At the air show in the city of Changchun, the Chinese army introduced the Wuzhen-8 (WZ-8) unmanned aerial vehicle.
As Ukrinform reports with reference to gagadget.com, the drone can be used for reconnaissance and can fulfill the role of a kamikaze drone.
“China has demonstrated its WZ-8 drone, which can reach speeds of up to 3,700 km/h,” the report says.
It is stated that the drone was first shown as part of an air show in the city of Zhuhai a year ago. So far, China has not disclosed its use and has decided to once again show the drone to the public.
According to the developers, if necessary, the WZ-8 can also be disguised as a high-speed missile, that is, transformed into a kamikaze drone. In this mode of operation, the drone is expected to be able to counter warplanes. Another target of the WZ-8 is aircraft carriers.
According to the news of Ukrinform, Ukrainian powered unmanned aerial vehicles were exhibited at the Teknofest fair held in Samsun, Turkey.
