Recently, AVIC XAC Commercial Aircraft Co., Ltd. in Yanliang District, Xi'an, has completed the first prototype of the independently developed Xinzhou-Honghu HH-200 commercial drone. This milestone marks a significant breakthrough in China’s "low-altitude + logistics" sector, providing a new solution for diverse applications, including transportation and emergency support.

The aircraft boasts a service life of 30,000–50,000 flight hours, exceptional durability with 15,000 flight takeoffs and landings, and a stable transport capacity of 12 million tons throughout its full lifecycle.

"Our product features a large cargo space, high payload capacity, and extended range. Its modular design adapts to various scenarios, including ground handling and aerial deliveries, while remaining compatible with all standard ground support equipment—maximizing customer savings."

Wang Weiwei, Senior Project Manager of the Drone Project

"Based on current data, the Xinzhou-Honghu 200 unmanned transport system delivers a 2.5-fold increase in payload and a 1.5-fold increase in range compared to the Xinzhou-Honghu 100. Upon its future launch, this advancement will significantly elevate the low-cost development of China's large commercial payload drones, fostering the healthy growth of the nation's unmanned transport sector."

The Xinzhou-Honghu HH-200 drone features all-domain flight capability, operating across major continents and within 800 kilometers of coastlines. With strong environmental adaptability and a short takeoff/landing distance under 500 meters, it is fully compatible with all general aviation airports.

The drone also provides comprehensive functional coverage, including emergency material delivery, airdrops, firefighting, and environmental control. Its capabilities can also be extended to specialized operations such as agricultural tasks and remote sensing.
