FYFT A-series unmanned blimp

FYFT A-series unmanned blimps are Chinese UAVs developed by Qingdao Fei-Yu (meaning Flying Universe) Aviation Science and Technology Co., Ltd. (FYFT, 青岛飞宇有限公司), and these unmanned blimps are named after their respective length. For example: if an A1 series blimp is 11 meter long, then it is named A1-1100, because 11 meters is equal to 1100 centimeters.
