In the military industry that year, the cloud bombs started to wash the ground for monkeys

When Lu Xuan and others came to the test site and saw the helicopter parked in the field, Lu Xuan was stunned.

"This...is this Apache?"

If Eagle Sauce sells to Rabbit not Black Hawk, but Apache.

Lu Xuan would definitely think that Yu Jianmin set up an Apache to fool him.

Because the helicopter in front of me cannot be said to be similar to Apache, it is exactly the same.

Yu Jianmin's face turned red immediately, and he said hastily:

"Director Xiao Lu, after repeated design and demonstration by the team."

"And compare the designs of the Black Hawk, Hornet, and MiG-24 helicopters."

"We agreed that Apache's exterior and structural design was the most perfect."

Lu Xuan agreed with Yu Jianmin's words.

After all, the Apache in the previous life was able to become the strongest helicopter.

It has an inseparable relationship with its appearance design and fuselage structure.

Yu Jianmin continued to introduce: "The Z-9 combines all the advantages of the Apache, Black Hawk and Hornet helicopters."

"In terms of materials, we used a large number of tungsten-molybdenum alloys provided by Jia Yiming for forging and machining."

"A large amount of pressurized nitrogen gas is filled in the blades to check for cracks, and the hydraulic pendulum is used to stabilize the running attitude of the blades."

"The anti-icing device for the leading edge of the blade, the balance adjustment piece, the brake device, etc., are the technologies on the Black Hawk helicopter."

"The engine is based on Apache's TV3-118 turboshaft engine technology, with a single power of 2000 kilowatts."

"The overall weight of the Z-9 has reached a take-off weight of 18790 tons, which is even better than that of the MiG-24..."

In the end, Yu Jianmin is obviously not satisfied with the engine.

But he promised: "Director Xiao Lu, we will continue to work hard on the engine..."

Lu Xuan nodded, very satisfied with Zhi 9's various statistics.

Although there must be a lot of shortcomings, at least it is much better than the Hornet helicopter of the Gallic Chicken.

It is on par with Yingjiang's Black Hawk and Maoxiong's MiG-24. The only way to compare is on the battlefield.

After Yu Jianmin finished his introduction, Lu Xuan said, "Boss Yu, let's start the flight test."

"After the first flight is successful, I will invite Minister Zhao, Commander Zhang and other leaders to come over and conduct multiple test flights."

Yu Jianmin nodded: "If there is no problem with the flight test today, other flight tests will be carried out quickly to test the technical parameters and stability of the design."

Helicopters or fighter jets require multiple test flights and test flights in various environments.

After all, it was flying in the sky, and if something happened, it would be fatal.

After Yu Jianmin finished speaking, he went to arrange matters related to the first flight.

Lu Xuan did not participate in Zhi 9's research work.

Nor did he report the specific research progress to Zhao Xingguo.

Today's first flight, without Mulder, Lu Xuan probably wouldn't have come to inspect it.

(acae) "Director Lu, why does this helicopter look so familiar to me?" Mulder also quickly saw the clue.

Although the Apache helicopter is not officially in service at this time.

The Eagle Sauce military did not disclose specific details to the outside world.

Only dozens of white elephants were sold to test the performance on the battlefield.

But at the time of the battle between the white elephant and the Baba sheep, General Mulder was present.

Therefore, it is normal for Mulder to feel familiar when he sees this helicopter.

Lu Xuan laughed: "General Mulder, you don't want to say that we bought this helicopter from Yingjiang to fool you, do you?"

There is no way, the shape of Zhi 9 is simply a replica of the Apache that Lu Xuan is familiar with, it should be said that it is even more genuine than the original.

Mulder shook his head. He believed that rabbits would not do such things.

It doesn't matter if it's really the Apache of the eagle sauce.

As long as the rabbit can come up with a large number of these helicopters and sell them.

It's just that Lu Xuan and Mu De don't know.

Precisely because the Apache first appeared on the battlefield of white elephants and baba sheep.

A few of them were killed by Baba sheep soldiers with black arrow anti-aircraft rockets.

President Li Gen of Eagle Sauce and the top military officials were furious.

Discontinued Eagle Sauce's Apache project

the other side.

Everyone in the Zhi 9 Research Institute didn't close their eyes all night yesterday.

