China test-flighted the Jiutian, a large military drone capable of deploying swarms, on December 11, 2025.
China successfully test-flighted the Jiutian, a large unmanned aerial vehicle, on December 11, 2025, in Shaanxi Province.
Developed by AVIC, the drone measures 16.35 meters long with a 25-meter wingspan, has a 16-ton takeoff weight, and can carry up to 6,000 kg for 12 hours and 7,000 km.
Designed as an airborne drone carrier, it can deploy swarms of smaller drones, missiles, and loitering munitions.
While primarily highlighted for military applications, it also supports civil uses like cargo delivery and disaster response.
The flight marks a major step in China’s unmanned systems development, though its operational effectiveness in combat remains uncertain.
