Pearl Airshow, the first one held in 1993, has been held every two years. This year is the 14th. From the beginning, there were only a few countries participating, but by this time, the number of countries and regions that signed up to participate in the exhibition has reached 52, and there are a total of 790 exhibitors!
The last session received a total of 135,000 professional visitors and 250,000 general visitors, and it is estimated that the total number of visitors this session will be close to the 500,000 mark!
Because the country has become stronger and stronger in recent years, more and more people are willing to come to the air show.
Compared with ordinary people, some professional audiences, professionals from military weekly magazines, military columns, etc. from various countries naturally pay more attention to it.
Because they all received the notice, there will be a brand new performance project to be displayed to everyone tomorrow, and all the reporters were a little excited after receiving this news.
According to their guess, if nothing goes wrong, it will definitely be the J20 that will appear tomorrow. However, in the past, the J20 just flew directly through the venue and then showed some of its details. At most, it opened the magazine to show it, but it was nothing.
And more flight performances come from flight demonstration teams from various countries. For example, China and August 1st Aerobatic Team use J10 fighter jets. Could it be that there is a J20 performance event this time to show everyone the maneuverability of the J20?
This is really big news. It will hit the screens all over the world. You must know that in recent years, with the improvement of domestic comprehensive economic strength and scientific research strength, countries around the world have paid more and more attention to China. When J20 first came out, it also caused a huge sensation around the world.
This kind of air show becomes grander every time. With the development of the Internet, countless Internet celebrities, anchors of various live broadcast websites, and bloggers of various short video websites all want to enter here on the first day.
Similarly, as major portals of mainstream media, video websites are naturally not far behind. Compared with other Internet celebrities, these portals have more professional equipment, and of course they have kept up with various advanced shooting equipment.
At this time, it depends on whose equipment is awesome and who can take more awesome pictures, then they can earn more traffic.
In the morning, today's air show officially started. In the press area, all the reporters were ready, but they hadn't started shooting yet, and there were no warm-up shots. There was still time, so it started too early, and I didn't know what to shoot.
"Hey, tell me, what is the first mysterious performance today in our notice?" the Weibo reporter asked curiously.
"I don't know, but I guess it's the J20. After all, although the popularity of the J20 is not as high as it was in previous years, you must know that the WS15 has not been completely put into service, so it may be the J20 with a new engine." The reporter from Penguin Video immediately answered.
"Yes, that makes sense."
"Hey, do you think it could be the H-30?" A reporter joined in directly and asked enthusiastically.
"It's unlikely. Although the model has been exhibited a long time ago, it is of no use. We have not even seen a flight test. If such a fighter jet wants to be tested, it is impossible not to conduct a flight test, and the flight test is almost impossible to hide from others."
"That's right. If the test flight has not been carried out, then other aspects are probably unlikely."
"I think there is a 99% possibility that the J20 is equipped with a new engine. After all, the recent political situation is not very good. At this time, it is also possible to show our domestic strength." An official reporter from another live broadcast website said.
"It makes sense to say that, but I don't know what kind of events the J20 will perform today. It is probably various maneuverability capabilities."
These reporters were also convinced, because they couldn't figure out what else to show. Almost all the performance items were related to the Yu Fei aircraft. It couldn't be the Army Airlines, right?
As for helicopters, it is impossible to form absolute air superiority suppression, so even advanced helicopters are unlikely to have any sensational effects.
Of course, if you have a trump card like the H-30 stealth bomber, that shouldn't be a problem.
As the time approached, all reporters immediately turned on their live broadcast equipment.
"Hello, dear viewers, welcome to the 14th Pearl Airshow. Pearl Airshow has been successfully held for 13 times. This one has the most participating countries and participating manufacturers, and just yesterday we got the official notification from the organizer."
"Today we will start a special performance. As for what this performance is, we don't know yet. It is very mysterious. You can post a barrage to guess. If the guess is correct, there will be a mysterious gift for you."
"However, here, the host will give you a guess. I have just discussed it with my colleagues. We all think it should be the J20 equipped with a new engine. After all, there has been news before that the WS15 engine has been officially finalized and produced. It should be the J20 officially equipped with an engine that will be officially unveiled."
The reporter expressed his guess, and most of the guesses on the barrage were also like this. After all, this is the only one in China that seems to be related to the air show, while others, such as the long-rumored stealth bombers such as H-30, are simply impossible.
After all, it takes a lot of time just to test an aircraft like this, and it takes too long for modern aircraft to be finalized, so it is impossible to completely hide it. It is different from before.
No matter what it is, everyone is still looking forward to it, because since it is a new performance, it is nothing more than something new, which means that the country has become stronger, and everyone is naturally looking forward to it.
In this way, with the live broadcast on various live broadcast platforms, the air show currently attracts very high attention.
Next to the press area, various foreign professional visitors and professionals from various exhibitors are here. They are also discussing, wondering what mysterious exhibition China wants to play.
However, everyone is still very interested, because now everyone in the world knows that although China and the United States are not like the various arms races between China and the Soviet Union back then, they are definitely the first objects of comparison in all aspects.
While all the audience were discussing, Jiang Yan Hai had already put on a helmet, and there were actually two J20 fighter jets next to him.
It is indeed the J20 that has been replaced with the latest WS15 engine. Their three fighter jets will take off side by side.
The Phantom under the Jiang Yan Hai uses a rare black paint. Although it is not commonly used and is very conspicuous in the sky, this is an air show, not a battle. You can change the paint as you like.
