The 2025 Shenzhen Safety and Emergency Technology Exhibition and Shenzhen Emergency Industry Expo, which opened on August 21, was held under the theme “Seizing New Technological Breakthroughs to Elevate Safety to New Heights.” Focusing on cutting-edge technologies and industry achievements in the safety and emergency response sector, the event drew professionals from across China, including delegations from emergency management agencies representing nearly a hundred provinces and municipalities—such as Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Fujian, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, and Xinjiang.

At this exhibition, Weihang Technology showcased The world’s first high-altitude tethered main battle firefighting drone system featuring a ducted fan—Ao Qin The event attracted numerous industry professionals. During the exhibition, leaders from Shenzhen Municipal Emergency Management Bureau, as well as from Bao’an District, Luohu District, Nanshan District, and other provincial emergency management agencies, paid a special visit to Weihang’s booth for on-site exchanges. The officials gained an in-depth understanding of Weihang Technology’s innovative achievements, expressed strong approval of the system’s capability to address fires in high-rise buildings exceeding 100 meters in height, and engaged in thorough discussions with Weihang regarding potential business collaborations.

A relevant official from Weihang stated that, according to… National Fire Equipment Quality Inspection and Testing Center Ao Qin has obtained the qualification certification for the high-altitude tethered main combat fire‑extinguishing UAV system equipped with a ducted fan. Commissioned Inspection Report Issued by the Shanghai Fire Research Institute of the Ministry of Emergency Management , become The nation’s first drone equipped with a ducted fan, capable of heavy‑load tethered operation for fire suppression while providing power and fluid supply, has successfully completed the commissioned inspection by the National Fire‑Equipment Inspection and Testing Center. After observing the drone‑based water‑spraying demonstration in the video, leaders from emergency management departments across various regions highly praised the system’s innovative approach to tackling the challenges of high‑rise firefighting, explicitly stating that this technological solution is an urgently needed tool for addressing the most pressing issues in such scenarios. Leaders from multiple regional emergency bureaus have proactively reached out to Weihang, expressing their desire to pursue further collaboration in the future.

According to reports, Weihang Technology will subsequently bring… Ao Qin Participating in live‑fire drills across multiple provinces and municipalities has brought this innovative technology directly to the front lines of firefighting. Through real‑world operations, the system’s outstanding primary fire‑suppression performance has been further validated, laying a solid foundation for its future deployment in emergency rescue scenarios and helping to build a more efficient urban fire‑safety protection network.
