Chapter 163 Amazing Features

The people on both sides of the fighter jet, after combining the information, finally concluded that the bomb bays on both sides of the fuselage alone could carry four short-range air-to-air missiles.

This side weapons bay is the same as the one on the Dragon, although the one in front of us is not as big as the Dragon.

However, this does not mean that the aircraft is weak in combat capability. Judging from the weapons that have been displayed so far, it is already a very good fighter jet.

The issues of pilot problems, near-dip breech intake problems, and side bomb bays had not yet been fully resolved by the people on site!

The black cloth in Li Zhenhua's hand was already rolled up, revealing the front half of the fuselage.

A reporter who was squatting in front of the plane, patting the nose landing gear, drew everyone's attention away from his shouts and towards the belly of the plane.

This reminder caused everyone present to lower their heads, some bending over, while others squatted down.

"Everyone, quickly crouch down and look! Look at the belly of the plane!"

Holy crap, that's incredible!

frenzied!"

As these people crouched down, the situation under the aircraft came into view, which made them agree with the guy who had just spoken.

frenzied!

An aircraft only 9 meters long can actually carry two PL-15 medium-range missiles inside its fuselage.

And that's not all; there are three more bombs in the internal bomb bay under the fuselage.

For these industry insiders or military enthusiasts, the shape of the missiles is not difficult to recognize at all; they are three air-to-ground missiles.

The group carefully calculated the aircraft's firepower configuration: two 20mm cannons, ammunition unknown, four short-range air-to-air missiles, two medium-range air-to-air missiles, and three air-to-ground missiles.

Such firepower is undeniably powerful; just look at those two 20mm autocannons—that's the same configuration as the ground version of the Foshan 35.

Moreover, this is only the internal payload capacity. If you add a few external hardpoints to the wings, the payload capacity can be increased even further.

But these people have forgotten what kind of aircraft uses an internal bomb bay.

Yes, only stealth fighters use internal weapons bays, so their idea of ​​externally mounted missiles on the wings is nonsense.

Of course, if absolute air superiority is achieved, everything will be a different story.

No wonder the plane looks so bulky, given that so many weapons have to be crammed into a plane that's over nine meters long.

At this moment, this kind of fat is beginning to be taken for granted in people's eyes, and the strong objections that were there at the beginning are no longer there.

When I looked at it again, I found this kind of fatness to be so cute, a cute fat person.

The black cloth was lifted to this point and couldn't be lifted any further. Why? The wing caught the black cloth.

He climbed down the ladder, took the black cloth hanging on the wing, and unrolled it towards the middle of the fuselage.

Once the black cloth was rolled up, the same operation was performed on the other side, and the wings on both sides were officially revealed.

The expressions on the faces of those watching were quite interesting. They first looked at the plane in front of them, then it flew over their heads and looked at the other two drones next to it.

Look at the one you're interested in, then look at the other two next to it.

"Damn, this really is a series. That confirms some doubts: this plane is indeed a drone."

No matter how unbelievable it may seem, this conclusion is the truth.

The black cloth covering Suzaku 9 was still being lifted backward.

At this point, most of the aircraft's features have been revealed: cannons, missiles, and variable-sweep wings.

If there's any important part that hasn't been revealed yet, it's the chrysanthemum at the very end.

Without further ado, he used the ladder to lift the black cloth off the twin tails.

The entire black cloth was quickly drawn on the plane and fell to the ground, revealing the complete airplane to everyone.

At this moment, someone was looking at the overall shape of the aircraft. Although it appeared to be a stealth design, its bulky body made people somewhat uncertain.

To verify whether the aircraft was indeed a stealth fighter, they then crouched down again and searched the underside of the aircraft for key information that could corroborate their findings.

Soon, they spotted a bulge located in the center of the nose and belly bomb bay.

With this evidence, the aircraft is undoubtedly a stealth aircraft.

What is this protrusion? It's a Luneburg lens.

After concluding that it was a stealth fighter, they all looked like they had seen a ghost.

Could this fat thing be a stealth fighter? Even though I asked that question, the fact is undeniable: it is indeed a stealth fighter.

Those who initially missed out on good spots at the front of the camera could only move to the rear and stop taking pictures.

But the moment the chrysanthemums were revealed, their positions became the best positions.

The camera in his hand was frantically clicking the shutter button, aiming at the airplane's rear end.

High-resolution photos were taken and uploaded to the internet, some with only minor edits.

The chrysanthemum shape has a very obvious characteristic of an axisymmetric vector nozzle.

