Chapter 207 The J-10 fighter jet begins its test flight
Everyone walked into the temporary warehouse with excitement, and their eyes were immediately attracted by the majestic J-10 fighter jet in front of them.
It stood there quietly, exuding a powerful and majestic aura, like a sleeping lion, waiting for the moment to wake up.
Golden lights flashed in everyone's eyes, and they were shocked by the power and domineering power of the J-10 fighter jet.
This aircraft is like a sharp sword, ready to be unsheathed at any time, showing unparalleled power.
“Is this our J-10 fighter jet?” a Yanguo military boss said in disbelief.
He had seen the design drawings of the J-10 fighter jet, but what he saw in front of him was a huge surprise.
The craftsmanship of this aircraft is exquisite, every detail is handled perfectly, and it is a hundred times more exquisite than the design drawings.
The J-10 fighter jet adopts a unique belly air intake method. Six reinforcing ribs are installed above the air inlet, which increases the stability and maneuverability of the aircraft.
Its close-coupled canard aerodynamic layout of double delta mid-monoplane and delta front wing gives the aircraft better controllability and flexibility in the air.
Length 14.57 meters
Wingspan 8.78 meters
The aircraft height is 5.3 meters
The maximum ceiling can reach 18,000 meters
The combat radius can reach 1,250 kilometers
The maximum range is 3200 kilometers
The maximum take-off weight is 19 tons
The maximum flight speed can reach Mach 2.2
Song Wen led everyone closer to the J-10 fighter jet while introducing its basic parameters and performance characteristics to everyone in detail.
He spoke passionately about the excellence of this fighter jet, allowing everyone present to have an in-depth understanding of its powerful capabilities.
Lin Chenran stood in the crowd, staring closely at the J-10 fighter jet, feeling an indescribable emotion in his heart.
In this parallel world, the J-10 fighter jet actually achieved mass production more than ten or even twenty years ahead of schedule.
It means that Yanguo has made a huge breakthrough in the field of military aviation and has advanced third-generation fighter jets decades ahead of schedule.
This technological leap will greatly enhance Yanguo's national defense strength and international status.
When everyone ended their visit to the static J-10 fighter jets, they all had bright smiles on their faces.
Especially those senior leaders from the Yanguo Air Force, they are very satisfied with the performance of the J-10 fighter jets.
Song Wen, who was standing aside, saw everyone's expressions, and the high-hanging stone in his heart finally slowly fell.
As long as the J-10 fighter jet can successfully pass the strict review by the Yanguo military, it can begin production off the production line and be equipped into the army.
After admiring the static display of the J-10 fighter jet, everyone began to look forward to its dynamic performance.
No matter how beautiful a fighter aircraft is statically, if it cannot show excellent performance in dynamic flight, then it still cannot be called a successful fighter aircraft.
Everyone can't wait to witness the heroic appearance of the J-10 fighter jet soaring in the sky.
Mr. Wei turned to Song Wen who was standing aside, and said with a serious and focused expression: "Song Wen, the next step is the dynamic display of the J-10 fighter jet. Are you ready?"
There was a sense of solemnity and expectation in his voice, as if the importance of this moment was self-evident.
Mr. Wei was not that nervous about the previous test flight of the Dragon Shadow fighter jet from the 077 Machinery Arsenal.
At this moment, he was shaking unconsciously.
Why?
Because this is Yan Guo's third-generation fighter in the clear sense.
The previous Dragon Shadow fighter can only be regarded as a second and a half generation fighter.
There is also the golden signboard of 077 Machinery Military Factory, which can make Wei Lao and other Yanguo military leaders feel at ease.
Because 077 Machinery Arsenal has such strength. Chengfei Military Industry Company is not a 077 mechanical military factory.
So...
The first flight of a fighter jet is filled with a lot of uncertainty.
Whether it’s a mechanical failure, electronic system problem, or other unforeseen circumstances, everything can change in an instant.
This makes test flight a high-risk task, requiring test pilots to have excellent technical capabilities and the psychological quality to calmly deal with crises.
The profession of test pilot is recognized as one of the high-risk professions.
Not only do they have to face various challenges in flight, but they also have to stay vigilant at all times to ensure the safety of themselves and the aircraft.
Once a mistake or accident occurs, the consequences are often catastrophic, and may even lead to aircraft crash and death.
At this moment, although Song Wen was a little uneasy, he tried hard to suppress his inner uneasiness and make his expression look firm and decisive.
He knew the importance of this test flight and the mission he shouldered.
Faced with Mr. Wei's inquiry, Song Wen replied without hesitation: "Mr. Wei, we have made sufficient preparations, please rest assured." His eyes were firm and full of confidence, making people feel I can’t help but look forward to this test flight.
After hearing Song Wen's answer, Mr. Wei slowly let go of his worries.
He knew that Song Wen was a rigorous and responsible person. Since he was so sure, the possibility of a successful test flight was even greater.
Lin Chenran on the side understood this feeling very well.
As a peer!
He knows very well the nervousness before a test flight.
He comforted: "Mr. Wei, don't worry, the J-10 fighter jet will definitely be able to complete its first flight. I am very confident in the J-10 fighter jet designed by Chief Engineer Song Wen."
His words revealed his trust in the J-10 fighter jet.
The J-10 fighter jet is equipped with the AL-31FN turbofan engine produced by their 077 Machinery Arsenal, and its power output is very powerful.
This engine uses advanced technology to provide powerful thrust, allowing the J-10 fighter jet to fly freely in the air.
As the saying goes in the aviation field: "As long as the thrust is strong, bricks can fly into the sky."
He believes that the J-10 fighter jet will be able to successfully complete its first flight.
Yes, the J-10 fighter jet is not just designed and developed by Chengdu Aircraft Military Industry Company.
In this research and development process, 077 Machinery Military Factory played an important role.
Especially the AL-31FN turbofan engine used by the J-10 fighter jet. This key power output device is provided by the 077 Machinery Military Factory.
In addition, many other important accessories are also carefully manufactured by the 077 Machinery Military Factory.
"Song Wen, since everything is ready, don't waste everyone's precious time and start the first test flight directly!" Mr. Wei made a decisive decision and instructed Song Wen to arrange the test flight of the J-10 fighter jet.
After hearing the order, Song Wen immediately conveyed the relevant instructions to the Chengdu Aircraft staff next to him, asking them to make preparations for the test flight as soon as possible.
While the staff of Chengdu Military Industry Company were preparing, Lin Chenran asked Mr. Wei on the side, if the performance of the J-10 fighter jet was very superior, how many J-10 fighter jets would the Yanguo military purchase.
Song Wen on the side was also very curious!
Amid everyone's expectations, Mr. Wei said straight to the point: "The first batch of fifty!"
Song Wen's eyes lit up at Mr. Wei's answer.
The purchase of fifty J-10 fighter jets is a good order.
……
Amid everyone’s expectant eyes, the J-10 fighter jet began its first flight!
