An excellent promo video of the new Chinese base anti-submarine / patrol aircraft KQ-200. The Chinese Y-8GX6 aircraft (Gaoxin 6, sometimes the KQ-200 index) became the first modern basic patrol aircraft in the PRC. The aircraft is based on a deep modernization (the so-called “Platform III”) of the medium four-engine turboprop transport aircraft Y-8 – a modification of the licensed copy of the Soviet An-12, produced by the Chinese aircraft manufacturer Shaanxi Aircraft Corporation (SAC) in Hanzhong (Shaanxi province).
