Tay Ninh province is building on UAV applications to develop an industry spanning testing, training, research and development, and assembly. Its 2026–2030 unmanned vehicle ecosystem development strategy sets out 11 priority task groups, including establishing testing areas, promoting UAV and digital twin technologies, and connecting businesses with research institutions.

In Gia Lộc ward, local authorities have conducted UAV test flights and are studying their use to monitor environmental sanitation, land and crop conditions, and progress on public investment projects. The ward has more than 13,000 temporary residents and 31 staff members in place against an authorized headcount of 44; the staffing shortage makes routine inspections more difficult.

For workforce development, Tay Ninh plans to train at least approximately 3,200 Category B trainees and 1,000 Category A trainees in 2026–2027, and to maintain training for at least 1,000 people a year by 2030. The province also plans to establish a UAV training and certification center to meet regional workforce needs.
Realtime Robotics Vietnam Joint Stock Company plans to build a UAV assembly and testing plant in Hưng Thuận commune. The proposed project would cover approximately 5.6 hectares and involve total investment of about VND 120 billion. Its implementation has yet to be confirmed; if it goes ahead, it would provide local assembly and testing capacity and help connect research, training, and production.

Tay Ninh aims to become a national center for UAV testing, training, applications, and services by 2035, establish an industry chain from research and development through commercialization, and create approximately 8,000 to 10,000 jobs. The province also targets growth in the industry’s value added at 1.3 to 1.5 times the growth rate of provincial gross regional domestic product.
