XPONENTIAL 2026 "International Unmanned Systems Exhibition" was held from May 11th to 14th in Detroit, USA. Drone and related industry chain operators from around the world exhibited the latest technologies and new designs, attracting industry professionals and buyers from the US and globally. More than 20 Taiwanese companies, including NCSIST and Thunder Tiger Corp., showcased their latest functional products and components from commercial to military use, making Taiwan the largest participating country in this exhibition.
This year, NCSIST's booth appeared for the first time in the Taiwan Pavilion. NCSIST's exhibits included the Jingfeng Type 2 and Type 3 attack drones, the Ruiyuan Type 2 multi-functional maritime drone, small turbine jet engines, 10-inch laser targeting electro-optical payloads, and multi-purpose warheads for drones.
Knowledgeable sources stated that NCSIST's exhibits directly address current shortages in the global defense supply chain. Because they indeed possess performance advantages, they attracted attention, and the small turbine jet engines and multi-purpose warheads received high inquiries.
