The UAS Flight Training & Simulation Market 2011-2021 Report from Visiongain offers a comprehensive analysis of the global market for UAS operator flight training and simulation products and services. Visiongain’s calculations indicate that sales in the global UAS flight training and simulation market will be worth $375m in 2011.
Rapid growth in demand for the critical intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) data provided by UAS has been driving procurement of new platforms and in turn fuelling rising demand for trained operators. Governments around the world have been investing in a range of training capabilities in an effort to meet this demand.
Visiongain’s analysis demonstrates that the global UAS flight training and simulation market is a growing marketplace offering opportunities that could lead to a range of companies realising commercial success, from the major global defence and security systems integrators to specialist UAS flight training and simulation consultancies.
As the leading operator of UAS, the US dominates the global UAS flight training and simulation market. But there are also contracting opportunities in Europe and elsewhere in the world, with armed forces struggling to expand their training capabilities as unmanned systems technology continues to advance very rapidly.

“One witty question asked by a friend — is the world running out of flight instructors that’s why we have a lot of operator flight training and simulation products? Could that be tantamount to actual practice?”
