Which Growth Factors Are Influencing Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Market Expansion?
The autonomous underwater vehicles market is being driven by escalating investments in oceanic research and augmented defense spending. Extensive scientific research on oceans offers the necessary tools and information that enables a deeper comprehension of Earth's marine environment and atmosphere. Globally, defense systems are at the forefront of oceanographic research, utilizing human-operated, deep-sea submersibles for the retrieval of geological, biological, and archaeological finds, a task facilitated by the advent of autonomous underwater vehicles. Taking April 2022 as an example, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), a Swedish institute specializing in arms control, arms transfers and non-proliferation research, reported a substantial 9.2% surge in Russian military expenditure, amounting to roughly $86.4 billion, representing 4.1% of the country's GDP, a rise from 3.7% in 2021. Hence, global advancements in oceanic research, coupled with climbing defense expenditures, serve as key growth catalysts for the autonomous underwater vehicles market.
