A large unmanned aircraft "Sky Sentry" developed by the 38th Institute of China Electronic science and Technology Corporation(CETC) made a successful maiden flight in Pucheng Airport in Shanxi Province.

The "Sky Sentry" is the largest drone that can take off and land autonomously in China. Through the innovative integrated design of radar load and a flight platform, the efficiency of its system structure and overall performance has been improved.

The "Sky Sentry" made a huge impact and represents the future of the air warning system.

Chips in focus of China's drone sector's development: expert

China, which is the world's second-largest country in the development and application of drones, must tackle the issue of domestically developed chips to meet exponential demand in the market, an industry expert said on Sunday.

The comment was made amid rising trade tensions between China and the US and the latter's stated intention to maintain its technological lead.

China's industrial-grade drone market is huge and Chinese drone makers do need to import some components to produce industrial-grade drones, which have high precision requirements, according to Zhang Baoxin, an expert at China Aviation News.

"Many Chinese companies are looking for substitutes for US-made drone parts, and domestic manufacturing has achieved breakthroughs so that US-made parts are replaced in some models of general-purpose drones," Zhang said.

According to industry estimates, China's drone market will reach 13.4 billion yuan ($1.93 billion) in scale by 2018.

Zhou Huanbo, chairman of Beijing Fudi surveying Co, said at an industry symposium that China is the No.2 country after the US in the research, development and use of drones.

"Drones are used for security, surveying, and crop protection and environmental protection," Zhou told the Global Times on Saturday.

But gaps remain in theoretical areas such as flight control and chips, Zhou said. "A great many chips were imported from the US."

The huge market has attracted massive investment and drawn a good number of companies into the industry. Some companies are making mature chips and batteries at a reduced cost, Zhang said.

However, as drones transmit more and more data, the sector will need superior chips performing at about 100 times the capacity of today's models, and that will be China's next focus in the field, Zhang said.

The Chinese Academy of Aerospace and Aerodynamics (CAAA) under the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp (CASC) on Wednesday revealed the CH-10 tilt-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

The CH-10 is a new unmanned aerial vehicle integrating helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft technology, according to a statement sent exclusively to the Global Times on Wednesday.

Like a helicopter, the drone can take off and land vertically and hover in the air, while as a fixed-wing aircraft, it cruises rapidly and travels a long distance. The shift of flight modes is done through the tilting rotor, the academy said.

Song Zhongping, a military expert and TV commentator, told the Global Times on Wednesday that the CH-10 pioneers in using tilt-rotor technology, noting that the US-made Osprey also uses a tilt-rotor, but it is manned.

As an unmanned platform capable of both reconnaissance and battle, the main mission of the CH-10 is to accompany large- and medium-sized naval ships or army forces and to conduct intelligence missions, including reconnaissance, detection, communications relay, search, target identification, and relay guidance, the statement said.

It can take off and land on medium and large destroyers and frigates, it said.

The development of the CH-10 will also provide invaluable experience for China to develop its manned tilt-rotor aircraft, Song noted.

The CH-10 will be featured at next week's Airshow China 2018 in Zhuhai, South China's Guangdong Province.
