"Success!!"

"After holding on to thousands of degrees of heat for up to ten minutes, our vector engine has far surpassed other countries in terms of strength, right?"

"Haha, we finally have our own vector engine!"

"Regardless of whether the next experiment is successful or not, but only the materials are qualified, then there is only one step away from future success!"

"Chief Engineer Lin, you are really amazing!"

The expressions of everyone in the hangar were excited, and even some of them couldn't help but shed hot tears.

That's not an exaggeration.

For experimenters, the failures they have to face are far greater than the successes, and even many difficult scientific research projects, from the initial establishment to the dissolution many years later, have no results.

This is a very normal thing.

It was precisely because they were fully prepared for failure that everyone present did not think that the cooperation between the vector engine and the fighter could reach the point of one-time success.

So naturally, they didn't expect any breakthroughs or results in this first test.

But reality taught them a hard lesson, and let them see the sense of accomplishment brought by this vector engine made by Lin Mo.

If nothing else,

Even if the next tests are terminated now, they will be successful, and they will win.

After fully understanding the significance of the ten minutes just now to the aerospace field of Daxia, Liu Limin couldn't help but be excited and said, "Chief Engineer Lin, you really brought me a big surprise. ”

"To tell you the truth, before you set off to come to the First Military Factory in the imperial capital, there were still many leaders and senior cadres who didn't believe you, thinking that it was impossible for you to do the research and development of vector engines in such a short time."

"This is a slap in the face."

"Well, do you still have confidence in the next experiment? If you don't have faith, you can end the experiment, and today's results are completely enough. ”

Lin Mo has absolute confidence in the experiment, and he will definitely not start at this time.

He smiled and said, "Go on, everything that needs to be done has been done, and I have confidence in myself and the scientists and academicians present." ”

"After all, this is the fruit of everyone's labor!"

The rest of the academicians who were mainly responsible were also very excited.

Academician Li followed up and said, "Xiao Liu, you just put your heart in your stomach, this experiment will definitely open your eyes." ”

"Chief Engineer Lin, let's move on to the next experiment?"

Lin Mo nodded lightly under the gaze of everyone.

"Start the next experiment!" Academician Li's voice rang out in the empty hangar.

Immediately after,

The hangar door slowly opened, and a ray of early morning sunlight shone in.

Airplanes. buzzing

The hum of the engines sounded, and the two tractors drove into the hangar and stopped directly in front of the J-10 canard fighter.

The staff began to install the sliding locks, and Lin Mo and the others walked from the inside of the hangar to the side of the wide runway outside along the special passage.

It's sunny today and it's a nice day.

In the anticipatory eyes of everyone, everyone waited for about half an hour, and the tractor began to exert force, pulling the J-10 canard wing fighter with silver-gray paint out of the cabin and onto the runway.

After the plane stopped at the designated position, the tractor that completed the task left first, leaving only the fighter plane coated with a layer of golden light by the early morning sun.

Drip. Drip

The fighter's various systems began to operate, and a series of data was uploaded to the notebook in front of Lin Mo and them.

Because it was the first time to conduct a test flight, and what was in front of me was the first fighter aircraft equipped with a vector engine in Daxia, so everything had to be careful and careful.

After all, everyone has no experience in this area, and everyone is worried about whether there will be any failures that they don't expect.

Therefore, under various trade-offs, the first flight did not involve the test pilot, but transformed the canard wing fighter in front of him into a drone.

After all the self-tests of the plane were completed, a staff member came over with a tablet computer and said excitedly, "Chief Engineer Lin, the debugging work before take-off has been completed, and no faults have been found so far." ”

"You can start a test flight at any time."

On the screen of the tablet, there is a large ignition button, and if you press this switch, you can start the behemoth not far away.

Of course, this switch is only symbolic.

Even if it is a fighter plane that is made into a drone, the complexity and process of control are not something that ordinary people can master.

The real control of the canard fighters on the runway was the professional staff in the distant tower.

Lin Mo shook his head and said, "Since Liu Lao is here, it is better to let Liu Lao press this switch, after all, our project can be launched, and it is inseparable from him." ”

And he was telling the truth,

And Lin Mo knows who Liu Limin represents, so when he can give face, he will still try to give him some face.

Liu Limin waved his hand again and again and said, "That's not good, I just ran errands, but I don't have any actual credit." ”

"Comrade Lin Mo, if you have to let me press the take-off button, then you will really be ashamed of me."

"It's better for you to come, after all, you are the chief engineer of the vector engine."

Liu Limin clearly knows that there are definitely a lot of eyes staring at the military factory now, and after the experiment just now, Daxia has really benefited and benefited.

He will naturally have a light on his face, and it will help him a lot in his future.

After all, he is indeed the person in charge of Lin Mo all along, and many things that are connected with the top management are conveyed through him.

This is enough for Liu Limin, he doesn't want to be greedy for heaven and stop the research of vector engines on his head.

Academician Li said with a smile, "Xiao Liu is right, Chief Engineer Lin, you are welcome, today's ceremony should be yours, if you don't lead us all, maybe in another three or five years, our country may not be able to have its own vector engine." ”

"Chief Engineer Lin, let's go!"

Who will light the fire is a thing that doesn't seem too big, but it's very symbolic.

After more than half a month of contact, Academician Li recognized Lin Mo very much, and they understood that Lin Mo was still very young, and his future achievements would definitely be limitless.

If he can have more glory and resume in his grade, it will definitely be very helpful for his future development.

