During the cold war, the KGB team of fools stole the missiles from the West German military base with a hand cart.
The missile was then dismantled into parts and sent to the Soviet Union by express delivery.
In 1946, McLean, a physicist of the United States Navy, carried a group of people with sulfide lead close-fusing fuses.
He found that the fuse was sensitive to the infrared from the heat and might be used in the future on air-to-air weapons to better fight.
By the way, McCain was a scientist, not an engineer, and his job was theoretical, and nobody asked him to design a weapon.
He did this without even any funds, on his own initiative and on his own initiative, to build capitalism.
With his hard work, in 1950, he finally came up with a better sample.
He designed a missile with a near-explosive fuse in front of the missile, which is sensitive to the heat source and can guide the missile to track the enemy, thereby precisely hitting the enemy.
The air war was still in the age of machine guns, and McLean’s invention in front of the U.S. military high-ranking officials was quite impressive.
The U.S. Army immediately set up a program until mid-1956, when the first of the world’s air-to-air missiles were put into use. AIM9 – The Sniper Missile was born as a result.
But what Americans did not expect is that the first actual battle of the Sniper was not used by Americans.
In 1958, the Golden Gate war began.
In response to the defeat of the Liberation Army, the Chiang Bandits Air Force applied to the United States of America for the Snitch Snake missile and put it into action.
However, the quality of the symphony snake missile was not yet stable, and one of the many missiles fired by the Chiang bandits hit our military aircraft and did not explode, and was taken back to the ground (one said to have been found on the ground).
When our military experts found the missile, they realized the value behind it.
China handed over the missile to the Soviet Union.
The Soviet experts were also very shocked when they saw the Viper.
The Soviets at the time, through a powerful intelligence network, had known about the presence of the Sniper, but it was not the Soviets who had come to see it in that way.
The Soviet engineer’s head, Sokorovsky, believed that the missile was simply a “university” and that it had begun to be studied in an intense manner.
Soon, the Soviet K13 air missile was born, and then the Chinese Air Force was equipped with a thunderbolt 2, so that, through the Kashhen logistics, both China and the United States had air missiles.
But when these missiles are actually put into action, one finds that their effects can only be described in two words — tragic.
During the Viet Nam war, United States and Soviet warplanes made extensive use of air-air missiles.
But the technology was so immature that when the missiles were launched, they should have found the hottest source of heat, and many of the missiles were launched with a very forward-looking mind and went straight to the sun.
From 1965 to 1968, only 28 of the 175 missiles launched by the United States were hit, with a hit rate of 16 per cent; the Soviet Union was worse, with a hit rate of 12 per cent.
The technology was so primitive that the United States and Soviet Union began to develop and upgrade at the same time.
Of course, the KGB and the CIA are busy, because both sides want a “screen” to see where they’re going.
Next, the legend we’re going to talk about today, Reminger, the anti-ballistic spy who stole the missiles, is on his way.
One.
In 1930, Manfred Reminger was born in Germany, and his father was a mason, and although he was not a rich family, he had a good life.
But he had bad luck.
He’s German, but his family is in East Prussia.
As is well known, in 1941 Hitler led a small conflict between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.
And with the Soviets’ total counter-attack, Stalin needed to vent his little emotions in the post-war treatment of Germany, so the Soviet Union expelled the German inhabitants of East Prussia and demanded that Germany cut the land to the Soviet Union, making it the Gariningrad of Russia now.
In 1945, Reminger’s family was sent out by the Soviets.
But the war has destroyed everything in Europe, and the post-war Germany has been a wreck.
The Remingers were wandering, struggling for more than 1,200 kilometres, and finally settled in an area in northern Germany called Crefield.
Because they’re surprised to find out there’s a functioning city!
The reason the local government relied on it was that in March 1945, the 84th Infantry Division of the United States took over the area.
However, the Division’s operations here have been arduous because of the lack of language and the serious impact on its operations.
