Vietnam UAV and AI technological development

Overview

Vietnam and Japan have initiated a bilateral technological cooperation through the launch of an Innovation Space at the National Innovation Center in Hoa Lac. Supported by the Japanese government and coordinated with the UNDP, this facility serves as a testing ground for startups to validate products in the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) sectors.

Concurrently, Vietnam is advancing its domestic UAV industry and low-altitude economy. Driven by national digital transformation goals, the country is working to master UAV technology for applications in agriculture, logistics, and smart city management. In the defense sector, the Air Defense - Air Force Engineering Institute has progressed from basic models to advanced UAVs, such as the VKT-DN 01, which can carry loitering munitions. Efforts are focused on establishing a complete domestic supply chain, including the production of autopilot systems and AI integration for complex scenarios.
