The newly created hypersonic drone of the People's Republic of China has been compared with the most aerodynamically advanced fighter of the United States. Many experts give this characteristic to the American F-22 aircraft.

The South China Morning Post (SCMP) newspaper gives its comparative description of the new technology, referring to the opinion of Beijing scientists.

Journalists claim that as a result of the tests, the drone demonstrated more advanced aerodynamic properties compared to the "American". In contrast, the Chinese device is capable of performing complex maneuvers even at high altitudes, where the air is very thin. This creates serious problems for air defense systems, since in this case they are unable to predict the trajectory of the target in order to destroy it.

During the test flights, it turned out that the aerodynamic efficiency of the drone significantly exceeds this indicator of the F-22 fighter. In subsonic flight, this coefficient is approximately the same for both machines – 8.4. But at a speed of Mach 6, the aerodynamic quality of the UAV – 4, whereas a fighter from the United States has this at Mach 1.5.

Thus, according to the Hong Kong media, the Chinese drone, the name and technical characteristics of which are not disclosed, successfully challenged the best examples of American military aviation.

Earlier, the head of the press service of the Chinese Embassy in the United States, Liu Pengyu, spoke negatively about the supply of American weapons to Taiwan. He said Washington was turning the island into a "powder keg."
