Chapter 142: The Sole Purpose

In the cockpit of the An-1250, the captain manually pushed the throttle to the bottom, and the eight engines burst out with a total thrust of 264 tons, directly disrupting the sky over the entire airport.

The acceleration of the aircraft is faster than imagined, the current An-1250 is empty and less fuel, the thrust-to-weight ratio has reached 0.6, the early fighters are also at this level, and the large number of wheels also makes the average ground pressure not exaggerated, so the An-1250 is actually a super fat man who is as light as a swallow in action.

In the eyes of his superiors, the tall An-1250 surpassed the warships of more than 7,000 tons he had seen in terms of length and height, not to mention the exaggerated wingspan, at this moment, it was as if a warship was taxiing quickly on the runway, and it only took less than ten seconds to pass everyone.

When the An-1250 swept over the runway in front of them, it had accelerated to 200 kilometers per hour, and if it was a small car, it might have passed at once, but for the An-1250 with a length of 130 meters, it was hard to stay in their line of sight for a full three seconds, and for a moment it occupied the full field of vision they saw!

It looks like a train, and its speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour does not seem fast at all, and its huge size makes it seem that it does not even have a speed of 100 kilometers.

But the air currents of the An-1250 immediately told them that this was an illusion, and the huge nose of the plane slammed into a passage in the air, and the air from the surrounding area immediately rushed to the low-pressure area behind the tail of the plane after the plane passed, and people felt the hurricane blowing towards the runway from behind.

Tao Changhong almost deduced the huge and terrifying cross-sectional area of the An-1250 based on the wind, and he didn't even tidy up the messy coat that was blown by the wind, and just turned his head to look at the An-1250, which had reached a speed of 290 kilometers per hour and had begun to pull the nose.

Due to the extra effort saved under the flaps, the two test pilots sitting in the cockpit did not feel heavy at all, but simply pulled the rudder backwards, and the fly-by-wire flight control deflected the ailerons and lifted the six wheels in front of them easily.

In the eyes of the crowd behind the plane, the huge An-1250, which had barely changed in size, suddenly lifted upward, and at this time, the wings that were so wide that they felt like they could cover half of the airport were revealed, like a Haidongqing with wide wings.

It took less than four seconds for the An-1250 to completely leave the ground at a 22-degree climb angle, and the 440-ton fuselage took off into the air.

The wake from the eight 330KN engines looks very noticeable at this time, depicting the take-off route of the An-1250 like a footprint on the sand.

More than 10 kilometers away from the B-level base, a group of flight enthusiasts originally came to Hushan Airport to see the situation on the ground, and suddenly felt that their car window glass was vibrating slightly, and there seemed to be a loud noise outside.

They rolled down the windows and slowed down at the same time, and as flyers, they could hear the roar of a jet engine, and it had to be a subsonic passenger plane or transport plane.

The noise was getting louder and louder, indicating that the jet was flying in the direction they were, so they simply stopped and got out of the car to stay.

Because they all judged through their own experience that this was a rather small aircraft, probably a large transport plane like the Y-20, someone did not hesitate to take out their cameras and aim them at the sky in advance.

Then they saw a sight they will never forget:

The blue sky was covered with pale white clouds, evenly spread out in stripes, but at this time, an exaggerated flying object of astonishing size was forcibly breaking through the clouds, and its huge size seemed to have an aircraft carrier in the sky, which made people shudder.

The An-1250 is too big, too wide, and the turbulent airflow caused by it is too strong, and when it rises to an altitude of more than 800 meters and begins to touch the clouds, it is like a spatula passing over his girlfriend's leg covered with depilatory cream, and the area passed through with its huge fuselage is empty, and the blue sky is behind it.

The one holding the camera was the first to react, and directly opened the video to record the whole process of the An-1250 from its appearance to its disappearance in the clouds, during which the plane was too large and even felt that the camera's screen could not fit.

As the completely unfamiliar beast continued to climb high and disappear, the traces of its passage were still quite obvious, and a rectangular cavity appeared in the clouds that was at least 200 meters wide and several kilometers long!

After a while, several people who had just recovered from the shock hurriedly gathered at the camera and replayed the footage of the monster passing by, before they dared to believe that they had really seen such a large plane.

"This ...... Is it an 225? ”

"No, she has eight engines, a full eight! And even the An-225 is a lap smaller than her! ”

"Wait, do you see the number of her fuselage? It's from the Civil Aviation Administration, we can check it right away, there must be information on the website! ”

"Go get the computer out, go!"

……

The process of the first flight of the An-1250 is very simple, just fly around the base once, and then fly back.

However, due to the fact that its body is too large and the turning radius is also exaggerated, the actual situation in the end is that it basically sticks to the boundary of the airspace under the jurisdiction of Xinyuan, and it has been seen by countless people.

But even with such a large turning radius, it's still in people's view at all times and can be viewed effortlessly.

The superior looked at the half-circle flight with relief and emotion, and then looked at the area where several researchers from the aircraft design institute were located.

Their expressions were unified: confused and shocked.

Because according to their education system and work experience, how can such a big thing easily succeed!

The Ke'an 1250 had already completed a full lap of the flight, and immediately entered the landing route, aiming at the runway to start landing, completely indicating to them that the project had been successful.

The face of the big man of the space agency was also quite complicated, and he put his hand on Lin Ju's shoulder:

"Honestly, what month does Xinyuan 3 fly?"

"Around June 10th, the mission will start in July, and the two An-1250s will fly for at least a month before they can carry out the transportation mission, which is about the same time."

“…… So you built an 1250 for it? ”

Lin Ju: "Not only that, but also Xinyuan No. 2 A, the CBC configuration needs three core stages, the An-1250 can easily stuff one in the stomach, and two can be stuffed with a fairing on the back, and it will be transported over once, and the Il-76 will fly three times, how can the efficiency be so high." ”

The big guy sighed after hearing this, and turned to the An-1250, which had begun to reduce the altitude and prepare to land, with his hands behind his back, and his voice suddenly became very old:

"The Long March 10 will also be launched in July, and our plan is not like a private company that can be adjusted at will, even if it is fully mobilized, it will only be launched once every six months, which is already an unimaginable speed, but you are still faster."

Lin Ju: "But space is a race against time, in fact, it's just a different attitude, for Xinyuan, space is the only purpose of his existence, so he can do whatever it takes." ”

"Space is the only purpose of Xinyuan's existence?"

"Yes, or rather, the only purpose of my existence."

The others didn't notice that the last sentence was said with a slightly wry smile.
