Skydio, a leading U.S.-based drone manufacturer, is facing disruptions in its battery supply chain due to Chinese sanctions.
The sanctions aim to eliminate American drone companies and increase dependence on Chinese drone suppliers.
Skydio relies on global suppliers, including China, for components like batteries, and the sanctions restrict Chinese companies from supplying them.
To mitigate the impact, Skydio plans to extend support terms for affected orders and is exploring alternative battery suppliers. They have also sought assistance from U.S. officials and engaged with Taiwan's Vice President.
