Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 429

Chapter 429: Chapter 211: Glimmers of Hope in Darkness Chapter 429: Chapter 211: Glimmers of Hope in Darkness Yan Fei's destination this time was the US Andersen Strategic Air Force Base on Guam. The Andersen Strategic Air Force Base is the most important forward base of the US Air Force in the Western Pacific and is also one of the world's renowned large comprehensive air force bases. It is located at Pati Point in the northeastern part of Guam, covering an area of 66.8 square kilometers. The base has two runways, with an average length of 3,416 meters each and a width of 61 meters, capable of accommodating up to 150 B-52 strategic bombers, and is currently garrisoned with nearly 3,000 Air Force and Navy personnel.

Not only are combat aircraft such as the F-15 and F-16 stationed at Andersen Strategic Air Force Base, but also strategic bombers like the B-52, B-2, and B-1B, and even the US's latest stealth fighter jets, such as the F-22 and F-35. This air force base is extremely important; it could be said to be the US base with the most diverse array of aircraft deployed outside the homeland.

Among the five drone upgrade templates, Yan Fei first discarded China's J-20 stealth fighter jet, then, considering the gap in combat capabilities, he gave up on Russia's SU-57 stealth fighter. In the end, only the US's B-2, F-22, and F-35 stealth aircraft remained. Therefore, regardless of which stealth fighter jet Yan Fei eventually chose as the upgrade template, he could find the actual aircraft at Andersen Strategic Air Force Base on Guam and complete the entire scanning process.

The reason why Yan Fei chose Andersen Strategic Air Force Base as his destination is that Guam is an island, with an area of less than 600 square kilometers, surrounded by the sea on all sides, making it very convenient for drone concealment and deployment. Compared to the US domestic air force bases located in the inland heartland, this Andersen Strategic Air Force Base was, for Yan Fei, as if undefended.

The drone rapidly submerged underwater, quickly leaving China's territorial waters. As soon as it just entered the high seas, it immediately surfaced and took off, sprinting toward Guam in a low-altitude seskimming flight. In just an hour, the drone arrived near the territorial waters of Guam. The straight-line distance from Shanghai to Guam is only 2,600 kilometers, and the route is entirely over the ocean, with no other military bases in between, which is why the drone was able to quickly reach the sea area near Guam in such a short time.

However, upon reaching a point 100 kilometers from Guam, the drone once again submerged and sped along the seabed. Just ahead was Guam, America's most important military base overseas, where security measures were so extreme it bordered on paranoia. For the sake of safety, Yan Fei had no choice but to descend with the drone below the surface, approaching Guam from beneath the sea.

To ensure that the sound of the drone's submerged travel wouldn't be detected by the US's underwater sonar, the drone reduced its submerged travel speed to 100 kilometers per hour. Even with the reduced speed, an hour later, Yan Fei still arrived in the territorial waters of Guam. However, it was now one o'clock in the morning Guam time, and the island was shrouded in darkness. Without a passport, Yan Fei could not land and stay at a hotel, so he simply opted to sleep in the drone cockpit.

Guam time is two hours ahead of Shanghai time, so when it was 2 am in Guam, the drone went through a data refresh, restoring its combat power to its peak.

Yan Fei regained his full combat strength, but he had no intention of using the drone to forcefully penetrate Andersen Strategic Air Force Base on Guam. After all, Guam was the military center of the United States in the Western Pacific, with not just an air force base, but also naval and army bases, and even a secretive missile troop presence. Hence, even with his Drone Avatar's formidable strength, it was impossible for Yan Fei to overpower the entire base of US forces.

Therefore, Yan Fei had formulated his operation plan before arriving: to disguise himself as a tourist visiting Guam, gradually get close to Andersen Strategic Air Force Base, first understand the entire situation of the air force base, then locate where the target stealth fighter was, followed by devising a specific combat plan, hoping to scan the upgrade template without anyone being the wiser. As long as he could complete this scan and successfully upgrade the drone, Yan Fei would be free to do as he pleased thereafter, no longer fearing any threats against him.

Guam is a famous tourist destination in the Pacific Ocean, with many popular attractions, even the periphery of Andersen Strategic Air Force Base is open for casual visitation. That's why Yan Fei planned to blend in with tourists visiting the base, to complete the final procedure before the drone upgrade.

With a preliminary action plan in place, Yan Fei became patient. He began to conserve his energy in the drone cockpit, adjusting his state for the next day's operations. Soon, the sun rose on a new morning in Guam. Yan Fei had already reached the island, but he had altered his appearance, disguising himself as a dark-skinned local middle-aged man, wandering the streets of Guam.

The season was the peak of tourism in Guam, the streets crowded with tourists from all over the world with varying skin colors. Yan Fei, blending in seamlessly among the tourists, went with the flow, visiting various sites before boarding the public bus heading toward Andersen Strategic Air Force Base. After a journey of over half an hour, he finally arrived at the northeastern tip of Guam where Andersen Strategic Air Force Base was located.
