The ASN-206 is a lightweight, short-range, tactical multi-purpose unmanned aerial vehicles (uav) developed by Xi'an ASN Technology Group Company, a commercial company owned by Northwest Polytechnic University (NPU). The ASN-206 can be used for day/night aerial reconnaissance, electronic warfare and countermeasures (EW/ECM), battlefield surveillance, target positioning, artillery spotting, border patrol, nuclear radiation sampling, aerial photography and prospecting, and electronic countermeasures. It is one of the most popular and advanced tactical UAV systems fielded by the PLA.
ASN-206型是由西安愛生技術(shù)集團(tuán)公司發(fā)展的一種輕型、近程戰(zhàn)術(shù)多用途無人機(UAV),一家由西北理工大學(xué)(NPU)成立的商業(yè)公司。ASN-206型能用于晝/夜空中偵察、電子戰(zhàn)和對策(EW/ECM)、戰(zhàn)場監(jiān)視、目標(biāo)定位、火炮(落彈)觀測、邊境巡邏、核輻射取樣、航空攝影和探礦、電子對抗。它是被PLA裝備的一種最廣泛和先進(jìn)的戰(zhàn)術(shù)UAV系統(tǒng)。
Programme
The development of the ASN-206 completed in December 1994 and the serial production began in 1996. Winner of the 1996 Chinese National Award for Technology Improvement, the ASN-206 was reportedly developed under the assistance of Tadiran Spectralink Ltd, a Israeli company specialising in the airborne communications and electronic countermeasures (ECM) systems, but this cannot be confirmed.
計劃
ASN-206型的發(fā)展在1994年12月完成,而且批量制造從1996年開始。1996年成功獲得中國國家科技進(jìn)步一等獎,ASN-206型根據(jù)傳聞在塔迪蘭光譜鏈路公司(Tadiran Spectralink)的協(xié)助之下發(fā)展,一家專門研究航空通信和電子對策(ECM)系統(tǒng)的以色列公司,但是這不能夠被證實。
A versatile aerial platform, the ASN-206 could be fitted with various mission payloads according to the requirements. The most significant improvement on the ASN-206 is its real-time datalink, which transfers video images to the ground control without any delay, while older-generation UAVs have to be recovered before the photo intelligence can be retreated. The UAV is being widely used by the PLA for various tactical roles.
ASN-206型是一種多功能空中平臺,能依照需求配備各種不同的任務(wù)負(fù)載。在ASN-206型上最重要改良是它的實時數(shù)據(jù)鏈,無延時傳輸視頻圖像到地面控制站,上一代UAV必須被回收后才能獲得圖片情報。UAV廣泛被PLA用于各種不同的戰(zhàn)術(shù)任務(wù)。
The ASN-206 uses a tail-pushed, twin-tail braced design. The advantage of this layout is that the propeller driven by the tail-mounted engine would not disturb the sight of reconnaissance system.
ASN-206型采用尾推進(jìn)、雙尾撐設(shè)計。這一個布局好處是螺旋槳被尾部安裝發(fā)動機驅(qū)動將不妨礙偵察系統(tǒng)觀測。
The ASN-206 can be configured with regular or infrared cameras or television seekers which would give the system a near-real-time capability. Some reports indicated that the electro-optical observation package on the ASN-206 was derived from an observation device purchased from Israel's Tadiran Ltd. The navigation systems of the UAV incorporates gps and radio command.
ASN-206型能配置普通或紅外照相機或電視搜索頭將提供系統(tǒng)一種接近實時能力。一些報告認(rèn)為ASN-206型上的光電觀測組件來源于從以色列塔迪蘭(Tadiran)有限公司購買的觀測裝置。UAV導(dǎo)航系統(tǒng)包括GPS和無線電指令。
The UAV is controlled by a digital flight control and management system, and is connected with the ground station through its intergrade radio system and advanced mission control system. The video data from the optical/infrared cameras are transmitted to the ground station in real time.
