Counter UAS Market Size Expected to Grow at a CAGR over 28.50% from 2018 to 2024
Global Counter-UAS Market.
Overview
Global Counter-UAS Market is
expected to reach USD 2,235.1 Million by 2024, expanding at a CAGR
of 28.50% during the forecast period.
The counter-UAS providers are investing heavily in advanced technologies
to offer enhanced security and detection capabilities to the armed forces. For
instance, the SkyWall 100 system by Counter Drone Solutions, an Australia-based
company, has an onboard artificial intelligence (AI) computer that can identify
a drone and analyze its movements to ensure capture. This shoulder-mounted
system uses compressed air to fire a net, which ensures that the drone doesn’t
break as it guides back down to ground. The SkyWall 100 can be reloaded quickly
and easily to capture multiple drones in less time.
Segmental Analysis
The global counter-UAS market has been segmented by technology,
platform, system configuration, end use, and application.
By technology, the global counter-UAS market has been segmented into
laser systems, kinetic systems, and electronic systems. The electronic systems
segment is projected to dominate the market during the forecast period. The
segment was valued at USD 277.2 million in 2018 and is expected
to reach USD 1,187.0 million by 2024. However, the laser
systems segment is anticipated to expand at the highest CAGR. The segment is
expected to reach USD 709.0 million by 2024, exhibiting the
highest CAGR of 30.13% during the forecast period. A laser system
is a type of directed-energy weapon (DEW) that damages its target with highly
focused energy. The use of laser systems has been increasing for countering
enemy UAS. For instance, the US Marine Corps tested a prototype for a
vehicle-mounted laser weapon that can be used by soldiers on the ground to
counter enemy drones. The kinetic system segment is projected to exhibit
a CAGR of 29.02% during the forecast period.
Based on platform, the global counter-UAS market has been divided into
air, ground, and naval. The ground segment led the market with a value of USD
271.7 million in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 1,235.8
million by 2024. Ground-based systems are designed to be used from either
stationary or mobile positions on the ground. This segment includes counter-UAS
systems that are installed at fixed sites, mobile systems, and systems mounted
on ground vehicles. The naval segment is expected to register a 28.56% CAGR
during the forecast period.
On the basis of system configuration, the global counter-UAS market has
been classified as portable, vehicle-mounted, and standalone. The standalone
segment accounted for the largest market share in 2018. However, the portable
segment is expected to register the highest CAGR of 31.92 % during
the forecast period. Portable counter-UAS systems offer benefits such as
compact size, light weight, and ease in carrying. Furthermore, these systems
can be housed in a backpack for on-the-go missions.
In terms of end use, the global counter-UAS market has been categorized
into military and defense, commercial, and homeland security. The military and
defense segment dominates the market. The segment was valued at USD
342.4 million in 2018. However, the commercial segment is expected to
register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The segment is projected
to expand at a CAGR of 31.28% during the forecast period. In
commercial environments, counter-UAS systems are used for airspace protection
at airports and stadiums.
On the basis of application, the global counter-UAS market has been
bifurcated into detection and interdiction. The detection segment has been
sub-segmented into radar, RF scanners, EO/IR, and acoustic system. The
interdiction segment is further divided into jammers, spoofing, lasers, and
nets. The interdiction segment is anticipated to expand at a higher CAGR during
the forecast period. Interdiction is a method of disrupting the operations of
detected UAS by jamming, spoofing, destroying, or catching.
Regional Analysis
By region, the global counter-UAS market has been segregated into North
America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America.
The market in North America was valued at USD 227.6 million in
2018. The presence of major market players, such as Raytheon Company,
Northrop Grumman Corporation, and Lockheed Martin Corporation, is expected to
drive the market growth in North America. The regional market is estimated to
expand at a CAGR of 27.09% during the forecast period.
Europe is projected to be a major market for counter-UAS during the
review period. The regional market is expected to reach USD 595.6
million by 2024, expanding at a CAGR of 28.21% during the
forecast period. Asia-Pacific is projected to be a key region for the market
during the review period. The market in the region is expected to reach USD
400.8 million by 2024, expanding at a CAGR of 32.87% during
the forecast period.
