Chapter 6, America is not the world's hegemon

The person in front of me is Captain Bie Lian, who just returned from a mission with me. He came from the Salsk Pilot Training Center a year ago and is currently the acting deputy squadron leader of the 3rd Aviation Squadron of the 513th Air Defense Regiment here in Qiuguyefka.

The soldiers at the Sokolovka base of the detachment, wearing steel helmets and holding AK74 rifles with short stocks, stood guard beside the aircraft, while the Americans inside were reluctantly stepping out.

Stop, let's go take a look!" shouted Andrei

At that moment, my hand trembled, and I misjudged the distance" said Andre

Andrei could not help but recall the future, where composite materials were used extensively to reduce the weight of aircraft. This material, once slightly damaged, necessitated a complete replacement. In contrast, the current MiG-25 only requires a simple welding to be operational again

Turning his head, a young man dressed in anti-gravity attire, holding a full-face helmet by hand, looked at him

Isn't that the EP-3? What a coincidence, it actually landed here? Andreton felt a surge of joy in his heart

Standing on the side, one can feel their own insignificance; even when piloting the J-11 in a past life, Andrei never experienced such a feeling

Americans are the most detestable enemies! With such feelings, they certainly have no fondness for these Americans

The ground service vehicle came to a stop, and Andrei jumped down, walking towards that direction. Behind him, Belyenko shook his head, wondering what was so interesting about it

Andrei descended from the ladder set up by the ground crew and stood beside the MiG-25 fighter jet, examining it closely

Partnering with Andrei is also a recent development from the past month

"Captain Belyanko." Andre exclaimed involuntarily

Just weld it! The front part of the vertical tail will also experience increased temperature due to air friction, so it is naturally made of stainless steel! There is no need for riveting; a direct argon arc weld will suffice!

Two steel warplanes flew in from a distance, accurately aligning with the runway and entering the landing approach.

Americans are not the world hegemon! They cannot flaunt their power everywhere! The red Soviet Union is the only superpower capable of countering the United States!

A burst of hearty laughter erupted around, as the soldiers in the base were all amused by Andrei. Even during the most tense moments of the Cold War, Andrei harbored a deep disdain for the Americans

The front landing gear also touched the ground. Since the drag chute was released, Andrei could only begin to gently apply the brakes. A heavy interceptor like the MiG-25 requires a runway of over 2,000 meters to land

"Hurry, hurry up!" Seeing that they were moving slowly, a soldier swung his rifle and struck the slowest American in the back with the butt of the gun.

At this moment, Andre suddenly remembered that he had used the vertical stabilizer as a knife to cut open the American EP-3 reconnaissance aircraft. Was the vertical stabilizer damaged

Although it was the first time operating such a high-altitude, high-speed MiG-25 fighter jet, having inherited all the wings, the young man Andre calmly pushed the control stick, guiding the fighter jet to continue its descent

The frustrated Americans disembarked from the plane, immediately escorted by armed soldiers towards the direction of the base's buildings

He has a robust and powerful physique, a broad face, yet his eyes carry a hint of languor

As Andre spoke, he gestured towards Ashus's groin with a sharp pilot's knife in hand, a chill spreading throughout Ashus's body

The American stumbled forward a few steps, coming right in front of Andrei. Looking at the Soviet pilot still dressed in anti-gravity gear, the American's eyes suddenly filled with rage

Meanwhile, another ground staff member set up a ladder at the vertical tail, which was as high as two stories, and was glanced at by the ground staff member.

031, 032, pay attention to posture, the rod length should not be too large, the landing gear has been deployed The voice of the controller from the control tower continuously comes through the headset

This is a tall and majestic fighter jet! Andre could not find a more fitting description, with its rugged lines, a fuselage that is almost cubical, and two enormous rectangular air intakes, everything showcases the characteristics of the Soviet Union: simplicity, reliability, brutality, and power

"It's alright, the covering is slightly damaged. Just tow it back to the hangar and weld it a bit," the ground crew responded. "The very high frequency antenna inside is unharmed."

As the wheels of the aircraft made contact with the ground, a slight vibration was felt. Looking to the sides through the cabin framed in metal, everything on the ground was rapidly receding.

Indeed, it is an escort. For the Soviet soldiers, it was these Americans who violated Soviet airspace and even brought the aircraft to their own base. If it were not for the orders from above, they would have long since shot down this aircraft with missiles

It was only at the very end of the runway that this MiG-25 was brought to a stop

Wang Wei, the Chinese pilot who was struck by the American EP-3 and ultimately returned to the sea, was also a flying colleague whom Andrei admired before his journey through time. Now, he has avenged him in this manner

Looking at the American, Andre's gaze instantly became sharp: "You Americans are neither saviors nor the world's police. Coming to our Soviet waters to cause trouble, this is your fate! This time, we merely severed your wing. If I encounter you again, I will pilot the plane and come right over here to cut off the guys in your pants!"

In order to ensure good maneuverability for the aircraft at high altitudes, the MiG-25 was the first to employ fully movable horizontal stabilizers and tall twin vertical stabilizers. This design resulted in a tendency for excessive control moments at lower altitudes, necessitating careful handling by the operators. A vivid metaphor used in later years describes it as a flying brick at low altitudes

The Americans walked away with their heads down, and Andre looked at the backs of these guys, but suddenly the name of that hero appeared in his mind

As the Kamaz vehicle driven by the ground crew approached, Andre's eyes lit up after just a short distance. In the distance, there was a large four-engine aircraft! It seemed to be missing a piece of its wing, but why did it look so familiar?

Just as he was thinking, someone tapped Andre's shoulder from behind

"How is it? Is it serious?" Andre asked

Such matters can be significant or trivial. If it were to be stated that it was a deliberate collision, it is likely that more trouble would ensue. Therefore, Andre still believes it is better to say it was an operational error

"Russians, you are colliding with our aircraft in the air, which is a violation of fundamental principles of international law!" This guy is Ashus, and he saw that the Soviet pilot in front of him had just disembarked from the plane, likely the one that had collided with his own! He shouted loudly: "Our U.S. government will absolutely not tolerate this!"

Bie Lian Ke did not speak, and only then did Andrei remember that this captain was usually very quiet, always taciturn

"Let's go, report to the commander." Beklenko said, "Andrei, you were really bold up there in the sky just now, weren't you afraid of crashing?"
