IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON TACTICAL UAVS MARKET
In 2020, COVID-19 had become a global pandemic, resulting in nationwide lockdowns and economic slowdown. Multiple aspects of life have been impacted by this circumstance, ranging from consumer products to industrial activity. National and international transportation has been delayed as a result of the various countries' lockdowns, which has had a substantial influence on the tactical UAVs supply chain around the world, widening the supply-demand imbalance. As a result, insufficient raw material supply is predicted to slow down the manufacturing rate of these systems, reducing market growth. Furthermore, as a result of COVID-19's consequences, the manufacturing procedures for tactical UAVs have severely slowed. This is due to production halts and interrupted supply chains, which have impacted the market's global operations and revenue. However, the situation is anticipated to improve as governments around the world begin to reduce regulations to allow businesses to resume operations in 2021. For instance, in April 2021, the German Government approved a US$ 3.59 billion worth contract to develop a European military drone. Airbus, Dassault, and Leonardo are expected to build the drone. The German military will receive 12 ground control stations, 21 drones, and four simulators from the joint project with France, Spain, and Italy, with delivery, anticipated to start in 2030. Further, in January 2021, IdeaForge received a contract from the Indian government of approximately US$ 20 million for undisclosed quantities of a high-altitude variant of ideaForge's SWITCH UAV, delivered over one year. Such developments, procurements, and contracts of new drones for the defense forces are anticipated to drive the growth of tactical UAVs in the coming years (2022-2028).
