[Written/Observer Network Wang Shichun] There are many countries in the pterosaur 2 to check one unmanned aerial vehicle. Pakistan is one of them.

Although foreign media has been rumored that Pakistan is considering introducing Chinese drones, Pakistan has not confirmed or denied this. If the news of the official account of the Pakistan Air Force is true, then Pakistan will become the largest overseas customer of China's drones, and this will also become the largest foreign trade order for UAVs in the history of China's military trade.

The Pakistan Lions Air Show Team is a special aerobatic performance team of the Pakistan Air Force Academy. The performance team consists of instructors who have spent more than 1,400 hours flying on the campus. It was established on August 17, 1972 and is equipped with K-8 from China. Trainer. The official account is very fond of Chinese weapons, and often publishes the beauty of JF-17 Xiaolong.

Pakistan is not the first to introduce Chinese drones. This is often the case of U.S. drones who have been bombarded by civilians. It is long ago that they hope to obtain a good performance drone drone from China. In March 2015, Pakistan’s “Pegasus” drone was successfully launched. The “Pegasus” drone was Pakistan’s “Rainbow-3” drone authorized by China.

However, the Pakistan Air Force will certainly not meet the low-end foreign trade products that are specifically for export with Rainbow-3. At the 2016 Zhuhai Air Show, China first publicized the full-size model of the pterosaur-2 drone. This performance close to the US military MQ-9's check-in one drone caught the attention of Pakistanis.

The pterosaur 2 is a new long-time reconnaissance and anti-combination multi-purpose UAV system independently developed by China Aviation Industry. It has a length of 11 meters, a wingspan of 20.5 meters, a height of 4.1 meters, and a maximum take-off weight of 4.2 tons. At 480 kg, there are 6 external points for 20 hours of continuous mission life. Its mounted weapons are very diverse, and even the Eagle--9E anti-ship missile can be added.

Previously, the pterosaur type 1 drone was exported to Indonesia, Kazakhstan, the United Arab Emirates and other countries, and has withstood the test of actual combat. The self-contained version of the pterosaur 1 - Attack-1 - also joined the battle sequence of the People's Liberation Army Air Force.

2015年3月,巴基斯坦“飞马”无人机首飞成功,“飞马”无人机是巴基斯坦获得中国授权生产的“彩虹-3”无人机。
【文/观察者网王世纯】惦记翼龙2查打一体无人机的国家挺多,巴基斯坦是其中之一。巴基斯坦“雄狮”飞行表演队官方账号10月6日发布消息称,巴基斯坦航空工业综合体(PAC Kamra)将与中航工业成都飞机工业集团联合生产48架翼龙-2查打一体无人机。

虽然此前外媒一直盛传巴基斯坦考虑引进中国无人机,不过巴基斯坦一直没有确认或否认这一事。如果此次巴基斯坦空军官方账号的消息属实,那么巴基斯坦将成为中国无人机最大的海外客户,同时这也将成为中国军贸史上最大一笔无人机外贸订单。

巴基斯坦雄狮飞行表演队,是巴基斯坦空军学院所属的特技飞行表演队,表演队员全部由该校飞行时间超过1400小时的教官组成,成立于1972年8月17日,装备了来自中国的K-8教练机。该官方账号十分喜欢中国武器,经常发布JF-17枭龙的美图。

巴基斯坦并非首次引进中国无人机,这个经常遭到美国无人机误炸平民很早以前就希望从中国获得一款性能不错的查打一体无人机。2015年3月,巴基斯坦“飞马”无人机首飞成功,“飞马”无人机是巴基斯坦获得中国授权生产的“彩虹-3”无人机。

不过巴基斯坦空军肯定不会满足与彩虹-3这样一款专供出口用的低端外贸产品,在2016年珠海航展上,中国首次公开了翼龙-2无人机的全尺寸模型。这款性能接近美军MQ-9的查打一体无人机引起了巴基斯坦人的注意。

而翼龙2是中国航空工业自主研制的新型长航时侦察打击一体型多用途无人机系统,其机长11米,翼展20.5米,高4.1米,最大起飞重量达到4.2吨,外挂能力为480千克,有6个外挂点,可实现20小时持续任务续航。其挂载武器十分多样化,甚至能加挂鹰击-9E反舰导弹。

此前,翼龙1型无人机曾经出口到印尼,哈萨克斯坦,阿联酋等国家,并且经受过了实战的考验。翼龙1的自用版本——攻击-1,此前也加入了人民解放军空军的作战序列。

Azm project is probably for stealth version of UCAV and fighter aircraft.
@Bilal Khan (Quwa)
AZM is not for stealth version FGFA is for stealth version. AZM is for production capacity building. Media is no literate in Pakistan they report like idiots and have comprehension pro Len.

The Pakistan Air Force drone company should strive to master the core technology. If you can't master all the core technologies, you should at least master some core technologies (even if not necessarily the most advanced).
Don't learn India: Indians take money to buy weapons, and that it is. After the war started and played for three days, the ammunition was exhausted and everything was over.
