FAQ ABOUT Drone Manufacturers Ranking 2021 Report

What makes the top Drone Manufacturers Ranking different from other reports?

Unlike other reports, our top Drone Manufacturers Ranking provides a brief and straightforward ranking of the top manufacturers in two categories: civil drones and dual-use drones. There is less macroeconomic data and statistics and more focus on particular companies and their products. In addition, the report dives into company profiles with estimated employees, revenue, funding and a brief descriptions as well as the main industries that they operate in.

What are Civil Drone Manufacturers?

Manufacturers of civil drones either produce drones for commercial purposes (e.g. drones used in the energy, construction, agriculture or transport industry) and/or for private individuals for hobby flights.

What are Dual-Use Drone Manufacturers?

Dual-use drone manufacturers manufacture drones for commercial and military markets. Manufacturers of purely military drones are not included in this category.

Why do you differentiate the rankings between the two?

In the simplest of terms: the influence of government investments. It is important to draw a distinction between civil drones and dual-use drones for the purpose of a manufacturer ranking because companies that build drones under government contracts are able to receive more funding and produce more units. The attention they receive because of this (which forms part of the ranking) would also affect their ranking if they were to be put into the same category as companies who do not receive military government contracts.
