Methodology & Caveats
Last-known destination ≠ end user. Customs data records the declared destination country, not the final operator of the aircraft.
HS 8806 covers finished aircraft only. Component and subsystem exports ship under other codes — see who makes what in Taiwan's drone component supply chain.
Preliminary figures revise. The newest month is published as preliminary and can change when finalized.
Published figures are a floor, not a ceiling. Passive confidentiality means some shipments may be suppressed from the public statistics.
$/kg threshold. Ukraine-corridor (Czech Republic + Poland) value-per-kilogram is computed only for months where corridor value ≥ $1M; small-volume ratios are noise and are omitted from the chart entirely. Blended all-country $/kg is never charted.
