Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 156 [Chengfei Shenfei applied for matching, three sixth-generation aircraft took off in two days]

There are some details on the Internet. Through the viral pictures and videos, combined with nearby reference objects, it is estimated that the size of this mysterious fighter is about 35 meters in length, 22 meters in wingspan, and 5.5 meters in height.

This estimated data has almost no error compared to the actual data.

The prototype has a total length of 35.67 meters, a wingspan of 22.19 meters and a total height of 5.75 meters.

As time went by, the popularity grew. About an hour later, Xiao Yu suddenly updated a post on his Weibo:
[The photos taken by netizens are a bit blurry, here comes the high-definition pictures of the interior and a new perspective. 】

As soon as Xiao Yu posted this Weibo, the popularity of the post reached a new peak. This Weibo post was quickly forwarded by countless netizens and became a hot topic in major communication groups and forums.

In this Weibo post, Xiao Yu directly uploaded high-definition video footage shot inside the R&D center, including close-up footage of the prototype aircraft driving out of the hangar and superconducting floating vertical take-off and landing. Except for not showing the interior of the aircraft and information that needs to be kept confidential, all other high-definition close-ups are included.

These are perspectives that can only be shot from inside the R&D base, and the duration is a full 150 seconds. Many close-up shots are displayed openly, and the majority of military fans and netizens are thrilled to watch them.

Today is undoubtedly a day of great joy and carnival for the majority of domestic military fans and netizens. Everyone is excitedly discussing the mysterious sixth-generation aircraft of AVIC Linfei.

However, within a few hours, some of the dog nephews started to get busy, and the copywriting was almost the same, saying everywhere that this was not a sixth-generation aircraft at all, and that the standard for sixth-generation aircraft had not yet been determined. The subtext was that only its owner could customize it to the standard of a sixth-generation aircraft.

[Humor, a company that was established less than a year ago can make a sixth-generation aircraft? How can anyone believe this? Let someone who knows can tell me what the standard of a sixth-generation aircraft is? Why is this aircraft a sixth-generation aircraft? What is the basis? Only a dozen hours have passed, and netizens have already started to YY the Pentagon and can't sleep. It's really interesting.]
[Commander: Yes, you are all right, this is just a modified J20, please disperse quickly... (Shiba Inu.jpg)]
[Nephew, there is no doubt about it. Who says there is no standard for the sixth-generation aircraft? Whatever we make is the standard.]
[You are not the only one who can define the standard. The standard for the sixth-generation aircraft is set by ourselves. Mr. Yang has a paper that basically lays the foundation for the understanding of the sixth-generation aircraft. This standard does not need to be recognized by others. Except for Dongda, the PPTs of the sixth-generation aircraft of other countries have not been completed yet.]
[I thought my nephew would not play against the odds, I was wrong, I was too naive, I am also impressed by the way these people think, haha! ]
[These are just CG animations, don’t panic.]
[The "no need to panic" reveals that you are a war idiot... (Shiba Inu.jpg)]
[J20 They also said this before, just ignore these species and let them be.]
[Standard? I am the standard!]
……

While domestic military fans were passionately arguing with the nephew, the news had already spread abroad. The popularity of the foreign network was even higher than that in China. The flight of the AVIC Linfei test aircraft caused an uproar among foreign netizens, and it can be said that it shocked the whole world.

Tonight, at dawn in the Western Hemisphere, the China Aviation Linfei plane topped the hot search on the Magnesium website. Facts have proved that the Magnesium people are not as open-minded as imagined. After leading for more than a century, they were suddenly overtaken by the East China University of Technology in the military field that they are proud of. The performance of the Magnesium people is not much different from that of India and South Korea.

The news spread to the Internet and became a hot topic on major media and social networking platforms in the country. There were rational comments, but more were a lot of angry comments. A strong sour smell filled social media such as Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.

Netizens from Beimei commented:

[It is good to see the progress of the great Eastern country, even though it is still forty years behind.]
[Its design is weak and difficult to control in a dogfight.]
[Things made in the East don't last long. Just calling it 6th generation doesn't mean it is 6th generation. Trust me, no one will want it except Bakithitan.]
[Eastern showed off an aircraft whose technology was 50 years ago in the US. Well, I wasn't impressed.]
[Is the plane big? Too weak]
[Yeah, well, they stole it from us.]
[This looks like a shared fighter jet design, as bad as their shared bikes, innovation will never come to their mind.]
……

The next day, on the morning of December 12, even more explosive news came out.

Chengfei and Shenfei suddenly made a big move today when no one expected it. The two aircraft design bureaus test-flew two new models in the morning and afternoon respectively. They also had the characteristics of delta wing layout and no vertical tail, which was in line with Chief Designer Yang's understanding of the sixth-generation aircraft. The key was that there were J-20 fighter jets accompanying them.

Wow, this has confused the majority of military fans on the Internet. The analysis of the mysterious fighter jet of AVIC Linfei has not been completed yet, and two new models have appeared, and J-20 fighter jets are flying as companions. Almost everyone unanimously believes that this is the sixth-generation aircraft.

This was a big deal, and the entire Internet was in an uproar again.

[Are the Trisolarans coming to attack the Earth? Three sixth-generation aircraft were unveiled in just two days? What's going on? I'm completely confused.]
[Cheng Fei: We can’t let Lin Fei steal all the limelight.]
[Shen Fei: We can’t let them steal all the limelight.]
[The last time three planes caused such a stir in the Pentagon was in 2001.]
[Haha, what a hell of a joke.]
[If I go back to the 1990s, or even the 2000s, or even 2010, and tell my past self that three sixth-generation aircraft have flown into space in the past two days, would you believe it? Most people would answer that my past self would think that my future self is daydreaming.]
[It's quite explosive, really too outrageous, I've never seen anything like this in my life. I've seen countries engage in arms races, but I've never seen a country engage in an arms race with itself... (covering my face with laughter and tears.jpg)]
[Dongda: I didn’t know what the sixth-generation aircraft should look like, so I tried to make three…]
[In the blink of an eye, J-20 has become Mrs. Niu... It's so fast!]
[The advantages and disadvantages are too obvious. Let me talk about the advantages first. It is one generation ahead of the 5th generation aircraft, and even two generations ahead of the 1th generation aircraft. But the disadvantages are also obvious. It is one generation behind the 4th generation aircraft... (Shiba Inu.jpg)]
[There is no universally recognized feature or definition for the sixth-generation aircraft. I personally think it is a new model, but it is hard to say whether it is the sixth generation.]
[If it is not the sixth generation J20, there will be no escort. The military has a tradition that the new generation fighters will be accompanied by the old generation fighters. The J6 will accompany the J10, and the J10 will accompany the J20. This tradition has never been lost. It can make the J20 like a follower. Who do you think he is? The wingman of the J20?]
[Why didn’t the AVIC plane fly with the J20?]
[It may be that AVIC Linfei is a private company, or it may be that they didn’t have enough time. After all, no one expected that AVIC Linfei would be able to send an aircraft into the sky less than a year after its establishment. This is what makes me feel explosive and unbelievable. To put it another way, the aircraft of AVIC Linfei is not a sixth-generation aircraft, but the two aircrafts of Chengdu Aircraft Corporation and Shenyang Aircraft Corporation are definitely.]
[I think the AVIC Linfei aircraft is more advanced. Apart from other things, from the perspective of aesthetic design, the AVIC Linfei aircraft has the best appearance among the three models. Appearance is combat effectiveness. It’s not me who said that, it’s the director who said that.]
