Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Type 2 Tactical Loitering UAV System?

The Type 2 Tactical Loitering UAV System is a compact fixed-wing UAV platform designed for professional defense, reconnaissance, surveillance, and field operation scenarios. It features a foldable airframe design, reliable flight performance, and flexible mission payload capacity for B2B customers who need a portable tactical UAV solution. With a range of 120 km or above, endurance of 60 minutes or above, and mission payload capacity of 5 kg or above, the Type 2 provides a practical balance between portability, endurance, payload capability, and deployment flexibility.

What category does the Type 2 UAV belong to?

The Type 2 belongs to the category of Defense & Tactical UAVs, with a more specific classification under Loitering UAV Systems and Foldable Fixed-Wing UAVs. Unlike multirotor drones, the Type 2 uses a fixed-wing aerodynamic structure, which allows better flight efficiency, longer range, and higher cruising speed. Its foldable structure also makes it easier to transport, store, and deploy in field operation environments.

What are the main applications of the Type 2 Tactical Loitering UAV?

The Type 2 Tactical Loitering UAV System is suitable for professional B2B and defense-related applications, including reconnaissance, surveillance, perimeter monitoring, field operation support, security observation, and mission-focused UAV deployment. It is especially suitable for customers looking for a foldable fixed-wing UAV with longer range, practical payload capacity, and easier transportation compared with larger fixed-wing UAV platforms.

What are the key performance specifications of the Type 2 UAV?

The Type 2 Tactical Loitering UAV has a maximum takeoff weight of 15 kg or above and a mission payload capacity of 5 kg or above. It supports a maximum flight speed of 140-160 km/h, a maximum range of 120 km or above, and an endurance of 60 minutes or above. The UAV can operate at an altitude range of 100-3000 m, with a communication distance of 30 km or above. These specifications make it a practical tactical fixed-wing UAV for reconnaissance, surveillance, and field operation scenarios.

What makes the Type 2 UAV different from larger fixed-wing UAVs?

The key advantage of the Type 2 UAV is its foldable airframe design. Its fuselage length is 1300 mm or above excluding the motor, and its wingspan is 1800 mm or above. After folding, the maximum diameter is 180 mm or below, and the maximum folded length is 1800 mm or below. This makes the Type 2 easier to transport and store than many traditional fixed-wing UAVs, while still providing strong range, endurance, and payload capability for tactical and professional applications.

Can the Type 2 UAV support payload customization?

Yes. The Type 2 UAV supports a mission payload of 5 kg or above, and the payload configuration can be customized according to customer requirements. Depending on the project, the UAV platform can support different mission modules, communication equipment, sensor systems, tracking devices, or customer-specific payload interfaces. Before quotation, we recommend confirming the payload type, weight, integration method, and operating scenario.

What operating environments can the Type 2 UAV support?

The Type 2 Tactical Loitering UAV is designed for field operation environments. It supports an operating temperature range from -20°C to +50°C, a storage temperature range from -10°C to +70°C, and a relative humidity condition of 70% or below. Actual performance may vary depending on payload configuration, wind conditions, altitude, mission profile, and communication environment. For project-based procurement, customers can share their operating conditions so that we can recommend a suitable configuration.

What trade terms do you support for international orders?

For international B2B orders, we currently support FOB and CIF trade terms only. FOB means the buyer arranges international freight after the goods are delivered to the agreed port of shipment. CIF means we arrange freight and insurance to the agreed destination port. At this stage, we do not support DDP, DAP, EXW, or door-to-door delivery terms. For an accurate quotation, please provide your destination port, order quantity, required configuration, payload requirements, and any customization needs.