In a hurry, the Director ordered the division to look for German speakers and set up local administrative teams to cooperate with the forces.
At that point, a Jew who had fled to the United States for persecution by Germany had come forward.
The young man, in his capacity as a German-speaking and active-duty soldier of the United States army, quickly succeeded in bringing together a group of civil servants who had little connection with the Nazis and, after only eight days, reconstructed the administration so that the local population could live a normal life.
After that, the boy was transferred.
When the Remingers came here, it was unlikely that they would know the story of the Jewish soldier, but we knew the Jew very well, and his name was Henry Kissinger.
Although there was a change of venue, Reminge did not lose his family’s work, and, thanks to his father’s work as a valet, Reminge quickly established his foot there.
He was then admitted to Crefield Engineering College and, after a few years of graduation, Reminger became the owner of a construction company, and his chance came.
In post-war Germany, it’s harder to find a single building than a pack of empty chips, and in post-war Germany it’s in the middle of a big building.
And Reminger caught up to the wind, got a lot of money in a row, and for years he’d been making a lot of money.
The money earned by doing business is a small valet’s Reminger who turns up with a salty fish and leads a life of simple, pompous and boring rich people.
He developed two hobbies for a boring time.
One is a car race, Reminger has a rich collection of cars, nicknamed Westerly. From Ferrari to Fiat, he was a professional racer and won two championships and one army.
But the second one is special, and Remingo, like Cao Cao, is very fond of hooking up with his wife, and because he’s famous and rich, he’s famous in West Germany.
It’s like Europe without German — bad stuff. Remingo was the male enemy of West Germany in the 1950s and 1960s.
But after a long time, neither of these hobbies will satisfy Reminger.
By 1965, Remingle’s had enough of his life, he wouldn’t touch his car collection, and he didn’t want to hit on his wife.
The empty Reminge couldn’t find a new stimulus to life, and the whole man was in total decline.
By this time, Joseph Linovsky, a friend and driver of Reminger, could not sit.
Reminger’s a great hobby, but he’s got a good life for his friends and his men, so everyone’s willing to help him.
Joseph looks down on his friends and is worried.
I can’t watch you slip into the abyss like this. You’re not responsible for your life!
No, you have to pull yourself together. You and I will spy for the Soviet Union!
Two.
Joseph was three years older than Reminger, born in 1927, a Polish Jew.
This time was born in this capacity, and it is clear to everyone that his fate should be bad.
Unfortunately, however, the Jewish wave in which Joseph was present had been repeatedly transferred between various camps and rescued by United States forces before the Nazis had taken the bait.
He had fled to Poland to find his family, but his family had been separated.
Relatives were not found, but the Polish Security Service gave him a copy in 1951.
It is not known what the Polish Security Department has used since then that Joseph has become a Polish spy and has been sent to West Germany to learn about the situation, such as where there are military bases and the presence of United States troops in West Germany.
After the establishment of the Intelligence Service of the Nine Kingdoms in 1947, the Polish intelligence services were essentially equivalent to the KGB office in Warsaw.
Because of his efforts, he was admitted to the KGB for his own benefit, and directly ordered Joseph to develop a network of intelligence around him in Germany.
But the order clearly fails to understand Joseph’s social status, and while he’s a spy, it sounds cool, he’s in West Germany, and he’s just a little driver.
He wanted to develop Western Germany, but in his position, the only way to talk to people was to float.
So, despite the KGB mandate, Joseph has not developed anyone in West Germany for 10 years.
By the middle of the 1960s, the KGB could not sit down, you would have done well, you would not have been able to fool us with a little bit of intel. What about you? What about your network?
Joseph, who was pushed over his head by the red KPI, felt like he was at the crossroad of life, and he had no imagination in Garcia, and he couldn’t make up an intelligence network.
Not only did the KGB ask him to get off the line, it also gave him one sick mission after another, such as stealing an American F4 fighter, or bringing in NATO’s navigation system.
