In the Yamsk Ballistic Missile Test Base, a new type of ballistic missile was being prepared for the final launch in an orderly manner.
The recently tested ballistic missile was called "Iskander", designated as the SS-26 variant.
This new ballistic missile was only installed in the Russian missile family two years ago. It used a single-barrel solid Rocket engine. When the missile body attacked the target, it could make irregular trajectory changes, and when it approached the target at high speed, the missile overload could reach 30G.
In addition to trajectory changes, this missile also used a grillless tail design, and the surface of the missile body was coated with stealth coating, which greatly reduced the radar reflection cross-section and increased the difficulty of intercepting the enemy.
And these were only the data when it was installed in 2016.
The one that was being tested now not only had increased range and accuracy, but also had an earth-shaking innovation in combat.
In theory, this was a ballistic missile that could launch an attack on large surface ship targets.
At present, only Hua Xia was equipped with ballistic anti-ship missiles in this world.
Russia was not willing to fall behind, and this ballistic missile was the starting point of their anti-ship model.
Since two months ago, the Yamsk Ballistic Missile Test Base had entered a state of high alert. The SS-26 variant ballistic missile had also undergone a comprehensive performance test here.
From the launch vehicle, to the missile weapon system training, and the night simulation launch operation test.
Then to the instrument life test, the standby test, the launch test in a low-temperature environment, the test in a windy environment, and the most important test in a complex electromagnetic environment and a simulated launch test in a nuclear explosion environment.
The above tests had achieved good results.
So they decided to conduct the most important live firing test tomorrow.
After launching an SS-26 variant ballistic missile at a high speed of 900 kilometers, they would see if they could hit the target ship arranged in the Okhotsk Sea.
This test affected the nerves of the entire Russian military, and also the nerves of other countries.
There was no country that did not want to find out the data of this missile test.
Of course, the security work in the Yamsk Ballistic Missile Test Base could be said to be an iron wall.
With the base as the center, a radius of 50 kilometers was all under martial law, and all the intersections were guarded by armored vehicles. There were more than 2,000 soldiers patrolling on foot in this area.
The surroundings near the test base were even more strict.
There was an S-400 air defense battalion stationed here that specialized in targeting high-altitude targets, and a Pantsyr-S1 close-range air defense system that specialized in targeting medium-low flying targets.
It was the same set that was stationed around the World Cup stadium a few months ago.
Anti-air missiles required radar support, and there was an anti-air radar search station southwest of the base.
Originally, the atmosphere at the radar station was not hostile. Since the missile test base was established, only in the sixties and seventies did Western reconnaissance planes come over for high-altitude reconnaissance.
Of course, they could not give up on air defense just because there were no enemy reconnaissance aircraft.
There were no enemy surveillance aircraft. That was because their air defense system had intimidated the enemy.
Once the air defense was lifted, the sky above the missile test site would be even livelier than the sky above the Moscow International Airport.
In the originally quiet radar station, the first ear-piercing warning sounded.
Several radar operators on duty were chatting. The radar screen in front of them was as clean as a piece of white paper.
After the warning lasted for half a second, the red target aperture on the radar screen suddenly locked onto a large low-altitude target that was only tens of kilometers away from them. The group of radar personnel on duty suddenly froze.
They stared at the radar screen, confused.
They had never encountered such a situation before, not even during various target simulation exercises.
A huge aircraft had appeared in the sky above the base without any warning?
If it had been any other time, they might have thought it was a radar malfunction. But now the missile test base was on the highest level of military alert, and tomorrow was the day of the live-fire test of the SS-26 modified ballistic missile.
The observer closest to the radar equipment slapped the red emergency button in front of him.
"Woo ~ woo ~ woo ~ woo ~ woo ~"
The shrill alarm was transmitted to the close-range air defense system duty room. The four howitzers around the base immediately entered combat mode.
Short-range missiles were ready to fire, and the low-altitude fire control radar was spinning wildly, looking for the target.
Direction.
Vertical height 251 meters.
Speed 311 kilometers per hour.
"Beep Beep ~"
The fire control radar prompted that the target was locked and could be fired.
The weapon operator was so frightened by the sudden news of the enemy that he trembled all over. He did not dare to deal with it on his own. He immediately grabbed the communicator and shouted, "Command, command, we have locked onto a large unidentified aircraft. Should we fire?"
There was a lot of noise in the command center. It seemed that they were also frightened and panicked.
Just as someone in the command center grabbed the communicator and was about to convey the order, the target on the close-range fire control radar suddenly disappeared.
