According to the announcements of the Chinese media after reaching full operation, Jiu Tian will release huge swarms of drones that will work together to overpower the enemy air defense systems. The jet drone will first undergo a series of tests before it is fully implemented by the Chinese air force.
Detailed information that Euronews cites, indicates that “Dron-Mattka” can transfer to six tons of ammunition and smaller drones, and its maximum range is 7,000. kilometers.
According to an article published in South China Morning Post, the new Chinese “Dron-Mattka” is perceived as a rival for recognized American models such as RQ-4 Global Hawk and MQ-9 Reaper.

Jiu Tian is the latest addition to the rapidly developing Chinese arsenal of advanced drone technology, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are becoming more and more necessary on the modern battlefield.
As Euronews explains, Jiu Tian was designed by the state -owned company Aviation Industry Corporation of China and built by XI'an Chida Aircraft Parts Manufacturing.
The manufacturer claims that the design of Jiu Tian allows the drone to perform several different functions, such as high -level transport, defense of borders and rescue operations.

Recordings available on the Internet cause mixed reactions. Some people see a threat in a new Chinese machine that can seriously affect the ways of hosting or military operations.
In turn, others pay attention to the coarseness of the structure. “This is a giant magnet for bullets. It's just a classic propaganda “ – commented on social media a retired pilot of the US Air Force, whose words are cited by “The New York Post”.
The reactions are also provided by information provided by the Chinese media that “drone-mate” is “aimed at room”. Which seems to be surprising in the light of multiple threats of Taiwan annexation.
China perceives democratically ruled Taiwan as a separatist province that must be under the control of the continent, if necessary with force.
