This report forecasts US drone demand and shipments in US dollars at the manufacturers' level, and demand in units, to 2020.

A Market Environment section provides pertinent background on historical trends, key economic indicators, trade, demand by product type, legal and regulatory factors, and technological trends. A Segmentation and Forecasts section defines vehicle methods of lift and markets, discusses market drivers and constraints, identifies substitute products when applicable, and assesses the impact of key drivers and constraints on each vehicle method of lift and market segment over the forecast period.
