On July 30, 2017, during the third rehearsal lineup for the 90th anniversary parade of the People's Liberation Army, the fourth contingent of Party members from theä¿¡æ¯åŒ–combat group unveiled a domestically produced new anti-radiation drone to the public for the first time. While similar to Israel’s "Habil" drone in function, the latest Chinese-made anti-radiation drone outperforms its Israeli counterpart in both technological sophistication and operational capability.
The term "anti-radiation drone" refers to a suicide drone specifically designed to neutralize enemy radars and communication ground stations. Its mode of operation involves autonomous flight post-launch, ascending to a cruising altitude where it loiters over the target area. Utilizing onboard sensors, the drone identifies, tracks, and locks onto enemy radar signals, initiating a steep dive to strike and destroy the antenna or primary components of the targeted equipment. Compared to traditional anti-radiation missiles, these drones are more cost-effective and provide extended endurance on the battlefield, making them ideal for targeting stealthy and mobile radar facilities.
China's journey into anti-radiation drones began with the acquisition of Israel’s renowned "Habil" drones early this century. Through reverse engineering and innovation based on this technology, Chinese engineers developed the first domestically produced anti-radiation drones, filling a critical gap in this field. Over time, advancements in drone technology allowed for significant improvements in design and functionality, culminating in the creation of a superior generation of anti-radiation drones. These new models have not only matched but surpassed the performance of the original "Habil" drones in terms of technical specifications. At the Abu Dhabi Defense Exhibition earlier this year, AVIC showcased the export version of this drone, the ASN-301, and now the domestically used variant has also been publicly displayed during military parades.
In terms of appearance, the new anti-radiation UAV system features a mobile launch platform design. Mounted on a highly mobile 6×6 military truck, it carries six integrated launch boxes arranged in two rows of three. During deployment, the launch boxes are slightly tilted upward. Each integrated launch box contains not only a new type of anti-radiation drone but also ancillary systems like the take-off ejection mechanism and guide rails. The entire drone launching process is fully automated, allowing control personnel in the mobile launcher to issue commands directly or transmit instructions via a radio command system.
The specific details of the domestically used anti-radiation drone remain undisclosed, but based on the foreign trade ASN-301 model, we can deduce several key features. The aircraft adopts a delta-wing configuration with a small aspect ratio and a rounded nose section housing optical glass, providing ample space for radio detection and photonic equipment. The drone employs a compact aerodynamic design, featuring four folding side wings that enable precise turns without banking, enhancing both accuracy and precision during attacks.
One particularly innovative aspect is the implementation of direct force turning technology, which allows for sharp maneuvers without relying on banking actions. This reduces deviations in flight path and improves final hit accuracy, showcasing the advanced engineering behind this drone. Additionally, the drone incorporates a high-performance anti-radiation radar seeker with exceptional tracking accuracy, further enhancing its effectiveness against moving targets.
The new anti-radiation drone boasts several standout technical characteristics. Firstly, it offers extended operational range and prolonged loitering time, thanks to a tail-mounted propeller engine that ensures over four hours of flight time at a maximum speed of 220 km/h and a mission radius exceeding 280 km. Secondly, its detection and sensor suite is multifunctional, combining anti-radiation receivers with advanced optical video reconnaissance and real-time image transmission capabilities. This dual-mode approach ensures reliable target identification even under conditions of electronic warfare, such as jamming or radar shutdowns.
Moreover, the drone exhibits enhanced data-link management and human-in-the-loop control compared to earlier models like "Habil." The integration of a sophisticated guidance system improves both accuracy and resistance to electronic interference. Finally, the drone’s anti-radiation radar seeker demonstrates unprecedented tracking precision, ensuring optimal performance against dynamic targets.
Reports from international media suggest that the People's Liberation Army has already begun deploying these drones, though official confirmation remains pending. The public unveiling of parade-ready anti-radiation drones signifies that China’s armed forces are now equipped with mature technology and the necessary expertise to deploy such systems effectively. These drones represent a formidable threat to high-value targets such as enemy air defense radar networks and command centers, underscoring China’s growing prowess in unmanned warfare.
