China’s Zhuhai air show will this year highlight a range of counter-drone systems and some of the country’s most cutting-edge unmanned aerial vehicles performing in a new demonstration area.
The biannual air show, the country’s biggest, is a much-watched event that features displays of China’s civilian and military aircraft for international buyers.
The event is co-hosted by the Guangdong provincial government and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force and is organised by the Zhuhai municipal government.
