The military and law enforcement segment of the UAV flight training and simulation market had the highest share in 2019. It was mainly due to the growth of the military role of UAVs at unprecedented rates by economically developing countries. There are more than 32 countries, engaged in the development and manufacturing of more than 300 models of UAVs, of which, these nations use around 80-100 UAVs for military and defense purposes. The development of new models with advanced military capabilities is expected to generate demand for advanced UAV training and simulation. However, the civil and commercial segment is expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This is majorly due to the growing applications of UAVs, like the delivery of parcels, medicines, and other commercial applications, along with the stringent rules for flying a UAV or drone in the city or states, demanding better trained remote pilots. This need for trained pilots is fueling the growth of the UAV flight training and simulation devices.

The North American segment is currently dominating the market and is expected to continue to dominate the market during the forecast period. This growth is primarily due to the increasing use of UAVs for military operations like intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) mission, combat and other missions by the United States. Also, ongoing tests and trials by the US companies for the use of drones for deliveries of medical equipment and packages are expected to drive the growth in North America during the forecast period.
