Chapter 438

It's still the runway 1 where Yun 9 was tested before, but this time at the end of the runway is a prototype of a new fighter designed and manufactured by Chen Xin.

At this time, the plane is different from when Chen Xin saw it. Not only the avionics system and the magnetic rail gun of the nose have been installed, but also the whole plane has been painted.

At the moment, it quietly stops at the end of the airport runway. It looks like a silent ghost, fully integrated into the darkness. Only a little light from the navigation lights can confirm its existence.

The cockpit of this aircraft is completely different from the traditional transparent cockpit. The canopy is a metal outer layer connected with the avionics fairing of the nose. The interior is a display screen composed of several high-definition LCD screens, and the exterior high-definition cameras provide images for it.

The pilot in the cockpit is not used to looking at the display screen around him.

As an experienced pilot and a test pilot, there are a lot of airplanes flying by. The habit brought by the traditional transparent cockpit is hard to change for a while.

However, although not very used to, but the pilot quickly found the benefits of LCD.

If it is a traditional transparent cockpit, there is no light in the cockpit at night. Some of it is just a very weak luminous display on the instrument panel, so that you can't see the reading clearly.

What's more, the sight is basically dark. Most of the operations are either guided by night vision devices or electronic systems, which can't be confirmed by eyes.

This is a very technical test for pilots, because when you fly up, the top and bottom are black, it is easy to lose the judgment ability, leading to the aircraft lost.

But now, a large number of auxiliary displays on the LCD screen can not only help you judge the situation, but also bring intelligent high-definition display, which is much clearer than the pictures taken by naked eyes and night vision devices in the past.

Even if necessary, the whole picture can be switched to day mode, that is, night can be turned into day through artificial rendering.

Of course, this mode will take up a lot of onboard computer resources, and pilots will not turn it on unless necessary.

After checking the systems manually, the pilot sent a signal to the tower to start the test flight.

Although I have spent a lot of time to learn how to operate the new aircraft and how to use the new equipment on the aircraft, it is a new aircraft that is totally different from the previous one. The pilot is still a little nervous and sweaty.

"Mocking wind, this is the tower. It's clear when you run. You can take off." Just as the pilot nervously held the joystick and waited, the sound of the tower came from the headphones.

"Jeer at the wind, ready to take off!" The pilot took a deep breath, grasped the joystick and began to steer the plane forward.

The new aircraft was named mocking wind, named after the third son of the ninth son of Long Sheng, meaning that mocking wind was dangerous in his life.

According to Chen Xin's design, the three ion thrusters can flip the nozzle to allow the aircraft to obtain vertical lift and achieve vertical take-off and landing.

But for the first test flight, we all chose the more stable ski jump takeoff instead of the vertical takeoff.

With the pilot's operation, the plane began to slide forward, and the speed became faster and faster. The strong sense of pushing back even pressed the pilot on the seat.

But under the effect of the new anti-G suit, the pilot did not feel any pressure.

With the acceleration of the aircraft, as soon as the pilot pulls the nose, the aircraft will jump into the air very light, light is not like a 20 ton aircraft, but like a swallow.

"It's so beautiful!" Inside the tower, watching the plane fly smoothly, everyone clapped their hands.

Although we cheered in the same way in the run-9 test before, we still applauded for Chen Xin this time.

A new fighter can complete the process from design to flight test in such a short time. Chen Xin's "ability and level" has deeply convinced these people.

However, Chen Xin just shook his head modestly. He didn't get lost in these compliments. He turned to the commander in charge of air traffic control and asked, "did the two J20 take off?"

"Two J20 simulated enemy aircraft have taken off from Jincheng airport and are expected to arrive at the scheduled operational airspace in 30 minutes." The commander took a look at the display screen in front of him and replied to Chen Xin.

Chen Xin nodded and said to the commander, "let the jeer wind retract the reflection angle and test the effect of radar stealth."

"Mocking wind, this is the tower. I want you to put away your reflection angle and enter stealth mode." The commander repeated Chen Xin's instructions to the mocking pilot.

In order to test the performance of the new fighter, Chen Xinli rejected the public opinion and applied for two J20 to carry out simulated air combat exercises before the new fighter's flight test.

After some discussion, the military passed Chen Xin's application, transferred two j20s to him, and temporarily modified them to ensure that the plane could take off.However, in order to protect the aircraft, the three fighters did not fly high, but maintained the altitude below 8000 meters.

According to the preset, mocking wind will approach the airspace where the J20 is in stealth mode and try to break through the interception of the two j20s. This breakthrough of course includes the option of mocking wind "shooting down" the two j20s.

Although mocking wind, as a test aircraft, does not carry ammunition, and J20 does not carry live ammunition, as long as radar irradiation and locking are completed, it means that the aircraft has been shot down.

After all, in modern air combat, being locked in is basically the same as being unable to escape.

However, before the exercise started, there was a small problem on the side of mocking wind.

Because when the mocking wind's pilot retracted the reflection angle according to the command, the whole plane disappeared from all the radars.

This caused a little commotion in the tower. The commander switched different radar bands, but there was no trace of mocking wind. If the communication had not been maintained, people would have thought that the new fighter had crashed.

But the result is exciting, because if all our radars can't find the wind, it undoubtedly shows that the stealth performance of the wind is excellent.

"Academician Chen, is mocking wind so stealthy?" An air force officer who came to watch the exercise asked Chen Xin.

"I'm not surprised by the result of the special coating on the shape." Chen Xin could only smile a little at this.
