Chapter 548: The first flight of the FC31 Falcon was a complete success

Chapter 548: The first flight of the FC-31 Falcon was a complete success
More than a minute later.

The landing gear of this FC-31 Falcon has touched the solid ground.

As the parachute was pulled up, it became like a giant breast.

The plane slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

soon.

The aircraft's parachute successfully separated from the aircraft.

Jiang Chen drove the plane slowly onto the taxiway and onto the apron.

As the canopy was opened.

Jiang Chen immediately let out a long breath.

huh~~~
Cool!
It’s so cool.

His face flushed and his eyes were full of excitement.

This is obviously the 'aftereffect' of the adrenaline rush.

Yes.

Even now the plane has landed steadily on the tarmac.

Jiang Chen still hasn't entered the 'Sage Time'.

Instead, he remained in excitement and even madness.

He looked at the aircraft's display screen with loving eyes, and his hands were constantly stroking it.

It's like an infatuated man who caressed and licked the goddess for several years and finally succeeded in licking her.

It's not just him.

Everyone else on the tarmac was now in a state of ecstasy.

The corners of Cheng Ziang's mouth were already cracked behind his ears.

With a big grin and a silly smile, he rushed towards the parked FC-31 Falcon.

Several other designers even hugged each other and cried.

There were both crying and laughing surrounding this FC-31 Falcon.

Director Zhou Jianhua clenched his fists and his eyelids kept twitching.

Among all the people from the FC-31 project team present, only Chief Engineer Zhao acted calm.

There was a smile on his face.

But he seemed quite calm.

It has the grandeur of "the Taishan Mountain collapses in front of you but your expression remains unchanged".

Captain Qin looked at the FC-31 Falcon with envy and joy, feeling deeply moved.

Gong Yuanlei's evaluation of the FC-31 Falcon has reached a new level.

The Navy participated in the test flights of the first four FC-31 Falcon prototypes.

However, the Navy is not 31% satisfied with the performance of the FC- Falcon.

But today the fifth prototype made its first successful flight.

Moreover, in terms of super maneuverability alone, it has completely met the needs of the navy.

If subsequent test flights are also successful.

Gong Yuanlei secretly made up his mind that he would try every possible means to promote the Navy's participation in and procurement of the FC-31 Falcon project.

otherwise.

The J-15 Flying Shark alone is really unable to resist the threat of the enemy's F-35+F-18 Hornet+EA-18G Growler combination.

Yes.

For now.

The FC-31 Falcon may not be able to gain an overwhelming advantage over the enemy's F-35+F-18 Hornet+EA-18G Growler combination.

However, a carrier-based fighter unit composed purely of J-15 Flying Sharks will definitely be crushed by the combination of F-35+F-18 Hornet+EA-18G Growler.

This is why the Navy can be the last straw for the FC-31 Falcon project.

It’s not that the Navy is very optimistic about the FC-31 Falcon project.

This is the truth.

The Navy was not very optimistic about the FC-31 Falcon at first.

The Navy hopes that the J-20 Warplane, which has more mature technology and performance, will be deployed on board.

Unfortunately.

The J-20 Vily Dragon is a heavy aircraft.

It's too difficult to get on board.

Therefore, the Navy had to settle for the second best and turn its attention back to the FC-31 Falcon.

Fortunately, the FC-31 Falcon finally lived up to expectations.

Not only did the first flight of prototype No. 001 be completed in just over a year.

Moreover, five prototypes were built in just four or five years.

One prototype outperformed the other.

By the time of the fifth prototype, various parameters had already met the Navy's expectations.

But Gong Yuanlei knew.

It will take at least seven or eight years before the FC-31 Falcon is put into service on ships.

He also knew that both Chengfei and Shenfei had already started the research and development of new fighter jets, the so-called sixth-generation aircraft.

But that doesn’t mean the FC-31 Falcon is not important.

Because developing a new fighter, especially a cross-generation fighter, will take at least several decades.

The navy can't keep waiting for the rice to cook.

Even the FC-31 Falcon will take several years or even decades to be put on board.

That would also solve the navy's urgent needs.

"Old Zhao, congratulations. Now the fifth prototype has successfully completed its maiden flight. The FC-31 project will be completed soon." Captain Qin extended his right hand to Chief Engineer Zhao and said with a smile.

Chief Engineer Zhao, who was standing with his hands behind his back, was stunned for a moment.

Only then did he react.

"Hahaha~~~"

He first laughed heartily.

Then he shook Captain Qin's hand and said with emotion, "It's been five years, five whole years, and we finally see a glimmer of hope."

The FC-31 Falcon project was launched in 2009.

It’s been exactly five years now.

However, don’t underestimate the smooth progress of this project. The first flight was successfully completed just two or three years after the project was launched, and five prototypes were built in just five years.

However, the FC-31 Falcon is a project independently developed by Shenfei with its own funds.

So far, there has been little support from the military.

My grandma doesn't love me, and my uncle doesn't love me.

It is truly an emotional journey to have come this far.

"Now that we have seen the light, we are only one step away from victory." Captain Qin said with a smile, "So I would like to wish the project a complete success and hope that the FC-31 Falcon will be able to form combat effectiveness sooner. Our external environment is still too harsh."

Chief Engineer Zhao turned his attention back to the FC-31 Falcon not far away.

He sighed, "I also hope that it can be painted with the 'August 1st' logo as soon as possible. I have dedicated most of my life to it, and I also want to have grandchildren and enjoy the happiness of family life as soon as possible."

"Haha, it's too early for you to think about your life after retirement." Captain Qin said, pulling him and saying, "Come on, let's go over there and ask that kid how he feels."

"You little bastard."

"My eardrum was almost broken just now."
The ground staff put the boarding ladder back on the plane, then climbed onto the plane along the ladder and helped Jiang Chen take off his helmet and oxygen mask.

"Whoo~~~~"

Jiang Chen let out another long breath.

Jumped off the plane along the stairs.

But his feet had just landed on the ground.

Cheng Ziang punched him in the chest.

With a bright face, he said, "Good boy, you dare to play so wildly on your first flight. You are really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. You almost scared us to death."

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at him.

He said unhappily, "You only have so much courage. Don't you see that Chief Engineer Zhao and Director Zhou are still calm and composed, unlike you?"

"Hey you kid"

But Cheng Ziang hadn't finished speaking yet.

The roar of fighter jet engines could be heard again in the distance.

Everyone turned their heads and looked towards the sky in the distance.

Then I saw a J-15 Flying Shark carrier-based aircraft roaring towards the runway.

It was the J-15D electronic warfare aircraft that returned.

Almost in the blink of an eye.

This J-15D electronic warfare aircraft has already flown over the runway.

Before everyone could react.

The J-15D electronic warfare aircraft was seen dropping suddenly in altitude.
