The key stakeholders in the military drone market are raw material suppliers, component suppliers, military drones manufacturers & software integrators, and end users. Raw material suppliers play a major role in the military drone market. As the material sourcing and operations of the raw material suppliers were affected, the demand and supply gap increased among the raw material suppliers and component manufacturers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the raw material suppliers have faced several supply chain challenges in procuring transportation services, difficulties in internal production operations due to several factors such as lack of manpower and other resources, along with several remote operational challenges. All these factors have increased the demand and supply gap between raw material suppliers and battery manufacturers across the globe and has impacted the military drone market growth during FY 2020.
The raw material supplier provides raw materials such as lithium, polymers, nickel alloys, metal alloys, and composite materials to military drone component manufacturers to produce different parts of the military drones which is then supplied to the military drone manufacturing companies. Drone manufacturing companies utilize these components to assemble and integrate with different types of software suites to produce the final military drone products. A few of the key global military drones providers operating in the market include Lockheed Martin Corp, Northrop Grumman Corp, Thales SA, Boeing Co, Elbit Systems Ltd, General Atomics, Textron Systems Corp, BAE Systems Plc, AeroVironment Inc, and Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd
