APAC Anti-Drone Market Business Data
According to P&S Intelligence, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) anti-drone market is expected to generate a revenue of $2,105 million by 2025. The security issues caused by unsanctioned drones as well as a rise in illegal and terrorist activities are projected to be the key growth factors. A citable example of the menace caused by unregularized drones would be that of Tokyo, where a man, who was against the nuclear policy of Japan, purposely crashed a drone, filled with radioactive sand from the ill-fated Fukushima nuclear power plant, on the Prime Minister’s office in 2015.
Traditional kinetic counter-drones, electronic counter-drones, and laser counter-drones are the three categories when the Asia-Pacific anti-drone market is segmented by technology. Among these, counter-drones that work on electronic technology are predicted to lead the domain in the near future. Compared to laser drones, the electronic variants were adopted significantly sooner in the region, but manufacturers are now working toward developing technologically advanced laser counter-drones.
Major anti-drone manufacturers in the APAC region are focusing on developing technologically advanced variants and improving their current portfolios to gain an edge on their competitors. Further, several of the Asia-Pacific anti-drone market players are entering into collaborations to expand their reach. DroneShield Limited, The Boeing Company, SZ DJI Technology Co. Ltd., Leonardo DRS, Thales S.A., Raytheon Company, Saab AB, Airbus SE, Liteye Systems Inc., Northrop Grumman Corporation, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd., Rheinmetall AG, Blighter Surveillance Systems Ltd., and Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. are the major market players.
