Target Drone Market
Key Drivers of Market Growth
The expanding commercial use of drones is a key factor contributing to the growth of the target drone market. Drones are being employed in numerous industries, such as construction, agriculture, and delivery services, where they play a vital role in inspecting infrastructure like pipelines, bridges, and electrical lines. Additionally, commercial drones are increasingly used to deliver small goods.

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration reported that as of August 2023, over 350,000 commercial drones were registered. According to research by Seed Scientific, drone applications across various industries are valued at approximately USD 127 billion. The widespread use of drones in commercial sectors is boosting the demand for target drones.
In the defense sector, target drones serve as an efficient solution for threat simulations, enhancing the training environment for military personnel. The UK Ministry of Defense, for example, invested heavily in military aviation training, including the use of target drones to better prepare aircrews for combat scenarios.
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technology into drones has also been a major trend. Suppliers are developing drones equipped with autonomous instruments powered by AI and machine learning (ML), which allows for the creation of more efficient drones. AI-enabled drones are expected to further drive market growth due to their enhanced capabilities.
Challenges Facing the Market
One of the significant challenges in the target drone market is the limitation of current battery technology. Drones powered by lithium-ion batteries have a short flight time, usually between 25 to 30 minutes, which limits their use in applications requiring longer operational periods. This is especially problematic for industries like defense, logistics, and agriculture, where longer flight durations are often necessary.
Market Segmentation Insights
The target drone market is segmented by engine type, platform, and end-use.
Engine Type: The jet engine segment held the largest market share in 2023, driven by its superior performance in speed, endurance, and payload capacity. Drones powered by jet engines are widely used in industries such as military, oil and gas, and agriculture for tasks such as mapping and inspection. For example, the Chinese company Ziyan UAV developed the Blowfish A3, a jet-powered drone used for both autonomous and swarm operations.
Platform: Aerial targets are the most dominant segment in the target drone market. These unmanned aerial targets (UATs) are used for military testing, threat simulation, and training exercises. Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, for instance, offers the BQM-177A Subsonic Aerial Target (SSAT), which effectively simulates modern airborne threats like enemy aircraft and cruise missiles.
End-Use: The defense sector holds the largest share in the target drone market and is expected to continue growing rapidly. Many countries, including India, are increasingly investing in aerial targets to simulate real-life combat situations and improve weapons training. In January 2022, the Indian government signed a USD 12.9 million contract with Anadrone Systems for aerial targets to enhance training for the Indian armed forces.
