As an important driving force of new economic momentum, the low-altitude economy is viewed by many as a key strategic emerging industry.
In recent years, Liaoning Province has seized opportunities to actively develop its low-altitude economy. Taking full advantage of its location and its strengths in the fields of aviation and aerospace, the province has focused its development of the low-altitude economy on the general aviation and drone sectors, and enriched application scenarios such as emergency rescue, sightseeing tourism, and agricultural and forestry protection.
A development pattern featuring Shenyang and Dalian as key forces supporting Liaoning's low-altitude economy is taking shape, ranging from China's home-grown four-seat electric aircraft RX4E, independently developed by the Liaoning General Aviation Academy of Shenyang Aerospace University, securing the first type certificate, to a drone powered by an ultra-low-temperature high-energy-density lithium battery, developed by the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, completing a flight test under extreme cold conditions.
The Shenyang general aviation industry base has attracted a cluster of enterprises, and multiple low-altitude passenger routes have been launched in Dalian. The low-altitude economy has injected impetus into the high-quality development of Liaoning Province. (Xinhua/Yang Qing)
