China’s new unmanned war drone has successfully taken its maiden flight.
The WJ-700 armed reconnaissance drone can fly at altitudes of up to 12,000 metres (39,000 feet), has an endurance of 20 hours and can reach speeds up to 700km/h.
The aircraft is said to be able to create a new pattern for drone combat, and first appeared as a prototype at Airshow China 2018.
It is capable of surveillance over the sea or land, early warning, anti-shipping, anti-radiation, signals intelligence, and jamming.
