A strange-looking car was parked on a helicopter pad at a test flight base in southwest China. Next to the strange-quality car, 45 new Dahua Empire helicopters could be seen parked on the helipad.

Surrounding the car with its peculiar quality and appearance, several staff members wearing work clothes of the Colorful Stone Group were inspecting the quality of the flying car. Yes, this car was the high-speed flying troop carrier developed by the Colorful Stone Group for the military.

Wang Wenshan is a helicopter test pilot at this test flight base and has rich helicopter flying experience.

But he never thought that he would have the opportunity to test fly the first flying car developed by Qicaishi Group for the military. And this time, it was his former partner, Wang Zhengying, who was flying the flying car with him.

We have carried out many test flight missions in this test flight base in the past, and the cooperation between the two is very tacit.

Today's test flight was not a helicopter, but a flying personnel carrier, or flying car, that appeared in front of everyone for the first time, so there were already people standing on one side of the tarmac.

Among these people, there are not only military officers and staff, but also designers of some famous helicopters and aircraft in the Dahua Empire and Fang Jinming, the military representative stationed at the Colorful Stone Group.

Just as the technicians of Colorful Stone Group were conducting final inspections on the flying car, a military off-road vehicle drove up from a distance and stopped in a parking space not far from the apron.

In addition to the person in charge of the test flight base, there were also several soldiers and a young man and woman who got off the off-road vehicle.

Yes, these soldiers and these young men and women are the heads of the Hangcheng Military Region and the chairman of Qicai Stone Group Zhang Yi and the general manager of Qicai Stone Group Huang Xiru.

Today, Fang Jinming and the others were no longer dressed in casual clothes like they used to be at the Colorful Stone Group. Instead, they were dressed very formally, in straight major uniforms. When they saw Zhang Yi and the others getting off the off-road vehicle, they immediately strode away.

He came over, first saluted the heads of the Hangcheng Military Region, and then said loudly, "Hello, chief, Mr. Zhang!"

At this time, other people who had come here early to watch the test flight also came forward.

"Minister Shi, why are you here in person?" At this moment, Zhang Yi saw Minister Shi among the people who came to visit the test flight, so he said.

"Well! Of course you have to come and support the off-site test flight of the first military flying personnel carrier produced by your Colorful Stone Group. You must know that this is our country's first flying car that has truly entered the practical stage. If the test flight goes well

, then the military will definitely place large-scale orders, and the airworthiness certificate for the electric aviation engine that you applied for before will be issued soon." Minister Shi replied.

After the two sides exchanged a few words, Minister Shi introduced Zhang Yi to the gray-haired old men in military uniforms next to him. Through his introduction, Zhang Yi knew that these old men in military uniforms were not simple. They were

Dahua Empire, designer of several main helicopters.

"Director Peng, how are the preparations for the test flight? When can the test flight be carried out?" After the two sides chatted for a while, General Huang, who came with Zhang Yi, asked.

"General Huang, the test flight work at the test flight base has been completed. We are just waiting for the staff of Qicai Stone Group to complete the final inspection of the flying car." Director Peng replied.

Director Peng's name is Peng Shangqing. He is the top person in charge of this flight test base and is also the director of the helicopter research institute in this base.

General Huang nodded, while Zhang Yi was secretly happy, even a little excited, because this was the first off-site test flight of the flying personnel carrier developed by their Colorful Stone Group.

You must know that before this, their Qicaishi Group has conducted on-site test flights of this personnel carrier many times, that is, ground-based test flights in Qicaishi Group's own industrial park, but it has never gone through a real field test.

External test flight.

After all, this is a piece of national defense equipment, and at the same time, this equipment is a new engine produced by their factory, so off-site test flights must be carried out at a military-specific test flight site, and the test flight pilot must also be certified by the military.

Professional test pilots will conduct it.

After all, no matter which aircraft it is, it is very dangerous when it flies for the first time. Even the flying car of Qicai Stone Group is theoretically more special than ordinary aircraft in terms of safety performance.

Helicopters are much safer, but there is still a chance of danger.

At this time, Director Peng turned to Zhang Yi and said, "Mr. Zhang, the flying car designed by your Colorful Stone Group is very good and very suitable for aerodynamics. At the same time, the engine of your flying car is also very good."

It’s very excellent. I didn’t expect that such a small electric aviation engine can actually provide more than 500 kilograms of thrust.”

