Developed by the AVIC First Aircraft Institute, the TP500 is the country's first large unmanned freighter produced under the Chinese Civil Aviation Regulation requirements, said the AVIC.
The TP500 is a general-purpose unmanned transport platform with a large load. Its maximum range is 1,800 km.
The freighter can transport cargo to as far as 500 km, carrying the standard 500 kg load, said the AVIC.
