The Political Work Department of the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) released a propaganda video on September 19 and in the video, the H-6K bomber from the 28th Air Regiment was shown launching a missile strike on Andersen Air Force Base, Guam.

The Chinese propaganda video borrows heavily from Hollywood and depicts an airstrike on an island some observers say resembles the US base in Guam.

The presentation suggests that it was produced as a warning to any country of base within the strike range of the bombers.

China Electric Land and Air Cooperative Fixed-wing UAV "Swarm" System

Recently, the Electric Power Research Institute of China Electronics Technology Group has carried out related test flights of the land-air coordinated fixed-wing UAV "Swarm" system, verifying the land-launch and aerial launch of the fixed-wing UAV "Swarm" to carry out ground-to-ground Various mission capabilities such as inspection and strike, precision strike.

Compared with rotary-wing/multi-rotor UAVs, fixed-wing UAVs have the advantages of fast speed and long flight time, and are the first choice for UAV equipment in various countries. However, the technical difficulty of the fixed-wing UAV "Swarm" is much higher than that of the rotary/multi-rotor UAV "Swarm". It is understood that the world record for the number of rotary-wing/multi-rotor drones “swarming” exceeds 3000, while the world record for the number of fixed-wing drones “swarming” is only 200, and these 200 fixed-wing drones The world record of "bee colony" was also set by the team of the China Electric Power Research Institute in November 2017.

The land-air coordinated fixed-wing drone “swarm” system disclosed this time is my country’s first practical drone “swarm”, which demonstrates the rapid deployment of vehicles, dense launches, hovering in the air, mobile launching, and precision. Full-process mission capabilities such as formation, formation change, ground inspection, and precision strike.

Today's sci-fi is tomorrow's technology. The CG fragment of the drone "Swarm" that exploded in the movie "Angel Fall" in 2019 became a reality in the China Electric Power Research Institute, one year later!
