Jovian UAV is an UAV design by Chengdu Jovian Co., Ltd. (Jovian, 成都纵横科技有限公司), which is traditionally a subsystems provider for higher tier UAV manufacturer, instead of an UAV manufacturer. Jovian has been a long time provider to other major Chinese UAV manufacturers critical major subsystem such as attitude and heading reference system, GPS aided strapdown inertial navigation system, autopilot, inertial measurement unit, flight simulation, design and test support. Recently, Jovian has begun to venture into OBM of UAV, but no known UAV has been flown. Instead, Jovian provides UAV design for other Chinese manufacturers to build in OEM form. One of the completed design released by Jovian is externally similar to CAIG Sky Wing III with identical layout.[1] Though Jovian admits at various Chinese airshows and exhibitions that other undisclosed Jovian UAV designs are also available for joint production, none of them are provided with technical details.
