Recently, the Chinese Air Force has taken a new move, seven J-10 C fighters flew over the airspace of many countries, flew tens of thousands of kilometers, and finally reached Saudi Arabia in the Middle East. The test flight not only demonstrated China's air power, but also strengthened its defensive ties with a major country like Saudi Arabia and laid a good foundation for future economic and trade exchanges.
The flight was a formidable challenge for both the fighter and the pilot. The J-10C is equipped with a huge auxiliary fuel tank, and when the aircraft is not refueled, it has a maximum flight range of 3200 km. For the first time during this long voyage, the Chinese Air Force used the Y-20 tanker to ensure that it would not be interfered with and reach the target directly. The victory of this test flight shows that the actual combat capability of the Chinese Air Force in actual combat has been improved, and it also proves that air refueling has tended to be perfected.
China has always maintained good relations with Saudi Arabia, and the fact that China has been invited to the "second" defense exhibition and air show held by Saudi Arabia is another example of the close cooperation between China and Saudi Arabia. Our cooperation is not limited to the military, but includes trade and trade. Chinese and industrial products play a pivotal role in the Middle East market, while Saudi Arabia and other Chinese companies with large oil and gas holdings are its biggest buyers.
As the world situation becomes more complex, China's flexion of force is not only a deterrent to a potential enemy, but also a sign of trust in its allies. After such a long distance, the Chinese Air Force has demonstrated to the world its ability to act quickly in the event of future emergencies.
In addition, this flight has opened up a new way to the Chinese aircraft, allowing Chinese fighter jets to quickly reach places such as Africa and Angola. This is not only a mission for the military, but also for civil aviation, such as humanitarian assistance and emergency rescue.
In general, the 10,000-kilometer direct flight of the Chinese Air Force is an epoch-making event, which marks that China has made great progress in national defense science and technology and strategic layout, and also adds a new honor for China in the world. As China continues to expand its influence around the world, such behavior will become more common and will allow the world to see the power of its military.
