Produce enough of these missiles can be a game changer. It is like a portable cruise missiles that can be deployed anywhere included fishing ships. I assumed they are very cheap to produce. Having 100k of these could overkill any defense system or completely deplete all antimissile stockpile in IC and SCS and 4-5 carrier group

A confirmation of cooperative engagement between UAVs and attack helicopters. Basically, the tasks of identifying and illuminating targets are delegated to UAVs, with attack helicopters serving as bomb trucks by firing missiles at the targets. This reduces the workload of attack helicopter pilots as well as reducing exposure to enemy fire.

The CH-4 UAVs in service with PLA Army Aviation is officially designated KVD002. The placard text states that, in addition to independent recon and strike roles, KVD002 also cooperate closely with attack helicopters. KVD002s are used to escort helicopter formations and screen for threats on the ground. They also provide attack helicopters with target guidance and target illumination.
