I thought the same thing. Then read this on Wiki that made it all a bit clearer
AVIC VSTOL UAVs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The eventual goal is to have an VTOL aircraft with take-off weight of 60 tons, and payload of 20 to 30 tons, speed of 538 km/hr, range of 3106 km, ceiling of 8615 m, and combat radius around 815 km.
Certainly sounds ambitious!
