WL-10B?? Any info on how it differs to a regular WZ-10 / Wing Loong 10 and was there ever a WL-10A?

The WL-10A does exist. According to CATIC's official website information, it is divided into two models, namely electronic countermeasures and reconnaissance strike.

This is in fact still y mystery to me! After all the years we still haven't seen a real GJ-11. Only the few images from 2013 (?) showing the demonstrator and later on some mock-up images.

I wouldn't be surprised if it is stalled due to lack of engine.

I think we've seen flying wing designs taking flight that might be the GJ-11 right.

But similar to the CS-5000T, what‘s thsi UAV/UCAV anyway? IMO it is too small as an operational type, especially when there is the GJ-11 (allegedly?). So are these just testbed, demonstrators, research projects …??