The target on the large anti-air radar also disappeared.
At this moment, the missile test base was facing a formidable enemy.
Two fighter jets parked at the airport took off, and the soldiers patrolling the periphery ran to the place where the target last disappeared.
There were also armed helicopters and armored anti-air vehicles.
…
The radar had a low-altitude blind zone. Below a certain altitude, it would be affected by terrain obstacles and could not be detected.
The Boeing 747 had landed on the runway, and the radar would of course lose the target.
But two fighter jets loaded with missiles had already rushed out of the runway and would arrive here in less than five minutes.
The other two peons were not idle either. They carried violent disassembly equipment and high-temperature cutting guns and entered the cargo hold from the rear wheel in the shortest time.
Any commercial airliner was equipped with a "black box."
The Boeing 747 had two pieces. One was responsible for recording the flight altitude, heading, rate of climb, rate of descent, and other flight data within two hours. The other was responsible for recording all the pilots' calls.
Without the black box and cockpit recorder, the Boeing 747 was parked helplessly in the dark night sky.
The two pilots heard the roar of fighter jets from further away when the mysterious cabin door closed in front of them.
Unfortunately, they could no longer see. The peons held them until the Lord's Battleship rapidly ascended and disappeared under the starry sky.
In the cabin, Director Nenanbona was lying on the ground in pain, and a flight attendant was on top of him.
The flight attendant wanted to persuade him to return to his seat and fasten his seat belt, but the director created her "meat cushion."
Only the orange emergency lights were on in the cabin.
"We … are we landing?" The flight attendant, who was lightly injured, struggled to get up. Her professionalism told her to open the cabin door and pull down the emergency escape cushion at the first moment of the plane's forced landing.
She thought so and did so.
The heavy cabin door was pushed open by her, and the escape cushion rushed out with a "bang ~" and quickly inflated into a slide to the outside world.
It was dark outside.
"Everyone … quickly leave the plane." The flight attendant stood in front of the cabin door and shouted.
But soon, the flight attendant found that her shout was drowned out by another sound.
"Boom ~ boom boom boom boom ~"
This thunder-like roar was not unfamiliar.
It was the sound of a fighter jet moving forward at high speed.
The next moment, two flashes of blue flames cut through the night and shot over the flight attendant's head.
A few minutes later, the two blue flames pulled back from the other direction. They seemed to be roaring that someone dared to break into their territory.
The flight attendant was stunned, and the passengers sitting in the seats with seat belts were also stunned.
Unfortunately, they did not have time to recover. With the fighter jet hovering overhead, several other sounds soon joined. It was the sound of helicopter rotors.
Beams of white light hit the body of the Boeing 747.
The abandoned runway, which was originally submerged in darkness, became as dazzling as the Luzhniki Stadium when it hosted the World Cup.
The flight attendant standing at the cabin door, at this moment, was in a mood like Messi lying on the lawn, particularly flustered.
Six KA-52 helicopters surrounded the flight attendant in a formation, and the muzzles of the cannon pods below were pointed at the flight attendant.
Then there were strong headlights shining from a distance. These headlights were connected and rose and fell with the terrain.
In the violent roar of the exhaust pipes, dozens of armored vehicles and more than 20 bulletproof military vehicles sneaked out of the boundless night. They braked around the Boeing 747.
The door opened, and there were rows of heavily armed soldiers with assault rifles.
Director Nenbona lay in the cabin in pain until he was grabbed by the collar and pulled up from the ground.
"Who, who dares … to touch me?"
What answered him was the cold butt of a gun smashing into his face.
Director Nenbona blacked out and immediately fell into a coma.
Looking at the group of Russian soldiers with monstrous anger in their eyes, the other passengers in the cabin curled up in their seats and shivered. They did not understand where they were from beginning to end.
They only knew that the plane landed in a dark environment, and before they could escape from the cabin, they were completely surrounded by murderous armed vehicles and planes.
"Ah ~ I … I'm a reporter from Columbia Radio Television … What are you doing?"
"Pa ~"
Another butt of the gun.
With an example, the cabin immediately quieted down. The other passengers could only watch helplessly as they were pulled out of their seats and violently tied up with a plastic rope.
Outside the plane, more than thousands of soldiers gathered here. They received a carpet-style search task centered on the abandoned runway and launched a 20-kilometer area.
At the same time.
In the command center of the ballistic missile test base, a soldier with a general's rank walked into the office alone and closed the soundproof door.
The general picked up a red phone on the table with a cold face.
"Beep ~ Beep ~"
