Sergei Bogdahn, the chief test pilot of Su -57, saw Dongfeng Warrior 917 at first sight.
The 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition is just around the corner, and well-known aviation enterprises, top pilots and air show teams from all over the world gather in Zhuhai. Sergei Bogdahn, a test pilot from Russia, also arrived at the Zhuhai Air Show with the Russian fifth-generation stealth fighter Su -57 numbered 054.
After completing the transition, Hero of the Russian Federation became interested in Dongfeng, the official designated vehicle for this China Air Show, and strongly demanded a test drive at the scene. After circling the field for many times, it was even more difficult to hide his excitement. He held up the model of Dongfeng 917 and called "Brave Man, Hula"!
The fifth generation Russian stealth fighter Su -57 made its debut in China, and the heroic test pilot Sergei Bogdahn, who is over 60 years old and has legendary experience, took on the heavy responsibility of transition and flight performance.
Since graduating from aviation school, Sergei Bogdahn has flown more than 7,000 hours, and mastered the flying skills of more than 50 types and improved aircraft in his career. As the chief test pilot of the fifth-generation fighter of Su -57, he used to fly Su -25UTG and Su -33 aircraft on the "Kuznetsov" aircraft carrier for the test flight of complex subjects. In 2000, Bogdahn was awarded the Medal of Courage, and in 2011, he was awarded the title of Hero of the Russian Federation and the Russian Gold Medal.
As a soldier who has served in Russia for many years, Sergei Bogdahn took a fancy to the official designated car-Dongfeng Warrior 917, which obviously has China’s military origin, at Zhuhai Air Show. From the early EQ240 to the birth of China’s three-generation high-mobility military off-road vehicle "Warrior", Dongfeng Motor has accumulated rich technology and experience in the field of military off-road vehicles.
As a luxury electric off-road vehicle that inherits the profound military gene of Dongfeng Warrior brand, Dongfeng Warrior 917 is the only vehicle in China that has passed the "National Military Standard" (GJB) durability test by drawing lessons from the aesthetic design of military vehicles and adopting a large number of off-road technologies. Dongfeng Warrior 917 put a large number of military-grade technologies on civilian vehicles, such as integrated internal high-pressure longitudinal beam, front and rear double wishbone independent suspension, far-infrared night vision technology, etc. No matter the design concept of "heroic soul" or the powerful off-road performance of global access, Sergei Bogdahn was very surprised and his experience was directly filled.
The 15th China Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition will officially open on November 12th, 2024. The same model "China’s first luxury electric off-road vehicle"-Dongfeng Warrior 917, which is especially loved by Sergei Bogdahn, the chief test pilot of Su -57, will also bring extraordinary new oriental luxury electric off-road experience to Chinese and foreign guests.
