Shun Fung's unmanned aerial vehicle distribution concept has been the response of the international giants. Amazon is developing an unmanned aerial vehicle logistics system called Amazon Prime Air, Bezos, its CEO, said in a U.S. television show.

It is reported that in the system unmanned aerial vehicles will dock at the end of the conveyor belt, automatically pick up the package. The aircraft is able to deliver the goods within half an hour by withstanding the maximum limit of 5 pounds and flying 10 km.

Bezos said the Amazon package, 86% weight less than 5 pounds, in line with aircraft delivery standards. In Bezos's idea, this mode of transport was originally targeted at holiday shopping, especially the annual "online shopping Monday." On Amazon this day, an average of more than 300 odd orders per second. Amazon not only wants to reshape the way people shop, but also wants to change the way parcels are delivered to the recipient's hands.

Bezos expects "Amazon Prime Air" to completely replace the existing logistics system will take 4-5 years, the current project is only a small scale test. Amazon is working with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to develop the logistics system to ensure the legality of the Amazon Prime Air Service.

Domestic logistics enterprises, Shun Fung has begun to dabble in the field of unmanned aerial vehicle distribution. Some insiders pointed out that although unmanned aerial vehicle distribution has many limitations, such as policy, security, cost and so on, but considering the increasing cost of human, land and fuel, unmanned aerial vehicle distribution has more cost advantage than traditional manual distribution.
