At 38.4% CAGR, the North America Tethered Drones Market is projected to be worth US$ 231.67 million by 2028, says Business Market Insights           

According to Business Market Insights’ research, the North America tethered drones’ market was valued at US$ 32.99 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 231.67 million by 2028, registering an annual growth rate of 38.4% from 2022 to 2028. Increasing demand for long operational ISR drones for military applications and development of tethered drones for commercial applications.               

The growing focus of armed forces for communications, security, and ISR operations where drones have the capability to be rapidly deployed to establish robust channels and cover broad areas is one of the major factors propelling the adoption of tethered drone systems across the North America. The battery-operated UAV systems deployed across the military forces provide a limited time service for respective operations which is one of the major challenges faced by the military forces. Tethered drones provide almost unlimited power supply and allows the drone to operate for a longer time and support the military operations for the desired period. Several military forces are collaborating with different tethered drone vendors to develop and deploy advanced tethered drones for their critical mission needs. Furthermore, the field camps and command vehicles are among the most important assets for military operations. Tethered drones provide the safety of these equipment during a military operation. As such equipment have their own radio signatures that can be detected by other detecting technologies, tethered drones help to reduce their radio signature by providing lower visual signals to the moving assets that also helps in procuring the information from the operational locations more safely while performing the objectives. Such mission calls for tethered drones which is likely to propel the procurement and deployment of tethered drones across different military forces North America which is driving the tethered drone market growth. This is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.

On the contrary, higher weight of cables decreases the operational efficiency of tethered drone hurdles the growth of North America tethered drone’s market.
