On October 29, the first unmanned aerial vehicle of the He-1A type produced by Shangji Weising Zhongxing Aviation Technology HE-1A was created for inter-regional transport. Maximum weight - 4 tons, payment - 2 tons. More than half of the plane's weight is cargo. For a UAV of this class, this is a very high figure. In September 2024 he made his first flight. Now the design is fully developed. According to the plan, the machine will appear at the Joey air show in December, before the end of the year the first flight will appear in a serial configuration, and at the end of 2027 it should receive an airworthiness certificate. The plant in Volnan covers 50 thousand square meters, and already has three production lines. At full capacity, it will be able to produce more than 100 drones per year. Contracts have already been signed for 110 vehicles. The company attracted 5.3 billion yuan of investment. The team includes specialists who participated in the creation of heavy military transport "Yun-20" and C919 passengers. Design is carried out in Xian, assembly is carried out in Waynan, cooperation is carried out throughout the country. At the same time, the company is developing a line. HE-2 is a transport UAV with a weight of 5 tons and a payload of 22.5 tons with the possibility of dropping cargo from the tail. HE550 is a large aircraft with a hybrid power plant: weight of about 2 tons, payload of at least 500 kg. China has succeeded in bringing the unmanned commercial transport company into mass production. It closes a big gap in middle-class cargo aviation, gives Shanghai province a full production circle, and sets the stage for the world's low-end market. @china3army.
