Middle East and Africa Small Unmanned Surface Vehicles Market Forecast to 2028 - COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis By Size (1-2 M, >2-4 M, and >4-6 M), Payload (Sonars, Camera, GPS, SATCOM, and Others), and Application (Defense, Scientific Research, Disaster Management, Hydrography, and Others)
The MEA small unmanned surface vehicles market is expected to grow from US$ 19.22 million in 2021 to US$ 32.86 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.0% from 2021 to 2028.
Asymmetric threats in the maritime domain are a risk that can rear attackers' heads when least expected to unleash death and destruction to life and property. There is a rise in the deployment of advance technologies in small unmanned surface vehicles from military and defense sectors, such as Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), Mine Counter Measures (MCM), and Anti-Submarine warfare, due to increasing asymmetric threats. The rapid pace of globalization in the recent past has seen growth in trade and commerce rise drastically, 90% of which is attributed to shipping. Several countries are striving to gain more control on maritime trade routes and maritime assets, such as underwater oil reserves and other offshore resources. Also, traditional geopolitical disputes are increasing, which propels the demand for constant and efficient maritime surveillance by all countries. Marine insecurity is compounding the terrorist threat. Therefore, there is a rise in the demand for small unmanned surface vehicles for maritime security. In addition, maritime shipping and infrastructure are among the sources of a nation’s commercial interest and qualify as a potential target of interest for terrorists. Terror attacks against maritime targets in the past have been quite diverse. Perpetrators of past incidents carried out attacks with differing motives. Countries are expected to invest large sums in small unmanned surface vehicles over the forecast period due to territorial conflicts and recently developed indigenous capabilities. All these factors are expected to drive the growth of the MEA small unmanned surface vehicles market in the coming years.
In case of COVID-19, MEA is highly affected especially South Africa. The Middle East is an important oil-producing region in the world that includes the countries such as Saudi Arabia and the UAE. The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the economies in this region to many additional challenges as most of countries faced a slack in the transportation operations, dip in goods demands, and disruptions in supply chain operations in FY 2020. Moreover, UAE was estimated to be the largest market for small USVs in the Middle East & Africa region in FY 2020, according to the research study. Irrespective of the pandemic-related challenges, the rising demand for unmanned surface vehicles for safety & rescue operations across most of the tourists’ places in UAE and Saudi Arabia has been driving the market so far. Post-COVID, as the tourism sector is expected to regain its growth rapidly which will aid in the further growth of safety & rescue USVs across the region. Moreover, the oil & gas industry in Saudi Arabia and UAE is also expected to adopt the technology owing to rising deployment of automation technologies across the industry post COVID-19 pandemic.
With the new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the MEA small unmanned surface vehicles market. The MEA small unmanned surface vehicles market is expected to grow at a good CAGR during the forecast period.
