[Reporter Hong Youfang/Hsinchu Report] TrendForce, a market research organization, pointed out that as countries actively invest in the procurement, deployment and R&D of military drones, it is estimated that the global military drone market will grow from US$16.5 billion to US$34.3 billion from 2022 to 2025 US dollars, with a compound annual growth rate of 27.6%. Among them, the global market size will reach US$19.7 billion in 2023, an annual increase of 19%. The rising demand for military drones can bring more business opportunities to Taiwanese manufacturers. Currently, Taiwanese manufacturers are in the field of drones. The layout covers complete machines and components, which can not only benefit from the local demand driven by policies, but also have the opportunity to enter the international market.

According to TrendForce, the UAVs used in the Ukrainian-Russian War Observation Army can not only exert powerful asymmetric combat power, but also require less time for combat readiness, preparation, and attack than traditional strike weapons such as fighter planes and tanks. Several times that of ordinary fighters, it is enough to carry out long-range reconnaissance and strike missions.

In addition to the above advantages, the most important thing is that it can reduce personnel damage and greatly improve the combat capability of small units. For modern warfare that emphasizes precision strikes and low casualty rates, it is the general trend for the military to equip drones.

TrendForce believes that, drawing lessons from the Ukrainian-Russian War, countries will inevitably include military drones as one of the key military equipment development projects in the future, and even follow the example of Ukraine to establish a dedicated drone force; will be higher.

At present, military drones are mainly responsible for the tasks of target drones, reconnaissance, communication support, and attack. With the continuous improvement of military drone technology, there will be more opportunities to participate in electronic warfare, aerial refueling, and aerial early warning tasks in the future.

In addition, using drones as loyal wingmen to assist in the execution of reconnaissance and strike missions will also become the focus of development in the next stage.

Taiwan’s factory has laid out the UAV field. TrendForce pointed out that in terms of complete machines, Thunder Tiger Technology has been deployed for a long time. The products include small and medium-sized multi-purpose, multi-rotor UAVs, medium and large unmanned helicopters and submarines, which can be applied to photography, surveillance, reconnaissance, Inspection, communication support, emergency rescue and other applications.

Jingwei Aerospace also has military and civilian UAV solutions, which can be applied to photography, surveillance, reconnaissance, inspection, pesticide spraying, etc.

In terms of key components, such as MediaTek in the field of system single chips, Novatek in the field of image processors, Nuvoton and Holtek in the field of microcontrollers, Yaguang and Zhongyangguang in the field of optical lenses, and Jiabang in the field of antenna solutions. expected to benefit from it.
