CAIG Wing Loong I
ОБЗОР СИСТЕМЫ
The Wing Loong I is a Chinese medium-altitude long-endurance (MALE) unmanned aerial vehicle produced by AVIC, broadly comparable to the American MQ-1 Predator. With a 14 m wingspan and 1,150 kg maximum takeoff weight, it carries up to 200 kg of weapons including AR-1 anti-tank missiles and LS-6 guided bombs. Bangladesh operates Wing Loong I in the ISR and light strike roles, providing persistent surveillance over border regions and maritime approaches. The relatively low acquisition and operating cost made it an accessible entry point for MALE UAS capability.

Main gun accuracy at extended range requires stabilization and fire control maturity that few systems achieve.

Network integration allows this platform to function as a sensor node as much as a strike platform.
