Significant military potential: Taiwan began to test the unmanned Submarine Hailng (Photo)

Published footage in high resolution is shown in detail the apparatus. Almost the entire surface structure is visible. On September 11, information emerged that the unmanned Hailng submarine was noticed by the doc. The apparatus was developed by the Zhongshan Institute of Science and Technology (CSIST) together with the shipbuilding company Lung Teh Shipbuilding. About it writes the Taiwanese edition of The Liberty Times. New high -resolution images show in detail the apparatus floating on its own.

Almost all its surface structure is visible - the device resembles a small submarine. The emergence of Hailng's naval drone coincided with the development of the Taiwanese submarine Haikun, which was launched last month. Hailng was also noticed by Haikun at the recent trials near the local port. The enthusiasts of military equipment were observed by the Hailng apparatus, which was moored in a small floating steel hangar over the last two days.

In new photos, the front and back are equipped with two cameras, probably with thermal imaging. Outside, the housing is equipped with handrails and various pipelines, although no noticeable surveillance equipment is visible. The Hailng project appeared in 2020, the goal of making a test platform for internal research and development of Taiwan in the field of underwater technology. Hailng characteristics are reported: as reported, work on the vehicle was completed at the end of last year.

Hailng is first and foremost a test platform designed to test numerous scientific projects, not a combat unmanned submarine with weapons. However, there is considerable potential for future use, especially in military and civilian marine studies. Recall that the new Raytheon drones for the US Air Force will be complemented by Amraam Air - Air - Air Class rockets. It was also reported that all three aircraft carriers of China appeared in the controversial waters at the same time.
