Chapter Seventy-Two: What About Cheating

The flight maneuvers are prescribed, starting with a sprint run and take-off, followed by an Inmelmann reversal followed by a climb, followed by a dive and a high-speed pass, two high-G low-altitude rolls, then a low-speed pass, and finally a landing.

It takes about half an hour to complete all these actions, and during the whole flight, as a test pilot of McDonnell Douglas, Brown flew quite beautifully, especially the beautiful 7G 360-degree circle, as a pilot, the king of BS country, of course, knew the difficulty of this action, he almost stood up and waved to the sky.

At this time, the pilot Brown was pressed into the chair, unable to move at all, and could not see the situation on the ground, but this action of the king of BS country was seen by Moore and happy in his heart.

Relying on these actions, he finally conquered the king of the BS country, and then look at the slow performance of the Tomcat fighter in a while, will the king of the BS country choose the kind of fighter that looks beautiful, but in fact the performance is a generation behind?

Definitely not.

After passing through the field at low speed, the F-15 fighter aimed at the runway in a chic attitude, the tail speed brake was propped up, the wheels touched the ground, and after sliding for a thousand meters, it finally stopped.

"Your Majesty, how maneuverable are our fighters?" Moore asked with a smile.

"Yes, it's just an eye-opener for me, especially the 7G 360-degree hovering, it's so beautiful, our previous fighters can't fly out at all, if they are in actual air combat, they can get rid of the enemy's tail bite, and then turn around and chase the opponent."

Any action has real combat significance, and the meaning of continuous circling is that whoever turns fast can go behind the enemy's ass, and it is risky for any aircraft to grapple with the F-15.

"Now, it's the F-14's turn." Moore said, "Let's look at Grumman's cats. ”

After saying that, he defiantly looked at the Grumman and the representatives of the Navy who were present, hoping to see the uneasiness on their faces, but, seeing nothing.

Hmph, let's go on, I'm going to see how long you can fit, is the variable sweep wing beautiful? Without the right engine, everything is in vain.

In the midst of everyone's attention, the Tomcat fighter slowly slid towards the runway, its tail burst into flames, its wings had been extended, and from this angle, when the sun shone on the fighter, it showed a unique beauty.

The corners of Moore's mouth showed a sneer, Hmph, you guys are flying.

The flames in the tail of the Tomcat turned a blazing orange, and at the same time, the roar of the engine was heard.

I saw that this fighter plane, like an arrow off the string, sprinted towards the front of the runway, without the slightest slowness, and suddenly, the expression on Moore's face froze.

No, it's not like it should be at all, full of fuel, the Tomcat fighter has a thrust-to-weight ratio of only a pitiful 0.7, how can it slide so fast?

Just in his suspicions, the Tomcat fighter had already pulled up, and it was also only using a runway of more than two hundred meters, which was the advantage of the variable sweep wing.

When the wing is deployed, it has excellent take-off and landing performance, which is incomparable to fixed-wing aircraft, and it is the advantage that the variable sweep wing brings out of the mother's womb.

Then, in everyone's eyes, the plane also raised its head and took off at a high angle of attack.

"No, it's not scientific, it's impossible!" Moore's voice was very loud, and when he finished speaking, Kissinger on the side interrupted him: "Mr. Moore, please don't disturb His Majesty the King to watch the air show, from now on, you can shut up." ”

Don't look like this all the time, be rude, look at the people from Grumman, when the F-15 is performing, they don't say a word.

So, Moore swallowed the latter words into his stomach, he wanted to say that he must have cheated, but how did they cheat?

Nobody knows.

At this time, Nathan, who was operating the fighter to climb in the plane, pulled back the muscles on his face due to overload, revealing a very unphotogenic expression.

He was laughing.

The McDonnell Douglas guy was smart enough to know that he wanted to cheat on fuel, so he pulled up a trick to get both sides to fill up and take off.

Do you think you have no countermeasures like this? Of course not!

Just as the F-15 slid down the runway, Nathan got on board and ignited the two TF30 engines in the tail.

The fuel is full, but it doesn't mean that it can't be used right away, right?

As a result, these two engines burned on the ground for more than half an hour, and even when the F-15 flew to perform, Nathan quickly turned on the afterburner switch, allowing the fuel to flow into the engine and accelerate the combustion!

By the time his plane taxied onto the runway, there were only 2,500 pounds of fuel left, 15 percent of normal fuel!

In other words, the fuel that has just been added is consumed, especially after the afterburner is turned on, the fuel is consumed at an alarming rate.

Now, with the significant reduction in the fuel load in the aircraft, the thrust-to-weight ratio of the aircraft has finally increased, reaching the same level as the fully fueled F-15.

Yes, it's cheating, so what? Then, let's see how well you perform.

The Tomcat fighter took off at a high angle of attack, and this action ushered in a loud applause from the king of the BS country: "Beautiful! ”

This is just the beginning.

One action after another, dazzling, if Brown is performing a set of martial arts, it is a fist embroidered legs, and Nathan's performance is a real real kung fu, every action is quite spicy and sharp, as if he is chasing the enemy and fighting with the enemy.

Such an action exudes a murderous aura.

More wonderful than the F-15's.

Not only the king of BS country, but also General Toufanian and others also looked at the sky with blazing eyes, even if they were not experts, they could see that the performance of this fighter was obviously more exciting.

If it was all full of fuel, the Tomcat would be dragged down by the backward engine, resulting in all kinds of actions not being able to do well, which is exactly what Moore wanted to see, but unfortunately he was destined to be disappointed.

Now, when the drop in fuel load allows the Tomcat's power to manifest itself, the variable sweep wing comes into play. In this case, it can completely suppress any kind of fighter, and it is definitely an invincible existence in this era!
