During the air battle, the altitude was not very high, and when Ivanov parachuted, he was almost only a few hundred meters above the sea, and his parachute had just been stretched out before it splashed into the water.

No pilot wants to have the moment when he pulls the ejection handle, but now Ivanov can only be glad that at least he is still alive.

The MiG-25 is a high-altitude and high-speed fighter, and its performance exceeds that of any previous fighter, but its ejection seat is the same model as the previous MiG-21, that is, when the speed is too fast and the altitude is too high, parachuting is useless, and the personal safety of the pilot cannot be guaranteed at all.

Now, when splashing into the water, Ivanov is also glad that he is not entangled in the paracord, which is a dead end.

He released his parachute, then took off his helmet, and in the sea it was all quite difficult.

As the sea water continues to soak into his clothes, his clothes will become heavier and heavier, and eventually pull his body 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 is not suitable for the environment of the sea, and more importantly, there is not enough marine life-saving equipment!

The life-saving equipment was on the ejection seat, and with the separation from the ejection seat, it had already entered the seawater, so Ivanov could only rely on his own efforts.

Like now.

Taking off his one-piece flight suit, Ivanov made difficult maneuvers in the sea water, even he couldn't believe it, in fact, thanks to the fact that they have to carry out lifesaving training at sea once a year, and at the same time, Ivanov, despite his age, swimming at sea is also one of his strengths.

When he looked around, Ivanov was delighted to find that there was a reef not far from him, which was really wonderful!

When Ivanov swam up, almost exhausted, he had a signal generator on his ejection seat, which could indicate the landing position to the rear, but the seat fell into the sea, and the signal generator was useless.

It also means that it is impossible for your own people to save themselves, it is too difficult to find a person on the vast sea, and at the same time, this place is too close to the coastline of the island country, if you come here to search and rescue yourself, it will cause a fierce conflict.

However, today's posture, the conflict escalates, I am afraid that it will be sooner or later!

Ivanov sat on the reef, silently waiting, waiting, and when he felt a rumbling in his stomach, finally, a helicopter appeared in the sky, an American Black Hawk helicopter.

Sure enough, it is the Americans who find themselves first, it seems that there is nothing to guess, the Americans will definitely come to find themselves, well, now, it seems that they can only be obediently taken prisoner, and they can't starve to death on this reef.

"Hey, hey!" Ivanov shouted loudly into the sky and at the same time began to wave.

"There's a naked man down there." An observer said.

Ivanov had long taken off his flight suit in order to swim, and now, almost only wearing pants, which looked in the sky without too obvious features.

"Let's go, it's not what we're looking for." The pilot in front said they were looking for a Soviet pilot who had fallen overboard, not a reckless swimmer.

Leave it to the other rescue teams, well, send a message to the coast guard of the island nation.

At that moment, suddenly, the observer noticed something: "There's a Russian guy down there!" ”

The naked person below is actually a Russian, well, maybe it's the other party's pilot!

"Quick, go down now!" Immediately, they became excited.

They sent twenty rescue helicopters and a few boats to scout the area, and now, they have finally found their target!

As the hanging plate came down, Ivanov was rescued, and after entering the helicopter, Ivanov stopped talking, just stared at the sea below with his own eyes in a daze.

They have the right to be silent.

Vladivostok.

It was supposed to be summer, and the climate was refreshing and pleasant, but in the headquarters of the Far Eastern Military District, the atmosphere was particularly oppressive.

"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?" A loud voice appeared in the room, and the commander of the Far Eastern Military District, Colonel-General Ivan Tretyanko, said: "One of our pilots, piloting the most advanced Soviet fighter, defected? This is simply a shame for our Soviets, and even more so for our Far Eastern Military District, and a large number of people will definitely go to hell for this! ”

Admiral Trecyanko was quite angry, and he also knew how angry he would be when it was reported to Moscow.

The relevant responsible personnel must be punished, and this is also done to avoid implicating him, after all, who knows what Moscow will think about this issue? And what if it was the negligence of the senior commander? That's a big problem.

Hearing his anger, the deputy commander of the Far Eastern Military District, Lieutenant General Konstantin Bourman, who was also the commander-in-chief of the air defense forces of the Far Eastern Military District, was covered with sweat on his forehead, although he was only one lieutenant short, but he already felt that his position was precarious.

Lieutenant General Konstantin said: "The situation has been clarified, it was the activities of American spies who instigated Belenko's defection, and we have asked the KGB to arrest the German student named Anne, who must be a spy for the Americans." ”

Of course, all the blame must be shifted to the Americans, so that there is no responsibility for their own side, and now Lieutenant General Konstantin's only coping strategy is this.

Originally, it could have been pushed to the pilots at that time, such as Andrei, who caught up behind, why didn't he eliminate the traitor? If there was a different person, there would be a person in charge, but not now, because it was Andrey.

Andrei risked his life to crash into an American plane and finally forced the EP-3 to his own base, and now the secrets on 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 water and let Belenko surrender to the enemy, isn't this a slap in the face?

At the same time, the other one who pursued, the commander of the 513 Flying Regiment of the Far Eastern Military District, was even less likely to make a mistake, not to mention, he fought bravely, but as a result, he was shot down, and now his life and death are unknown.

Well, a conflict actually broke out, and this incident will definitely not end easily! Thinking of this, Lieutenant General Konstantin clenched his fists: "Now, we need to bring back both the plane and the traitor at once!" ”
