For over a decade, major spenders such as the US, Russia, China, and the UK have made significant investments in the development and procurement of next-generation UAV platforms to strengthen their security and surveillance capabilities. Also, the growing territorial disputes between countries have resulted in increased focus on maritime warfare, obligating naval agencies to enhance their target acquisition capability and acquire advanced UAVs and associated payloads and subsystems.

Competitive vendor landscape

The global UAV payload and subsystems market is highly competitive with many prominent players competing to enhance their market share. Also, due to the stringent safety and regulatory norms, along with the requirements for superior investments, entry of new vendors is expected to get restricted during the forecast period.

Due to the rapid adoption of miniaturized UAVs in the surveillance applications, UAV components suppliers need to develop and supply cost-efficient and miniaturized payloads that can enhance the operation capability of small UAVs,” says Moutushi Saha, a lead defense research analyst from Technavio.

Companies with superior technical and financial resources can bring substantial changes in the existing payloads and subsystems, which will help them to recoup the development costs in shorter development cycle time. The smaller companies can establish collaborations to compete with existing prominent vendors.
