DPRO•Draganfly is among leading drone providers positioned to benefit from a projected DaaS market growth from $8–10B in 2025 to over $35B by 2030 (potentially $80B by 2035). Defense agencies are increasingly outsourcing AI-powered ISR, logistics, and electronic warfare services, boosting demand for scalable drone solutions.
1. Market Growth in Drones-as-a-Service
The global DaaS market is projected to expand from $8–10 billion in 2025 to over $35 billion by 2030 and potentially $80 billion by 2035, driven by accelerated defense spending on AI-powered autonomous platforms for intelligence, surveillance, and electronic warfare. The broader military drone market is expected to reach $40 billion by 2032 from $18 billion in 2025.
2. Draganfly's Position
Draganfly is named among leading providers poised to benefit from this surge alongside AeroVironment, ZenaTech, and Palladyne AI. Its scalable drone-as-a-service offerings—covering autonomous aircraft, AI analytics, mission planning, maintenance, and secure data processing—could enhance contract opportunities with defense agencies, though specific deal disclosures remain pending.
