The UAV market

US DoD investment in UAS R+D, FY05-FY09

Indications of expenditure on UAVs from uav_roadmap2005.pdf

The above projection suggests a 28.4% year-on-year increase in US DoD spending from the year 2000, to at least the year 2010. Given this tremendous, albeit planned, expenditure, it makes sense to keep track of developments in the military UAV area, to enable any relevant developments to be applied to UAVs for use in civilian applications.

Illustration of DoD view of the increasing usage of unmanned aircraft.
