Chapter 992: Air show with many famous aircrafts

As for China's attack aircraft, there is only one.

That is the Q-5!

The Q-5 is a light supersonic attack aircraft developed by China's Nanchang Aircraft Manufacturing Company in the 1960s. It is a single-seat, twin-engine, low-supersonic aircraft equipped with two 23mm caliber cannons. A variety of ground attack weapons can be carried under the fuselage core, with a maximum payload of 2 tons. It is mainly used for low-altitude and ultra-low-altitude attacks on ground or surface tactics, battle depth targets and living forces, and directly supports ground forces in combat.

Shi Lao saw a Q-5 in his sight!

Although the Q-5 has been continuously improved, from the basic model to the Q-5A, and now to the Q-5F and Q-5J, there are a total of 13 models.

But I have never heard that China is developing a new generation of attack aircraft.

Yang Qun did not spend much time with Shi Lao, and he also looked at the fighters with relish.

Yang Qun is very familiar with most of the fighters here.

At the last air show, there was also the J-5 fighter, but it has completely disappeared from this air show. It is said that now, except for the museum, there are no more J-5 fighters in China.

The J-6 fighter also did not appear.

The J-6 fighter was retired from China's active forces early. Currently, there are no more J-6 fighters except in museums and test flight academies.

In the Chinese fighter exhibition area, there are J-7 and its corresponding improved models, J-8 and its corresponding improved models. There are at least 10 improved models of J-7 and J-8.

However, Yang Qun also heard some gossip that the potential of J-7 and J-8 has been exhausted and there will be no more improved models.

Yang Qun was very interested in watching the trainer aircraft one by one. These trainer aircraft appeared at the first Zhuhai Air Show, and hundreds of various types of trainer aircraft were sold at the last Zhuhai Air Show.

The Eagle advanced trainer has now topped the world's advanced trainer rankings, but its price is 5 million US dollars cheaper than the second place. It is truly good value for money. Some countries even buy Eagle advanced trainers to use as third-generation fighters.

When he saw the J-10 fighter and the J-11 fighter, Yang Qun smiled.

At the last Zhuhai Air Show, the J-10 fighter and the J-11 fighter did not appear, but this time they all appeared.

On the other side, Shi Lao was visiting the exhibition areas of European countries. He was holding a camera to take pictures of the Tornado fighter-bomber. This Tornado fighter was murderous and very beautiful.

The Tornado fighter-bomber is a fighter-bomber with excellent performance. It was jointly developed by the United Kingdom, Italy and Germany. It is a twin-engine, two-seat variable-sweep wing fighter-bomber. It was designed in 1969, first flew in 1973, entered service in 1980, and stopped production in 1992. A total of nearly 1,000 aircraft were produced, which can be said to be a very successful fighter.

The Tornado fighter-bomber not only has a ground attack type, but also an air defense interception type and an electronic warfare and reconnaissance type. It can be said to be a very comprehensive model.

The Tornado fighter adopts a variable sweep wing layout, so it has a strong low-altitude penetration capability, and can carry 9 tons of external hang-ups, which is really commendable. In particular, the Tornado fighter has a terrain tracking system, and its engine is also very powerful, so it can penetrate at low altitude at supersonic speed.

In the Gulf War, the Tornado fighter achieved many results, dispatched more than 2,000 times, and bombed 35 large airports and 60 small airports.

Shi Lao watched with relish. These fighter-bombers seemed to reflect the heyday of the development of fighter-bombers in the 1970s. Many classic famous aircraft appeared in that era, and they are still active in the air forces of various countries.

Just thinking that now is the era of multi-purpose fighters, fighter-bombers have already ended in disgrace and given up their place in the era.

The air show was very lively today. Shi Lao squeezed forward with the bustling crowd. Fighter planes appeared in front of him. Watching the world's top fighter planes at such a close distance, the feeling is really beyond words.

This time, the world's major military powers and major airlines came to the Zhuhai Air Show.

In the outdoor exhibition area on the Chinese side, there are J-7 series fighters, J-8 series fighters, Q-5 attack aircraft, K8 primary trainer, J-7 advanced trainer, J-7A advanced trainer, Eagle advanced trainer, Sea Eagle carrier-based aircraft, J-10 fighter, J-11 fighter, laser helicopter and other active military aircraft.

Sea Eagle carrier-based aircraft, J-10 fighter, J-11 fighter are all the first to appear at the Zhuhai Air Show.

Even this time, China's bomber H-6 also appeared at the Zhuhai Air Show.

H-6, although it is an old guy, called "Sixth Master", but it is a bomber. Few countries in the world have bombers stronger than H-6.

Chinese people have a very special temperament, that is, they are brave enough to fight for the first place. If they are not the first place, they are backward and left over by others. They want to fight for the first place in everything.

The economy must be the first in the world, otherwise it is nothing great.

Industrial capacity must be the first in the world, otherwise it is nothing great. Even if the industrial capacity reaches the first place in the world, as long as Chinese industry does not account for more than 50% of the world's industry, it is just average and there is nothing to be proud of. All industrial pearls must be taken off, even the refills of ballpoint pens are considered industrial pearls under the boasting of public intellectuals.

Comprehensive national strength must be the first in the world; military strength must be the first in the world; military expenditure must also be the first in the world.

Wage income must be the first in the world, and social welfare must be the first in the world.

Everything must be world-class, but if it is not the world's first, you have to curse.

If the H-6 was developed by Saudi Arabia, Persia and other countries, Saudi Arabia and Persia would be ecstatic and boastful, and regard it as a national treasure, but in China, the H-6 has been despised for many years.

Shi Lao kept picking up the camera and taking pictures.

This kind of feast is only at the Zhuhai Air Show, where can you see it at ordinary times.

Shi Lao went to the French exhibition area, where there are France's Mirage F1 fighter, Mirage F3/5 fighter, Super Etendard fighter, as well as Rafale fighter, Mirage 2000 fighter and Mirage 4000 fighter.

These are all famous French aircraft!

Shi Lao's eyes mainly stayed on the Rafale fighter, Mirage 2000 fighter and Mirage 4000 fighter, which are all third-generation fighters.

Or according to a saying that began to appear in Europe and the United States, third-generation and a half fighters!

Mirage 2000 fighter, this is the Mirage 2000 multi-purpose fighter developed by Dassault Aviation of France in the 1980s after the famous Mirage III and Mirage F1 fighters, and it began to serve in the French Air Force in 1984. This aircraft has advanced technology and is one of the few fighters in the world that is not "learned" from Soviet and American technology.

At its peak, a Mirage 2000 fighter sold for 50 million US dollars!

Next to the Mirage 2000 fighter, there is a new fighter that is very similar to it, but much larger in size. It is the Mirage 4000 heavy fighter. It can be said that this fighter has even overshadowed the Mirage 2000 fighter and is known as the most advanced fighter in Europe.
