Two unmanned aerial vehicles made in Taizhou, Zhejiang province, debuted at the 15th China International Aviation and Aerospace Exhibition, also known as Airshow China, which opened in Zhuhai, Guangdong province, on Nov 12.

The Aerospace CH UAV Co from Taizhou brought the CH-7 drone, which stole the spotlight with its exceptional performance. The drown can reach an altitude of 15,000 meters and fly for up to 16 hours, with strong stealth capabilities and a high survival rate. It is set to have its maiden flight in the first quarter of the upcoming year.

Meanwhile, Beihang Tianyu Changying UAV Technology Co unveiled the Changying-8, the nation's first 6-ton unmanned logistics aircraft made in Taizhou. With a maximum payload of 3.5 tons and a cargo range of up to 2,500 kilometers, the aircraft excels in various core functions, achieving the carrying capacity of an 8-ton manned aircraft.

These innovative drones represent a significant step forward for Taizhou in the development of new quality productive forces and the advancement of the low-altitude economy. The presence of these advanced technologies at the exhibition will attract more international experts and customers to inject new vitality into Taizhou's development, said an authority from the management committee of Taizhou Bay New Area.
