Chapter 1,173 Is H-20 going to make its first flight?(1/2)

The 003 aircraft carrier has finally entered service. It was still a product of the shipyard during the sea trial stage, but now it belongs to the navy!

Everyone's eyes were fixed on this warship, and their hearts were filled with excitement.

This is the only super aircraft carrier in the world that can rival the American aircraft carrier!

Its full load displacement reaches 100,000 tons, and it can normally carry more than 80 carrier-based aircraft, and can carry up to hundreds of aircraft during wartime!

It uses nuclear power and has endless endurance!

Its equipment is more advanced, the entire ship has integrated electricity, electric propulsion, and the shields on the ship island make it look taller.

This is the most advanced aircraft carrier in the world!

"Please rest!"

"Take a break!"

Whether it was on the deck or on the shore, everyone responded in unison.

"Comrades!" Wu Shengli began to speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, there were all movements in unison.

"Please take a moment."

This time everyone took a break again, and Wu Shengli continued to speak.

"Foreign countries say it is a century-old navy. Our eastern navy does not need a century to develop and grow and can complete all the tasks assigned to us by the motherland! It depends on the blood and dedication of our soldiers and the efforts of our relevant domestic enterprises.

It depends on every people who loves the motherland! We are the People’s Navy, and our mission is to protect our people!”

The sea breeze blew, the flags rustled, and the undulating mountains also carried the echo of Wu Shengli's speech.

This is a historic moment, the Eastern Navy finally ushered in a three-carrier formation!

Qin Tao is also very excited. All this is due to his own efforts!

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly there was a chorus of shouts from below.

"Use me in the first battle, and you will win if you use me!"

The shouts shook the sky and resounded throughout the sky.

The ceremony finally ended, and the sailors began to disembark from the aircraft carrier, while Wu Shengli happily walked onto the aircraft carrier with others.

Nikolay followed Qin Tao and boarded the aircraft carrier. Looking at the marks of the carrier-based aircraft wheels on the deck, he knew that although the aircraft carrier had just entered service, it actually already had combat effectiveness. This was probably already underway.

Hundreds of carrier-based aircraft have taken off and landed.

Standing on the large deck, he couldn't help but feel his own insignificance. Nikolai looked at the ship island again. This small ship island was probably only one-third the size of the Kuznetsov.

"Everyone, do we want to go to the ship island and have a look?" Nicholas asked.

Wu Shengli smiled: "If there is anything interesting in the ship island, we can experience it on the deck. Let's go, then we will go to the mess hall. The soldiers have just returned. There is a big meal in the mess hall. There is enough food and wine. Let's drink

A few drinks!”

Nicholas looked at the ship island again, knowing that Wu Shengli didn't want him to see it. The ship island must be very advanced!

Nicholas sighed and walked down with everyone.

Qin Tao felt funny in his heart, you didn’t want Nicholas to see it. When I applied, you could just refuse. Why agree? After agreeing, you don’t want Nicholas to see too many things, and you are trapped in a cocoon, right?

The navy leaders were definitely not impressed either. They originally planned to watch for a while, but they couldn't go to the ship island without Nikolai, so they had no choice but to come down together.

At this moment, the phone suddenly vibrated, and Qin Tao took it out. Those who could send him messages must be the people closest to him.

Sure enough, when I picked up the phone, I saw that it was Mr. Lin, and there was only one sentence in it: The baby is about to be born! Will it come?

If it were an outsider who saw this news, he would definitely not know what it was talking about, but Qin Tao guessed it right away. Mr. Lin was saying that the H-20 was about to fly for the first time!

Mr. Lin retired a long time ago, but he always wanted to continue to contribute to the country. Later, when Qin Tao proposed this advanced stealth bomber project, Mr. Lin personally took charge of it. After that, Mr. Lin rarely showed up.

, just like an old man after retirement, but in fact, he has been keeping a close eye on national defense construction and doing what he likes to do the most.

Looking at the aircraft carrier at his feet, Qin Tao knew that the navy's equipment had been developed to its extreme, and the air force's equipment had to make up for its shortcomings!

The Air Force's transformation from homeland air defense to offense and defense requires a large number of advanced weapons and equipment. In the field of fighter jets, there are already advanced weapons that can reach world-class levels. In the field of bombers, although there are already H-6Ks,

, but it is just catching up with other countries, it is not advanced enough, and the bombers do not have stealth capabilities, so they cannot become the king of darkness!

Fighters can also drop bombs, but they are different from bombers.

Fighters are tactical-level weapons. They can only carry two bombs at a time. The weight of one or two tons is already outrageous. But what about bombers? One can carry dozens of tons of ammunition! Fighters are used to deal with certain

Tactical targets, such as enemy headquarters, power stations, etc., bombers are used to deal with strategic targets, such as destroying the enemy's entire base or even an entire city if necessary.

Without strategic bombers, it will never be able to strengthen its waist. Without stealth strategic bombers, it will never be able to become a powerful existence and make its opponents fearful.

In this world, the strongest one is still the United States. After all, they have the B2 bomber. When this kind of aircraft appeared, everyone was shocked. This kind of aircraft actually has a flying wing layout. This kind of aircraft actually has no vertical tail.

