revoked.

As long as a Chinese face approaches there, the sentry standing guard at the door will step forward to drive them away.

Considering that we are now on someone else's territory, there is definitely no future for breaking in.

Therefore, in order to observe the situation inside the workshop, this strategy was taken.

"Mr. Lu, even if you have to stare at the other side, you don't have to come so early in the morning, right?"

Sui Dongxing held a camera in his hand and yawned as he spoke, obviously not fully awake:

"It's not like that plane suddenly ran away. We just need to prevent them from causing damage."

"Of course you can't run away."

Lu Jinwen didn’t even put down the telescope:

"But Lao Song told me before that he heard a few people from David's country chatting yesterday. It seems that there will be foreigners coming to see this plane recently... meaning people from a fourth country besides us, Russia and David's country."

The old Song in his mouth is called Song Haoqiang, and he is the only person in the entire team who can speak Hebrew and Arabic besides the translator.

But he never exposed this.

Therefore, we often hear important information coming from people who are not cautious enough.

"what?"

Sui Dongxing almost jumped up from the ground after hearing this, with an angry look on his face:

"What the hell is this happening?"

You know, in the original plan, the products of the Ring Project would become the absolute core of the Chinese Air Force's operations in the next 20 years.

Although things have developed to this point, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this trilateral cooperation project is definitely on the way.

But at least legally speaking, this is still an ongoing state.

Now it’s okay to not let them from China have access to the plane, but they also bring people from other countries to see it?

If you can bear it, you can eat shit!

No wonder Sui Dongxing was so emotional.

In the past few months, they have received too much scorn from the Kingdom of David.

"Keep your voice down."

Lu Jinwen quickly patted Sui Dongxing next to him.

Although what the two of them are doing now cannot be considered espionage, it would not be a good idea if they were discovered.

After the latter squatted back in front of the window, Lu Jinwen lowered his voice again and said:

"So today I am going to get the evidence that they violated the contract and privately led unrelated people to contact the prototype of the ring project. This way, when we fight in the future, we will have more chips in our hands."

As the vice president of the project and the person in charge of the site, Lu Jinwen actually knew that the country had given up its expectations for the ring project, so he has now begun to prepare for the international lawsuit that is destined to last for a long time.

While the two were talking, several black luxury cars filed in from the internal road next to them. After turning a few turns, they finally lined up and stopped at the entrance of the workshop.

Obviously, the news Song Haoqiang heard was true.

"Quick, get ready to take pictures!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Jinwen quickly signaled Suidong to get down to business, while he continued to stare at the situation in the distance with his binoculars.

More than a dozen people in different clothes got out of the car and shook hands with the IAI leadership who came to greet them.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to hear what they are saying here.

"Which country is this guy from? Is he white or black?"

Lu Jinwen frowned and muttered to himself in confusion.

When those cars appeared just now, he had actually thought about many possibilities.

But the brain is still a little down at this time.

"let me see……"

The camera next to Sui Dongxing had a large magnification, but it was difficult to see clearly through the viewfinder, so after pressing the shutter several times, Lu Jinwen and I changed hands.

But soon he also encountered difficulties:

"Hmm... He's not from Africa, right? It actually looks a bit dark, but not particularly dark?"

"Most of the people on the southern coast of the Mediterranean in North Africa are white people. If you're talking about sub-Saharan Africa... I don't think they would be interested in early warning aircraft, right?"

Lu Jinwen took over the task of taking pictures and was taking pictures continuously.

Suddenly, he noticed another person wearing a strange-looking turban getting out of the car in the middle.

"Fuck, I know!"

He first patted his thigh, and then quickly raised the camera again to take a picture of this man shaking hands with the general manager of IAI.

"Indian?"

Sui Dongxing next to him also made a rough guess.

"pretty close."

Lu Jinwen nodded:

"I heard that they had some conflicts with their neighbor in the first half of the year. Although they won in the end, the Air Force suffered heavy losses. It may be that they learned from the experience and prepared to build early warning aircraft."

"But if you need it urgently, why not buy it ready-made?"

Sui Dongxing is a bit strange.

