China's recent unveiling of its prototype of a 6-ton tiltrotor unmanned aerial vehicle is stirring up debate over its potential use in combat. The drone, the Lanying R6000, is purportedly intended for nonmilitary uses, but concept drawings that displayed Chinese military logos on the wings and body of the aircraft sparked worries that it may be used for military transportation, surveillance, reconnaissance or attacks. Tiltrotor aircraft such as the Lanying R6000 combine the flying speed of airplanes with the takeoff and landing maneuverability of helicopters, providing them with the advantages of both systems. The new drone, displayed at the Zhuhai air show in November, has a cruising speed of 550 kilometers per hour, a range of up to 4,000 kilometers, a maximum take-off weight of 6,100 kilograms and a maximum payload of 2,000 kilograms according to the website of United Aircraft, a Shenzhen-based company. The business was born in 2014 after the Chinese government began efforts to integrate civil companies into defense technology development. In 2023, United Aircraft received funding from state-backed investment firms totaling nearly $276 million. The company website describes the R6000 drone as a "car in the sky," that can seat up to 12 people with additional applications that include "urban air traffic, logistics transportation, emergency rescue" and others. But some observers say printed designs of the drone with military markings suggest that the company is looking toward military applications of the Lanying system. The drone could serve to increase the efficiency of military logistics and transportation in the event of conflict in the Taiwan Strait, with its long range and rapid deployment capabilities, military analysts tell VOA. The drone does not need a runway "making it particularly suitable for special terrains such as mountainous areas and islands," stated the United Aircraft website's product description. Hong Kong-based Asia Times reported in October , "China's UR6000 may perform rapid resupply missions to support airfield seizure operations during a potential invasion of Taiwan." Yao Cheng, a former lieutenant colonel staff officer of the Chinese Navy Command who is now based in Los Angeles, told VOA that the Lanying R6000's advantages lie in its fast speed, unmanned operation and strong emergency response capabilities. These advantages, he confirmed, would be useful if a conflict were to break out over Taiwan. "If there is fighting in the Taiwan Strait, because its speed is 550 [kilometers per hour], it can deliver the materials to the battlefield in about half an hour," Yao said. Taiwan is located 180 kilometers from China. With a range of 4,000 kilometers, the Lanying R6000 could make more than 10 round trips from China to Taiwan before refueling. Yao said the drone's wide range covers the Western Pacific, giving it the ability to reach locations throughout the South China Sea and U.S. military bases in Japan and South Korea. Given the trend of warfare toward unmanned and intelligent warfare, Yao expects the Lanying R6000 to become an important force in military transportation. However, Su Tzu-yun director of the Institute of National Defense Strategy and Resources at the Taipei-based National Defense Security Research Institute, told VOA that the Lanying R6000 has more value in commercial transportation than in the military. The drone has low stealth capabilities given that helicopters and other similar aircraft that make use of tiltrotors tend to be noisy and produce radar signatures, Su said, making the drone an easy target for air defense missiles. The size of the Chinese army's helicopter force, coupled with the limitations of Lanying system's stealth capabilities, makes it unrealistic for the drone to be considered as an ideal option in high-risk military operations, Su said. He added that China possesses close to 1,000 helicopters, including the Z-20, China's version of the American Black Hawk helicopter. This number still trails behind that of the U.S., which has around 5,500 helicopter units. Su said the drone could still play a limited role in the Chinese Navy. With its compact size and high speed, it is suitable for carrier-based tasks, such as rapid anti-submarine patrols or replenishment missions. The Luying R6000 model could also develop into technology that is more appropriate and valuable for military use in the future, Su added.

FBI, NSA Ask US Telecom Companies to Boost Security Following Chinese Hacking IncidentST. CLOUD — A new Stearns County Sheriff's Office report offers details in the death of 13-year-old Alexander “Xander” Mick, who was killed on Oct. 12 while working at the Harvest of Horror Haunted Hayride in St. Augusta. Mick, of Rice, was working as a “scarer” — someone who dressed up in a costume and stepped out to scare people — when he was run over by a trailer and killed. The Midwest Medical Examiner’s Office ruled that his death was accidental and caused by blunt-force trauma to the head. ADVERTISEMENT The case is closed and nothing revealed in the investigation warranted it being referred to the county attorney’s office, Stearns County Sheriff Steve Soyka told St. Cloud LIVE on Thursday afternoon. The sheriff’s office report said Mick was wearing denim overalls over several layers of warm clothing, as well as what appeared to be a mask or wig. Employees of the event said scarers were assigned different zones along the hayride route and would step onto a bar on the side of the metal trailers to scare guests, according to the report. However, the trailers did not stop along the route, and the driver of the tractor pulling the trailer that ran over Mick said the cruise was set at 2.5 mph, the report said. A sheriff’s deputy at the scene believed that Mick may have tripped or got caught on the back part of the trailer, which pulled him under, according to the report. Multiple employees told investigators they had been concerned about Mick being a scarer, the report said. One employee told law enforcement he shared concerns over Mick’s size and age while another said Mick was not always aware of his surroundings. Jason and Tracy Stock, the hayride owners, canceled the remainder of the season after Mick’s death. Mick’s father, Steven Mick, is friends with the owners of Horror Haunted Hayride and permitted his son to volunteer as an actor for the hayride, according to the report. Mick was an eighth-grader at Sauk Rapids-Rice Middle School, according to his obituary. ADVERTISEMENT
