UAV 시장 : 시스템, 최대 이륙 중량(MTOW), 플랫폼, 용도, 날개 유형, 제어, 거리, 컴퓨팅 기술, 지역별 - 세계 예측(-2031년)

The UAV (drone) market is expected to reach USD 83.51 billion by 2031 from USD 42.72 billion in 2026, growing at a CAGR of 14.3% during the forecast period.

The use of autonomous operations is increasing across different industries. Real-time data collection is becoming more crucial for aerial monitoring. Improvements in artificial intelligence (AI) sensors, communication systems, propulsion technologies, and battery systems are helping drones perform better. These technology improvements also support wider use of advanced UAV (drone) platforms across different industries.

"Logistics & transportation segment to grow at the highest CAGR between 2026 and 2031"

By end-use industry, the logistics & transportation segment is anticipated to record the highest CAGR in the UAV (drone) market during the forecast period, driven by the growing use of drones for last-mile delivery, cargo transport, inventory monitoring, and warehouse operations. Increasing demand for faster delivery services and efficient logistics operations is encouraging companies to adopt drone-based solutions. Advancements in autonomous navigation, payload capacity, and real-time tracking are further supporting the adoption of UAVs (drones) in logistics and transportation.

"High-compute/AI-enabled UAVs segment captured the largest market share in 2025"

By compute technology, the high-compute/AI-enabled UAVs segment accounted for the largest share of the UAV (drone) market in 2025.