This kind of aircraft has no edges and corners and has a smoother appearance!

The Americans also rely on the B2 to show off their power. Wherever there is a conflict or a war, this bomber will inevitably fly at the front and play the role of kicking in the door. Now, our own side also has a similar bomber!

Qin Tao felt excited. He put his phone back in his pocket, and then looked at Nicholas who was confused.

"Nicholas, something happened to the group and I need to go back."

"Well, go about your business." Nikolai said: "You have been with me for a long time. It's time for me to go to the Northern Research Institute, join them, and finalize the project to introduce the J-15."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wu Shengli looked at Qin Tao with doubts in his eyes: Where are you going?

However, he was embarrassed to ask in front of Nicholas, so he could only watch Qin Tao leave. Xu Zhengyang drove directly across the cross-sea bridge to Mingzhou. Qin Tao got on a special plane and went straight to the specialized production

Factory 172 of bombers.

This is not the first time Qin Tao has come to Factory 172. He even saw the H-20 last time. He just put it on the Iron Bird test bed to test the flight control. Calculating the time, this preparation work is really sufficient.

It's time for the first flight.

However, unlike the first flight of other aircraft, this first flight took place at night.

The fighter jets that the Mingzhou Group was tinkering with at the beginning were market-oriented from the beginning, and they wanted to brag about their progress, so they were always very high-profile and promoted with great fanfare. When it came to the J-20, they were much more low-key, but they were put on aircraft carriers and carried on the deck.

, sooner or later it will be seen by others, there is nothing we can do about it.

As for the H-20, this kind of aircraft is different. It is a weapon of the country and has the highest level of confidentiality. In order not to be discovered by the outside world, the test flights must be done at night. Just like the American F117, this kind of aircraft has been in service for many years.

It was discovered by the outside world. As for B2, the Yankees also planned to repeat this secret method, but who would have thought that the secret would be leaked from the beginning, so they could only make it public in a high-profile way.

Boom Twenty will remain top secret!

When Qin Tao arrived at Factory 172, night had already fallen, and in the large hangar, the work of the first flight was also being carried out in an orderly manner.

"Mr. Lin, I'm really flattered that you even called me here for such a confidential project." Qin Tao looked around and saw that only a few Air Force leaders came. Many people within the Air Force didn't know that such a high level of confidentiality was required.

It’s not easy to call yourself up.

Mr. Lin smiled: "You have made great contributions to Hong Twenty's success. Of course you can come. However, due to the high level of confidentiality, I cannot send you a message a few days in advance. You

If it was inconvenient, I might have missed it.”

"Yes, I was attending the commissioning ceremony of the 003 aircraft carrier. When I heard about it, I came over immediately and didn't even eat the celebration banquet." Qin Tao said.

"The Navy's 003 aircraft carrier?" Mr. Lin asked, "Is it nuclear powered?"

"Yes."

"The Navy has replaced shotguns with cannons over the years. All these good things belong to them. However, our air force is also getting faster. We will also equip a large number of strategic bombers like this in the future." Mr. Lin said: "What's so good about aircraft carriers? Slow

Damn it, wherever our bombers are good, we can fly to a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers within a day or two."

The advantage of an aircraft carrier is that it can carry a large number of aircraft and is a powerful weapon of war. The disadvantage is that it is slow. Even if it is flying at 30 knots, it is still a slow snail in the eyes of the aircraft. Even if the bomber is subsonic,

Much faster than that.

Yes, most bombers are subsonic. Even supersonic bombers with variable swept wings can only fly supersonic penetration during the final attack, because to go supersonic, you have to turn on afterburner.

Fuel will be consumed at an alarming rate.

In the era of stealth bombers, supersonic speeds are even more difficult. The flying wing layout has extremely high resistance, and there is no possibility of crossing the sound barrier. This can be regarded as having the best of both worlds.

Qin Tao looked at the H-20. Every time he saw it, he would be shocked in a new way. This is our most advanced bomber, bigger than the B2!

The B2 can only carry twenty tons of bombs at a time, while our bombers can carry forty-five tons. One bomb is equivalent to two of the other bombs!

"Who is going to fly for the first time?" Qin Tao looked at the busy crowd and seemed not to notice the test pilot.

"Lu Yong and Wen Ping." Mr. Lin said: "In order to adapt to the future test flight work, the two of them started to reverse their schedules a month ago. They sleep during the day and move around at night. At this time, they should have just woken up.

Have breakfast...no, have dinner."

This has never happened before. In the past, new fighter planes were tested during the day. After all, the field of view is the best during the day. Once an accident occurs, it is easy to make an emergency landing and search and rescue. However, now, it appears

exception.

On the one hand, it is because there are more and more reconnaissance satellites overhead. Not to mention the interval of an hour, even half an hour, there will be satellites flying over, and there is no window for test flights. On the other hand, it is also

Because of technological progress.

The mission of the H-20 is to act as a ghost at night. When it reaches the target, it will definitely be at night and will never operate during the day. This means that future training will have to be conducted at night, and the test flight work will simply

So it was moved to night time.

A very crazy scene will appear in the future: once you enter the H-20 combat unit, you will have to live day and night upside down. For humans who are accustomed to working at sunrise and resting at sundown, it is still difficult in the short term.
