Global Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) Market was Valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2023 and is Expected to Reach USD 3.9 billion by 2030, Observing a CAGR of 13.0% during 2025 - 2030

Published Date: Mar, 2024

The global unmanned surface vehicle (USV) market was valued at USD 1.5 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 3.9 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 13.0% during 2025-2030. In the present scenario, climate change, pollution, and other factors are immensely harming and polluting the ocean and endangering its marine life. Oceanography aims to study the oceans and helps in predicting the contamination in the ocean or any other activity as a result of which unmanned surface vehicle market gaining popularity globally to attain this objective.

The global unmanned surface vehicle (USV) market is expected to witness the highest growth in the defense sector

Based on application, the global unmanned surface vehicle (USV) market is subdivided into defense and commercial. Amongst these segments, defense is expected to witness higher growth during the forecast period. The defense sector needs to identify probable threats and occurrences that could be national dangers as a result of USV gaining greater acceptance in this sector.
