Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Market Research - Global Forecast To 2023
Summary:
According to Market Research Future (MRFR)’s assessment, the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market is
expected to strike a CAGR of 20% during the forecast period 2018 to 2023.
Market Overview:
UAVs have developed numerous commercial and industrial applications in the last few years. key players are likely
to focus on the development of industry-based UAVs for industrial applications. These are widely preferred over
manual counterparts for inspection. This, in turn, is projected to lead the growth of the global unmanned aerial vehicle
(UAV) market in the upcoming years.
The technological advancements in applications such as detection of blade defects of a wind turbine and edge erosion
among others is anticipated to expedite the expansion of the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market over the
next couple of years. these vehicles are also largely adopted by the defense sector around the world. It has opened
new avenues of growth opportunities for the development of the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market in
the foreseeable future. On the contrary, threats related to cyberattacks are expected to check the expansion of the
market through the assessment period.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Market Research - Global Forecast To 2023
Segmentation:
Based on type, the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market has been segmented into fixed wing and multi
rotor.
Based on application, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market has been segmented into military and
commercial. The military segment has been further sub-segmented into surveillance, emergency communications,
combat operations, search & rescue, and others. Again, the commercial segment has been sub-segmented into
agriculture, construction, oil & gas, mining, logistics, aviation, telecom, and others. The military segment currently
holds the maximum share of the market. Meanwhile, the commercial segment is likely to witness accelerated
activities and increased revenue generation over the review period.
By component, the global unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market has been segmented into payload, airframe,
guidance navigation & control, and propulsion system. Among these, the airframe segment is anticipated to
dominate the global market across the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
The global unmanned aerial vehicle market has been segmented into North America, Asia Pacific, Middle East &
Africa, Europe, and Latin America. North America is the dominating region in the global market, as of 2017, due
to increased applications of UAVs in the military, homeland security, and commercial operations. Apart from the
US, Canada also engages in the development of UAVs, and results in the growth of the regional market. In
Canada, Transport Canada had invested in the Canadian Centre for Unmanned Vehicle Systems (CCUVS) to
conduct research and provide training related to the usage of UAVs. CCUVS is engaged in developing test and
evaluation capabilities, in line with the growing market demand, which is optimized for unmanned systems.
Meanwhile, Transport Canada had approved for the usage of UAVs for agriculture data collection and a variety of
law enforcement activities.
Competitive Dashboard:
Some of the key players operating in the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market are PrecisionHawk (US), Airbus
(France), Boeing (US), Lockheed Martin (US), Northrop Grumman Corporation (US), General Atomics (US),
Textron Inc. (US), AeroVironment, Inc. (US), DJI (China), Thales Group (France), Parrot Drones SAS (France),
and 3D Robotics, Inc (US)
