China's homegrown HH-100 unmanned cargo aircraft completed its maiden flight test in northwestern province of Shaanxi on Wednesday, according to the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC).
The commercial cargo drone took off on 09:16 Beijing Time and landed smoothly after a 35-kilometer flight. During the flying test, the systems and equipment of the aircraft operated normally, and the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) maintained stable attitude and good state.
After the latest success of the maiden flight, the HH-100 will enter the scientific research test flight stage from the ground test stage.
"This aircraft adopts a universal and modular design, enabling a versatile platform, and we can hang different mission modules to fulfill logistics transportation tasks. In the future, the aircraft will facilitate an air highway enabling cargo flows in all directions," said Chen Lei, chief designer of the civil UAV project at AVIC Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group Company.
The HH-100, independently developed by the AVIC, boasts low cost, large tonnage and high payload. It will be mainly used in feeder logistics, and can also participate in forest and grassland firefighting, fire monitoring, rescue materials transportation and delivery, relay communication and artificial rain enhancement.
Based on the system platform of this type of aircraft, series products of 5 tons, 10 tons and above will be developed in the future to meet the customers' needs for large-scale, intelligent, low-cost, and high reliability unmanned cargo planes.