Zhang Yi smiled and replied confidently: "Director Peng, our Qicai Stone Group has spent a lot of effort to develop this engine, so that the thrust of our Qicai Stone Group's engine has only been a few tens of kilograms from the beginning.

The thrust increased to 200 kilograms later and to more than 500 kilograms now.

Even in order to increase the thrust, superconducting materials are used in the motor of this engine to improve the performance of the engine. The rapid air heating equipment developed by our company is also installed inside. This is how we have the engine we have now.

.”

After the two chatted for a while, the staff who were inspecting the flying car on the tarmac had already closed the engine cover of the flying car, which indicated that their final inspection of the flying car was about to end, and the flight

Car test flights will begin soon.

In the eyes of everyone, the colorful stone group technicians who inspected the quality of the flying car finally moved away from the flying car. At the same time, they waved to everyone to say that the final inspection of the flying car had been completed and that no problems were found during the inspection.

.

At this time, the weather in the area where the test flight base is located is very good. You can see the blue sky when you look up, and the visibility is very high. This is incomparable to the coastal areas where the Colorful Stone Group is located. It can be said that this is definitely a test flight.

The good weather.

The two pilots who were about to prepare for the test flight were already ready to go and were waiting for orders from the test flight base. At the same time, various detection equipment at the test flight base had been prepared.

Following the order from the test flight base tower, the two test pilots, Wang Wenshan and Wang Zhengying, who were already ready for departure, also began to slowly walk towards the flying car.

At this moment, the two of them were actually a little excited. After all, this was a flying car. In the past, it could only be seen in science fiction movies. Unexpectedly, they were now lucky enough to be the first to test-fly a flying car for military use.

After receiving the order, the two people immediately began to jog in the direction of the flying car, and soon arrived next to the flying personnel carrier.

Just when they arrived at the flying personnel carrier, and before they could reach out to open the door, the door of the flying vehicle opened on its own. Seeing the familiar and unfamiliar instruments inside, he sat in with mixed feelings.

And close the door of the flying car.

Although the equipment in this flying car is somewhat different from the equipment on other aircraft, it is still somewhat similar to a car driving on the road.

"Turn on the flying car and conduct a comprehensive inspection of the flying car." At this moment, the sound of the tower came from the speaker in the flying car.

Directional operation equipment is normal!

The instrument is normal!

Remaining power 99!

The engine is normal!

Escape equipment is normal!

The smart system is normal!

As the intelligent detection equipment of the flying car is turned on, the flying car starts to work. The slight sound of the engine is heard clearly in the ears. Because the intelligent detection equipment is turned on, the engine of the flying car begins to enter a low-speed working state.

"Report to the tower, the flying car inspection is completed, all equipment checks are normal, and the power remaining is 99%! You can enter the test flight program at any time!" When the intelligent detection equipment completed the inspection, the inspection results were reported to the tower.

"This is the tower, now order the flying car to take off!"

After hearing the tower's order, the sound of the flying car's engine gradually became louder as they operated, and strong airflow began to appear at the bottom of the flying car. The already clean apron was also blown by the strong airflow.

There was only a little dust.

Seeing the strong airflow at the bottom of the flying car, at this time, the soldiers standing next to them and Zhang Yi were all staring at the flying car. Among them, the people belonging to the Colorful Stone Group were the most excited, including Zhang Yi

Inside.

As Wang Wenshan gently increased the throttle of the engine, the flying car began to slowly leave the ground. When it was about one meter away from the ground, the flying car made a brief levitating movement, and then moved to an angle of 0 degrees.

direction, flying quickly into the air.

It is obvious that during this test flight, the flying car took off very smoothly, and the speed at which it took off was simply not comparable to that of a helicopter.

Seeing the flying car taking off smoothly, Zhang Yi's excitement calmed down a lot. After all, he was confident that they were the flying troop carrier produced by the group.

However, some people were very excited when they saw this scene. Director Peng of the test flight base, because when Director Zhang Peng saw the flying car flying smoothly into the sky, he thought of a lot of things. As

The director of the Helicopter Research Institute, he knows exactly what the emergence of flying cars means.

He knows that with the emergence of this flying car and the gradual maturity of electric aviation engines in the future, current helicopters will slowly be replaced by various types of helicopters with better performance, safer, faster and higher strategic value.

replaced by flying cars.

He was not frustrated by this, but instead became more excited. The gap between the Dahua Empire and foreign helicopter manufacturers in helicopter research was not generally large, but when it came to flying cars, other countries had no concept yet. Dahua Empire
Chapter completed!
