Large AUVs to lead the global autonomous underwater vehicle market between 2017 and 2023
Large AUVs held the largest share of the autonomous underwater vehicle market in 2016; the market for autonomous underwater vehicles is expected to grow at a high rate between 2017 and 2023. The capability of large AUVs to operate at great depths (more than 1,000 m) makes them suitable for oceanography, habitat research, search and salvage operations, and other applications. Apart from these, large autonomous underwater vehicles are widely adopted for mine countermeasure applications in the military & defense sector. These factors are contributing to the growth of the market for large AUVs.
Military & defense applications to hold the largest share of the AUV market in 2017
The market for military & defense applications is expected to witness a high growth between 2017 and 2023. Countries such as the US, Canada, France, and China are widely adopting autonomous underwater vehicles for military & defense applications, such as border security and surveillance, antisubmarine warfare, monitoring of smuggling of illegal goods, environmental assessment, and mine countermeasures. However, among all the applications, the market for archeological and exploration applications is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period.
AUV market in APAC is to grow at the highest rate between 2017 and 2023
