I think SAC is currently working on X45/47 type of UAV, DarkSword appears a long term project reqiring lots of new technologies.

@huitong
I heard that the Shenyang Darksword has already been abandoned, according to various bloggers in CJDBY.
Is it true?

Yes it is likely this preliminary design has been abandoned. There may be a follow-on design some years later.

How sure are you on this supposed "follow on design"? Is it in development?

You said in your WZ-2000 post that besides GAIC, CAC is also building a similar stealth UCAV.
Do you have any further information on this?
Is it the same as SAC's stealth UCAV which is similar to the X-47/X-45?
