Lin Rui and others rested for a while at the Mombasa base and set off early the next morning. They traveled in two heavy-duty off-road vehicles equipped with advanced facilities. This Predator heavily armored military off-road vehicle is designed and built by Paramount Group in South Africa.
The engine with a torque of up to 1100nm gives the Predator a brute force that can easily face all obstacles and defeat gods. The thick armor can resist the attack of individual RPG rockets, the chassis can withstand the destruction of 7 pounds of TNT-equivalent bombs, and the bulletproof tires can still travel for at least 50 kilometers safely even if they are penetrated by 12.7mm rifle bullets.
The most important thing is that the bulletproof level of this vehicle has reached the third level standard recognized by NATO, which means that these two vehicles can not only resist attacks from submachine guns and grenades, but also resist the damage of anti-tank mines.
Lin Rui looked at it and shook his head. There is no way, this is the gap. Mercenary military security companies like them can't surpass large military industrial companies like Raytheon and Lockheed Martin no matter how hard they try. Only they have such rich-level equipment.
Louis in the car was wearing a body armor and a helmet on his head. He looked really nervous. It¡¯s no wonder that this drone expert has never been to a battlefield in person, and even his fingers trembling when buttoning his hat.
Lin Rui said helplessly, "Relax, Mr. Team Leader."
"If relaxing will lead to death, I would rather focus a little more." Louis shook his head and said, "Besides, you'd better return my pistol to me. Maybe having a weapon in my hand can make me less nervous.
"You are holding a gun, so you are not nervous anymore, but we are extremely nervous. Especially for a person who casually stuffs a pistol in his pocket and does not turn off the safety, we cannot relax at all." Lin Rui sighed. He took a breath and said, "So for the sake of you and all of us, we'd better not discuss this issue, okay?"
"Hey, I have a license. Besides, I received the license, which means the law gives me the legal right to hold a gun. You can't take it away" Louis argued.
"Don't talk to me about your rights, we don't care at all. Don't talk about your right to bear arms, you don't even have the basic rights stipulated in the Geneva Convention here. Do you understand? No! You are the employer in the base, We listened to you right. But outside the base, it is our business scope. I don¡¯t want anyone to affect our work, okay?" Lin Rui frowned.
"Well, if you say so." Louis muttered.
Jiang An smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Don't pay attention to Louis, he is also doing it for your own good."
"It's for my own good to hand over the gun?" Louis said dissatisfiedly.
Shogishi smiled and said, "In all the wars since the 1980s, the U.S. military has had friendly fire incidents, with an average friendly fire rate as high as 18%. Only in the 1991 Gulf War and the 2003 Iraq War, the U.S. military's war friendly fire rates were both. More than 17% and 20% respectively. So much so that American military experts lamented: battlefield friendly fire has become the second threat affecting combat effectiveness. These are well documented. As a researcher, you should know."
Louis nodded helplessly and gave up the idea of ??getting his pistol back. "Where are we going now?"
¡°Let¡¯s go to the scene of the accident first. Maybe there are any missing clues that can help us find the gangsters who stole the prototype.¡± Lin Rui explained.
"What if we don't find anything? After all, we have investigated there many times." Louis frowned.
"Then drive in the direction of the canyon and check along the way. There should be a passage where the gangsters avoided aerial reconnaissance and fled into Andira. According to the image data before the drone incident, there were many people and vehicles there. , even if it is carefully arranged in advance, there will still be some clues left." Lin Rui said.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Louis nodded.
Lin Rui and others entered Santuyak all the way from the Kenyan border, and then passed a border road with extremely poor road conditions to a valley near the Santuyak border.
"Is this right here?" Lin Rui asked Park Dong-sang who was driving.
Park Dongxiang checked the car's GPS locator, nodded and said, "That's right, it's right here."
After a few people got out of the car and checked their surroundings, they found nothing but red sand and desert weeds.
"The location where the drone crashed is right there." Louis pointed to a depression in the distance, and then turned to the direction of the valley. "According to the direction, there was a small base here in the valley at that time, but they evacuated very cleanly. Almost nothing is left.¡±
¡°Maybe they didn¡¯t evacuate too cleanly.¡± Jason, who had been squatting to check the marks on the ground,??Suddenly raised his head and said, "Look at this, what I found."
"This is a cartridge case. You can see what model it is." Lin Rui frowned.
"The specific model is unknown, but it can be seen that it is a large-caliber bullet, probably a 12.7-caliber machine gun bullet." Jason frowned.
"Large-caliber machine gun. Maybe it was this one that shot down the prototype. There should have been a lot of shell casings at that time, but they may have been too concerned about the prototype when they were clearing the battlefield, and instead somewhat ignored their own shell casings." Lin Rui took the bullet casing in Jason's hand and frowned, "Where did you find it?"
"It was in the grass, and I only found this one bullet casing." Jason frowned.
"This is not surprising. They searched this area carefully." Lin Rui thought for a while, looked at the location where Jason found the bullet casing, and then looked at the crash site. He suddenly turned around and walked to the other side. Pushing aside the grass, he sneered, "It seems my judgment is correct. There is a machine gun bunker here. You can still see it from the traces."
At this time, Jiang An came over from a distance, shook his head and said, "I also checked the nearby area, but there are no valuable clues. They handled it very well. There is this kind of red sand here, and as long as the wind blows, there will be no traces." Everything has changed, I didn¡¯t even find the tire tracks they left. What about you, what did you find?¡±
"Jason picked up a bullet casing." Lin Rui threw the bullet casing towards the shore. He took the shore in his hand, put it slightly under his nose and smelled it. He immediately frowned and said, "The shell casing that was recently completed. I can still smell the smell of gunpowder. The 12.7 caliber, the firepower is strong enough, it was left by the group." Did it come down?"
"Probably. But they are very experienced, and they can actually clean this place so thoroughly. They must also know that Raytheon Company will not give up, and will definitely come to check. That's why they cleaned this place very clean." Lin Rui thought about it. I thought, "The air in this red sandy land is dry and the wind and sand are strong, so it may be able to hide some traces. But that won't work over the canyon. There are plants there and the ground is moist, so it's easier to leave traces. Let's go there and take a look. .¡±
