Chapter 1196 Spy Shadow

In order to stabilize Saudi Arabia and prevent it from being shaken by the United States' victory in the Iraq War, Panshan Group decided to give Saudi Arabia the two aircraft carriers ordered by Saudi Arabia after New Year's Day, together with the frigates, destroyers, missile boats, torpedo boats and submarines to be delivered in the next one or two years, so that Saudi Arabia can have three aircraft carrier fleets.

Originally, these two aircraft carriers were not to be delivered until 2006.

Although the outfitting has actually been completed this year, the original plan was that these two Type 001 aircraft carriers would first serve as training ships for the Chinese Navy to train naval officers and soldiers.

But now the situation is not right, and Saudi Arabia has to be encouraged.

Although the Zhuhai Air Show has just started, the export of the Type 001 light aircraft carrier has been finalized.

Egypt, South Africa, Libya, Myanmar, Indonesia, the Philippines, Argentina and Brazil have each ordered one, a total of 8 ships, and the Type 001 aircraft carrier, including carrier-based aircraft and training fees, costs 10 billion yuan per ship.

Originally, Liu Tao did not plan to export so many Type 001 light aircraft carriers, because warships are not suitable for exporting too much, so as to avoid the expansion of the naval power of some countries and some inappropriate ideas.

But later, I thought that the Americans were now confident and might take military adventures in the Asia-Pacific region, so I had to find something for the Americans to do, so as to avoid the Americans' unlimited energy.

Now, with the level of China's shipbuilding industry, a Type 001 light aircraft carrier can be delivered in just four years. If eight Type 001 light aircraft carriers are built at the same time, they can all be delivered in four years. Even considering the cost, they can all be delivered in at most six years.

This Zhuhai Air Show will last for a total of 7 days.

There are so many people visiting the Zhuhai Air Show, and the number of people received by the Zhuhai Air Show has exceeded the previous one.

There are even many overseas military fans who come to Zhuhai for tourism.

So much so that even the Zhuhai government, which had made sufficient preparations before, found that it was still not prepared when the Zhuhai Air Show started, and many people still couldn't find hotels and homestays to stay.

The Zhuhai government has personally mobilized to allow more tourists to stay in people's homes, and the guesthouses and hotels of the municipal government, district government, etc. are all open to the public.

Even so, some tourists still have no place to stay. After all, they come to see the Zhuhai Air Show, and they don't want to stay too far away.

The Zhuhai government simply set up tents on the nearby beach and let tourists stay overnight in the tents for free.

Hunter, wearing a denim jacket and sunglasses, is visiting Huaxia's drones.

Hunter applied for entry in the name of participating in the Zhuhai Air Show tourism, with a 14-day visa. His external identity is an aviation enthusiast, but in fact Hunter is a CIA agent and a technical agent who graduated from MIT.

The US intelligence system has a total of 18 departments, including the US Central Intelligence Agency, the US State Department's Intelligence Research Institute, the US Department of Justice's Federal Bureau of Investigation and Drug Enforcement Administration, the US Department of Homeland Security's Intelligence and Analysis Bureau and Coast Guard Intelligence Agency, the US Department of Energy's Intelligence and Counterintelligence Office, the US Department of Treasury's Intelligence and Analysis Bureau, the US Department of Defense's National Security Agency, the National Reconnaissance Office, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, the US Army's Military Intelligence Bureau, the US Navy's Naval Intelligence Office, the US Air Force's 16th Air Force, the US Marine Corps' Intelligence Bureau, and the US Space Force's National Space Intelligence Center.

The CIA is the most powerful intelligence system in the United States, with four main components: the Management Division, the Operations Division, the Science and Technology Division, and the Intelligence Division. No one knows how many people there are in the CIA, but conservative estimates put it at more than 20,000.

According to the new US fiscal budget, the US intelligence budget in 2005 will reach 120 billion US dollars, of which the CIA will get 80 billion US dollars.

The US military expenditure in the new year will reach 790 billion US dollars, a staggering figure.

The end of the Iraq War did not make the US cut military spending, but increased it.

Hunter came to the Zhuhai Air Show this time to collect intelligence so that the CIA can conduct scientific and reasonable analysis.

Any air show or weapons show in the world is a gold mine for spies, and this Zhuhai Air Show is no exception.

There are too many weapons and equipment worth collecting intelligence at the Zhuhai Air Show.

The CIA will send agents to every Zhuhai Air Show.

"Is this the 'Hai Dongqing' unmanned reconnaissance aircraft? It seems to be a high-altitude long-range unmanned reconnaissance aircraft!" Hunter looked at the 'Hai Dongqing' unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, and his eyes flashed.

Although he could not get close to it, he quickly made a judgment based on his expertise.

However, the specific performance of this ‘Hai Dong Qing’ unmanned reconnaissance aircraft needs to be judged by more professional experts.

“It would be great if we could get close to it!” Hunter said secretly.

In order to avoid leaks of appearance details and materials, weapons exhibitions and air shows often prohibit spectators from getting close to it.

For example, the United States has always prohibited people from getting close to stealth fighters, because the stealth coating of stealth fighters may be scraped off and then studied at such close distances, causing leaks.

Shooting the ‘Hai Dong Qing’ unmanned reconnaissance aircraft from different angles will be precious video materials.

The camera in his hand looks no different from other tourists' cameras, but it is actually a specially modified high-end spy camera.

Just this camera costs as much as one million US dollars.

After visiting the 'Sai Dongqing' unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, Hunter visited the 'Rainbow' drone and the 'Wing Loong' drone. When he saw the weapon racks of these two drones, Hunter judged that these two drones were used for ground attacks.

Hunter couldn't judge how these two drones were compared to the Americans' own drones, but he knew that new exhibits like this must be taken seriously, otherwise the US military would suffer a great loss if they didn't understand them.

Hunter would not underestimate China, because it is the world's largest industrial country today and a veritable 'world factory'. China's industry covers high, medium and low ends.

Whoever underestimates China will suffer a great loss.

Hunter saw that there were other people taking pictures. Looking at the other person's hand shape, Hunter felt that the other person was like him, and there was a high probability that he was an intelligence officer, but he didn't know whether he was from Russia or Europe.

Hunter was sure that there were at least 800 intelligence officers from various countries at the Zhuhai Air Show.

Hunter shook his head when he thought of the strength of China's security checks. It was not easy to bring a pistol to China with such a strong security check.

Even in China, ordinary Chinese people always looked at them with a kind of scrutiny and were wary of them.

As long as there were flaws, I'm afraid ordinary Chinese people would call the police, and then the police would come to their door.

The American intelligence officers in China include international students, foreign company staff, embassy or consulate staff, tourists, and some people who have a great liking for the United States.

But it is not so easy to carry out intelligence work in China. (End of this chapter)
