The use of drones for both commercial and recreational purposes has grown exponentially in recent years. However, with the rise in drone usage also comes increased risks to privacy, security, and safety. An anti-drone system uses radar, RF sensors, and/or optical cameras to detect and intercept unmanned aircraft that pose potential threats. The anti-drone market provides solutions to organizations seeking to protect restricted airspace and secure facilities from any misuse of drones. The anti-drone technologies use different methods like disruption of communication links, use of net guns, and incorporate the principles of detect and avoidance for apprehension of rogue drones. The demand for anti-drone systems is expected to witness strong growth as regulatory bodies enforce regulations and organizations invest in countering illicit drone activities.

Market Dynamics

One of the key drivers propelling the anti-drone market is the increasing incidents of misuse of drones for illegal activities globally. Furthermore, rising safety and security concerns especially at airports, important infrastructure, and restricted areas is also fueling demand for counter drone systems. Another major factor estimated to boost the anti-drone market is the formulation of new policies and regulations by governing agencies mandating the use of anti-drone technologies in high security zones. However, budget constraints of organizations and lack of standardization of technologies is projected to hamper the market growth. On the other hand, ongoing R&D in the field of AI, jamming, and directed energy weapons is expected to provide potential opportunities for anti-drone solution providers in the coming years.
