China's CH-901 (BG-201), developed and manufactured by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) and marketed by ALIT, is listed for special forces reconnaissance and precision attack in the U.S. Army's Worldwide Equipment Guide.

Overview

The CH-901 is also known as BG-201 and is developed and manufactured by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), according to the U.S. Army's Worldwide Equipment Guide, which names Aerospace Long-March International Trade Company Ltd (ALIT) as its marketer. The U.S. Army's guide lists China as the country of proliferation and identifies intended special forces missions as intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, battle damage assessment and precision attack. The relationship with FH-901 remains unresolved: SP's MAI described an apparent rebranding in 2022, while the Taiwan Ministry of National Defense's June 2025 military journal treats CH-901 and FH-901 separately.
