The Chengdu Wing Loong II is an unmanned, remotely controlled aerial vehicle designed by Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group in People's Republic of China. It is classified as GJ-2 in the military. The Chengdu Wing Loong II is used for military trials, as well as civilian applications. It was awarded many awards since its inception, including an international patent for the first civilian drone.

Its flight endurance is listed at 27 hours, although the Chinese company did not provide the number of flights it completed during testing. The Wing Loong 2 is not only suitable for military purposes, but can also be used to capture aerial photos, film, and even as surveillance tools. China doesn't make public its military capabilities.

Caihong 5

China is fast becoming a major supplier UAVs that can strike. From 2008 to 2018, China sold 181 drones to 13 nations, over three-fourths of which were strike capable systems. The popular Wing Loong series and the Caihong series accounted for respective 35.4% and 53.6% of the total. The new CH-5 will likely continue this trend to challenge the UAVs in the United States of America and Israel.

Caihong 5 features a radome nose, upward-pointing Vtail and a radome tail. The Caihong 5 is capable of flying at a height greater than that of the gasoline-powered piston engines, which can reach 7,200 meters. The heavy fuel engine also reduces fuel consumption by about 20%, making it more cost-effective to operate. China's Caihong5 drone is the most heavy ever built.


Wing Loong 1E

Wing-Loong-1E is the newest member of the Wing Loong family large unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) families. This multi-purpose, strike-capable UAV recently flew its maiden flight. Although AVIC did no release technical details, a prototype has been demonstrated at the China International Aviation & Aerospace Exhibition. It has a unique aerodynamic design with upward-pointing wingslets.

The new Wing Loong-1E China drone is made in Chengdu, a city in Sichuan province. This factory specializes in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAVs) and is a sign that China is interested in producing its own drones. The Wing Loong 1E may be smaller than its predecessor but will offer greater durability and superior aerodynamics. Expect the new drone to be more reliable, longer-lasting, and efficient.

Wing Loong II

The Wing Loong II Chinese UAV is being considered to be a potential replacement for the MQ-1 Predator. According to the company, the country expressed an interest in purchasing 300 unmanned aircraft. Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are also interested in the Chinese drone. They have already agreed to produce 48 units together. Before these nations buy a Wing Loong II, however, it's important to evaluate its suitability for military purposes.
