China: CH-4 UAV live-ammunitions tests completed

CH 4 UAV live ammunitions tests completed

The effectiveness of all guided weapons, either laser- or satellite- guided, can be seriously affected by weather conditions such as smog or jamming by the enemy. However, the CH-4 drone has demonstrated it can surmount these problems. The new technologies successfully tested on the drone will be applied to the next generation of CH-4.

Thanks to its multiple mount points design, the CH-4 can carry various weapons and shoot different types of guided missiles under different weather conditions, meeting the standards of a surgical strike. For example, it can guide 50-kilogram cluster bombs in order to effectively complete missions including regional blockades and attacks on enemy airports. The 50-kilogram satellite-guided bombs can also deal a deadly blow on the enemy position from higher airspace, while the 100-kilogram satellite-guided weapon can launch surprise attacks on targets from more than 10 kilometers away.
