From November 12 to 17, the 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition was held in Zhuhai, Guangdong. Amidst the thunderous roar, the heavy carrier based fighter jet J-15T landed steadily in Zhuhai, marking the first appearance of a People's Navy fighter jet at the China Air Show; The exhibition booth of the National Space Administration was crowded with people, and the lunar "local product" retrieved by Chang'e-6, the lunar soil sample on the back of the moon, was exhibited to the domestic public for the first time... At this year's air show, the flight performance was unprecedented, and a batch of "major national heavy weapons" in the aerospace field were showcased, witnessing the leapfrog development capability. From having to fly twice due to insufficient numbers of aircraft for the founding ceremony, to becoming the second country in the world to equip both J-20 and J-35A stealth fighter jets simultaneously, the "Chinese Dream" of a space power has been inserted into the wings of a great power. At the opening ceremony, the globally acclaimed J-35A made its debut with a high elevation angle and a large radius roll, demonstrating excellent maneuverability; The August 1 Air Force Air Show Team performed "six aircraft somersault", "four aircraft overlapping" and other actions, which caused cheers from the audience. The static display area is crowded with people. This year's air show, visitors can board for free and visit China's independently developed 200 ton large transport aircraft Y-20. It sounds incredible to have over 100 adult elephants take off at the same time. And this is approximately equal to the takeoff weight of the Y-20. The body length is 47 meters and the height is 15 meters. The Y-20 "Big Belly" can accommodate tanks and fighter jets; Advanced wing shapes, surging power, and efficient avionics have created this' great national heavy vehicle '. Facing the Yun-20 from afar, it is the first exhibition of cutting-edge weapons and equipment such as the Hong-19 surface to air missile weapon system and the new integrated reconnaissance and strike unmanned aerial vehicle; The "Haolong" cargo space shuttle highlights a breakthrough in the commercial aerospace field, with the potential to achieve reusable and autonomous landing; China Aviation Industry Corporation's domestically produced civil aviation engines have received orders worth over 10 billion yuan, and the "Steel Eagle" has gained more and more "Chinese hearts"... Yang Song, spokesperson for China Aviation Industry Corporation, introduced: "The AEF1200 engine, which made its debut, is the first domestically developed large bypass ratio twin rotor turbofan engine in China, filling the gap in China's aviation power field and providing power for China's large aircraft." The domestically produced eagle soared with its wings. At the air show, a series of unmanned system equipment showcased 'the future is here'. Drones have transformed into "Sky Knights", unmanned ships have staged a "water ballet", and the large unmanned combat boat "Orca" has made a wonderful appearance. The unmanned technology equipment has made the audience feel that "the future has come". In order to implement precise artificial precipitation (snow) on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, high-altitude multidimensional meteorological detection was carried out during Typhoon "Haikui" in 2023, and emergency communication and disaster reconnaissance were carried out during the 2022 Luding earthquake in Sichuan... The domestically produced "Yilong" unmanned aerial vehicle has been widely praised at home and abroad in recent years. Nowadays, China's drone industry is developing rapidly, and it can be said that it is in a leading position globally in both manufacturing and application Li Pei, Director of AVIC (Chengdu) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Systems Co., Ltd., said that by continuously accelerating iterations, more application scenarios will be brought to users. From manned driving to unmanned intelligence, technological breakthroughs demonstrate Kunpeng's ambition. Strolling through the air show, one can feel the technology shining into reality, making life more wonderful. On November 11th, the low altitude express line in the Greater Bay Area made its maiden voyage, and the first batch of passengers who flew arrived in Zhuhai to watch the air show. With the development of low altitude economy, the dream of traveling through the "Sky City" has become a reality, such as flying for transportation and drone logistics delivery. At the air show, various styles of "flying cars" and vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, these new generation of transportation tools, gave people a visual experience of future modes of transportation. The low altitude economy has a trillion dollar market space and great development prospects Chen Bin, the chairman of Wanfeng Group and a manufacturer of civil fixed wing aircraft, said that Chinese private aircraft manufacturers are committed to changing the way humans travel. Aerospace technology is constantly polishing the technological foundation of people's better lives: engine blade monitoring "doctors", maritime rescue positioning experts, Alzheimer's disease integrated non-invasive diagnosis and treatment system... "Through transformation and application, China Electronics Technology Group has developed a series of convenient, practical, and down-to-earth civilian products, bringing aerospace technology to the forefront." China Electronics Technology Group's participating experts said that aerospace technology will empower thousands of industries. Looking back at the past, the China Air Show kicked off in 1996 and has witnessed nearly 30 years of confidence in the aerospace industry. From 8000 square meters to 120000 square meters, more than 1020 companies from 47 countries and regions gathered at the China Airshow this year, with overseas exhibitors increasing by 104% compared to the previous Airshow. Developing the aerospace industry and building a strong aerospace country, we look forward to the moment when our dreams come true! (New Society)
