The drone simulator market in MEA is expected to grow from US$ 43.69 million in 2021 to US$ 80.62 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.1% from 2021 to 2028.
Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and UAE are major economies in MEA. Wide deployment of AI is the major factor driving the growth of the MEA drone simulator market. Several businesses and start-ups are currently studying and developing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with autonomous tools driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The AI-powered simulators show the user how to deploy and control the drone in the field by plotting its expected flight path. For instance, Lockheed Martin, an aerospace, and defense juggernaut, provides the ‘Desert Hawk III’ with a simulation system, as the drone intended for field usage can be piloted by a single operator. Before takeoff, the simulation system can control the drone's predicted timing, and any issues that arise during the flight may also be handled using the system. Therefore, the market for military drones and simulators is expected to grow in the coming years.
The MEA drone simulator market is majorly affected by disruptions in supply chains during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is mainly ascribed to the closed borders of countries. Further, the demand for drones decreased in 2020 in the MEA countries. This has resulted in the loss of businesses of drone simulator manufacturers offering their products to end users in the MEA. Moreover, the demand for advanced drone components, including various types of portable drone simulator for military drone fleet and commercial aviation fleet among the drone manufacturers, military forces, and MRO service providers, decreased significantly in 2020.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the MEA drone simulator market. The MEA drone simulator market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