Joseph carefully considered whether there was some misunderstanding of his ability in the organization, but he remembered what Plato’s legend, Labrador, had said — not as hard as it should be.
So he decided to start with the people around him.
Just as Reminger’s state at this time is not in the sun, so Joseph is ready to go down from Reminger.
What he did not realize was that Reminger had not hesitated in the face of that invitation, which was too exciting for him to accept recruitment.
In addition, he turned his back and took over all of Joseph’s tasks and directly contacted the KGB.
The KGB, far from Lubyanka, was stunned by him, and it was said that they had never seen a spy so motivated.
But subjectivity does not change the objective reality, and the brothers are still unable to steal a plane to the Soviet Union.
After a couple of discussions between Reminger and Joseph, you think we should at least find someone who can fly? But where?
One day Reminger and Joseph were playing poker in a tavern while the two were worried.
Those who played cards with them started a six-poster at the cards table, saying that they were the best pilots, that the battles in the air were better than the black devils, that the short soldiers met the red baron, and that there was no plane in the world that they could not handle.
After listening to him, they looked at each other.
The two of you are going to give this big brother a generous hand.
For a while, they knew that the old man, Wolf Knop, had been flying a fighter since 1956, and that he was serving at the Noyce base, with advanced American equipment.
To a man like that, it’s a mistake not to join.
The two of them asked Knorp to eat and drink every day, and a few days later Reminger and Joseph showed up on Knop.
I heard you guys have a lot of good stuff at the airport. Someone wants to collect it. Can you come out and sell it? You take the big head and we’ll have some soup.
Knop, who was eating like revenge, stopped listening, and gave them a happy answer, saying that no one knew the airport better than me.
Reminger was so excited after hearing it, and he said, “How about the F4s in your hangar?”
One sentence almost choked Kenop to death, and he said that you might have misunderstood me, and I don’t mind contributing to Soviets, but I figured it out, not enough.
The sound of that fighter coming off is six or seven miles away. Don’t tell me to drive it to the Soviet Union. I’ll be a box if I don’t get to East Germany. Would you stop messing with this big stuff and pick a good one?
Reminger thought he had a point, so he flipped out the thick mission note, and a few people picked and picked it up, and finally found a target — that, the latest American snitch, can you get it out?
3
For this goal, Knoop’s big-ass, says it’s a good thing.
Reminger thinks you’re using the military base as a rookie station? You want to take something? We have to plan this.
As a strict German, Knop is very disconcerting about the spirit of their craftsmen.
What’s your plan? One night, you guys drive over, I’ll take you out the missile and pull it out.
Reminger and Joseph tried so hard to convince Knop, but he couldn’t make it.
Without his cooperation, the two men who had not entered the base were unable to plan their plans and were eventually able to trust him by preparing their cars in the city and waiting for the call of Knop.
On October 21, 1967, Reminger got a call, and Knop told him there’s a fog forecast tomorrow.
So Reminger picked out a low-key Mercedes and took Joseph all the way to the Noiburg base.
When we got to the destination, the two men made it outside the base on the night of the 22nd.
So Reminger was on standby in the car and Joseph was going to meet Knop.
And then, you think he’s going over the wire to hide from the infrared?
No, when Knop contacted Joseph, he came out of the base and received him. Two men entered the base from the main gate.
Because Knop has a pass, he and the airport guards are the cannibal tribe, BBQ — that’s an old acquaintance.
As a result, no one at the base questioned him and Joseph, and they moved all the way to the airport weapons depot.
Upon arrival at the weapons depot, Joseph turned on his flashlight and took pictures of the Viper missile and started looking for something.
But before I found it, Knop kicked it out. Isn’t that on the shelf on your left? Let’s go!
He was angry when Joseph came to the Sniper. Why didn’t you say its size?
This thing’s 3 meters long. We run him to the corner of the base without anyone else, we’re tired!
Knop says what’s so hard about this? Wait for me!
