Chapter 560: Engine Installation Completed

In the afternoon, the engine installation was thoroughly completed; immediately afterward, Lin Qinhua and Chen Mo led the team, beginning to install the fuselage skin.

The installation of the skin was more complex than imagined; each piece required precise alignment, ensuring a smooth surface while guaranteeing fit with the fuselage and maintaining the integrity of the stealth coating.

Xiao Zhang and the young technicians crouched on the ground, minutely adjusting the skin's position, tightening fasteners; when blisters on their hands burst, they simply bandaged them and kept working, showing no hesitation.

Lin Shengli remained in the workshop, periodically walking to each station to check progress; when problems arose, he discussed solutions with everyone.

He watched these young researchers, seeing them devote themselves to the nation's defense cause without regard for personal gain, his heart filled with emotion and pride.

He knew these young people were the hope of the nation's defense undertaking and the future of Daxia Guo's technological breakthrough.

In the evening, as the sun set, golden afterglow fell across the workshop, making the fuselage silhouette stand ever taller.

After a whole day of work, the fuselage skin installation neared completion, with only the last few pieces remaining for final adjustment and fitting.

Lin Zhengcheng, Chen Mo, Lin Qinhua, Xiao Zhang and others gathered together, carefully checking each skin's installation; after confirming there was no deviation, they finally let out a sigh of relief.

"We've worked hard today," Lin Zhengcheng said, looking at everyone with a relieved smile. "The engine and skin installation are basically done; next we'll conduct system debugging and comprehensive testing, striving to finish assembly soon and enter the flight-test phase."

"Good!" everyone replied in unison, their voices full of vigor and anticipation.

Although everyone was exhausted after the day, with blisters on their hands and bloodshot eyes, their faces glowed with a sense of accomplishment—they had overcome another obstacle and moved a step closer to their goal.

Night fell again; the workshop lights remained bright, even more brilliant than the previous night.

The hum of testing equipment, the clatter of tools, and the voices of discussion intertwined, forming the most moving melody of the night. Lin Zhengcheng pulled out the bookmark from his pocket, and in the lamplight he once again saw the small line on its back: "Heart holds hills and valleys, action heads toward distant places."

He lifted his gaze to his comrades fighting side by side, then to Lin Shengli and Zheng Juan standing guard not far off, his heart brimming with strength.

He knew the upcoming system debugging and comprehensive testing would bring even more challenges, and countless sleepless nights of hard work lay ahead, yet he felt no fear. For he knew he was not fighting alone; beside him stood the most reliable team, the warmest companionship, and the firmest belief.

Night deepened; the workshop lights shone as bright as day, illuminating their path forward and also lighting the hope of the Daxia Guo Stealth Bomber soaring through the blue sky.

They held their positions, using youth and sweat, perseverance and devotion, bit by bit breaking through technological blockades, bit by bit writing the glorious chapter of Daxia Guo's defense research, guarding the land they deeply loved, awaiting the day their dreams would blossom.

At dawn the next day, the first ray of sunlight pierced the clouds, brighter than before; streaming through the workshop's glass windows, it cast the fuselage's complete outline in brilliant radiance.

After the previous day's struggle, engine and fuselage skin installation were fully complete; a rudimentary stealth bomber stood silently in the workshop's center, its lines sharp, its posture upright, like a poised eagle—silent yet powerful. Lin Zhengcheng stood before the fuselage, his fingertips lightly brushing the smooth skin, his eyes filled with awe and anticipation—this was the fruit of countless days and nights of toil, the hope of breaking through technological blockades, and the confidence to defend home and country.
