Dublin, September 29, 2025 (Globe Newswire) – Added the report, “Trends in the Anti-Drone Market Industry through 2035 and Global Forecast for 2035: Distribution by Anti-Drone Type, Component Type, Application Type, Technology Type, End User, and Geographical Area.” ResearchAndMarkets.com Provided.
The global anti-drone market size will grow from USD 270 billion in 2025 to USD 339.7 billion by 2035, with a CAGR of up to 2035 during the forecast period.
Affordable and easily available drones, recognized for their reliability across multiple industries, are increasingly creating security challenges. These drones are hacked by attackers, leading to security violations and exploitation of sensitive information. Anti-drone technology can distinguish between drones and other aviation entities, allowing you to make informed decisions about which targets to eliminate. Important benefits of these systems include improved information gathering on detected drones. Additionally, the anti-drone sector offers a variety of advanced products, including ground-based, handheld, and UAV-based systems.

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning has been important in increasing the demand for anti-drone systems in security, and in promoting faster detection and spiral responses. Additionally, cutting-edge features such as thermal imaging allow for seamless monitoring in all weather conditions, allowing RF scanners to identify connections between the drone and the operator.
With the projected time frame, global demand for anti-drone systems is expected to be driven by the development of advanced defense technologies such as anti-drone radar and thermal imaging solutions. Importantly, the incorporation of AI into various counter AV strategies to improve mitigation tactics and accuracy is to drive the market in the near future.
Anti-drone Market: Key Segments
Market share Anti-drone type
Estimates show that the ground-based segment currently captures a large portion of the market. This can be attributed to its rapid response capabilities and wide coverage area, making it particularly suitable for the defense industry.
Meanwhile, the UAV-based segment is expected to grow at a relatively high compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during the forecast period. This growth can link drones to unique features for searching, discovering, tracking and neutralizing in real time. Additionally, the ability to retrieve object information and display the RF spectrum in the graphical user interface (GUI) further drives the development of UAVs and its impact on security issues.
Market share Component Types
Estimates show that the hardware segment currently captures a large portion of the market. This is due to the rapid advancement of components such as radar sensors, infrared systems, and jammers. Additionally, the ability to meet strict performance standards while providing scalability, flexibility, and improved solutions for defense and law enforcement applications drives the performance of anti-drone technology.
Conversely, the software segment is projected to experience the highest growth rates throughout the forecast period. Factors such as the increased incorporation of artificial intelligence in anti-drone systems and the use of machine learning to improve the mitigation of drone threats are key factors in this growth.
Market share Application Type
Estimates show that the detection radar segment currently captures a large portion of the market. Additionally, this segment is expected to experience the highest combined annual growth rate (CAGR) during the forecast period. This growth may be attributed to its effectiveness in neutralizing drones after detection, classification, and identification. Additionally, the system can detect drone entries or exits within the facility.
Market share Types of technology
Estimates show that the anti-drone radar segment currently captures a large portion of the market. This can be attributed to the ability to accurately distinguish drones from other aerial objects. Furthermore, the incorporation of AI has improved its ability to mitigate drone threats, affecting emerging trends in counter AV technology.
However, the thermal imaging segment is expected to grow at a relatively high CAGR during the forecast period.
Market share End User
Estimates show that the defense and military segments now capture a large portion of the market. Furthermore, this segment is expected to experience a relatively high CAGR during the forecast period. This can be attributed to increased security requirements met by anti-drone systems. These systems are designed to detect and neutralize drones under all weather conditions, and their accuracy further enhanced anti-dron adoption in the defense and military sectors.
Market share by geographical region
Estimates show that North America is currently gaining a majority share of the market thanks to substantial military spending and continued advances in defensive capabilities within the region.
However, Asian markets are expected to grow at relatively high CAGRs during the forecast period due to increased demand for military uses and prevention solutions at airports in emerging economies such as India, China and Japan.
