China has successfully demonstrated take-off and landing operations of its Y-5U utility and transport unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

中国成功展示了其运-5U型多用途和运输无人机（UAV）的起降操作。

 

The Y-5U is an unmanned version of the Shijiazhuang Aircraft Industry Company Y-5B biplane transport aircraft. In a statement on its English-language website in March, the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) said that the UAV conducted a successful round-trip flight between airports in Inner Mongolia in January. AVIC added that the UAV flew between Moqi General Airport and Arongqitongyong General Airport.

运-5U型是石家庄飞机工业公司运-5B型双翼运输机的无人驾驶版本。3月，中国航空工业集团公司（中航工业）在其英文网站上发表声明称，该无人机于1月在内蒙古各机场之间成功进行了往返飞行。中航工业补充说，这架无人机在莫旗尼尔基通用机场和阿荣通用机场之间飞行。

 

Using satellite imagery, Janes has assessed that the two airports are roughly 85 km apart.

利用卫星图像，简氏估计这两个机场相距约85公里。

 

The corporation said that the flight test was divided into two sorties: On 3 January, the Y-5U successfully took off from Moqi Airport and landed at Arongqitongyong Airport. The aircraft subsequently took off from Arongqitongyong on 4 January and returned to Moqi Airport.

该公司表示，飞行测试分为两个架次：1月3日，Y-5U从莫旗尼尔基通用机场成功起飞，并降落在阿荣通用机场。这架飞机随后于1月4日从阿荣通用机场起飞，返回莫旗尼尔基通用机场。
