Thanks, I didn't realize the extent of the range. Although, if launched from mainland China a round-trip to Canada is still pretty darn far, eh? But now I am playing the guessing game a bit too much for my own liking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-altitude_long-endurance_unmanned_aerial_vehicle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-altitude_long-endurance...

You assume it was launched from the ground, both air and sea launches are quite possible too. Also there is the Arctic you can take off and land on ice and use either an icebreaker or a sub for deployment and recovery. China does have some advanced drones with a substantial range e.g. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guizhou_WZ-7_Soaring_Dragon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guizhou_WZ-7_Soaring_Dragon Ofc how they perform in reality vs their published specs no one knows. In the past at least likes of China and Russia tended to inflate the specs that they made public whilst the west tended to keep the real figures hidden and release far more conservative figures especially when it came to things like maximum speed, range and operational ceiling.
