How are the Global Investments Driving Military Robotics Systems Market?

For FY 2022, four Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Programs from the Navy and Marine Corps top the list of requested funding. They are:

  • The Marine Group 5 UAS program worth USD 233.69 million to procure six MQ-9A Reaper Extended Range (ER) vehicles and supporting technologies. USD 16.88 million has also been requested for the RDT&E of this platform.
  • Navy’s MQ-25 RDT&E program - USD 222.37 million - initial flights of an Engineering Development Model (EDM) controlled by the Unmanned Carrier Aviation (UCA) Mission Control System (UMCS) and the production and flight testing of the three remaining Engineering Development Models (EDMs) as well as continued development of the Ground Control Stations (GCS) software and hardware required for ship and shore installations.
  • MQ-4C Triton - USD 160.15 million - for support costs such as training equipment, ground support equipment, and the progression to Baseline Early Operational Capability. However, in last year’s request, the FY 2023 funding was expected to reach USD 624.87 million, and the cost to complete procurement of the MQ-4C was estimated to be about USD 6.45 billion.
  • Aerial Target Systems - USD 150.34 million - includes the procurement of 45 BQM-177A Subsonic Aerial Targets (SSATs), 14 GQM-163A Supersonic Sea Skimming Targets, and avionics upgrade kits for a range of target platforms.
