Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Market Size, Share Segmented, Applications - Size, Growth, Trends, and Forecasts 2023
Market Introduction
Market Research Future (MRFR) reveals in
its extensive report that the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market is
presumed to grow at a CAGR of more than 10% during the forecast period
(2017-2023). Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are also referred to as drones, are
used as aircraft systems without a human pilot aboard. They are mostly employed
in missions which are dangerous for manned aircraft. They are used for
applications like mapping, security, surveillance, etc. Moreover, it is used to
collect data about certain terrain and battlefield area for military purposes.
Drivers and Restraints
The market growth is
positively influenced by increasing adoption of unmanned aerial vehicle in
military and commercial sector. Few devices have the ability to carry missiles
and hit the target with high accuracy. These are used in aircraft with smaller
dimensions to gather information about hostile places before a mission.
Their use in providing
extensive information for disaster relief is bound to fuel the overall market
growth. Commercial purpose usage is another key factor that is contributing to
the overall industry demand. Apart from this, implementation of modern
agriculture methods gives major push to the market growth, as they are used for
crop spraying, monitoring livestock, crops and water levels. Sophisticated UAV
provide a 3D field image which aids in planning for future expansion.
There is a flip side to
the driving factors as well, namely government regulations that prohibit the
use of UAV, acting as a barrier to the market growth. However, despite the
challenges, its application in multiple industries such as oil and gas sector
is increasing, which results in a considerable development of the market.
increasing usage of UAV across various industries is envisaged to augment the
market growth in the foreseeable future as well.

Regional Segmentation
The regional
segmentation of the global UAV market is done on the basis of the Americas,
Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC) and the Middle-East.
From the Americas, the
United States (U.S) is the global market leader in terms of UAV demand and as a
manufacturer. It is globally the largest operator of UAVs. Majority of this
demand is augmented by military and defense applications, and the U.S. army is
the single largest buyer of UAVs worldwide. Other than large tactical UAVs,
many small electric-powered UAVs are now prevalent at war front. UAVs have now
become an integral part of the U.S. military and defense used for a number of
tactical missions and surveillance purposes. Hence, the market is expected to
maintain a consistent growth rate in coming years on account of technological
advancements and availability of new cost-effective solutions.
The growth of the
market in the APAC region comes close to that of the Americas due to rising
commercial applications such as aerial photography, express shipping and
delivery, gathering information or supplying essentials for disaster management,
geographical mapping of inaccessible terrain and locations, building safety
inspections, precision crop monitoring.
Key Players
Lockheed Martin (U.S.),
Northrop Grumman Corporation (U.S.), Airbus (France), AeroVironment, Inc.
(U.S.), Boeing (U.S.), Elbit Systems Ltd. (Israel), Israel Aerospace Industries
Ltd. (Israel), Textron Systems (U.S.), Thales Group (France), and BAE Systems
(U.K.) are few of the major companies in the global UAV market.
- August 2018 – The United Kingdom
     has ordered six counter-unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems from Rafael
     Advanced Defense Systems. These systems will be used to protect sensitive
     facilities and the contract is worth $20 million. The system makes it
     possible to detect threats using radar and a signal intelligence component
     that monitors the signal broadcast by a UAV in flight.
