#351 - Chapter 351 Marshal?! Extreme test flight! Named J-22, codenamed Weilong!
Chen Hao handed the commendation order to General Wang: "I'm going for the test flight — Lei Qiang, follow me!"
"Wait a minute…" General Wang said anxiously.
"Read it first before you speak."
"…"
General Wang opened the commendation order.
The next moment.
His face turned ashen, and he hurriedly pulled out his phone: "I need to call the old man, I absolutely can't let you test fly!"
"General, should we control General Chen?" the guard asked in a low voice.
As General Wang's guard, he was bound to come into contact with some top secrets, and he knew that Chen Hao was very important.
He would rather control Chen Hao.
Than let him take risks!
"Control my ass!"
General Wang was half dead with anger: "His rank is higher than mine!"
"Old Wang, what… what are you saying?!"
General Wang handed the commendation order to that general.
There were a few too many people around, and some things shouldn't be publicized, but Chen Hao had already revealed it in order to test fly himself, okay?
Besides.
This person was of equal rank to General Wang and was one of the few who had long known Chen Hao's true identity.
He took the commendation order.
The next moment.
His eyeballs almost popped out!
Five stars!
Grand Marshal!
How many years has this military rank disappeared?
What does it mean?
Before today, there really weren't many people above Chen Hao, but there were still some, and those of equal rank to him… there were still twenty or thirty people.
Now!
There are very few above him!
Those of equal rank…
Can be counted on one's fingers!
…
Chen Hao entered the cockpit.
The J-20C is a two-seater fighter jet.
Lei Qiang didn't go up, looking at General Wang for help, not knowing what to do.
Whose orders should he follow?
"Or… I'll kowtow to you? Will you come down?!" General Wang looked up, his tone pleading.
"If Lei Qiang doesn't come up, I'll fly alone," Chen Hao pouted.
"Don't!"
General Wang was shocked and ordered Lei Qiang: "Get up there! Quick!"
The Grand Marshal wouldn't listen to reason.
He had no choice!
The key.
Was that he didn't dare to force him now.
Buzz…
The fighter jet started!
Taxiing out of the hangar, General Wang stared at it intently the whole time, and he, who never believed in superstitions, silently prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in the sky — please don't let anything happen!
Suddenly!
He came back to his senses and went straight to the control tower: "Quick! Go to the control tower to be able to communicate!"
The fighter jet slowly entered the runway.
Taxiing!
Accelerating!
A bright blue Mach ring sprayed from the tail!
"Ground control tower, communication is normal!"
Chen Hao, wearing a flight suit, skillfully started the communication equipment: "Taxiing distance 100 meters… Lei Qiang, record!"
"150 meters!"
"Preparing for takeoff!"
Fuck!
General Wang, who ran to the control tower panting, was almost scared to death.
This was the maiden flight!
Safety first.
Preparing to take off after just taxiing 150 meters?!
"Grand Marshal!"
He picked up the communicator: "You… be careful!"
"Don't worry, I know the performance of this aircraft better than anyone!"
"Take off! Lei Qiang, record, 190 meters!"
You must know.
That as a heavy fighter jet, the shortest takeoff distance of the initial J-20A was about 320 meters.
Even the shortest takeoff distance of North America's F-22 is 240 meters.
Upgraded version of the J-20C.
The shortest takeoff distance is only 190 meters!
Incredible!
"Low-altitude acceleration limit test!"
A sonic boom sounded!
The Mach ring sprayed out a longer blue flame.
Boom!
A vapor cone appeared outside the fighter jet!
J-20C Vapor Cone
Looking at the hazy vapor cone in the distance through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the control tower, General Wang's palms were full of sweat, and his calves were shaking.
"Extreme cruising speed 2.2 Mach!"
"Climbing limit test!"
"Maneuverability test!"
"Ultra-high altitude test!"
"Current flight altitude 24,000 meters, ultra-high altitude extreme speed test!"
"Afterburner activated!"
The sound echoed in the control tower.
One extreme data after another was constantly being born during the test flight.
Control room.
With General Wang at the head, whether it was military officers or R\u0026D team scientists, they all clenched their fists secretly.
Excited!
Too excited!
The data given by Chen Hao was even better than the performance in the technical data!
But everyone's heart was in their throat.
Only two people had seen the commendation order.
But as long as they weren't fools, they could guess some clues.
This young man.
His identity was above General Wang!
If something happened…
The consequences would be unimaginable!
"Release the target drone!"
The basic performance data had already come out one after another.
Chen Hao's instructions came from the communicator.
"Release the target drone!" General Wang immediately ordered.
The target drone was not at the test flight base, but 300 kilometers away!
Northwest of Shenyang.
Somewhere in the Horqin Sandy Land.
A J-6 took off.
The pilot made various adjustments, and after rising to an altitude of 8,000 meters, he turned on the automatic flight mode and parachuted away — this flight was specially used for target drone experiments and had undergone relevant modifications.
"Distance 320 kilometers! Radar lock!"
"Air-to-air missile activated!"
"Beyond visual range attack, launch!"
Whoosh!
Missiles are part of the fighter jet.
The R\u0026D team not only had to develop fighter jets, but also a series of corresponding weapons.
Missile launch!
Instantly.
Accelerating to an astonishing 7 Mach!
30 seconds…
1 minute…
1 and a half minutes…
Boom!
In just two minutes.
Under active radar guidance, 320 kilometers away, that J-6 turned into powder, a rain of fire in the sky!
A quarter of an hour later.
The J-20C landed steadily on the runway.
General Wang's legs were shaking, and seeing Chen Hao coming down from the cockpit, he greeted him with red eyes.
It was excitement!
China finally had its own stealth fighter!
Performance crushing North America!
Radar reflection cross-sectional area less than 0.004 square meters!
Besides excitement…
Even more fear!
His heart was hanging the whole time, worried that something might happen to Chen Hao.
"Little Chen… no! Grand Marshal!" His heart was still pounding wildly.
"Call me Little Chen, I'm so much younger than you, and it's not a formal occasion," Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Okay!"
General Wang, who came from the military, was not pretentious.
He lowered his voice: "You are the chief engineer, you donated money for the project's R\u0026D, and you were the first to test fly — give the fighter jet a name!"
J-20C?
That was the name of the previous life.
During the R\u0026D process, Chen Hao called it the new fighter jet when talking to everyone.
"J-22," Chen Hao said with a smile.
Why is it called J-22?
North America's fighter jet that first flew in 1997 was called F-22.
China's new fighter jet…
Destroy the F-22!
Calling it J-22 is the most appropriate.
"What's the codename?" General Wang asked.
"Wyvern."
"Good!"
"No need to continue test flights, and no need for any improvements, start mass production immediately!"
"No problem!"
General Wang didn't hesitate.
Chen Hao had said long ago that this fighter jet didn't need test flights, no need to waste time looking for flaws, and mass production should start immediately after completing R\u0026D.
In his previous life, the J-20C had already been mass-produced and in service, and the technical data he provided was flawless!
"Chief Chen!"
At this moment.
The R\u0026D team came: "You can really fly a plane?!"
"Is that strange?" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Chief Chen, there are some questions… I've always been confused about," Zhang Enhe frowned.
Here it comes!
Chen Hao showed a faint smile.
These people trusted him too much, one could even say they worshiped him, and after getting the technical data, they were single-mindedly focused on R\u0026D.
In their hearts, Chen Hao was always right and there was no need to question him.
As a result, there were some obvious doubts that no one had ever questioned.
Finally, someone had asked!
