AbstractOur latest defence report - The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) Market 2009-2019 - examines one of the defence industry's most interesting and promising markets. Our market study reviews leading UAV programmes and products, with the prospects and outlook for providers of UAV systems and technologies. Those pilot-less aircraft are taking on important battlefield and security roles, becoming crucial to missions and other operations. Pending new rules, a significant civil UAV market is also poised to flourish. The high priority assigned to UAVs has made those products and systems relatively resistant to the global economic downturn, visiongain concludes. This report discusses that market in detail, explaining its characteristics and potential from 2009 onwards.
Visiongain predicts that the worldwide UAV market will expand significantly next decade - you will see relevant forecasts in this report. Major defence contractors are involved in developing and producing UAVs. At the same time, newer or smaller companies have also emerged with innovative technologies that make the market even more vibrant.
Our forecast period, 2009-2019, reveals an overall rise in UAV spending as militaries embrace UAV systems and incorporate new policies. Which UAV submarkets have the greatest value and will experience the highest growth? Which countries will spend most on UAVs over the next decade, and how much? How are UAV manufacturers adapting to meet increasingly-demanding military requirements? This report will provide you with the information that you need to understand current trends and future possibilities. In particular, we discuss the global outlook for the following UAV submarkets:
- Small UAVs
- Tactical UAVs
- Endurance UAVs
- Unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs)
- Civil UAVs.
