The outbreak of the COVID-19 had spread an alarming message that resulted in the temporary pause of everyday activities as regulated by the regional government. The implementation of lockdown and strict regulations on the movement of individuals were imposed to control the spread of the virus and on the other hand, the government emphasized sanitization, cleanliness.
The shutdown of industries leads to the growth of unemployment in all sectors affecting the production capacity. Further, the manufacturers and suppliers in various regions were heavily impacted due to the shortage of logistics as the import and export of materials was on a temporary pause between countries. Such factors had influenced the growth of small spy drone sales.
The U.S. is one of the largest markets for small spy drones globally. Demand for small spy drones will be led by the aerospace and defense sector. The presence of favorable government, high economy, and rising demand for advanced and modern technology-based equipment are likely to grow the demand for small spy drones in the countries of North America.
For instance, in 2020 AeroVironment Inc. had signed a three-part contract with NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA). The contract includes logistics support for Raven™, Wasp™, and Puma™ tactical UAS. The contract is a multi-year partnership with a budget value of US$80 Mn. Such factors are likely to gain the attention of investors and create various opportunities for the growth of the small spy drone industry.
With the rapidly advancing technology, sectors like entertainment, film production, and music production have experienced vast opportunities to provide the viewer a better and more experience that is realistic and the countries of Europe have majorly contributed to such sectors, growing the sales of small spy drones.
In addition, during the COVID-19 challenges, most European countries have maintained a steady defense expenditure in 2020. Countries of Europe especially Germany and UK are projected to be the major contributors to the small spy drone industry.
The UK announced in November 2020 that it would be increasing its defense spending by US$ 22 billion in the next four years. Italy and France too will increase their defense spending in 2021, creating opportunities for component and material suppliers.
