India's confidence in China's "eviction order", foreign media analysis 1The economic changes brought about by 6 trillion.
With the development of UAV technology, its application scenarios are also increasing, in addition to important applications in the military, agriculture, search and rescue, reconnaissance and other fields, it has also gradually played an important role in the use value.
In the field of drones, it can be said that China's technological level has reached the world's top level, for example, China's drone manufacturer DJI can be said to be a unicorn in the field of drones, accounting for more than 70% of the global market share, and the market share in the United States has also reached about 80%. It has a strong presence on a global scale.
Previously, the United States had intended to conduct a Chinese drone"Decoupling and chain breaking", trying to ban the export of Chinese drone products to the American market, establish"Barriers"Protect the development of American UAV enterprises. Obviously, the technical level of local UAV companies in the United States is low, and the performance of UAV products produced can only reach about 20% of the demand, but the cost is several times higher than that of DJI UAV products.
The U.S. market is very dependent on DJI's drone products, not only the United States imports a large number of DJI drone products to limit the shipment of DJI drone products, and would rather land than use U.S. drone products, and even some U.S. drone companies are very dependent on imports from China in terms of core technology and components.
Previously, China's Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs jointly banned the export of drones and restricted the export of some drone technology and components, which also caused American drone manufacturers to be affected by the lack of Chinese parts and components, resulting in the inability to produce.
The main reason why DJI has such a large influence and market share in the drone market is that it dominates the basic technology of a large number of drones. According to data released by DJI, DJI has more than 5,000 certified patents in China and more than 3,000 patented technologies.
Some time ago, another country planned to get rid of its dependence on Chinese UAVs and independently develop its own local UAV industry, but it was not favored by foreign media and industry experts, and this country was India. According to Reuters, India issued an import ban some time ago, claiming that it would no longer use Chinese-made drone parts due to information security concerns.
In this regard, some foreign media said:"While India's ban may seem very harsh, there are actually many loopholes in the ban. For example, India has banned the import of drone parts, but it has not restricted all drone products. This could have the opposite effect on the development of the drone industry in India.
In addition, India has not banned the import of Chinese drone parts from third countries. However, this practice will lead to an increase in the cost of importing drone components for India.
India's move is actually to develop the local drone industry, after all, the importance of drones is self-evident today, and India has been worried about being cut off by China UAV products and components. However, judging from the internal rate of the Indian drone industry, it is not easy to get rid of dependence on Chinese drone products and components.
According to relevant data, the localization rate of Indian military UAVs is about 40%, while the localization rate of civilian UAVs is only 5%, and about 95% of the parts need to be imported from China. India not only has to build a complete industrial chain, but also faces a situation of competition with Chinese drones.
However, of course, India is not without the slightest preparation, and began to pat its head on the independent localization of the drone industry. According to Indian News, India has announced an investment of 16 trillion rupees, equivalent to about 140 billion yuan, will be used for the independent research and development of the drone industry to get rid of dependence on Chinese drones.
However, many foreign countries and industry experts do not agree with India's plan to independently develop the UAV industry, after all, the United States far surpasses India in terms of technical level, but it has not achieved much in terms of independent research and development of UAVs, and it is more difficult for India to independently develop the UAV industry than the United States.
By restricting the import of drones from China, the United States has made drone products more than 300% of the market in the United StatesIf India bans the import of drones from China, drone products in the Indian market will also be substantial.
India wants to develop its own drone industry, so it announced the latest ban, restricting the import of Chinese drone parts, and also extracted 1.6 billion rupees to promote the localization of drones. However, judging from the current level of Indian UAVs and the localization rate of Indian UAV manufacturers, it is not easy for India to realize the localization of UAVs.
