After a good test flight, the Flying Dragon prototype slid onto the runway, but the chief designer was gone.
On the observation platform, the Air Force chief asked his assistant to look for Jiang Chen with a dark face. This kid was reliable one moment and unreliable the next. He was like a pancake.
the assistant hurriedly reported.
"When Mr. Barker left just now, he told me that he would be delayed for a while. Let the fighter jet take off first, and he will come later.”
"A little delay?"
The Air Force chief didn't think too much about it. After all, a person who could operate a plane by himself must have a different brain than ordinary people.
She couldn't guess what he wanted to do.
"Alright, let the tower take off.”
Two minutes later, Jiang Chen finally received the take-off order from the control tower.
"Big-eyed rabbit, wind direction 15th hole, wind speed 4m/s, field pressure 15th hole 120, permission to take off.”
"Big-eyed rabbit, copy."
Hearing the tower's order, Jiang Chen stretched his neck. He put the control stick on the side of his right hand and started to push the throttle valve evenly and forcefully with his left hand.
Under Jiang Chen's control, the two engines behind the Flying Dragon prototype exploded with cylindrical orange flames, and the roar grew louder.
The 30-meter-long heavy fighter jet was like a wild horse that had lost its reins and began to accelerate on the take-off runway.
"Fifty knots…"
"One hundred knots…"
After reaching the critical point of theoretical take-off, Jiang Chen pulled the control stick lightly. The nose of the plane started to rise, and the front wheels left the ground.
The huge object that weighed dozens of tons rushed into the sky under the huge thrust.
Once again, he proved to the world what it meant to fly with a brick.
Watching the Flying Dragon prototype take off, the Research Institute and Air Force officers on the observation platform in the distance burst into discussion.
"I saw it clearly. 170 meters, the rear wheels are off the ground.”
"The data is out. It's 168 meters, and that's without using afterburner. If you use afterburner, it's a conservative estimate of 120 meters.”
Elder Xiong and the Air Force Chief, who were sitting in the front row, looked at each other silently when they heard the data.
According to the blueprint given to Jiang Chen by the Air Force, the fighter plane's minimum take-off distance was 200 meters.
At that time, Elder Xiong did not approve of this number because it was too difficult.
The shortest take-off distance of a fighter jet in active service in the Dragon Country was 320 meters.
The shortest take-off distance of the Eagle Country's main fighter jet, the Raptor, was 240 meters.
But the Flying Dragon Fighter designed by Jiang Chen had cut this number by half.
What was the concept of a 120-meter take-off? Even if the deck of an aircraft carrier was cut in half, it could fly into the sky.
Don't underestimate this one to two hundred meter gap. In a battle, if a supersonic weapon like a fighter jet took off half a second later, it might be able to gain the upper hand and lead to a crushing defeat.
But now it seemed that Jiang Chen had not only completed the flight distance required by the Air Force.
It even exceeded the needs of the Air Force.
After taking off, the Flying Dragon prototype was undergoing various maneuvers in the sky above the test field.
Turning left and right, diving, climbing, rolling, and even starting all kinds of difficult tactical maneuvers.
The excellent performance made the Research Institute and Air Force officers on the observation platform cheer.
The information control panel not far from the observatory was also reporting the data of the Flying Dragon prototype.
Maximum speed: 3.9 Mach, directly breaking the 3.2 Mach speed record set by the Mi-25.
The highest altitude was 38,000 meters, and it was also the first fighter jet that could climb to an altitude of 38,000 meters.
[Bomb load: 11.2 tons, surpassing the Dragon Country Type 16 fighter jet known as the sky truck.]
All kinds of insane data, coupled with the advanced avionic system and stealth performance, made the newly born Flying Dragon immediately become the overlord of the blue planet.
Elder Xiong's face flushed red with excitement when he heard the various data reports.
"Right now, countries around the world are still busy exploring the fifth-generation console. They haven't even set the standards for the sixth-generation console.”
Elder Xiong looked at the equally excited Air Force Chief.
"I think the standards for the sixth-generation console can be set by our Dragon Country.”
Setting the generation gap between fighter jets meant that they had absolute technical authority. Elder Xiong's words stunned the Air Force chief beside him.
"Elder Xiong, do you mean that the Flying Dragon Fighter designed by Jiang Chen can be called a sixth-generation fighter?”
Elder Xiong smiled and nodded.
"Yes, among the current fifth-generation console, I really can't find a match for Fei Long.”
The Air Force chief took off his hat and looked at the black spots of fighter jets flying past at high speed in the distant sky. His face was filled with emotion.
He didn't expect Jiang Chen to take four months to give him a blueprint.
He even gave him a King of the Sky.
"Chief…"
An officer saw that the Air Force chief was not in a good mood and hurriedly came over to help him. The Air Force chief waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, and then slowly sat down beside Elder Xiong.
At this moment, his eyes were red, as if he was not ready to accept this surprise.
He had been in the army for decades, and he had witnessed the history of this great country in the sky of his motherland.
Someone once said that the earliest air force of the Dragon Country was a few anti-aircraft guns with bamboo poles.
Some people had seen the Dragon Country pilots who had been training for less than 50 hours in the MiG corridor. They were piloting the seized fighter jets made by all countries and fighting with the Eagle Country in the air.
Someone called out, 81-192, runway cleared, please return.
The Dragon Country's Air Force has been suppressed for too many years. Even though we have worked tirelessly to become a world-class Air Force, we still don't have much chance of winning against the Eagle Country, who is eyeing us covetously on the other side of the ocean.
Now, with Jiang Chen's appearance and the flying dragon's rise, the world's first sixth-generation mecha had appeared.
The Air Force chief looked up at the sky above his head and looked up at the ancestors who had fought for the Dragon Country's Air Force for their entire lives.
As the roar of the Flying Dragon mech reached his ears, the Air Force chief with tears in his eyes whispered quietly.
"Everyone, listen to the dragon's roar."
