It is still the No. 1 runway of the previous test Yun 9, but this time the
prototype of the new fighter designed and manufactured by Chen Xin is parked
at the end of the runway.
At this time, the aircraft is different from when Chen Xin saw it. Not only
has the avionics system and the nose rail gun been installed, the entire
aircraft has also been painted.
Stopping quietly at the end of the airport runway at this moment, it looked
like a silent ghost, completely blended into the darkness, only the light from
the flying lights made it possible to confirm its existence.
The cockpit of this aircraft is completely different from the traditional
transparent cockpit. The canopy is a metal outer layer connected to the
avionics fairing of the nose, and the inside is a display screen composed of
several high-definition LCD screens. Several high-definition cameras provide
images for it.
The pilot sitting in the cockpit looked at the surrounding display screens,
quite a bit uncomfortable.
As an experienced pilot and a test pilot at the same time, he has flown a lot
of aircraft. The habit brought by the traditional transparent cockpit is
difficult to change for a while.
Although not quite used to it, the pilot quickly discovered the benefits of
the LCD screen.
If it is a traditional transparent cockpit, there is no bright light in the
cockpit in the night flight state, and some are just very faint luminous
displays on the instrument panel, so that you will not lose sight of the
readings.
Moreover, the sight is basically in darkness, and most of the operations are
guided by either night vision goggles or electronic systems, which cannot be
confirmed with the eyes.
This is a very technical test for pilots, because when you fly, the upper and
lower sides are black, it is easy to lose the ability to judge and cause the
plane to get lost.
But now, a large number of auxiliary displays on the LCD screen can not only
help you judge the situation, but also come with a smart high-definition
display, which is much clearer than the previous visual judgment of the
situation and the pictures taken by night vision devices.
Even if necessary, the entire screen can be switched to day mode, that is, the
night is turned into day by manual rendering.
Of course, this mode will consume a lot of onboard computer resources, and the
pilot will not turn it on unless it is necessary.
After manually checking the various systems, after confirming that there was
no problem, the pilot sent a signal to the tower to prepare for this test
flight.
Although I have spent a lot of time learning how to operate this new aircraft
and how to use the new equipment on the aircraft, after all, it is a new
aircraft completely different from the previous aircraft, and the pilots are
still a little bit small. Nervous, sweaty palms.
"Laughing at the wind, this is the tower. I ran to the clear air and ready to
take off." Just as the pilot was holding the joystick a little nervously while
waiting, the sound of the tower came from the headset.
"The ridicule is received, ready to take off!" The pilot took a deep breath,
held the joystick, and began to steer the plane forward.
The new aircraft was named Liaofeng, named after the third son of the nine
sons of Longsheng, which means Liaofeng's life is dangerous.
According to Chen Xin's design, all three ion thrusters can allow the aircraft
to obtain vertical lift by flipping the nozzles to achieve vertical take-off
and landing.
But for the first test flight, everyone unanimously chose a more secure ski-
jump take-off instead of a vertical take-off.
The aircraft began to taxi forward with the pilot's operation, and the speed
became faster and faster, and the strong push back even pressed the pilot on
the seat.
But under the action of the new anti-G suit, the pilot did not feel any
pressure.
With the acceleration of the plane, the pilot pulled the nose, and the plane
jumped into the air very lightly. The lightness did not look like an airplane
weighing more than 20 tons, but like a flying swallow.
"It's so beautiful!" In the tower, everyone applauded as they watched the
plane fly smoothly.
Although everyone cheered in the same way during the Yun 9 test before, this
time everyone still gave Chen Xin applause.
A new fighter can complete the process from design to test flight in such a
short period of time. Chen Xin's "ability and level" has deeply impressed
these people.
However, Chen Xin just shook his head modestly. He did not get lost in these
compliments. He turned to the commander in charge of air traffic control and
asked, "Have the two competing J20s taken off?"
"Two J20s that simulate enemy aircraft have already taken off from Jincheng's
airport and are expected to arrive in the scheduled combat airspace in 30
minutes." The commander glanced at the display in front of him and replied to
Chen Xin.
Chen Xin nodded and said to the commander: "Let the mocking wind reduce the
reflection angle and test the effect of radar invisibility."
"Xiaofeng, this is the tower. I order you to close the reflection angle and
enter the stealth mode." The commander repeated Chen Xin's instructions to the
Xiaofeng pilot.
In order to test the performance of the new fighter, Chen Xinli rejected all
the public opinions and applied for two J20s to conduct simulated air combat
exercises on the new fighter before the test flight. UU reading www.uukanshu.

After some discussions, the military still approved Chen Xin's application,
transferred two J20s to him, and made temporary modifications to ensure that
the aircraft could take off.
However, in order to protect the aircraft, the three fighters did not fly
high, but maintained the altitude below 8,000 meters.
According to the preset setting, Laughing Wind will approach the airspace
where J20 is located in a stealth mode and try to break through the
interception of two J20s. This breakthrough of course includes the option of
Laughing "shooting down" two J20s.
Although the mocking wind did not carry ammunition as a test aircraft, and the
J20 did not carry live ammunition, as an exercise, as long as the radar
irradiation and locking were completed, it meant that the aircraft had been
shot down.
After all, in modern air combat, being locked is basically equivalent to being
unable to escape.
However, the exercise hasn't started yet, and there is a small problem with
Laughing Wind.
Because when the mocking pilot put the angle of reflection in accordance with
the instructions, the entire plane disappeared from all radars.
This caused a slight commotion in the tower. The commander switched to
different radar bands, but did not find a trace of the ridicule. If the
communication had not been maintained, it would almost make people think that
this new fighter had crashed.
But this result is exciting, because if all of one's own radars can't find
Mock Wind, this undoubtedly shows that Mock Wind's stealth performance is
quite excellent.
Under the recommendation, [\Mic\Mic\Reading\app\\] is really good, it is
worth installing one for book friends, and both Android and iPhone support!
"Academician Chen, the stealth performance of mocking wind is so strong?" an
air force officer who came to watch the exercise asked Chen Xin.
"I am not surprised by the appearance of the special coating." Chen Xin could
only smile inexplicably.
