战斗无人机市场机会、成长动力、产业趋势分析及 2025 - 2034 年预测

2024 年全球战斗无人机市场价值为 74 亿美元，预计到 2034 年将以 8.9% 的复合年增长率增长至 173 亿美元。

这一激增是由多种因素推动的，包括军队的现代化建设、国防开支的增加以及人工智慧 (AI)、感测器和自主技术的快速发展。随着新兴经济体优先考虑国防现代化，大量资源被分配用于无人作战航空系统的研发。这些努力使各国能够保持与主要军事强国的竞争力，同时也受惠于先进的无人机技术。配备隐形和低可探测技术的作战无人机正日益受到青睐，使军队能够在高威胁环境中作战，同时躲避复杂防空系统的探测。此外，由于协同无人机可以更有效地渗透和摧毁敌方防御，因此蜂群无人机战术的使用也越来越流行。

预计到2034年，固定翼无人机市场规模将达102亿美元。固定翼无人机尤其受到青睐，因为它们拥有更长的续航里程、更高的有效载荷能力，并且更适合执行远程打击和监视任务。预计该领域在北美和亚洲等地区的应用将会成长，因为这些地区已经将固定翼无人机用于边境巡逻和大规模行动。为了保持竞争力，製造商必须专注于增强隐身性能，并整合先进的情报、监视和侦察 (ISR) 负载。

2024年，20公斤至100公斤重量级无人机的市占率为37.6%。由于便携性和价格实惠，该重量级无人机越来越多地用于侦察和精确打击等战术任务。对于那些国防预算有限、寻求经济高效的军队现代化解决方案的国家来说，这些系统极具吸引力。製造商需要专注于生产紧凑型、人工智慧驱动、高效且价格合理的无人机，以满足这些发展中市场的需求。

2024年，美国作战无人机市场规模达28亿美元，这得益于雄厚的国防预算、无人机的广泛应用以及下一代无人作战飞机（UCAV）研发的持续创新。美国在无人机集群技术和人工智慧驱动的自主性方面也保持领先地位。进入该市场的公司必须与美国国防现代化进程保持一致，专注于能够融入当前和未来军事战略的可扩展无人机系统。

战斗无人机市场的主要参与者包括诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司、通用原子航空系统公司、以色列航太公司 (IAI)、雷神技术公司、埃尔比特系统公司、莱昂纳多公司、波音公司、AeroVironment公司和空中巴士公司等公司。这些公司在开发尖端无人机技术方面处于领先地位，并致力于满足军事行动中日益增长的无人机系统需求。他们的市场策略专注于将创新的人工智慧、自主能力和隐身功能融入其产品中。各公司也大力投资研发，以保持领先于不断变化的国防需求，同时与政府机构建立战略合作伙伴关係，以配合国防优先事项。

The Global Combat Drones Market was valued at USD 7.4 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% to reach USD 17.3 billion by 2034.

This surge is driven by several factors, including modernization efforts in military forces, increased defense spending, and rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), sensors, and autonomous technologies. As emerging economies prioritize defense modernization, significant resources are being allocated for the development of unmanned combat aerial systems. These efforts allow nations to stay competitive with major military powers while benefiting from advanced drone technologies. Combat drones equipped with stealth and low-observable technologies are gaining traction, enabling military forces to operate in high-threat environments while evading detection by sophisticated air defense systems. Additionally, the use of swarm drone tactics is becoming increasingly popular, as coordinated UAVs can infiltrate and neutralize enemy defenses more effectively.

The fixed-wing drone segment is expected to reach USD 10.2 billion by 2034. Fixed-wing drones are particularly favored due to their longer operational range, enhanced payload capacity, and suitability for long-range strike and surveillance missions. The segment's adoption is expected to rise in regions like North America and Asia, where they are already used for border patrols and mass operations. Manufacturers must focus on enhancing stealth features and incorporating advanced intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) payloads to remain competitive.

The 20 kg to 100 kg weight class segment held a 37.6% share in 2024. Drones within this weight range are increasingly used for tactical missions such as reconnaissance and precision strikes due to their portability and affordability. These systems are attractive to nations with limited defense budgets seeking cost-effective solutions for modernizing their armed forces. Manufacturers will need to focus on producing compact, AI-powered drones that are both effective and affordable for these developing markets.

United States Combat Drones Market generated USD 2.8 billion in 2024, driven by a robust defense budget, extensive use of drones, and ongoing innovation in the development of next-generation unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs). The U.S. also remains a leader in swarm technology and AI-driven autonomy in drones. Companies entering the market must align with U.S. defense modernization efforts, focusing on scalable drone systems that can integrate into both current and future military strategies.

Key players in the combat drones market include companies like Northrop Grumman, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Raytheon Technologies, Elbit Systems, Leonardo, Boeing, AeroVironment, and Airbus. These companies are at the forefront of developing cutting-edge drone technologies and meeting the growing demand for unmanned aerial systems in military operations. Their market strategies focus on incorporating innovative AI, autonomous capabilities, and stealth features into their products. Companies also invest heavily in R&D to stay ahead of evolving defense needs while fostering strategic partnerships with government agencies to align with national defense priorities.
