1 Global UAV Market Size and Drivers

1.1 UAV Market Size and Forecast 2015–2025

1.1.1 Global UAV market to show positive growth during the forecast period

UAVs are the next generation of aerial platforms being deployed by defense ministries around the world,

demand for which has been fuelled by the successful deployment of these systems in combat operations in

Iraq and Afghanistan. These unmanned platforms are used as force multipliers, performing ISR missions,

target recognition, damage assessment and electronic warfare Defense ministries around the world are

investing in this capability to reduce troop casualties. Specifically, mini and VTOL UAVs are affordable and

capable of performing ISR missions; demand for these cost-effective UAVs is on the rise in countries with low

spending power. The global market for UAVs in 2015 is estimated at US$XX billion and is expected to grow at

a CAGR of XX% to reach US$XX billion by 2025. Cumulatively, during the forecast period, the total market for

UAVs is estimated to be US$XX billion.

3 Country Analysis – UAV Market

3.1 United States Market Size and Forecast 2015–2025

The US comprises the largest market for UAVs in the world and is also the largest manufacturer of various

unmanned systems globally. Over the years, the US has established itself as a global leader in developing

advanced unmanned systems, and as a specialist in their subsequent graduation from Intelligence,

Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to combat warfare, as manifested in its decade long war

against terrorism. The necessity for continual and superior ISR capability by the armed forces has stimulated

the US to invest substantially in unmanned air systems (UAS) and related technologies. Presently, the US

DoD operates more than 7,000 UAVs, mainly in international locations such as Afghanistan, Pakistan and

Yemen, as well as domestically along the US-Mexico border. A majority of these are small UAVs with a wing

span of between three and four feet, which are used by ground units for real time geographical or structural

surveillance. However, over 83% of the total UAV expenditure is on medium and large UAVs that are used in

more strategic and tactical ISR and combat roles than their smaller counterparts. Evidencing the trend, HALE

and UCAV programs are expected to dominate procurement expenditure during the forecast period, as the US

military looks to induct more UAVs with enhanced endurance and weapon bearing capabilities. In the country,

the Air Force, Army, Marines, the Navy and the Department of Homeland Security are the prime buyers of

advanced UAVs, each having their own procurement objectives. As such, US spending on UAVs is projected

to record sustained activity over the forecast period, with spending in 2015 expected to remain at US$XX

billion. This level of expenditure is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% over 10 years to reach US$XX billion

by 2025. Cumulative spending by the US on UAV platforms over the forecast period is expected to be US$XX

billion.
