Engineers at the Shenyang Aircraft Design and Research Institute have identified critical limitations on the XQ-58A experimental drone of the US Air Force.
According to Chinese experts, the device does not have sufficient maneuverability for air combat, which means that the Pentagon intends to use it to break through enemy defenses to perform combat missions with a high degree of risk, reports the South China Morning Post.

Disadvantages of Chinese fighters with Russian engines are called
Chinese analysts have listed the shortcomings of the Russian fifth-generation J-20 aircraft with Russian engines.
The J-20 with Russian engines suffers from maneuverability.
Engine thrust at 125 kilonewtons may not be enough to compete with the American F-22 and F-35.
In addition, the Chinese fighter jet is limited in the amount of weapons it can carry.
The J-20 is equipped with the Russian AL-31F M2 engine, developed for the Russian Su-27, Su-30 and Su-34 aircraft. The first samples of the Chinese fighter were equipped with the Chinese WS-10B engine. But it was installed on the fourth generation aircraft.
The experts also said that the efficiency of the Chinese aviation reduces the shortage of bombers and transport aircraft.
