A massive beam of detection magic swept across the entire sky...
The beam was like the most powerful eraser. A few casual strokes across the sky, and it found something suspicious.
The beam grazed one corner of a super-blimp far larger than an ordinary aircraft carrier, instantly revealing its general outline.
It was an olive-shaped airship, constantly billowing clouds of mist that enveloped it.
The clouds in this airspace weren't naturally formed. Carrying special shielding substances, they gave the airship another kind of "invisibility."
The Russian bastards had come up with the idea during the Cold War, and the super-blimp they built was truly impressive!
It didn't just have a special "cloaking" trick; the materials used to build it were probably unusual, too.
Little A's radar was surely the most advanced in the world right now. Yet even when Alvin's beam of magic illuminated one corner of the airship, Little A's sensors still detected nothing.
Alvin quickly swept the airspace where the airship was, as if erasing a blackboard.
The instant its entire outline appeared, Alvin shook his head in astonishment and said, "The Russians really are crazy!
I wouldn't even be surprised if they flew this thing into outer space.
What do they need it for?
As long as they dare to deploy aircraft, anyone paying attention will be able to figure out roughly where they are...
What's the point of an airborne carrier that can't afford to be seen?

"That might be why Russia only built one...
It was a toy that cost hundreds of billions of dollars, so in the end, they mothballed it."
Then Natasha spoke in a pleading tone. "Principal Alvin, we're going up.
