The main function of the unmanned bomber is to drop bombs with high precision. In the long-distance flight mission, whether the unmanned bomber can still accurately strike the target is the focus of this exercise. In this exercise, LOONG 3 carried mortar shells, flew to a preset target 10km away, automatically dropped bombs at a specified height (300m), accurately hit the target, and returned automatically. This is due to its stable flight capability and precise software program control. LOONG 3 can perform high-precision bombing missions within a radius of up to 70km, and can carry two 81mm or four 60mm mortar shells to strike targets.

The aircraft climbed to an altitude of 1500m and flew to the target area 12km away for reconnaissance. Through the equipped pod, switch the infrared heat source mode to scan the depths of the desert, and found it within 1 minute. The driving track of the target vehicle, and use the 360 times zoom camera to lock and track the target, use laser ranging to accurately measure the position of the target vehicle, and quickly provide real-time target position information to the command center.
