Algerian Air Force WJ-700 armed reconnaissance UAV, appears in the skies of Algeria for the first time, as part of the military parade commemorating the November 1st Revolution.
The drone was mentioned in the minute 2:18:00 , but the camera missed it.
The WJ-700 is around 10 units as a first test deal worth $145 million, as well as a deal for 20 CH-4 Enhanced UAVs worth $100 million, which is the third order of the same UAV, both deals for the same customer who acquired a Chinese satellite communications satellite in 2018 (Algeria, of course). Algeria also has an order for 24 WING LOONG-2 UAVs in the process of being implemented.
With 10 WJ-700s, 10 Anka-Ss, 24 Wing Loong 2s, around 40 CH-4Bs and an unknown number of Yabhon United 40/20s, Algeria operates the largest fleet of armed drones on the African continent.
