The growing adoption of advanced aerial robots in military operations fosters the market growth of service robots in military and defense

Service robots in the military and defense are expected to reach US$25.66 billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 10.15% during the forecast period. The growing adoption of advanced aerial robots in military operations, including attacking, rescue activities, surveillance, and others will have a tremendous impact on the global market.

Global military robots market growth is driven by a variety of factors and trends, primary of which include rising focus by major companies on product/service expansion into new and untapped domestic military robots' market, rising investments in strategic agreements, and rising competition in the market.

The military robots market observes rapid growth attributed to its increasing demand in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) in the military and defense sector. The number of war field casualties' may be considerably reduced by deploying surveillance and reconnaissance robots to fetch the area layout and associated hostile elements. Robots possess the ability to endure harsh terrain, triangulate enemy sites, sense toxic atmospheres, remotely detonate and defuse bombs, and accomplish numerous other missions that may be perilous to humans.

Most of the countries utilize the defense robotic system or are in the process of acquiring or building the technology to incorporate into military programs. These robots are used in the form of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), and unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs). Unmanned ground vehicles are robots that move on wheels or tracks and perform the function of sentry duties and examine the potential hostile location. Unmanned aerial vehicles are essentially remotely controlled or automated robots.

The use of all these robotic systems includes the same purpose of replacing or supplementing humans in battlefield situations. Deployment of autonomous or semi-autonomous robotic systems on the battlefield helps in improving military efficiency, operational performance, and accuracy.

Increasing defense budgets and growing investments in unmanned military robot systems across the globe are expected to create new market opportunities.
