Military Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) Market Size and Trend Analysis including Segments (Combat UGV, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) UGV, Logistics UGV, Explosives and Mine Disposal UGV), Key Programs, Competitive Landscape and Forecast, 2022-2032 report provides the market size forecast and the estimated Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the next ten years. The report covers industry analysis, including the key market drivers, trends, emerging technologies, and major challenges faced by industry participants. It also offers insights regarding key factors and government programs that are expected to influence the demand for the military UGV market over the forecast period.
The evolving nature of urban warfare and the growth in technological advancements have enabled militaries to develop and utilize different-sized UGVs to support a variety of combat and support missions. Furthermore, the developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and communication technologies allow further expansion of their use in complex scenarios in contested and disruptive environments. It will also continue to transform military equipment and tactics, especially with the integration of combat UGVs into force structures and future land operations. Countries such as the US, India, China, and Israel are investing huge amounts in the development of advanced UGVs as part of their military modernization efforts, which is expected to drive procurements in the coming decade. The North American region is expected to lead investment in the sector globally, exhibiting a steady pace of growth over the forecast period.
The Combat UGV segment is anticipated to be the largest segment in the global military UGV market between 2022 and 2032. Combat UGVs are strategically designed to minimize the loss of personnel, including the cost that comes with having to lose a main battle tank. These vehicles operate autonomously and detect and eliminate threats from a distance. Such advantages offered by these UGVs are expected to drive their procurement over the forecast period. According to Harshavardhan D, Defense Analyst at the publisher, 'The modernization initiatives undertaken by the major militaries across the globe are anticipated to play a major role in the growth of the UGV market over the next decade. With UGV technologies slowly progressing towards maturity, countries are increasing their R&D spending on the development of sophisticated UGVs that can execute complex operations. While this helps the militaries to reduce their reliance on foreign vendors for novel technologies, it also offers considerable export opportunities as the local players can enjoy first mover advantage in several untapped markets for UGVs. '
North American region is expected to dominate the global military UGV market between 2022 and 2032. The US has been the predominant spender on UGV development and procurement over the years. The country is involved in several geopolitical conflicts involving urban and asymmetric warfare far from its territory, which is why it has been deploying UGVs to reduce soldier casualties. A major chunk of the investment from the US will be going into the acquisition of Combat UGVs, followed by logistics and ISR UGVs. The country is also currently acquiring explosives and mine disposal UGVs from local manufacturers.
