Aisheng ASN-1
ASN-1 UAV and its successors are Chinese micro air vehicles (MAV)s developed by Xi'an,[1][2] also known as Northwestern Polytechnical University UAV Research Institute or 365th Institute,[3] established in 1984.
ASN-1
ASN-1 UAV is a fixed wing MAV in conventional layout with high wing configuration and T-tail. Propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven piston engine mounted on the wing. Specification:[4]
- Wingspan (m): 3
- Length (m): 1.8
- Max weight (kg): 6.5
- Max speed (km/h): 90
- Ceiling (km): 0.5
- Minimum operating altitude (m): 50
- Remote control radius (km): 10
- Endurance (hr): 2
- Fuel: gasoline
- Launch: by hand
ASN-15
ASN-15 is a development of ASN-1 MAV and share the same configuration, and externally, they look almost identical to each other. Specification:[5]
- Speed (km/h): 80
- Normal operating altitude (km): 0.5
- Ceiling (km): 3
- Endurance (h): 1
- Remote control radius (km): 10
- Weight (kg): 6
- Launch: by hand
- Recovery: glide or parachute
ASN-217
ASN-217 is a further development of ASN-15, and it is a fixed wing MAV in conventional layout with high wing configuration and T-tail. ASN-217 share the identical layout of ASN-1 and ASN-15, and as with these earlier members of this series, ASN-217 is also electrically powered. Specification:[6]
- Take-off weight (kg): 5.5
- Payload (kg); 1.5
- Ceiling (km): 4
- Max speed (km/hr): 120
- Cruising speed (km/hr): 40 – 70
- Endurance (hr): 1.5
- Remote control radius (km): 20
- Wingspan (m): 2.7
- Length (m): 1.7
