Format
Intensifying global geopolitical conflicts are driving up defense spending, and warfare is pivoting toward asymmetric and information warfare, making low-cost unmanned vehicles (UAVs) crucial. China is deepening military-civilian integration to break through technology controls, while Taiwan is fully developing localized UAV and AI defense supply chains to strengthen resilience.
Key Highlights
- Warfare Trends: Rising tensions drive record spending. Warfare shifts to low-cost, asymmetric unmanned tech.
- China: Advances state-led military-civil fusion in aerospace and chips to counter foreign tech bans.
- Taiwan: Funds local production of drones and AI defense systems to boost supply chain resilience.
