The CASC CH-5, part of the Cai Hong/Rainbow family developed under China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, is a fixed-wing MALE UCAV intended for persistent ISR, target acquisition, and precision strike. Public displays have emphasized its large airframe, pusher-propeller fuel engine configuration, electro-optical/infrared turret carriage, and multiple hardpoints for guided missiles or small precision bombs. The platform is commonly discussed as China’s higher-end exportable armed UAV offering in the Rainbow line, alongside smaller CH-3 and CH-4 systems.
