Cha da Type UAV — CYQJ-30
1. Product Overview
The CYQJ-30 Basic Type is an export-oriented UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) integrated with tactical reconnaissance and strike capabilities. As a heavy-payload, long-endurance, vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) compound UAV system, it features advanced payload integration and reliable operation performance, suitable for multiple critical mission scenarios.
2. R&D Progress & Production Plan
- R&D Initiation: The development of the CYQJ-30 system started in July 2020.
- Key Milestone: In April 2021, the UAV achieved an altitude breakthrough of 6,000 meters for the first time.
- Current Stage: The system is now in the finalization phase, undergoing reliability flight verification and environmental adaptability tests.
- Prototype Status: The preliminary experimental prototype is conducting flight verification at the designated target range. A contract for the project has been signed.
- Production Plan: Large-scale production will be launched upon the completion of finalization.

5. Navigation, Control & Launch
5.1 Navigation System
- Adopts a Beidou (BDS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) integrated autonomous navigation system.
5.2 Control System
- Equipped with a dual-mode seeker, consisting of a television camera and an uncooled infrared sensor.
- Before the seeker locks onto the target: The UAV/missile relies on inertial navigation (integrated with supporting equipment and communication systems) for flight control.
- During the mission (before reaching the target): The operator can adjust the flight direction of the missile at any time via the real-time data link.
5.3 Launch Mode
- Catapult launch.
5.4 Data Transmission
- Utilizes satellite communication and air-to-air relay systems for telemetry data transmission, ensuring stable and real-time data exchange.
6. Operational Applications
The CYQJ-30 UAV System can perform the following tasks and is deployed in corresponding fields:
- Core Tasks: Emergency command communication, real-time disaster reconnaissance, rapid 3D modeling, personnel search and positioning, tactical reconnaissance, and strike operations.
- Deployment Fields: Emergency communication support, surveillance and monitoring, disaster relief operations, and tactical mission execution.
