What Are The Current Leading Growth Drivers For Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Market?

The counter-unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) market growth is largely propelled by an uptick in security threats and incidents associated with drones. These threats are predominantly composed of unauthorized or harmful drone activities which jeopardize public safety, privacy protocols, and crucial infrastructure. Factors inducing such security threats and incidents involving drones include their growing accessibility and misuse, potentially resulting in unauthorized surveillance, illicit smuggling activities, and plausible attacks. Counter-UAS systems are crucial in mitigating enhanced security threats and drone-related incidents, as these systems are capable of detecting, tracking, and neutralizing rogue drones, preventing potential harm or disruption. Notably, DroneSec, an American drone threat intelligence firm, reported a surge in drone-related incidents to 2,554 in 2022, a 60% increase from the previous year. Given the escalating security threats and incidents associated with drones, it is evident that the counter-unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) market is set to experience robust growth.

What Are The Key Trends Shaping The Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Industry?

Leading businesses in the counter-unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) market have made it a priority to create sophisticated products, including radarless and electromagnetically silent systems, for increased detection and neutralization of drones. These technologies are meant to function without sending out radar signals, allowing for covert surveillance by circumventing electromagnetic emissions. For example, in April 2025, ELT Group, which is an Italian electronics firm, introduced the Kinetic Anti-drone Mobile Asset (KARMA). This rapid-deploy AI-based counter-UAS, available in mobile and stationary configurations, can detect and pinpoint small drones (class 1 and 2) using artificial intelligence to enhance sensor precision and overall protection for military and essential infrastructure. This state-of-the-art innovation comes with radarless and electromagnetically silent systems that allow the system to function without giving off detectable signals, thereby enhancing stealth detection and tracking and minimizing signals to avoid detection by adversaries.
