 "Chinese state-run weapons maker tests drone swarm technology: Report")
A state-run weapons manufacturer in China has tested the technology to launch drone swarm, a concept featuring the simultaneous and coordinated operation of a large number of drones, official media here reported on Monday.
The China Academy of Electronics and Information Technology under the China Electronics Technology Group Corporation recently conducted tests on a fixed-wing drone swarm system, state-run Global Times reported.
During the tests, drones were released from truck-based, 48-unit launchers and from airborne helicopters, the report said.
Capable of deployment from the ground, sea and air, this new tool could play a vital role in challenging missions including amphibious landing operations, the daily quoted analysts as saying.
