- Thematic Research – Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
Report 1: Thematic Research – CBRNE Defense
The global chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosives (CBRNE) defense market size was $12.5 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 4% during 2021-2025. The CBRNE defense market can be categorized into CBRNE detection, CBRNE protection, CBRNE decontamination, CBRNE disposal, and CBRNE simulation and training. With increasing CBRNE threats coupled with the countries’ efforts on peacekeeping missions, the investment in CBRNE detection is expected to witness the highest level of global spending. Breakthrough technologies such as AI, the IoT, advanced materials, nanotechnology, and remote sensing will be leveraged in novel CBRNE solutions in order to decrease reaction time against the threats and mitigate their adverse effects. To maintain emergency response readiness, countries are expected to invest substantially in CBRNE simulation and training activities for all departments of the armed forces as well as for internal security organizations.
Report 2: Thematic Report – High Intensity Warfare 2022
The concept of high intensity warfare (HIW) entails geopolitical and socio-economic turmoil on such a scale that all areas of global trade are at risk of feeling the detrimental impacts of such a conflict. There is also an issue of scale, as a HIW scenario has the potential to remain geographically limited in its immediate scope, as seen with the brief conflicts in Georgia in 2008 or Nagorno-Karabakh in 2020, while also having the potential to gradually escalate into an armed conflict on a larger scale, as we are noticing in the Russian invasion of Ukraine in Europe. It is for this reason that understanding the HIW theme is critical to anticipating the immediate impacts of a conflict for both clients and suppliers within the global defense market. Companies with a seemingly niche product portfolio or expertise can see significant shifts in demand and return on investment as factions engaged in high intensity warfare develop creative means of deploying those solutions in new domains or scenarios. The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has provided several stark examples of this, including the use of Bayraktar TB-2 UCAVs to hunt surface vessels or the adaptation of the fighter-launched Brimstone Air-to-Surface Missile (ASM) to function as a Surface-to-Surface Missile (SSM) fired from makeshift platforms.
Report 3: Thematic Research: Loitering Munitions
Loitering munitions are a rapidly expanding segment within unmanned systems and munitions. Their ability to stay on target until a target has been acquired is what makes them especially useful for military operations. While loitering munitions have been in use for several decades, their use has increased significantly in the past years, with the coming decade expected to see unprecedented growth in the market. The loitering munitions market will benefit from increased modularity, increased use of artificial intelligence (AI), use of swarm technology, and increased sensor capabilities in the next ten years. Cobra, a Ukraine-based company, has developed a C-UAS drone that has interchangeable warheads as well as four different operating modes. Its ability to be fitted with kamikaze, kinetic, or reusable effectors will make it a viable competitor in several markets.
Report 4: Thematic Research – Hydrogen Aircraft
To facilitate the development of hydrogen aircraft, investment in key technologies ranging from fuselages to hydrogen fuel cells will need to be revamped. Several companies are investing in this space but more research is needed to achieve the efficacy needed to enable widespread commercial aviation powered by hydrogen. There is a mainstream investment in the development of passenger aircraft for the commercial market on this technology and manufacturers including Airbus are working on it. Whilst the technology is mostly in the concept phase, steps are being taken to advance the specific technologies which will facilitate commercial use in the future.
Report 5: Thematic Research – Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
GlobalData expects the global unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) market to be worth $750.5 million in 2030, up from $525.1 million in 2020. The demand for UUVs is expected to be driven by the autonomous MCM capability enhancement and distributed fleet structure initiatives undertaken by the US, China, Russia, the UK and France. Atlas Elektronik is a leading manufacturer of unmanned surface and underwater vehicles such as SeaFox, Cobra, SeaCat and ARCIMS. In January 2021, the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) awarded a £25 million contract to Atlas Elektronik UK to deliver three autonomous uncrewed minesweeping systems to the Royal Navy. As per reports, the Navy is eager to be on the front line of innovation and is pushing to integrate new technologies and the digitization of its fleet to prepare for the future operating environment.
