From July 22 to 25, 2026 International Low-Altitude Economy Expo It was held in Shanghai. This industry‑wide event brought together the latest breakthroughs across the entire low‑altitude economy value chain, with innovative products spanning manned flight, logistics and delivery, urban air mobility, and emergency rescue making their debut. Weihang Technology carry High-Altitude Tethered Main Combat Firefighting UAV System “Aoqin” with Ducted Fan The geometric progression model made its debut at the Shanghai Jinshan District exhibition booth, featuring… World’s first of High‑altitude, high‑flow firefighting at 100 meters above ground With its capabilities, it directly addresses the pressing challenges of high-rise building fires in urban settings through robust, hard‑core performance.

Over the four-day exhibition, Weihang’s booth drew thousands of industry professionals who stopped by to engage in discussions. Wu Zhiqiang, member of the Emergency Rescue Expert Group of the State Council Work Safety Committee, member of the Firefighting and Rescue Expert Group of the Ministry of Emergency Management, and former Director of the Beijing Fire Department. We were especially honored by your presence and took the opportunity to recommend and introduce Weihang to our distinguished guests. Ao Qin Unmanned aerial vehicle system. In addition, Relevant leaders from the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Informatization and the Jinshan District Government They made a special visit to the Weihang booth, where they inquired in detail about key technical issues, including the tethered power and fluid supply system’s sustained operational capability, the effective water‑jet range at an altitude of 100 meters, and its wind‑resistance stability in complex fire‑fighting environments. After watching a video of Ao Qin’s live‑fire exercise, the leaders expressed their appreciation for… “2+1” (Ultra-high efficiency—completing rescue preparations within two minutes and ascending to an altitude of 100 meters in one minute)—and ultra- 30L/s The robust main‑battle capability demonstrated by the sustained water‑jet flow has been duly recognized, with concrete attention paid to the feasibility of this technological approach in addressing the challenges of fire‑fighting and rescue operations in ultra‑tall buildings. At the same time, the team has been encouraged to accelerate the rollout of the product for large‑scale deployment.


Concurrently with the exhibition, the list of selected cases for the 2026 Asia-Pacific Low-Altitude Economy Innovation Leaders was announced. Following two rounds of on-site presentations and rigorous evaluation by a panel of experts, Weihang Technology was honored as… “Outstanding Product” Track awards, and in “Soaring Across the Asia-Pacific: A New Era of the Low-Altitude Economy” The themed exhibition area hosted roadshow presentations, showcasing Weihang Technology’s R&D achievements and drawing numerous upstream and downstream companies to proactively reach out for collaboration.

Concurrent Roadshow and Award Certificates

During the exhibition, Shanghai Radio, Sanjiang Television, and the Liberation Daily Wait for the local media to… “Ao Qin” ” On-site interviews and reports were conducted. The media’s repeated attention underscores society’s growing expectations for the development of emerging industries: from the 2024 Government Work Report, which designated the low‑altitude economy as a “new growth engine,” to its inclusion in the 2025 list of “emerging industries,” and then, in 2026, its first-ever designation as a national “emerging pillar industry.” This marks three successive elevations in the strategic positioning of the low‑altitude economy, clearly demonstrating its pivotal role in the broader national development agenda. Wherever the media turns its lens, that is where the industry’s trajectory points.


Recently, at the invitation of the Shanghai Fire and Rescue Corps, Weihang participated in the “AI‑Empowered Firefighting, Digital Safeguarding” thematic exchange event under the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC). During the event, Weihang joined Shanghai’s fire services, the Development and Reform Commission, the Economic and Information Technology Commission, the Shanghai Fire Research Institute, the Humanoid Robotics Innovation Center, university AI laboratories, and other organizations to jointly unveil the New‑Generation Unmanned Firefighting Equipment Application and Testing Center. Going forward, the center will leverage the comprehensive fire‑fighting training base to further develop and refine cutting‑edge unmanned firefighting technologies. In the keynote address, Xu Fang, President of the China Fire Rescue Academy, highlighted Weihang’s “Aoqin” drone as a flagship example of an unmanned aerial vehicle for high‑rise building fire suppression, emphasizing its pivotal evolution from a supporting tool to a core operational asset in the field of fire rescue.

The “questions of our time” in the low-altitude economy are becoming increasingly concrete and clear: The value of an aerospace vehicle ultimately hinges on its ability to address real-world challenges. As the low‑altitude economy transitions from policy documents to industrial implementation, there is an urgent need for solutions that squarely address real‑world pain points. “Ao Qin” has deeply integrated its electric ducted‑fan flight platform with advanced intelligent algorithms, extending AI‑driven aerial mobility from technological innovation to the front lines of emergency decision‑making. This path forward—empowering the emergency response sector with AI‑enabled, next‑generation rescue capabilities— Wei Hang keeps moving forward. 。



Weihang Technology


Weihang Technology was founded by Tsinghua University alumni and possesses internationally leading… eVTOL Electric ducted-fan jet thrust A technology company driven by innovation, the company’s mission is to make living safer and travel more efficient through technological breakthroughs, and it is dedicated to providing advanced propulsion technologies for urban air‑borne, high‑efficiency mobility—specifically, flying cars. In the near term, the company will prioritize addressing critical pain points in the emergency management sector, initially deploying next‑generation aviation jet‑propulsion technology in essential fire‑rescue scenarios within high‑rise urban buildings. It has pioneered a groundbreaking cross‑disciplinary innovation that bridges two strategic emerging industries—safe emergency response and the low‑altitude economy—offering a solution that could fundamentally resolve the global challenge of inadequate primary firefighting equipment in high‑rise fires. Moving forward, the company will continue to research and apply electric ducted‑fan jet propulsion systems and their associated flight platforms across domains such as low‑altitude firefighting, emergency rescue, flying cars, and three‑dimensional transportation, striving to become a leader in the next generation of electric aviation propulsion systems.
