From 2007 to 2014, EU production of radar apparatus, radio navigational aid apparatus and radio remote control apparatus showed mixed dynamics, finally rising from 17,579 thousand units in 2007 to 23,732 thousand units in 2014. It expanded with a CAGR of +4.4% over the period under review. In value terms, EU radio apparatus production was 5,545 million EUR in 2014.
The countries with the largest production of radio apparatus in value terms were Germany (1,254 million EUR), France (1,135 million EUR) and the United Kingdom (864 million EUR).
Positive dynamics in radio apparatus production among the main producing countries from 2007 to 2014 were recorded in Germany (+3.6% per year), while for the other two EU leaders (France and the United Kingdom) the paces of growth were negative.
Germany dominated in EU radio apparatus production and trade. In 2014, it exported the lion's share of its total radio apparatus output. Of this amount, 11% was supplied to the United Kingdom, where Germany's navigational and remote control apparatus held a 21% share of the country's total imports.
