On October 14, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology National Fire Service To be announced by seven departments List of Typical Cases for the Promotion and Application of Safety and Emergency Equipment in 2026 。 Weihang Technology Ducted-Fan High-Altitude Tethered Firefighting Drone System “Ao Qin” selected , is among the 152 selected projects The only firefighting drone system 。






The list encompasses 152 items across 10 areas, including industrial manufacturing, urban and rural fire safety, and earthquake‑related geological hazards. It was finalized through a series of procedures: enterprise applications, recommendations from local industrial and information technology authorities and relevant central enterprises, comprehensive evaluation, and public announcement of the list. The notice calls on all localities to, in light of their specific circumstances, strengthen support for the selected projects in such areas as technological innovation, practical implementation, and government services.

“Ao Qin” is listed as item 82, categorized under the urban–rural fire‑fighting domain (15 items), and was recommended by the Sichuan Provincial Department of Economy and Information Technology. The typical application case cited in the list is a real‑world firefighting drill for high‑rise buildings conducted by the Zhuhai Fire Rescue Detachment in Guangdong Province: the system enables rapid deployment, lifting, and mounting of fire hoses, delivering high‑volume water at elevations of up to 100 meters over long distances and for extended periods, thereby significantly enhancing fire‑suppression capabilities and rescue efficiency in high‑rise building fire scenarios.





Following its inclusion in the national-level promotion catalog, “Aoqin” will receive additional support in areas such as technological innovation, practical implementation, and government services, accelerating its large-scale deployment in urban high-rise fire‑fighting scenarios.
