Unmanned aircraft; for other than remote-controlled flight and other than for carriage of passengers with a maximum take-off weight more than 25kg but not more than 150kg

HS v2022 Code: 880694

About unmanned aircraft; for other than remote-controlled flight and other than for carriage of passengers with a maximum take-off weight more than 25kg but not more than 150kg

HS code 880694 covers a specific category of unmanned aircraft, excluding those used for remote-controlled flight or the carriage of passengers. These aircraft, with a maximum take-off weight between 25kg and 150kg, play a crucial role in various industries, from military and surveillance applications to commercial and research-oriented uses. Their versatility and ability to operate in environments inaccessible to manned aircraft make them an increasingly important part of the global aviation landscape.

Production process

The production of unmanned aircraft under HS code 880694 typically involves advanced engineering and manufacturing techniques. Key steps include the design and development of the airframe, the integration of propulsion systems, the installation of avionics and control systems, and the rigorous testing and certification processes to ensure airworthiness and compliance with regulatory standards.

Production inputs

The production of unmanned aircraft under this code requires a range of specialized inputs, including lightweight and durable composite materials for the airframe, high-efficiency electric motors or turbine engines for propulsion, advanced electronic components for flight control and navigation systems, and specialized software for autonomous or semi-autonomous operation. Additionally, the manufacturing process may involve specialized tools, precision machining equipment, and a skilled workforce with expertise in aerospace engineering and avionics.

Production outputs

Unmanned aircraft classified under HS code 880694 are primarily used for a variety of applications, including military and defense operations, aerial surveying and mapping, environmental monitoring, search and rescue missions, and commercial applications such as aerial photography and package delivery. The outputs of this industry may be consumed by 880510 Bombers, fighter bombers, attack aircraft, military reconnaissance aircraft, and military transport aircraft, 880520 Helicopters, and 880530 (Aircraft n.e.c. (not elsewhere classified), for other than military use).
