Chapter 49: It
"Come! Comrade Little Song, introduce this new type of helicopter to us!"
Wang Zhenlong linked his arm with Song Qi's and said with a beaming smile.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was instantly shaken to their core, and dozens of gazes turned toward Song Qi in unison.
Being watched by so many people, Song Qi felt a bit embarrassed instead.
"Reporting to the Commander!"
"This is just a modified first-generation armed helicopter!"
Song Qi scratched his head and said with a simple, honest expression.
???
For a moment, countless question marks appeared above the heads of everyone present.
Aside from the word "helicopter" in its name, this machine in front of them surely had absolutely nothing to do with the Dragon Nation's first-generation armed helicopter...
Whether it was the size or the appearance.
They were worlds apart!!
How could this be a modified armed helicopter?
Wang Zhenlong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Little Song! Don't be too humble!"
"We aren't blind. We'd believe you if you said this thing was a Decepticon, but it absolutely cannot be the Dragon Nation's first-generation armed helicopter!"
The officers present were all high-ranking officials with real power in the Northwest Military Region's Air Force; they had seen more helicopters than they had touched women.
How could they possibly fail to recognize a first-generation armed helicopter?
With the pathetic size and maximum load capacity of a first-generation armed helicopter, it probably wouldn't even be fit to tie the shoelaces of the helicopter in front of them...
"Commander! The full name of this helicopter is the All-Liquid Metal Air-Energy Displacement Hydrogen Fusion Armed Rescue Helicopter!"
"It really and truly is just a discarded first-generation armed helicopter that I modified..."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask Senior Colonel Deng! This was the mission he assigned to me!"
In an instant, everyone's gaze turned toward Deng Qiang.
Deng Qiang wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, feeling somewhat awkward.
"Re... Reporting to the Commander..."
"I did indeed give Song Qi a discarded helicopter..."
"It's just that I didn't know he would modify it into this state..."
I told you to renovate it, not to melt it down and rebuild it, then upgrade and iterate on it!
You are being way too exaggerated!
Just as everyone was so shocked they couldn't close their mouths, Song Qi's voice came again.
"This helicopter is 45 meters long, 8.9 meters high, has a cargo hold volume of 200 cubic meters, and both internal and external payloads can reach 50 tons. The maximum flight speed can reach 1,000 kilometers per hour, and the maximum range is 5,000 kilometers!..."
As one piece of data after another was spoken from Song Qi's mouth, everyone present was stunned.
After a long while, Wang Zhenlong finally recovered from his dazed state.
"No! Little Song! Is the data you're stating all true?"
"You have to know, even the Mao Xiong Nation's Mi-26 only has a maximum load of forty tons, and its data in all aspects is much smaller than this helicopter of yours..."
"That is the world's largest helicopter..."
"You come out here with a maximum load of one hundred tons and a volume of 200 cubic meters; isn't that a bit too exaggerated..."
Beside him, Deng Qiang also hurriedly nodded.
"The most outrageous thing is that your maximum flight speed is almost one Mach!!!"
"A helicopter flying faster than an early-warning aircraft..."
Although everyone was full of doubts, looking at the confident Song Qi, Wang Zhenlong inexplicably believed a few points of what Song Qi said.
"Commander!"
"These data points aren't fabricated out of thin air; they are the results I just measured with Wu Xiang!"
"Although the data sample is relatively small, it is generally credible!"
"If the Commanders don't believe me, I can have Wu Xiang test-fly it for everyone again!"
Wang Zhenlong and Deng Qiang nodded silently upon hearing this.
That is a good idea!
Wu Xiang: "(○′? д? )?!!"
"Commander!"
"I just fell from the sky! Why are you making me fly again!!!"
"Wu Xiang!"
Deng Qiang's tone instantly sank.
"If you're told to fly, then fly!"
"What's with all the nonsense?"
"If you nag again, see if I don't beat you!!"
"You're lucky I didn't skin you alive for taking Little Song to that kind of place, and yet you have the nerve to bargain!!"
Wu Xiang was stunned.
He never imagined that the usually kind and amiable Commander would treat him like this...
"Little Wu!"
Wang Zhenlong continued earnestly: "You are doing this for our military region!"
"Around here, you're the only one who has flown this helicopter!"
"Don't tell me you want me, this old bag of bones, to go up and fly it?"
Wu Xiang looked at the aged Wang Zhenlong, his heart moved slightly.
"Fine!" ===== CHAPTER 51 =====
