Changkong Fighter

Chapter 110 Military Fans Celebrate the New Year
A driver picked up his mobile phone and was about to take a picture, then looked at the traffic police and police who were blocking the road, and seeing that they did not stop him, he started taking pictures.

"Just ignore him?" asked the traffic police who stopped the road.

"Why should I care? It's not the same as before. The higher-ups said people can take pictures if they want, and what about displaying them appropriately?"

"You should have said it earlier."

After saying that, the traffic policeman took out his mobile phone and started taking pictures. With a heavy carrier-based aircraft in front of him, which man could withstand such a test?

The ground crew pulled out the fuel pipe after adding 30% of the fuel. A fighter jet with a full tank of fuel is very heavy. With 30% internal fuel, the fighter jet is much lighter, which greatly reduces the takeoff distance.

Liu Jun got out of the car, climbed onto the J15T via the boarding stairs, entered the cockpit and started the car with one click.

【System startup】

The instrument panel lit up, and Liu Jun looked at the data on it. After confirming that there was no problem, he and the ground crew cooperated with the routine takeoff inspection. All systems were normal. The ground crew went to the side and lay on the ground to observe the J15T's landing gear and bottom skin.

【no problem】

Liu Jun looked at the ground staff and made a gesture of "I understand".

The left and right engines started in turn, the WS-10HS engine emitted the unique turbofan whistle, and the vector nozzle spewed out a hot tail flame, entering preparations for takeoff.

The ground crew removed the wheel chocks and lowered the takeoff flaps. Liu Jun looked at the instrument again. The engine speed and output were normal, and the system was well integrated.

[Ready to take off!]

[Let's go! 】

As if to specifically leak the secret, the ground crew made a gesture that is only used on aircraft carriers.

Liu Jun pushed the throttle, the engine roared, released the landing gear brake, and pushed the throttle to the bottom.

Beep, beep, beep! Ding!
The sound of the throttle increasing sounded inside the helmet, and on the flight panel, the icon representing the throttle valve visualization was filled to the top.

The J15T, launched from a catapult, roared forward. Thanks to improvements such as high-lift design, lightweight modifications, and increased engine thrust, the wings cut through more and more air, providing greater lift through the downwash. The Flying Shark glided less than 170 meters before being lifted by the air.
Pulling the side stick, the nose of the J15T left the ground and flew towards the sky, getting higher and higher in altitude and faster and faster in speed.

The heavy fighter plane flew slowly over the heads of the crowd. They could clearly see the details of the landing gear retracted into the fuselage. The airflow caused by the retraction of the flaps messed up the crowd's hair, but no one felt angry. Instead, they cheered.

"Ouch! It's our plane!"

"Amazing!"

"So handsome!"

The breathing of the people around was accompanied by the roar of the engine, and their heads were soaring. Ordinary people usually don't have close contact with fighter jets and know very little about heavy aircraft. But when a heavy carrier-based aircraft weighing more than 30 tons and 22 meters long roared and took off in front of them, the sense of power and the display of industrial strength cannot be felt on TV or in videos, especially the official media's miniaturization!

The child stared at the flying fighter plane and said in a baby voice:
"Dad! I want to be a pilot when I grow up!"

"I want to be one too!"

"I want a plane! I want a plane!"

After the plane took off, the tankers and the convoy left one after another, and road traffic resumed. Then the aftermath had just begun. Videos of the J15T taking off and landing on the national highway appeared on various short video apps, WeChat Moments, Bilibili and other social platforms. What is strange is that the review turned a blind eye to this and allowed the video to ferment online.

On the top floor of the office building, Teacher Zhou stood by the window, watching the J15T go by. "Xiaoxi, these military fans are having a great New Year."

"Teacher Zhou, some of them are very professional." Xiaoxi said softly. She did some research and found that some civilian military fans are not much worse than professionals. This made her re-understand the group of military fans.

"People's eyes are sharp."

"Changkong calling the tower, prepare to enter"

Liu Jun looked at the offshore airport in the distance, and the helmet zoomed in on the airport as he looked. With the black and white 8K thermal imaging resolution, he could clearly see the staff walking around on the airport.

His destination was a naval seaplane airport on an island in Shandao City, so the J15T only added 30% of the fuel. This was also to take into account the redundancy of air conditions such as go-around and mechanical failure. Otherwise, 20% would be enough.

From the air, the airport sits on an isolated island, surrounded by azure waters. From afar, it resembles a giant emerald embedded in the boundless ocean. The airport's layout is rigorous and orderly, with a massive apron paved with sturdy asphalt, strong enough to handle the takeoff and landing of heavy carrier-based aircraft. Rows of neatly arranged hangars are nestled behind tall windbreaks.

[The tower calls the sky, the runway is clear, and landing is permitted.]

"Changkong, I understand."

The J15T performed a skilled pentagonal landing and slammed onto the runway. The wheels rubbed against the asphalt runway with a sizzling sound, leaving black friction marks on the runway.

[Changkong, please go to Hangar 101]

"receive."

Slow down, open the speed brakes and taxi on the runway. After the speed drops to a level where the brakes can be used, use the wheels to slow down, fold the wings, and follow the instructions to drive towards Hangar 101.

When he drove to the hangar, he saw several technical backbones of the young team waiting for him. They had arrived here in advance to await Liu Jun's arrival and make final fine-tuning to the aircraft.

The airport ground staff were somewhat puzzled as they watched the J15T slowly parked in the hangar. This aircraft seemed a little different from the J15T they knew, but they couldn't tell where the difference was.

Liu Jun climbed down the boarding stairs, and then saw several technical backbones climb onto the plane to connect to the onboard computer and collect flight data.

"Old Liu, this is none of your business. Go eat something. Let me tell you, the seafood here is really fresh. Then take a walk around the island. The scenery is pretty good!"

"it is good."

After Liu Jun changed his clothes in the locker room, he walked towards the airport cafeteria. As for the plane, the technicians would naturally take care of it, and he couldn't help there.

After debugging, it will be tested in space, and parameters will continue to be corrected and tested repeatedly until all known problems are resolved on the ground.

As soon as I entered the cafeteria, the aroma of garlic and seafood wafted over. As the saying goes, "live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the sea, eat by the sea." The seafood in this airport is also very fresh, and they are sampled and inspected every day, so there is no need to worry about any problems.

"It smells so good." Liu Jun looked at the roasted garlic oysters and smacked his lips.

"Hey, try my cooking." The chef who was grilling oysters enthusiastically picked up three for Liu Jun: "That's not enough, more!"

"Thank you."

Liu Jun took some more food, found a seat by the window, looked at the sea view outside the window, and started eating.

After dinner, Liu Jun strolled around the island to relax, but he didn't have long to relax. Once the J15T was debugged, he would have to carry out his mission.
