Su-57 Pilot Takes a Test Drive of Dongfeng M-Hero 917 at Zhuhai Air Show
The 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition is about to commence, gathering renowned aerospace companies, top pilots, and flight performance teams from around the globe in Zhuhai. Russian pilot Sergey Bogdan, flying the number 054 Russian fifth-generation stealth fighter Su-57, has also arrived at the Zhuhai Air Show.
After completing the transition and landing, this legendary Russian test pilot showed a keen interest in the official designated vehicle of this Chinese air show - the Dongfeng M-Hero 917, and requested a test drive on the spot. After several laps around the venue, he was so excited that he raised the car model of the Dongfeng M-Hero 917 and exclaimed, "Mighty,Ура!."
The Russian fifth-generation stealth fighter Su-57's debut in China was undertaken by the legendary test pilot Sergey Bogdan, who is over sixty years old, for the transition and flight performance tasks.
Over the years, Sergey Bogdan has flown for more than 7000 hours, including nearly 5000 hours of test flights. In his career, he has mastered the flight skills of more than 50 types and improved models of aircraft. As the chief test pilot of the Su-57 fifth-generation fighter, he has flown complex test missions on the "Kuznetsov" aircraft carrier with Su-25UTG and Su-33 aircraft. In 2000, Bogdan was awarded the "Courage" medal, and in 2011, he was awarded the title of Hero of the Russian Federation.
Sergey Bogdan was immediately attracted to the official designated vehicle of the Zhuhai Air Show with Chinese military heritage - the Dongfeng M-Hero 917. From the early EQ240 to the birth of the third generation of high mobility military off-road vehicles "M-Hero", Dongfeng Motors has accumulated rich technology and experience in the field of military off-road vehicles.
As a luxury electric off-road vehicle that inherits the deep military genes of the Dongfeng M-Hero brand, the Dongfeng M-Hero 917 has incorporated military vehicle aesthetic design and a large amount of military vehicle off-road technology. The vehicle has passed the "National Military Standard" (GJB national military standard) durability test. The Dongfeng M-Hero 917 utilizes advanced technologies such as integrated high-pressure beams, front and rear double wishbone independent suspensions, and far-infrared night vision. Whether it's the "Heroic Soul" design concept or the powerful off-road performance across all domains, it has left Sergey Bogdan feeling very impressed, with a full experience.
The 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition will officially open on November 12th, and the "Chinese luxury electric off-road first car" loved by Sergey Bogdan - Dongfeng M-Hero 917, will also bring an extraordinary new experience of Eastern luxury electric off-road to Chinese and foreign guests on site.
