Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Market Global Scenario, Market Size, Outlook, Trend and Forecast, 2018 – 2026

Global Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Market size is projected to be valued $68.28 Billion by 2026; with a CAGR of 13.4% from 2019 to 2026. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), universally known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is a component of an unmanned aircraft system (UAS); that comprises of a UAV, a ground-based controller, and a system of communications between the two. Compared to manned aircraft, UAVs were originally used for missions too dangerous for humans.

Increase in the procurement of military UAVs by defense forces worldwide is one of the most significant factors projected to drive the growth of the UAV market. However, lack of proper air traffic management for UAVs, restrictions Imposed on the commercial use of UAVs and issues with safety and security of UAVs may hamper the growth of the UAV market. Furthermore, increased deployment of UAVs to carry out aerial remote sensing and increased defense budgets of emerging economies are likely to create growth opportunities for
