Global Fixed-wing VTOL UAV Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2028

Market Analysis and Insights: Global Fixed-wing VTOL UAV Market

The fixed-wing VTOL UAV market is expected to witness market growth at a rate of 19.6% in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028. Data Bridge Market Research report on fixed-wing VTOL UAV market provides analysis and insights regarding the various factors expected to be prevalent throughout the forecast period while providing their impacts on the market’s growth. The expansion of the automotive sector globally is escalating the growth of fixed-wing VTOL UAV market.

A fixed-wing VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing) UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) refers to a fixed wing drone that is capable of taking off, flying and landing vertically as well as hover in place. These drones can independently and safely take off and land vertically with highly sensitive sensors on a small area. They are known to perform effectively in the most difficult terrain with minimal noise.

The increase in use of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs in military applications acts as one of the major factor driving the growth of the fixed-wing VTOL UAV market. The rise in deployment of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs to carry out aerial remote sensing, and increase in popularity of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs in military applications accelerate the market growth. The rise in the popularity of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs in life-threatening military missions, and use of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs in advanced patrolling of marine borders further influence the market. Additionally, growth of the heavy engineering industry, use of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs in life-threatening military missions, rapid urbanization and use of modern warfare techniques positively affect the fixed-wing VTOL UAV market. Furthermore, use of fixed-wing VTOL UAVs for cargo delivery in military and commercial applications, and technological developments in the field of drone payloads extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028.

• On the other hand, restrictions imposed on the commercial use of UAVs in various countries and threats to safety and violation of privacy are expected to obstruct the market growth. Lack of skilled & trained personnel to operate fixed-wing VTOL UAVs and lack of proper air traffic management for UAVs are projected to challenge the fixed-wing VTOL UAV market in the forecast period of 2021-2028.
