AI In Modern Warfare Market Analysis

The AI In Modern Warfare Market size is estimated at USD 11.41 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 44.80 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 31.46% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

China is betting on AI to enhance its defense capabilities and is expected to become the world leader in this field by 2030.

  • The increasing demand for weapons of mass destruction is driving the market's growth. The growth in the testing of nuclear weapons by countries like North Korea is also contributing to the growth of these weapons. These weapons are radiological, biological, or chemical in nature; therefore, they are harmful.
  • The emergence of extremist organizations worldwide, such as ISIS, has led to an increased emphasis on the use of technology in the fields of counterterrorism and defense activities. Through continued experiments and studies, automated vehicles have been identified to act as force multipliers.
  • A major trend in artificial intelligence that is becoming popular in the military sector is technological improvement. Major companies in the market are focusing on developing cutting-edge technologies to bolster their positions. For example, the US Army's Tactical Intelligence Targeting Access Node (TITAN) program will receive next-generation machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities in July 2022 thanks to a collaboration between US aerospace and defense corporation Raytheon Technologies and C3 AI's software application. TITAN will use aerial and terrestrial sensors to ingest information from high altitudes and space to deliver targetable information and spatial awareness.
  • Although AI is a growing element in the military strategies of many countries, the European Union and China have been engaging in discussions about AI ethics. Many leading human rights organizations argue that the use of weapons, such as armed drones, will lead to an increase in civilian deaths and unlawful killings. Others are concerned that unregulated AI will lead to an international arms race.
  • The COVID-19 outbreak had a significant negative impact on the global economy. The government's lockdown caused a number of industries to shut down. Nevertheless, the use of artificial intelligence in combat was able to grow in these unheard-of circumstances. As government investment expanded to upgrade defense systems, both the demand and supply for military weaponry grew.
  • Although artificial intelligence in combat was successful commercially, a scarcity of raw materials supplied by suppliers due to disruptions in the supply chain caused a halt in total output. However, once the government relaxes the tight limitation, the market is grew and is expected to grow over the forecast period.
