The video released from Algeria TV shows that Lieutenant General Salah has inspected a rainbow-4 (CH-4) and Rainbow-3 (CH-3) inspected by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Group 11 in a hangar. Man-machine.

Interestingly, in this drone hangar, Algerian drone pilots painted their own rainbow drones on the walls, showing their love for this modern weaponry from China. . In addition, the base officer also introduced the new hangar and runway construction of the rainbow drone to Lieutenant General Salah and showed the model of the drone base.

According to Algerian news reports, these drones arrived in the country in September 2018, and based on this, two squadrons of unmanned aerial vehicles were built.

After visiting the rainbow drone, Lieutenant General Salah immediately organized a joint exercise of multiple aircraft at the base. From the news video, this base is not only a rainbow drone, Russia's latest Mi-24 "female deer" armed helicopter, Mi-28 "Holocaust" armed helicopter, Mi-171 "Hippo" assault helicopter are deployed in the base base. Therefore, in the subsequent live-fire exercises, these types of aircraft appeared one after another, and the Rainbow-3 and Rainbow-4 inspection and drone unmanned aerial vehicles also performed well in the joint exercise.

According to the report of the Algerian army in the direction of Lieutenant General Salah, the Rainbow-3 and Rainbow-4 drones will cooperate with the base's armed helicopters to conduct patrol surveillance of the vast desert and border areas of Algeria.

At the same time, because the rainbow drones are generally fighting at an altitude of 5,000-7,000 meters, they can basically immunize the shoulder-type air defense missiles in the extreme armed hands of the region. The armed helicopters are vying for a high-altitude "air tank". The two types of aircraft cooperate with each other, and the rainbow drones provide target indications for the armed helicopters to remind the possible presence of enemy short-range air defense missiles. Or direct the helicopter to evade, or directly use the missiles carried by the drone to destroy the target and ensure the safety of the low-altitude assault crew!

According to Algerian news reports, the Rainbow-3A drone introduced by the country's air force is a medium-sized single-attack attack drone that uses a laser-guided missile with a range of 8 kilometers or a GPS/INS guided bomb of 100 kilograms.

Another larger Rainbow-4B drone is a very popular drone with a range of more than 2,000 kilometers, a top speed of 350 km/h, and a maximum flight altitude of tens of thousands of meters, which can last in the air. After flying for 40 hours, multiple external points can carry up to 400 kilograms of bombs and missiles.

According to the Algerian media, the Rainbow-3 drone has been in service in Pakistan, Nigeria and Myanmar, while the Rainbow-4 drone has been favored by Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Egypt, and many countries are competing to buy.

The Algerian army's ability to possess such a new type of weaponry that will change the situation of war will promote the change of military combat style. In this respect, the country's military chooses China's rainbow drone is correct!

Russian netizens evaluate Chinese drones: Russia is like an African country on drones
俄罗斯网友评价中国无人机:俄罗斯在无人机上犹如非洲国家

原创 军车研究社 2018-11-03 19:40:57
不久前,阿尔及利亚首次对外公开了从中国引进的CH-3和CH-4武装无人机,这就使得已装备CH-3无人机的国家多达6个,已装备CH-4无人机的国家5个。除了彩虹系列外,中国翼龙系列无人机也取得了非常不错的外销成绩,翼龙-I已出口5个国家,翼龙-II则已获得了2个国家的订单。如今中国无人机取得的成绩举世瞩目,令曾经许多不看好中国军工的国家都不得不服,比如俄罗斯。

本次阿尔及利亚首次对外公开CH-3和CH-4无人机后多家俄媒对此进行了报道,而且都一改以往轻蔑的态度,如上图,俄罗斯著名的Topwar军事网站以《突飞猛进:中国无人机出现在阿尔及利亚军队中》为标题对此进行了报道。与中国无人机相比,俄罗斯的无人机水平则显与其军工大国地位十分不符,经常被西方媒体和本国媒体嘲讽,但此次俄媒并没有借机对本国无人机工业口诛笔伐。

当然,如今俄媒报道中国武器装备新闻下的评论区才最有意思,平时作风粗犷的战斗民族自嘲起来也是丝毫不留情面。如上图,点赞量最高的评论是“我们曾向中国提供吉尔汽车,甚至是工厂,但是现在我们什么东西都从他们那里买。”一位更悲观的俄网友则回到“对于那些认为中国在技术方面落后的人来说,这是个新闻。然而现实是中国已经有无人机在出售,我们还没同类的东西。与中国相比,再过10年,俄罗斯将成为非洲国家。”一位老哥见状上去狠狠的补了一刀,说到“为什么会这样?很不幸,俄罗斯一直是“非洲”国家”,令人忍俊不禁。

当然,并不是所有的俄网友都这么悲观,也有一些人认为俄罗斯只是在无人机领域不如中国,而在航空发动机领域中国还与俄罗斯差得很远。显然,一个国家某一领域领先或者落后其他国家,并不能代表这个国家所有领域都领先或落后,只是苏联的辉煌留给俄罗斯人太多美好的回忆。如今俄罗斯武器装备更新青黄不接,甚至需要从其他国家采购,作为曾经的超级大国苏联的最大继承国,大部份俄罗斯人显然对于俄军工现状非常不满,才有了恨铁不成钢的态度。

Not long ago, Algeria first publicized the CH-3 and CH-4 armed drones imported from China, which resulted in up to six countries equipped with CH-3 drones, equipped with CH-4 drones. 5 countries. In addition to the Rainbow series, the Chinese pterosaur series drones have also achieved very good export performance. The pterosaur-I has been exported to 5 countries, and the pterosaur-II has received orders from 2 countries. Nowadays, the achievements of Chinese drones have attracted worldwide attention, and many countries that have not been optimistic about Chinese military industry have to take it, such as Russia.

Fighting nationals comment on Chinese drones: self-deprecating compared with China, Russia is like an African country


This time, after Algeria first publicized the CH-3 and CH-4 drones, many Russian media reported on it, and they all changed their past contempt attitude. As shown above, Russia’s famous Topwar military website is leaps and bounds: China The drone appeared in the Algerian army, which was reported for the title. Compared with Chinese drones, Russia's drone level is very inconsistent with its status as a military power. It is often ridiculed by Western media and domestic media, but the Russian media did not take the opportunity to slap on the domestic drone industry.

Of course, now the Russian media reports that the commentary area under the China Weapons and Equipment News is the most interesting, and the usual style is thick....

DJI itself occupies 70% market share, there is really no reason to have another one to fail unless it bring innovative techs

Even DJI civilian drone mavic is used by Israel and US special forces since their industries is not.capable.of making such a fine small drone with so much capabilities.