He then went to the next base to find a wheelbarrow, and he pushed the missile into the wheelbarrow and left.
The missiles were pushed all the way to the airport wall and Reminger was driving outside the wall.
The two men carried the missiles and walked you straight out the wall.
Looks like you’re almost alive. Knop says you’ll wait for me. I’ll return the wheelbarrow.
After a few minutes, he put the wheelbarrow back in the warehouse and walked out the main gate of the base with Joseph.
Throughout the process, the German Air Force base, which had sentinel posts, dog watch at night and Jeep patrols, was stopped by no one as worthy of the cold war bridgehead.
As for Knop and Joseph, you said they were stealing, and he went into the plain, and you said they did not use any violence, so their deeds could only be described as taking.
Waiting outside for their Reminger, I didn’t think it would take them more than 20 minutes to finish their mission, and I sincerely admired a man who was so quick!
But they are faced with another problem — the fact that the car was chosen without taking into account the size of the missile, which was too narrow in the back of the car, and the fact that the missile was more than three metres long.
The missiles were thrown into the car with all their hands and feet, but it was almost dawn and it was not in there.
In the end, Joseph finally managed to live with his guts, kicks the glass in the back of the car and puts the missile through the window, but then turns into a half of the missile in the car and a half outside.
So Reminger found a carpet, wrapped the part outside the window. Go! Let’s go home!
The Noiburg air base is approximately 400 km from Reminger ‘ s home, and is more than four hours away.
In broad daylight, with this missing missile vehicle, he returned safely to Reminger ‘ s house, without any police questioning.
What happens when we hide the missiles in the basement?
It’s coming out, but how do you hand them over to the Soviets?
It’s a little difficult to go overland and be heavily guarded at the border between Germany and Germany.
They’re not equipped to cross the Baltic.
What do you want to do with so many bends?
It’s going to Moscow. Just a delivery.

During the cold war, while East-West confrontations were severe, the Soviet Union and Western Europe were not physically isolated, and logistics and civil aviation communication between the two sides remained constant.
So Reminger’s method is to break the missile into parts and post it directly to Moscow by air.
Having heard Reminger’s plan, does Joseph mean you’re crazy? The Germans lost their missiles. Didn’t you send it by express?
Reminger just shut them up — so we have to hurry, before the Germans find out!
Several people moved overnight and quickly disassembled the missile into parts, loaded it into two large boxes, then went to the post office and sent an air courier.
When completing the declaration, the item was written as “demeanor metal”.
Neither the shipping company nor the German customs authorities have raised any objection to the two packages, which were successfully entered into the postal system at a postage rate of US$ 75.25, which is affordable.
After sending the delivery, Reminger arrived in Moscow on his own plane and waited here every day for the post office to deliver the items.
But he didn’t come to the right or to the left.
So he made a phone call.
Originally, there were few air couriers at the time, and in keeping with the principle of non-arrival, the airline had collided on the delivery, and the aircraft that gave the Remingra missile, first to Paris and then to Copenhagen, then to Germany, was ready to leave when the cargo was full.
Eventually, 10 days later than expected, the German side delivered to Moscow a missile-mounted fast.
When the delivery was dismantled and the missile material was seen, the KGB officials were collectively staring.
What kind of carbon-based bioenergy is that?
However, the world view of Soviet agents was struck by a huge shock when the missile parts were actually in front of them.
People say to Reminger, brother, we’re done.
Shortly thereafter, on the basis of United States missiles, the Soviet Union launched a new type of K13M-type air missile, which is huge in performance and has given NATO a huge impact.
The KGB, as the most important performer, did not take advantage of the Remingers, who gave Reminger 92,000 Deutsche Marka $8,500, which is almost the equivalent of the current Euro500,000.
Reminger’s worth a lot of money, but this is exciting and exciting.
So, how did the German side react to this?
The answer is no, because they’re all…
No! Cash!
5
For more than a year after Reminger had stolen the missile, the German military did not react because they did not find themselves missing a missile.
