Chapter 375 (1/2)
Early the next morning, Wang Bin and the personnel during the test flight yesterday came to the airport control center early. After all, the subjects of the test flight today are not simple. Today, not only the test flight in terms of maximum flight altitude and maximum flight speed, but also the test flight in terms of maximum endurance and maximum carrying capacity.
In addition, today's flight test will be conducted on the modified electronic equipment on the aircraft, such as the test of radar system and electronic jamming system on the aircraft. Therefore, today's flight test subjects are very important in the eyes of Wang Bin or Qiu Shi.
It is precisely because today is a test flight subject that is very important, so Wang Bin and they naturally attach great importance to it.
When all the preparations were completed, Wang Bin first looked at Qiu Shi and saw his worried face. After nodding, he nodded to the commander of the control center. Then the commander finally ordered in the interphone of the tower: ”allow to take off!”
At this time, the phoenix-1 aircraft, which is equipped with an armored vehicle weighing about 30 tons, also began to slide forward slowly. It is obvious that because the aircraft is flying full today, the taxiing of the aircraft started, and it was much slower yesterday.
However, Wang Bin and others did not worry too much. After all, the situation is naturally different when the empty aircraft takes off with full load, and now the start of the aircraft is very normal, and even its start speed is much faster than that of the same type of transport aircraft when it takes off with full load.
With the rapid increase of the aircraft's taxiing speed, finally, when the large screen of the control center showed that the aircraft was taxiing for 1230 meters, the aircraft finally slowly raised its head and the body slowly and stably left the ground.
In the control rooms such as Wang Bin and Qiu Shi, everyone was greatly relieved. After all, for an aircraft, taking off and landing are very critical and the most dangerous. After all, how many aircraft accidents occur at this stage.
As the plane took off and flew to the East, the plane did not do any superfluous actions, but flew up at an angle of ten degrees, flying steadily and quickly. At the same time, the speed of the aircraft also increased rapidly, and soon the non motorized speed broke through the sound barrier.
From the large screen of the control center, you can clearly see that even after breaking through the sound barrier, the speed of the aircraft does not change, but still rises rapidly. Finally, when the altitude of the aircraft reaches 15000 meters and the speed reaches Mach 1.5, the speed of the aircraft begins to decline and the altitude does not rise any more.
”Report to the tower, the plane is 15000 meters high and the speed is Mach 1.5. Request to turn on the high-altitude camera equipment and record the detection radar.” at this time, the voice of the crew and the main pilot Zhao Feng came from the interphone of the tower.
”You can turn on the camera equipment and record the radar,” replied the commander of the tower.
Then, on the large screen of the tower, the real-time HD camera image and video transmitted by the aircraft camera equipment appeared on it.
The high-definition camera equipment on the Phoenix is very advanced. Even the faces of small boats sailing on the sea can be seen.
When the video image was transmitted back, the people in the whole command center were very shocked.
