Chapter 147: Visiting "Sonic Speed"

Driving out of the dark blue Passat in the garage, Long Yun came to the door of Shangguan Ling's house in a leisurely manner.

drove Shangguan Ling, who was "far away" hundreds of meters away, into the car and sent her to Su Xue's house, seeing the eldest lady who was still yawning and walking into the elevator weakly, Long Yun still felt a little interested.

Well, since you can't go home, where are you going next?

Driving out of the community aimlessly, Long Yun unconsciously recalled the scene of the previous air battle; After fighting such a vivid air battle, Long Yun was really unsatisfied.

Even after returning to reality, his excitement did not calm down much; It's a pity that no one can say anything like this. The only person he can talk to now is Su Xue, and as a girl who is engaged in art, you can imagine how she will respond.

I have fought wonderful air battles, but I can't tell anyone, this feeling is really not good.

When it comes to air combat, Long Yun remembered that when he was in Moscow before, Liu Wei called him; This kid is now on the "Sonic" team, and is clamoring for him to be treated; Anyway, there was nothing to do today, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Liu Wei's number.

"Hey, hey! Brother Long, are you back? ”

"yes, how's it going, do you have time today?" Hearing Liu Wei's relaxed tone as always, Long Yun felt that his mentality was really good. No, it's probably because of this that I have the good luck to join the team, right?

"Let's go out for a meal when we have time, I'll treat you!"

"Then don't worry, Brother Long, if you are free today, come and have a look at our team!" Liu Wei's words were a little happy, "The 'Sonic Speed' side just bought a new fighter plane recently, aren't you curious?" ”

New aircraft? Long Yun thought to himself, now is the time when the IFT qualifiers are about to start, probably the team bought it for the competition.

"What model?"

"Hey, keep it secret! You'll know when you come. ”

……

Driving along the parallel road of the light rail line, Long Yun drove quite fast along the way.

Coming to the Beijing Aviation Training Base after a long absence, the scene in front of him is still the same, but Long Yun's mood has changed.

Outside the hangar of the "Sonic Speed" team, in the distance, Long Yun saw Liu Wei waving to him.

"Brother Long, are you here so soon today?"

Beckoning Long Yun to park the car, on the way to the hangar, the two of them chatted casually.

"Well, there is no traffic jam on the road. - I'm really curious, what kind of plane did your team buy? ”

"No, it's in the hangar! Hey. ”

After passing through a security gate, Liu Wei said hello to the team staff on duty, and walked into the huge team hangar with Long Yun through the side door.

As soon as he walked in and raised his eyes, Long Yun saw the new fighter plane that Liu Wei had told him.

The first time he saw this powerful fighter, Long Yun recognized the model in surprise.

- J-17!

"Hah! Brother Long, you can recognize it at a glance. But it's no wonder that this type of aircraft is common in the military. ”

Right in front of them, under the colorful sunlight projection through the hangar window, the J-17 with a sense of science and technology was lying quietly on the tarmac, with a soft glow of silver-gray dull coating, which made Long Yun suddenly have a strong desire to watch closely.

The J-17, the fourth-generation single-engine medium stealth fighter put into production by Chengdu Aviation Industry Corporation in the new century, is the last traditional configuration fighter launched by China before the era of assault aircraft. I have seen it many times in the media before, but it is the first time for Long Yun to really see the real thing.

Excitedly circling the plane, Long Yun verified the previous photos and images: the configuration of the J-17 is not much different from the J-10, and it can be seen that Cheng Fei inherited the design of his family's previous generation of fighters. However, unlike the J-10, which has a slender body and must be compared to reduce drag, the tail support of the fuselage of the J-17 has been significantly widened, and it has also been changed to a double vertical tail; The front canard wing has evolved into a flexible movable edge strip, and the overall linear shape not only meets the requirements of reducing drag, but also has good stealth characteristics.

If the previous J-10 and J-11 are fighters full of mechanical beauty, then the J-17 in front of you is the same as China's strongest fighter J-20, which is a classic of the electronic age, and it is full of technical beauty.

"Hey, Xiao Liu, bring your friends to see the plane?"

At this time, the deputy captain of "Sonic Speed" walked in, and when they saw Liu Wei, they said hello.

"Team Li is good! This is a friend who came here, and I took him outside to see it. Liu Wei and the deputy captain surnamed Li made a report, and then pulled Long Yun to stand farther away to watch.

The team's aircraft, although not used for combat, are not racing cars after all, and they are not only sophisticated but also expensive; So it's understandable that the team is watching him very closely, and it's completely understandable that people who are not in the team are not allowed to get close to him.

"Ah, it's okay Xiao Liu, as long as you don't touch it, feel free to take a look."

"Okay, thank you, team mate!" After greeting Team Deputy Li, Liu Wei looked back at the fighter plane in front of him again, with a complicated expression of envy in his eyes.

"Hey! It's still this J-17. ”

Isn't it? Long Yun paced to the tail of the fighter plane and looked at the single-engine tail spout of the fighter. The J-17 uses the same WS-15C engine as the J-20, but further slightly increases the thrust; With a thrust of 17.5 tons, it is almost the largest thrust engine in the Eastern Union.

The WS-15 is currently mainly equipped with the J-20 and J-17 models, and the Soviet and Russian MiG-35 can also be used, which is the largest turbofan engine in China's history. With such a power system as a support, coupled with its own successful design, the J-17 is not only equipped with a large number of PLA Air Force and naval aviation, but it is not completely outdated to this day, and is also exported to other countries in large quantities.

In Soviet Russia, the Aviation Industry Complex, which was subordinate to the Sukhoi Design Bureau, also mass-produced this type of fighter and supplied it to the Red Air Force under the official designation Su-37 - interestingly, the combination of light and heavy MiG-29 and Su-27 in Soviet times has now evolved into MiG-35 and Su-37, and the name of the design bureau is still the same, but the role played is exactly reversed.

For self-use, export and licensed production, the total output of the J-17 series of fighters has exceeded 4,000 units. Of course, this figure is not comparable with those fighter models with great production in history, but it is also close to the F-16, a major producer of fighter aircraft equipped by all countries.

"Of course! But it's also a good price, tsk," Liu Wei was also fascinated, in fact, it was the first time he saw the treasures hidden in the hangar up close today, "One is hundreds of millions, and ordinary teams may not be able to afford it." The backstage boss of 'Sonic Speed' can really burn money, and it seems that he is determined to win this year's IFT and Pacific Rim Confrontation. ”

"So, how are you now, what kind of aircraft are you flying?"

Liu Wei and Long Yun had said that they had joined the team before, so it was natural for him to ask.

Hearing Long Yun's question, Liu Wei just smiled narrowly, and then continued to pull him to look left and right, just ignoring his words. Long Yun felt a little confused, what happened to this kid today?

――Could it be that he has become the main force of the team and can fly the J-17 and am embarrassed to say!