More than a year later, it was during the inventory of the warehouse that the Germans discovered that there was a compost snake missing.
But they still don’t suspect that it was stolen, but rather that it was a pilot who dropped out of the sea.
After confirming that it was not lost by the pilot, the Germans could not explain the missile’s loss.
Germany and the United States have set up joint investigation teams, and they are convinced that — there must be Soviet undercover at the top of the base, and the two sides should co-operate to get rid of the missiles!
As a result, both Germany and the United States have embarked on a difficult screening exercise, and everyone inside the base has passed, with the result naturally nothing.
As the American investigation progressed, it became clear that stealing from the base was no more difficult than cleaning a shared bicycle and did not require an insider.
If any of the other leaked bases are leaks, this Fort Noey is a scaffold!
But even so, they can’t confirm who stole the missile. Because more than a year has passed and there was no surveillance in that year, the investigation team had no way to start.
At the critical moment, one person helped them.
After the Soviet Union had received a reward, Reminger returned to Germany directly, and, although he had done so much, he did not fear anything, but felt he was born to be a spy and prepared for a new mission.
He gave the money to his partner Joseph and the pilot Knop.
When Joseph gets the money, he keeps his head down. But when Knop got the money, he started poking around and spending every day.
But it’s not as bad as it looks, but it’s also a brain atrophy.
The problem is, he still hasn’t changed the way he’s been bragging about it. One day in October 1968, Knorp was drunk in a tavern, and the shit-sheller hit a charade — a stinky mouth, and he was supposed to tell the guys in the bar about stealing his missile.
Unfortunately, his audience included a member of the German Constitutional Protection Agency.
The brazen Knorp was arrested on the spot, brought into the joint investigation team for the first time, and when he woke up, he got cold blood, and he didn’t even have to do the big memory restoration.
Joseph and Remingo, who were not psychologically prepared, were not released and were directly arrested and imprisoned.
When the process was fully understood, the United States troops involved in the investigation were surprised.
This was a disgrace to the West German Government, and the Federal Prosecutor ‘ s Office tried to keep a low profile when it launched the indictment, fearing media attention, and not even talking about espionage, prosecuting three people for theft and treason.
The court also sentenced him to very low sentences, and in October 1970 Reminger and Joseph were sentenced to four years ‘ imprisonment and Knop to three years ‘ imprisonment.
As a spy in West Germany, the sentence is so light, and it’s no wonder people don’t think they’re Soviet spies.
But I didn’t go to jail.
Having heard that the three of them were quite loyal after their imprisonment, the KGB immediately contacted West Germany to express its willingness to exchange the six NATO spies in their hands for them, without sending them to the Soviet Union and freeing them.
The West German side found it appropriate to trade the three living treasures for six spies, and in August 1971 the missile triad was released.
Reminger, who had regained his freedom, returned to his home town, Crefield, and continued to contact the KGB, offering to continue to fight for the cause of the Soviet Union.
He’s getting tired of the KGB, which means you’re old. We don’t have that many hostages to save you.
Reminger, who has lost his life goal, can only continue to live with his filthy rich man.
In 1997, Reminger, 57 years old, was assassinated by two assassins in Antwerp, Belgium, allegedly for drug-related reasons, and died in the underground parking lot.
The Jewish Joseph, on his release, returned to Poland and then, without information, continued his undercover career, perhaps a quiet life somewhere.
As for the central figure, the pilot Knop, who was naturally expelled from the German army after his release from prison, was still unable to control his pompous expression.
After 30 years of hard labour, in 2003 his expression finally became like a son of a bitch — he couldn’t stand it.
He published a memoir called ” I, Star Warplane Pilots and Sniper Missiles ” , which, unfortunately, has not been sold as much as I might have been.
However, as Knord succeeds in his life, he should still live somewhere in Potstan, Germany, and be the only witness to this history. Record number: YXA12eo1o2DuwA5QxoyC3K3Q
