June 10th, 2018!
Tianfu, Huangtian Ba Airport. The weather was clear and cloudless. It was the best time for a test flight.
A platform had been set up next to Runway 124 of Huangtian Ba Airport. Many big shots were coming to watch the test flight today, which could be said to have affected many people.
After all, once the Chengdu J-20's heart disease was resolved, it would greatly increase the military strength of the ancient country. Moreover, this also meant that the ancient country would no longer be restricted by heart disease.
Although the 20 Tianshan Turbofan was only a single turbofan engine, the core of this engine could be extended to a series of engines.
If the heart of an aircraft was an aero engine, then the core engine was the heart of the engine.
For example, the engines used by the US B-2, F-15, and F-16 were derived from the same core engine.
Among them, it was also extended to gas turbine, high bypass ratio engine, and so on. It could be seen how important the core of an engine was.
Therefore, the significance of this aero engine was extraordinary. It was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. It was no wonder that the higher-ups of the country attached so much importance to it.
At this moment, Qi Yin, Qi Haibo, Li Long, Qin Yuxin, and the others were all waiting on the platform, waiting for the arrival of the country's higher-ups.
When it was eight o'clock in the morning, a black dot emerged from the clouds. Immediately, someone shouted in surprise,"They're here, they're here!"
"This... Isn't this Air Force One? Could it be that someone from the Prime Minister's Office has arrived?" When they saw the plane clearly, someone asked in surprise.
(During sensitive times, you can only appear in the form of an empire. You dare not court death.)
A luxurious passenger plane appeared before everyone's eyes. It was none other than Air Force One from the ancient country. This was completely beyond their expectations. Previously, they had only received news that the deputy commander of the Air Force Command would be coming. They were completely unaware of this.
The Sky One was a modified version of a boeing 747. The huge plane landed directly on runway 126 and glided for more than a kilometer before stopping.
Everyone walked towards the reception area. A few minutes later, a group of people walked towards them.
Cheng Fei's chairman Qiao Haibo could not help but widen his eyes and said in shock,""Prime Minister Wen actually came personally!"
"What is it? The Prime Minister is here? He did not expect that today's test flight would actually alarm the Prime Minister!”
The arrival of Prime Minister Wen Haihong was completely out of everyone's expectations. Even Qi Yin's eyes flashed with a trace of surprise.
When Wen Haihong and the others were not far away, everyone hurried to greet them.
Qiao Haibo could not help but say somewhat excitedly,"Prime Minister, welcome. I didn't expect you to come in person!”
Wen Haihong smiled and said,""What's wrong? This is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. Can't I come?”
Qiao Haibo quickly shook his head and said," No, of course not. It's just that you didn't inform us before you came. We didn't treat you well!"”
"It's fine, I just came to take a look and see what effect our country's self-developed fourth-generation engine will have when combined with the J-20. Of course, I'm also here to see our hero!”Wen Haihong looked at Qi Yin.
Qi Yin stepped forward to Wen Haihong and said with a smile,"Uncle Wen, I don't deserve to be called a hero!”
"Haha!" Wen Haihong couldn't help but smile." I didn't expect you to have changed so much after not seeing you for a few years. It seems that you weren't lucky to develop it. Let's go. Let's not chat for now. We'll delay the test flight project!"”
After saying that, everyone went straight to the leader's platform.
At the end of the runway, a J-20 fighter jet painted in yellow was ready to go. The engine on its butt was completely different from the previous AL31 engine. It was the J-20 equipped with two Turbofan 20 engines.
"The test flight project begins!" Qiao Haibo said while holding a walkie-talkie.
"Yes, sir!"
In the cockpit of the J-20, the pilot received a notification from the control tower.
"Number 2004, runway wind speed level 3, permission to take off!”
"The first test subject is super short distance take-off!”
"Yes, sir!"
The pilot was already ready to take off. After receiving the order, he pressed the start button.
"Boom!"
The tail of the Turbofan 20 engine began to spew orange exhaust flames. As the throttle continued to increase, the roar of the engine became louder and louder, making a deafening roar.
After pushing the accelerator to the maximum, the pilot suddenly released the brake, and the J-20 flew out like an arrow.
The J-20's iconic canard wings were at a 20-degree angle, and the exhaust of the engine also changed direction.
After sliding for about 120 meters, the J-20 lifted its nose and left the runway, continuing to fly forward. (The shortest take-off distance of an F-22 is 140 meters)
"120 meters, too powerful, really too powerful!”Qiao Haibo muttered in disbelief when he saw the plane take off after flying past two white lines.
If it was the previous AL-31 engine, he would not even dare to think about it.
