China has developed a bird-shaped drone, further pushing the boundaries of military technology.

According to Global Defense News, recent images show the drones being used by the Marine Corps of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).

The autonomous ornithopters, indistinguishable from real birds at a distance, flap their wings and fly naturally. While the technical details and specific characteristics remain confidential, their deployment within PLA forces has been confirmed.
