China is learning modern warfare and recognizes that today’s wars are wars of drones. That’s why the country is actively pursuing innovation in this field.

In the city of Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, the PLA Air Force held a military technology competition titled “Countering Drones - 2025.”

The event is part of a major PLA Air Force program focused on developing counter-drone systems. Its goal is to stimulate technological innovation in this area and to shape a new generation of integrated air defense capabilities.

A total of 109 teams from military units, research institutes, and civilian enterprises participated. They presented 144 projects, including interception systems, electronic warfare tools, detection systems, and autonomous control technologies. Forty-four interceptor drones underwent field testing - practical exercises in neutralizing unmanned aerial vehicles.

Organizers emphasized that the purpose of the competition is to accelerate the integration of military and civilian technologies in drone warfare, create a platform for “military startups,” and identify promising solutions for rapid implementation in the armed forces.
