Rare footage of the People's Liberation Army's Wing Loong-10 drone circling Taiwan has been publicly disclosed by Taiwan's military, drawing widespread attention.

The Taiwan military has rarely made a public disclosure.

Foreign media reported today that the Taiwan defense department has unusually revealed footage of China's "Wuzhen-10" large-scale drone circling around Taiwan. This new type of drone possesses electronic intelligence gathering and electronic warfare capabilities. According to reports, following the mission on May 25, the People's Liberation Army conducted another "joint combat readiness patrol" on June 3.

The Taiwan military’s rare proactive disclosure aims to demonstrate to local residents that it fully grasps developments across the strait, thereby calming anxious "Taiwan independence" forces—essentially an act of self-deception for political maneuvering. In reality, the Wuzhen-10 is already part of the PLA's routine combat readiness posture facing the Taiwan Strait. Its appearance alongside the Jingdezhen warship during this joint combat readiness patrol serves as a practical test of its comprehensive surveillance capability over the entire Taiwan Strait region, clearly demonstrating the PLA’s consistent control over the airspace and maritime areas of the Taiwan Strait—a clear deterrence directed at "Taiwan independence" separatist forces and external interference.
