Based on application, the commercial segment is expected to exhibit the fastest growth during the forecast period.
The commercial segment is experiencing rapid growth due to the increasing adoption of drones across various industries. Drones offer several advantages, including cost savings, increased accuracy, and access to hard-to-reach or dangerous areas. In agriculture, drones are utilized for precision farming tasks such as spraying pesticides and monitoring crop health, leading to higher yields and reduced manual labor. In the real estate and construction industries, drones provide aerial surveys and photographs that enhance marketing efforts and improve project management. Additionally, drones are transforming delivery services, particularly into remote locations where traditional methods are inadequate. Their use in inspection and monitoring across industries like infrastructure, mining, and oil & gas is vital for cutting costs and boosting efficiency. Features such as GPS, high-quality cameras, autopilot technologies, and competitive pricing have made drones increasingly attractive to businesses.
Based on type, the rotary wing segment is expected to lead the small drones market during the forecast period.
The rotary wing segment holds the largest market share due to its flexibility and extensive applications. These drones, especially multirotors, have vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capabilities, allowing them to take off and land without the need for large spaces or runways. This feature makes them suitable for filmmaking, surveillance, and aerial imaging, where the ability to hover in place is essential. Rotary-wing drones, including single-rotor and multirotor types, are used across defense, commercial, and industrial sectors. While some battery limitations exist, advancements in technology are improving their performance, solidifying the position of rotary-wing drones in the [https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/PressReleases/small-uav.asp?utm_source=abnewswire.com&utm_medium=PaidPR&utm_campaign=SmallDronesmarket].
North America is expected to be the largest market for small drones during the forecast period.
North America is the largest market for small drones worldwide. Since 2015, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has allowed military, private, and commercial drones to operate in the US airspace. This has significantly increased the use of drones, particularly in defense for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) missions. The expansion of drone use is expected to continue due to ongoing counter-terrorism operations. In the commercial sector, there is a growing demand for small drones for services like last-mile delivery of products, medicines, and packages. Drone manufacturers are focusing on developing lightweight, long-lasting drones capable of carrying larger payloads over greater distances, enhancing their effectiveness in logistics, agriculture, and infrastructure. Similarly, drones are employed in various fields in Canada, including weather research, disaster monitoring, agricultural spraying, and search and rescue operations. Their capability to operate in challenging and remote environments makes them valuable across multiple industries.
DJI (US), Boeing (US), Lockheed Martin Corporation (US), Parrot Drone SAS (France), RTX (US), Northrop Grumman (US), Israel Aerospace Industries (Israel), BAE Systems (UK), AeroVironment, Inc. (US), and Elbit Systems Ltd.
