Abstract: The current development status of electro-optical information equipment for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) was deeply analyzed domestically and internationally, and the development trend in the future of UAVs electro-optical information equipment under new circumstances was studied and proposed. Building on this foundation, the demands of transformation and development of UAVs electro-optical information equipment were emphasized and discussed from the aspects of confrontation among major power systems, insights from modern warfare, and domestic industry consensus. Additionally, several recommendations were put forward regarding the transformation and development, encompassing system construction, equipment development, civil-military integration, and foundational innovation. Finally, the transformation and development of UAVs electro-optical information equipment was summarized, emphasizing the necessity of pursuing a path of innovative development.
