On August 13, 2026, US President Donald Trump announced tariffs of up to 100% on imported drones and components, with a 15% rate on allies including the EU, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.
Tung Yuan said its drone power systems are mainly for commercial and agricultural use and that it will assess the possibility of local production in the United States.
Ascent Electric stated that its drone counter‑measure systems fall outside the scope of the new tariffs and therefore will not be directly affected.
Yili Electronic noted that its drone engine precision parts are primarily supplied to European commercial drone customers, with shipments mainly to non‑North American markets, so the tariff policy has no impact on it.