Even after the final inspection, they can fly, they dare not take it lightly.

Because they know that if there is a mistake in the first flight, it will deal a huge blow to the Zhi-9 Research Institute.

Everyone knows how much the 618 base invested in this project, and how much Lu Xuan trusts them.

"Old Yu, it has been checked many times, and there will be no problem." The deputy chief engineer assured Yu Jianmin.

But when he said this, his voice was not loud, and he seemed to lack confidence.

After all, for any helicopter or fighter jet, no one can guarantee that the first flight will be successful.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem."

Another old engineer also comforted the restless Yu Jianmin.

They were comforting Yu Jianmin, so they were comforting themselves.

They've been flying helicopters for half their lives.

Starting from the straight 5, the straight 6 died, the straight 7 got off the horse, and the straight 8 died.

None of them can bear the blow of failure any longer.

Only then did Yu Jianmin let out a sigh of relief, and turned to the driver Huang Haiqing and said:

"Old Huang, you have to stay relaxed."

"Whether this project can achieve initial success."

"It depends on your first flight."

Huang Haiqing has been the test pilot of this team since Zhi 5.

He has flown every helicopter the team has developed.

Nearly died a few times during the test flight.

But he still persisted.

Because he wanted to see the rabbit's helicopter soaring in the blue sky with his own eyes.

And this test flight was different from any previous one.

The whole team poured their energy into this project.

Therefore, this first flight must not fail! .

070 Straight 9 is no worse than Black Hawk

After the pilots conducted another round of inspections and indicated that there was no problem.

Yu Jianmin cast an encouraging look at Huang Haiqing.

Huang Haiqing took a deep breath, then walked unswervingly to the helicopter not far away.

As a test pilot, life may be sacrificed at any time because of the mission.

But Huang Haiqing has no regrets, because - he likes challenges.

I hope that the helicopters of the motherland will soar in the blue sky.

Straight 9 is much larger than Straight 7, and although the operating system is more complicated, it is easier to operate.

After all, Zhi 7 technology comes from Zhi 5 and Zhi 6, and most of the auxiliary systems are mechanical.

The Zhi 9 uses the hydraulic technology of the 618 base, which is more labor-saving to operate.

"Boss, I'm nervous..." The co-pilot test pilot was not experienced.

But he also flew the straight 7 with Huang Haiqing many times, and almost lost his life.

"There is nothing to worry about, just like we usually simulate driving."

Huang Haiqing endured the tension in his heart, and said calmly.

He must keep calm, because the bottom of the butt is not a straight 5, but a straight 800 worth 9 million Chinese dollars.

800 million, ten yuan Huayuan, the largest face value of the rabbit.

It can be piled up to a hill as big as this helicopter.

Moreover, this is still without the price of installing various weapon systems.

The ground crew commander kept gesticulating, signaling that the plane was ready to take off.

Huang Haiqing took another deep breath and put on the flying helmet.

Put the headset in place, and lightly press the ignition button.

While monitoring the running status of the engine.

While quickly turning on the switches of various devices.

The originally young co-pilot was under the influence of Huang Haiqing.

Also start to follow the operation of the simulation training, turn on the auxiliary switch.

These movements, they have been training for a long time.

All kinds of operations are completely familiar.

boom boom boom

With the roar of the engine sounded.

The propeller hub is slowly activated and begins to spin.

buzzing...

The efficiency of the engine output is higher and higher, and the rotor spins faster and faster.

See that the indicator light is on, and the computer display in front of the console shows that all data are normal.

Huang Haiqing gave a thumbs up to the ground crew commander not far away, indicating that it could take off.

"Take off, pay attention to control the flight attitude."

"Small your movements, take your time, and don't worry."

Yu Jianmin's hand holding the walkie-talkie was trembling slightly.

He has never been so nervous in any test flight before.

This is the work they have devoted all their energy to in the past six months.

Everyone held their breath, and with the slight shaking of the helicopter, their hearts beat even harder.

Finally, the helicopter left the ground and reached a height of about one meter.

The rotors whipped up strong winds, kicking up clouds of dust.

"It's time to fly."

Yu Jianmin's hanging heart seemed to relax a little.

"Fly, straight 9!"
