Chinese UAVs News & Discussions

Official trailer.
The Jiutian UAV will be tested in June this year.

Trailer highlights.
The Jiutian UAV can carry hundreds of Loitering Munition or small UAVs...it can be called an airborne UAV carrier.

@FuturePAF maybe this is what you guys are looking for in the other thread, swarm drones with ai application and strong countermeasure launched from the sky and ground.

A modification of the Z-10 or Z-19 to add a section for airborne UAV launchers could make it an innovative product. The Z-19 with a MMW radar could map the threats and control a two way data link to knock out dozens of targets.

launch from 15km is a huge boast in range, and intergraded into paf eco system is the key.

AI and countermeasure is the key, not the drones and the carrier platform.

Mobility is also important, especially if limited assets are in hand. Either the whole domain is prepared for battle and you can afford multiple drones or you have more mobile platforms and don’t need as many drones.

We will have to see what strategy is employed.

Seems to be what Anduril is also doing in the US. Their platforms (drones or interceptors) were bought off other startups. Their original product is their AI; Lattice.

They are also going big in EW.

It's quite different, the one you posted is a cca drone contender for their sixth gen program, this is the job of SAC and CAC in my country, and according to the chief designer of J-36, unlike US approach like how they introduced in the video, commercial engine, cheap landing gear etc, easier for mass production and lower cost but our cca drone are expensive unmanned fighter jet, eliminating all human factors and shares parts, kits with manned platform, J36, J50.

“《航空学报》今年刊载的王海峰总师另一篇论文《高性能协同作战无人机的发展与思考》,就重点解答了这种先进无人机需要与有人机通盘考量的问题,例如:“以通用化、系列化、组合化为目标对机上设备和地面保障设备进行自顶而下的统型设计,减少保障资源规模。机上设备组件的通用化设计,使得备件可在不同机型间进行互换或兼容”。

以上内容从系统内部的通用保障、面对强敌如何完成任务的两个方面,解答了为什么我们的“强军僚机”是从一开始就迥异于强敌“忠诚僚机”概念的高端机种。通过省略飞行员及其配套系统在空战中彻底实现无忧虑机动、免除人为错误对完成任务的影响,这是“强军僚机”最为核心的优势,而像压榨配置这等“为了廉价而廉价”的做法,则不应成为研制过程中的干扰因素。”

Currently, PLA's manned platforms are dominated by the Z-20 platform. We have developed many helicopters for different purposes on top of the Z-20 platform. Armed Attack, Air Assault, Air Rescue, Shipboard, Anti-Submarine, etc., as well as various variants for civilian use. The versatility of the platform is very conducive to the development of the industry.

For small and medium helicopter platforms such as the Z-10/Z-19, it seems that the PLA doesn't have much interest in continuing development. Their performance overlaps with or is even lower than many of PLA's current UAV helicopters/STOVL UAVs.PLA seems to be more interested in these UAVs.

Of course, they should be able to continue development of the Z-10/Z-19 platforms if there are enough orders from the foreign trade market to justify it. But at the moment there isn't.

What I meant was a Chinese “Comanche” should be studied as a launch platform for these loitering munitions.

For Loitering Munition ?
The Jiutian UAV can carry over 100 Loitering Munitions.

China is now using a platform design for its weaponry. This is more conducive to mass production, use and maintenance, and at the same time, they cost less.

Any weaponry serves the war effort. Different countries have completely different war concepts and thinking logic.

To take out a machine gun bunker, China, the US, Russia, or even any country, they use completely different methods. There is no need for us to necessarily design our weaponry according to the American mindset.

These AI swarm drones are capable of auto decision-making under intense electro-interference, reorganizing formations, searching for & engaging enemies without relying on remote control.
In essence, they are Terminators.
AI has become the most critical tech in modern warfare.

It is equipped with four small phased-array radars and a 12-cell small VLS, which can carry 12 small anti-aircraft missiles.
