United States Commercial Drones Market Size and Share - Outlook Report, Forecast Trends and Growth Analysis (2025-2034)
Description
The United States commercial drones market size was approximately USD 1406.50 Million in 2024. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.40% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of almost USD 3782.95 Million by 2034.
As per the United States commercial drones market analysis, Oklahoma is one of the leading states for commercial drones. This is because it has extremely liberal airspace lease laws and it also provides airspace ownership rights to landowners. This has also boosted the construction of drone highways in the region. The state’s transportation department also has a dedicated unit for handling drones and supports those private sector companies that wish to test their drone’s hardware and software capabilities, popularising the adoption of drones in the state.
North Dakota and Arkansas are two other states with a positive outlook for commercial drones. The governments in these states have recognised the need for upscaling of the drone sector and have enacted favourable state laws to support the same.
Miniaturisation of drones is enhancing their manoeuvrability and efficiency, which is helping American construction companies in inspecting tall structures. The sensors and cameras equipped in these drones have enhanced capabilities of detecting anomalies in infrastructure design and in alerting contract engineer responsible for repairing it. This helps in maintaining efficiency in operations, which is boosting the United States commercial drones market growth.
To enhance the efficiency and volume of output, the agriculture industry in the USA is harnessing commercial drones’ capabilities to automate standard farming tasks which reduces the need for manual labour and purchasing farming tools.
