Key Market Trends
ISR Segment to Experience the Highest Growth During the Forecast Period
The Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) segment of the market studied is expected to record the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance form a vital part of every military complex operations. The success of military missions largely depends on platforms for ISR missions, and to cater to this need, defense companies are working closely with government agencies for the development of UGVs that are likely to play a vital role by providing combatants with additional surveillance and reconnaissance support. Also, the integration of advanced in technology with UGVs for better data acquisition and target identification has become another major investment area for the companies. In 2018, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) developed a hybrid ground and air robotic system for border patrol, reconnaissance, and surveillance defense system, which combines land and aerial capabilities. The new system supports a variety of complex missions, including intelligence, reconnaissance, and surveillance, ambushes, target detection, and remote threat neutralization. Such developments in UGVs to support ISR missions are propelling the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
Middle-East and Africa Region to Experience the Highest Growth During the Forecast Period
The Middle-East and Africa region is anticipated to experience the highest growth rate during the forecast period. The Middle East & African countries are investing in modern defense, security, and infrastructure technologies. This has also led to various robotics companies to seize the opportunity for unmanned ground vehicles. Various companies in Israel, Qatar, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, among others, are partnering with the major ground vehicle manufacturers to develop autonomous UGVs that will provide explosive devices' removal assistance, help in reconnaissance missions and ammunition transportation, and carry weapons to support combat missions. For instance, in early 2017, International Golden Group (IGG), an Abu Dhabi-based company, signed a co-operation deal with Milrem Robotics for developing and arming unmanned ground vehicles (UGV). The increasing investments by the governments and companies of the region are acting as a major factor for the region's growth during the forecast period.
