"Principal Su, it was delivered a long time ago. We have completed all our regular training tasks."
The Southern Military Region was the first theater to commission the J-20.
He has extensive training experience, and in addition, he has the best relationship with Commander Tang.
The maiden flight training mission for the J-20C was naturally assigned to Commander Wang.
"I was referring to carrier-based aircraft takeoff and landing tests."
The J-20C series aircraft carrier developed this time was specifically designed and upgraded for the "Shrimp-class" aircraft carrier.
It can not only take off and land over short distances, but also perform vertical takeoff and landing.
"Principal Su, do you think I don't understand what you mean? We've already done a simulation."
We built a movable simulated deck at sea.
Multiple high-speed landing tests have been conducted.
As for takeoff, your 031 R&D base has already mastered the vertical takeoff and landing technology.
Are you still worried about it not being able to fly?
Surprisingly, Commander Wang turned out to be quite reliable this time.
I guess it's because of the last time it hit the American target ship, hunting down the J-20. This guy went to headquarters...
He received many awards and reaped many benefits.
"Okay, I'll send you the route map and the detailed departure schedule in a bit."
Before entering the Pacific Ocean, the J-20C fighter group must appear over our aircraft carrier.
On guard duty!
"It's no big deal. Do you think my Southern Military Region is short of money for gas?"
Principal Su, you should focus on preparing for the experiment!
Early the next morning,
According to the pre-arranged experimental plan,
Su Lin, Commander Yuan, and Huang Tianguo, the person in charge of the Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant.
We arrived on the deck of the aircraft carrier.
"Report, General Manager Huang, all pre-startup checks for the nuclear reactor are complete."
No abnormalities or alarms were detected!
"General Manager Huang, this time we'll have to operate at full capacity. Your nuclear power team..."
We must be extremely vigilant and prevent any accidents from happening!
News of China's first aircraft carrier is now appearing in mainstream media worldwide.
It's dominated the headlines for several days now.
If the car breaks down, wouldn't we become a laughing stock worldwide?
"Commander Yuan, don't worry, the engineers from Lanxiang Military Industry and the technicians from our Qingshan Nuclear Power Plant..."
With this level of security, do you think there's any possibility of something going wrong?
"Calling the nuclear power team."
"Received! Please provide instructions!"
"Activate immediately, all nuclear power reactors!"
"receive!!!!"
Buzz~~~~~
Under the action of a nuclear power reactor
The giant steam turbines inside the aircraft carrier began to operate.
The aircraft carrier began to move slowly toward the sea.
"It's moving!!!! Our aircraft carrier has finally embarked on its first long-range voyage!"
"That acceleration is pretty fast, even faster than our frigates!"
"The internal mechanical noise is actually quieter!"
This is thanks to the experience gained by the 031 R&D base in the previous development of the WS-15 engine.
They have accumulated considerable experience in noise control.
Compared to the crown jewel of industry, the "gas turbine"
The technology behind steam turbines is child's play.
Huge waves were churned up on both sides of the aircraft carrier.
Commander Yuan stood at the front of the deck.
Gazing at the boundless sea,
"Commander Yuan, how is it? Are you satisfied with our nuclear power?"
"I'm satisfied. I never imagined that in my lifetime I would finally be able to stand at the bow of our aircraft carrier."
Look at the magnificent coastline of our China!
"Mr. Huang, don't forget today's operational data; it must be recorded in its entirety."
A post-mortem analysis is needed later!
Currently, the nuclear reactor and steam turbine are operating well.
Data analysis reveals significant room for improvement and optimization.
"Principal Su, the technical team has already started working."
“Call the data analytics team.”
"receive!!!"
What is the current load on the nuclear reactor?
"Report! We have reached 70% load, and the temperature is normal!"
"Cooling system is normal, helium pipeline pressure is normal!"
"The fuel rods are in the correct position; there has been no misalignment!"
"See that? Extremely stable. Continue increasing the load, raise it to 90%!!!"
"receive!"
As the nuclear reactor's load increased, the USS Mantis Shrimp's forward speed also increased.
"Beep beep beep~~~~~~~"
Several blasts of the ship's horn drew the attention of the group on deck.
A cruiser and two frigates began approaching the USS Mantis Shrimp aircraft carrier from both sides.
"Our frigates have arrived too!"
To ensure the safety of this sea trial, Commander Yuan dispatched a cruiser.
Two frigates, forming a maritime escort formation.
To carry out escort missions!
"Report your current latitude and longitude!!!"
The captain of the aircraft carrier "Mantis Shrimp" reported the exact location to Commander Yuan.
We are now less than 20 nautical miles from the Pacific Ocean.
We are about to enter the operational range of the US carrier strike group.
........
At this moment, inside the command center of the Marquesebo Air Force Base in the Philippines,
Radar signal soldiers are conducting routine 24-hour reconnaissance over the Pacific Ocean.
Suddenly, four red dots appeared on the radar screen.
"Report! Anomaly detected in the Pacific Ocean!!!"
The commander in the command center, leaning over the control panel, saw four green dots.