"Hey, you don't understand this. I've been in contact with them before. They have high ambitions but low intentions. I must think that the E3 and A50U are too old, so I came to buy the active phased array system of Falcon. It just happened. There is another half-finished product here, and it will definitely arrive faster than starting from scratch. "

Lu Jinwen's analysis is obviously very reasonable, and Sui Dongxing immediately responded:

"Holy shit, they want to give our plane to someone else?"

"Then we must quickly contact the country and express our stance clearly against this behavior!"

The former is much calmer:

"That's not the case. We signed a contract with Beriev for this aircraft, and asked them to directly select an old aircraft in good condition and send it over. Because the project has been stalled, the final payment is still due. It’s not finished yet, so let’s not talk about whether David dares to give it away, even if he dares, the Indians probably won’t accept it.”

"I estimate that they still want to sell the plan of converting the IL-76 into an early warning aircraft, so they brought Indians to actually visit it."

The main equipment of the Indian army is basically imported from Russia, and it will definitely not conflict with Beriev over such a trivial matter as an Il-76.

At this time, the two groups of people in the distance had finished their greetings and walked into the workshop together.

Lu Jinwen took a few more photos, then raised his head and said:

"However, what you just said is right, we must contact the country."

He clenched his fists as he spoke:

"No matter what, this aircraft is our property, and the ring project is also a project jointly developed by our country and IAI. They want to directly transfer the results to a foreign country, and it is a country that is in conflict with us. It is simply too much. !”

Sui Dongxing, who had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, stood up immediately:

"Then I will contact the embassy in Jaffa and ask them to forward the photos and news back!"

"Let's go together. The draft of the telegram should require my signature."

Lu Jinwen said and put the camera away.

But after thinking for a moment, he pressed the shutter button again and took all the remaining pictures on the film.

Then the humming sound of the rewinding motor sounded.

"This……"

Sui Dongxing, who was next to him, was confused for a moment, but he immediately understood Lu Jinwen's operation.

This is to get the film.

Just as he expected, Lu Jinwen quickly pulled out the film from the camera and carefully hid it in his belt.

Finally, I replaced the camera with a half-used roll of film.

After a series of operations, the two of them pretended to be nonchalant and left the building.

Sure enough, at the gate of the IAI factory, they were stopped by an officer with the rank of lieutenant.

At this time, Sui Dongxing was so angry that his scalp was pounding. Although he kept telling himself to be calm, his tone could not help but be a little aggressive:

"anything?"

The other party looked at the travel bag and camera bag carried by the two of them, and said in somewhat stiff English:

"According to regulations, before you leave the top-secret area, I need to make sure that you are not carrying any classified information."

"When was there such a rule?"

Although preparations had been made, in order to act more realistically and to argue with reason, Lu Jinwen still asked:

"We've left the factory before, but we've never been searched."

In fact, their personal belongings were all reported. When they brought the camera in before, the other party did not take care of it at all, indicating that there was no requirement in this regard.

Even if there is, it is unlikely to involve the entire factory.

"The notification came down just yesterday."

The lieutenant’s English accent was a bit stiff:

"If you refuse inspection, you can't leave here."

At this time, two armed guards not far away also took a step forward.

Obviously, this is non-negotiable.

The two pretended to be helpless and threw the three bags on the table:

"Hurry up, we're in a hurry."

A guard took out the contents one by one and laid them out on the table for inspection, while the lieutenant began to search him.

Fortunately, the location where Lu Jinwen hid his things was concealed enough and no clues were discovered.

At this time, the guard also picked up the camera and tried to open the back cover.

If the unfinished film is opened directly under the light, it will be directly exposed and invalidated, so Sui Dongxing directly reached out to try to stop it.

"You can't open it. If you open it, it will be exposed and it won't be used!"

But the guard had no intention of letting go.

In the end, although Sui Dongxing had an angry look on his face, he still reluctantly let go.

The other party directly pulled out the film and threw it aside, only returning the camera to the two of them.

"Fuck that..."

Angrily, Sui Dongxing cursed in Chinese.

Of course, no one except him and Lu Jinwen could understand it.

"Can we go out?"

Lu Jinwen showed relative restraint, but there was obviously anger in his tone.

The lieutenant nodded and signaled to the guards behind him to let him go.

Sui Dongxing obviously wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of acting to vent, but was stopped by Lu Jinwen who was worried about the long nights and dreams.

The two of them just walked out of the gate of IAI.
