The integration of movable antenna (MA) technique into unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications offers a promising solution to reliable and energy-efficient non-terrestrial networking for low-altitude economy. To characterize multi-MA-assisted UAV-to-UAV wideband fading channels, we propose a three-dimensional arbitrary-elevation two-concentric-cylinders reference model. Based on this model, we derive the space-time-frequency correlation function (STF-CF) in closed form. From the STF-CF, we also obtain the space-Doppler power spectral density (SD-PSD) and the power space-delay spectrum (PSDS). The excellent agreement between the theoretical PSDS and some previously reported measurement data demonstrates the utility of the reference model. We then establish corresponding simulation models, which produce consistent results with the derived expressions. By leveraging the closed-form correlation function, the gradient of the log-determinant of spatial correlation matrix with respect to the MA positions can be conveniently obtained, which offers a viable method to maximize the ergodic capacity of the multi-MA assisted wideband UAV-to-UAV channels.
