國(guó)產(chǎn)兩棲飛機(jī)海上首飛

Kunlong, China's homegrown AG600 large amphibious aircraft, conducted its first sea-based test flight on Sunday morning, marking a new milestone in the program.

7月26日上午，我國(guó)自主研制的大型水陸兩棲飛機(jī)“鯤龍”AG600成功完成海上首飛，這是該項(xiàng)目的又一里程碑事件。

The AG600 is China's second amphibious aircraft, after the SH-5, which was developed in the 1970s for military purposes and has been retired for a long time.

AG600是繼SH-5后我國(guó)第二代的水陸兩棲飛機(jī)。SH-5研發(fā)于上世紀(jì)70年代，用于軍事用途，已退役很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。

With a length of 37 meters and a wingspan of 38.8 meters, the AG600 is roughly the size of a Boeing 737.

AG600兩棲飛機(jī)長(zhǎng)37米，翼展38.8米，尺寸與波音737相當(dāng)。

Powered by four domestically designed WJ-6 turboprop engines, it has a maximum takeoff weight of 53.5 metric tons.

AG600由四臺(tái)國(guó)產(chǎn)渦槳-6渦輪螺旋槳發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)提供動(dòng)力，最大起飛重量達(dá)53.5噸。

These specifications make it the world's biggest amphibious aircraft, surpassing Japan's ShinMaywa US-2 and Russia's Beriev Be-200.

這些規(guī)格使其超過(guò)日本的新明US-2和俄羅斯的別-200，成為世界上最大的水陸兩棲飛機(jī)。

Once in service, it will put an end to the absence of a large rescue aircraft in China and will be very useful in the national emergency rescue and disaster relief systems.

一旦投入使用，AG600將填補(bǔ)我國(guó)大型救援飛機(jī)方面的空白，成為國(guó)家應(yīng)急搶險(xiǎn)救援救災(zāi)體系中的重要航空裝備。
