The Type B UAV (B Xing Wu-Ren-Ji, B型无人机) is a Chinese unmanned aerial vehicle developed by People's Liberation Army General Armaments Department (PLAGAD). Type B UAV is not developed by some aircraft design or production establishments, but instead, it was developed by a computer research institute of PLAGAD in Sichuan. It is in twin-boom configuration and the propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven by an engine installed at the rear end of the fuselage. The landing gear system consists of a pair of skids. For ease of transportation, it can be taken apart into 8 modules each less than a meter long in transit, and quickly reassembled in the field.[1]
