During air combat, the altitude was not very high. When Ivanov parachuted, he was almost only a few hundred meters from the sea. He had just opened his umbrella and splashed into the water.
No pilot wanted the moment he pulled the ejection handle, but now Ivanov is only fortunate, at least he is still alive.
The MiG-25 is a high-altitude and high-speed fighter, which has more performance than any previous fighter. However, its ejection seat is the same model as the previous MiG-21. That is to say, when the speed is too fast, the altitude is too high. If it is high, parachuting is useless, and the personal safety of the pilot cannot be guaranteed at all.
Now, when the splash fell into the water, Ivanov was also fortunate not to be entangled by the umbrella cord. If it was tied up by the umbrella cord, there would be only a dead end.
He released his parachute and then took off his helmet. In the sea, all this was quite difficult.
As the sea water continues to soak into his clothes, his clothes will become heavier and heavier, and eventually his body will be pulled into the water. In order to adapt to the environment at an altitude of 30,000 meters, the MiG-25's one-piece flight suit It is not suitable for the environment of the sea, and more importantly, there is not enough marine life-saving equipment!
The life-saving equipment is on the ejection seat. As it separates from the ejection seat, it has already entered the sea. Therefore, Ivanov can only rely on his own efforts.
Like now.
Taking off his one-piece flight suit, Ivanov couldn’t even believe the difficult maneuvers that Ivanov made in the sea. In fact, thanks to their annual rescue training at sea. At the same time, although Ivanov is old, swimming in the sea is also one of his strengths.
After looking around, Ivanov was delighted to find that there was a reef not far away from him. It was really great!
When Ivanov swam up, he was almost exhausted. There was a signal generator on his ejection seat, which could indicate the landing position to the rear. However, the seat fell into the sea and the signal generator was also It is useless.
It also means that it is impossible for one's own people to rescue themselves. It is too difficult to find a person on the vast sea. At the same time, it is too close to the coastline of the island country. If one's own party comes here to search and rescue oneself, it will cause fierceness. Conflict.
However, in today's posture, the conflict will escalate, I am afraid it will be sooner or later!
Ivanov was sitting on the reef, waiting silently, waiting, when he felt the groaning in his stomach, finally, a helicopter appeared in the sky, an American Black Hawk helicopter.
Sure enough, the Americans should find themselves first. It seems that there is nothing to guess. Americans will definitely come to find themselves. Well, now, it seems that they can only be prisoners obediently, and they can't be hungry on this reef. Die.
"Hey, hello!" Ivanov shouted loudly into the sky, and at the same time began to wave.
"There is a gangster below." An observer said.
Ivanov had already taken off his flight suit for swimming, and now he almost only wore shorts, which seemed to have no obvious features in the sky.
"Let's go, it's not the target we're looking for." The pilot in front said, they were looking for a Soviet pilot who fell into the water, not a reckless swimmer.
Leave it to the other rescue teams, um, send a message to the coast guard of the island nation.
At this moment, suddenly, the observer discovered something: "The following is a Russian!"
The fucking guy below is actually a Russian guy, um, maybe it's the other's pilot!
"Quick, descend immediately!" Suddenly, they became excited.
They sent twenty rescue helicopters and some ships to investigate in this area, and now they finally found their target!
As the sling came down, Ivanov was rescued. After entering the helicopter, Ivanov stopped talking, but stared at the sea below with his own eyes in a daze.
I have the right to remain silent.
Vladivostok.
It was originally summer and the climate was refreshing and pleasant, but in the headquarters of the Far East Military Region, the atmosphere was particularly depressing.
"Who can tell me what the hell is going on?" A loud voice appeared in the room, and General Ivan Trechyanko, the commander of the Far Eastern Military Region, said: "One of our pilots is driving the Soviet Union. Advanced fighter jets defected? This is simply a shame to our Soviets, and even more to a shame to our Far East Military Region. A large number of people will definitely go to hell for this!"
General Trechyanko was quite angry, and he also knew how angry he would be when he reported it to Moscow.
The relevant responsible personnel must be punished. This is also to avoid being implicated in him. After all, who knows how Moscow will view this issue? What if it is the negligence of a senior commander? That would be a big trouble.
Hearing his anger, Lieutenant General Constantine Burman, the deputy commander of the Far Eastern Military Region, and the commander-in-chief of the Air Defense of the Far Eastern Military Region, had sweat on his forehead. Although it was only one adverb, he already felt his own. The location is at stake.
Lieutenant General Constantine said: "The situation has been ascertained. It was the activities of American spies that instigated Belenko's defection. We have asked the KGB to arrest the German student named Anne. She must be an American spy. ."
Of course, all the responsibilities must be transferred to the Americans, so that oneself will not be liable. Now, this is the only strategy for Lieutenant General Constantine.
Originally, it could be pushed to the pilots at the time, such as Andre, who chased up from behind, why didn't he eliminate the traitors? If there is another person, there will be a person in charge, but not now, because that is Andre.
Andre risked his life to hit the American plane, and finally crash-landed the EP-3 to his own base. Now, the secrets of the EP-3 are still being studied intensively by Soviet experts.
Andrei is already a hero of the Soviets. It is absolutely impossible for him to release the water and let Belenko fall to the enemy. Isn't this slap in the face
At the same time, the other chasing was the head of the 513 Flying Regiment of the Far Eastern Military Region. It was even less likely to make a mistake. What's more, he fought bravely and was shot down. Now his life and death are unknown.
Well, conflicts broke out. This incident will definitely not end easily! Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Constantine clenched his fists: "Now, we need to return the plane and the traitor immediately!" (End of this chapter)
