7月26日,中國自主研制的大型水陸兩棲飛機“鯤龍”AG600在山東青島團島海域成功實現(xiàn)海上首飛。
China's homegrown AG600 large amphibious aircraft, codenamed Kunlong, succeeded in its maiden flight over sea on Sunday morning in Qingdao, east China's Shandong province, said State-owned plane-maker Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC). The successful maiden flight from the sea is a major step forward in the development of this large amphibious aircraft following its maiden flight in 2017 and first takeoff from a water reservoir in 2018, said the AVIC.
航空工業(yè)集團宣布,中國自主研制的大型水陸兩棲飛機“鯤龍”AG600于7月26日上午在山東青島成功實現(xiàn)海上首飛。這是AG600飛機繼2017年陸上首飛、2018年水上首飛之后,又邁出的關(guān)鍵一步。
【知識點】
“鯤龍”AG600是我國研制的可用于森林滅火(forest firefighting)和水上救援(marine rescue)的大型水陸兩棲飛機(large amphibious aircraft),具有速度快、機動性好、搜索范圍廣、搜索效率高、安全性好、裝載量大等特點。
森林滅火時,它可多次往返高效率投水滅火,20秒內(nèi)可一次汲水12噸(collect 12 tons of water in 20 seconds),單次投水救火面積可達4000余平方米,接近一個足球場的面積。海上救援時,“鯤龍”可快速響應(yīng)、到達,在復(fù)雜氣象條件下實施救援,起降抗浪能力不低于2米,可一次救助50名海上遇險人員(carry 50 people during search-and-rescue missions)。
“鯤龍”與我國運—20大型運輸機(the Y-20 transport plane)、C919大型噴氣式客機(the C919 jetliner)一起,被稱為中國大飛機“三劍客”。
Codenamed Kunlong, the AG600 is a key aeronautical equipment in China's emergency rescue system, said the AVIC.
航空工業(yè)集團表示,“鯤龍”AG600是國家應(yīng)急救援體系的重大航空裝備。
The AG600 is designed to meet the country's demands for forest firefighting, marine rescue and other critical emergency rescue missions. It is also the first time that China's aviation industry has developed a special-mission large civil aircraft model.
“鯤龍”AG600是我國為滿足森林滅火和水上救援以及其他緊急救援任務(wù)的迫切需要研發(fā)的,同時也是我國航空業(yè)首次研發(fā)執(zhí)行特殊任務(wù)的大型民用航空器。
航空工業(yè)集團副總經(jīng)理陳元先表示,AG600項目將開展滅火型試驗(firefighting test),計劃2023年完成滅火型研制,并盡早投入使用。
