BVLOS UAV (Drone) Market worth $25.32 billion by 2030

The BVLOS UAV (Drone) Market is expected to grow from USD 15.36 billion in 2025 to USD 25.32 billion by 2030 at a CAGR of 10.5%. The growth is due to the strong use of lightweight platforms in the under 150 kg MTOW category, which continues to hold the largest share of the market. The market is also expanding as fully autonomous features become more common, helping improve long-range mission efficiency, automated mission execution, and real-time decision-making in BVLOS operations. Improvements in autonomous navigation, onboard computing, and long-endurance performance are further pushing the adoption of BVLOS UAVs.
