A recent report published by
Infinium Global Research on the vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAV market
provides an in-depth analysis of segments and sub-segments in the global as well
as regional vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAV market. The study also
highlights the impact of drivers, restraints, and macro indicators on the
global and regional vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAV market over the
short term as well as long term. The report is a comprehensive presentation of
trends, forecasts, and dollar values of the global vertical take-off and landing (VTOL)
UAV market. According to the report, the global vertical take-off and landing (VTOL)
UAV market are projected to grow at a CAGR of about 20% over the forecast period
of 2022-2028.
The revenue generated by the vertical
take-off and landing (VTOL) UAV market was around USD 7 billion in 2022 and is
expected to reach over USD 20 billion in 2028 and is expected to grow with a
CAGR of about 20% over the forecast period 2022-2028. Vertical take-off and
landing are referred to as VTOL. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that can fly,
hover, and land vertically, like a helicopter, are described. Multicopter
drones are the type of VTOL UAV that is most prevalent. The other varieties of VTOL
UAVs combine the capacity to hover with a traditional wing configuration for
cruise flight. All multicopter drones and some hybrid fixed-wing aircraft fall
under this category. These types of VTOL UAVs can be launched from anywhere
without the prior requirement of a runway, which makes them highly applicable
in a range of operations from surveying and mapping to defense, search and
rescue, and others. Also, these drones are light in weight as compared to STOL
UAVs and are easier to mobilise. The VTOL UAV is available in different shapes
and sizes.
With the spread of the COVID-19
pandemic, VTOL UAVs have played an essential role in managing the situation.
Further, the situation has created innovative opportunities for the VTOL UAV
market. With the COVID-19 lockdown, the e-commerce industry around the world
has witnessed an increase in user engagement. As the COVID-19 outbreak has
forced millions of people across the country to spend more time at home, the
online shopping business has sprung into action to cater to the rising demand.
Quickly changing consumer demands, growing demand for shorter delivery times, a
rise in online shopping, and fierce competition among online retailing
companies have augmented the demand for VTOL UAVs. The only problem faced
during the pandemic was the supply of VTOL UAVs to the end users due to supply
chain disruptions.
The military and civil/commercial
applications of VTOL UAVs are growing rapidly. The VTOL UAV offers numerous
advantages, such as the ability to take off vertically without any prior
runway. In the military, VTOL UAVs are being used for intelligence gathering, reconnaissance,
and surveillance purposes. The miniature VTOL UAVs can be carried by tactical
teams in the field and used conveniently when the need arises. Similarly, the
civil/commercial applications of VTOL UAVs are growing in the fields of
agriculture, retail, e-commerce, construction, and others. VTOL UAVs can be used
for precision agriculture, package delivery, aerial mapping, and many other
such use cases. The integration of AI in VTOL UAVs is growing at a rapid pace,
which is enabling them to operate autonomously with minimal human intervention,
as well as the AI integration with VTOL UAVs has increased the capacity of its
applications such as aerial mapping, surveying, object detection, and others.
Limited air traffic management and stringent regulations are expected to
restrain the growth of the market. The launch of innovative products is
expected to boost growth opportunities in the market.
The global vertical take-off and
landing UAV market is segmented into North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, and
the RoW region. North America dominated the vertical take-off and landing UAV
market in terms of revenue. Sectors such as agriculture, healthcare, retail,
e-commerce, and construction are using VTOL UAVs for a range of applications.
These applications include precision agriculture, topography mapping, aerial
mapping, package deliveries, and many others. Predominantly, the defense has been
the largest user of VTOL UAVs in North America. UAV air traffic management
systems are being devised and are in the process of adoption, which offers
numerous Companies such as The Boeing Company, Lockheed Martin Corporation,
Textron Inc., and others offer VTOL UAVs for the military as well as civil
applications. Startups offering innovative VTOL UAVs are emerging in North
America. regulatory framework for growth opportunities in North America.
Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region in the market. Many
companies in Asia-Pacific, such as ZDI Technology Co., Ltd., offer VTOL UAVs
and their use is growing in different domains.
