   The first export batch of the new Chinese Wing Loong II attack unmanned aerial vehicle is at the Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group (part of AVIC Aviation Industry Corporation) in Chengdu.

   The difference between the second modification of the drone and the first was a large takeoff weight (4,200 versus 1,100 kg), a wingspan (20.5 versus 14 meters), the length of the fuselage (11 versus 9.05 meters), height (4.1 versus 2.7 meters), maximum flight altitude (9,000 versus 5,000 meters) as well as flight duration (32 versus 20 hours) and maximum flight speed (340 versus 280 km / h). Where the drones are exported is not reported.

   A photo of a new Chinese reconnaissance mini-helicopter drone has been released.

  It is reported that system includes a docking station for two drones (it also protects them during carrying), as well as a handheld remote control with a touchscreen and controller. The drone is equipped with an HD-resolution daytime video camera and a thermal imager.

   The Russian heavy attack drone S-70 "Okhotnik" bombed a ground target at the Ashuluk range as part of flight tests, a source in the military-industrial complex told RIA Novosti.

   According to him, "Okhotnik" dropped unguided aerial bombs of 500 kilogram caliber from the inner fuselage compartment. He did not name the date when the bombing took place, but noted that these were not the first tests to destroy ground targets.

   The source stressed that "the newest sighting and navigation system installed on the Okhotnik makes it possible to use free-falling ammunition with an accuracy approaching that of a high-precision guided weapon." "Hunter", according to the interlocutor, is capable of autonomously hitting ground stationary and mobile targets with previously known coordinates, including when receiving external target designation in the air.
