Chapter 550: Test flight of J-20 Weilong?
‘Yaodong’ base.
Jiang Chen jumped out of the cockpit of the plane.
I saw a relatively small fighter plane parked not far away, with a slightly similar appearance to the J-7.
Moreover, this fighter is not a silver-gray paint commonly used by the Dongda Air Force, nor is it a yellow paint for the test aircraft.
It's camouflage painting.
He walked over with his flying helmet.
He hit a pilot standing next to the light fighter and said, "Oh, where did the 'Joinlong' come from?"
The pilot came to his senses.
Looking at Jiang Chen, he shrugged and said, "Where did it come from? Of course it was sent by Cheng Fei."
"Fighter Dragon-3, right?" Jiang Chen's attention was completely attracted by this 'FC-1 Fighter Dragon' fighter.
He asked while looking up and down.
The test pilot standing next to him nodded, "You kid are quite good at seeing each other, but you actually know it's the Fox Dragon-3."
"I'm not blind."
Jiang Chen stretched his hand over his head.
On tiptoe, he patted the head of the camera and said, "The rapier of the Xiaolong-1 is so small. Didn't I know a few scientific researchers from Cheng Fei some time ago? I heard that Pakistan has not been very satisfied with the Xiaolong-1 and the Xiaolong-2 in the past two years, so I asked Cheng Fei to make major changes to the Xiaolong. The radar cover of this aircraft is obviously larger than that of 1 and 2, so I guess it should have stuffed a new airborne radar into it, so I guess this prototype should be the latest model of the Xiaolong, the Xiaolong-3."
The JF-11 fighter is a light fighter developed by Chengfei, funded by Pakistan, and jointly developed by both sides.
As early as the 1990s.
Pakistan has already put forward cooperation needs to Cheng Fei.
So the two sides officially cooperated in 1998.
Then 5 years later.
That is August 25, 2003.
The first JF-17 fighter jet was successfully flew.
The project was originally codenamed ‘Super Seven’, which Pakistan calls it JF-17 Thunderbolt.
At the beginning, we were preparing to improve research and development based on the J-7.
But later, the more I changed, the more magic it became.
Change to the end.
Except for the appearance, it has a little similarity, and other aspects have nothing to do with "Qiye".
The JF-11 fighter jet was delivered to Pakistan for service as early as 2007, and many third-world countries are also interested in this affordable fighter jet.
However, the JF-1's avionics system, bomb load capacity, and fire control radar have major flaws.
Therefore, it is based on Party A's requirements.
Cheng Fei continues to improve the Xiaolong.
Just a few years later.
The first flight of Xiaolong-2 was successfully completed and was successfully delivered to Pakistan.
In the second half of last year, the first prototype of the Xiaolong-3 was also developed.
After a maximum of one or two years of test flights and verification.
Xiaolong-3 can also be mass-produced.
Although the Dongda Air Force did not participate in the "Fight Long" project, the project is currently a business card for Dongda's foreign arms sales, so the test flight brigade also participated in the research and development and test flight of the project.
This is why a JF-10-3 prototype appeared on the tarmac.
The Fighter Long fighter is a light fighter.
The empty weight is eight tons.
Normal takeoff weight is nine tons.
The maximum take-off weight is 13.5 tons.
Max Mach 1.6.
The maximum combat radius of carrying the secondary fuel tank is 1,200 kilometers.
For the Dongda Air Force, the Xiaolong is indeed a useless person.
But for some small countries.
The JF-11 is completely enough in terms of range or bomb load.
Especially the Fox Dragon-3.
A light fighter is actually equipped with KLJ-7A-mounted active phased array radar, and it also uses some avionics used by the J-20 Veyron.
Even the pneumatic layout has been changed. Increased stealth performance.
In addition, the Xiaolong-3 also has 8 weapon plug-ins, which can complete air, ground and sea attacks.
It can even carry a variety of medium and long-range air-to-air missiles.
Such a "perfect" fighter jet costs only US$30 to 40 million.
If political factors are excluded.
Those small countries are not allowed to rob them?
pity.
Foreign arms sales are always political first and then military first.
Those countries would rather buy castrated F-16 even if they need to sign the Americans with short-range air-to-air missiles, they cannot buy the F-16-3.
You dare to imagine.
Every time the F-35 lightning that the Stick Air Force flies to buy on its own, it requires the Americans to unlock it remotely and then successfully start it after obtaining the key.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
That is to say.
Americans want to do bad things.
After Bangzi took off the F-35, he locked the plane again.
Then the f-35 driven by the stick will fall from the sky like a big iron block.
But even so.
The stick is still as sweet as you like.
Why is Bangzi still so happy?
Because there is no choice for the stick.
After walking around this Xiaolong-3.
Jiang Chen then returned to Liu Jiarong's side.
Asked, "Did this Xiaolong just be transported here today? How do you feel if you can't fly by?"
"The base we are going back to with you." Liu Jiarong said, "I will fly another round later to test the avionics system."
"How to say it, it's okay to fly, but it's still far from the J-10 Raptors."
"Nonsense." Jiang Chen said angrily, "Why don't you say that it's far worse than the J-20? A light aircraft, a medium aircraft, and the light aircraft is still raised by a stepmother. Can the two be compared?"
"I've finished flying today. If you are tired later, I'll help you fly around." Jiang Chen said again.
"How about you help me fly, how about I help you fly?" Liu Jiarong rubbed his hands and said, "Let me feel the charm of the fifth-generation aircraft, too."
"Go." Jiang Chen raised his chin, "As long as Shen Fei agrees, I will agree one hundred times."
"Get out." Liu Jiarong raised his feet and wanted to kick him, "It turns out that you can't make a decision. Since you can't make a decision, you can't say anything."
"I have flash." Jiang Chen avoided.
Just when the two of them were chatting.
A tractor slowly dragged a J-20 Veyron out of the hangar from a distance.
The attention of the two people was instantly attracted by the J-20.
Until the plane was towed.
The two of them came to their senses.
Liu Jiarong sighed, "Damn, I'm going to fly the J-20 today. I don't know if the test pilot is Deng Fei. Now you are not competing with him. He is simply ahead of us and left us all behind."
Jiang Chen's face was solemn.
Because he knew what it meant to test flights of the J-20 Veyron today.
It means that my "fishing" in the past few days has not played any role at all.
This means that the base's top management feels that the potential danger has been ruled out.
You can test flights of the J-20 with confidence.
But.
Are potential threats really excluded?
It's only been over a week.
Isn't it too risky?
Thinking of this.
Jiang Chen no longer talked about Liu Jiarong.
Instead, he hurriedly walked towards the flight briefing room not far away with him.
But if Jiang Chen knew that the opponent's target was no longer the J-20, but the Fc-31 Falcon Eagle.
Do you feel that you are too worried?
Are you laughing and crying?
