October.10 (China Defense Mashup Reporting by Johnathan Weng) --One image recently appeared on Chinese cyberspace provide a convincing result that China has developed some strategic reconnaissance UAVs to accomplish the similar missions like RQ-4 in areas near China Mainland.

In this surprising image, one large uav and half wing of another one can be seen. And the aircraft hangars are obviously built for large UAVs. We can find No.3, No.4 and No.5 hangars in the picture and this uav fleet at least incorporates 6-10 aircrafts.

This large uav has a 18-20 meter (60-66ft) wing span (according to the height of standing peoples) with a horizontal stabilizer linking canted outward twin tails.  Unlike the turbofan engine of RQ-4, Chinese people's Strategic Reconnaissance uav is propelled by Turboprop engine.

The background of the image displays that the location of this uav base is in somewhere mountain area of north China.
