國產兩棲飛機海上首飛

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，我國自主研製的大型水陸兩棲飛機“鯤龍”AG600成功完成海上首飛，這是該項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後我國第二代的水陸兩棲飛機。SH-5研發於上世紀70年代，用於軍事用途，已退役很長時間。

With a length of 37 meters and a wingspan of 38.8 meters, the AG600 is roughly the size of a Boeing 737.
AG600兩棲飛機長37米，翼展38.8米，尺寸與波音737相當。

Powered by four domestically designed WJ-6 turboprop engines, it has a maximum takeoff weight of 53.5 metric tons.
AG600由四臺國產渦槳-6渦輪螺旋槳發動機提供動力，最大起飛重量達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.
這些規格使其超過日本的新明US-2和俄羅斯的別-200，成爲世界上最大的水陸兩棲飛機。

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將填補我國大型救援飛機方面的空白，成爲國家應急搶險救援救災體系中的重要航空裝備。