Of course, this is because they don't know what Lin Mo has done abroad, and if they knew, they wouldn't feel that this is an honor for Lin Mo.

"Okay, since everyone is so polite, I'm not welcome."

"Otherwise, it will be delayed."

Lin Mo didn't say anything more, took a deep breath, reached out and pressed the power button on the tablet.

Airplanes. buzzing

Almost at the same time as he pressed the switch, the engine of the J-10 canard wing fighter made a roaring sound again, and the whole plane was like a giant beast with its eyes open, giving people a very strong sense of oppression.

All eyes were on the belly and tail of the fighter.

Under their watchful eye, the engine vent in the tail began to slowly adjust its direction at a speed visible to the naked eye, and at the same time, the belly of the engine began to spew out engine flames.

The color of the flames gradually darkened, and the roar of the engines became louder and louder.

When the sound broke through a certain threshold, the fuselage of the fighter began to tremble slightly, and then began to rise into the air little by little.

This kind of lift-off is not usually when the aircraft takes off, first sprint on the runway for a period of time, wait for the speed to rise, and then use the support force of the air flow to let the aircraft gain upward force.

This fighter flight is more like the lifting and lowering method of a helicopter, which directly provides upward thrust on flat ground and controls the aircraft to lift off.

In the professional field, such a take-off method is called vertical take-off and landing, and it is also the best proof that it is equipped with a vector engine.

After all, a conventional engine can only provide forward force, which is fundamentally different from a vector engine.

The fighter plane was five meters above the ground, and no other sound could be heard on the huge runway except for the humming of the engine.

No one spoke, even Liu Limin, who didn't know much about aerospace, couldn't help but get nervous when he felt the nervousness of the academicians and researchers around him.

Being able to fly is not the key.

As long as it can provide enough power, even if it is a brick of twenty or thirty tons, it can take off and land vertically.

It doesn't require much skill, as long as the engine has enough horsepower.

The real difficulty of vector engines is how to ensure that the aircraft can provide thrust forward in a vertical way after take-off, and steer the aircraft to a higher place.

It's hard.

If the thrust is too large, then the fighter will pull each other because of the upward and forward thrust forces, which will lead to problems.

At the same time, the thrust should not be too small.

If the thrust is too small, then it is simply impossible to get rid of the downward thrust, and then there will be a situation where the fighter stalls.

A stall is a very serious thing.

If the fighter plane stalls at an altitude of 10,000 meters, the pilot and the plane may still have a chance of life, but if it stalls at an altitude of several hundred meters, or even less than 100 meters now, then there is no doubt that the plane will be destroyed and people will die.

There won't even be time for skydiving.

It is precisely because of these various tensions that the atmosphere at the scene is so tense.

soon

The computer screen shows that the J-10 canard fighter has reached a speed of 80 meters, which is already the standard altitude that can be changed to level flight normally.

But it was at this altitude that the plane gradually began to shake slightly, and there was a growing possibility of resonance.

Once the resonance occurs, then the next scene is also predictable, and it will inevitably be the end of the plane crash and death, and there is absolutely no second possibility.

"Quick, change to level fly!"

"Don't wait, right now!"

At the critical moment, Academician Liu's voice sounded in the loudspeaker of the tower command center.

The towers are basically ace pilots, and only at their level can they have the opportunity to serve as important positions as test pilots.

While one of them isn't needed to sit in the cockpit and control the plane today, their job is not easy.

The difficulty of controlling the fighter through the screen is definitely more difficult than sitting in the cabin yourself.

And more importantly, they controlled the vector engine, which was the first time in the world, and the more worried they were about the problem, the more nervous they became.

This is the first test flight of a vector engine in Daxia, and its importance is no less than the creation of a new type of aircraft.

After all, the engine is the heart of the fighter, although it is now equipped with a J-10 canard wing fighter, but after changing a heart, this has become another fighter.

"Whew"

"Don't hesitate, listen to Academician Liu's command, and immediately change the level and fly out."

"You have all remembered to me that this test flight is very important, and there must be no mistakes."

"The future development of the Air Force in Great Xia depends on your trembling!"

After receiving the instruction, the commander also simply told the captain and co-pilot the next flight plan.

The two of them are also experienced in a hundred battles, although they will be a little nervous, but after all, they have experienced countless dangerous moments, maybe the driving skills are not the best in the world, but the psychological quality must be very strong.

They began to quickly adjust the power ratio of the aircraft, increasing the power increase in the tail, and pulling the accelerator pedal deeply.

Airplanes. buzzing

The J-10 canard fighter let out a beast-like roar again, followed by a rapid afterburner at a low altitude of nearly 100 meters, and struck diagonally towards the straight sky.

The whole process was easier than expected.

When they saw that the fighter plane had gone up to the sky and gradually disappeared from view, many scientists and scholars at the scene were excited.

"Success, really success!!"

"Haha, I knew we could!"

"Chief Engineer Chen, thank you so much, thank you for bringing us such a beautiful experience!"

"Hooray!"

"Hahaha, now I can finally go home for a good year!"

The crowd began to cheer, they took off their hats, threw them into the air, waved their arms, shouted loudly, and vented the stress of this time with all kinds of excitement.

In just over a month, they went from scratch to truly create a vector engine.

For many people present, this kind of achievement is completely enough for them to blow for a lifetime!

Liu Limin grabbed Lin Mo's hand even more excitedly, and said with great gratitude, "Comrade Lin Mo. Thank you. Thank you."

"Thank you for your dedication to the country and the people!!"
