  • MARKET INSIGHTS Commercial and Defence Aviation in the Middle East: Trends and Opportunities
    MARKET INSIGHTS Commercial and Defence Aviation in the Middle East: Trends and Opportunities Prepared by: Commercial and Defence Aviation in the Middle East: Trends and Opportunities The Middle East has been the rising star of the aerospace industry over the last two decades bolstered by a natural strategic location and concerted efforts from operators and governments to foster the market. In the commercial sector, Middle Eastern growth is fuelled by passenger numbers and a clear eastward movement of the global centre of activity. Growth in the defence sector comes as governments assert themselves amid regional tensions. Whilst the prospects for aircraft sales across both sectors to the region are obvious, the opportunities extend to establishing strategic alliances or in regional manufacturing to develop and support the growing fleets. KEY POINTS • Growth in the Middle East aerospace market is felt across both the commercial and defence sectors. • By 2037, 501 million passengers will transit through the Middle East and Dubai will be the number one Mega Aviation City. • Nearly 3,000 commercial planes and 64,000 pilots will be needed in the Middle East in the next 20 years to accommodate the growth. • Middle East defence spending is expected to reach USD$117 billion per annum by 2023 as the region leads the world on spend per capita and GDP. • Future Middle East spending will be driven by imports with an increasing role for domestically manufactured assets. • Technology will increasingly be used to inform tactical air force operations. COMMERCIAL AEROSPACE: TRENDS The Middle East commercial aerospace industry supports over 550,000 direct jobs plus another 2 million indirect positions and contributes USD$157.2 billion to regional GDP.

  • The United Arab Emirates (UAE): Issues for U.S
    The United Arab Emirates (UAE): Issues for U.S. Policy Updated August 7, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RS21852 SUMMARY RS21852 The United Arab Emirates (UAE): August 7, 2020 Issues for U.S. Policy Kenneth Katzman The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a federation of seven principalities or “emirates.” Its Specialist in Middle population is assessed at nearly 10 million, but about 90% of the population are expatriates from Eastern Affairs within and outside the region who work in its open economy. The UAE is a significant U.S. security partner that hosts about 3,500 U.S. military personnel at UAE military facilities, buys sophisticated U.S. military equipment, including missile defenses and combat aircraft, and supports U.S. policy toward Iran. Most expect this cooperation to continue after UAE President Shaykh Khalifa bin Zayid Al Nuhayyan, who has been incapacitated since January 2014, is succeeded by his younger brother and de-facto UAE leader Shaykh Muhammad bin Zayid Al Nuhayyan. With ample financial resources and a U.S.-armed and advised military, the UAE has been asserting itself in the region, including militarily. In part to counter Iran, the UAE joined Saudi Arabia in a military effort to pressure the Iran-backed Zaidi Shia Houthi rebels in Yemen, a campaign that has produced significant numbers of civilian casualties and criticism of the UAE. That criticism, coupled with UAE concerns that U.S.-Iran tensions could embroil the UAE in war with Iran, might account for an apparent UAE shift toward more engagement with Iran and a decision to remove most of the UAE’s ground forces from the Yemen conflict.
