Abstract

Defense exports have overgrown in a short period, and items have been diversified with advanced high-end equipment, but exports have been stagnant due to the global economic recession and fierce competition. Weapons importers in the global market are diversified, volatility is higher, and global defense companies are also expanding their global value chain (GVC) By participating in the GVC of a global defense company, the defense SME can grow into a competitive company with specialized technology, rather than participating as a partner of a domestic system company. It is time to prepare an export promotion support plan. In this study, we selected five global companies with high value for the implementation of offset and general considerations on domestic SMEs' entry into the international parts supply chain and related cases, and investigated GVC entry requirements, the current status of cooperation partners, and the perceptions of GVC entry, through local surveys in Korea and overseas. Also, by considering the export target comprehensively, GVC stage, and the level of export competitiveness of domestic SMEs, strategies for promoting GVC participation of defense SMEs and improvements in government policies were derived and presented.

국내 방산수출 규모는 단기간 급성장하고 품목도 첨단 고가장비로 다양해졌지만 내수 위축은 물론 글로벌 경기 불황과 경쟁 심화로 최근 수출이 정체되고 있는 상황이다. 글로벌 시장의 무기 수입국들은 보다 다양해졌고, 변동성은 더욱 커졌으며, 글로벌 방산기업들 역시 기존 거래선 외 글로벌 부품공급망(GVC: Global Value chain)을 전 세계로 넓혀 나가는 추세다. 방산 중소기업이 국내 체계기업의 협력업체로 참여하는 수준에서 벗어나 특화된 기술력을 갖춘 경쟁력 있는 기업으로 성장하여 수출물량을 안정적으로 확보할 수 있도록 글로벌 방산기업의 부품공급망 참여를 통한 수출 활성화 지원책 마련이 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구에서는 국내 중소기업의 국제 부품공급망 진입실태 및 관련사례에 대한 일반적 고찰과 절충교역 이행가치가 높은 5개 글로벌 기업을 선정한 뒤 한국지사 및 해외 현지 조사를 통해 GVC 진입요건, 협력파트너 현황, 국내 중소기업의 GVC 진입에 대한 인식 등을 조사하였다. 또한 수출대상과 GVC 단계, 국내 중소 기업 수출경쟁력 수준 등을 종합적으로 고려하여 방산 중소기업의 GVC 참여를 촉진하기 위한 전략과 정부정책의 개선 사항을 도출하여 제시하였다.
