The market report analyzes and studies the major market drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and rest of the world (RoW).The major challenges faced by the UAV market are air traffic management, lack of regulatory policies, and procedural issues.

North America holds an estimated share of 65.53% of the global UAV market in 2015. Europe is expected to witness a strong growth, due to increase in investments in defense and commercial applications in the U.K. and Russia. Technological advancements in UAVs, effectiveness in combat situations, and rising demand for non-defense applications are factors expected to drive the UAV market.

The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Market is also driven by the reduced risks associated with the use of UAVs, and technological innovations that have created a demand for UAVs in performing complex operations, thereby reducing the need for human intervention. The success of UAVs in combat operations has increased their demand in North America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific regions. Reduced defense budget in the North American and European countries in recent years, is expected to hamper the growth of this market. The lack of skilled and trained pilots and strict airspace regulations are expected to further restrain its market growth. In contrast to this, there is a huge scope for research & development in the field of UAV, which aims at increasing the operational efficiency and provides complete autonomy. Investments are infused in this field, which has resulted into adoption of autonomous control systems.

The UAV market is segmented on the basis of class, subsystem, defense spending, payload, application, and region.

Technology and industry trends have also been highlighted, which would facilitate market intelligence process and enable better business opportunities for organizations.
