New Visiongain Defense Industry Report Finds Global Demand On
The Rise
A new report detailing the UAV Flight Training & Simulation
Market 2011-2021 indicates that sales in the global UAV flight
training and simulation market will be worth $375 million in 2011.
Visiongain, the report's publisher, says it offers a "comprehensive
analysis of the global market for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)
operator flight training & simulation products and services,
ranging from unmanned aircraft system (UAS) simulators to live UAV
flight training courses."
Visiongain says the rapid growth in demand for the critical
intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) data provided
by UAVs has been driving procurement of new platforms and in turn
fuelling rising demand for trained operators. Governments around
the world have been investing in a range of training capabilities
in an effort to meet this demand.
The analysis demonstrates that the global UAV flight training
and simulation market is a growing marketplace offering
opportunities that could lead to a range of companies realising
commercial success, from the major global defence and security
systems integrators to specialist UAV flight training &
simulation consultancies.
As the leading operator of UAVs, the US dominates the global UAV
flight training & simulation market. But there are also
contracting opportunities in Europe and elsewhere in the world,
with armed forces struggling to expand their training capabilities
as unmanned systems technology continues to advance very
rapidly.
