[خره مينه لګته وي]

Any info on what drones these are ??? The designation ZC-5B and ZC-10 is completely new to me ...

ZC-5 could be another designation for the BZK-005 ... but ZC-10 ?

Nope, no further relevant Info available & obviously there are no pics of the following Drones i did some searching on Chinese search engines + Google but didn't find anything...these are new drones and the only guy who revealed/mentioned these drones is Li...

Thanks ... all I found was this !???

And since this such a small drone it is stealthy anyway ... I'm a bit sceptical about the reliability of this report at all.

A state-owned aerial surveying firm will soon begin an extensive aerial survey to map what China claims are the islands and features in the disputed South China Sea and East China Sea that belong to it.

China TopRS Technology Co. Ltd. will use two of its largest unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or aerial drones to conduct the aerial mapping covering thousands of kilometers of ocean. The company will use its long-range ZC-5B and ZC-10 UAVs to map both seas, said Li Yingcheng, general manager.

China TopRS is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Chinese Academy of Surveying and Mapping, a government agency engaged in basic theoretical studies and applications in surveying, mapping, geoinformation and related disciplines.

These drones are the largest in the company's UAV fleet. The ZC-5B is a twin-boom UAV with an inverted V-tail. Its two-blade propeller is driven by a pusher engine mounted at the rear of the fuselage. ZC-5B, which is two meters long and can loft a five kilogram payload, is made of carbon fiber and is intended for long endurance surveillance.
