Military Robots Market

Military Robots Market Research Report - Forecast to 2023
Global Military Robots Market by Payload (Sensor, Radar, Weapon, & Others), Application (Warfield,
Firefighting, Search & Rescue, Transportation, & Others), Mode of Operation (Human Operated,
Autonomous) Platform, and Region – Global Forecast to 2023.
Military robots are designed for military applications comprised of search & rescue, transportation, mine clearance, and
targeting. It is expected that combat robots have become an inherent part of military forces and would replace humans for
challenging task that involved dirty, dangerous and repetitive work. Several dangerous tasks, such as breaching enemy
obstacles are carried out by remote-controlled vehicles as it takes away the risk of the soldier’s life. Other dangerous
applications performed by military robots are reconnaissance and detecting chemical weapons. Leading military powers,
such as the U.S. and Russia, have modernized their armed forces and deployed weapons using robotics. The rise in
popularity of artificial intelligence and robotics in military applications is expected to drive the market during the forecast
period. However, there are some shortcomings in operating performance of the military robots, such as difficulty in
achieving interoperability among so many different systems and technologies.
Various well known military robots are prepared by the U.S. and Russia, such as Uran-6, Skarabei, and Sfera, for various
military functions. Uran-6 was designed for performing tasks dealing with mine-reconnaissance and area-clearance
operations, while Skarabei is designed for surveillance for underground tunnels and wells. Sfera is designed for determining
sources of noise/motion. For instance, AeroVironment UAVs, Tether Eye, a quadcopter is designed to provide surveillance
from a height of 15 feet. Similarly, Elbit Systems Ltd Inc. introduced a ViPer (Versatile, Intelligent, and Portable Robot) robots
to perform combat performance in the military field.
Emerging technologies can bring military applications to new heights. The future deployment of robots is inescapable and
will save human lives and warfare to minimize damage to resources. The Predator UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) is
probably the most well-known of these robots, having flown missions in the Middle East to eliminate terrorists. Predator
drones can also be used for monitoring and surveillance missions. These UAVs have high durability and can extend
performance beyond human limitations.
