China has unveiled a micro-drone prototype resembling a mosquito, measuring 2 cm and weighing just 0.3 grams. Developed at the National University of Defence Technology, it can potentially transform covert operations, equipped with wings that flap 500 times per second. However, its viability for outdoor use remains limited by power constraints and payload challenges. Expert Bryce Barros highlights limited impact on surveillance capabilities, leaving the drone's future in military applications uncertain.