What engine in the world has an axisymmetric vectoring nozzle? So far, there is only one: the Su-35. Even the Veyron doesn't use a vectoring nozzle.

Why does the Dragon have canards? That's because it's designed to accommodate the engine without the thrust vectoring nozzle.

After they had all received the chrysanthemum pattern from the tail section, they combined the characteristics of the fighter jet that they had only learned about from its appearance.

When all these characteristics are combined, they can only exclaim "Holy crap!" to express their amazement.

After the fighter jets were unveiled, Li Zhenhua picked up the microphone and gave a brief introduction to the crowd.

It was supposed to be an introduction, but it didn't actually mention anything useful or anything that people were interested in.

"Welcome everyone to the unveiling ceremony of our company's latest fighter jet. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you all."

I'm sure none of you want to hear me talk about these things, so I'll just say something useful.

First of all, the name of our fighter jet is Suzaku 9, which is a stealth drone.

As you can see, it's still an aircraft that uses variable-sweep wing technology.

With its powerful ammunition capacity and firepower, that's all I can say. I hope you won't take offense.

After saying this, he immediately walked out through the reserved passage on the side, fearing that he would be stopped and unable to leave due to the heightened emotions of the crowd.

His words were utter nonsense to everyone else; aside from the name of the plane, everything else was obvious.

After he left, these people couldn't find the person in charge, so they had no choice but to shut up.

Then he started taking pictures of the plane in front of him like crazy. His thinking was simple: since he couldn't get more information from the official sources...

Then take more detailed photos, and when you get back, look at the photos and try to guess the answer. You'll eventually guess right.

These reporters or military enthusiasts have thoroughly implemented the principles of UC Shock Department: start with a picture, and then make up all the content.

However, among these fabricated accounts, some people did offer very insightful analyses of the aircraft, even guessing some of its functions.

However, these kinds of videos don't stay online for very long; they are quickly taken down without any reason.

After the videos were deleted, the people who posted the analysis videos all became quiet and did not continue to conduct in-depth research on Suzaku 9.

In an internet saturated with fake news, these authentic and informative videos are just a drop in the ocean, quickly forgotten.

However, it was precisely these false rumors that made the Suzaku 9 a viral sensation online.

All the anticipation previously placed on the H-20 bomber has now been transferred to this Suzaku 9.

The online uproar did nothing to dampen anything at the airshow.

On the afternoon of the day the Suzaku 9 was unveiled, which was also the afternoon of National Day, a group of important figures came to the airshow.

The group of men in the lead were dressed in suits, but even so, their demeanor revealed them to be soldiers.

He was very curious about the arrival of these people. Why? Because they were accompanied by six people dressed in white robes.

He also spotted a familiar face among the white robes: Prince Ahmed.

Then the identities of these people become obvious: they are the people of Camel Country, referred to as "Sha Mouren" or "locals."

The fact that they were at the airshow, accompanied by others, makes it easy to guess what they were there for.

These people are here to spend money like crazy and buy things. That's why Kyushu doesn't sell military rabbits. If military rabbits were included in the trade list, they would definitely be exported.

Back in the day, they even sold defensive double-kicks, so it's not surprising that they're participating in the Xiangshan County Airshow now.

Watching the man in the suit lead the way towards Seven Colors Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Co., Ltd.,

Li Zhenhua was inwardly cursing: These rich bastards are treating good things like they're nothing!

We came here and headed straight for the Seven Colors area. Didn't all those No. 4 drones we bought last time get destroyed? Didn't we hear that the No. 4 production line was bought over there?

Why are you running towards the seven-colored area as soon as you arrive? Did production run out and you fell?

Out of sheer boredom, he sat down in his area and started thinking, but before he could finish his thought for long...

The director of the airshow organizer came to their booth, and the other party didn't stand on ceremony with him. He spoke to him as if his eyebrows were on fire.

"Mr. Li, listen to me, don't interrupt."

I just received instructions from my supervisor. The higher-ups said your company's Zhuque 3 and Zhuque 8...

Both of these aircraft are on the export list; the leaders will probably be here soon.

Also, the Suzaku 9 is an aircraft that absolutely cannot be exported, so please don't let it slip.

In the future, do not make any decisions on your own. Everything should be based on the leader's instructions. Remember that!

The rest is up to you to handle as you see fit.

One last piece of advice: don't stray from the overall direction.

Good things have fallen into my lap? Are Suzaku 3 and Suzaku 8 going to be exported?
