'''CASIC HW-200''' series [[UAV]]s are Chinese UAVs developed by 3rd Academy Hiwing (or HW for short, 海鹰in Chinese) of [[China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation]] (CASIC), and this academy is also more commonly known as HiWING Mechanical and Electrical Technology Corp, (海鹰机电技术研究院, the exact literal translation of its Chinese name is actually Sea Eagle Mechanical and Electrical Technology Research Academy) or HiWING for short.
==HW-200 Blast-Off==
HW-200 Blast-Off (Teng-Fei or Tengfei, 腾飞) is a [[miniature UAV]] designed for long endurance. HW-200 Blast-Off UAV is in [[twin boom|twin-boom]] layout with [[inverted v-tail]]. There are two models developed as of 2013, HW-200A, which does not have landing gear and thus is recovered via parachute, and another version with tricycle landing gear. Propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven by a pusher engine mounted at the rear end of the fuselage.<ref>[http://mil.sohu.com/20130515/n376023916.shtml HW-200 Blast-Off]</ref> Specification:<ref>[http://www.chinanews.com/gn/2013/05-28/4866380.shtml HW-200 Blast-Off UAV]</ref>
*Wingspan: 3.5 m
==HW-200B Blast-Off==
Although sharing the same name Blast-off and similar designation, HW-200B is a completely different UAV than HW-200A. Instead of the twin boom layout of HW-200/200A, HW-200B is an UAV in conventional layout with high [[wing configuration]] and tricycle landing gear. Propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven [[tractor configuration|tractor engine]] mounted in the nose. W-200B has been deployed during [[2013 Lushan earthquake]] in post disaster geographical analysis.<ref name="HW200B">{{cite web| url=http://www.hiwingage.com/news_show.asp?/13.html | title=HW-200B UAV | accessdate=2013 }}</ref>
==HW-210==
HW-210 is fixed-wing UAV developed by HiWING, and it is in [[twin boom|twin-boom]] layout and high-[[wing configuration]] with [[inverted v-tail]]. HW-210 has the same layout with HW-200 and it is a development of HW-200. As with HW-200, propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven by a pusher engine mounted at the rear end of the fuselage.
