Chapter 82, Soaring Into the Sky

On the empty airport, under everyone's attention, a pilot wearing a thick pressure-resistant space suit slowly entered the fighter plane through the elevator ladder. This pilot is called Yang Yi, an astronaut himself, who has traveled to and from space many times. He was also a fighter pilot before. This time he was given a glorious mission to become the test pilot of the first aerospace fighter.

"Take off!"

As an order was issued, everyone couldn't help but pick up the telescope in their hands and look at the fighter plane on the airport.

"Buzz!"

The plasma engine started, and a buzzing sound came from the air. I saw circles of ripples in the air rippling in all directions. The lawn next to the fighter runway was like a hurricane, and all the grass was blown away by this circle of waves.

Then two orange-red tail flames shot out from the rear of the fighter, and then instantly turned into dazzling white, making people dare not look directly at it. Under this high-temperature tail flame of several thousand degrees and the very strong impact, the high-standard runway at the rear was destroyed in an instant, and the cement blocks with black burn marks rushed to the rear quickly.

In the eyes of everyone, the fighter was like a sharp arrow shot out. When the tail flame turned from orange-red to dazzling white, the fighter instantly shot out. In less than ten meters, the fighter had already taken off, like a dazzling meteor flowing back to the sky.

In 3 seconds, a circle of water mist appeared on the outer shell of the fighter, and the roar in the sky became more piercing. This was a sign of breaking the speed of sound, producing a huge sonic boom.

In just 5 seconds, the fighter plane had risen to a height of several thousand meters and disappeared from everyone's sight. A light smoke channel slowly appeared behind the plane, and then slowly disappeared. That was the impact on the atmosphere after breaking the speed of sound, which promoted the condensation of water mist.

When everyone couldn't see the plane, they immediately turned their eyes to the large screen of the command center. The radar on the ground and the satellite in the space formed a three-dimensional tracking system, which could accurately know the location of the plane.

On a huge world map, the red dot fighter plane was like an ant crawling on it. It didn't seem to be very fast, but this was on the world map. It could have such a terrible moving speed, which was comparable to an intercontinental missile.

"5 times the speed of sound!"

"10 times the speed of sound!"

In just a few minutes, the fighter plane flew out of the atmosphere of Tianfu Province from north to south, and ten minutes later it flew directly out of the border and entered the sky over the Indian Ocean.

"Energy is normal!"

"Liquid compressed air is normal!"

"Engine is normal!"

"Signal tracking is normal!"

...

Everyone in the hall looked at the green indicator lights and the red dots on the world map that were still moving rapidly. Everyone had a solemn look on their faces, because they were about to undergo the most severe test.

"Fly into space!"

As an order was issued from the command center, the fighter planes far over the Indian Ocean suddenly rushed into space like a sharp arrow. In just a few minutes, the fighter planes flew out of the atmosphere and into space.

On the monitor, the satellites that had been prepared in advance took pictures of the fighter planes flying into space and transmitted them to the monitor of the command center. In the pictures, the fighter planes looked like holy birds bathed in holy light, lifelike, and like a ray jumping out of the sea. Below was the sky blue earth emitting the aura of life.

"20 times the speed of sound!"

Flying into space, without air resistance, the speed of the fighter continued to soar, so that the pilot had to quickly shut down the engine and let the fighter circle around the earth like a spacecraft. If the engine continued to work, the speed of the fighter would continue to increase.

"Everything is normal!"

In space, all kinds of data are still green, without any problems. The fighter is circling the earth in the sky. The country's ocean-going monitoring ships in various oceans on the earth and the satellite network in space transmit the position, speed, etc. of the fighter in real time. The fighter's own communication system also reports the situation of the fighter to the ground command center anytime and anywhere.

"Fighter return!"

After strolling around in space and confirming that there are no hidden dangers and problems with the fighter, the ground command center decisively issued a return order.

In space, the fighter that received the order is like a ray diving, diving into the blue earth that exudes the halo of life, like an elf descending from the sky.

The fighter plane dived down from space at a very fast speed, but the fighter plane's plasma engine did not start, because the fighter plane's speed was too fast. In order to land safely on the ground, the fighter plane's speed had to be reduced to a safe enough level, so the speed of the fighter plane had to be reduced by air resistance.

"10 Mach!"

"5 Mach!"

The closer the fighter plane was to the ground, the slower the fighter plane's speed was. The strong air resistance caused the fighter plane's speed to drop sharply. At this time, the fighter plane was like a space shuttle of the Eagle Sauce, gliding in the sky.

"Buzz!"

When the speed of the fighter plane dropped to 1 Mach, the fighter plane's engine started again, but it was running at a very low power, naturally to adjust the direction of the fighter plane's flight, but also for safety. If there was any emergency, it could take off again and find a suitable landing time.

Half an hour later, when the fighter plane appeared in everyone's sight again, the speed of the fighter plane had been reduced to a safe range. For safety reasons, the fighter plane's parachute was opened and the fighter plane slowly stopped on the runway.

The driver Yang Yi slowly opened the cockpit and walked out slowly with the help of the ground staff. At the same time, he did not forget to wave in the direction of the command center. Obviously, his condition was quite good.

"Haha! Success!"

Until this moment, Liu Shiying jumped up instantly, and his clenched fists were released instantly. The whole person laughed happily like a three-year-old child.

"Pa pa!"

In the entire huge command center, no one knew who took the lead. Thunderous applause continued to sound. Everyone had a happy smile on their faces and laughed happily at each other.

The test flight of China's first generation of aerospace fighters ended perfectly. The fighter took off from the ground and flew into space. After a circle in space, it landed on the ground very smoothly and safely. There was nothing wrong with the pilot and the fighter plane. It was perfect!

"The national artifact! From now on, China will lead the world!"

Such a paragraph appeared on the huge display, making the atmosphere even more excited. Everyone laughed happily, and a strong sense of pride arose spontaneously.

After lagging behind for a hundred years and being beaten for a hundred years, we once doubted ourselves, and we seemed so unconfident. We were independent of the world, we were doubted, and we endured too much, too much unfair treatment, so we caught up, we marched forward, and we created one miracle after another.

Today, in the world's most advanced and cutting-edge aviation and aerospace fields, we China took the lead in developing a brand-new aerospace fighter, which is enough to look down on the world. From now on, the world will be led by us China!
