What Is Loitering Munition?
Loitering munition, also known as 'kamikaze drones' or 'suicide drones,' are unmanned aerial weapons designed to loiter over a target area, search for targets, and then attack once a target is located or command is given. They are designed to search for and engage targets, offering flexibility in attack timing and target selection, unlike cruise missiles that typically have a pre-programmed flight path. Some examples of loitering munitions include the Switchblade (drone) Lancet, and Geran-2 (also known as Shahed 136), used by Russia. Loitering munitions are being used in various conflicts, including the war in Ukraine, and are also being developed for roles such as long-range strikes, fire support, and short-range tactical systems.
Growth Drivers:
• The increasing need for precise strikes and progress in autonomous technology are fueling market expansion.
• The rising demand for affordable, efficient substitutes for conventional guided missiles is contributing to market growth.
• The rising need for accurate strikes in contemporary warfare fuels the growth of the loitering munition market.
• Increasing defense budgets, particularly in nations aimed at modernizing their armed forces, also plays a role in the growth of this market.
